How do you put the "omni" in Omnimedia? Susan Lyne, the CEO of Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, says she expects the company to generate about one-third of its earnings before interest, tax,
depreciation and amortization from its Internet business by 2010.
"We are looking at publishing, merchandising and Internet each driving roughly a third of our EBITDA by 2010," Lyne
said at a Reuters Media Summit in New York.
That's interesting, given that the company most recently posted an adjusted loss of $600,000 in EBITDA on revenue of $2.8 million for its
Web properties in the third quarter. Apparently, MSLO is expecting surging growth in the next few years.
The company's publishing business, meanwhile, had adjusted EBITDA of $2.9 million
on revenue of $36.3 million in the same period, while merchandising posted adjusted EBITDA of $6.1 million on revenue of $12 million.
