Spotify Delivers Another Hit! Stock Jumps 18%
Key Points
Spotify's member growth continued despite recent price increases.
Margin expansion continued to help the bottom line.
Management expects more price increases in 2026.
Spotify (NYSE: SPOT) stock jumped 18% today after another strong quarter. Revenue growth was solid, but user numbers were up, and price hikes didn't seem to hurt momentum.
Management said the company's pricing power continues to improve and doesn't expect price hikes in January to hurt the business in the long term. For now, investors are overlooking Spotify's high valuation and giving credit to improving margins and strong free cash flow from a company many thought couldn't squeeze out a profit.
