Canal+: revenues of €1.372bn in the first quarter of 2020 (+1% at constant currency and perimeter)

"For the first quarter of 2020, Canal+ Group's revenues were €1.372bn, a 9.6% increase compared to the same period in 2019 (up 1% at constant currency and perimeter). This trend was driven in particular by the growth in revenues from international pay-tv operations," announced Vivendi, parent company of the free and pay TV group Canal+, on 20/04/2020.

"Revenues from television operations in mainland France decreased slightly (down 0.7% at constant currency and perimeter). The individual subscriber base to Canal+ offers continued to grow, with a net gain of 62,000 subscribers year-on-year," said Vivendi. 

"The current Covid-19 health crisis is affecting all of Canal+ Group's revenue sources. Canal+ Group is taking action to ensure the continuity of most of its operations and to implement solidarity initiatives, while increasing its vigilance in reviewing expenditures and investments," added Vivendi.
