Underweight

$0.16

0%

Morgan Stanley's Underweight rating for Seven West Media reflects concerns around both structural audience declines and the negative cyclical advertising impacts on the free-to-air TV and print assets. It's felt consensus forecasts remain too optimistic.

Not only is TV operating leverage high, but this is further amplified by the debt load with net debt on the rise, explain the analysts.

The broker also suggests the underrated risk of the long-term commitment for programming rights set against consistently falling revenue and earnings power of the business.

The target falls to 16c from 22. Industry view: Attractive.

FORECAST
Morgan Stanley forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 0.00 cents and EPS of 4.00 cents.
Morgan Stanley forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 0.00 cents and EPS of 4.00 cents.
