Citi lowered its price target on Netflix to $100 from $115 — still implying a 32% upside from Wednesday’s close — while maintaining its buy rating on the streaming giant.
Key Highlights
- New price target: $100 (down from $115), implying 32% upside
- Analyst Jason Basinet cited four pressure points: tepid viewership, an M&A overhang, a perceived lack of catalysts, and investor enthusiasm rotating toward AI/semiconductor stocks
- Management has hinted at new pricing tiers, seen as a potential positive catalyst for revenue growth
- Citi remains positive that M&A could improve Netflix’s content catalogue and engagement
Why It Matters
The price target cut reflects a broader rotation of investor enthusiasm away from mega-cap hyperscalers and streaming names toward AI infrastructure and semiconductor plays, even as Netflix’s core business fundamentals remain intact.
What to Watch
Investors are watching for details on Netflix’s rumored new pricing tiers and any concrete M&A moves that could reshape its content strategy.
