As for Netflix’s Q3 results, Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter (Outperform, the equivalent of Buy) is targeting subscriber growth of 1.45 million, higher than management’s forecast for 1.0 million new subscribers. Additionally, “we expect Netflix to maintain guidance for 2022 free cash flow of roughly $1 billion, with annual positive free cash flow going forward, and substantial free cash flow growth in 2023 vs. 2022,” Pachter says.
Overall, consensus estimates are for NFLX to report third-quarter earnings of $2.13 per share, down 33.2% year-over-year (YoY). Revenue is projected to land at $7.8 billion, up 4.8% over the year-ago figure.

Next week, all eyes will be on his electric vehicle company when it unveils its third-quarter earnings report after Wednesday’s close.
The company already reported lower-than-expected Q3 deliveries earlier this month, which sent shares tumbling nearly 9%. Still, Wells Fargo analyst Colin Langan (equal weight, the equivalent of Hold) forecasts “a slight Q3 beat as the benefit of pricing will likely be offset by forex headwinds.” The analyst adds that the third-quarter likely focuses on the Inflation Reduction Act, with Tesla being “the biggest beneficiary” of the legislation thanks to its expansion of tax credits for electric vehicles.
Analysts, on average, forecast earnings of $1.00 per share for Tesla’s third quarter, down 46.2% from Q3 2021. Revenue is projected to arrive at $22.1 billion (+61.3% YoY).

Consensus estimates are for AXP to unveil earnings of $2.42 per share (+6.6% YoY) and revenue of $13.5 billion (+28.3% YoY).
“We expect 3Q earnings per share for card issuers to be mostly below consensus expectations driven by more conservative reserve assumptions (due to weaker macro) and higher expenses,” says BofA Securities analyst Mihir Bhatia.
And for AXP specifically, Bhatia says it remains “the most controversial stock in our coverage” ahead of Q3 earnings. “The strong consumer franchise, high quality management and 2023 outlook of above normalized growth are key positives highlighted by bullish investors,” Bhatia says. On the other hand, bearish investors are worried that the fiscal 2023 outlook “could be pressured by a weakening macro backdrop and expense pressures,” the analyst adds. Still, Bhatia views the risk/reward as favorable for AXP stock, as evidenced by his Buy rating.
