  • Viacom Boosts Direct-To-Consumer Pitch with $340 Million Acquisition
    Publication date: 24 Jan 2019 Author: Kia Ling Teoh Senior Research Analyst, Advertising and Television Media Viacom boosts direct- to-consumer pitch with $340 million acquisition of Pluto TV Brought to you by Informa Tech Viacom boosts direct-to-consumer pitch with 1 $340 million acquisition of Pluto TV Viacom has revealed its intentions to go direct-to-consumer via the acquisition of ad-supported streaming service Pluto TV. The deal is worth a reported $340m and will see Pluto TV operate as an independent subsidiary of Viacom. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2019. Viacom is the owner of MTV, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon and Paramount Pictures. In 2017, it reported annual revenues of $13 billion from media networks and filmed entertainment businesses. Pluto TV was founded in 2013 and had received several rounds of funding from investors including broadcasters ProsiebenSat.1 and Scripps Networks in 2016. Our analysis The acquisition came at a time when Viacom’s media networks advertising revenues were under pressure. Nearly half of its media networks revenues are advertising and in the first nine months of 2018, advertising revenues dropped 3.5% year-on-year from $3.57 billion to $3.44 billion, largely due to lower linear impressions. The ad-supported streaming market is becoming intensely competitive, with each player trying to counter the influence of global giants Google and Facebook as advertising budgets continue to focus more on cross- border growth. Alongside Awesomeness TV, the youth-targeted video service Viacom acquired in July 2018, Pluto TV will complement Viacom’s advertising strategy.
