Transformation Remains on Track • 32.1 Percent Of Media Release Medienmitteilung Communiqué de presse Transformation remains on track 32.1 percent of revenue now digital EBITDA of CHF 82.3 million in 2014 Zurich, April 15, 2015 Ringier generated overall revenue of CHF 988.5 million in 2014, of which 32.1 percent came from its digital businesses, up from 25.7 million a year earlier. 2014 EBITDA came in at CHF 82.3 million, which equates to an EBITDA margin of 8.3 percent. The Group’s further systematic pursuit of its diversification strategy, the profitable acquisitions made in recent years, its focus on digital growth markets in Eastern Europe and cost optimization in its traditional and still substantial publishing business all contributed to this satisfactory result. Since 2007, Ringier has invested some CHF 1.6 billion in transforming the company into a diversified media group. 60 percent of these funds were devoted to acquiring digital businesses, an investment that is now increasingly paying off. In 2014, 32.1 percent of the Group’s overall revenue of CHF 988.5 million was already generated by its digital operations, as was nearly 50 percent of Group EBITDA of CHF 82.3 million. CHF 611.1 million (62 percent) of overall revenue came from Ringier’s businesses in Switzerland and Germany, with CHF Eastern Europe accounting for 241.1. million (24 percent), while printing operations in Switzerland contributed CHF 110.1 million (11 percent) and Asia and the promising African market generated CHF 26.2 million (3 percent). The decline in EBITDA between 2013 and 2014 essentially reflects the one-off effects arising from real-estate sales in 2013 and extraordinary factors in 2014 associated with the company’s transformation of its business. This resulted in an EBITDA margin of 8.3 percent in 2014, compared to 12 percent in 2013. After adjusting for these one-off factors, the decline in EBITDA between 2013 and 2014 was only CHF -7.1 million, or 8.3 percent. This shortfall is almost entirely attributable to lower earnings from the Group’s printing plants and its newspaper and magazine operations both in and outside Switzerland. In the words of Ringier CEO Marc Walder, “The Ringier Group pursued its transformation strategy at a rapid pace in 2014 and will continue to do so. Today, Ringier is one of Europe’s most diversified media enterprises, both geographically and in terms of the activities in which it engages. With 32.1 percent of our revenue now being generated by our digital businesses, we are ahead of our medium- term objectives. We are achieving particularly substantial growth with our digital classified- advertising portals in all the national markets we cover, both in terms of revenue and profitability. The investments the Ringier family has made are testimony to their entrepreneurial farsightedness. Despite this diversification, publishing, both online and off, remains central to Ringier’s activities.” Ringier AG T +41 44 259 64 48 Corporate Communications F +41 44 259 86 35 Dufourstrasse 23 [email protected] 8008 Zurich www.ringier.com Switzerland Transformation remains on track | 32.1 percent of revenue now digital | EBITDA of CHF 82.3 million in 2014 Page 2 of 6 In its Publishing business, Ringier’s titles continued to operate from a position of strength in 2014, enjoying high levels of acceptance from readers, users and advertisers alike. Despite the challenges facing the Group’s core Publishing business, Ringier titles were not only able to uphold their leading market positions, they also successfully launched a range of innovative offerings. This is notably exemplified by the Blick am Abend digital platform, which, in its first year of operation, attracted more than one million unique client visits per month. With its new editor-in-chief, Blick has significantly enhanced its publishing relevance and impact. Its readership of 667,000 means that it remains the most widely read paid newspaper in Switzerland. SonntagsBlick, which is read by 760,000 people each week, also held its own as the country’s most popular Sunday title, while Blick.ch has maintained its position as one of the most prominent media portals in Switzerland, attracting more than four million unique client visits each month. Overall, Ringier’s magazine titles nearly matched the outstanding results they had achieved in 2013, with GlücksPost, Schweizer LandLiebe and SI Style and all its special supplements even improving on their 2013 performance. With 712,000 readers, Schweizer Illustrierte remains Switzerland’s most widely read family and celebrity magazine title. Schweizer LandLiebe again achieved particularly strong circulation performance in 2014, with more than half a million readers now enjoying each issue. With the exception of TV8, the television-schedule magazine, Ringier Romandie’s titles did not meet their business objectives. Ringier further strengthened its market position in French-speaking Switzerland in 2014 by acquiring the shares in the Le Temps newspaper title previously held by Tamedia. Plans are in place to open a shared newsroom for Le Temps, L’Hebdo and Bolero-Edelweiss in Lausanne in 2015. In Ringier’s printing-plant business, Ringier Print Adligenswil continued to perform well in 2014, achieving a modest increase in revenue, while Swissprinters in Zofingen was adversely affected by more intense price competition from abroad and the strength of the Swiss franc, with the result that revenue fell 10 percent. Although Ringier Germany achieved an increase in revenue, advertising sales at Cicero and Monopol have not yet reached their planned targets. Cicero did however succeed in expanding its sold circulation by 3.6 percent. The Energy brand became an increasingly significant element in Ringier’s Entertainment business during 2014. Energy today is far more than a radio broadcaster. It has become one of the most prominent media brands in Switzerland. Among the prime advertising target audience of listeners aged 15 to 49, Energy Zurich is the most popular private radio broadcaster in Switzerland, indisputably so and by a wider margin than ever. In German-speaking Switzerland, the three Energy radio stations in Basel, Bern and Zurich now reach 480,000 listeners every day. The Energy brand is also doing well online, with 323,000 unique clients generating some 1.9 million visits to the Energy.ch website each month.

