Q1 2013 Report

18 April 2013 – Modern Times Group MTG AB (publ.) (“MTG” or “the Group”) (Nasdaq OMX Stockholm Large Cap Market: MTGA, MTGB) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended 31 March 2013.

Strong Growth In Emerging Markets

First Quarter Highlights

Net sales of SEK 3,223 (3,259) million – up 2% at constant exchange rates

Operating income of SEK 219 (341) million when excluding associated company income

Total operating income of SEK 454 (542) million when including SEK 235 (201) million of associated company income

Pre-tax profit of SEK 472 (591) million including SEK -13 (81) million non-cash impact of change in value of option element of CDON convertible bond

Net income of SEK 334 (454) million and basic earnings per share of SEK 4.73 (6.68)

Cash flow from operations of SEK 267 (334) million and net cash position of SEK 17 million compared to a net debt position of SEK 1 million in Q4 2012

Quarterly dividend payment of SEK 58 (52) million received from associated company CTC Media

Forward Expectations

As previously announced, the Group continues to expect its Nordic pay-TV business to grow its revenues at constant exchange rates in 2013, and to report an operating (EBIT) margin of approximately 10-12% for the full year 2013. The segment margin is expected to increase in 2014.

The Group also continues to expect its Emerging Market pay-TV operations to achieve a breakeven EBIT result for the full year 2013 with rising profitability levels in 2014.

Comment from President & CEO

Jørgen Madsen Lindemann, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented: “The first quarter is a seasonally small sales period but these results do indicate clear positive momentum across the business. The high sales growth in the emerging market free-TV operations reflected both the first impact of the strategic sales agreements in the Czech Republic and Bulgaria, as well as further underlying advertising market share gains in almost all of our territories on the back of higher ratings. We were the largest free-TV media house in the Czech Republic for the first time on a quarterly basis, when measured by advertising market share, and this is a significant milestone for the Group. Our Scandinavian audience shares have now stabilized or improved and we will continue to benefit from penetration gains and the addition of new channels. We will invest in momentum across our territories, in order to capture market share despite the soft overall advertising environment.”

“On the pay-TV side, the Viaplay online service in the Nordics has continued its rapid expansion and achieved record number of daily viewers, as well as consistently high customer ratings. Revenues for the Nordic pay-TV business are up as expected and primarily reflected the consolidation of the TV3 Sport channels in Denmark. The emerging market pay-TV businesses have also continued to expand rapidly by adding satellite subscribers and wholesale subscriptions year on year. We are investing in

the future growth of our Nordic and emerging markets businesses as planned and profitability levels are tracking accordingly this year ahead of rising profitability next year.”

“We convert a high proportion of our earnings into cash flow and also receive dividends from our principal associated company, so we ended the quarter in a net cash position and with an even stronger balance sheet. We have announced our intention to pay out an increased dividend to shareholders this year, but we are a growth company and are more focused than ever on reviewing a wide range of organic and M&A led investment and partnership opportunities to drive our future growth.”

The Group announced on 9 April that the MTG Nomination Committee proposes the re-election of David Chance, Mia Brunell Livfors, Blake Chandlee, Simon Duffy, Lorenzo Grabau and Alexander Izosimov as non-executive Board Directors, and the election of Michelle Guthrie as a new non-executive Board Director. The Nomination Committee also proposes the re-election of David Chance as Chairman of the Board of Directors. Cristina Stenbeck and Michael Lynton have declined re-election as Board Directors.

CTC Media, Inc. (“CTC Media”), of which MTG owns 37.9%, announced proposed changes to the company’s board of directors on 8 April. Lorenzo Grabau (a non-executive member of MTG’s Board of Directors) has been appointed as a non-executive member and co-Chairman of CTC Media’s Board of Directors following the closing of the 2013 Annual General Meeting of CTC Media shareholders on 30 April 2013, and that MTG President and Chief Executive Officer Jørgen Madsen Lindemann is proposed for election as a new non-executive member of the Board of Directors at the AGM. Please go to http://ctcmedia.ru/press-center/releases/?id=1289 for the full announcement.

