CFA Institute Research Challenge Hosted by Indian Association of Investment Professionals (IAIP) Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore CFA Institute Research Challenge Hosted by Indian Association of Investment Professionals (IAIP) Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore SUN TV NETWORK (Industry: Media & Entertainment, Sector: Broadcasting ) Date: Nov 4, 2013 Current Price: INR 423.25 (as on 31.10.13) Recommendation: BUY Exchange: NSE Ticker: SUNTV Upside: 21% Target Price: INR 511 Key Stock Statistics Make hay while the ‘SUN’ shines Price INR 423.25 Buy Recommendation - We issue a buy recommendation for SUN TV Network Face Value INR 5 with a target price of 511 which is an upside of 21% over the CMP. SUN TV looks certain to consolidate its position as the largest TV broadcasting company in South Shares Outstanding 394.08 mn India. Radio business will grow but is still pretty small compared to TV advertising Free Float Market Cap 41,393.7 mn and subscription. The company is also looking to revitalize the film distribution business. 52 wk range (INR) 311 - 494.90 Strong Revenue Stream - SUN TV has robust a revenue stream backed by a Beta 0.96 strong business model. Its subscription revenues will receive a major boost due to Free Float 25% implementation of digitization norms. Its DTH subscriber base is forecasted to grow from ~9 million presently to over 14 million by 2017 with ARPU rising by Avg Daily Volumes 129,107 (LTM) nearly 60% over the same period. SUN TV has hiked rates sufficiently to compen- sate for TRAI’s 10+2 min/hr ad cap regulation. Ad revenues are driven primarily 2013 Dividend Yield 2.43% by FMCG ad spending. Source: NSE, Bloomberg Solid Financials - SUN TV has sound financials with the top-line expected to grow to INR 34,443 million and bottom-line to INR 12,758 million by FY17. Profit mar- Performance vis-à-vis market gins will remain stable at the current levels. The company’s free cash flow is ex- pected to grow from INR 4,961 million in FY13 to INR 8,736 million in FY17. Preferable over Peers – The company’s P/E valuation discount is at an all time high compared to its closest peer (~37%). We expect this to narrow as SUN TV has more headroom for subscription revenue growth in both domestic and over- seas markets. IPL Business Needs to be Watched Out For - IPL business would exert a drag on the margins in the short run. The company made a loss of INR 300 million in FY13 from this segment. While the management expects this to breakeven by FY15, the revenues from this business needs to be watched out given its highly unpredictable nature. Political and Legal Overhang Remains - Promoters of SUN TV are affiliated to Shareholding Pattern a strong regional party and effects of this risk were manifested in FY12 due to issues with Arasu cable. The promoters’ involvement in the 2G case led to fall of Mar ‘12 Mar ‘13 Oct ‘13 16% in the stock price on 13 Jun ‘13. This continues to be a risk going forward as well. Although the fundamentals of the business are very strong, risk averse inves- Promoters 77% 77% 75% tors may not want to hold this stock.

But the company expects movie distribution business to pick up again 2014 onwards. Company’s major source of revenues is the sale of advertising. In FY 2013, advertising revenues contributed 60% to the total revenues.

Approximately, 50% of the advertising income comes from the national FMCG sector and another major portion from the local brands. SUN TV Network has re- cently more than doubled its ad rates. Although ad revenues grew 15% YoY in 1Q FY14, the growth might be affected with the implementation of TRAI’s 10+2 minutes/hour ad cap regulation.
