Citi released a report stating that DAMAI ENT (01060.HK) recorded revenue of RMB8.024 billion for the full year ended end-March this year, exceeding the banks and the markets expectations by 1% and 3%, respectively, mainly driven by stronger-than-expected revenue from drama production. However, adjusted EBITA amounted to RMB746 million, falling 15% and 16% short of the banks and the markets forecasts, respectively, primarily due to rising operating expenses and a slight decline in gross margin.

By segment, revenue from IP commercialization and the Damai business (live entertainment content and technology segment) both came in below expectations, with segment profits 25% and 9% below market forecasts, respectively. In contrast, profits from the film and drama segment beat expectations. The bank noted that revenue from the IP business in the second half of the fiscal year was approximately RMB1 billion, down 13% HoH. Segment profit declined from RMB235 million in the first half of the fiscal year to RMB166 million in the second half.
