Business Segments

For management purposes, the Company presents its operations into the following reportable businesses:
TV and Studio Operations, Pay TV Networks and New Businesses.

This segmentation is the basis upon which the Company measures its business operations.

TV and Studio Operations


TV and studio operations segment is comprised of broadcast, global operations, film and music production,
cable channels, and publishing. This consists of local and global content creation and distribution through
television and radio broadcasting.

Broadcast segment covers content creation and distribution mainly through free TV
and radio with Channel 2 and DZMM as its flagship platforms. The content created
is predominantly in Filipino and is aimed at the mass Filipino audience. The
Companys leading position in the Philippine television broadcasting industry is
largely due to the popularity of its entertainment programs, including teleseryes,
drama anthologies, situation comedies, variety, reality and game shows. On the other
hand, news and public affairs programs have developed a reputation for the quality of
news coverage that includes national, local and international events.
Global segment, through ABS-CBN International, North America (NA), pioneered
the international content distribution through Direct to Home (DTH), cable, internet
protocol TV, mobile and online through The Filipino Channel (TFC). It is available
in all territories where there is a significant market of overseas Filipinos such as the
Unites States, Middle East, Europe, Australia, Canada and Asia Pacific. Other
activities include international film distribution, sponsorship and events, remittance
and retail.
Films and Music segment of the Company is composed of movie production, film
distribution, audio recording and distribution and video/audio post production. Films
are generally produced through its subsidiary ABS-CBN Film Productions (AFPI) or
more popularly known as Star Cinema. Other movies are co-produced with other
local or international producers or are simply distributed by AFPI. Music needs are
managed by Star Recording, Inc. and Star Songs, Inc. to complement the recording
needs of the Companys multi-talented artists and handle music publishing and
composing requirements, respectively.
Narrowcast and Sports segment caters to the needs of specific or targeted audiences
or markets not normally addressed by the Broadcast business. Included in this line of
business are cable programming and channel offerings such as Filipino movie
channel, music channel, anim, upscale male sports content and upscale female
lifestyle content. It also covers print, sports, and other niched programming via its
UHF (Ultra High Frequency) channel. Narrowcast and Sports includes the following
subsidiaries: Creative Programs, Inc. and ABS-CBN Publishing, Inc. As part of the
Companys goal to elevate boxing as a sport in the country, it entered into a joint
venture agreement with ALA Promotions, Inc., a world class boxing organization and
promotional company.

Pay TV Networks

Pay TV networks include cable television services of Sky Cable and


its subsidiaries in Metro Manila and in certain provincial areas in the
Philippines. It offers both postpaid and prepaid packages as well as a
la carte programming, broadband, internet phone, among others.
Consumers are given various options that can be tailor fitted to suit
their specific requirements including the ability to have a real triple-
play service in the market that combines cable TV, broadband and
internet phone. Catch up feature on missed programming via iWantv
were provided as an option to the customers for a total pay TV
entertainment package. With Sky Cables acquisition of Destiny
Cable, Sky Cable accounts for nearly half of the total local pay TV
market.

New Businesses
New businesses and initiatives pertain to wireless telecommunications business, digital terrestrial TV and
theme parks.

ABS-CBNMobile
Wireless Telecommunications business was established on May 28, 2013
through ABS-CBNmobiles network sharing agreement with Globe Telecom.
This partnership enables ABS-CBN to deliver ABS-CBN content in addition to
traditional telecommunication services on mobile devices. Through the network-
sharing agreement, Globe will provide capacity and coverage on its existing
cellular mobile telephony network to ABS-CBN Convergence on a nationwide
basis. The parties may also share assets such as servers, towers, and switches.
On November 16, 2013, ABS-CBN Mobiles pre-paid service was launched.
Digital Terrestrial TV
The Company continues to invest in Digital Terrestrial TV equipment to improve
clarity of signal in certain areas of Mega Manila and Central Luzon. The
company believes that the transition from analogue to digital will result in an
increase in its audience share. The Company will be ready to launch as soon as
the implementing rules and regulations is released.
Theme Parks
The Company has also invested in a theme park more popularly known as
Kidzania Manila. KidZania provides children and their parents a safe, unique,
and very realistic educational environment that allows kids between the ages of
four to twelve to do what comes naturally to them: role-playing by mimicking
traditionally adult activities. As in the real world, children perform "jobs" and are
either paid for their work (as a fireman, doctor, police officer, journalist,
shopkeeper, etc.) or pay to shop or to be entertained. The indoor theme park is a
city built to scale for children, complete with buildings, paved streets, vehicles, a
functioning economy, and recognizable destinations in the form of
"establishments" sponsored and branded by leading multi-national and local
brands.
Home Shopping
A CJ O Shopping Corporation is a joint venture between ABS-CBN and CJ O
Shopping Corporation of Korea to provide TV home shopping in the Philippines.

4. Seasonality of Operations

The Companys operations are not general affected by any seasonality or cyclicality.

5. Segment Information

The Executive Committee, the Companys chief operating decision maker, monitors operating
results of its business segments separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource
allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated based on operating
profit or loss and is measured consistently with operating profit and loss in the interim condensed
consolidated financial statements.

On a consolidated basis, the Companys performance is evaluated based on consolidated net


income for the year, core net income, earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and
amortization (EBITDA) and EBITDA margin. EBITDA margin pertains to EBITDA divided by
gross revenues.

Core net income for the year is measured as consolidated net income before adjustments required
under PFRS 3 arising from the acquisition of Sky Cable which relate to the amortization of
customer relationships and depreciation and amortization of fair value increase in property and
equipment, gain on acquisition and exchange of debt and elimination of interest income pertaining
to the accretion of receivable, net of related tax effect.

