Zinc Media delivers record 2025 performance and builds momentum into 2026

Zinc Media Group plc (LSE:ZIN) reported unaudited revenue of £41 million for 2025, alongside adjusted EBITDA of £1.9 million, with both figures rising 27% year-on-year. The results mark the company’s fifth straight year of growth in revenue and profitability, achieved against a challenging backdrop for the wider television production market.

The group said the performance reflects continued demand for its content across domestic and international broadcasters, reinforcing its standing in the TV and content production sector. Despite industry headwinds, the business delivered its strongest annual outcome to date.

Looking ahead, Zinc has entered 2026 with £3 million of new contracts already secured. A further £21 million is either contracted or at an advanced negotiation stage, while discussions are ongoing regarding an additional £10 million in commissions and several potential seven-figure projects.

Management believes efficiency measures, alongside a robust development pipeline spanning intellectual property creation, expansion within entertainment formats, and geographic growth in the Middle East, will help drive progress toward its medium-term objectives of £50 million in revenue and £5 million in EBITDA. The outlook has strengthened confidence among investors and commissioning partners.

From a market perspective, the company’s stock profile remains shaped by financial pressures, including past profitability constraints and elevated leverage levels. That said, strategic progress and successful programme launches have supported its longer-term growth case. Technical signals currently indicate a bearish trend, while valuation measures continue to reflect underlying financial challenges.
