Story Highlights
ACCC Clears Southern Cross Media’s Acquisition of Seven West Media

TipRanks Black Friday Sale

The latest announcement is out from Southern Cross Media Group Limited ( (AU:SXL) ).

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) has decided not to oppose Southern Cross Media Group’s proposed acquisition of Seven West Media. The ACCC’s investigation concluded that the two companies are not close competitors in the supply of advertising opportunities or media content, as Southern Cross focuses on radio and audio entertainment while Seven West Media is involved in print news and television. The decision reflects broader industry trends, such as the rise of digital media and online advertising, which continue to challenge traditional media platforms. The acquisition is unlikely to substantially lessen competition in any market.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:SXL) stock is a Hold with a A$1.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Southern Cross Media Group Limited stock, see the AU:SXL Stock Forecast page.
