In relation to the proforma accounts of the 2nd quarter of 2017, operating costs in the 2nd quarter of 2018, without considering amortisations and depreciation, fell 3.9%. This positive result came about due to a fall in personnel costs, following the restructurings carried out in 2017, as well as the lower programming costs and less IVR activity. In the 1st half of 2018, the decrease in operating costs came to 4.9%.
In the 2nd quarter of 2018, the consolidated EBITDA reached 8.4 M€, representing a gain of 30.4% in relation to the proforma accounts in the same period of the previous year. In the 1st half of 2018, EBITDA reached 10.2 M€, an increase of 69.2% relative to the proforma accounts in the same period of the previous year.
The volume of amortisations fell 1.4% during the 2nd quarter of 2018, not yet reflecting the expansion of the IMPRESA building. In accumulated terms through to the end of June 2018, the volume of amortisations fell 1.1%.
Negative financial results of 1.4 M€ were achieved, representing a reduction of 23.0% relative to the 2nd quarter of 2017. This improvement is due to the reduction of financial costs and, at the same time, of exchange rate gains obtained during the quarter, as well as due to the positive contribution from associated companies' results. In the 1st half of 2018, the improvement in financial results came to 20.4%.
Net income at the end of the 2nd quarter of 2018 was positive by 3.1 M€, representing an increase of 10.6% relative to the 2.8 M€ in the same quarter of the previous year. In accumulated terms through to the end of the 1st half of 2018, net income reached 2.5 M€, a strong improvement relative to the same period of the previous year, where only 85 thousand euros were registered.
In terms of the balance sheet, at the end of the 1st half of 2018, net debt, including financial leases, stood at 185.7 M€, i.e. a reduction of 3.4 M€ relative to June 2017. The lower rate of debt decline, particularly in the 2nd quarter of 2018, was due to the financing of the expansion the IMPRESA building, as well as the new studios.

SIC incorporared 15.5 thousand euros of restructuring costs in the 2nd quarter of 2018, and 1.33 M€ in the 2nd quarter of 2017. (a) The proforma accounts of June 2017, in the television segment, reflect the impact of IFRS 15, if it had been applied in 2017.
In the 2nd quarter of 2018, SIC achieved total revenues of 40.4 M€, which represented a year-on-year decrease of 0.4%, in spite of the expansion of advertising revenues, relative to the proforma accounts of 2018. The proforma accounts reflect the adoption of IFRS 15. In accumulated terms through to the end of the 1st half of 2018, revenues fell by 2.0%.
Advertising revenues reached 28.6 M€ in the 2nd quarter of 2018, representing an increase of 3.0% in comparison with the 2nd proforma quarter of 2018, benefiting from the positive economic conditions and the holding of the Football World Cup, with an impact on the revenues of the SIC channel and of the thematic channels. In the 1st half of 2018, advertising revenues registered a year-on-year increase of 0.9%.
SIC ended the 1st half of 2018 with an average share of 17.2%, in comparison with 17.5% registered in the same period of the previous year, maintaining its leadership position in both commercial targets (A/B CD 15/54 and A/B CD 25/54) during prime time, amongst generalist channels, with a share of 20.1% and 20.9%, respectively. The good performance of "Jornal da Noite" and of the soap opera "Paixão", as well as the debut in the second quarter of 2018 of the soap opera "Vidas Opostas", leaders in both commercial targets since their debut, contributed to these good results.
The SIC channels, i.e. the SIC generalist and thematic channels, obtained a collective market share of 21.1%, representing a decrease of 0.2 pp in comparison with the 1st half of 2017.
SIC's subscription channels reached a market share of 3.7% in the 1st half of 2018, unchanged from that registered in the same period of 2017. SIC Notícias once again stood out as the information channel most preferred by the Portuguese, with a share of 1.9% in the 1st half of 2018.

Subscription revenues generated by the 8 SIC channels, distributed over cable and satellite, in Portugal and abroad, fell by 1.3% (relative to the proforma accounts) in the 2nd quarter of 2018 to 9.8 M€. This decrease was essentually due to the devaluation of the US dollar, which in turn penalised the foreign contracts. In the 1st half of 2018, subscription revenues fell 1.6%.
In the 1st half of 2018, SIC concluded a distribution agreement with Comcast, expanding the coverage of SIC Internacional to the entire territory of the USA, reaching states such as California, Texas, Virginia or Pennsylvania.
IVR revenues in the 2nd quarter of 2018 fell 34.3% to 1.3 M€, as a result of the discontinuation of some programmes, namely "A Vida nas Cartas", from September 2017, and "Juntos à Tarde", from the beginning of March 2018. A sensible prizes management the enabled the maintenance of a contribution margin, in spite of the decrease in the volume of revenues. In the 1st half of 2018, IVR revenues fell 31.8%.
Other revenues fell 23.6% to 0.74 M€, as a result of the decrease in revenues from the sale of contents, which was not offset by the growth of GMTS. At the end of the 1st half of 2018, other revenues fell 13.2%.
In the 2nd quarter of 2018, operating costs were reduced by 7.5% relative to the proforma accounts in the same period of the previous year, as a consequence of the reduction of personnel costs, absence of restructuring costs, reduction of programming costs - in spite of the investment in World Cup games, and of lower IVR activity. In the 1st half of 2018, operating costs fell 8.3% in comparison with the proforma accounts in the same period of the previous year.
This operational performance permited the expansion of EBITDA, which reached 8.8 M€ in the 2nd quarter of 2018, corresponding to an increase of 37% and representing a margin of 21.8%. In the 1st half of 2018, EBITDA surged 56.9% to 11.2 M€.

