Architectural Lighting: dynamic Neon lighting begins

Time passes through various shades of light: For millions of years our bodies have been used to this biological clock.

Steady light is a result of modern technology to which man had to adapt until technology introduced new solutions of architectural lighting.

Elettronica per Luce has created a DMX system, which with a digital/analogue controller artificially reproduces the effect of natural changing light.

This six-channel system is easy to use and utilizes the basic colours: red, green, blue and one or two whites with high colour rendering. These tubes can be lit simultaneously according to scheduled programs in order to obtain standard settings i.e. Daylight 6500°K etc. - or different settings can be obtained.

It is not only possible to choose the most pleasant type of light, but it will also be possible to artificially reproduce the effect of natural changing light. In the morning it would be possible to start with a warm light going towards a full white light and ending at night with a comfortable light.

The applications of this DMX system are astonishing – the channels can control different modes aside from the lighting. A channel for example can be used for the gradual opening of the blinds at a particular time of the day. More sophisticated lightingcould be at night, i.e. around the house by switching on/off the light in the rooms by means ofsensors. This system could be easily used in ambient lighting situations where accent is needed such as a fashion shop to accentuate the colours of fabric, shoes or jewellery.Do you think it is complicated? Don’t worry; this technology is as simple as flicking switch!

Florence for young travellers

Florence has been home to some of the world renowned artists as Dante, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Brunelleschi, Botticelli, Vasari.

Among academies, libraries and museums, religious monuments, churches, civil architecture and buildings you will experience you really are in a treasure hunting. For this reason not only tourists, or backpackers but prevalently international students or even international volunteers are choosing this city for their academic courses, stages and studies.

Well, to start, we mention an international place where students, travellers, journalists and actors usually meet: at Acqua al 2 you can get cannelloni, beef, selection of salads, pasta, cheese and excellent wines at average prices of €30. Acqual al 2 is a modern bistro that we suggest in Via Vigna Vecchia ,40; ph: +39 055 284 170; open daily from 7.30 pm-1am).

If you are visiting Florence and you are on a budget and looking for cheap accommodation consider youth hostels, backpackers hostels or international students houses ( hostels as well) where a bed night average price start from 18 euros. The atmosphere is quite basic but somehow fascinating. Florence does not have a long tradition in modern hippie youth hostels as you might find in other top cities. Florence rather can offer old style hostels, kind of student residence, or pilgrim residence as it was in Medieval times. Monasteries are converted in new pilgrims hostels ( backpackers, students, international volunteers) sometimes still run by nuns or monks. You can find some more details in site for young travellers or backpackers as Flashboking.com.

For budget tips where to go shopping here we go!

It is possible to make excellent purchases in the narrow lanes and streets of Florence in particular around Santa Croce and Oltrarno you can easily find little authentic workshops of paper, leather, perfumes...

Some names: Il Papiro offers good quality hand-made paper in Piazza del Duomo, 24r (ph: +39 055 281 628). Officina Profumo Farmaceutica Shop an old fashioned chemist offers lotions, potions, and herbal remedies abound in elegant packaging in Via Scala, 16 (ph: +39 055 16276 )

Go to Piazza dei Ciompi if you are looking for second-hand and flea markets (last Sun. of the month), or to S. Lorenzo Market (northwest of the Duomo), or the colourful Central Market for food (Square of Mercato Centrale). Here you ‘ll find olives, hams, cheeses and fresh vegetables. Try Via Maggio and Borgo Ognissanti for fine Florentine antique shops.

Of course for anything you need, ticket booking, accommodations booking, hotel reservations, budget trattorie, or simply to locate all this on a map you need a pc and an internet point ( as not all youth hostel will have pc free fro every guest!!). There are a few in Florence. Internet point (Borgo degli Albizi 66; ph:+39 055 24 0780; €3/hour); Internet Train: (€4/hour or €3/hour for students) with 12 point sin the city: Via dell’Oriuolo, 40, ph: +39 055 2345 322; Via del Parione 11b, ph:+39 055 264 5563; Borgo S. Jacopo, ph: +39 055 265 7935).

Eat and drink in Rome

In Rome you do not have to miss the famous ‘pizza al taglio’: basically in Rome you can live with it! And it will help you a lot to save monay expecially if you are a traveller on a budget.

