The US investment company CME has posted net revenues of $216,284,000 (€158,258,515) for Q2, or 38% more than in the corresponding period in 2006. Its operating income of $66,659,000 (+51%) and net income of $34,590,000 (+306%) were also significantly higher. Czech TV Nova was again the star performer, posting net revenues of $80,544,000 and EBITDA of $47,595,000 in Q2 2007. In the H1 figures, Ukraine’s Studio 1+1 raised a few eyebrows by securing lower net revenues this year ($40,776,000) than in 2006 ($46,540.000). CME CEO Michael Garin expressed disappointment with Studio 1+1’s performance while at the same time adding that, “we remain completely committed to Ukraine.” He also said that CME is “convinced that in the next few years Ukraine will become the largest market in which we operate.”