In the 2nd quarter of 2017, Publishing incorporated 210 thousand euros of restructuring costs. (a) The proforma accounts of June 2017 reflect the change in the consolidation perimeter, with the sale of the magazines portfolio.
With the sale of the portfolio of twelve publications and respective brands at the start of 2018, the Publishing segment now has the following consolidation perimeter: the Expresso, the Blitz (which now only has a digital presence, with special edictions on paper), the New Media Solutions (which includes Customer Publishing), the Boa Cama Boa Mesa (previously in InfoPortugal) and the commercial management of digital properties not owned by IMPRESA, including, since 2018, the websites Noticias ao Minuto and Zero Zero, in addition to Linkedin, in Portugal, and MSN. The operating results presented herein are compared with the proforma accounts relative to the 2nd quarter and 1st half of 2017.
During the 2nd quarter of 2018, total revenues increased by 7.0% relative to the proforma accounts of the 2nd quarter of 2017 to 6.6 M€. All revenues, with the exception of circulation revenues, contributed to this increase. In the 1st half of 2018, total revenues registered an increase of 13.0%, relative to the proforma accounts in the same period of the previous year, to 12.7 M€.
In the 2nd quarter of 2018, circulation revenues fell 0.5% to 2.4 M€, affected by the closure of the Blitz magazine, with the slight increase in the sales of copies of the Expresso newspaper during this period being noteworthy. In the 2nd quarter of 2018, Expresso increased its cover price to 3.80€. It is important to mention the increase in revenues with reference to the digital subscription of Expresso, which grew 24.5% in the 1st half of 2018, representing 14.4% of total circulation revenues. At the end of the 1st half of 2018, circulation revenues fell by 1.2%.
In the 2nd quarter of 2018, advertising revenues reached 3.6 M€, having increased 6.0%, when compared to the proforma figures in the same period of 2017. It is important to point out that the digital segment, which increased about 58.3% in the 2nd quarter of 2018, contributed strongly to these good results. At the end of the 1st half of 2018, total advertising revenues increased by 15.7%.
The sales of brand extension products reached 212 thousand euros in the 2nd quarter of 2018, with the contribution of the two guides of Boa Cama Boa Mesa, representing a gain of 39.6% in comparison with the proforma accounts of the 2nd quarter of 2017. In the 1st half of 2018, the revenues generated by brand extension products reached 354 thousand euros, representing an increase of 53.6%.
Other revenues increased by 142.0% in the 2nd quarter of 2018, boosted by the contribution of the New Media Solutions unit. In the 1st half of 2018, these revenues increased by 98.0%.
The new activities included in the consolidation perimeter led to an increase of 13.0% in operating costs in the 2nd quarter of 2018, in line with the growth of revenues. In accumulated terms through to the end of the 1st half of 2018, operating costs increased by 11.5%.2
Consequently, the combined performance of operating revenues and costs resulted in an EBITDA of 309 thousand euros, representing a decrease of 49.7% relative to the proforma accounts of the 2nd quarter of 2017. In the 1st half of 2018, EBITDA reached 318 thousand euros, representing an increase of 117.5%.

Note: EBITDA = Operating Results + Amortisations and Depreciation + Impairment Losses. (1) Does not consider Amortisations and Depreciation and Impairment Losses. In the 2nd quarter of 2018, restructuring costs of 147 thousand euros were recorded.
This segment includes the management and financial costs of the IMPRESA holding and also includes the operating activities of Infoportugal, a company dedicated to information technologies and content production, namely aerial photography, cartography and georeferenced contents, and the exploitation of the photography website and of the Olhares Academy. Relative to 2017, the activity related to Boa Cama Boa Mesa was transferred to the Publishing segment.
In the 2nd quarter of 2018, Infoportugal registered a fall in turnover of 14.8%, mainly due to the difficulty in execution of the aerial photography contracts, due to the adverse weather conditions. Turnover, at the end of the 1st half of 2018, was 3.5% below the figures of the same period of the previous year, registering an improvement in terms of EBITDA.
In terms of consolidated results, in the 2nd quarter of 2018 the EBITDA of this segment was negative by 728 thousand euros, representing a fall of approximately 19.2% in comparison with the same quarter of 2017, penalised by the recording of restructuring costs. In the 1st half of 2018, EBITDA was negative by 1.3 M€, representing a decrease of 5.3%, in spite of the improvement of the margin of InfoPortugal.
6. Perspectives
The results obtained in the 1st semester 2018 permit the objective set out for 2018 by the IMPRESA Group to be reiterated, namely the continued reinforcement of profitability through the growth of EBITDA and Net Profits.
