What the Analysts think about Lionsgate
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Lionsgate stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Lionsgate stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Revenue rose 41% year on year to $668.8 million, with profit improving in both film and television. Lionsgate also expects to double scripted TV deliveries this fiscal year, which could support further growth. (Lionsgate)
The library generated $1.04 billion in trailing 12-month revenue, its second-highest total, while the studio had $1.5 billion of contracted future revenue. This gives Lionsgate a substantial base of content to keep licensing beyond the release of new films and series. (Lionsgate)
Ten of Lionsgate’s next 15 wide releases are repeatable branded properties, including new Hunger Games and Michael films. Extending established titles across films, series and other formats could create more ways to earn from its intellectual property. (The Motley Fool)
The studio remained loss-making under GAAP, with a $15.5 million quarterly net loss and $57.8 million of interest expense. Net debt was about $1.5 billion, so financing costs and leverage could limit the benefit of operating improvements. (Lionsgate)
Quarterly adjusted free cash flow was negative $8 million despite higher adjusted OIBDA. That weak cash conversion leaves less room to reduce debt or fund content if production and release spending stays high. (The Motley Fool)
Film results remain exposed to the success of individual releases: Lionsgate said the quarter’s higher motion-picture revenue and profit were driven in part by Michael. If future tentpoles fail to match that performance, film earnings could fall back. (Variety)
