BUSINESS OUTLOOK

The Company’s business in 2011 will evidently be shaped by the overall macroeconomic environment. As discussed briefy in this Management Report, this year is likely to be one of transition, with no major economic rebound in the cards.

Against this backdrop and with the Cuatro acquisition complete, the advertising strategy will focus on boosting prices and raising market share. As for audience, Telecinco’s aim is to remain the leader among commercial networks and keep the highest viewer rating for its entire set of channels. In both cases, the efcient integration of Cuatro’s business into the Group’s activities is a priority for 2011.

Other main objectives include maintaining a solid fnancial and equity position, and reinforcing the Internet business strategy.
