Fundación Atresmedia 156 ATRESMEDIA | ANNUAL AND CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY REPORT 2017 | 4 | 1. LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN In 2017 Atresmedia navigated a highly complex environment. Once again, our ability to adapt to constantly shifting scenarios has been put to the test. Given the difficulties that we have faced, we come before you with a sense of pride in our achievement: a set of figures for the year that can only be described as excellent. The Group’s performance reflects the efforts of our strong team of professionals, the unflagging and valuable support of the Board and, of course, our shareholders’ confidence in the management team. For yet another year, Atresmedia has proved that it is a strong and successful company. The fact that we are Spain’s largest Communication Group is no mere accident. It is the outcome of the way we do business. For a number of years, we have pursued, vigorously and with conviction, a strategy predicated on quality content, professionalism, a diversity of viewpoints and support for the industry. Our focus on these vectors of action, which cut José Creuheras ATRESMEDIA | ANNUAL AND CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY REPORT 2017 1. LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN | 5 | across all our areas of activity, is the key to our success. What defines us and places us in a leading position in the eyes of the general public, which values and rewards our efforts to avoid the easy way out and, instead, achieve excellence. We have undeniably proved that our model brings together sustainable leadership with an attractive return on investment; our strong business performance is wedded to the recognition and confidence of our viewers, listeners and advertisers. The worth of our business philosophy is borne out by the facts and by our performance. The Group’s strong performance is a The figures achieved in 2017 reflect these values, which are common reflection of our to the entire Company, and are also the outcome of our willingness to superb team of understand and rise to challenges as they emerge in our surroundings. professionals, the We are not scared of change. Rather, change is what drives us unflagging and forward and enables us to become our best selves. And 2017 was valuable support of certainly a year of change. The internationalisation of our content, the Board and, of course, the confidence the founding of Atresmedia Studios, the acquisition of SmartClip and the enhancement of our diversification policy all clearly exemplify our placed in the refusal to conform or rest on our laurels, and our ability to adapt and management team by consistently improve. our shareholders 2017 also saw our Group become finally and firmly established as Spain’s leading news organisation. And this, again, is no mere coincidence or short-term trick. It is the outcome of a long-term commitment to a diversity of viewpoints, and quality news and reporting. Our coverage of the Catalan independence process via Antena 3 Noticias, laSexta Noticias and the Onda Cero news unit was the go-to option for millions of people, and strengthened our bond to the real concerns of the wider community. This success shows that our strategy was the right one, even though the fruits were not borne immediately. As a result, Atresmedia has moved to the forefront, and we can now say that we are the most influential Group. And not just through our news and current affairs programming. We also lead the pack with our entertainment and fiction content. Because influence also consists of people talking about your series or game shows in their day-to-day lives. To be influential and address the concerns closest to wider society is all part of what we want to be. This is an attribute that becomes especially significant in a changing and highly competitive environment. Our influence places us in a stronger position facing new entrants and sets us apart from more conventionally-minded operators; it will bring us quantifiable benefits in many respects. Our willingness to provide service and our commitment to the public make us part of the backbone of wider society. ATRESMEDIA | ANNUAL AND CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY REPORT 2017 | 6 | 1. LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN The television division has again proved its robustness through a Our strategy as a model that is recognised for its news programming, its entertainment Group is based on and its fiction, which is endorsed by audience ratings and best able content quality, to withstand a scenario of increasing fragmentation. Among other professionalism, a achievements, Antena 3 ended 2017 as the unrivalled leader in the diversity of viewpoints, morning and weekend timeslots, while laSexta again outstripped and support for the its main competitor for the fifth year running. Our special- industry. Our focus on interest channels, Neox, Nova, Mega and Atreseries, rounded out these vectors of action, Atresmedia Televisión’s successful offering. The television division which cut across all is capable of generating prestigious and widely recognised brands; it our areas of activity, is is a veritable factory of quality content that is distributed around the the key to our success, world and of which we are very proud. This high quality is enabling and defines us as a us to prove that our strategy as a content factory is effective. In this benchmark for wider sense, the last step in this direction has been Atresmedia Studios, a society. pioneer production venture for the creation, design and production of content to third parties, which already has a wide range of both Spanish and international customers. Atresmedia Radio is still going strong, based as it is on credibility, diversity of viewpoints, entertainment and closeness to people’s real concerns. The past few years have been complex for our radio division, but we are beginning to see positive results. We have the best offer on the market, even though our smaller number of broadcasting bases means that we are not competing on an equal footing. Onda Cero proved its immense strength: it was the only general-interest radio station to grow in the last two consecutive waves of the EGM audience survey, and ended 2017 with 3% growth, doubling the market average.
