Index Details Entertainment Network India Ltd (ENIL), which operates the ‘Radio Mirchi’ FM station brand, has successfully retained its leadership position among private broadcasters with a market share of ~30%. ENIL is expected to be the biggest beneficiary of the much awaited Phase III auctions, which will see the light of the day in 2015. We are optimistic on the company’s prospects given that:
With the election of a reform oriented government, the uncertainty over the Phase III auctions have considerably reduced. The Phase III auctions, which will open up 839 licenses for bidding, is to be conducted in two batches – the first batch, which commences in March 2015, will comprise bidding for 135 licenses in existing 69 towns. The bidding for the remaining stations will take place a year later. These auctions are more progressive and broadcaster friendly and are expected to provide the much needed fillip to the growth of the radio industry.
ENIL with a debt free status, operating cash flow generation of an average Rs 90-100 crore per annum over the past few years and an estimated cash and cash equivalents balance of ~Rs 575 crore in FY15, is financially well placed to meet the upfront payment requirements of i) Rs 320-330 crore estimated migration fee for the renewal of Phase II licenses and ii) acquisition of licenses under Phase III. For most other industry players, raising this kind of capital would be a tall order, given their stretched balance sheets.
We have valued ENIL based on the discounted cash flow method (DCF) with projections from FY15-FY25. We expect ENIL’s revenues to grow at a healthy 10 year CAGR of 16%, post the addition of stations in Phase III. EBITDA margins are expected to dip in the short term and normalize to ~25-26% by FY25. Return ratios are expected to remain suppressed in the short term and gradually stabilize to 15% by FY25. Debt is expected to go up marginally in the short term. We initiate coverage on ENIL with a BUY and a Price Objective of `840, representing a potential upside of 45% over a period of 24 months.

Key Investment Highlights
ENIL – an emerging all-round advertising partner
ENIL is evolving from a pure play Radio FM player to a one-stop shop advertising
partner. It now earns 20-25% of revenues from related activites, such as
activation revenues, mobile stations and off-radio events (such as property fairs
and music show awards). While these activites are only marginally profitable,
they are carried out in line with the company’s strategy to provide complete
advertising solutions to clients.
Examples of new product launches:
Four internet radio stations viz. Purani Jeans, Club Mirchi, Meethi Mirchi
and Mirchi Edge in 2012.
Special Bhojpuri radio station under its ‘Mirchi Mobile’ platform. Mirchi
Mobile is a mobile VAS service by the company, which gives mobile
subscribers the access to Radio Mirchi anywhere in the country.
Conditional license to use the brand ‘Radio Mirchi’ granted to Abu Dhabi
Media Company (ADMC) for a fixed fee.
Further, it can leverage the strength of the Times Group, its parent, to foray into
new and innovative launches.
‘Radio Mirchi’ has successfully retained its leadership
position
ENIL, with a market share of 30%, has retained its leadership position despite the
marketing push from other radio stations. This has helped the company achieve
inventory utilizations of nearly 120% in the top 8 stations and 96% in the
remaining 24 stations. Given its reach and popularity, Radio Mirchi commands an
average premium of 15-20% in ad rates pan India. Further, it also has the lowest
commercial time per hour of broadcast as compared to other stations which
ensures repeat listenership. The steady increase in inventories and growth in ad
rates has enabled ENIL to report a healthy 12% revenue CAGR over FY11-FY14,
despite the delay in Phase III auctions.

Phase III auctions – A boon for the radio industry
The much awaited Phase III radio license auctions will finally see the light of the day in 2015. On 16th January 2015, the Cabinet approved the Phase III auctions and the migration (renewal) of Phase II licenses to Phase III. The Phase III auctions, which open up bidding opportunities for 839 licenses across 294 cities, have been delayed for 3 years. These auctions serve as a much needed boost to the radio FM players, since the Phase II auctions took place nearly a decade ago.

