Mediaset España: Lift from the World Cup? Not for all

Mediaset España (MSE) should report its 2Q18 results on July 25th (after market close) and we expect the company’s performance, at least in terms of revenues, to be supported by its direct exposure to the football World Cup. Due to this event, Q2 should be an atypical quarter to gauge advertising market behaviour. For the time being we keep our assumptions unchanged, but believe the risk for ad market FY expectations might be on the downside, since the World Cup effect was perhaps not strong enough to ‘push’ the market as a whole. Having said that, MSE shares’ performance seems to incorporate those possible fears, with an underperformance vs the IBEX of roughly 15% since the beginning of April, and thus the downside risks look limited. We reiterate our BUY rating but we reduce our FV from €9.7 to €9.1, a technical adjustment following the €0.6 dividend payment.
