FINANCIAL & OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS
- Total operating revenues down 23% year-on-year to $104.8 million
- 29% negative foreign exchange rate impact on ruble denominated
advertising revenues
- Consolidated organic operating expenses down 29% year-on-year to $58.4
million
- OIBDA of $39.2 million (Q1 2008: $55.2 million), with an OIBDA margin
of 37.4% (Q1 2008: 40.4%)
- Net income of $23.3 million (Q1 2008: $41.7 million)
- Fully diluted earnings per share of $0.15 (Q1 2008: $0.26)
first quarter revenues included the consolidation of the broadcasting
businesses acquired in 2008 and the year-on-year development reflected the
deterioration of the advertising markets, as well as the substantial
weakening of our operating currencies against the US dollar reporting
currency. However, each of our networks increased its advertising market
shares year-on-year in the first quarter. Our organic advertising revenues
were down 10% year-on-year in ruble terms, which compares with an estimated
20% decline in the Russian television advertising market over the same
period.”
“In addition, sublicensing and own production revenues now account for
over 5% of total revenues following the growth in sales of in-house produced
series and sitcoms to other broadcasters.”
“We have also managed to keep our underlying organic operating cost base
flat year-on-year in ruble terms and to substantially reduce our programming
expenses. The integration of our in-house content production businesses has
enabled us to adopt a more flexible and cost-efficient approach to forward
planning and scheduling.”
"We remain cautious in our outlook, given the adverse market conditions,
but we are well-positioned to continue to outperform the Russian television
advertising market in 2009. We are also continuing to work to optimize the
cost bases of the organic and acquired businesses. We are generating cash
with a healthy net debt free financial position and low capital investment
levels."
Operating Review
Revenues(1)
Three Months
Ended March 31,
(US$ 000's ) 2008 2009 Change
Operating revenues:
CTC Network $ 97,831 $ 70,555 -27.9%
Domashny Network 15,467 10,567 -31.7%
DTV Network - 8,667
CTC Television Station Group 19,599 10,254 -47.7%
Domashny Television Station
Group 3,199 1,739 -45.6%
DTV Station Television Group - 774
CIS Group 650 2,044 214.5%
Production Group - 178
Total operating revenues $ 136,746 $ 104,778 -23.4%
Total operating revenues were down 23% year-on-year in dollar terms and
included a full quarterly contribution from Channel 31 in
as contributions from DTV Group in
quarter of 2008 and
The reported decline in revenues reflected the substantial year-on-year
depreciation of the Company’s ruble operating currency against the US dollar
reporting currency, which had a negative impact of approximately 29% on the
Company’s ruble denominated advertising sales.
Organic revenue, when excluding the contribution of the acquired
businesses in 2008 and 2009, was down 32% year-on-year in dollar terms. This
reflected the year-on-year deterioration in the Russian television
advertising market, and the regional television advertising markets in
particular. However, each of the Company’s networks increased its advertising
market shares year-on-year.
Share of Viewing in Target Demographics
Average Audience Shares (%)
Q1 2008 Q4 2008 Q1 2009
CTC Network (all 6-54) 11.4 12.3 11.4
Domashny Network (females
25-60) 2.9 2.8 2.6
DTV Network (current target
demographic: all 25-54) 2.3 2.3 2.2
DTV Network (target
demographic prior to 2009:
all 18+) 1.9 1.9 1.9
Channel 31 (all 6-54) 7.5 16.6 12.7
The CTC flagship channel maintained its target audience share
year-on-year and its position as the fourth most watched free-to-air channel
in
prime time audience share, while comedy sketch shows 6 Frames and the newly
launched Go for it! proved successful with their target audience and a wider
family audience on weekends. Following the launch of Kremlin Guards and a new
season of Ranetki, the average target audience share in
to 12.5%.
Domashny’s audience share declined slightly year-on-year due to the
adjustment of the channel’s programming grid, in order to target a higher
proportion of younger and more affluent female viewers.
DTV has been refocused since
viewers, rather than the previously wider group of viewers over 18 years old.
DTV’s audience share in the revised target group increased in the first
quarter of 2009 and the programming schedule again featured the successful
Marital Fiction and Silent Witness series, as well as other criminal
investigation and action formats.
The Company estimates that the previously announced change in the
audience measurement system in
the finding in an updated census that the relative percentage of children in
the overall population has decreased, adversely impacted CTC’s target
audience share by approximately 0.7 percentage points but did not
significantly impact Domashny’s or DTV’s target audience shares. As stated
above, CTC successfully offset the impact and maintained its target audience
share.

