The latest update is out from Catalyst Media ( (GB:CMX) ).
Catalyst Media Group reported an increase in profit after tax to £387,000 for the year to 30 June 2025, driven largely by its equity-accounted share of earnings from its 20.54% holding in Sports Information Services, despite a slight decline in net asset value per share to 147p. SIS itself posted lower turnover but higher post-tax profit of £2.3m for the year to 31 March 2025, reflecting continued investment in its expanding content creation business and adjustments in greyhound racing rights, and it declared a £1.7m dividend, of which CMG received about £0.35m. CMG’s board has opted to retain cash and not pay a dividend, maintaining minimal overheads, while SIS pursues growth by scaling its in-house esports and numbers products, adding new sports titles, broadening its customer base—particularly in North America—and securing regulatory licences in more US jurisdictions. Although recent UK tax changes on gambling are not expected to materially affect SIS’s largely international content creation revenues, ongoing pressure on UK racing betting turnover and the drawdown of SIS’s cash balance underscore the importance of its new growth initiatives, backed by a £35m expandable banking facility, for sustaining future operating profit and returns to CMG and other stakeholders.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:CMX) stock is a Hold with a £60.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Catalyst Media stock, see the GB:CMX Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on GB:CMX Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:CMX is a Neutral.
Catalyst Media’s overall stock score is primarily influenced by its mixed financial performance and technical analysis. While the company maintains a strong balance sheet, operational inefficiencies and negative cash flows are concerning. Technical indicators show potential bullish momentum, but oversold conditions add uncertainty. The high dividend yield is a positive aspect, but the negative P/E ratio highlights valuation challenges.
