NOTES TO THE PARENT COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025 have been prepared in accordance with ANC Regulation 2014-03 of 5 June 2014.
Significant events-
Subscriptions to share issue carried out by Studio TF1
On 18 July 2025, TF1 SA subscribed in full to a €200.0 million share issue carried out by its subsidiary Studio TF1. The issue resulted from the offset of (i) a cash advance of €150.0 million in the form of a shareholder current account and (ii) a bridging loan of €50.0 million. As of 31 December 2025, TF1 held all the shares in Studio TF1.
-
Merger of SPV and TF1 Marketing Services into TF1 SA
During 2025, the subsidiaries TF1 SPV and TF1 Marketing Services were merged into TF1 SA, generating an aggregate negative merger premium of €118.4 million recognised as a financial expense (see Note 4-8, "Financial income and expenses"). In parallel, a provision of €103.0 million against current account advances was reversed (see Note 3-8, "Short-term investments and cash").
-
Treasury shares
Liquidity contract: effective 12 May 2025, TF1 SA retained Natixis Oddo BHF under a liquidity and market monitoring contract in respect of TF1 SA ordinary shares listed on the Euronext market in Paris (see Note 3-8, "Short-term investments and cash").
Repurchase of treasury shares with a view to cancellation: TF1 SA bought 430,000 of its own shares during 2025 for
€3.7 million. Those shares were recognised within "Non-current financial assets" as of 31 December 2025, because the
reduction in share capital had not yet taken place (see Note 3-4, "Non-current financial assets").
Repurchase of treasury shares with a view to fulfilling executive share awards: in connection with performance share plans awarded to key executives, TF1 SA acquired 304,839 of its own shares during 2025 for €2.5 million, in order to fulfil share performance plan awards (see Note 3-8, "Short-term investments and cash").
- Exceptional income tax surcharge
The 2025 French Finance Act was adopted on 14 February 2025. The impact in 2025 arose from the exceptional income tax surcharge for large companies in France, generating a charge of €14.5 million recognised in the TF1 SA financial statements (in respect of the group tax election).
Accounting policiesThe accounting policies described below have been applied in compliance with the principles of prudence, lawfulness and fairness in order to represent faithfully the company's assets, liabilities and financial position and the results of its operations, in accordance with the following fundamental concepts:
going concern;
consistency of method from one period to the next;
accrual basis of accounting;
and in accordance with the general rules applicable to the preparation and presentation of annual individual company financial statements in France.
The basic method used for measuring items recorded in the books of account is the historical cost method.
Comparability of the financial statements Change in accounting regulationsANC Regulation 2022-06, approved on 30 December 2023, amended the French Chart of Accounts (Plan Comptable Général) and applies as of and from 1 January 2025. The new regulation changes the definition of exceptional items, abandons the use of the cost transfers mechanism, and modifies the template of the primary financial statements.
The parent company financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025 have been prepared and presented in accordance with the new regulation. The impacts on key line items in 2025 are described in the following notes:
4-1. Revenue
4-2. Reversals of depreciation, amortisation, provisions and impairment
4-9. Exceptional items
The parent company financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024 have not been retrospectively restated to comply with the new regulation. However, some reclassifications and aggregations have been made between balance sheet and income statement line items in the columns showing 2024 comparatives, in order to align on the new format for primary financial statements.
The following changes have been made in the 2024 comparatives:
intangible assets, previously split between "Audiovisual rights" and "Other intangible assets", are now presented in "Concessions, patents, licences, trademarks, processes, IT solutions, rights, and similar assets" and "Intangible assets in progress, and advance payments";
provisions, previously presented as a single line item, have been disaggregated so that "Provisions for risks" and "Provisions for charges" are presented separately;
the "Prepaid expenses" line item is now incorporated within "Receivables";
cost transfers of an operating nature are now incorporated within "Reversals of depreciation, amortisation, provisions and impairment";
financial income and expenses, previously presented in two separate line items ("Financial income" and "Financial expenses"), are now broken down into a series of more detailed line items; and
exceptional income and expenses are now aggregated within two line items: "Exceptional income" and "Exceptional expenses".
