Linmon Media (SEHK:9857)

Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★★★

Overview: Linmon Media Limited is a drama series production company operating in Mainland China and internationally, with a market cap of HK$1.15 billion.

Operations: The company's revenue is primarily generated from the Chinese Mainland, accounting for CN¥946.90 million, with an additional CN¥45.24 million coming from other countries and regions.

Market Cap: HK$1.15B

Linmon Media, with a market cap of HK$1.15 billion, has seen significant developments recently. The company became profitable this year and forecasts suggest earnings growth of 118.72% annually. Linmon Media is debt-free, with short-term assets (CN¥3 billion) comfortably exceeding both its short-term and long-term liabilities. Recent strategic agreements with Tencent for drama series licensing and advertisement production could enhance revenue streams from Mainland China (CN¥946.90 million) and internationally (CN¥45.24 million). However, the dividend yield of 7.22% may not be sustainable due to low return on equity at 1.2%. Board changes include Ms. Wang Juan's appointment as a non-executive director following Mr. Sun Zhonghuai's resignation without board disagreements reported.
