McCall has been CEO at ITV for six long years to date, during that time the share price has fallen by at least half and more if you care to use real figures linked to inflation.

They call her Dame Woke for a reason, she is an elitist and she is as woke (for want of a better word) as most of the writers who work at her old paper 'the Guardian' where it's cool to look down on those prolls who live in the real world.

I reckon her resignation would put 10p on the share price in a heartbeat and with some luck to they could replace her with someone with the acumen needed to run a media company that competes with CEO's who may only be across the pond but live in a different universe to Dame Woke!

According to those who believe that ITV are a future takeover target. The share buyback may be a defence tactic against a hostile bid.

The main advantages of share buyback is a boost to shareholders as it reduces the amount of shares in the company boosting the share price for existing holders. It is an efficient use of cash reserves. It is also protection against a hostile takeover if indeed this BoD believes ITV are vulnerable.

My concern with this BoD is their lack of any dynamism, they do nothing to push the company. Dame McCall has been awful, her persona comes across as a posh old bird too snooty to worry about the plebs.

ITV have made a bit of headway with the studios and ITVx but she says nothing in the way a 2024 CEO should by being high profile and telling all ITV is terrific. But she is what she is, a dinosaur who got lucky at EasyJet and has very little to offer a company competing with the likes of Netflix, Disney, Amazon and Apple

Hey there Goldfinger - I think we have similar views and info about the US side of things.

Would you agree that if ITV Studios is the ‘jewel in the crown’ of ITV Group then at a lower level - ITV Studios US is the ‘jewel in the crown’ of ITV Studios.

I think some over here don’t give a damn about some of the local offices - ITV Studios Australia anyone?!

But ITV Studios US is wanted. And will be gotten, one way or another.

No ramping cross my heart!

Just really excited about ITV but mainly ITV Studios US - this is my focus.

Will you all play nice if I stick to facts?

How about this:

statista.com/statistics/298327/itv-studios-revenue-by-source-uk/

Just focusing on ITV Studios revenue by source its pretty obvious that the US part is growing strongly from the 2020 Covid era base.

200m, 300m, 400m before a slight dip in 2023. The full impact from the Hollywood strike is still TBC but the facts are clear - ITV Studios US is going to be an increasing contributor to global ITV Studios revenue.

I called out the release of Franklin yesterday, which was a joint production with Apple Studios by the way (these guys work great together…) because it is not impossible to think that in a few years the ITV Studios US revenue could eclipse ITV Studios UK (which is still generating solid income).

You have to think where all this future revenue is going to flow. Yeah dividends you got it. Either regular or special (which ITV does have a history of using if you look back at the payments last 10 years or so).

We all own an asset with an in demand product and an increasing income stream. Hang on to it with all your strength!
That’s why this is a HODL.

To the Moon!
Hans

Why is there so much interest from overseas buyers in British companies?

The UK stock market is lowly valued and the pound is cheap so if you’re an overseas buyer, you’re buying a cheap company in a cheap currency. The UK is trading at a 40% discount to global equities.

Do you expect any other companies in your portfolio to get approached?

ITV is an obvious takeover target. It runs the second largest studios business in the world and more than 50% of its profits come from outside the UK.

Royston , I’ve thought about it and I’ll cede a little ground. There are instances where a credit agency report could move a share price. For example for a very heavily indebted company or indeed zombie company. Getting a clean bill of health (or not) could clearly move a distressed share price and relieve a bear case of breaching banking covenants, as an example.
However , ITV has no significant debt and certainly not a problem, I think its debt coverage is something like one times earnings so very comfortable. Therefore a credit agency report into its debt position is still irrelevant Im afraid.

Royston. Share prices are down to supply and demand. The more people that are buying the higher the share price Lots of people were buying DJT yesterday and It went up 50% as that was what was required to tempt holders to sell to meet the buying demand.
Events, news and sentiment drive buying and selling so alter the supply and demand. How does ITV hoovering up a million shares a day not reduce the ‘supply’ to regular investors and increase the ‘demand’. They might not be cancelling the shares at this time but there’s still millions less shares available on the market each week. I simply cannot fathom how that doesn’t have an impact on the share price. And it seems it is!
I obviously understand the long term benefit of less shares in circulation meaning each individual share owned being a greater overall stake but before that can make a significant difference we have the daily trading of shares affecting the share price with ITV buying a huge amount of shares. If the buy back wasn’t happening, the demand would be less and the share price would likely be drifting lower unless events news and sentiment created other buyers. What am I missing?

Nice boost from Shore Capital who say ITV share price is worth at least 60% more than 72p....that would be 116p. Can't be bad!

netcurtains, Slater5 is about right that ITV are now back to flat lining...it may not be normal to you that they are buying back shares, but it now old news. Sadly you think this 300 million share buyback has more legs, isn't that 25% rise a great bonus.

Go and look at the Lloyds £2 billion share buyback, the bloody share price fell from 45p to 40p, buybacks have an effect when announced, traders take their profits and then it's back to the same old..albeit the share price is higher!

If ITV's buyback is to bolster the sp, then great, it's 25% higher which has put around 500 million on the Mkt Cap.