Phase III regulations net positive for private broadcasters
Factor Impact
Infrastructure • Infrastructure sharing is allowed across all categories of city; not just in C and D categories
• Affordability of separate stations in C & D categories was anyways an issue; shared
infrastructure will help reduce costs by 35-40% and the break-even period
• For instance, the cost of setting up one station is Rs 3 crore, whereas the cost of setting
up a transmission tower (which enables infra sharing) is only Rs 70L.
Inter-spacing of Channels • While the inter-channel spacing has been proposed to reduce from 800 KHz to 400 KHz in
Phase III, it is likely to happen only in Phase IV
• This has the potential to double the frequencies available on the same spectrum, thereby
increasing radio spectrum utilization
• With higher number of frequencies, content differentiation becomes a possibility
Ownership • Lock in period of promoters and major shareholders bought down from 5 years to 3 years
• This will help the promoters exit unviable investments and may lead to consolidation in the
industry
Distribution of licenses • Of the 839 licenses up for auction, nearly 94% i.e. 787 licenses are in the small cities
which have a lower revenue earning potential
• Allows private FM radio players to own more than one station in a city subject to certain
conditions
• Could lead to fierce bidding in the metros – 1 in Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai, Ahmadabad,
and Pune and 2 in Mumbai
• However, the bidding is unlikely to be irrational as majority of the radio operators have
made thin profits/losses since inception
Migration fees • Licenses granted during Phase II auctions, which are due for renewal on March 2015 will
have to be renewed post the payment of migration fees
• Migration fees will be determined as a % of the highest bid price under Phase III auctions
• If the Phase III auctions do not complete before March 2015, the government may grant a
temporary extension; disruption of services is unlikely
Reserve Price • Reserve price (minimum bid price) set at the highest bid price of Phase II action in a
similar category town in the same region
• A high reserve price may turn out to be unviable in small cities
Auction method • The electronic ascending auction methodology is being adopted in Phase III auctions
which is likely to result in costly acquisitions unlike in close bid tenders followed in Phase II
News Content • Sharing of news content allowed from All India Radio only in unadulterated form
• Removes any possibility of creativity
• Firms with an established regional newspaper such as the Times of India publication
owned by the Times Group, which also operates the Radio Mirchi and DB Corp (94.3 MY
FM) are unable to capitalize the opportunity of news content on radio through their own set-

In our initiating coverage report dated 17th April 2013, we have provided a comparative table on the recommendations of Phase II and Phase III, an overview of the key policy guidelines for Phase III and their impact in detail. Despite the fact that the Phase III auctions have certain clauses which are unfavorable to the private broadcasters, in totality, the initiatives are more progressive and broadcaster friendly.
ENIL well placed to capitalize on the Phase III auctions
Not only does ENIL have a high listenership in key metro regions, it is also financially better placed compared to other broadcasters. ENIL is forecasted to have cash and cash equivalents of Rs 575 crore by FY15. With healthy operational performance and prudent working capital management, ENIL has consistently generated Rs 90-100 crore of cash flow from operating activities every year. This has provided the company a great cushion to bid competitively in the upcoming Phase III auctions. According to the management, ENIL has the capability to raise Rs 400 crore of debt given its current debt free status translating to a potential funds availability of Rs 900-1000 crore. Also, migration fee for existing licenses could entail ~Rs 330 crore of cash outflow. While, we believe that ENIL will be able to service the payments given its financial strength, there are likely to be large cash out-flows in the next one-two years which will suppress the return ratios in the short term. Peer Strategy: Recently, the media house, Jagran Prakashan took over Radio City, ENIL’s closest peer. The available information on Radio City and its Phase III strategy:

Both these players have indicated that they will refrain from bidding too aggressively in the Phase III auctions, especially since inter-spacing of licenses could be halved in the next radio auctions, which will potentially double the number of licenses available. Radio City has identified certain stations which it will look to bid for, especially in the north, while Radio Mirchi aims to establish a pan India presence through the auctions.

Radio advertising to post a robust growth
While, radio as a medium, is well penetrated in the metros and non-metro cities in India, the share of radio advertising is projected to be only 1.6% of the total media and entertainment revenues in 2014. This is significantly lower compared to the world average of 6%. According to the FICCI-KPMG Indian Media and Entertainment Industry Report 2014, the radio industry outperformed all other traditional media segments by clocking a growth of 15 per cent. Currently, clients are being forced to re- evaluate their media mix as their advertising budgets are constantly under pressure. There has been a tendency to shift focus from nationwide pure brand-building to more tactical, local, focused promotional targeting. This has played in radio’s favour as it enables local reach to advertisers increasingly looking to target specific audiences and at affordable pricing.
Also, to draw parallels from the mature market of the US, the growth in radio has
not been impacted despite the increased penetration of broadband.
According to the website, Statista.com, radio is the second most powerful
medium in the United States, reaching 59 percent of the country’s population
daily. In comparison, 49 percent are reached by the Internet while print media
accounts for 13 percent. Only TV, with a daily reach of 80 percent, is consumed
on a daily basis by a broader audience. Online radio is, somewhat surprisingly,
used by just 15 percent of American radio listeners, even though close to 80
percent of the U.S. population has access to the internet.

Accordingly, we are positive on the long term prospects of the radio industry
given the inherent interactivity in the medium, which appeals to all age groups.
Key Risks
Delay in the second batch of Phase III auctions:
The Phase III auctions, which will open up 839 licenses for bidding, is to be
conducted in two batches – the first batch, which commences in March 2015, will
comprise bidding for 135 licenses in existing 69 towns. The bidding for the
remaining stations will take place a year later. Any delay in the second batch of
Phase III auctions will continue to be a drag on the growth of the radio industry in
India.
Irrational bidding:
Limited licenses in the key metro regions, which are relatively more profitable,
could lead to irrational bidding. Higher cost of acquisition will result in extended
break-even periods or limited profitability, thereby suppressing return ratios.

