HT Media reported Q1 FY26 total revenue of INR 451 crore, up 6% year-on-year, with losses narrowing 59% to INR 11 crore (still negative). The Print business drove results with ad revenue of INR 255 crore (+17% YoY), helped by a low base from last year's election code of conduct. English ad revenue grew 19% YoY to INR 140 crore, while Hindi grew 14% to INR 116 crore. Digital revenue grew 21% YoY to INR 56 crore with OTTplay doubling YoY. Radio revenue declined to INR 31 crore (from INR 36 crore) with margins at -21%, flagged as under pressure. The company holds a strong net cash position of INR 976 crore and is continuing aggressive copy-recruitment discounts in Print that are depressing near-term circulation revenue.
Positive momentum in Print advertising and strong cash reserves support the stock, but continued losses, margin pressure in Radio and Digital (-38%), and heavy discounting in English circulation (down 22% YoY) signal that profitability recovery will be slow and uneven for shareholders.