Attention: the most fancy places are usually tourist traps. We suggest to get lost in the narrow streets away form the big crowded ones. You should not pay more then 2 euros for a delicious crusty walking pizza…

If saving is your travelling philosophy, you can also drink your water from the public fountains that are spread all over.

And after pizza?? You need to end with a fantastic ice cream!

For an excellent one try Giolitti’s (Via Uffici del Vicario, 40, ph: 06 6991243; www.giolitti.it) that since 1900 has been serving savoury ice creams behind all expectations. It’s not in every guide... only Romans know!! Basically till now you should have spent not more then 5 euros!!! Quite good news for backpackers, or also families with children travelling on a budget!! Right??

But the best tips are the following: dinner out in Rome!!

The San Lorenzo and Trastevere neighbourhoods are both renowned for reasonably priced Roman-Style cooking. If you have a lodging there it will also be easy to get around: otherwise there are plenty of guest houses or family B&& (bed and breakfast, in Italy are also called pensioni or family guest house) available in many websites, among the others you can try Flashbooking.com which allows to book directly online providing you with the BB maps and directions and contacts as well. Very useful! We suggest you chose your BandB according to the location and if you get your accommodation in Trastevere be sure you will be in the most traditional, buzzing and authentic area of Rome!

There are very few things Romans will line up for. One of these is “da Baffetto” near Piazza Navona, more exactly in Via del Governo Vecchio,14;ph. 066861617). After 9 pm prepare to wait quite a lot because they do not take reservations but pizza is fabulous!!

For tradition Roman dishes there is also “Trattoria da Francesco” in Piazza del Fico, 29 (ph: 06 6864009) hidden in a cosy square that serves as a private garden. If this is not enough and you are planning to stay in Rome for few nights, consider a visit to Alfredo alla Scrofa and try the specialty: ‘Fettuccine’ (Via della Scrofa, 104)

For a little more expensive but trendy place (which is pizzeria, restaurant, wine-bar, ‘cheeserie’ all together is ‘Gusto in Piazza Augusto Imperatore, 9; ph: 06 32262 73; open every day from 10 in the morning until 2 in the night).

Made in Italy: excellence in the production of automatic vending machine

No country can compete with the "culture" of Italian coffee. Indeed, even in the field of automatic vending machines and hot drinks espresso, Italian companies are placing as a leader in quality of products offered to the international market and unmistakable taste of Italian Espresso they distributed.

Indeed, the espresso has made us famous in every corner of the planet, especially where the coffee is made and served very long (just as in America). This is because the beverage expressed itself retains all the taste and the aromas of roasted coffee beans. In these terms, even in the offices, institutions, structures and organizations around the world is growing, year after year, the demand for vending machines for hot drinks of high quality that can serve an authentic and original product which transmits the scent and the warmth that characterizes our kitchen.

But what is meant by automatic vending machine?

The automatic machine is a machine that delivers, with fee, products or services required from the final customer. Unlike a real store, They are often quite, an automatic coffee does not require staff dedicated to the marketing of products that can be used even in the absence of personnel, or when the business is closed. Moreover, this type of product, has had several applications in the social, just think of: schools, industries, hospitals, highway stops, etc..

A little curiosity about it

It is assumed that the first automatic vending machine has been designed and built by Hero Tzebus in Alexandria in Egypt as far back as 219 BC who invented an autonomous system for the distribution of water during ceremonies held in temples. The machine, presented inside a simple but brilliant mechanism at the same time, in fact, the distribution was driven through coins that by their weight pressed on a lever that allowed the opening of a valve from which streamed some quantities of water.

The situation today and the market

Today, as in every domain, the technology has allowed a sector that enables vending machines now to sell and market any type of snacks, food and beverages. Also in recent times have spread rapidly intelligent distributors of newspapers and cigarettes , based on rules and timetables established that distribute their products only to certain groups of users, the case in point is that of cigarette distributors that before 9 PM requiring the inclusion of the tax code to get access to products.

With the advent of globalization, Italian companies specialized in the manufacture of vending machines are beginning to invest in Internet to promote their activities and make known their products all over the world.

In these words, the Web looks like the most immediate and comprehensive solution for attacking new countries and markets, promoting the Made in Italy in the World. Again and again.

