ABS-CBN’s Recurring Income for 9 Months Up by 10% Fuelled by Strong Advertising Revenues and Consumer Sales

Posted on November 16, 2012 | 11:52 AM

The consolidated net income of ABS-CBN Corporation (“ABS-CBN” or the “Company”) (PSE: ABS, ABSP), the country’s largest multimedia conglomerate, registered P1.555 billion for the first nine months of 2012, down by 31% compared with P2.240 billion in the same period last year. Removing the effects of the gain from the sale of Sky Cable PDRs recognized in the first nine months of 2011 amounting to P825 million, net income increased by 10%. The growth in recurring income was fuelled by strong advertising revenues and consumer sales in the third quarter.

ABS-CBN generated consolidated revenues of P24.0 billion from advertising and consumer sales for the first nine months, a 13% increase compared to the same period last year.

ABS-CBN’s advertising revenues reached P14.5 billion in the first nine months of the year, an increase of 8% from a year ago. Consumer sales for the nine month period amounted to P9.5 billion, posting a 21% increase. Sky Cable continues to be a major driver of growth with revenues increasing by 29% to P4.1 billion. The growth in revenues is partly attributable to the full quarter effect of the acquisition of Destiny Cable.

Total operating and other expenses increased by 14% year-on-year to P19.4 billion brought about by increases in production costs, cost of sales and services , and general and administrative expenses.

Capital expenditure and film and program rights acquisition for the nine month period amounted to P3.5 billion, 8% higher than the level of spending for the same period last year.

ABS-CBN maintained its national audience share and ratings leadership for Urban and Rural audiences with prime-time audience share averaging 49% in the third quarter of 2012, a 21 percentage point lead over GMA’s, based on the Kantar National TV Ratings.
