1 Latin American TV (8th Edition) Highlights By 2010, pay TV revenues in Latin America are forecast to be nearly US$11 billion double the 2002 figure. Pay TV subscriptions are anticipated to reach 25.6 million. The region is forecast to triple from 3.9 million digital subscribers at end-2003 to 12.7 million by Brazil and Mexico combined accounted for 70% of digital subs by end-2003, but this share will fall to 54% in 2010 as the other countries thrive. By 2010, 12.7 million homes will receive digital signals, or 12% of TV households. A further 14 million homes will still take analogue cable signals, or 13% of TV households. Therefore, threequarters of TV households will not receive multichannel services, revealing a significant potential market. By 2010, Latin America is forecast to have 20.6 million cable and MMDS subscribers, up 5 million on This means that 19% of the region's TV households will take cable or MMDS services. These homes will generate revenues of US$8.4 billion. Of this total, 6.5 million homes will subscribe to digital cable services by 2010 or 6.0% of TV households in the region.

14 SUMMARY Latin America is slowly crawling out of recession. The region s problems are exacerbated by the reliance of most economies on other markets. This happens both within the region, such as Uruguay with Argentina and Brazil, and outside the region as the state of the U.S. economy impacts Latin America. Low inflation and high GDP growth enjoyed in the late 1990s were replaced by high inflation rates, low investment, political turmoil and low growth. Heavy debt loads incurred during the fast expansion period, spurred by the healthy economic environment in the late 1990s, have further added to the problems. Additionally, many companies cancelled IPOs and other financial instruments due to the poor market conditions and the reluctance to take risks. Despite this gloomy picture many of these economies started to come out of recession in late Many of the region s currencies have appreciated against the dollar. Exchange rate fluctuations had caused havoc with rocketing local prices of imports from the U.S. This has had a detrimental effect on the TV sector as many cable and satellite operators pay international channels in US$ but receive subscription and ad revenues in local currencies. Operators sometimes pass on these extra costs to their subscribers, causing high churn. Dollar denomination contracts also lead to greater piracy and subscriber underreporting by some operators. DirecTV Latin America declared bankruptcy as it could not renegotiate dollardenominated deals into local currencies and/or reduce its dollar-denominated debts. The result of this uncertainty was that the region s pay TV revenues and subscriptions both fell in However, there was a small recovery in 2003, due to the upturn in the second half of the year. By 2010, pay TV revenues in Latin America are forecast to nearly US$11 billion double the 2002 figure. Pay TV subscriptions are anticipated to reach 25.6 million. Several factors have pulled the TV sector out of recession. Additional revenues resulting from telecoms deregulation encouraged cable operators to upgrade their networks to a standard that provides voice, internet and digital TV services. Operators that upgrade can enhance their TV offerings, adding new services such as pay-per-view movies and tiering. Due to overbuilding, operators traditionally provided large basic packages and no premium programming. Tiering channels, which were available on their competitors basic packages, would have lost them subscribers. Consolidation has, however, severely reduced the field of players, allowing operators to upgrade without the fear of losing subs. Wealthier operators will be able to buildout and upgrade faster than the traditional single network operators. 3

DTT multichannel free signals are considered ideal for poorer neighbourhoods, but DTT is not expected to launch until the end of the decade. Puerto Rico is expected to enjoy the highest digital penetration by 2010, at 43% of TV households, with the island benefitting from its close relationship with the U.S. Puerto Rico will be followed by Chile, Argentina and Mexico. Among the main countries, Colombia will have the lowest penetration, due to the widespread availability of pirate signals. 4

A further 14 million homes will still take analogue cable signals, or 13% of TV households. Therefore, three-quarters of TV households will not receive multichannel services, revealing a significant potential market. By 2010, Latin America is forecast to have 20.6 million cable and MMDS subscribers, up 5 million on This means that 19% of the region s TV households will take cable or MMDS services. These homes will generate revenues of US$8.4 billion. Of this total, 6.5 million homes will subscribe to digital cable services by 2010 or 6.0% of TV households in the region. Cable operators were obliged to improve their services following the success of the digital DTH packages DirecTV Latin America and Sky. However, many of these upgrades have been put on hold due to the economic problems. Luckily for the cable operators, Sky and DirecTV have also seen a slowdown in subscriber numbers. These two DTH operators had 3 million digital subs by end-2003, down 4% on the previous year. The digital DTH subs count is likely to reach 4.4 million by 2010, generating US$2.3 billion for the operators and representing 4.2% of TV households. DSL is still very new to Latin America, and none of these operators is offering video services at present. Latin America is forecast to have 539,000 DSL entertainment subscribers by 2010, representing 0.5% of TV households and generating revenues of US$215 million. Though most governments are yet to reveal firm plans, digital terrestrial TV services are assumed to start towards the end of the decade. Non-cable, satellite and DSL entertainment homes are the target for these signals. By 2010, Latin America is forecast to have 1.3 million DTT homes, representing 1% of TV households. 5