CTC Media’s Board of Directors currently intends to pay cash dividends of $0.63 per share (or up to approximately $100 million in the aggregate) in 2013 and declared on 6 March that a cash dividend of $0.15 per share (or approximately $24 million in the aggregate) would be paid on or about the end of the quarter to shareholders of record as of March 20, 2013, with further dividends anticipated in the remaining quarters of 2013. MTG subsequently received SEK 58 (52) million of dividends from CTC Media on 26 March.

The Group announced on 28 January 2013 that Rikard Steiber was to be appointed to the new role of Executive Vice President and Chief Digital Officer with effect from 4 February 2013, and that Matthew Hooper was to be promoted to the new role of Executive Vice President of Group Corporate Communications with effect from 1 February 2013.

The Group announced on 17 January 2013 that it had signed channel distribution agreements to make MTG’s TV3 and TV3 PULS Danish free-TV channels available on Telenor-owned Canal Digital Denmark A/S’s satellite pay-TV platform in Denmark for the first time, and to include SBS Broadcasting’s Danish free-TV channels in MTG’s Viasat Danish pay-TV offerings for the first time. These agreements followed similar agreements in late 2012 to make MTG’s TV3 and TV3 PULS Danish free-TV channels available on Boxer TV-Access A/S’s digital terrestrial pay-TV platform in Denmark, and to include C More Entertainment AB’s Canal 8 Sport and Canal 9 pay-TV channels in MTG’s Viasat pay-TV offerings. These agreements substantially boost the Danish national perceived penetration of the TV3 and TV3 PULS channels, while also further strengthening MTG’s Viasat pay-TV offering, which now comprises all of the major free-TV channels in Denmark and the market leading portfolio of premium movie, sports and documentary channels.

Following the Group’s acquisition of the remaining shares of TV 2 Sport A/S in December 2012, the TV 2 Sport channels were rebranded as TV3 Sport and new channel TV3 Sport 2 was launched in the first quarter of 2013. The Group has therefore consolidated 100% of the TV3 Sport business since the beginning of 2013, and now includes its results in the Pay-TV Nordic segment. MTG’s 50% share in the sales and profits of the joint venture business prior to 2013 was previously included in the Central operations, eliminations & other businesses reporting line within the Viasat Broadcasting business area, but has now been moved to the Pay-TV Nordic segment for ease of comparison.

Operating Review

Group sales were up 2% y-o-y (year on year) at constant exchange rates and up 5% y-o-y at constant exchange rates when excluding closed and sold operations but including acquired businesses. The performance reflected strong y-o-y growth for the Emerging Market free-TV and pay-TV operations, as well as higher sales for the Nordic pay-TV business, which were offset by lower sales for the Free-TV Scandinavian and Other businesses.

Group operating costs were up y-o-y at constant exchange rates following ongoing investments in the Nordic pay-TV business and Emerging Markets operations. Group depreciation and amortisation charges increased y-o-y to SEK 41 (28) million following the consolidation of the more asset intensive Zitius business in Sweden from 1 September 2012.

Group net interest expenses totalled SEK -1 (-16) million and reflected the lower borrowing levels during the period. Other financial items amounted to SEK 19 (65) million, which primarily reflected positive unrealised currency exchange rate differences of SEK 41 million and also included non-cash financial losses of SEK -13 (81) million arising from the change in value of the option element of the SEK 250 million CDON Group convertible bond between the balance sheet dates.

Free-TV Scandinavia

Sales down 1% y-o-y at constant exchange rates & operating margin of 13%

Operating margin	15.4%	22.6%	15.4%	21.8%	12.8%

The y-o-y sales development primarily reflected lower sales in Sweden and Norway, which were offset to an extent by higher sales in Denmark. Both the Danish and Swedish advertising markets are estimated to have declined y-o-y, while the Norwegian market is expected to have continued to grow in the quarter. The majority of the annual up-front contract negotiations with advertisers have now been completed in each market at higher net average prices y-o-y. Segment operating costs were slightly up y-o-y at constant exchange rates.

