 At its Annual General Meeting on May 22, the "Basel Cable Network Foundation" approved the annual financial statements of Tele Basel. The turnover of CHF 5,510,238 is offset by a profit carried forward of CHF 45,116. The daily viewer reach increased last year to 120,000 people (+ 7 percent), the market share is now at 2 percent (+ 0.1 percent). According to a press release issued on Friday, these figures mean that Tele Basel has achieved the second largest reach and market share per broadcasting area of all Swiss private TV stations after Tele Züri. In order to ensure the quality of the TV program, it was decided to create a consultative working group with experts in view of the new broadcasting license that may be granted by the Federal Council in June.
