Analyst Comments
“We see Disney on the short list of global streaming majors. Despite significant continued upward earnings revisions, shares have lagged as net adds expectations ran ahead of content deliveries. As the content pipeline builds into ’22 and ’23, core net adds should accelerate, driving shares,” noted Benjamin Swinburne, equity analyst at Morgan Stanley.
“Disney is building content assets that enable it to take advantage of the significant direct-to-consumer streaming opportunity ahead. Disney’s underlying IP remains best-in-class, supporting long term content monetization opportunities. During this period of FCF pressure from Parks closures, ESPN’s FCF generation is key to driving down leverage. Historical cycles suggest a potential return to above prior peak US Parks revenues in FY23.”

High Volatility and Multiple Headwinds
The streaming provider has been hit with multiple headwinds since reversing at February resistance in July, dropping more than 40%, led by the end of COVID lockdowns and resumption of pre-pandemic activities in many countries. In addition, Amazon.com Inc. $Amazon (AMZN.US)$ (AMZN) has launched its own smart TV brand while Apple Inc.’s $Apple (AAPL.US)$ (AAPL) new iOS 14 ad-tracking options may also impact revenue driven by Roku’s ad-supported platform.
BofA Securities analyst Ruplu Bhattacharya defended the stock after the summer collapse, noting that “while Roku’s active accounts in F2Q were marginally lower than Street (51.1mn vs. Street 51.8mn), we see this as impacted from transitory supply chain issues, and reopening headwinds, vs. market share loss. Investor expectations have been reset in the near term, in our opinion. Moreover, despite reopenings, Roku’s lead in streaming viewership remained intact in C2Q21.”
