Sky Italia revenues up 2% in Q1, to launch Sky Q box by Xmas
Italian pay-TV provider Sky Italia reported revenues of 605 million in its fiscal first quarter to 30 September, up 2 percent from a year earlier on a constant currency basis, with EBITDA up 8 percent to GBP 107 million, the highest level in five years. The increased revenues reflected a strong performance in advertising revenue, with the company posting a record figure for the September quarter, while free-to-air audiences rose 20 percent year on year. On Demand viewing was also up 27 percent year on year, in part due to the launch of Super HD for popular shows such as X Factor and Moto GP,
