Prabhudas Lilladher's research report on Entertainment Network (India)
We cut our FY23/FY24 EBITDA estimates by 5%/6% respectively as yields which are at ~33% discount to pre-COVID levels may take time to recover. However, ad-volumes have shown signs of improvement (capacity utilization in legacy/batch-1/batch-2 stations stood at 99.4%/40.5%/30.9% respectively) which is encouraging. While there are headwinds in radio segment as price recovery is a long drawn process, management sounded upbeat on the core solutions & digital business which is expected to form ~50% of the top-line in FY25. As a step to diversify, Mirchi digital app debuted in international markets and India launch is on the anvil soon. While ENIL’s effort to diversify out of core radio business (low growth market) is commendable we await green shoots on delivery front.
Outlook
Consequently, we maintain HOLD rating on the stock with a TP of Rs201 (earlier Rs197). Our TP is based on 50% weight to EV/EBITDA methodology with per share value of Rs105 (5x FY24E EBITDA) and 50% weight to DCF approach with per share value of Rs96.
