On the reaction day the stock moved 4.7 pts more than Nifty Smallcap 250 and 4.0 pts more than its TV Broadcasting & Software Production peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Zee Entertainment reported FY25 operating revenue of Rs 82,941 Mn, down 4% YoY, but profitability improved sharply. EBITDA grew 32% to Rs 11,962 Mn with margin expanding 390 bps to 14.4%, driven by cost management. PAT from continuing operations surged 245% to Rs 6,874 Mn (FY24: Rs 1,992 Mn). In Q4 FY25, revenue rose 1% YoY to Rs 21,841 Mn, with EBITDA up 36% to Rs 2,852 Mn and PAT jumping to Rs 1,886 Mn from Rs 122 Mn a year ago. ZEE5 digital revenue grew 6% to Rs 9,760 Mn in FY25, with Q4 up 16% YoY. Cash and equivalents stood at Rs 24.1 Bn (including Rs 2 Bn from first FCCB tranche). Exceptional items charge narrowed to Rs 982 Mn from Rs 2,780 Mn.
Despite a topline decline, strong margin expansion and sharp PAT growth signal improving operational efficiency and cost discipline, which is positive for shareholders. However, weak advertising revenue (down 27% YoY in Q4) and continued ZEE5 losses remain concerns that could limit upside in the stock.