Source: Informa Media Group TV revenues from cable, satellite and DSL entertainment are expected to reach US$11 billion in 2010, an 86% increase on the 2003 figure. Of the 2010 sum, cable will represent 77% of the total. Digital DTH subscriptions will bring in 21% of the total, and DSL entertainment 2%. Brazil, Mexico and Argentina will provide 22%, 22% and 25% of the 2010 total, respectively. Colombia is the fastest growing nation, rising 161% in the decade to 2010, though the country suffers one of the highest inflation rates in the region. The Colombian figures are for legitimate subscribers only, the country has a serious piracy problem. Revenues per subscriber have steadily risen, and are likely to continue to do so, especially between 2005 and The reason for this is the greater adoption of digital packages, which offer a wider array of services. DTH has the highest revenues per subscriber, but digital cable subscribers spend similar amounts. These figures do not include cable internet or telephony services. Cable/MMDS Prior to the recession, many companies had plans for substantial cable investment, which involved either upgrading networks or expanding to new areas. Consolidation removed the threat of overbuilding and allowed operators to offer tiering without the fear of losing subscribers. A major incentive for cable upgrades is telecoms deregulation. The possibility of new revenue streams encouraged significant investment, though many plans were curtailed following the onset of the recession. Upgraded networks not only allow for the introduction of telephony and internet services, but also provide for a far wider range of TV channels, including PPV and tiering. 6

Digital DTH Rumours suggest that Sky and DirecTV will merge their DTH operations following News Corp. s acquisition of a significant stake in Hughes Electronics. Hughes has a 34% shareholding in DirecTV Latin America and News Corp. already owns part of Sky Latin America.

Source: TV International A merger may also be on the cards as DirecTV Latin America is in Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The bankruptcy was forced by the region s economic problems, which saw many potential subscribers tighten their belts, as well as the company having to pay programmers in US$ denominated deals, but receiving subscription fees in local currencies that lost ground against the US$. Furthermore, local partners to both platforms have proved reluctant to increase their investments. 8
20 SUMMARY For the time being the two operations continue to work independently. In fact, they only compete in four Latin American markets (Brazil, Chile, Mexico and Colombia). Sky pulled out of Argentina in June 2002 due partly to high cable penetration and competition from DirecTV. Sky concentrates on the main markets whereas DirecTV takes a broad brush approach to the whole region and is active in 28 territories.

21 SUMMARY LATIN AMERICAN TV Revenues per subscriber are higher for digital DTH than for cable. By committing themselves to buy the equipment, digital DTH subscribers are more willing to pay for different TV services. Due to the sheer number of channels and services on offer, digital DTH operators offer an array of tiered packages to suit a variety of subscribers.

U.S. regulators approved the deal in December Had the deal been struck a year or two earlier, the logical outcome was a merger for their rival Latin American DTH platforms - Hughes DirecTV Latin America and Sky Latin America. But that is no longer an automatic move. While News Corp s Sky platform is growing, DirecTV Latin America has been going backwards, leading to its bankruptcy filing in March 2003, which followed heavy earnings and subscriber losses. In December 2003 DirecTV Latin America filed a reorganisation plan in an effort to remove itself from Chapter 11. This was approved in January 2004 and the operator is set to move out of the Chapter 11 process in 1Q Once this process has been completed, the company s future direction should become clearer. 10

In connection with rights granted at the time GC became a stakeholder in DLA, Raven Media, an affiliate of GC, asserted, during the bankruptcy proceeding, that DLA was contractually obligated to repurchase Raven s 3.98% interest for US$195 million. DLA s response was to file a motion with the Bankruptcy Court to reject its obligation. In August 2003 the Bankruptcy Court granted DLA s motion. However the motion was being appealed by Raven at the beginning of The company was established in February 1995 to extend the DirecTV service to Latin America and the Caribbean. The Latin American service began broadcasting the following year and, at the beginning of 2004, it covered 97% of its target market reaching approximately 1.5 million customers in 28 countries. Revenues for DLA decreased by 19% to US$439 million for the nine months ended September 30, This compared with US$539 million for the nine months ended September 30, According to the company the decline in revenues resulted from US$55 million of revenues generated from the 2002 World Cup, a smaller subscriber base in 2003 and the 2003 devaluation of several Latin American currencies. 11

Operating losses were US$74 million in the quarter compared with 3Q02 s losses of US$84 million. According to DLA, the slight improvement was down to cost cutting over the past year. This included programming cost reductions resulting from the rejection of certain contracts in connection with the Chapter 11 reorganisation, which were partially offset by reduced revenues associated with the smaller subscriber base.

