Media Capital increases advertising revenues in radio and digital, while reducing net debt
1) As informed to the market on the 20th of September 2019, Promotora de Informaciones, S.A. (Prisa) celebrated an agreement with Cofina, SGPS, S.A. (Cofina), encompassing the sale of 100% of the share capital and voting rights of Vertix, SGPS, S.A., which owns 94,69% of the share capital and voting rights of Grupo Media Capital SGPS, S.A.. Such operation was subject to certain conditions, including the non-opposition by the Competition Authority and the approval of other competent regulatory entities. With the celebration of the aforementioned agreement, on the 21st of September, Cofina published a preliminary announcement of a general public offer for the acquisition of all the share capital of Grupo Media Capital SGPS, S.A..
On the 23rd December 2019, both Prisa and Cofina informed the market of changes in the terms of the agreement, encompassing the reduction of the transaction price, having also informed the market of changes to the preliminary announcement of a general public offer. On the 31st of December 2019, Cofina informed the market that the Competition Authority does not oppose to the transaction. On the 29th of January 2020, both Prisa and Cofina held their respective shareholders general meetings, having in both cases informed the market that some of the steps described in the sale and purchase agreement had been accomplished.
2) Since a large portion of the activities carried out by the companies in the entertainment business (mostly related to events) is managed in tandem with the Group's radio business, Media Capital opted to include these activities in one single operating and reportable segment, now denominated "Radio & Entertainment". For comparability purposes, the maps below are pro-forma, i.e., 2018 figures reflect the adoption of the new segment for 2018 data.

Plural continues to be one the main players in the audiovisual production sector, also with a relevant presence in the associated technical services/equipment and scenic design and construction.
In terms of the financial performance, this segment had operating revenues of € 33.1 million (up 1%). In Portugal the activity recovered strongly in the second and third quarters, whereas there was a sharp drop in the first and last three months of the year, namely related with novelas. It is important to bear in mind that content production (as well as the other activities of Plural) typically does not follow a stable seasonality.
In Spain, the activity stands at residual levels, with a slim and flexible structure, the necessary one to address attractive commercial opportunities.
The adjusted opex increased 9%, due to the effort put into the quality of contents. In the fourth quarter, the variation was -1%, as a result of the lower activity in Portugal.
The adjusted EBITDA stood at € -1.8 million, which compares with € 0.8 million in 2018. Nonetheless, in Q4 adjusted EBITDA was € -1.4 million (€ 0.4 million in Q4 2018).
The introduction of IFRS 16 did not generate a relevant impact in EBIT.

In the five radio audience readings published in 2019, the data continues to point out the outstanding performance of the various formats that belong to Media Capital.

Regarding innovation, the various radio formats continued the process started last year, having now a total of 27 web radios (12 by M80, 6 by Rádio Comercial, 7 by Smooth FM and 2 by Cidade FM), These are streaming radios that segment the most relevant clusters (both in genre and decades) for these FM formats. Such radios are not based on algorithms but rather on carefully playlists cherry picked by each format's team, both with a vast experience. This offer is available also through apps, and provides an invaluable extension of the FM products, thus increasing contact and brand awareness among listeners and advertisers, while proving that the Group's radios are already fully immerged in the digital transformation process.
On financial grounds, advertising improved by 13% YoY (+23% YoY in Q4), clearly outperforming the market.
Other operating revenues were up 79%, to € 3.6 million, benefiting not only from the activity of events and spots production, but mostly from the sale of tangible assets, with an impact € 1.0 million, which took place in Q1.
As for adjusted opex, it increased by 1% (+5% YoY in Q4), excluding restructuring costs.
The adjusted EBITDA improved by 50%, reaching € 11.7 million, with the corresponding margin close to 48%. In the fourth quarter, the adjusted EBITDA improved 34% to € 4.1 million (margin of 55%).
The introduction of IFRS 16 did not generate a relevant impact in EBIT.
