1H 2016 Performance and outlook
• Circulation revenues at € 122.2 M, decreasing by 4.7%, in a
market down 7.7%.
• Total advertising revenues were down 3.8%: radio was flat
while print and the internet were affected by critical market
trends
• EBITDA was in line with the previous year
• Net income difference is due to the extraordinary gains of €
9.3 M in H 2015 (and €1M in 1H 2016) related to the sale of
Deejay TV to Discovery in January 2015
• As for the 2016 outlook, despite an uncertain evolution of the
advertising market in the second half, Espresso should be
able to achieve a net result, excluding non- recurring items,
in line with that of the previous year

group, while the other key shareholders will have representation rights
