These unfavorable variances were partially offset by (i) a Ps.4,508.4 million decrease in finance expense, net; (ii) a Ps.3,291.6 million decrease in share of loss of associates and joint ventures, net; and (iii) a Ps.956.3 million favorable change in net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests.

Fourth quarter revenuesdecreased by 15.3% to Ps.4,181.6 million compared with Ps.4,936.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, mainly explained by the year-on-year decline in RGUs and lower recharges at Sky's prepaid packages.

Full year revenueswere Ps.17,585.2 million, declining 13.5% compared with Ps.20,339.0 million in 2022.

Fourth quarter operating segment incomedecreased by 0.9% to Ps.1,140.9 million compared with Ps.1,151.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, driven mainly by the lower revenue. The margin was 27.3%, expanding by 400 basis points year-on-year.

Full year operating segment income decreased by 10.7% to Ps.5,731.4 million compared with Ps.6,416.3 million in 2022, impacted by the lower revenue. The margin was 32.6%, an expansion of 110 basis points compared with 2022.

Other Businesses

Fourth quarter revenuesincreased by 6.3% to Ps.2,127.8 million compared with Ps.2,002.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Full year revenues increased by 7.2% to Ps.7,870.6 million compared with Ps.7,338.8 million in 2022. This growth was mainly driven by a better performance in the gaming and fútbol businesses.

Fourth quarter operating segment income decreased by 7.2% to Ps.463.1 million compared with Ps.499.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Full year operating segment income increased by 15.5% to Ps.1,952.4 million compared with Ps.1,691.0 million in 2022.

Corporate Expense

Corporate expense decreased by Ps.278.2 million, or 18.1%, to Ps.1,259.9 million in 2023, from Ps.1,538.1 million in 2022. The decrease reflected primarily a lower share-based compensation expense, as well as a decrease in other non-allocated corporate expenses.

Share-based compensation expense in 2023 and 2022 amounted to Ps.748.5 million and Ps.968.6 million, respectively, and was accounted for as corporate expense. Share-based compensation expense is measured at fair value at the time the equity benefits are conditionally sold to officers and employees and is recognized over the vesting period.

Other Expense, Net

Other expense, net, increased by Ps.51.2 million, to Ps.866.8 million in 2023, from Ps.815.6 million in 2022. This increase reflected primarily (i) an increase in non-recurring severance expense in connection with headcount reductions in our Cable segment; (ii) non-recurring expense related to damage caused by Hurricane "Otis" in our Cable segment; and (iii) impairment adjustments of long-lived assets. These unfavorable variances were partially offset by (i) the absence in 2023 of other expense in connection with a settlement agreement of a class action in the fourth quarter of 2022; and (ii) an interest income for recovery of asset tax from prior years.

Finance expense, net, decreased by Ps.4,508.4 million, or 49.0%, to a Ps.4,697.8 million in 2023, from Ps.9,206.2 million in 2022.

This decrease reflected:

(i)
a Ps.1,801.3 million decrease in interest expense in connection with a lower average principal amount of debt in the year ended December 31, 2023, resulting primarily from prepayments made in 2023 of our long-term debt;
(ii)
a Ps.1,156.3 million increase in interest income explained primarily by higher interest rates in 2023, which effect was partially offset by a lower average amount of cash and cash equivalents for the year ended December 31, 2023; and
(iii)
a Ps.1,574.9 million decrease in foreign exchange loss, net, resulting primarily from the appreciation of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar on a lower average U.S. dollar net asset position for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to a higher average U.S. dollar net asset position for the year ended December 31, 2022, which was partially offset by a 13.1% appreciation of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar in 2023, compared to a 5.0% appreciation in 2022.

These favorable variances were partially offset by a Ps.24.1 million increase in other finance expense, net, resulting from a higher loss in fair value of our derivative contracts for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Share of Loss of Associates and Joint Ventures, Net

Share of loss of associates and joint ventures, net, decreased by Ps.3,291.6 million, to a share of loss of Ps.4,086.6 million in 2023, from Ps.7,378.2 million in 2022. This decrease reflected primarily a lower net loss of TelevisaUnivision for the year ended December 31, 2023.

We recognized a share of the loss of TelevisaUnivision in 2023 and 2022, primarily in connection with an impairment adjustment for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets recognized by TelevisaUnivision in the fourth quarter of 2023 and 2022.

Share of loss of associates and joint ventures, net, for the year ended December 31, 2023, included primarily our share of loss of TelevisaUnivision.

Income Taxes

Income taxes changed by Ps.3,905.8 million, to an income tax expense of Ps.2,678.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, from an income tax benefit of Ps.1,227.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. This unfavorable change reflected a non-cash net income tax expense primarily in connection with an assessment of the tax authority to reduce certain tax loss carryforwards for which a deferred income tax was recognized in prior years, as well as write-offs of deferred income tax assets.