The combined commercial target audience share for the Group’s Swedish media house of channels was slightly down y-o-y but significantly up q-o-q (quarter on quarter). The target audience shares for TV3 and TV6 were slightly down y-o-y, but TV3 was up significantly q-o-q and TV6 was up slightly compared to Q4 2012. TV8’s share was stable y-o-y and up q-o-q, while TV10’s share was up both y-o-y and q-o-q. The Swedish media house improved its ratings throughout the quarter and reported the highest ever combined target audience share in the month of March of 35.2% (34.7%) this year. The improved performance reflected the ongoing success of a number of recurring formats, as well as a number of new shows, which together indicate the positive impact of the measures taken over several quarters.

The combined commercial target audience share for the Group’s Danish media house was up both y-o-y and q-o-q. TV3’s target audience share increased substantially y-o-y after the channel was made available on both the Boxer digital terrestrial platform and Canal Digital satellite platform during the quarter. The TV3 PULS target audience share was stable both y-o-y and q-o-q, and the channel will benefit from inclusion on the Boxer and Canal Digital platforms during the year. The TV3+ audience share was down y-o-y and q-o-q but is expected to benefit from its coverage of English Premier League football from the beginning of the new season in August. The newly rebranded TV3 Sport channels have been added to the Danish media house offering in 2013 and include a wide range of high profile sports coverage. The media house advertising market share also benefited from the sales cooperation with Viacom with the MTV and VH1 channels included in the media house advertising sales from the beginning of 2013.

The combined commercial target audience share for the Group’s Norwegian media house was stable y-o-y and up q-o-q following improved prime time ratings for flagship channel TV3 with several key new local productions and new series of successful formats. The Norwegian media house reported a higher y-o-y combined target audience share of 19.3% (18.6%) in the month of March. The TV3 target audience share was down y-o-y and up q-o-q, while Viasat4’s viewing share was up y-o-y and q-o-q. As previously announced, the Group intends to launch a third free-TV channel in Norway later in 2013.

The Nordic pay-TV operations market and sell Viasat’s premium pay-TV packages and content on the Viasat satellite platform, the Viaplay online platform, and third party IPTV and cable networks. Viasat also distributes its 40 pay-TV channels via third party pay-TV networks.

The y-o-y and q-o-q segment sales growth primarily reflected the inclusion of 100% of the results of the Danish TV3 Sport channels business (previously the TV 2 Sport joint venture business) since the beginning of 2013, compared to 50% of the results for the business in prior periods. Underlying sales, when excluding the results for this business, were up slightly y-o-y at constant exchange rates.

3 (17)

Segment operating costs increased significantly y-o-y and q-o-q due to the ongoing investments in premium movie and sports content and the Viaplay online pay-TV service and the full consolidation of the rebranded TV3 Sport channels business, as well as the launch of new channel TV3 Sport 2 in Denmark in February 2013. The y-o-y increase also reflected the launch of 15 HD (High Definition) and 9 catch-up channels in 2012.

The Group continues to expect its total Nordic pay-TV subscriber base (Viasat and Viaplay) to continue to grow in 2013 and moving forward, with the ongoing decline in the Nordic satellite premium subscriber base not expected to be fully offset by growth in the Nordic third party network subscriber base in 2013.

The Group also continues to expect its Nordic pay-TV revenues to grow at constant exchange rates in 2013 following the full consolidation of the TV3 Sport business from the beginning of 2013, and for the Nordic pay-TV business to report an operating (EBIT) margin of approximately 10-12% for the full year 2013 and for the segment margin to increase in 2014.

