Hello, everyone. Welcome to our Q1 FY27 earnings discussion. We hope you have had an opportunity to review the results. We have with us today our CEO, Mr. Punit Goenka, along with senior management team.

Punit Goenka: Thank you, Ankit. Good evening, everyone. It is my pleasure to connect with all of you today as we discuss your company's performance in the first quarter of the new financial year. I will also speak about the key strategic growth levers embedded into the business that will translate into a meaningful business outcome in the quarters to come. Let me commence with the quarter gone by. The subdued macroeconomic sentiments from the previous fiscal flowed into the first quarter, impacting the industry at large. The continued volatility in West Asia resulted in Page 2 of 18 Zee Entertainment Enterprises Limited August 10, 2026 inflationary pressures that affected the spending patterns of advertisers. Amidst this environment, our company remain resilient to navigate the challenges and maintain a sharp focus on strengthening its foundation for the future. To give you context, your company implemented strategic steps to expand into newer avenues that will enable it to unlock the growth opportunities required to fortify the competitive advantage going forward. In line with this approach, we took certain conscious yet confident steps while exploring into the sports business, launch of Unite8 sports channels marks an important step in our journey to enhance consumer engagement through a curated portfolio of emerging and high-potential sports properties. Our approach is to maintain a balanced focus on long-term value creation and financial sustainability. For us, value delivery will take precedent over pursuing expensive properties, enabling us to build a differentiated and sustainable offering. In line with this approach, your company secured the rights of key global football properties, including FIFA, Bundesliga and Serie A. I must mention that the recently concluded FIFA World Cup 2026, performed exceptionally well on your company's linear and digital platforms reaching over 400 million consumers in India. The tournament provided a strong flip to both segments, attracting millions of viewers. Now speaking about our digital business. Zee5 continued to display profitable growth for the third consecutive quarter, attaining a 58% increase in revenue year-on-year. In order to propel this positive momentum further, we recently unveiled a multilingual content slate encompassing a bold showcase of stories and formats across movies, original series, live sports, AI-powered story telling, animation and kids entertainment. With the compelling mix of offerings, the platform remains well positioned to achieve higher growth in the future. The robust content strategy Page 3 of 18 Zee Entertainment Enterprises Limited August 10, 2026 implemented across key businesses continued to display positive results. On the linear side, your company achieved an all-time high network share of 20% during the quarter. I'm pleased to share that our flagship Hindi channel Zee TV is gaining ground, fortifying its position in the entertainment landscape. It has been a leader in prime time for over 32 consecutive weeks reflecting the growing resonance of the new shows with our viewers. The language channels are also displaying a strong growth momentum by maintaining a firm leadership position across the respective markets. Advertisement revenue during the quarter remained muted, primarily due to external headwinds. That said, it remains a critical priority for us and the team is investing the required time and energy to gain traction. On the subscription revenue front, we reported a 16% year-on-year growth that largely stems from the performance of the digital platform. Our movies and music business are also growing at a steady pace quarter- on-quarter, driving strong synergies with our other business segments. Your company is also bolstering its presence across other key strategic initiatives, including micro-drama's, kids’ entertainment, live events, VFX and animation that have immense potential to boost your company's growth. Even as we continue to strengthen the [Showing first 8,000 characters — download PDF for full document]