Spun-off Businesses

In connection with a spin-off proposal approved by our Board of Directors and Stockholders to separate most of the net assets comprising the operations of our former Other Businesses segment ("Spun-off Businesses"):

(i)
a new controlling entity of the Spun-off Businesses, Ollamani, S.A.B. ("Ollamani"), was incorporated under the laws of Mexico as a limited liability public stock corporation on January 31, 2024;

(ii)
a spin-off of the Spun-off Businesses was carried out on January 31, 2024;

(iii)
we obtained all required corporate and regulatory authorizations for this spin-off proposal on February 12, 2024;

(iv)
the shares of Ollamani were listed and began to trade on February 20, 2024, in the form of CPOs, on the Mexican Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "AGUILAS CPO"; and

(v)
beginning in the first quarter of 2024, we will begin to present the results of operations of our Spun-off Businesses as discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of income for any comparative prior period and for the month ended January 31, 2024.

Shares Outstanding

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, our shares outstanding amounted to 323,976.5 million and 330,739.7 million shares, respectively, and our CPO equivalents outstanding amounted to 2,769.0 million and 2,826.8 million CPO equivalents, respectively. Not all of our shares are in the form of CPOs. The number of CPO equivalents is calculated by dividing the number of shares outstanding by 117.

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the GDS (Global Depositary Shares) equivalents outstanding amounted to 553.8 million and 565.4 million GDS equivalents, respectively. The number of GDS equivalents is calculated by dividing the number of CPO equivalents by five.



Internal control
The Company has an integral internal control system. The system is based on business, operating and administrative general policies, as well as the assignment of responsibilities and authorization capacities, in accordance with the nature and significance of identified risks affecting the Company.

The internal control system is currently being optimized and adjusted to international models and best corporate practices. This process includes the update and/or implementation of the following matters:

•
Control environment: issuance of senior management pronouncements in the areas of risks and internal control, the issuance of the Ethics Code, the communication and trainning on risk and control matters, and the update of the general model of responsibilities and capacities
•
Risk assessment: systematization of the process to identify, manage and control risks
•
Control Activities: coordination of internal control procedures and activities with supervisory processes

The governance body responsible for the authorization of the Company's internal control system is the Board of Directors through the Audit Committee.

[800007] Annex - Financial derivate instruments




Management discussion about the policy uses of financial derivative instruments, explaining if these policies are allowed just for coverage or for other uses like trading

EXHIBIT 1
TO THE ELECTRONIC FORM TITLED "PREPARATION, FILING, DELIVERY AND DISCLOSURE OF QUARTERLY ECONOMIC, ACCOUNTING AND ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION BY ISSUERS"

III. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE INFORMATION

i.Management's discussion of the policies concerning the use of financial derivative instruments, and explanation as to whether such policies permit the use of said instruments solely for hedging or also for trading or other purposes. The discussion must include a general description of the objectives sought in the execution of financial derivative transactions; the relevant instruments; the hedging or trading strategies implemented in connection therewith; the relevant trading markets; the eligible counterparties; the policies for the appointment of calculation or valuation agents; the principal terms and conditions of the relevant contracts; the policies as to margins, collateral and lines of credit; the authorization process and levels of authorization required by type of transaction (e.g., full hedging, partial hedging, speculation), stating whether the transactions were previously approved by the committee(s) responsible for the development of corporate and auditing practices; the internal control procedures applicable to the management of the market and liquidity risks associated with the positions; and the existence of an independent third party responsible for the review of such procedures and, as the case may be, the observations raised or deficiencies identified by such third party. If applicable, provide information concerning the composition of the overall risk management committee, its operating rules, and the existence of an overall risk management manual.
Management's discussion of the policies concerning the use of financial derivative instruments, and explanation as to whether such policies permit the use of said instruments solely for hedging or also for trading or other purposes.
In accordance with the policies and procedures implemented by the Vice President of Finance and Risk and the Vice President and Corporate Controller, along with the Vice President of Internal Audit, the Company has entered into certain financial derivative transactions for hedging purposes in both the Mexican and international markets so as to manage its exposure to the market risks associated with the changes in interest and foreign exchange rates and inflation. In addition, the Company's Investments Committee has established guidelines for the investment in structured notes or deposits associated with other derivatives, which by their nature may be considered as derivative transactions for trading purposes. It should be noted that in the fourth quarter of 2023, no such financial derivatives were outstanding. Pursuant to the provisions of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), certain financial derivative transactions originally intended to serve as a hedge and in effect as of December 29, 2023, are not within the scope of hedge accounting as specified in such Standards and, consequently, are recognized in the accounting based on the provisions included in the aforementioned Standards.
General description of the objectives sought in the execution of financial derivative transactions; the relevant instruments; the hedging or trading strategies implemented in connection therewith; the relevant trading markets; the eligible counterparties; the policies for the appointment of calculation or valuation agents; the principal terms and conditions of the relevant contracts; the policies as to margins, collateral and lines of credit; the authorization process and levels of authorization required by type of transaction (e.g., full hedging, partial hedging, speculation), stating whether the transactions were previously approved by the committee(s) responsible for the development of corporate and auditing practices; the internal control procedures applicable to the management of the market and liquidity risks associated with the positions; and the existence of an independent third party responsible for the review of such procedures and, as the case may be, the observations raised or deficiencies identified by such third party.
The Company's principal objective when entering into financial derivative transactions is to mitigate the effects of unforeseen changes in interest and foreign exchange rates and inflation, so as to reduce the volatility in its results and cash flows as a result of such changes.

