(CercleFinance.com) - Group sales rose by 1.
8% to E2,872m in H1 2024 (H1 2023: E2,820m), mainly due to higher TV advertising revenues and a significant increase in streaming revenues, partly offset by lower Fremantle content revenues.

Profit from continuing operations rose by 42.9% to E110m (vs. E77m). Total group profit rose by 31.1% to E173m (vs. E132m).
Overall, our financial performance in H1 2024 was in line with our expectations, and we confirm our full-year forecasts, the group says.