Go-Kart, an Italian passion

Ferrari and Ducati recent successes on the world circuit, make the eyes of the whole planet, the Italian production in the world of top-level engines. Even in the construction and design of go-kart.

With the recent success of Ducati Corse in the World Motorcycle category "Moto GP", engines made in Italy have shown, together with the "custom" Ferrari, to be designed to be regarded as leaders around the globe.

Indeed, a bit like in all other areas, the Italian manufacturing presents as well as a high quality product also the passion and determination that distinguishes us in achieving excellence and objectives.

In this regard, even in Go-Kart production Italian companies are moving and promoting all over the world, thanks to a great go-kart production using the best engines, components and accessories.

But perhaps this fascinating world of competition with mini-cars, called Kart or Go-Kart, is not well known and less popular because of the two sports quoted above: motorcycle and Formula One.

Indeed, karting is the simplest form of motorsports run with small cars with essential shape: tubular steel frame without suspension, wheels and engine. The sport, just for fun transmitting in goal, was born as a hobby but now is a step "almost mandatory" for those who wish to embark on a career as a professional pilot. Not surprisingly, the latest F1 exited from its "breeding garden" of the go-kart (Schumacher, Senna, Prost, Alonso, just to name a few).

The kart was born in America, as often happens, for economic motivations in 1956 where cars race became increasingly expensive and the number of participants (and especially the audience) was so narrow to seek alternatives. In these terms, the Karting was the dowry of remedy, at least in some respects, this situation by proposing solutions extremely funny but also economic and accessible to all fans of engines.

In Italy the phenomenon develops and explodes in the early '70s where simple manual constructions moved towards specialization of some companies in the production and sales of Go-Kart competition. The first racetracks were born and passion spreads quickly from young to older who do not disdain the emotions that only a sports car like the Go-Kart can feel.

Recently Kart manufacturers have always researched and developed new solutions, improving each component of competition mini-cars with high technology spare parts able to greatly improve the performance and consistency of the same in sports and competition areas.

Finally we have only to indulge in this passion with friends and colleagues in breathtaking races, perhaps without exaggerating for the weak of heart.

RTI-MEDUSA-TAODUE: A NEW MAJOR FOR ITALIAN CONTENT IS BORN

An agreement was signed today to create a joint-venture that brings together
Medusa Film (a subsidiary of Rti, a leader in Italian film production) and Taodue
(controlled by Pietro Valsecchi and Camilla Nesbitt) leader in the production of quality
TV drama.
The aim of the operation is to create a new production company able to exploit
opportunities for growth in the content market for television and the cinema, both in
Italy and abroad.
The characteristics of the agreement
The operation will involve the creation of a new company (with net assets of around
€370 million) to which Rti will contribute 100% of Medusa Film and Valsecchi and
Nesbitt 100% of Taodue.
The shareholders of the production company will receive in exchange a 25% stake in
the new company (the remaining 75% of which will be controlled by Rti), as well as
around €107 million.
The governance of the new company will be guaranteed by a board of directors
comprising members nominated in proportion to the shareholders’ interest.

The value of the operation for Mediaset

The creation of this new joint-venture completes the company’s development project
in the content area, begun by Mediaset when it joined the consortium that bought
Endemol and the subsequent acquisition of the Medusa Group.

Rti’s traditional leadership in TV entertainment production (broadcast on Mediaset
channels and also distributed on the new platforms) was consequently reinforced,
firstly by an international opening thanks to Endemol (in May 2007) and then, in July,
with Medusa’s strong position in film rights which are an indispensable resource for
all media that distribute video content on whatever platform.

Today, thanks to the inclusion of TaoDue, the Mediaset Group also becomes leader
in the area of high-quality TV drama, which in continuous expansion, at both national
and international level.

Today’s definition of the agreement:
• represents an important base from which to pursue the development and
integration of film and TV drama production activities in Italy and around the
world;
• enriches the library with products with which it is possible to manage the entire
rights cycle, also by identifying new opportunities and spaces for their
exploitation;
• confirms the company’s intention to open up to the market and to develop also
in the new media area;
• and finally, and not least important, it guarantees a direct involvement and
growing commitment to the production of films and TV drama with new
investments that will valorise the talents of Italian professionals and will translate into development for the entire sector and support for the cultural
value of national products.

