Atresmedia Televisión
The television division of
Atresmedia
has
notably increased its revenue.
Despite having two fewer channels than
its competitors in the first six months
of the year and one channel less from 1
July following the launch of the
MEGA
channel, the company has been able to
compile a varied and competitive TV
offer, incorporating into its grid some very
attractive contents that have generated
appreciable audience levels.
In December, the schedule was reinforced
with the launch of the
Atreseries
channel,
which in its brief existence has already
recorded more than half a point of
audience share.
Thus the financial results of this division
increased in 2015:
•
Net Revenue was 857.4 million euros,
compared to 785.3 of the previous
year, up 9.2%.
•
EBITDA totalled 133.5 million euros,
representing a margin over sales of
15.6% and growth of 29.1% versus 2014.
Atresmedia Radio
In radio,
Atresmedia
has obtained
some outstanding results. The changes
introduced at
Onda Cero
in April, to
mark its 25
th
anniversary, as well as the
incorporation of a new generation of
professionals, has strengthened what was
already an attractive radio offer from the
Group
, and 2015 has been the second-
best year in its history.
Income was above market growth (8.1%)
due to an attractive, balanced and varied
programming that has been able to win
the confidence of both the public as well
as advertisers.
•
Net Revenue was 89.9 million euros,
compared to 81.2 of the previous year,
up 10.6%.
