NFLX stock fell 6% following Q2 results, missing revenue guidance and projecting weaker growth for the current quarter.
Netflix shares declined 6% after its July 16 earnings report, reversing expectations of a rebound. The stock had traded at 24 times earnings, a historical low, but failed to recover despite low market expectations.
Revenue for Q2 came in below Netflix’s earlier guidance, and the company projected 11.7% top-line growth for the current quarter, its weakest in recent periods. The stock is down over 40% in the past year and nearly 50% from its June 2023 peak.
Investor sentiment remains cautious as the streaming giant faces slowing growth and heightened competition in the sector.