Above all, the operation creates new value, producing the necessary critical mass in
quality content which forms the basis for the launch of a new major focused on the
expansion and development of Italian products, also in foreign markets.

Made in Italy swimsuit industry confirms its own prestige all around the world

A bikini, bathing suit, swimwear or swimming costume is an item of clothing designed to be worn for swimming and fashion sea. The manufacturing and marketing of women’s swimwear of high quality and elegance are branded "Made in Italy".

Some information

In English and New Zealand and some zones of Australian English, bikini are usually called togs.

Some history: In all probability, since 1400 BC Roman and Greek athletes were used to dress costumes as much similar as the modern bikinis (This is well shown on frescos and findings of that historic period).

This term is less common in other parts of the Commonwealth where it can also refer to clothes in general.

However, proper bathing suits (swimsuits) finalized to recreation and water sport activities, date back to the end of XIX century. Of course, speaking about women swimwear, they were one-piece swimsuits aimed to hide any sinuous, female shape.

Swimsuits can be skin-tight or loosely fitting and range from garments designed to preserve as much modesty as possible to garments designed to reveal as much of the body as possible without actual nudity.

On the contrary, modern bikini swimsuits, were created and introduced in the market by the Parisian engineer Lous Reard ( the word bikini derives from an atoll of the Marshall Islands).

They are often lined with a fabric that prevents them from becoming transparent when wet.

Naturally this innovation on women’s swimwear outfit -with naked gluteus and belly-, provoked clamour and diffidence in United States, where only in the 50’s was definitely accepted and introduced in the market.

Italian manufacturing of women’s swimwear

A bikini or two-piece is a type of women's swimsuit, characterized by two separate parts one covering the breasts, the other the groin, leaving an uncovered area between the two garments.

Nowadays, after years of experience and style, the Italian production of bathing suits covers a big part of the business representing research, offer and purchasing volumes of swimwear.

It is often worn in hot weather and while swimming. The shapes of both parts of a bikini closely resemble women's underwear, and the lower part of a bikini can therefore range from the more revealing thong or g-string to briefs and the more modest square-cut shorts.

This is probably due to the great tradition, as well as in the sector of summer swimsuit fashion, also in the manufacturing development of the fashion clothing industry able to offer a trend and define fashion on a planetary level.

For a total globalization of swimsuit products, it is fundamental that those Italian Companies dedicated to the creation and development of summer swimwear, adopt advanced web technologies that will allow worldwide visibility and whole satisfaction of the sector demand.

For this purpose, Toscana Chiarugi offers experience and professionalism in the production and online sale of swimwear thanks to promotional investments and realization of a new online catalogue illustrating the whole new summer collection.

Chiarugi is a reference point on the web for swimwear and lingerie sale, being its users not only Italian but women in general, wishing to distinguish themselves by femininity and prestige.

Another score gained by the ‘made in Italy’ clothes manufacturing compared with the European and International Competition!

This article was written by Michele De Capitani with support from women's swimsuit. For any information on Chiarugi, visit Bikini bathing suit or surfing on-line beach wear clothing.

MEDIASET: Publimedia Gestión expects to break €30 million mark

Madrid, November 22 2007

Today Telecinco our controlled company has disclosed the following press
release

Publimedia Gestión expects to break €30 million mark
PUBLIESPAÑA'S GROSS ADVERTISING REVENUES
WILL BREAK €1 BILLION MARK IN 2007
• Telecinco, through Publiespaña and Publimedia, expects a gross advertising
revenue increase of around 6% on the same period in 2006 in the months of
October and November
• Publiespaña opens new business and growth line for Telecinco in
the area of internet with the creation of a company called
Advanced Media in order to maximise advertising revenues from
www.telecinco.es, www.informativos.telecinco.es and
www.bolsacinco.com, as well as platforms for mobile telephony
• This commercial structure is part of Publimedia Gestión, the
advertising space manager for Telecinco's DTT channels, cable
television and written press, among others
• Publiespaña will maintain its market share at more than 2007's
level of 30% despite increased competition
Telecinco, through its concessionary Publiespaña, will mark a new
milestone in the history of Spanish television at the end of the year. The
strength and homogeneity of the channel's programming in all time slots,
leadership in audience numbers and the efficient management of
advertising space will allow Telecinco's gross television advertising
revenues to break the €1 billion mark in the 2007 fiscal year, a
symbolic figure that has never before been reached by any operator in
Spain.

