The Publisuisse Board of Directors was re-elected in its current composition at the Annual General Meeting. The profit for the 2009 fiscal year amounted to 0.5 million Swiss francs.
The Annual General Meeting confirmed the current composition of the Board of Directors for a further term of office of three years as follows, according to a statement issued on Thursday:
President: Gilles Marchand, Director RTS
Vice President: Paul Nyffeler, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Association of Swiss Cantonal Banks
Members: Dino Balestra, Director RSI / Roger Basler, Managing Director Europe Dyson SA / Ueli Haldimann, Director SF / Nico Issenmann, Owner Issenmann AG / Daniel Jorio, Director Finance & Controlling SRG / Gérard Tschopp, Head of Overall Project Convergence & Efficiency SRG.
Publisuisse reported total net sales of just over CHF 295 million in the 2009 financial year. This falls short of the previous year's result (CHF 327 million) (-10%). Net sales from the marketing of traditional TV advertising for SRG SSR channels amounted to just over CHF 267 million (-9%). In the other business areas (TV and radio sponsorship, Tele Romandie Combi, Tele News Combi, "Espace TSR" screens), net revenue totaled CHF 28 million, which corresponds to a decline of 18% compared to the previous year. Operating income amounted to CHF 277 million (-10% compared to the previous year). Net profit after tax amounted to CHF 0.5 million. The negative effect on Publisuisse's result due to the significant drop in sales in the crisis year 2009 was kept within limits thanks to strict cost management.
