Corporate presentation summary
17 May, 2026Strategic direction and priorities
Transitioning from a diversified group to a focused entertainment powerhouse in the DACH region, leveraging MFE for pan-European scale and growth through financial discipline.
Five key priorities: investing in local/live content, expanding multi-platform reach, diversifying monetization, leveraging tech & AI, and maintaining cost discipline.
Strategy adapts to fragmented user behavior, shifting from Joyn-centric to a broad multi-platform approach, maximizing total video reach and hybrid monetization.
Emphasis on local content, strong brands, and cross-platform distribution to differentiate from competitors and drive audience engagement.
Ongoing portfolio evaluation based on financial merits, with a focus on core entertainment assets.
Financial performance and outlook
Q1 2026 group revenues declined 9% to €775m, mainly due to macroeconomic uncertainty and portfolio changes, but EBITDA rose to €44m from -€6m, reflecting cost discipline.
Entertainment segment revenues fell 8%, but EBITDA increased 62% due to cost management and lower programming expenses.
Commerce & Dating segment saw organic revenue growth of 6% despite an 11% reported decline, with strong performance from flaconi and Aroundhome.
Net financial debt increased to €1,463m, reflecting exceptional cash expenses and M&A activities; deleveraging remains a priority.
FY 2026 outlook confirmed: moderate revenue decline, significant EBITDA increase, and stable net debt expected.