36 of 94

The Company monitors its exposure to the interest rate risk by: (i) assessing the difference between the interest rates applicable to its debt and temporary investments, and the prevailing market rates for similar instruments; (ii) reviewing its cash flow requirements and financial ratios (interest coverage); (iii) assessing the actual and budgeted-for trends in the principal markets; and (iv) assessing the prevailing industry practices and other similar companies. This approach enables the Company to determine the optimum mix between fixed- and variable-rate interest for its debt.
Foreign exchange risk is monitored by assessing the Company's monetary position in U.S. dollars and its budgeted cash flow requirements for investments anticipated to be denominated in U.S. dollars and the service of its U.S. dollar-denominated debt.
Financial derivative transactions are reported from time to time to the Audit Committee.
The Company has entered into master derivatives agreements with both domestic and foreign financial institutions, that are internationally recognized institutions with which the Company, from time to time, has entered into financial transactions involving corporate and investment banking, as well as treasury services. The form agreement used in connection with financial derivatives transactions with foreign financial institutions is the Master Agreement published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. ("ISDA") and with local institutions is the Master Agreement published by ISDA and in some instances, using the form agreement ISDAmex. In both cases, the main terms and conditions are standard for these types of transactions and include mechanisms for the appointment of calculation or valuation agents.
In addition, the Company enters into standard guaranty agreements that set forth the margins, collateral and lines of credit applicable in each instance. These agreements establish the credit limits granted by the financial institutions with whom the Company enters into master financial derivative agreements, which specify the margin implications in the case of potential negative changes in the market value of its open financial derivative positions. Pursuant to the agreements entered into by the Company, financial institutions are entitled to make margin calls if certain thresholds are exceeded. In the event of a change in the credit rating issued to the Company by a recognized credit rating agency, the credit limit granted by each counterparty would be modified.
As of the date hereof, the Company has never experienced a margin call with respect to its financial derivative transactions.
In compliance with its risk management objectives and hedging strategies, the Company generally utilizes the following financial derivative transactions:
1.
Cross-currency interest rate swaps (i.e., coupon swaps);
2.
Interest rate and inflation-indexed swaps;
3.
Cross-currency principal and interest rate swaps;
4.
Swaptions;
5.
Forward exchange rate contracts;
6.
FX options;
7.
Interest Rate Caps and Floors contracts;
8.
Fixed-price contracts for the acquisition of government securities (i.e., Treasury locks); and
9.
Credit Default Swaps.
The strategies for the acquisition of financial derivatives transactions are approved by the Risk Management Committee in accordance with the Policies and Objectives for the Use of Financial Derivatives.
During the quarter from October to December 2023, there were no defaults or margin calls under the aforementioned financial derivative transactions.
The Company monitors on a weekly basis the flows generated by the fair market value of and the potential for margin calls under its open financial derivative transactions. The calculation or valuation agent designated in the relevant Master Agreement, which is always the counterparty, issues monthly reports as to the fair market value of the Company's open positions.