Total operating expenses $ 83,714 $ 68,195 -18.5%
Total operating expenses were reduced by 19% year-on-year in dollar
terms. Organic expenses, when excluding the operations acquired since the
beginning of 2008, were reduced by 29%. The acquired operations added
million
in the first quarter of 2009.
The decrease in expenses reflected both the substantial year-on-year
reduction in programming amortization expenses, as well as the depreciation
of the Company’s ruble operating currency against the US dollar reporting
currency. The majority of CTC Media’s cost base is ruble denominated.
Approximately
in dollars in the first quarter of 2009, compared to approximately
million
Organic direct operating expenses were down 35% year-on-year in dollar
terms, while organic selling, general and administrative costs were down 15%
due to the depreciation of the ruble against the US dollar, which was
partially offset by a year-on-year increase in US dollar denominated
stock-based compensation expenses from
programming expenses were down 37% year-on-year to represent 37% of revenues,
compared to 40% in the first quarter of 2008. This decrease in programming
expenses reflected the above mentioned currency effects, lower impairment
charges, a change in the programming mix resulting in the broadcasting of
lower cost series and shows, and the effect of a change in the Company’s
amortization policy for certain types of Russian-produced programming with
effect from the beginning of 2009. The increase in sublicensing and own
production costs was consistent with the increase in sublicensing and own
production revenue, due to the growth in sales of internally produced series
and sitcoms to broadcasters in

majority of the Company’s cash deposits.
The Company’s pre-tax income amounted to
million
year-on-year to 27% (Q1 2008: 26%) due to an increase in non-deductible
expenses at the corporate level as a percentage of consolidated income before
tax and one-off income tax benefits in respect of certain advertising
expenses in the first quarter of 2008, partially offset by changes in
statutory tax rates. The Company’s effective tax rate has been positively
impacted by the decrease in the statutory income tax rates in

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement its consolidated financial statements, which are prepared
and presented in accordance with US GAAP, the Company uses the following
non-GAAP financial measures: OIBDA (on a consolidated and segment basis) and
OIBDA margin. The presentation of this financial information is not intended
to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to,
financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For
more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the
accompanying financial tables included at the end of this release.
The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and
operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period
comparisons. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures
provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and
liquidity by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of its
recurring core business operating results, meaning its operating performance
excluding certain non-cash charges. These metrics are used by management to
further its understanding of the Company’s operating performance in the
ordinary, ongoing and customary course of operations. The Company also
believes that these metrics provide investors and equity analysts with a
useful basis for analyzing operating performance against historical data and
the results of comparable companies.
OIBDA and OIBDA margin. OIBDA is defined as operating income before
depreciation and amortization (exclusive of amortization of programming
rights and sublicensing rights). OIBDA margin is defined as OIBDA divided by
total operating revenues. The most directly comparable GAAP measures to the
non-GAAP measures of OIBDA and OIBDA margin are operating income and
operating income margin, respectively. Unlike operating income, OIBDA
excludes depreciation and amortization, other than amortization of
programming rights and sublicensing rights. The purchase of programming
rights is the Company’s most significant expenditure that enables it to
generate revenues and OIBDA includes the impact of the amortization of these
rights. Expenditures for capital items such as property, plant and equipment
have a materially less significant impact on the Company’s ability to
generate revenues. For this reason, the Company excludes the related
depreciation expense for these items from OIBDA. Moreover, a significant
portion of its intangible assets were acquired in business acquisitions. The
amortization of intangible assets is therefore also excluded from OIBDA.
