New York Times (NYT) Stock Analysis & Forecast
Sep 28 close
$64.17+0.34 (+0.5%)
Gekko Brief
AI summaryNYT shares declined this week after a shareholder lawsuit was filed alleging bias in the company's coverage of the Israel-Hamas war, founded on claims from an internal whistleblower about institutional bias against Israel and Jewish employees. The company also declared its regular quarterly dividend, payable 22 October 2026 to shareholders of record as of 7 October 2026, and comparative coverage this week weighed NYT against MediaCo on valuation and analyst metrics.
The stock closed at $64.17, up 0.5%, but remains below both its 50-day average of $68.47 and 200-day average of $73.75, with the 50-day below the 200-day. Over the past month shares are down 5.8%, and down 22.5% over six months, though still up 11% over the past year. The GekkoIndex reading of 65 places NYT in the Accumulation zone, and the price sits 7.9% below Gekko Fair Value of $69.65.
Earnings are next scheduled for 4 November 2026, 36 days out, before the open, falling outside a typical 20-trading-day holding window; the prior report on 5 August produced a 14.3% reaction despite an EPS beat. Over the last 30 days there has been one unusual options signal, with call premium of $732,627 and no put premium recorded. Consensus among 8 analysts stands at 5 buy and 3 hold ratings with a $79 target. Seasonality over 5 years shows the next 20 trading days averaging a 1.8% return, positive in 3 of those years.

Last earnings call, Aug 5, 2026 AI summary
- What they said
- The New York Times Company reported a strong Q2 2026 with consolidated revenues up 11% and AOP up 16%. Digital-only subscription revenue rose 16.4% (driven by +280k net new digital subscribers and 3.1% digital-only ARPU growth), total subscription revenues increased ~11.7% to $538M, digital advertising grew 20.7% to $114M and outperformed guidance, and affiliate/licensing/other rose ~7% to $75.5M. Management highlighted scaling video production (thousands of new videos per quarter, new Shows tab), app upgrades, and investments in journalism and product to reduce reliance on platform traffic. Costs ran above prior guidance mainly due to higher variable compensation tied to outperformance, elevated sales and marketing (promo and video-related/ad COGS), and investments in new ad sales teams. Management expressed confidence in the strategy and long-term opportunities while acknowledging headwinds from reduced platform traffic, variable ad comps, and some lumpiness in licensing/affiliate revenue.
- Guidance
- Management provided Q3 outlook references: digital subscription revenue guide referenced in discussion around a 12%–15% growth range for digital subscription revenue in Q3 (as discussed by management and in Q&A). Advertising guidance referenced mid- to high-teens growth for Q3 (mentioned in Q&A). Management said consolidated revenues/subscriptions were within quarterly guidance ranges but did not provide a detailed multi-quarter financial model on the call.
- Risks flagged
- Management highlighted ongoing headwinds from reduced traffic from major platforms and a rapidly changing information ecosystem, quarter-to-quarter variability in advertising demand, lumpiness in affiliate, licensing and other revenues, cohort/mix impacts from prior product paywalling, and elevated sales & marketing and staffing costs tied to scaling video and new ad sales teams.
