Co. Head of Research

Petri Gostowski

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              Osakkeenomistajat                              Ilmarinen was revealed to be the seller of the Otava stake (950,000 shares).

Interesting. I wonder if this is good or bad news for the retail investor? So Otava wants to keep Alma listed after all?

More block trades coming up. Who is the seller in these trades? Ilkka? Otava Ltd increases its ownership in Alma Media Corporation - Otava Group

Yet another large block trade. Major shareholders are moving their holdings around… A block trade worth 1.7 million euros was executed in Alma Media shares Alma Median osakkeilla tehtiin 1,7 miljoonan euron arvoinen blokkikauppa | Kauppalehti

According to the latest shareholder list, Heikki Herlin’s Mariatorp holds a 19.03% stake. If that decreases, it will become significant and signal major changes.

Ilkka also seems to have a good 10% of Alma, and in this originally Ostrobothnian company, the situation is at a stalemate. In other words, the intentions of certain circles among Ilkka’s owners to sell off a large stake in Alma have been blocked & are in deep freeze, and it might even require a generational shift before the dam breaks. This is significant because Otava would need to own over 90% of Alma before they could carry out a squeeze-out (pakkolunastus) of the rest. Thus, Ilkka’s 10+% ownership is guaranteed to keep Alma on the stock exchange, at least for the time being. Enento is then the 3rd dance partner in this tango…

What are people’s views on Otava’s longer-term strategy? Do they intend to gradually acquire the whole of Alma for themselves?

The overall picture of Alma Media’s Q1 report was quite neutral, as the Q1 figures were well in line with our expectations and the 2024 guidance was also repeated as we expected. Considering this, we made no substantial changes to our forecasts for this or the coming years. In the short term, the company suffers from the slow market, but the company's flexible cost structure allows it to defend its earnings level until growth picks up.
