What the data says
An overview of the public data behind NFLX.
NFLX last closed at $69.85, about 7% above its 52-week low of $65.08 and about 44% below its 52-week high of $124.86. The high is nearly double the low, so the stock has moved across a wide band over the past year. It now trades near the bottom of that band.
At a market capitalization of about $286 billion, the shares trade at 21.6 times trailing earnings and 18.1 times forward earnings. The lower forward figure means analysts' earnings estimates for the coming year are above the trailing number. The business is highly profitable, with a profit margin of about 28%, and revenue grew 13.4%. Price-to-book is about 9.5, meaning the market values the company well above its net assets. Netflix pays no dividend. Its beta of 1.61 means the stock has tended to move more sharply than the overall market, in both directions.
Recent news has centered on the company itself, mostly its third-quarter results reported on October 20. Coverage highlighted revenue growth of 12%, credited to pricing power. It also noted a $300 million cut to the company's ad revenue forecast that came alongside an earnings beat. The other headlines were about the broader market, including falling stock futures, weak housing data and developments in AI, rather than about Netflix or the entertainment sector.
