corporation and trade tax loss carryforward of around EUR 45 million at
year-end 2016. In line with the forecast, the provisional, as yet
unaudited, 2016 annual financial statements, which include the
discontinued broadcast business respectively, report revenues of around EUR
60 million due to group restructuring and earnings before tax (EBT) of EUR
-6.5 million. As part of the Group's restructuring process, the company
sold _wige BROADCAST gmbh, a loss-making business with TV production for
domestic and international broadcasters, associations and organisers, as
well as _wige SOLUTIONS gmbh, a low-margin and capital intensive media
technology business in their entirety. In the future, _wige MEDIA AG
intends to grow in the scalable digital business, in the high-margin
international project business, as well as in business with live events.
