Thredbo Drives Down EVT's First-Half Fiscal 2024 Result, Hotel Drags Down Our Fair Value Estimate
EVT earnings are generated from cinemas, hotels, the Thredbo ski resort, and a portfolio of property investments. The cinema division is dependent on discretionary expenditure and popularity of films from studios, both Hollywood and foreign markets. The emergence of home entertainment systems, broadband-enabled streaming services and the shortening of the release window from film to home format pose an earnings risk longer-term. Cinema exhibitors such as EVT are focused on enhancing the moviegoing experience as a point of difference.
