Price Performance
Growth Potential
- Very attractive TAM of 750m subscribers (excluding China) with management targeting 410m subscribers by 2030 (vs ~300m currently).

- New monetization levers including advertising tier (introduced 2022 open a multi-billion-dollar revenue opportunity) and password sharing crackdown (has successfully converted freeloaders into paying users, boosting revenue without large content cost increases).
- Optionality beyond streaming with gaming initiatives and IP licensing/merchandising helping deepen engagement and unlock incremental revenue.

Key Risks
- High valuation and trading multiples which are susceptible to de-rating should growth rates miss expectations.
- Escalation of intense competition and streaming wars, especially with Walt Disney (DIS) who own a strong content portfolio covering Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and National Geographic brands and sports streaming service ESPN+. DIS also holds a majority stake in Hulu, which is an online streaming service provider.
- Execution risks around content creation versus content distribution.
- Increasing competition based on price or exclusive content contracts.
- Investment into original content creation fails to live up to the success of exclusive contract deals of existing content.
- Bandwidth issues in emerging economies posing difficulties in penetrating these markets.
- The long-term and fixed cost nature of content commitments hinder NFLX’s operating flexibility.