24 SUMMARY Monthly ARPU for the first three-quarters of 2003 was US$32.20, a reduction of US$4.50 compared with the previous year s figure of US$ This fall was related primarily to the 2002 World Cup revenues.

In 2000 the company launched its DirecTV Interactive service which offered subscribers access to banking and customer service applications, as well as video games. It now includes additional services such as and four interactive channels. In September 2003, DirecTV launched the interactive games channel Playin TV. The service also offers enhanced television viewing in certain territories where it has broadcast rights for sporting events such as the 2003 NFL season. By early 2004 interactive services were available in Argentina, Brazil, Costa Rica, Mexico, Panama, Puerto Rico and Venezuela. In November 2003 the satellite operator launched its Interactive Subscriber Channel, which, simplified viewing and programme selection. Those subscribers with interactive decoders have programme choices categorised as well as greater ease in accessing PPV and premium services.

25 SUMMARY LATIN AMERICAN TV In October 2003 Moody s Investors Service lowered its rating for US$200 million of Senior Secured Notes issued by Sky Brasil. The downgrade reflected Moody s reduced expectations with regard to the company s ability to service its debt as a stand-alone entity. It also highlighted that Sky Brasil s programming costs as a percentage of subscriber revenues remained significantly higher than the international industry average. At June 2003 Sky Brasil had US$441 million in debt, with US$209 million related to the senior secured notes and US$232 million related to PanAmSat lease annuity financing for satellite transponders. EBITDA for the six-month period ending June 30, 2003 was US$6.5 million, compared to an EBITDA deficit of US$6.3 million for the same period in Sky Latin America profits/(losses) for 12 months ended June (A$ mil.) % change Sky Brasil (56) (120) 53 Innova (37) (92) 60 Other (41) (78) 47 Total (134) (290) 54 Source: News Corp. For the year ending June 2003 losses for each of the three operations decreased. Sky Brasil, which accumulated losses of more than A$120 million in 2002 more than halved this figure in The combined losses for the three sectors decreased by 54% to A$134 million. Prospects for a profit in the current financial year are good. For the first time since its creation in October 1996, Sky Brasil reported a net profit of US$8.9 million in 1Q03, followed by a profit of US$58.2 million in 2Q03. Revenue rose to US$52 million in 2Q03, 30% higher than in 1Q03 and 10% higher than 2Q02. According to Sky Brasil, the improved financial performance is not just the result of subscriber base growth, but also the appreciation of the local currency against the U.S. dollar, the renegotiation of programming contracts and a reduction of the company s connection equipment subsidy. For the nine months ended September 2003, Sky Mexico reported net revenues of Ps2,775 million, up 4.3% compared to the first nine months of The growth was mainly due to its higher subscriber base. EBITDA for the nine-month period improved 21.2% to Ps857.1 million. This was put down to a combination of higher revenues and reduced operating expenses. Sky s Mexican operation, Innova, is the country s pay TV leader. It reported its first quarter of profitability in 2Q01, following a 48% rise in revenues in local currency terms and 14
26 SUMMARY subscriber growth at 35% compared with 2Q00. Revenues increased 5.3% to Ps931.8 million in 3Q03 compared with the same period of 2002, mainly due to the growth of its subscriber base. EBITDA for 3Q03 increased 10.8% to Ps293.6 million compared with the same period of As a result, EBITDA margin increased 150 basis points to 31.5%. Since its launch in December 1996, Sky Mexico has manoeuvred itself into a dominant DTH position, mainly through exploiting the synergies involving its strategic investors. By September 2003, Sky Mexico had 826,100 subscribers up 13% on the same month in The 3Q 2003 figure does, however, include 46,850 non-residential subscribers, which were not counted in It appears unlikely to reach its target of 1 million Mexican subscribers by end-2003, although that level could be reached by mid DSL entertainment Despite plenty of competition from cable and satellite operators, they is still potential for DSL entertainment services, though it may be some time before these services launch. By 2010, 0.5% of the region s TV households are expected to subscribe to DSL entertainment services. These 539,000 homes will generate revenues of US$215 million.

However, our forecasts assume that several countries will begin DTT transmissions by the end of the decade. By 2010, 1% of the region s TV households, or 1.3 million homes, are forecast to receive DTT signals. Brazil will account for 44.5% of the 2010 total. DTT homes are classified as those receiving the signals but not subscribing to cable, satellite or DSL entertainment services. 15