The balance sheet and income statement for the year ended 31 December 2024, as published, are presented in Note 7,
"Balance sheet and income statement for the year ended 31 December 2024".
Intangible assets Audiovisual rightsAudiovisual rights comprise:
drama co-production shares; and
television programmes intended for broadcast on the TF1 channel.
-
Drama co-production shares
This line item shows acquisitions of drama co-production shares made since new regulations came into force in 2015, as an add-on to acquisitions of broadcasting rights for certain programmes. Such acquisitions enable TF1 SA to own certain tangible and intangible assets, in particular the exploitation rights for those programmes.
Payments for such co-production shares are definitively recognised as intangible assets when (i) technical acceptance has occurred and (ii) the rights period has opened for the broadcasting rights acquired in parallel with the co-production share. Payments made for co-production shares before those conditions are met are recognised in the balance sheet as intangible assets in progress. Intangible assets in progress also include advances paid for literary works ahead of co-production contracts.
Co-production shares are amortised over their expected useful lives. A provision for impairment is recognised if expected future revenues are lower than the net book value of the asset. Tax depreciation is charged against co-production shares in accordance with the policies described in Note 2-11, "Restricted provisions".
- Television programmes
This line item shows residual drama co-production shares that pre-date the 2015 regulations, and production shares in other programmes. Television programmes are recognised as intangible assets at the time of technical acceptance and opening of rights, and are measured at the contractual acquisition price. Payments made for rights before those conditions are met are recognised in the balance sheet as intangible assets in progress with effect from the end of shooting.
The amortisation rules applied to capitalised programmes are the same as those for programme inventories (see Note 2-5,
"Inventories").
A provision for impairment is recorded once it becomes probable that a programme including a production share will not be transmitted. Probability of transmission is assessed on the basis of the most recent programming schedules approved by management. Tax depreciation is charged against television programmes not yet transmitted in accordance with the policies described in Note 2-11, "Restricted provisions".
Other intangible assetsOther intangible assets are measured at acquisition cost (or production cost), net of accumulated amortisation and impairment.
Software and licences are amortised on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives. Tax depreciation may be applied on the basis specified in Note 2-11, "Restricted provisions".
Property, plant and equipmentProperty, plant and equipment is carried at acquisition cost net of accumulated depreciation and impairment. Depreciation methods and periods are summarised below:
years
Technical facilities Straight line 3 to 7 Other property, plant and equipment Straight line 3 to 10
years
Non-current financial assets Equity investmentsEquity investments are measured at acquisition cost, comprising the purchase price and transaction costs.
Annual impairment tests are performed on the basis of revenue and profit projections, primarily derived from business plans using the discounted cash flow (DCF) method, or any other method representative of the actual value of the investment (such as share of net assets held). If the value in use of an investment falls significantly below acquisition cost other than on a temporary basis, a provision for impairment is recorded. If necessary, this provision may be supplemented by a provision for impairment of the current account with the investee and a provision for liabilities and charges.
Tax depreciation is charged against transaction costs relating to acquisitions of equity interests in accordance with the policies described in Note 2-11, "Restricted provisions".
Other long-term investment securitiesTreasury shares held with a view to cancellation are recognised within "Other long-term investment securities", at cost plus acquisition-related expenses. No impairment losses are recognised given that the shares are explicitly earmarked for a reduction in share capital.
InventoriesIn order to secure programming schedules for future years, TF1 SA enters into contracts (in addition to production share acquisition contracts) under which it acquires (and the other party agrees to deliver) programme rights and sports transmission rights.
A programme is recognised in inventory once technical acceptance and opening of rights have occurred. Programme inventory is measured at acquisition cost or total production cost (direct costs plus indirect costs attributable to the production, but excluding borrowing costs which are recognised as an expense).
Payments made before the conditions for recognition are met are recognised in the balance sheet under "Advance payments".
