NDTV Profit’s special research section collates quality and in-depth equity and economy research reports from across India’s top brokerages, asset managers and research agencies. These reports offer NDTV Profit’s subscribers an opportunity to expand their understanding of companies, sectors and the economy.

Motilal Oswal Report

Zee Entertainment Enterprise Ltd.’s revenue declined 3% YoY, led by continued weakness in ad spending within the Fmcg segment and impact of cricket world cup led to Ebitda decline of 43% YoY (in-line). Adjusted profit after tax (excl. extraordinary items) declined 30% YoY to Rs 924 million.

We have revised down our Ebitda/PAT estimates for FY25 by 8%/11%, on account of slower recovery within the ad revenues and higher opex.

With the merger processes now being called off, the company’s growth plans going ahead would remain a key monitorable.

We reiterate our 'Neutral' stance on the stock with the target price of Rs 200/share.
