Gray Television's Q1 Earnings Call: Our Top 5 Analyst Questions
Gray Television's first quarter results for 2025 were received positively by the market, as the company exceeded Wall Street's revenue and profit expectations despite a year-over-year sales decline. Management attributed the quarter's performance to stronger-than-anticipated political advertising, ongoing cost containment, and the growing contribution from local sports broadcasting. CEO Hilton Howell highlighted the impact of new local sports rights agreements, stating, 'the combination of our premier local news franchises with local sports make our local stations even more relevant and more valuable than ever.' Is now the time to buy GTN? Find out in our full research report (it's free). Revenue: $782 million vs analyst estimates of $773.2 million (5% year-on-year decline, 1.1% beat) Operating Margin: 11.8%, down from 15.1% in the same quarter last year Market Capitalization: $476.1 million While we enjoy listening to the management's commentary, our favorite part of earnings calls are the analyst questions. Those are unscripted and can often highlight topics that management teams would rather avoid or topics where the answer is complicated. Here is what has caught our attention. Dan Kurnos (Benchmark): Asked about the company's strategic flexibility if deregulatory changes materialize. Chief Legal and Development Officer Kevin Latek indicated Gray Television is considering swaps and other transactions but awaits regulatory clarity before acting. Aaron Watts (Deutsche Bank): Inquired whether advertising declines were due to cancellations or delayed bookings. President Pat LaPlatney clarified that hesitancy, not cancellations, was the issue, and pointed to growth in service categories and unexpected political revenue as positive signs. Patrick Sholl (Wells Fargo): Questioned expectations for political advertising versus prior cycles. CEO Hilton Howell noted that this cycle has seen more substantial and earlier ad buys than previous midterms, but acknowledged political ad revenue is difficult to predict. Craig Huber (Huber Research): Sought details on Assembly Studios' leasing progress and financial contribution. CEO Howell stated occupancy is about 75-80%, with additional upside possible, and CFO Gignac said returns will improve as more leases are signed and new phases of development are completed. Alan Gould (Loop Capital): Asked about the impact of direct negotiations with virtual multichannel video programming distributors (vMVPDs) on retransmission revenue. Latek responded that there is a significant difference in rates, but the net impact would depend on network agreements if regulations change. In the coming quarters, the StockStory team will track (1) the pace of local sports rights adoption and the impact on station viewership and ad sales, (2) evidence of sustained political ad revenue during a non-election cycle, and (3) progress on cost containment translating into improved margins and deleveraging. Developments in industry regulation and the potential for market consolidation will also be important signals for Gray Television's future trajectory. Gray Television currently trades at $4.55, up from $3.72 just before the earnings. Is there an opportunity in the stock?The answer lies in our full research report (it's free). The market surged in 2024 and reached record highs after Donald Trump's presidential victory in November, but questions about new economic policies are adding much uncertainty for 2025. While the crowd speculates what might happen next, we're homing in on the companies that can succeed regardless of the political or macroeconomic environment.

Why Estée Lauder Stock Was Bumping Higher Today
An analyst upgraded his recommendation on the cosmetics company to buy. He also cranked his price target nearly 20% higher. 10 stocks we like better than Estée Lauder Companies › Estée Lauder Companies (NYSE: EL) stock was smelling sweet on the last trading day of the week. It had an analyst's recommendation upgrade to thank for that; following the change, investors traded the shares up modestly. They were up by almost 1.3% in late-session trading that day, handily beating the more or less sideways trajectory of the S&P 500 index. Well before market open, HSBC's Erwan Rambourg changed his Estée Lauder recommendation to buy from his previous hold. He also made quite the adjustment to his price target, boosting it to $99 per share from the preceding $80. According to reports, Rambourg now believes Estée Lauder is positioned to essentially double its earnings between its fiscal years 2025 and 2027. This will derive from active cost cutting and reorganization measures, although he's anticipating improvements on the top line too. The HSBC pundit isn't the only market professional becoming notably more bullish on the cosmetics sector mainstay. On Thursday, Evercore ISI's Robbert Ottenstein lifted his price target to $100 per share from $90 while maintaining an outperform (buy, in other words) rating. And on Monday, Deutsche Bank's Steve Powers upgraded the stock from hold to buy. While Estée Lauder isn't the cheapest stock to buy, at least on the basis of its valuations, the company has shown recent signs of improvement. In Powers' analysis, he cited management's success in boosting its business in China, a key overseas market, and the effectiveness of its cost-reduction strategy. Estée Lauder could very well prove to be a turnaround story.
