Morningstar fair value is $1.50. Currently in the accumulation category. It would be in the buy zone at 75c and below..

Now curiously we had an update on 28th January 2016 saying revenue in first half of 2016 jumped 12%, yet complete radio silence this time round. All we have to go by is television revenue growth of 1.9% in first quarter of Fy2017 (AGM Presentation)
Could there be a deliberate strategy by the board to be quiet and paint a dire picture in order to get the licensing fee (3.38%) down. We won't know until it reports in April, but I think there's a case to be made to buy some on the cheap, but the question is when?

But putting this to one side, clearly this is a business in the midst of a turnaround with a register deep with people who aren't in this to lose money. MCN, Rinehart, even Seven Group hold a few. This is a business that is shedding down it's debt and will become profitable in the medium-long term, whether you agree about FTA or not, I think this warrants serious review....