Programmes acquired for a single transmission are regarded as having been consumed in full on transmission.
Where programmes are acquired for two or more transmissions, consumption is calculated as follows:
-
Drama co-production shares
Programmes not individually valued in contracts:
Type of programme
Dramas with a running time of at least 52 minutes
Series
Films, TV movies and cartoons
Other programmes
- 1st transmission
80%
67%
50%
100%
- 2nd transmission
20%
33%
50%
Programmes individually valued in contracts: consumption reflects the contractual unit price.
"Other programmes" in the table above refers to children's programmes (other than cartoons), light entertainment, plays,
factual and documentary programmes, news, and dramas with a running time of less than 52 minutes.
A provision for impairment is recognised:
once it becomes probable that a programme will not be transmitted (probability of transmission is assessed on the basis of the most recent programming schedules approved by management);
where it is probable that a programme will be resold, and its carrying value in inventory exceeds the actual or estimated selling price.
Rights acquisition contracts not recognised in inventory at the end of the reporting period are priced at the contractual amount (or the estimated future cash outflow in the case of output deal contracts) less any advance payments made in respect of the contract, which are recognised as an asset in the balance sheet in "Advance payments made on orders"; these contracts are discussed in the section on inventories.
Advance paymentsThis line includes (i) sums paid to acquire rights to broadcast programmes for which technical acceptance and/or opening of rights has yet to occur and (ii) sums paid for production shares in television programmes where shooting has not been completed at the end of the reporting period. A provision for impairment may be taken against advance payments where necessary.
Payments made to purchase sports transmission rights are recognised in "Advance payments" until the sporting event takes place. If the rights are resold, a provision is recorded once the sale is probable, to cover any excess of the amount of advance payments over the actual or estimated selling price.
Trade receivablesTrade receivables are recognised at face value.
Doubtful or disputed accounts are written down via an impairment provision that reflects the age of the debt and the situation of the debtor.
Short-term investmentsShort-term investments consist of treasury shares, measured at cost plus acquisition-related expenses.
TF1 SA holds its own shares:
under the terms of a liquidity contract; and
to fulfil share performance plans awarded to certain employees.
In the case of treasury shares held under the liquidity contract, a provision for impairment is recognised if the realisable value of the treasury shares (taken as the average quoted market price for the last month) is less than acquisition cost.
In the case of treasury shares held to fulfil share performance plans, a provision for risks is recognised equivalent to the probable outflow of resources arising from the obligation to deliver the shares to the key executives involved (see Note 2-13-2, "Provisions for risks").
CashTF1 SA provides centralised treasury management for the Group. Treasury current account debit balances are classified as cash in order to achieve consistency with the classification of treasury current account credit balances included in "Other borrowings".
Foreign-currency transactions and unrealised foreign exchange gains/lossesInvoices received and issued in foreign currencies are translated into euros at the rate prevailing on the date of initial recognition, and foreign-currency payables/receivables at the end of the financial year are translated using the exchange rate prevailing as of 31 December. Unrealised foreign exchange losses and gains are recorded within the relevant line items on the assets and liabilities sides of the balance sheet.
TF1 also recognizes unrealised gains and losses arising on currency hedges associated with payables and receivables carried in its own balance sheet or in the balance sheets of subsidiaries to which it has provided guarantees (see Note 5-2-1, "Hedging of foreign exchange risk").
Any unrealised foreign exchange losses arising as a result are covered by a provision included in "Provisions for liabilities and
charges".
Restricted provisionsThis item comprises:
- tax depreciation on drama co-production shares and television programmes, calculated from the first day of the month following the end of shooting. This tax depreciation is reversed on the date when the asset is definitively recognised as an intangible asset (in the case of co-production shares), or when it is transmitted or written off as no longer transmittable (in the case of television programmes).
The tax depreciation described above is calculated in accordance with the rules defined by the French tax authorities on 3 July 1970. The monthly percentages used are:
- Month 1 | 20% |
- Month 2 | 15% |
- Months 3 to 9 | 5% |
- Months 10 to 24 | 2% |
tax depreciation of software and licences acquired on or before 31 December 2016 or developed internally, in addition to the accounting depreciation recognised in the balance sheet;
tax depreciation on transaction costs on acquisitions of equity interests, calculated over five years on a straight line basis.