Looking to 2008 and with the aim of opening new channels of growth to
Telecinco, Publiespaña has created a new business line oriented towards
internet and mobile telephony platforms through Advanced Media, a
company owned by Publiespaña and part of Publimedia Gestión. This line
will allow the channel to strengthen advertising revenue in all Telecinco
projects on the internet.
Telecinco increases total advertising revenues by around 6% in
October and November
This impressive figure, which the company expects to exceed when it closes 2007, is
backed up not only by the good results from the first nine months of the year, but
also by the good results produced in the months of October and November, when
Telecinco, through Publiespaña and Publimedia, registered an increase of around
6% in gross advertising revenues when compared to the same period in 2006.
This information – which was announced today by Giuseppe Tringali,
CEO of Telecinco, during the annual convention which the company is
holding in Valencia – once again places Publiespaña as the leading
company in the advertising sector in terms of turnover, profitability,
power ratio, price and market share. The indisputable leading position in
market share is of special relevance in 2007 due to the greater competition
from national generalist public television stations and to new technologies
and ways of accessing television content, despite all of which the company
will maintain a market share of more than 30%.
Publiespaña opens new growth line with the creation of a commercial structure for
increased advertising revenue on the internet and in mobile telephony
Technological advances in mobile telephony and the increasing importance
of advertising investment on the internet have led Publiespaña to begin a
new business line in these areas that will allow Telecinco the possibility of
continuing to increase its turnover.
To do this Publiespaña has opened a new business and growth line for
Telecinco in the area of internet with the creation of a commercial structure
called Advanced Media through which the management of the channel's
website (www.telecinco.es) will be strengthened, as well as the financial
portal, www.bolsacinco.com and Telecinco's news website,
www.informativos.telecinco.es. The Publimedia subsidiary will market the
audiovisual content offers that Orange users receive through 3G mobile
telephones.
In these platforms, Advanced Media will market traditional media at the
same time as it develops tailor-made formats for advertisers through a
creative service which is personalised for each client, adapted to the
singularity and language of both types of media.

This new business line will strengthen the multi-media and multi-platform
character of Publimedia Gestión, a company which expects to close the
year with gross advertising revenues of more than €30 million.
Publimedia Gestión markets audiovisual content offers on platforms that range
from cable television (ONO), digital terrestrial television (Telecinco Sport and
Telecinco Estrellas), analogue television (marketed in the Spanish market from
Mediaset television stations in Italy, Germany and United Kingdom), written
press (Bulevar 21, Mi Cartera de Inversión and the titles owned by the publishing
house Mondadori) and above-the-line media (Canal Metro Madrid and Barcelona
and seat backs on football pitches) to the creation and sale of television formats
“Más que coches”, “nosolomusica” and “El mundo mágico de Brunelesky”.
Iniciativas Especiales (Special Initiatives) accounts for more than 15% of the total
turnover
On the other hand, Publiespaña has met its aim to have the Iniciativas Especiales
area account for more than 15% of total turnover, a figure which stands testament to
clients' growing interest in the new advertising formulas which allow Publiespaña
to stay at the forefront of creation and development, made possible by the
maintenance of their pricing policy as a way of weighing the value of the product
in the current audiovisual environment.

Press release by Consortium for Balsamic Vinegar of Modena

2007 is showing positive results again for the industry of Balsamic Vinegar of Modena: despite the consumption growth trend has been leveling compared to the average growth of the previous 5 years (which showed double-digit figures), the first industry forecasts for 2007 show an increase in volume of about 5% vs the previous year, with an expectation for a total output of more than 80 million liters.

As far as concerns costs and prices, the industry of Balsamic Vinegar of Modena is strongly influenced by the wine and grape markets, particularly for grape must and this aspect will strongly affect the 2008 quotations.
In fact, data released by the agricultural organizations after the 2007 harvest show that the results of the grape collection were the worst in the last 50 years, with a huge decrease in quantity and tensions on demands, which caused a price increase for these raw materials of up to 35% more compared to 2006.
Furthermore, strong increases are also expected in packaging materials – especially for glass bottles -, transportation and services: forecasts are that the combined effect of all the said increases will lead to increases in price lists of about 10%-15%.

