Corus Entertainment (B)CJR.B.TOHOLDJul 03, 2014Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Jun 04, 2026. Market Open.
Since last summer there has been a recession in advertising for television and this has been a problem for Chorus. There are longer term headwinds since subscribers are moving more to streaming services. Chorus has STACK TV but it is an uphill battle against some of the big companies. It sold its animation studio to help reduce debt load but debt is still pretty high. The stock is too risky.
Trading at 13X forward earnings. Generates a lot of free cash flow. Very stable business and very attractive valuation, but thinks it is fully priced. 4.3% dividend yield.
