瑞银称，尽管美国用户提前提价，Netflix有望超2026年业绩预期。

-- 瑞银证券周四在一份电子邮件报告中指出，由于提价提前生效的影响逐渐显现，Netflix (NFLX) 全年业绩可能超出其自身预期。 上个月，该公司提高了其在美国的各项服务价格，包括将含广告的标准套餐价格从每月 7.99 美元提高到 8.99 美元。不含广告的标准套餐价格上涨 2 美元至每月 19.99 美元，而高级套餐价格则从之前的 24.99 美元上涨至 26.99 美元。 瑞银分析师 John Hodulik 等撰文指出，这些提价为 2026 年的业绩预期提供了上行空间。 瑞银预计，2026 年 Netflix 的固定汇率收入增长率为 14%，毛利率为 32.6%，而此前的预期为收入增长 11% 至 13%，毛利率为 31.5%。 美国银行证券此前表示，Netflix最近一轮的提价凸显了这家流媒体巨头的定价权。 瑞银的报告指出，该公司可能会在其他主要市场推出更多提价措施，预计这将提升每位会员的平均收入。 Hodulik表示，含广告和不含广告套餐之间不断扩大的价格差距，以及与包括亚马逊(AMZN)在内的公司建立新的需求方平台关系，可能会使Netflix的广告收入在2026年翻一番。 Hodulik补充道：“尽管Netflix在美国电视总收视份额持续缓慢增长，但鉴于免费广告支持电视的增长，其流媒体收视份额仍然面临压力。” 今年2月，Netflix放弃了收购华纳兄弟探索频道(WBD)的计划，后者现在将被派拉蒙天空之舞(PSKY)收购。 “随着华纳兄弟的收购计划告吹，我们相信Netflix今年仍将受益于其强大的内容阵容，包括旗下收视率排名前20的剧集中的四部回归、《战争机器》和《撕裂》等新电影、不断增加的现场活动以及电子游戏业务的蓬勃发展，”霍杜利克表示。 周四，Netflix股价在最近的交易中上涨了2.5%。

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Hold Opinion On Shares Of Otis Worldwide Corporation

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We cut our 12-month target to $90 from $100 following Q1 earnings, valuing OTIS shares at 19.6x our 2027 EPS outlook of $4.58 (down from $4.70; 2026 EPS view updated to $4.18 from $4.25), a modest discount to industrial machinery peers' and OTIS's five-year forward multiple average given unclear timing of ongoing margin headwinds. Service margins were disappointing in Q1 (contracting 160 bps to 23%) amid higher labor and material costs that came in above pricing. Weakness in China has yet to stabilize, though as noted in the past, this represents a shrinking area of OTIS's portfolio and will have a more limited effect going forward. Overall, the latest quarter was more of the same (China weakness/New Equipment decline), though with the added concern of margin quality being pressured within Service - the core profit driver for OTIS overall. While efforts to shore up profitability are underway, we see timing of recovery being uncertain.

Saudi Shares Start Week Higher; US-Iran Peace Talks Canceled

The Tadawul All Share Index closed Sunday 0.11% higher as investors assessed the latest updates regarding the conflict in the Middle East.US President Donald Trump said on his Truth Social account that the Pakistani trip for his envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, was canceled. The announcement dimmed the hopes for peace talks between Iran and the US to happen any time soon.Further to this, Israel launched an attack in Lebanon on April 25. The strikes, which targeted Hezbollah, resulted in four casualties and facility damage in Southern Lebanon.Back at home, Rabigh Refining and Petrochemical (SASE:2380), d/b/a Petro Rabigh, and Thob Al Aseel (SASE:4012) posted their financial results for the three months ended March 31. Petro Rabigh emerged from a loss in the first quarter, while Thob Al Aseel logged a higher net profit and revenue."The reason for net profit reported during the current quarter compared to a net loss recorded in the same quarter of last year was primarily attributable to improved product margins resulting from stronger refined product pricing and higher sales volumes," Petro Rabigh said in its report.Petro Rabigh rose 10% at closing, while Thob Al Aseel ticked down 1.59%.Meanwhile, the local calendar will be mostly empty except for the kingdom's preliminary figures for its GDP growth rate for the first quarter and the M3 money supply and private bank lending data for March on Thursday.

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Rating On Shares Of United Rentals Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We lift our 12-month target price to $1,100 from $950 following a strong first quarter, valuing shares at 20.5x our 2027 EPS outlook of $54.28 (in line with previous estimate; 2026 EPS also in line). We believe a higher multiple is justified given URI's firming market leadership within an expanding rental equipment industry. A robust Q1 beat enabled URI to raise its full-year revenue guidance to $16.9B-$17.4B and adjusted EBITDA to $7.625B-$7.875B, citing momentum heading into a busy season. With leverage well below historical levels, we believe accretive M&A deals could serve as a potential catalyst for additional guidance increases. Margin compression has been a sticky issue for URI, but Q1 indicated that pricing may have turned around and that headwinds are starting to ease as quarterly results begin to lap when tariff-related inflation began to pick-up. We remain cautious on margins, though are encouraged by signs of stabilization. New project activity is likely supporting pricing trends, in our view.