Drawing from "life’s experiences and the work of other writers" has helped Keldamuzik shape tracks like Mr. Right, Give You a Key, or the title track, and "girl power" anthem, Diva. The Diva album is set to explode with other hot joints like Bay Swag featuring Dem Hoodstarz and Excuse Me featuring Numskull of the Luniz

While know doubt Keldamuzik is a superb micsmith it’s her writing that she’s been honing since her childhood days of writing fairytale stories, that’s the real genesis here. As the Oakland Ca. based Keldamuzik says about Diva "its music for all ages".

In 2005 Keldamuzik founded Golddigga Entertainment to release not just her own album but operates as a vehicle to release other artist already signed to the company.
It also acts as the production company for her hugely popular Diva T.V. hip hop reality show which gives the entrepreneurial spirited actress, model and hip hop artist yet another opportunity to get closer to her ever growing fan base, her fans get closer to her and gives more exposure to her debut album Diva.

million in the first nine months of 2006, an increase of 5.4%.
• EBIT rose to €787.8 million, an increase of €47.6 million on the figure for the same
period of the previous year (€740.2 million).
• operating profitability, operating profit as a proportion of consolidated net
revenues, went up to 28.0%, from the 27.7% recorded in the first nine months of
2006.

• profit before taxation and that attributable to third-party shareholders rose to
€756.5 million, compared with €727.1 million at 30 September 2006.
• net profit attributable to the Group, after estimated taxation, rose to €372.3
million, from the €369.1 million of the first nine months of the previous year.
• the Group’s net financial position went from -€568.3 million at 31 December 2006
to -€1,167.1 million at 30 September 2007. The deficit is mainly due to the
expenditure in the third quarter (for a total of €598 million) for the acquisition of the
Medusa Group and the capitalisation of the vehicle established for the acquisition
of Endemol. as well as the distribution of dividends by the parent company and the
subsidiary Telecino (for a total of €644.7 million).
• In the first nine months of the year, the group’s net cash generation amounted to
€681.3 million, up from the €356.4 million for the same period of last year: in fact,
2006 recorded expenditure of €290 million for the acquisition of a dedicated
network for mobile TV services (DVBH) and the acquisition of options on encrypted
football rights for the 2009/2010 season of a number of important Serie A clubs.
A BREAKDOWN OF RESULTS BY GEOGRAPHIC AREA
Italy
• In the first nine months of 2007 consolidated net revenues recorded an increase
of 3.7%, reaching €2,045.9 million compared with €1,972.4 million in the same
period of the previous year. The increase is largely the result of higher revenues
from the pay-per-view activities of Mediaset Premium, network operator activities
and the consolidation of the revenues of the Medusa Group.
Gross television advertising revenues came to €2,002.5 million, a fall of 3.1%
on the same period of 2006. During the first nine months, this result was affected
by a reduction in advertising investments by a number of key clients who had
already made marked reductions in their budgets during the closing months of
2006.
If the examination is extended to the first 10 months of the year, and consequently
including the brilliant start to the new autumn TV season, advertising sales show a
marked recovery that brings the cumulative figure essentially in line with that of the
first 10 months of 2006 (-0.4%).
Mediaset Premium showed a marked improvement in revenues with the first nine
months pushing the total up to €142.8 million, well over twice the figure of €61.0
million for the first nine months of 2006. The figure includes the figure of €48.7
million from the sale of encrypted football rights for use on other platforms.
The first nine months of 2007 also recorded sales of more than 1.8 million new rechargeable
cards and more than 4.4 million re-charges.
• EBIT rose to €426.3 million, compared with €423.3 million to 30 September 2006.

