Netflix 's valuation may not be able to withstand falling growth expectations, according to Wolfe Research.
Analyst Peter Supino downgraded the streaming service to peer perform from outperform.
However, he said he has growing concerns about the company's 2024-2025 growth forecasts.
"If future growth falls short, we doubt that NFLX's 50% P/E and 70% EV/EBITDA premium to the S & P would hold up," Supino said in a Friday note.
"At today's valuation, Netflix needs to show a virtuous cycle of content, engagement, subs & pricing for shares to appreciate.
