Third-quarter sales increased 7.1% to Ps.5,860.5 million compared with Ps.5,471.9 million in third quarter 2009. This increase reflects additional advertising sales derived from programs produced around the remaining eight Soccer World Cup matches transmitted in July, as well as strong ratings generated by novelas such as Soy tu Dueña and Llena de Amor, and reality shows such as Décadas. Upfront deposits represented 80.8% of revenues during the quarter and the remaining were sales in the spot market. This figure compares with 82.1% in third quarter 2009.
|
Third-quarter operating segment income increased 4% to Ps.2,805.2 million compared with Ps.2,696.5 million in third quarter 2009; the margin was 47.9%. The increase in costs and expenses is explained mainly by non-recurrent charges such as the cost of the Soccer World Cup and the production of programs related to the 200th anniversary of the Mexican independence and the 100th anniversary of the Mexican revolution. Year to date the margin has decreased 123 basis points compared with the same period last year.
|
|
Pay Television Networks
|
Third-quarter sales increased 17.7% to Ps.809.6 million compared with Ps.687.9 million in third quarter 2009. The increase was driven by higher revenues from channels sold in Mexico, higher advertising sales, and the continued success of Televisa Deportes Network (“TDN”), our sports network. As of September 30, 2010, and through our cable and DTH affiliates worldwide, our Pay Television Networks business reached 25 million subscribers each carrying an average of 5.2 Televisa pay-TV channels each. This is equivalent to a total revenue generating unit (“RGU”) base of 132 million. The growth in RGUs was driven by strong demand of well-performing channels such as Clasico TV and Golden LA in Argentina and Colombia, respectively.
|
Third-quarter operating segment income increased 3.7% to Ps.412.9 million compared with Ps.398 million in third quarter 2009, and the margin was 51%. This margin decline reflects higher sales that were partially offset by costs and expenses of Ps.68.1 million related to TDN and ForoTV, launched in August 2009 and February 2010, respectively.
|
|
Programming Exports
|
Third-quarter sales increased 2% to Ps.771.1 million compared with Ps.755.8 million in third quarter 2009. This is attributable to an increase in royalties from Univision, from US$38 million in third quarter 2009 to US$42.3 million in third quarter 2010, as well as higher revenues from Europe. These favorable effects were partially offset by lower programming sales in Latin America as well as a negative translation effect on foreign-currency-denominated sales.
|
Third-quarter operating segment income decreased 12.3% to Ps.371.2 million compared with Ps.423.3 million in third quarter 2009, and the margin was 48.1%. These results reflect mainly higher amortization of co-produced programming, payment of royalties, and collaboration on productions in Asia and Africa.
|
|
Publishing
|
Third-quarter sales decreased marginally by 0.9% to Ps.787.7 million compared with Ps.795 million in third quarter 2009. The decrease was driven primarily by lower circulation revenues abroad and in Mexico as a result of our restructuring of the business and, to a lesser extent by, a negative translation effect on foreign-currency-denominated sales, both offset by higher advertising revenues abroad.
|
Third-quarter operating segment income increased 160.7% to Ps.91.5 million compared with Ps.35.1 million in third quarter 2009, and the margin was 11.6%. The improvement in the margins was driven mainly by lower paper and printing costs in connection with the restructuring process as well as a positive translation effect on foreign-currency-denominated costs.
|
|
Sky
|
Third-quarter sales increased 15.5% to Ps.2,894.9 million compared with Ps.2,507.4 million in the same period of 2009. The growth is explained principally by an increase in the subscriber base in Mexico by 926 thousand subscribers during the last twelve months. The growth in Mexico is driven mainly by the success of Sky´s new low-cost offerings and the transmission of the remaining eight games of the Soccer World Cup, three of which were exclusive to Sky. These results were partially offset by a negative translation effect on sales in Central America and the Dominican Republic, which are denominated in US dollars. As of September 30, 2010, the number of gross active subscribers increased to 2,753,047 (including 149,057 commercial subscribers), compared with 1,816,359 (including 139,819 commercial subscribers) as of September 30, 2009. This is equivalent to a growth of 51.6% year over year.
|
Third-quarter operating segment income increased 29.3% to Ps.1,398.3 million compared with Ps.1,081.7 million in third quarter 2009, and the margin reached 48.3%. The improvement in margins results from higher sales and the absence this quarter of the costs associated with the transmission of the 2010 Soccer World Cup that were incurred in third quarter 2009.
|
|
Cable and Telecom
|
Third-quarter sales increased 37.1% to Ps.3,002.5 million compared with Ps.2,190.3 million in the same period of 2009. This increase was attributable to i) the addition of approximately 385 thousand RGUs in Cablevisión and Cablemás during the last twelve months, of which 68 thousand were added during third quarter 2010; ii) the consolidation of TVI since October 1, 2009 which grew by approximately 16 thousand RGUs during the quarter; and iii) the increase in revenues in Bestel. Cablevisión, Cablemás, and Bestel net sales increased 17.3%, 12.9%, and 23.4%, respectively.

Third-quarter operating segment income increased 25.9% to Ps.946.5 million compared with Ps.752 million in third quarter 2009, and the margin was 31.5%. Excluding Bestel, the margin for the cable operations alone was, on the aggregate, 36.9%, compared with 38.3% in second quarter 2010. These results reflect higher sales and a positive translation effect on foreign-currency-denominated costs and include higher costs and expenses resulting from the consolidation of TVI and the costs inherent in the growth in the subscriber base.
The following table sets forth the breakdown of revenues and operating segment income, excluding consolidation adjustments, for our four cable and telecom subsidiaries for the quarter.

|
|
Other Businesses
|
Third-quarter sales decreased 7.9% to Ps.981.1 million compared with Ps.1,065.4 million in third quarter 2009. This decrease is explained mainly by lower sales in our feature-film distribution business due to the termination of an agreement with Warner Bros. Pictures in December 2009, partially offset by higher sales in our soccer, gaming, and radio businesses. Our gaming business performed well due to the continued success of the soccer-related lottery game launched early this year and the radio business continued to benefit from additional Soccer World Cup advertising revenues as well as an increase in rates.
|
Third-quarter operating segment loss was Ps.32.2 million compared with a Ps.30.9 million loss in third quarter 2009, reflecting principally lower sales in our feature-film distribution business and higher cost of sales in our soccer business. This negative effect was partially offset by lower costs of sales and operating expenses mainly in our feature-film distribution and publishing distribution businesses.
