Outlook
We continue to expect higher sales and margin expansion in 2014 for the Nordic pay-TV business.
The Emerging Markets pay-TV operations are growing and will also now include Trace’s results but, as said before, we are impacted by the devaluation of the Russian and Ukrainian currencies and we are currently analyzing the impact of Russia’s proposed ban on advertising on pay-TV channels from 2015.
Advertising spending trends across our 11 free-TV markets are mixed but we will continue to adjust our investments accordingly and to grow our online shares.

RépondreSupprimerMTG Outlook"(...)
We continue to expect higher sales and a higher EBIT margin for the Nordic pay-TV business for full year 2014, when compared with full year 2013.
Our Emerging Markets pay-TV operations are benefitting from the consolidation of Trace, but also experiencing material FX headwinds and already feeling the effects of the soon to be introduced Russian pay-TV channel advertising ban. The lower linear TV viewing in Scandinavia is a factor but demand for TV remains high and we do expect 2015 pricing to reflect this.
The majority of our Emerging Market free-TV operations are performing well and comps will ease in the Czech Republic from the beginning of next year.
===> The demand for our own content remains healthy and we are continuing to expand our footprint and develop our product offering. We have a number of exciting digital businesses that are being fuelled by the cash flows from our established scale operations, and our integrated operating structure positions us well for further profitable growth.(...)"