Financial Outlook We have valued ENIL based on the discounted cash flow method (DCF) with
projections from FY15-FY25. Since the auction of the first batch of Phase III
licenses (135 licenses in 69 existing towns) is commencing in March 2015, the
timing of the auctions no longer remain uncertain. We have modeled ENIL’s
financials based on management and industry interactions. The assumptions are
illustrated below
Key Assumptions:
Number of Stations: The management has indicated that they intend to
take the number of stations to 100+ from the existing 32. We have
assumed that the company will successfully bid for 70 stations in Phase
III, of which 38 stations will be auctioned in the first batch. We have
ranked the cities based on the population and the State GDP to arrive at
the potential stations which ENIL will look to add to its portfolio.
Commencement of the new stations: The time to set-up a new station
will be considerably lower since infrastructure sharing is allowed in Phase
III. We have assumed that stations in the Category A+ and Category A
cities will commence operations by end FY16 (all of which are available
for bidding in the first batch); Category B city stations will commence
operations in FY17 and Category C and D stations will commence
operations in FY18.
Utilization Rates: Across cities, we expect utilization rates to gradually
ramp up and operate at optimum levels as we come closer to the 2019
General Elections. Post the elections, we have assumed utilization rates
to moderate to sustainable levels.
Pricing: Based on our industry interactions, we do not believe radio
advertisement rates for established players such as ENIL will fall even
with the addition of 839 licenses into the system. Our interactions reveal:
i) Advertisement rates set by market leaders are sticky even in the
face of expansion in stations and increasing competition. Market
leaders possess the brand and the reach – two primary factors
which advertisers are willing to pay a premium for over other new
entrants/lesser known brands. A case in point is illustrated with the
volumes and advertising rates of DB Corp, a prominent player in
the regional print media industry.
We expect ENIL to take its station count to 100+ post Phase III
Advertising rates not expected to decline despite the addition of Phase III licenses

ii) New licenses acquired by existing players in the metros are likely to
focus on a different niche than the existing ones such as English,
Devotional or Retro. These stations will attract different kinds of
advertisers which will not directly impact the advertising rates of existing
general music category players.
iii) At low budgets, advertisers will have to compromise on peak timings or
program popularity in top radio brands. The radio is unlikely to reduce
rates to accommodate the client.
iv) ENIL is likely to set the pricing in stations in the Category B, C and D
cities based on the prevailing rates or by drawing a parallel to print media
rates in first time cities. Price discovery in untapped markets will be aimed
at protecting gross margins. We have assumed the existing pricing
standards in cities which have a radio presence and have drawn parallels
from print media rates to arrive at rates for first time towns.
iv) Established players like ENIL have the capabilities to secure exclusive
tie-ups with national advertisers for their newly launched channels which
will help them fill ad inventory. A case in point is Zee Entertainment
Enterprises which signed an exclusive deal with HUL for its newly
launched Zee Bangla – A Bengali movie channel. As part of the deal,
HUL was to be the exclusive advertiser in Zee Bangla for one and half
months, thus occupying 30% of the total ad inventory. For Zee, the
company could secure advertisements from Day 1 irrespective of the
performance and HUL, on the other hand, benefited through exclusive

Migration fees: We have assumed migration fees of Rs 330 crore, on the
upper side of management’s indicated range of Rs 290-310 crore.
One time Reserve Fee: We have assumed a 50% increase over the
highest bid price for Phase II in the key stations. In total, we have
assumed that the company will spend Rs 450-500 crore towards the
acquisition of 70 new stations.
We expect ENIL’s revenues to grow at a healthy 10 year CAGR of 16% post the
addition of stations in Phase III and robust advertising growth during 2018-19, the
election year.

EBITDA margins are expected to dip in the short term as manpower and
administration expenses are likely to increase during Phase III and Category C
and D cities are expected to have a higher break-even period of 2 years. Post
which, we expect margins to normalize to ~25-26% with the increasing saturation
of the radio industry.
PAT margins are expected to be more impacted in the short term due to: i) dip in
operational margins ii) absence of other income as the company uses up its
surplus cash in Phase III and iii) we expect the company to raise Rs 130 crore of
debt, thereby resulting in interest costs. However, as the company starts to
generate excess cash reserves from FY21 onwards, PAT margin will revert to
20% by FY25.
Return ratios are expected to remain suppressed in the short term and gradually
stabilize to 15% by FY25. The company is expected to turn debt free by FY21.
