    www.cablefax.com, Published by Access Intelligence, LLC, Tel: 301-354-2101 4 Pages Today CableFAX DailyTM Friday — November 8, 2013 What the Industry Reads First Volume 24 / No. 218 AMC Numbers: Shares Fall Despite Shows’ Strong Performance You know what they say about being at the top? It’s just one misstep to the bottom. And so with AMC drawing record ratings for “The Walking Dead” and critical acclaim for its just-wrapped “Breaking Bad,” the question top of mind is can it keep the momentum going—especially given everyone else’s recent push into scripted shows. AMC Networks CEO Josh Sapan acknowledged during Thurs’ earnings call that new entrants are, “in theory,” doing programs similar to AMC. “The networks are doing some shows that look more like cable dramas. SVOD services are themselves doing scripted dramas with some success,” he said. “I think the full implications of that over time are not yet entirely under- stood.” But given the successes beyond AMC (he cited Sundance’s “Rectify”), he sees a significant and increased appetite for scripted drama. Of course, all that programming costs money, and increased expenses in 3Q offset gains from AMC’s popular programming. AMCN shares closed down nearly 6% Thurs as its 3Q profit of $58.1mln for the Q (up nearly 59% YOY) fell short of Wall Street expectations. Revenue grew 19% to $395mln. Bernstein Research said it and fellow bulls will point to the revenue line, while bears will point to AMCN’s earnings line and future growth, with the results unable to put to rest controversy in the stock.
