VGI Global Media Public Company Limited reported company and consolidated earnings results for the third quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2014. On consolidated basis, for the quarter, the group reported net profit of THB 300,840,000 or THB 0.09 per share against net profit of THB 317,281,000 or THB 0.09 per share reported for the same period a year ago. Revenue from services decreased 2.0% year on year from THB 805.5 million to THB 789.4 million. The decrease was mainly due to declining revenue from Modern Trade media as a result of the economic slowdown as well as the decline in sales from Tesco Lotus sales floor media since October 2014 (in anticipation of the contact termination in February 2015). Nevertheless, BTS-related media continued to perform well despite the overall media industry decline, showing a 12.1% year on year growth from new digital media on BTS stations and an increase in train's capacity (additional five-4 car trains) from the same period last year. Return on equity was 62% against 46.6% a year ago. Return on assets was 41.9% against 30.2% a year ago.
On consolidated basis, for the nine months, the group reported net profit of THB 822,537,000 or THB 0.24 per share against net profit of THB 952,897,000 or THB 0.28 per share reported for the same period a year ago.
On company basis, for the quarter, the company reported net profit of THB 271,959,000 or THB 0.08 per share against net profit of THB 379,757,000 or THB 0.11 per share reported for the same period a year ago.
On company basis, for the nine months, the company reported net profit of THB 833,606,000 or THB 0.24 per share against net profit of THB 992,997,000 or THB 0.29 per share reported for the same period a year ago.