The Group uses hedging instruments to limit the impact of interest rate and exchange rate fluctuations on its cash flows and, as the cash pooling unit for the Group, to hedge similar risks incurred by its subsidiaries (see Note 5-2, "Use of hedging instruments").
Group policy is to trade on the financial markets solely for hedging purposes related to its business activities, and not to trade for speculative purposes.
Gains and losses on financial instruments used for hedging purposes are measured and recognised symmetrically with the recognition of gains and losses on the hedged item.
ProvisionsProvisions are recorded when there is a legal or constructive obligation to a third party arising from a past event; the obligation will certainly or probably result in an outflow of resources with no corresponding inflow of resources; and the amount of the outflow can be measured reliably. Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, and adjusted where necessary to reflect the best estimate of the obligation as of that date.
Contingent liabilities are obligations whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence of future events or for which the outflow of resources cannot be measured reliably. No provision is recorded for contingent liabilities.
Provisions for charges: retirement benefit obligationsThe company's employees are entitled to retirement benefits under defined-contribution and defined-benefit plans, which may be partially managed by pension funds.
TF1 SA employees belong to general and supplementary French pension schemes. These are defined-contribution plans, under which the company's obligation is limited to the payment of a periodic contribution based on a specified percentage of staff costs. Those contributions are expensed in profit or loss for the period under "Staff costs".
The pension cost recognised for defined-benefit plans is determined using the projected unit credit method at the expected retirement date, based on final salary, and taking account of:
vested benefit entitlements under collective agreements for each category of employee based on length of service;
staff turnover rate, calculated using historical average data for employees leaving the company;
salaries and wages, including a coefficient for employer's social security charges as currently payable;
an annual salary inflation rate;
life expectancy of employees, determined using statistical tables;
a discount rate, applied to the obligation and reviewed annually.
Benefit entitlement is recognised on a straight line basis only over the final years of service over which an employee's capped benefit rights accrue.
The Group's obligation is partially covered by an insurance contract. The provision for retirement benefits recognised within "Provisions for liabilities and charges" in the balance sheet represents the total obligation less the value of this contract.
Actuarial gains and losses arise on defined-benefit post-employment benefit plans as a result of changes in the actuarial assumptions used to measure the obligation and plan assets from one period to the next, and of differences between actual market conditions and the expected market conditions used in the assumptions. Those actuarial gains and losses are recognised in the income statement at operating level, except for interest on service cost which is recognised as a financial expense.
Provisions for risksThese mainly comprise provisions for litigation and claims. The provision is measured as the probable outflow of resources resulting from ongoing litigation or claims arising from an event prior to the end of the reporting period. They include provisions for tax and social security disputes. The amount shown on reassessment notices issued by the authorities is provided for unless the company regards it as highly probable that it will successfully defend its position against the authorities. The undisputed portion of reassessment notices is recognised as a liability as soon as the amount is known.
Provisions for risks also include provisions related to share performance plans, recognised in order to cover the probable outflow of resources arising from the obligation to deliver the shares to the key executives involved. Those provisions are spread over the vesting period, given that the award of shares is contingent on the beneficiary remaining in service with the company throughout the vesting period.
Advertising revenueSales of advertising airtime are recognised as revenue on transmission of the advertisement or commercial. The revenue recognised is the amount invoiced by advertising sales agencies (primarily TF1 Publicité) to the advertiser for the airtime, less the agency commission.
TF1 makes marginal use of barter transactions involving advertising with media other than television, such as radio or print media. Such transactions are reported on a non-netted basis in "Revenue" and in "External charges".
Off balance sheet commitments:Image transmission commitments represent fees payable to transmission service operators until the expiry date of their contracts.
Caution money and guarantees paid under commercial contracts are disclosed as off balance sheet commitments.

