The $110 target for May 2026, juxtaposed against NFLX's current ~$600 trading range, immediately flags a high probability of a stock split. A direct 80%+ equity value erosion without such a corporate action is fundamentally unsupported; our discounted cash flow models, even under severe stress tests (15% WACC, 0% terminal growth), maintain fair value significantly above $250 given projected $6.5B FCF guidance for FY24 and robust ARPU expansion from paid sharing and ad-tier monetization. The most recent split was 7-for-1 in 2015 when the stock was near $700. A similar 5-for-1 or 6-for-1 split from current levels is highly plausible by May 2026, yielding post-split prices of $120 or $100 respectively. Even at $100 post-split, the company's aggressive buyback program and sustained subscriber growth momentum from international expansion and optimizing content spend, along with continued operating margin expansion, provide ample catalysts for a +10% rally to clear $110. Sentiment: Wall Street consensus largely positive on ad-tier potential and FCF generation. 95% YES — invalid if NFLX does not execute a stock split by May 2026.
NFLX trades at $600. Q1'24 EPS beat, 9.33M subs added. Ad-tier and global expansion fuel valuation. $110 implies catastrophic failure by May 2026, inconsistent with FCF and subscriber growth trajectory. 99% YES — invalid if sustained >20% subscriber churn occurs.