The existing Energy Fashion Night, Energy Live Sessions and Energy Stars For Free events also continued to draw enthusiastic crowds. Ticketcorner continued to build on its leading position in the event-ticketing market, signing long- term contracts with major production companies such as Carré Events and Good News Productions, as well as new venues such as the Stade de Suisse. Ticketcorner currently holds contracts with 11 football clubs and 12 ice-hockey clubs, as well as with the national associations for these two sports. InfrontRingier Sports & Entertainment Switzerland AG also achieved further growth in 2014. After an interval of 42 years, the Swiss Ice Hockey Cup was successfully relaunched on October 1, 2014. Infront Ringier was reponsible both for staging the matches and for distributing the media, marketing and merchandising rights. 2015 will see Infront Ringier organize the Tour de Suisse cycling race for the first time, an event for which it has also been awarded sole marketing rights. The firm will also organise six B2RUN company runs in Switzerland in 2015 and has also been chosen as a new strategic partner for the ATP World Tour 500 Swiss Indoors Basel tennis championship. Sat.1 Switzerland (in which Ringier holds a 40-percent stake) performed well in 2014, with LandLiebeTV achieving the broadcaster’s highest average audiences for the entire year in Switzerland, while the new Energy NOW format was successfully launched on the ProSieben channel. In 2014, Ringier also achieved a major TV success in its marketing of TF1, the most widely watched private television channel in French-speaking Switzerland, generating its best results since it was first awarded the contract three years ago and securing a long-term extension of its contract with TF1. Ticket sales for the 2014 Moon & Stars concerts in Locarno fell short of expectations, as a consequence of bad weather and the fact that the football World Cup was also being contested at the same time. The Classical Company, a joint venture between Ringier and the German company DEAG, achieved a pleasing set of results with its small-scale but successful concerts, thus ideally complementing the other events in Ringier Entertainment’s portfolio. 2014 was a record year for Ringier Digital in every respect. By jointly acquiring a majority stake in the Scout 24 Switzerland Group, alongside the investment firm KKR as its new co-investor, Ringier substantially expanded its presence in online marketplaces. As one of the world’s leading investment firms, KKR has the requisite expertise to ensure that the ongoing development of Ringier Digital’s car, real-estate and other online advertising services is carried out to the highest professional standards. AutoScout24, ImmoScout24 and Anibis already hold leading positions in their respective segments of Switzerland’s online marketplace arena. Thanks to its stake in JobCloud AG, which operates a wide range of online employment portals on one common platform, Ringier Digital has now established a leadership position across the entire online classified advertising market.

    RISING MIDDLE CLASS – AFRICA OUTLOOK AND GROWTH POTENTIAL The Swiss perspective on the example of Nigeria Table of contents Foreword 1. Executive summary 2. The global Rising Middle Class (RMC) 3. The African RMC – definitions, drivers and trends 4. The Rising Middle Class in Nigeria 3.1 Nigeria at a glance 3.2 Industry insights and RMC opportunities 5. Case studies of Swiss companies in Nigeria 6. Key takeaways for SMEs Appendix 2 Foreword In early 2015, through a study drafted in cooperation with PwC, S-GE drew attention to the phenomenon of the Rising Middle Class, especially in Asia. Now, turning to examine Africa, how is the middle class developing in Africa and what opportunities does this create? Will Africa become a favored destination of growth opportunities for Swiss companies? And what are the obstacles to business success in Africa that need to be overcome? Even though the absolute numbers are much smaller compared with Asian markets, the Rising Middle Class is a reality in Africa, too. While the vast proportion of poor inhabitants remains the main challenge facing Africa, some 21%–36% (depending upon the definition applied) of the population of Africa belong to the new middle class. To understand better the phenomenon of the Rising Middle Class, it is suggested to focus on Nigeria: of the 54 states that make up the African continent, it represents the market with the largest economy and it with a strong average growth in the last years (around 8% p.a). With 174 million inhabitants, it is one of the most highly populated countries in the world having an enormous growth potential in the next years.

    RINGIER ANNUAL REPORT 2003 Let us go to our children and see how naïvely they draw, yet what great art they produce. Eisenstein tells an interesting story of a child illustrating the subject “lighting the stove”. The child drew “some firewood, a stove and a chimney. But in the middle of the room there was huge rectangle covered with zig-zags. What was it? Matches apparently. The child drew the matches on a scale appropriate to their crucial role in the action he was depicting.” Vsevolod Emilevic Meyerhold Contents 6Prologue 8 The artist 10 Results 14 Profit and loss account 16 Ringier Switzerland 17 Color table 23 Color table 30 Ringier Europe 38 Ringier Asia 41 Color table 44 Ringier Print 47 Color table 50 Human Resources 52 Participations 54 Organization 56 Epilogue 58 Publications and circulations 60 Locations 62 Impressum Prologue Is this simply a somewhat different-looking annual report? Or is it a genuine work of art? Arguably its designer, Christopher Williams, is one of the world’s better-known and estab- lished artists. There is of course no real proof that this is so, even though it is a view – a belief even – held by many. Give him twenty years and there is little doubt he will have been accorded his rightful place in art history. Then comparisons with other greats of the number of shows to his credit and the market prices his works fetch will leave no doubts whatsoever about his stature. What, you might ask, has this to do with Ringier? A great deal.
