Large communications groups are again recording losses. See the evolution of results

Last year, communications group losses increased in Portugal, which has chronically recorded negative results. The only exception was Media Capital (TVI), which grew from around minus 4 million euros in 2021 to almost 36.7 million in 2022 (mainly thanks to the sale of the radio business to the Bauer Media group). Conversely, Vicra Desportiva (owner of A Bola), which has since been sold to the Swiss group Ringier, recorded negative €270k, which contrasts with positive €357k in the previous year. The values ​​are based on a document from the Social Communications Regulatory Authority (ERC) which analyzes the economic and financial position of the media sector in our country in 2022.

In addition, among other groups, Global Media, which owns Diário de Notícias, Jornal de Notícias and TSF (more than two million euros of negatives), Observador (877 thousand negatives) and Público (almost 2.1 million euros). negative) returned to showing accounts in the negative.

On the other side of the “barricade” are Cofina (owns Correio da Manhã, CMTV, Negócios, Record, Flash and TV Guia), Impresa (owner of SIC and Expresso), RTP and Rádio. Renascença still has good accounts, although only Cofina increased profits compared to the previous year. Let us also mention Trust in News (the company that owns Visão, Caras, Activa and TV Mais, among other publications), which kept its net result very close to zero.

Bauer Media Group, which acquired radio stations Comercial, M80, Cidade FM and Smooth FM from Media Capital, already appears in a document published this year by the media regulator, having recorded profits of more than $4.7 million in 2022.
