(NEW: Vorbörliche US course and other expert assessments)
Frankfurt (dpa-AfX)-The Netflix shares (Netflix) have given in pre-exchanging trade on Friday despite continuing well-running shops and increased sales forecast. However, the streaming providers’ papers have recently run excellently. The numbers classified by experts were not enough for the time being to drive the course up further. In pre-exchanging US trade, the share gave up almost 1.7 percent to $ 1,253 at noon.
The numbers published the previous evening were a little better than all important points than analysts expected. And: Many analysts also increased their price targets as a result of the quarterly results. The Netflix shares did not give this any further buoyancy. Among other things, retailers attributed this to the fact that some investors had put on the fact that Netflix exceeded expectations even more clearly. Especially when winning per share, the result was only slightly above the average analyst estimate.
JPMorgan expert Doug Muth was unsure in an initial assessment of how the investors react to the figures. The results and the outlook are quite solid in terms of the high expectations. However, he remains in his assessment that the stock needs a breather. It therefore classifies the paper with “neutral” with a price target increased according to the numbers to $ 1,300.
The share has been increasingly increased by almost 43 percent to around $ 1,274 since the end of 2024. This means that the paper is one of the best run in the Nasdaq 100. With an increase in just over 80 percent, the paper was one of the ten strongest Nasdaq-100 titles in 2024.
With a market capitalization of a little more than $ 540 billion, Netflix on the stock exchange is more worth more than the competitors Walt Disney (220 billion), Comcast (130) and Warner Bros. Discovery (Warner Bros Discovery) (32). The Netflix share was first climbed over the $ 1,000 mark in February in the course of a positive year. In April, the course due to the customs announcements by US President Donald Trump fell almost to $ 800. Since then it has been steadily uphill.
The stock left this intermediate low even faster than the setback around the turn of the year 2021/2022. At that time, the course had collapsed by around three quarters to $ 162 within half a year. In addition to a general weakness of the tech values, worries had burdened in terms of business development: subscription numbers had sometimes massively disappointed. All of this is now forgotten.
In the long term, paper is one of the most successful technology titles. In the past 20 years, the course climbed to around 550 times. In the NASDAQ 100, similarly high profits can only have Nvidia paper, which has benefited massively from the AI boom in recent years.
Netflix was brought to the stock exchange in 2002 with $ 15. Adjusted for stock splits, the price was just a little more than one dollar. Anyone who had invested $ 1,000 at the time now has a wealth of significantly more than one million dollars.
Despite the price gains in recent months, the majority of the experts still recommend the paper for sale. 42 of the 51 analysts recorded by the Bloomberg news agency still advise you to get started. However, the average price target with $ 1,280 is only slightly above the current level, even if many experts have increased their price targets according to the numbers.
Among other things, Jefferies analyst James Heaney raised his price target by $ 100 to $ 1,500, even if he described the quarterly result as solid and without surprises. He was impressed by the acceleration of growth in the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
UBS analyst John C. Hodulik sees Netflix as a long-term winner in the streaming competition and stock market-the quarterly results supported this. He increased his price target from 1,450 to $ 1,495 and left the classification to “Buy”. The raised outlook for the overall year already promises a strong transition to 2026.
Netflix also sees DZ-Bank expert Markus Leistner well positioned. The series and film pipeline is “well filled”, he wrote in his analysis. In the second quarter, the streaming king once benefited from its exclusive content and the cheaper, advertising-financed subscription variant, the income of which is supposed to double in 2025.
