Netflix continues to attract ad dollars as it offers ‘holy trinity’ to advertisers

by July 19, 2025
by July 19, 2025

Netflix Inc (NASDAQ: NFLX) remains in focus after reporting a strong Q2 as the streamer’s ad-supported tier continued to gain traction, with impressions soaring nearly 400%.

In its second financial quarter, the mass media behemoth continued to invest in its proprietary ad stack and data-driven targeting capabilities, signalling a strategic pivot toward monetising its vast user base beyond subscriptions.

Still, Netflix stock is inching down today, reflecting broader market caution and premium valuation rather than fundamental weakness.

Why is Netflix becoming the advertisers’ favourite?

Advertisers are increasingly drawn to Netflix Inc because it delivers what DoubleVerify chief executive Mark Zagorski calls the “holy trinity” of advertising: quality, performance, and scale.

With its premium content, vast global reach, and growing sophistication in ad delivery, Netflix is pulling ad dollars not just from traditional linear TV but also from rival video platforms.

“They have so much data and they’ve been collecting data for years,” Zagorski noted, emphasising NFLX’s edge in performance-driven campaigns.

As cord-cutting accelerates, the Nasdaq-listed firm is well-positioned to capture a larger share of the shifting ad landscape.

Despite today’s price action, NFLX shares are up more than 50% versus their year-to-date low.

How does AI fit into NFLX’s ad strategy?

Speaking with CNBC this morning, Mark Zagorski also argued that artificial intelligence (AI) is playing a crucial role in Netflix’s advertising strategy.

AI is lowering the cost of high-quality ad production, enabling more advertisers, including smaller and regional players, to participate in connected TV (CTV).

Plus, it’s improving ad targeting and performance metrics as well.

On the flip side, artificial intelligence also introduced new challenges like ad fraud and bot-driven engagement, but DoubleVerify, a key advertising partner of NFLX, is leveraging AI itself to combat these risks, Zagorski added.

Overall, AI is contributing to boosting opportunities in the streamer’s ad ecosystem, and that’s already reflected in the Netflix stock price.

Is Netflix stock worth buying after Q2 earnings?

Netflix Inc strategic shift toward advertising, combined with a strong subscriber base and proprietary tech stack, makes it a compelling long-term play.

With advertising poised to become a significant revenue driver moving forward, and artificial intelligence tools enhancing both production and targeting, NFLX is evolving into a hybrid media-tech powerhouse.

However, investors should remain mindful of the premium valuation multiple tied to the Netflix shares at the time of writing.

That’s actually why Wall Street, despite a consensus “overweight” rating on the streaming giant, has an average price target of about $1,292 only on Netflix, which signals potential upside of less than 5.0%.

Moreover, NFLX shares don’t currently pay a dividend, either to appear any more appealing to those interested in setting up a new source of passive income for the long term.
