瑞银称,尽管美国用户提前提价,Netflix有望超2026年业绩预期。

By

-- 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%。

Crude Oil Prices Rise on Stalled U.S.-Iran Peace Talks

Crude oil prices rose on Monday as talks to end the war between the U.S. and Iran remain frozen and flows through the crucial Strait of Hormuz continue to be disrupted.Brent crude at last look gained 2.7% to US$108.17/barrel and West Texas Intermediate crude climbed 2.4% to $96.63/barrel. The U.S. and Iran appear to still be far apart on issues including Iran's nuclear ambitions and the reopening of the strait, Reuters said in a Monday report."The diplomatic stand-off means that every day 10-13 million barrels of oil fail to get to the international market, worsening an already tight oil balance. Therefore, there is only one direction for oil prices to go," Reuters quoted PVM Oil Associates analyst Tamas Varga as saying.Goldman Sachs raised its fourth-quarter oil price forecasts to $90/barrel for Brent and $83/barrel for WTI, citing reduced output from the Middle East, the report said.

Japan Resorts to More Coal, Nuclear During Energy Crisis Sidelines Renewables, Says IEEFA

Japan is leaning on higher nuclear output and ramping up use of coal in power generation as contingency measures in the face of the global energy crisis, but these measures are simultaneously smothering renewables, the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis said on Monday.Temporary increased use of coal was decided upon to reduce the need for now-scarce LNG while the restart of some nuclear power plants is also providing additional resilience to supply shocks which have hit Asian nations hardest.IEEFA said this risks displacing domestic renewable energy which can supply just as much energy security but lower cost and it could also increase curtailment and undermine investment in more renewables, up-ending progress on decarbonization.Most of Japan's coal imports, about 71%, come from Australia, making it a safe option that reduces exposure to disrupted Middle Eastern logistics, the IEEFA report noted.But a shortage of diesel for plant operations at J-Power's Matsuura 2 gigawatt coal-fired power station slashed its output by 50% while the JFE Steel Fukuyama facility was halted over a shortage of heavy oil, underscoring that coal is not fully detached from oil and gas's geopolitical risk.Japan typically imports 4 million tons of LNG that pass through the Strait of Hormuz each year, representing about 6% of its total imports.As of March, 15 of Japan's 36 nuclear reactors were operating, as that sector recovers from the multiple impacts of the Fukushima disaster.They generate a combined 37 GW. Bringing the remainder online could cut Japan's LNG needs by 12.5 million tonnes, IEEFA said. Regulatory changes in early April were introduced, facilitating more restarts.Backing up its argument that more coal and nuclear, both less flexible power sources, could increase curtailment of renewables, IEEFA said that each nuclear restart in Japan has been followed by a reduction in renewables generation.Curtailments in Japan have risen to 1.9 terrawatt hours by 2023, up from 100 GWh in 2018. In the first half of 2025, curtailments were faster still at 1.7 terrawatt hours for a six-month period.The fact that output from coal and nuclear can not rapidly be increased or slowed means it can be difficult to make room for renewable supply on the grid when its output rises.IEEFA said that limitations in Japan's grid infrastructure is an additional constraint that limits absorption of renewable power and led to a situation in March where it curtailed renewables while importing power from abroad.IEEFA suggests that the addition of battery storage to the grid could go some way to boosting its flexibility.Curtailment of renewables output has another inherent problem in that it leads to a less favourable economic case for later additions of zero carbon generation capacity, the report said, all the more so because Japan does not compensate renewables suppliers for curtailments, a practice common in Europe.Developers are adding battery storage as a work-around to that, securing contracts that remunerate battery-discharged electricity instead of directly generated then consumed electricity.The addition of batteries adds to project costs however at a time when investor interest has yet to turn into large scale deployment, with erosion of revenue support measures a further deterrent, IEEFA said.