EBITDA, EBITDA margin and core net income are non-PFRS measures.

30. Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies

Capital Management
The Companys capital structure pertains to the mix of long-term sources of funds. When the
Company expands, it needs capital, and that capital can come from debt or equity.

The primary objective of the Companys capital management is to ensure that it maintains healthy
capital ratios and strong credit ratings while viably supporting its business to maximize
shareholder value.

The Companys approach focuses on efficiently allocating internally generated cash for
operational requirements and investments to grow the existing business as well as to deliver on its
commitment of a regular dividend payout at a maximum of 50% of the previous years net
income. Shortages if any and acquisitions or investments in new business are funded by the
incurrence of additional debt largely capped by existing loan covenants on financial ratios.
As evidenced by the quarterly financial certificates that the Company issued to its lenders, all
financial ratios are within the required limits all throughout 2014 and 2013 as follows:

2014 Financial Ratios Required 1st Quarter


Loan Agreement
Debt to equity Less than or equal to 2.50 1.51

2013 Financial Ratios Required 1st Quarter 2nd Quarter 3rd Quarter 4th Quarter

Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of
financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate such value:
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Trade and Other Receivables and Trade and Other Payables. Due to
the short-term nature of transactions, the fair values of these instruments approximate the carrying
amounts as of financial reporting date.

Deposits. Fair value of these instruments is computed by discounting future cash flows using the
risk-free interest rates for similar type of instruments adjusted for credit risk.
AFS Investments. The fair values of publicly-traded instruments were determined by reference to
market bid quotes as of financial reporting date. Investments in unquoted equity securities for
which no reliable basis for fair value measurement is available are carried at cost, net of any
impairment.

Interest-bearing Loans and Borrowings. Fair value was computed based on the following:

Fair Value Assumptions


Term loans Estimated fair value is based on the discounted value of
future cash flows using the applicable risk-free rates for
similar types of loans adjusted for credit risk. The interest
rates used to discount the future cash flows have ranged from
0.4% to 3.7%.

Other variable rate loans The face value approximates fair value because of recent and
frequent repricing (i.e., 3 months) based on market
conditions.

Obligations for Program Rights. Estimated fair value is based on the discounted value of future
cash flows using the applicable risk-free rates for similar types of loans adjusted for credit risk.

Convertible Note. Fair value was computed based on the discounted value of future cash flows
using the PDST-R2 rate plus 1% credit spread.

Customers Deposits. The fair values were calculated by discounting the expected future cash
flows at prevailing PDST-F rate plus applicable credit spread ranging from 2.77% to 4.75% and
1.0% to 4.8% in as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
There were no transfers between levels in the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2014 and
December 31, 2013.

Offsetting of Financial Assets and Liabilities


There is no offsetting of financial assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2014 and December 31,
2013.

32. EPS Computations

Basic EPS amounts are calculated by dividing the net income for the period attributable to
common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (net of
PDRs) during the period.

The following table presents information necessary to calculate EPS:

Three Months Ended March 31


2014 2013
Net income attributable to equity holders of the
Parent Company P
=626,693 =507,712
P
Dividends on preferred shares (1,000) (667)
(a) Net income attributable to common equity
holders of the Parent Company P
=625,693 =507,045
P

(b) Weighted average of shares outstanding:


At beginning of year 797,137,500 741,406,393
Acquisitions of PDRs (see Note 21) (843,767)
At end of year 796,293,733 741,406,393

Basic/diluted EPS (a/b) P


=0.786 =0.684
P

The Company has no dilutive potential common shares outstanding, therefore basic EPS is the
same as diluted EPS.

33. Note to Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows

Noncash investing activity pertains to acquisition of program rights amounted to P


=80,774 and
=209,008 as of March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
P

34. Events After the Reporting Period

On April 21, 2014, the BOD approved the Plan of Merger of ABS-CBN Films, Star Recording and
Star Songs, with ABS-CBN Films as surviving corporation.
35. Contingent Liabilities and Other Matters

a. The Parent Company has contingent liabilities with respect to claims and lawsuits filed by
third parties. The events that transpired last February 4, 2006, which resulted in the death of
71 people and injury to about 200 others led the Parent Company to shoulder the burial
expenses of the dead and medical expenses of the injured, which did not result in any direct or
contingent financial obligation that is material to the Parent Company. The Parent Company
has settled all of the funeral and medical expenses of the victims of the tragedy. Given the
income flows and net asset base of the Parent Company, said expenses do not constitute a
material financial obligation of the Parent Company, as the Parent Company remains in sound
financial position to meet its obligations.

As of March 31, 2014, the claims, including those in connection with the events of February 4,
2006, are still pending and remain contingent liabilities. While the funeral and medical
expenses have all been shouldered by the Parent Company, there still exist claims for
compensation for the deaths and injuries, the amount of which have not been declared and
cannot be determined with certainty at this time. Management is nevertheless of the opinion
that should there be any adverse judgment based on these claims, this will not materially affect
the Parent Companys financial position and performance.

b. In relation to the consolidation of Sky Cable and Home Cable in 2004, a competitor television
broadcasting company (complainant) filed a case before the NTC for unlawful merger and
unlawful cross-ownership and common control and operations of telecommunications
companies and cable companies with a prayer for cease and desist order. As of March 31,
2014, the case is still pending before the NTC. It is the opinion of Sky Visions legal counsels
that the case filed by the complainant is without legal basis and would not have a material
impact to the consolidated financial statements.
