Canal+ ( (GB:CAN) ) has issued an announcement.
Canal+ has outlined the financial and strategic impact of its acquisition of MultiChoice Group, projecting more than €400 million in EBITA and over €300 million in free cash flow in annual run-rate cost synergies from 2030, with meaningful savings already ramping up from 2026. Management describes the deal as transformational, cementing Canal+ as a media leader in roughly 40 countries and positioning the enlarged group to exploit fast-growing African pay-TV and streaming markets through a unified management team, an expanded content portfolio, a widely deployed Canal+ app, and an extensive distribution network. By leveraging its greater global scale, the company plans to rationalise content spending, renegotiate technology and hardware costs, streamline infrastructure, and centralise key functions, while implementation costs remain modest relative to the anticipated savings, suggesting a potentially material uplift to profitability and cash generation for investors and other stakeholders.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:CAN) stock is a Hold with a £300.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Canal+ stock, see the GB:CAN Stock Forecast page.
