  • Arthur Laundy Can Lay Claim to Knocking His Over-Achieving Sons out of the News
    MARGIN CALL Tough call checking on Checkmate Research Illustration: Rod Clement ELI GREENBLAT The Australian 12:00AM June 26, 2018 A B C D K 1 Would the real Checkmate Research please stand up? Or at least please call? There ain’t nothing wrong with short selling or analysts highlighting short opportunities, in fact it can be a healthy clean- up role for the market in the same way that lions and leopards clear out the old and the sick from the herd, or vultures clean up the mess later. In the equities world it was short sellers who first declared the emperors at US energy giant Enron “had no clothes” — and were proved right — and the same could be said about Glaucus Research, which hunted down shaky sandalwood company Quintis. But in both cases at least the authors of the report put their name to it, had a website and an office anyone could contact. Not so much with Checkmate Research, which put out a detailed and scathing analysis of the Thomas Beregi-run financial services company Credit Corp last week that poked dozens of holes in the operations of the business and made a number of salacious claims, which won’t be repeated here. Thanks to cyberspace that report spread like wildfire and Credit Corp, left boxing at shadows and with no contact details for Checkmate Research, could only put out an ASX release denying the facts as its shares slumped 20 per cent. That’s $200 million stripped from its market cap. ASIC says it is “looking into it’’, but looking into what? There are no contact details for Checkmate Research and for all our regulators know it could be based on a teenager’s computer in a suburb of Lagos, Nigeria or maybe a computer in the Kremlin.

Positive ratings momentum combined with Nine’s focus on the 25-54 demographic is translating to improved revenue share in Free To Air (FTA) television. In Digital, 9Now is experiencing strong revenue and profit growth as the business continues to mature and the Digital Publishing business has reported accelerating growth in revenues and EBITDA, driven by video- led content and based around the key verticals of News, Sport, Entertainment and Lifestyle. Stan has passed through the milestone of 1 million subscribers and remains focussed on building a long term competitive and profitable SVOD business. During the year, Nine has challenged the paradigm – trialling new content, investing in new distribution platforms and creating new ways to engage with its audiences and advertisers. The progress has been tangible. RESULT IN BRIEF In FY18, NEC reported Group EBITDA of $257 million, up 25% on FY17, driven by a 6% increase in Group revenues. Nine increased its share of a Free To Air market which returned to growth over the year, underpinning the result. Importantly for the future of the business, Nine’s FTA growth was augmented by strong growth in 9Now and Digital Publishing.