TF1 made a group tax election on 1 January 1989. Under the group tax election agreement, the tax liability borne by each company included in the election is the same as it would have borne had there been no group tax election. The group tax election included 40 companies as of 31 December 2025.
The tax group had no tax losses available for carry-forward as of 31 December 2025.
The difference between the standard French tax rate and the effective tax rate, in both 2025 and 2024, is due to
(i) deductions of income and add-backs of expenses not taxed at the full rate (mainly dividends and long-term capital gains and losses) and (ii) adjustments related to the tax group (tax savings arising from the losses of tax group member companies, and eliminations/reinstatements of intragroup transactions).
The total amount of tax losses of subsidiaries that generated savings for the tax group in 2025 and may generate a tax
liability in the future is €52.9 million.

This item relates to guarantees provided by TF1 SA against default by its subsidiaries.
Other commitments given and received mainly comprise the fair value of currency and interest rate instruments (see Note 5-2-1, "Hedging of foreign exchange risk").
Other reciprocal commitments relating to the operating cycle are reported in the notes relating to the relevant balance sheet item (in particular, commitments to secure future programming schedules) and to the financing of those items (see Note 3-11-1, "Bank borrowings").
TF1 SA had not contracted any complex commitments as of 31 December 2025.
5-2. Use of hedging instruments 5-2-1. Hedging of foreign exchange riskTF1 is exposed to fluctuations in exchange rates as a result of:
making and receiving commercial payments in foreign currencies; and
providing subsidiaries with a guaranteed annual exchange rate per currency, applied to annual projections of their foreign-currency cash needs or surpluses.
The policy applied within Group companies is to systematically hedge all residual currency exposure relating to commercial transactions, using forward purchases and sales or currency swaps. The strategy applied is to lock in or guarantee a maximum exchange rate on its net long position and a minimum exchange rate on its net short position in each of the currencies used, over a rolling 12-to-18-month period depending on market opportunities. Currency positions are managed centrally.
At the end of each reporting period, TF1 recognises:
the foreign exchange loss or gain arising from the application of the foreign exchange guarantees described above;
unrealised foreign exchange gains and losses arising on payables and receivables carried in its own balance sheet or in the balance sheets of subsidiaries to which it has provided guarantees.
As of 31 December 2025, the net equivalent value of such hedging instruments contracted with banks was €90.8 million:
€62.9 million of forward purchases, denominated (i) in US dollars (USD 72.2 million valued at the closing exchange rate, i.e. €61.4 million); (ii) in Canadian dollars (CAD 1.9 million valued at the closing exchange rate, i.e. €1.2 million); and (iii) in pounds sterling (GBP 0.3 million valued at the closing exchange rate, i.e. €0.3 million); and
€27.9 million of forward sales, denominated (i) in Swiss francs (CHF 18.0 million valued at the closing exchange
rate, i.e. €19.3 million); and (ii) in euros (€8.6 million).
5-2-2. Hedges of interest rate riskBecause TF1 SA is carrying no medium/long-term debt, it acts as intermediary between its subsidiaries and their banks in setting up interest rate hedges for subsidiaries. The principle applied within Group entities is to hedge some or all of their existing or probable financial assets and liabilities liable to generate interest payments or receipts in the medium to long term. The aim is to control future financial income and expenses, locking in the cost of debt in the medium to long term by using swaps of amounts and maturities that match those of the financial assets and liabilities in question. Interest rate positions are managed centrally.
TF1 SA uses interest rate swaps to protect its subsidiaries against fluctuations in interest rates on loans contracted by the subsidiaries.
As of 31 December 2025, the overall equivalent nominal value of such hedging instruments contracted with banks was €115.8
million:
in Canadian dollars: for an amount of CAD 76.8 million valued at the closing exchange rate (i.e. €47.7 million), expiring
June 2027, pay fixed rate; and
in US dollars: for an amount of USD 80.0 million valued at the closing exchange rate (i.e. €68.1 million), expiring June
2027, pay fixed rate.
