Ringier, Switzerland’s largest internationally active media group, increased its EBITDA by 55.2 percent in 2012, to reach CHF 99.5 million. The Group’s consolidated 2012 revenues amounted to CHF 1,087.6 million, 18 percent of which were generated by its digital businesses. Ringier’s traditional publishing business maintained its position as the Group’s main source of revenue. The positive contributions made by acquisitions, the pleasing performance of Ringier’s Swiss magazine business, systematic development of its Entertainment division, as well as the consistent and sustainable implementation of cost-cutting measures across all business areas and in all countries in which the Group does business all played their part in the good results Ringier achieved in 2012.