• total television costs saw a significant fall (-1.1% compared with the first nine
months of the previous year and on a like-for-like basis) and in the face of a 2007
target that was in line with the costs of 2006.
• pre-tax profit came to €385,6 million, compared with €402.8 million in the first
nine months of 2006.
• net profit amounted to €239,7 million, compared with €253.9 million in the first
nine months of 2006.
• The impact on the group’s consolidated results of the recently acquired activities
(Medusa and Endemol) already show a positive contribution, net of acquisition
costs).
TV ratings: were positive in the first nine months of 2007 with Mediaset channels
confirming their national leadership in all time bands among viewers in the 15 to 64
year-old age range (the commercial target): in fact, Mediaset recorded 42.8% in
primetime and 43.1% in the 24 hours.
Canale 5 is Italy’s most popular channel among the commercial target, with a 21.2%
share in primetime and 20.6% in the 24 hours.
Spain
• In the first nine months of 2007 consolidated net revenues generated by the
Telecinco Group rose to €771.0 million, compared with €700.9 in the same period
of the previous year.
• Telecinco’s operating profit rose to €361.5 million, on the €317.3 million of the
first nine months of 2006.
• operating profitability (operating profit as a proportion of consolidated net
revenues) rose to 46.9% (45.3% in the first nine months of 2006).
• pre-tax profit came to €371.0 million, compared with €324.6 million in the first
nine months of 2006.
• net profit amounted to €262.8 million, an increase on the €229.3 million in the
same period of 2006.
• Telecinco’s ratings were also up, consolidating its position as Spain’s absolute
leader with a primetime share of 20.5% and 20.3% in the 24 hours.

FORECAST FOR THE YEAR
In the current year, on a like-for-like basis and excluding the contribution generated by
changes in leaving entitlements, the company expects to confirm an operating profit
that is higher than that of the previous year, the extent of the improvement will depend
on TV advertising sales in Italy and Spain in the last two months of the year.
The effect of the consolidation of the companies of the Medusa Group and the
inclusion, on a net equity basis, of the 33.3% held, through Mediacinco, in the
consortium that controls Endemol are not expected to have a significant impact on the
consolidated result of the current year. Also taking account of the positive operating
results and the financial structure of the operations.
Italy
Ratings. At the end of the first ten months of 2007, Mediaset channels confirmed their
leadership in the commercial target (15-64 year-olds) in all time bands, with average
ratings of 42.9% in primetime and 43.1% in the 24 hours. Canale 5 consolidated its
position as Italy’s most popular channel and Italia 1 as the third.
Mediaset Premium. Sales were also excellent in the month of October: in fact, to date,
around 2.0 million pre-paid cards have been sold and 4.9 million re-charges.
Spain
Ratings. Also in October, Telecinco confirmed its leadership in terms of share, further
extending its advantage over its main competitors.
The executive responsible for the preparation of the Mediaset S.p.A. accounts, Andrea
Goretti, declares that, as per para. 2 art. 154-bis, of the Single Finance Bill, that the
accounting information contained in this press release corresponds to that contained in the
company’s books.

MEDIASET: Financial results for the nine-month period ended September 2007 of Telecinco

Today Telecinco our controlled company has disclosed the following press release

Madrid, 31 October 2007

Financial results for the nine-month period ended September 2007

TELECINCO'S NET PROFIT UP 14.6%, UNDERPINNED BY AUDIENCE SHARE LEADERSHIP, COMMERCIAL STRATEGY AND COST MANAGEMENT

• Net profit is €262.82 million
• Telecinco is the leading television channel in 2007 in terms of audience share and the only one showing a share of over 20% in terms of total day share (20.4%) prime-time share (20.7%) and commercial target share (22.7%)
• Grupo Publiespaña had record gross advertising revenues of €750.54 million, an increase of 9.6% compared to the same period in 2006. Net advertising revenues up 9.5% to €717.92 million
• Net revenues up 10% to €770.95 million
• At €361.55 million, EBIT is up 13.9% on the same period in 2006


A consistent and stable programming with a strict control of costs, an audience share of 20.4% for the year to date and a 9.5% growth in net advertising revenues are the factors underpinning the 14.6% growth in Telecinco's net profit for the nine-month period ended in September. Despite more intense competition, Telecinco has managed not only to improve its financial results, but also to achieve a record outperformance compared with its traditional competitors, increasingly widening the gap with the second and third-leading operators.

With only one quarter left to end the fiscal year, Telecinco saw a new record profit for the January-September period, re-stating its position as one of the most profitable television networks in Europe and Spain's number one operator in terms of audience share, advertising sales, operating margins, cash generation and stockmarket value. Outperformance in these metrics has led Telecinco to obtain its all-time best results in revenues and operating margins (adjusted EBITDA and EBIT), as well as net profit.


