Faster-than-expected growth in value-added services holds an upside potential of 10% for Akamai. Our base case projects the company’s media content delivery revenue at just over $1 billion for the current year with revenue per Akamai media customer increasing at a compound annual growth rate of 5% between 2015 and 2022.

For the upside case, we project a faster (9%) increase in revenue per Akamai media customer for the same period, which brings our estimate for the media content delivery revenues to $1.2 billion for 2016. With the acquisitions of Prolexic, Cotendo, and Blaze, Akamai has been able to bolster its value-added portfolio and avoid pricing pressure. By leveraging this, the company can command better pricing for its service going forward.
