Cenkos: One Media iP Group Plc -- Favourable upside from catalogue valuation

One Media iP has released a robust set of FY21A to 30th October 2021, with an Adj EBITDA of £1.7m (11% YoY increase). This was £0.1m below our forecast, driven by a delay in deployment of capital into new catalogues in FY21. Whilst the past financial year operated under the uncertain market brought about from Covid, the Group continued to consistently acquire catalogues and the pipeline for future acquisitions remains strong. FY22E have been adjusted to account for the delay in the deployment of

Cenkos: One Media iP Group Plc -- Trading in line with expectations

One Media iP (OMiP) has released a robust FY21E trading update, with Adj EBITDA of £1.65m; slightly below our forecast of £1.8m, owing to it taking a little longer to deploy cash raised on acquisitions of new royalty assets, and adverse foreign exchange movements. The company ended the period with £0.7m of net cash (vs our forecast of £0.3m of net debt), leaving further financial resources available for acquisitions heading into FY22E.

We release new forecasts for FY22E (Adj EBITDA £2.2m), with growth driven by further increases in demand for streaming, new service offerings (eg TCAT), and
