ITV's profits are set to nearly treble, City forecasts show.

This is due to the Euro 2024 football tournament, the broadcaster's big-hitting dramas and less of an obligation to pump cash into its streaming service ITV X.

ITV is expected to report earnings of £133 million for the six months to the end of June.

This is up from £45 million the year before, when it was investing heavily in ITV X.

The FTSE 100 company has banked on the success of this advertising-funded platform, which can be viewed ad-free for a subscription.



ITV's shares have risen by 40 per cent over the past six months, partly driven by bid speculation, with Netflix viewed by some as one possible predator.

Ian Lance of Redwheel, the fund manager that runs the Temple Bar investment trust, has said that Netflix spends more than £11.5 billion a year on programming while ITV's market capitalisation is only £3.3 billion. On that basis 'Netflix could have ITV's entire back catalogue for a fraction of what they spend on programming'.

Thanks for the links loginname, hopefully all these positive reports turn out to be factual. I say that because holding ITV has been a disappointment.

A re-rating is long overdue, it's hard to believe that in June 2020 amid Covid with all the doom and gloom the ITV share price was 90p and actually higher than Friday's close which imo at 84p is still bombed out.

You guys need a reality check.

This can't possibly be true as for it to have reached a journalist would mean a huge number of people would know about it - and it would be uncontainable.

It would start with the board members of the bidder and the board members of ITV, it would quickly pull in legal consultants, advisers, solicitors, their admin staff, secretaries, assistants, yeah all under NDA agreements. Then one of them would leak it either directly to a friend / family member or directly to someone else in the industry or media.

It doesn't just go from board member straight to journalist right! There are so many other people in between - at this point the ITV share price would be compromised, the FCA would be investigating etc etc.

He probably just had too many potatoes at the Ritz on a client jolly, that's why he has wind.

ITV have had some admirable successes of late, the share price is up 50% or more since that 53p low. A decent report next week and we could see more rises.

I look toward ITV building on the current positive vibes and growing it's streaming and studio arms. As for bids, it is odds on that ITV will have been looked at by bigger players and imo is a target in the future.

Johnny Bluelynn, good for you building up your holding in ITV.

I have many private messages thanking me for posting positively on ITV. I post on what I hear and what I know to be real. The odd post reminding investors that the share price has been a bargain for a long time and to stay long and buy if you can afford to.

I no longer post on the other thread due to the scorn and derision I get from resident looney Stansmith who along with this thread's know all ex City tea boy and Beano financial expert MatthewR regularly downplay ITV and pour scorn on my positive posts.

It's great that so many on this thread are sitting on ITV stakes at numbers way south of Friday's 83.15p close. I advised that volumes in ITV would be indicative of the stealthy accumulation by Silchester and others holding lesser stakes under 5%.

ITV will seem a gift very soon although those who filled their boots at 60p or even less are quids in already and that is great. While these were 53p and the journey to today, the bashers were calling me names I can't repeat, when we see this fly soon they will be crying in private as they see the smart guys make money..

Stay long and Buy!

The record June advertising comment was released on July 4th (so is priced in)

LOL

I will give you a different example

Kier CEO had two years of reports delivering exactly what he forecast and the share price went down into the low 60s
The last set of reports were exactly in line with his forecasts and the share price took a flier running from 60p to 150p in a year. All they did was deliver to their midterm targets.

matthew I don't see much of a short term relationship between price and fundamentals. I would argue that disconnect can last years.

If efficient markets really existed and all actors traded on the basis of the information that is publicly available we wouldn't get the moves we do.

Buybacks are brilliant. Itv share price has risen 40% since buyback started. 'Nuff said 😁

The marketing and investor relations teams at ITV are abysmal. Their phones are probably all ex-directory.

tlobs..You're right, it's not good. A recent post on LSE about ITV doing much better than expected purported to come from someone employed at ITV marketing. If that turns out to be the case next month, why can't they tell the market now.

Other companies issue up to date statements all the time. The new guy at RR Tufan Erginbilgic informs shareholders almost weekly about the fortunes of RR. Having said that RR is a rocket and hard to believe was around 80p the same as ITV in March 2022 when McCall had her Liz Truss moment.

RR today 450p, ITV still down at a lowly 81p, the share price performance like the investor relations team is abysmal.

ITV’s valuation case (Updated!)

In November 2022 Investors Chronicle published a great article by financial writer Jemma Slingo - that quoted calculations by “Thomas Singlehurst, head of European media equity research at Citigroup”.

It was the first time I had learned that the sum of ITVs parts might be greater than the ITV Group valuation, based on the full year results 2022.

So now the full year results 2023 are available I thought it would be interesting to try and recreate the calculation and see if it still stands up.

There are a couple of caveats to this.

Firstly an EV Factor Benchmark of 13.8 was used based on FL Entertainment at the time. Looking for the current EV Factor for FL / Banijay throws up a range of numbers around 12/13 or so (I’m sure Thomas has access to much better data than we do!) - so I’m just going to stick with the prior number for a simple comparison.

Secondly the calculation mentions ‘subtracting the relevant debt’ which is unclear however it looks like 623m was deducted which coincidentally was the 2022 net debt - but for the whole ITV Group not just ITV Studios - so again for a simple comparison I will use the net debt figure in the 2023 results of 553m.

Ok so now it’s just a simple calculation. In the first row of the image linked below I show the method to arrive at the original articles 74p value for ITV Studios.

And in the second row using 2023 results we get 85p.

So, caveats aside, in summary I think the original articles premise still holds:

“The conglomerate discount is now so acute at ITV that you don’t just get the broadcast business for free – you actually get it at a negative value,” argued Thomas Singlehurst.

ITV
What it does: ITV is the UK’s largest commercial broadcaster and operates a vast global production division.

By Royston Wild. ITV’s (LSE:ITV) share price has been under sustained pressure as weak advertising revenues have smacked profits. The former FTSE 100 broadcaster is down 7% over the past year, meaning over the last five years it has lost a whopping 45% of its value.

As a result, the company now trades on a rock-bottom forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 8.5 times. This is bound to attract the attention of a number of suitors.

The jewel in ITV’s crown is its sprawling production arm. ITV Studios — which is home to global hits like Love Island and The Voice — now accounts for 51% of group revenues.

And sales here are growing ahead of the market, up 4% to record levels in 2023. In an age when streaming companies are crying out for new content, ITV’s production prowess could make it a hot takeover target. Might the likes of Netflix or Amazon soon come calling?

Royston Wild does not own shares in any of the shares mentioned.
