Alma Media operates in the media sector. The company's main focus is on digital media, where the offering consists of news content that touches on lifestyle, career and finance. The group operates several brands, the better-known of which include Kauppalehti. The customers are found in the Nordic countries, the Baltics and Europe and consist of private users. The head office is located in Helsinki.

Alma Media Executive Management Team members bought shares | Kauppalehti Behind a paywall, but the headline speaks for itself. The Management Team believes in Alma and knows that good news is coming. The purchases totaled approximately 267,000 euros, which is quite a nice pot. In recent years, it has been typical for Alma to hover at the same levels for a long time and then make a proper move up to the next level.

It might be too big a bite for Otava alone, but why not with a partner? For example, Herlin.

It would be interesting to be a fly on the wall at Otava’s board meetings. What is their end game in this Alma Media play? “A strategic holding and Alma will remain an independent listed company” and whatever other jargon we’ve always heard from Otava. Somehow, Otava’s actions don’t make sense purely on economic grounds. Is there a consolidation of the media field underway, where rationality is being overtaken by ambition and a quest for scale? Is Otava ready to pay a control premium (as they are doing now) and leave Alma to “stagnate” on the stock exchange? Well, at least it will pay out an okay dividend in the future. Mariatorp Oy, Ilkka Oyj, and Keskisuomalainen Oyj (partly indirectly through Ilkka) influence this course of events with their own votes and plans. Will the pieces start moving now that Ilkka has managed to combine its share classes? Are the stubborn Ostrobothnians finally cashing out, with Alma ending up with Otava at a good price? Is it time to jump on the Alma (or Ilkka or Keskisuomalainen) bandwagon and reap the fruits of consolidation? IMO, Otava should delist Alma, or is it a bit too much for them to swallow after all?

That 700,000-share trade is likely the one mentioned in the news below, meaning Otava has received permission from the Finnish Competition and Consumer Authority (KKV) to execute it / exceed the 40% ownership threshold. To “celebrate” (?) the trade, the Chairman of the Board was also replaced. Lindholm is the CEO of the Otava Group. Whatever corporate restructurings might occur, Otava plays “the” role. Otava itself has increased its ownership over the years, and at the 30% threshold, it made a modest/mandatory tender offer, and without any premium, managed to gain just over a percentage point more ownership at a price of 9.1 euros in summer 2023. Alma Media Corporation’s Chairman of the Board changes - Alma Media Alma Media Oyj:n hallituksen puheenjohtaja vaihtuu - Alma Media Otava has received KKV’s (Finnish Competition and Consumer Authority) approval to increase its ownership in Alma Media - Otava Group Otava on saanut KKV:n hyväksynnän kasvattaa omistustaan Alma Mediassa - Otavakonserni Otava Oy increases its ownership in Alma Media Corporation - Otava Group Otava Oy kasvattaa omistustaan Alma Media Oyj:ssä - Otavakonserni

My own view is that in addition to the recommendation, the forecasts are unnecessarily cautious. I believe an EPS of 0.85 is closer, but even that still leaves room for market and operating environment risks. The valuation could be P/E 20, whereas Inderes had it at 19.5 before the report. Now it’s P/E 18.5 based on the €15 target price before the Q1 report. With a P/E of 20, we reach a TP (target price) of €17, which I think it should be without being overly cautious. The company benefits from AI, its own operations are very efficient, there’s a 4% dividend yield, room for acquisitions, good return on capital, and the firm possesses resilience even in a difficult market. By the way, there was also a block trade of approximately 700,000 shares of Alma today. An interesting addition with the ownership arrangements.

Good question, and yes, I did consider a Buy recommendation as well. The reason I held back on it is that it’s difficult to see drivers for it to play out in this operating environment. Secondly, I’m thinking that because of the still-closed strait in the Middle East, macro risks are currently skewed more to the downside than the upside. Therefore, I’d rather save that Buy recommendation in case Mr. Market gives an even better entry point. All in all, this was a borderline case, and I ended up holding off on a stronger view for now.

Petri’s latest report on Alma Media:                   Inderes              Alma Media Q1'26: Marginaaliparannus etenee mallikkaasti - Inderes    Alma Median Q1-tulos oli selkeä positiivinen yllätys, kun yhtiön kannattavuus vahvistui vertailukaudesta tuntuvasti.                             A more general question for @Petri_Gostowski, but why wasn’t a Buy recommendation given in this case, even though there’s 21% upside to the target price and an additional 4% dividend yield? Previously, over 15% total return expectation was enough for a Buy recommendation, and this definition has since been abandoned, but surely the return expectation is now already 25%, and Alma’s risks don’t seem exceptionally high either.  This is apparently the most recent recommendation policy.
