Entertainment and media deals in UK set to top £5bn


DEALS in the UK's media and entertainment sector will outstrip the £5 billion mark this year, a report out today has predicted.

Research by accounting giant Ernst & Young showed that although the value of completed deals in the sector slumped 64 per cent in the third quarter, £5bn was a realistic end of year target.


The major driving force behind the upbeat outlook came in the third quarter from advertising and marketing services, the report found, accounting for 51 per cent of all completed UK media and entertainment deals.

Overall, the area represented 36 per cent of deals in the sector for the first three quarters.

Alan Flitcroft, Ernst & Young media and entertainment partner, said: "Despite a number of deals in the advertising and marketing services sector over the last 12 months, there is still room for more consolidation. The sector is likely to continue to see investment well into next year, as firms strengthen their portfolios and recruit talent.

"Deal value will easily reach the £5bn mark by the end of the year. Already the fourth quarter has seen the sale of the Times Education Supplement (£235m) and an acquisition of Aegis this year would push the value well over £5bn."

He added: "Valuable assets are commanding premium prices and this trend will continue into 2006, as M&E companies strive to win the convergence battle against the telecoms and technology sectors for ownership and distribution rights to content."

Mozza,

I was reading about him in the Sunday Newspapers, quite frankly I do not know, indeed a shrewd man but is he the only player in the ring?

Again I do not know, but there was an article about apparently £5 billion of funds chasing M & A in the Media Sector posted higher up thread.

LSE:AGS has a habit I have said earlier of strong 4 day rises and as us Eliott Wave types expect at least two waves to be equal by time and distance I think LSE:AGS is going to move this week.

The reasons why it moves quite frankly are irrelevant to me, but with the amount of Corporate takeover activity in the LSE Recently it really does strike me where there are big fees activity will turn up in the October/November period.

All IMHO, NAG, DYOR etc

Cheers

Ash:)

Mr James.....Have just gone long with a tight stop loss.

Sorrell is considered a shrew man. Would he pay more than the 140 that Publics had apparently shied away from!

[mr ashley james] 31/10/2005 09:07

Mozza, personally think that even if wave I extends, now 38.20% FR to 125.00p next move is to minimum 127.75p/128.00p or perhaps 130.75p/131.00p

[mozza0508] 31/10/2005 08:51

Mr James ..... Thanks for your input. I have stopped investing in shares since dot com years and now trades short term only whether up or down hence the interests in AGS.

My gut feeling is the share price will edge up steadily but still on the sideline at present.

[mr ashley james] 31/10/2005 08:23

127.75p/128.00p, 130.75p/131.00p, 135.00p/135.75p,143.25p/143.50p

[mr ashley james] 31/10/2005 08:03

mozza, starting to break up now

[mozza0508] 30/10/2005 10:47

Mr Ashley James......It 's apparent you are a AGS watcher and your contributions are much appreciated.

I am inclined to think that Sorrell of WPP will try to break up AGS if he could agree with Bollore. What's your views and how do you see share price movement in run up to 25 Nov deadline?