Telecinco expands revenues, margins and profit
Telecinco has achieved new records in the first nine months of 2007 with net advertising revenues of €717.92 million, up 9.5% on €655.69 million for the same period in 2006.


The channel has again grown its EBIT and EBITDA operating margins on the back of the high figures reported in 2006 and despite new competition. The gross operating margin (adjusted EBITDA) reached €366.16 million, up by 13.7% on the first nine months of 2006. The company's EBIT was €361.55 million, up 13.9% on the same period in 2006 (€317.31 million).


Pre-tax profit leapt from €324.62 million in the first nine months of 2006 to €370.97 million, an increase of 14.3%.


Net profit totalled €262.82 million, representing an increase of 14.6% on the same period in 2006 (€229.30 million).


Grupo Publiespaña leads the market with a new record in gross advertising revenues
Between January and September 2007, Grupo Publiespaña has confirmed its leadership position in terms of turnover in Spain's television market with gross advertising revenues of €750.54 million, representing an increase of 9.6% on the same period in 2006 (€685.08 million). Telecinco's advertising operator has set new records and continues to lead the television advertising market in Spain.


Profitability-driven cost management
For the year to September 2007, total operating costs grew by 6.7% compared to the same period in 2006, to €409.40 million. This growth is in line with the channel's targets for its television operations and includes costs associated with the consolidation of Jumpy and the incorporation of Mediacinco Cartera S.L.


Telecinco heads the year-to-date audience share ranking with 20.4%, almost 3 percentage points more than its competitors
The broadcast of new programmes that attracted the audience, together with well-established serials and shows in which the company introduced innovations, have placed Telecinco's programming as the most robust and consistent in Spain's broadcast industry. Telecinco's strong performance in all time slots, particularly in the prime-time slot, has enabled the channel to remain as the only television with an audience share of over 20% - 20.4%, almost 3 percentage points more than Antena 3 (17.5%) and 3.2 percentage points more than TVE 1 (17.2%).


This figure places Telecinco as the best performer compared to the same period in 2006, showing a year-on-year decrease of only 0.9 points, compared with Antena 3’s steep decline of 2.1 points and TVE 1's decline of 1 point.


For the year to date, Telecinco has increased its daily average to 20.7% in the prime time slot, widening the gap with Antena 3 (17%) to 3.7 points and with TVE 1 (16.8%) to 3.9 points. Similarly, Telecinco’s prime time appears to be the least affected by increasing competition with a decline of only 0.8 points compared with the January-September period in 2006. TVE 1 dropped 1.4 points and Antena 3 showed again the greatest year-on-year decline, with its prime time down by a remarkable 2.4 points.


January - 30 October 2007
Telecinco Antena 3 TVE 1
Total day 20.4% 17.5% 17.2%
Prime time 20.7% 17.0% 16.8%


As for the commercial target, Telecinco maintains its traditional leadership both in terms of total day share with 22.7% - 5.2 points more than Antena 3 (17.5%) and 9.3 points more than TVE 1 (13.4%) - and prime-time share with 23.3%, widening the gap with Antena 3 (16.8%) to 6.5 points and with TVE 1 (13.4%) to almost 10 points:
Telecinco Antena 3 TVE 1
Commercial target - Total day 2007 22.7% 17.5% 13.4%
Commercial target - Prime time 2007 23.3% 16.8% 13.4%


Comments by Paolo Vasile and Giuseppe Tringali, chief executives of Telecinco
In the opinion of Paolo Vasile, “figures for the first nine months of 2007 are extremely rewarding and encourage us to further our content and business strategy. In spite of the dramatic changes in the industry, Telecinco has been able to tighten the loyalty bonds with its audience to create a notable distance with its rivals. We are very grateful to our viewers, who day after day demonstrate that they prefer Telecinco and its programmes, be they classical, new, entertainment or news. It is a reward for the daily efforts of a team that is truly committed to accompany viewers".

"We are very pleased with our strong results in the third quarter, which we hope will have helped us to increase our market share. Our results are the direct consequence of the entire company's commitment, of our work philosophy and our humble desire to improve day by day. For us, it is very clear that content and advertising leadership can only be achieved by constantly winning the confidence of the audience and the companies that select us as their channel of choice with their investments. This confidence is the driving force behind our ongoing efforts to continue offering best-in-class service to the market", said Giuseppe Tringali.