The Group’s premium subscriber base, when excluding the rapidly growing Viaplay online subscriber base, declined y-o-y and q-o-q as anticipated. The decline in third party subscribers reflected a restatement of subscriber volumes by a distribution partner. Annualised average revenue per premium satellite subscriber (ARPU) continued to grow as anticipated and was up 2% y-o-y to SEK 4,955 (4,866) and slightly down q-o-q from SEK 4,988 due to the strength of the Swedish krona reporting currency. The y-o-y performance reflected the continued growth in the HD subscriber base and previously introduced price increases, and was even higher y-o-y at constant exchange rates.

Following the signing of a number of distribution agreements in late 2012 and early 2013, the Group has strengthened its Danish pay-TV offering to now include all of the major free-TV channels with its market leading portfolio of premium movie, sports and documentary channels. The Group also signed an exclusive multi-year agreement with BSkyB in February 2013 to distribute the Sky Sports News HD channel in its Viasat pay-TV offerings across the Nordic countries. A new distribution agreement has also now been signed with TV2 Norway in Norway to add the TV 2 Zebra sports and entertainment channel to the Viasat satellite platform from 1 May 2013. Viasat satellite subscribers will also be able to access TV2 Group’s on-demand library through their internet connected set-top boxes.

The Group launched the new dedicated Olympics content pay-TV channel Viasat 2014 in Sweden at the beginning of March 2013. The channel is available on the Viasat satellite platform in Sweden and has been launched ahead of the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, coverage of which will be exclusively broadcast on MTG’s TV channels in Sweden.

Viaplay has continued to report strong subscriber intake and achieved record daily viewing figures around a number of key sports events during the quarter. Viaplay has continued to enhance its customer offering and interface and is now available on virtually any type of internet connected device. The monthly price for Viaplay’s top tier TV, movies and sports package was raised at the beginning of the year in Sweden from SEK 199 to SEK 249, and in Denmark in February from DKK 199 to DKK 229.

The Group’s Emerging Markets free-TV operations comprise a total of 23e free-TV channels in the Baltics, the Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Hungary and Ghana. Segment sales were up significantly y-o-y at constant exchange rates driven by the sales co-operations in the Czech Republic and Bulgaria, healthy underlying sales growth and higher advertising market shares in almost all of the Group’s operating territories, as well as the consolidation of the LNT operations in Latvia from the beginning of June of 2012.

Segment operating costs were up significantly y-o-y partly driven by the sales co-operations but also by further investments in programming, in order to capitalise on its ongoing momentum, the launch of Prima ZOOM and the consolidation of the costs of the LNT operations. The profitability of the advertising sales co-operations in the Czech Republic and Bulgaria is more impacted by seasonality than the Group’s own operations as the MTG local operations acquire partners’ commercial inventory at fixed annual wholesale prices but sell the inventory as part of the media house offering at the seasonal price variations. Despite these cost increases, as well as the losses in Hungary and ongoing investments in Ghana, segment operating profitability improved y-o-y for the sixth consecutive quarter, and more than tripled y-o-y with an increased operating margin.

Sales for the Group’s combined Baltic free-TV operations were up 23% y-o-y at constant exchange rates and reflected the consolidation of LNT in Latvia from June 2012, as well as underlying growth in Latvia and Estonia. Sales for the Lithuanian operations were stable y-o-y. The Latvian and Estonian TV advertising markets are both estimated to have grown y-o-y, while the Lithuanian market is estimated to have declined. The Group’s Latvian media house target audience share has been boosted by the addition of the LNT channels. The increase in the Lithuanian media house target audience share was driven by gains for both secondary channels following digitalisation, whilst the Estonian media house target audience share was stable q-o-q but down y-o-y following the previously reported increase in competing Russian language programming in particular. The Group’s media houses have the largest combined target audience shares in each of the Baltic countries.

