ProSiebenSat.1 now expects a slight decline in organic group revenue in 2026 instead of a previously planned increase, attributing this to persistent weak consumer demand and falling advertising budgets.

Net financial debt is expected to remain stable, with a target leverage ratio of 3.0x–3.5x, leaving limited financial headroom. » Więcej na finanzen.net
