Grupo Clarín S.A.: Grupo Clarín Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2018 Results

BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA / ACCESSWIRE / March 11, 2019 / Grupo Clarín S.A. ('Grupo Clarín' or the 'Company' - LSE: GCLA; BCBA: GCLA), the largest media company in Argentina, announced today its fourth quarter and full year 2018 results. Figures in this report have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (*) ('IFRS') and are stated in constant Argentine Pesos as of December 31, 2018, unless otherwise indicated.
(*) The Company's Management has applied IAS 29 in the preparation of these financial statements (inflation adjustment) because Resolution 777/18, issued by the Comisión Nacional de Valores ('CNV'), establishes that the restatement will be applied to the annual financial statements, for intermediate and special periods ended as of December 31, 2018 inclusive.

Highlights (FY18 vs.FY17):

    • Total Revenues reached Ps. 19,254.1 million, a decrease of 16.1% compared to 2017, mainly due to lower advertising revenues in the Broadcasting and Programming and the Printing and Publishing segments.
    • Adjusted EBITDA (1) reached Ps. 1,288.8 million, a decrease of 29.2% compared to 2017, mainly driven by a lower EBITDA in the Broadcasting and Programming segment.
    • Grupo Clarín's Adjusted EBITDA Margin (2) was 6.7% in 2018, compared to 7.9% in 2017.
    • Income for the period 2018 totaled Ps. (882.4) million, a decrease of 141.7% compared to Ps. 2,113.8 million reported in 2017 (includes Cablevisión's results). Income for the period attributable to Equity Shareholders amounted Ps (856) million in 2018 from Ps. 1,106.7 million in 2017, a 177.3% decline.

(1) We define Adjusted EBITDA as Total Revenues minus cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) and selling and administrative expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization). We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful measure of our performance. It is commonly used to analyze and compare media companies based on operating performance, leverage and liquidity. Nonetheless, Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net income or cash flow from operations and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, an indication of our financial performance, an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or a measure of liquidity. Other companies may compute Adjusted EBITDA in a different manner; therefore, Adjusted EBITDA as reported by other companies may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA as we report it.

(2) We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA over Total Revenues.