The Group’s Czech operations reported 29% y-o-y sales growth at constant exchange rates, which reflected the new advertising sales cooperation with TV Barrandov, further advertising market share gains and the successful launch of fourth channel Prima ZOOM in February. The Czech TV advertising market is estimated to have declined y-o-y in the quarter. The development in the Czech media house target audience share reflected lower ratings for the Prima Family channel, which were offset by the successful launch of the Prima ZOOM channel and higher ratings for Prima COOL. Prima LOVE’s audience share was stable y-o-y and q-o-q.

The Group’s Bulgarian operations reported 29% y-o-y sales growth at constant exchange rates following continued high ratings and the previously announced advertising sales co-operations with nine international channels. The Bulgarian TV advertising market is estimated to have continued to decline y-o-y in the quarter. The Bulgarian media house target audience share was up significantly y-o-y and stable at the new level q-o-q following the continued successful performance of a number of key locally produced shows.

Sales for the Group’s Hungarian operations were down 1% y-o-y at constant exchange rates. The Hungarian TV advertising market is estimated to have continued to decline y-o-y. Sales for the Group’s Viasat1 channel in Ghana grew by 37% y-o-y at constant exchange rates, as the channel continued to increase its share of the growing Ghanaian TV advertising market.

Viasat’s Emerging Market pay-TV operations market and sell pay-TV packages on the Viasat satellite platforms in the Baltics and Ukraine, and on the joint venture Raduga TV satellite platform in Russia. Viasat also distributes 34 channels via third party pay-TV networks to subscribers in 31 countries across Central and Eastern Europe, Africa and the United States. The Viaplay online pay-TV service was launched in Russia in March 2012.

The y-o-y sales growth at constant exchange rates reflected continued healthy subscriber intake, and growth across the 3rd party networks in Russia and Eastern Europe. Viasat’s Emerging Markets satellite pay-TV platforms added 49,000 net new subscribers y-o-y, with the q-o-q performance reflecting the usual seasonal effects following strong subscriber intake in the fourth quarter. The wholesale minipay channel business added over 19 million subscriptions y-o-y and over 1 million subscriptions q-o-q.

Sales of the Group’s premium package of four HD channels in Russia, Ukraine and the CIS, which started in the beginning of December, are progressing according to plan, and the package is already made available on several leading networks in Russia.

The Group has just signed an agreement with Inter Media Group to include its Inter, NTN, K1, Mega, K2, Pixel, Enter Film and MTV Ukraine free-TV channels on the Viasat Ukraine platform this April. These channels together account for a more than 22% share of viewing (18-54) and Viasat Ukraine’s package now includes all of the major Ukrainian free-TV channels.

Segment operating costs increased significantly y-o-y but were stable q-o-q, which reflected the previously announced investments in premium content and launch of the HD Premium package Russia and Ukraine. The segment therefore reported a small operating loss for the quarter.

As previously announced, the Group also continues to expect its Emerging Market pay-TV operations to achieve a breakeven EBIT result for the full year 2013.

The segment comprises the Group’s Radio and MTG Studios operations. The Group’s radio operations comprise national commercial networks in Sweden and Norway, as well as national and local stations in the Baltics. MTG Studios comprises the Group’s content production businesses in Scandinavia, Europe and Africa.

Segment sales were down 17% y-o-y at constant exchange rates when excluding the contribution of the Bet24 operations, which were sold in May 2012, but including the consolidation of the Paprika Latino production company from September 2012. The performance reflected a substantial decline in Swedish radio advertising sales as the Group’s operation of 20 NRJ licenses in Sweden came to an end on 31 December 2012, as well as lower y-o-y sales for the MTG Studios business, which were offset to an extent by growth in the Norwegian radio business.

Segment operating costs were down y-o-y at constant exchange rates, when excluding the impact of the Bet24 operations but including the consolidation of Paprika Latino, and reflected lower y-o-y costs in the MTG Studios business as well as cost reductions implemented in the Swedish radio operations. The segment reported an operating loss in the quarter.
