Zee Media Corporation

Changing structures could lead to valuation upswing

Zee media has over 10 regional channels at nascent stage with two main revenue streams coming from ZEE Business and ZEE News.

Now the company has decided to merge Essel Holdings Pvt. ltd which holds DNA (Daily News and Analysis Newspaper). Court meeting on 21st November for merging the company with self so with merger getting approved there will be valuation catch up

Market Cap to Revenue multiple for all the media companies is anywhere between 2 to 2.5 times. With DNA being included in the ZEE Media group this could lead to valuation upswing

Taking a call on Zee News, if you see the entire business channel, we think Rs 300 crore of market cap is relatively undervalued, given that the revenues are close to Rs 300+ crore. They also operate few other channels in the local geographies through 24 Ghanta and Zee Gantalu , Zee Chattisgarh, Rajasthan UP and others; in total approximately 8-10 channels. Also, they provide content material to Zee Ltd for USA, UK, Euro area and Saudi Arab.

We feel media, as a space, is definitely going to be a promising bet where we have other top picks, given that there is a lot of re-rating that will happen. Even stocks, where there is a strong management involved, will definitely get re-rated in the space. Thus, parking a small fund in this particular stock would make a lot of sense.

ZEE Media consolidate revenue for FY 14 is estimated at 350 crores against market cap of 300 crores. So the valuation multiple can increase the market capitalization. Estimating revenue of 400 crore for FY 15 and multiple to sales at 1.5 times. We estimate target price of 22 Rs on the stock.
