And, the company has developed a business model based on selling rights for successful content and using a one-source, multi-use (OSMU) plan that localizes content to reflect cultural and social preferences. In fact, CJ E&M is advancing into China through a JV with a local player, and this has reinforced IP competitiveness and enhanced the hit ratio. Unlike production, CJ E&M’s IP are based on several years of expertise and this should help sustain its competitive position. By focusing on localization, the company is able to diversify its local content and quality, and this should limit the negative effects from regulatory pressure related to geopolitical concerns. Reinforced capacity to produce competitive content: In May 2016, CJ E&M split its drama production division and established a subsidiary, Studio Dragon. This move was aimed at reinforcing its capacity to produce content that could appeal to global markets. One of Studio Dragon’s subsidiaries is Hwa & Dam Pictures, which manages Eun-sook Kim, the writer of popular TV shows, including Descendants of the Sun . Another subsidiary, Culture Depot, is a local agency that manages Ji-eun Park, the writer for the TV series My Love From the Star . Going forward, media earnings should pick up, on: 1) better media sales backed by talented writers, 2) stronger results from expanding the distribution of in-house content to terrestrial and other channels, and 3) a growing contribution from overseas markets. TV broadcast sales recovery ramping up: While sales have been growing more rapidly than the market backed by higher ad unit prices at the broadcasting division, Minha Choi earnings growth has stalled due to higher amortization costs following a change in 822-3276-6260 the accounting of copyrights for TV shows. However, we forecast 3Q16 [email protected] broadcasting OP will grow 23% YoY, 4Q16 OP 73% YoY and 2017 OP 51% YoY backed by lower amortization costs. 1 Media & Leisure Figure 1.
