According to TheFly, Wedbush trimmed the price target on Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) to $115 from $140 and maintained an ‘Outperform’ rating on January 15. The firm highlights the stock’s decline since the company reported disappointing Q3 results and Q4 guidance, with sentiment further weighed down by concerns related to the pending Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) acquisition. This follows many quarters of strong results. That said, the stock has witnessed a dip of around 29% over the last six months.

Although execution risks still linger, Wedbush believes Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) is poised for significant growth in global advertising, and that should not be ignored. Through three core strategies: improving ad interactivity, growing ad partnerships, and enhancing purchasing capabilities, the company is poised to accelerate ad revenue contribution for the upcoming years, the firm says.

On the same day, Monness, Crespi, Hardt & Co. reaffirmed a ‘Neutral’ rating on Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) ahead of its fourth-quarter 2025 earnings report set for January 20. The firm projects a 17% YoY revenue growth for Q4, in line with its third-quarter results.
