Netflix (NFLX) is arguably the premium streaming service in the world, making its stock extremely valuable to investors. The company saw its stock rise 15% in the last month, with its Q4 2024 earnings report outperforming expectations. Netflix’s numbers continue to rise, and in the last few years, its stock has been profitable for early investors. Compared to ten years ago, how high is its stock now, and what would a $10,000 investment from back then look like now?

The company’s stock traded at approximately $65.27 per share 10 years ago, per Yahoo Finance data. If you had invested $10,000, you could have bought roughly 153 shares. Currently, shares trade at $976.76, meaning your investment’s value could have grown to $149,649 from stock price appreciation. Netflix didn’t pay any dividends during these 10 years. With those numbers, if you had invested $10,000 in Netflix stock 10 years ago, you could have achieved a return of 1,396.49%.

Furthermore, Netflix has a consensus rating of “Buy” and a price target of $1,023 based on the ratings of 31 analysts. That target implies a nearly 5% potential upside from the current stock price. Following its positive Q4 2024 earnings, the stock rose to a new all-time high, breaching $1,000 for the first time. This month, the stock is eyeing even more gains, perhaps to reach $1,100.

Netflix stock may continue to perform well if the streaming giant decides to execute another stock split after hitting $1,000. The company previously split its stock in 2015 when it was trading at around $700 per share. Since then, it has gained nearly 900%. With shares breaking into the four-figure range, management may consider another split. 2015’s split caused the stock to outperform further, thus, the same may happen again this year if the split does occur.

With tens of millions of new subscribers and soaring revenue and profit, Netflix stock (NFLX) has surged to new highs. Buy signals are all around the company, making it one of the top options for investors in 2025 among entertainment stocks. Netflix is set to report its Q1 2025 earnings on April 17. Wall Street analysts expect the company to post EPS of $6.02, up from $5.28 last year.
