Mexico City, February 20, 2020- Grupo Televisa, S.A.B. (NYSE:TV; BMV: TLEVISA CPO; "Televisa" or "the Company"), today announced results for full year and fourth quarter 2019. The results have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").
In 2018, Content sales and operating segment income benefited by Ps.2,733.6 million and by Ps.1,410.5 million, respectively, from the non-recurring licensing of certain broadcast and digital rights of the World Cup in Latin America in 2018 (the "non-recurring licensing revenue").
The following table sets forth condensed consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, in millions of Mexican pesos, excluding the non-recurring licensing revenue:

Net sales, excluding non-recurring licensing revenue, increased by 3.0% to Ps.101,492.2 million in 2019 compared with Ps.98,548.7 million in 2018. This increase was mainly attributable to revenue growth in the Cable segment. Operating segment income grew 5.4%, reaching Ps.41,015.1 million with a margin of 38.7%.
The following table sets forth condensed consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, in millions of Mexican pesos. The table includes the abovementioned non-recurring licensing revenue so the results presented are not comparable year-over-year:

Net income attributable to stockholders of the Company amounted to Ps.4,722.1 million for 2019, compared with Ps.6,009.4 million for 2018. The net decrease of Ps.1,287.3 million, or 21.4%, mainly reflected:

Sky
Year-over-year, the number of video RGUswas lower by 207.7 thousand. This is mainly explained by a lower number video RGUs given the disconnections in fourth quarter 2018 and first quarter 2019 that followed Sky's transmission of the Soccer World Cup in 2018. Subsequent to this effect, Sky added video RGUs in each of the last three quarters of 2019 and closed year with 7.4 million. In addition, Sky closed the year with 169,692 video RGUs in Central America and the Dominican Republic.
During 2019 Sky continued expanding its broadband operations with the addition of 294 thousand broadband RGUs. It closed the year with 386 thousand broadband RGUs.

Fourth quarter salesdecreased by 1.5% to Ps.5,379.1 million compared with Ps.5,461.9 million in fourth quarter 2018.

Full year advertising salesdecreased by 8.2%. The decrease is substantially explained by a significant drop in government advertising. Core private sector advertising sales were down by 1.8% for the full year.
Network Subscription
Fourth quarter Network Subscription revenuesincreased by 1.9% to Ps.1,276.0 million compared with Ps.1,251.6 million in fourth quarter 2018.
Full year Network Subscription revenueincreased by 2.6%, mainly due to a price increase.
Licensing and Syndication

Royalties from Univision increased 15.2%, reaching U.S.$101.3 million dollars in fourth quarter 2019 compared to U.S.$88.0 million dollars in fourth quarter 2018.

7
Other Businesses
Fourth quarter salesdecreased by 17.5% to Ps.1,933.9 million compared with Ps.2,344.0 million in fourth quarter 2018. The decrease is mainly explained by lower revenues in our film distribution and publishing businesses.
Full year salesincreased by 6.3% to Ps.8,200.3 million compared with Ps.7,715.5 million in 2018. The increase in revenues was mainly driven by performance in our soccer and gaming businesses, partially compensated by our publishing and film distribution businesses.
Fourth quarter operating segment incomedecreased by 27.8% to Ps.96.7 million compared with Ps.133.9 million in fourth quarter 2018. The decrease is mainly explained by the performance in our film distribution and soccer businesses.
Full year operating segment incomeincreased by 256.7% to Ps.1,464.2 million compared with Ps.410.5 million in 2018, mainly reflecting an increase in soccer, gaming and film distribution businesses, partially compensated by the performance of our publishing business.
Corporate Expense
Corporate expense decreased by Ps.266.3 million, or 12.4%, to Ps.1,888.4 in 2019, from Ps.2,154.7 million in 2018. This decrease reflected primarily a lower share-based compensation expense.
Share-based compensation expense in 2019 and 2018, amounted to Ps.1,129.6 million and Ps.1,327.5 million, respectively, and was accounted for as corporate expense. Share-based compensation expense is measured at fair value at the time the equity benefits are conditionally sold to officers and employees and is recognized over the vesting period.
Other Income or Expense, Net
Other income or expense, net, changed by Ps.2,657.9 million, to other expense, net, of Ps.1,095.6 million in 2019, from other income, net, of Ps.1,562.3 million in 2018. This unfavorable change reflected primarily:
- the absence in 2019 of a Ps.3,513.8 million pretax gain on disposition of our 19.9% stake in Imagina Media Audiovisual, S. L. ("Imagina"), a Spanish media group, which sale was closed in June 2018; and
- a higher expense related to legal, financial and accounting advisory and professional services.
8
These unfavorable variances were mainly offset by:
- the absence in 2019 of other taxes paid by Sky in Central America in 2018;
- a lower loss on disposition of property and equipment; and III. interest income on asset tax recovered from prior years.
The following table sets forth the breakdown of cash and non-cash other (expense) income, net, stated in millions of Mexican pesos, for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

Total | (1,095.6) | 1,562.3 |
Finance Expense, Net
The following table sets forth finance (expense) income, net, stated in millions of Mexican pesos for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.
2019 | 2018 | (Increase) | |
Decrease | |||
Interest expense | (10,402.0) | (9,707.3) | (694.7) |
Interest income | 1,529.1 | 1,567.1 | (38.0) |
Foreign exchange gain, net | 935.3 | 220.1 | 715.2 |
Other finance expense, net | (873.2) | (859.6) | (13.6) |
Finance expense, net | (8,810.8) | (8,779.7) | (31.1) |
Finance expense, net, increased by Ps.31.1 million, or 0.4%, to Ps.8,810.8 million in 2019, from Ps.8,779.7 million in 2018.
This increase reflected:
- a Ps.694.7 million increase in interest expense, primarily due to a higher average principal amount of debt in 2019, as well as interest expense in the amount of Ps.426.5 million related to additional lease liabilities recognized beginning on January 1, 2019, in connection with the adoption of IFRS 16, which became effective on that date;
- a Ps.38.0 million decrease in interest income, primarily explained by a lower average amount of cash equivalents; and
- a Ps.13.6 million increase in other finance expense, net, resulting primarily from changes in fair value of our derivative contracts.
These unfavorable variances were partially offset by a Ps.715.2 million increase in foreign exchange gain, net, resulting primarily from the effect of a 4.0% appreciation of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar in 2019, in comparison with a 0.2% appreciation in 2018, on our average net U.S. dollar liability position.
9
Share of Income of Associates and Joint Ventures, Net
Share of income of associates and joint ventures, net, increased by Ps.48.2 million, or 9.0%, to Ps.581.1 million in 2019, from Ps.532.9 million in 2018. This increase reflected mainly a higher share of income of Univision Holdings, Inc. or UHI, the controlling company of Univision Communications Inc., which was partially offset by the absence of share of income of Ocesa Entretenimiento, S.A. de C.V. ("OCEN"), for the last five months of 2019, as we classified our investment in OCEN as current assets held for sale, in connection with a related sale agreement.