37 of 94



The Risk Management area is responsible for measuring, at least once a month, the Company's exposure to the financial market risks associated with its financings and investments, and for submitting a report with respect to the Company's risk position and the valuation of its financial derivatives to the Finance Committee on a monthly basis, and to the Risk Management Committee on a quarterly basis. The Company monitors the credit rating assigned to its counterparties in its outstanding financial derivative transactions on a regular basis.
The office of the Comptroller is responsible for the validation of the Company's accounting records as related to its financial derivative transactions, based upon the confirmations received from the relevant financial intermediaries, and for obtaining from such intermediaries, on a monthly basis, confirmations or account statements supporting the market valuation of its open financial derivative positions.
As a part of the yearly audit on the Company, the aforementioned procedures are reviewed by the Company's external auditors. As of the date hereof, the Company's auditors have not raised any observation or identified any deficiency therein.
Information concerning the composition of the overall risk management committee, its operating rules, and the existence of an overall risk management manual.
The Company has a Risk Management Committee, which is responsible for monitoring the Company's risk management activities and approving the hedging strategies used to mitigate the financial market risks to which the Company is exposed. The assessment and hedging of the financial market risks are subject to the policies and procedures applicable to the Company's Risk Management Committee, the Finance and Risk Management areas and the Comptroller that form the Risk Management Manual of the Company. In general terms, the Risk Management Committee is comprised of members of the Corporate Management, Corporate Comptroller, Tax Control and Advice, Information to the Stock Exchange, Finance and Risk, Legal, Administration and Finance, Financial Planning and Corporate Finance areas.


General description about valuation techniques, standing out the instruments valuated at cost or fair value, just like methods and valuation techniques

ii. General description of the valuation methods, indicating whether the instruments are valued at cost or at their fair value pursuant to the applicable accounting principles, the relevant reference valuation methods and techniques, and the events taken into consideration. Describe the policies for and frequency of the valuation, as well as the actions taken in light of the values obtained therefrom. Clarify whether the valuation is performed by an independent third party, and indicate if such third party is the structurer, seller or counterparty of the financial instrument. As with respect to financial derivative transactions for hedging purposes, explain the method used to determine the effectiveness thereof and indicate the level of coverage provided thereby.
The Company values its financial derivative instruments based upon the standard models and calculators provided by recognized market makers. In addition, the Company uses the relevant market variables available from online sources. The financial derivative instruments are valued at a reasonable value pursuant to the applicable accounting provisions.
In the majority of cases, the valuation at a reasonable value is carried out on a monthly basis based on valuations of the counterparties and the verification of such reasonable value with internal valuations prepared by the Risk Management area of the Company. Accounting wise, the valuation of the counterparty is registered.
The Company performs its valuations without the participation of any independent third party.
The method used by the Company to determine the effectiveness of an instrument depends on the hedging strategy and on whether the relevant transaction is intended as a fair-value hedge or a cash-flow hedge. The Company's methods take into consideration the prospective cash flows generated by or the changes in the fair value of the financial derivative, and the cash flows generated by or the changes in the fair value of the underlying position that it seeks to hedge to determine, in each case, the hedging ratio.

Management discussion about internal and external sources of liquidity that could be used for attending requirements related to financial derivate instruments

iii. Management's discussion of the internal and external sources of liquidity that could be used to satisfy the Company's requirements in connection with its financial derivatives.
As of the date hereof, the Company's management has not discussed internal and external sources of liquidity so as to satisfy its requirements in connection with its financial derivatives since, based upon the aggregate amount of the Company's financial derivative transactions, management is of the opinion that the Company's significant positions of cash, cash equivalents and temporary investments, and the substantial cash flows generated by the Company, would enable the Company to respond adequately to any such requirements.


Changes and management explanation in principal risk exposures identified, as contingencies and events known by the administration that could affect future reports

iv.Explanation as to any change in the issuer's exposure to the principal risks identified thereby and, in their management, and any contingency or event known to or anticipated by the issuer's management, which could affect any future report. Description of any circumstance or event, such as any change in the value of the underlying assets or reference variables, resulting in a financial derivative being used other than as originally intended, or substantially altering its structure, or resulting in the partial or total loss of the hedge, thereby forcing the Issuer to assume new obligations, commitments or changes in its cash flows in a manner that affects its liquidity (e.g., margin calls). Description of the impact of such financial derivative transactions on the issuer's results or cash flows. Description and number of financial derivatives maturing during the quarter, any closed positions and, if applicable, number and amount of margin calls experienced during the quarter. Disclosure as to any default under the relevant contracts.
Changes in the Company's exposure to the principal risks identified thereby and, in their management, and contingencies or events known to or anticipated by the Company's management, which could affect any future report.
Since a significant portion of the Company's debt and costs are denominated in U.S. dollars, while its revenues are primarily denominated in Mexican pesos, depreciation in the value of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar and any future depreciation could have a negative effect on the Company's results due to exchange rate losses. However, the significant amount of U.S. dollars in the Company's treasury, and the hedging strategies adopted by the Company in recent years, have enabled it to avoid significant foreign exchange losses.
Circumstances or events, such as changes in the value of the underlying assets or reference variables, resulting in a financial derivative being used other than as originally intended, or substantially altering its structure, or resulting in the partial or total loss of the hedge, thereby forcing the Company to assume new obligations, commitments or changes in its cash flows in a manner that affects its liquidity (e.g., margin calls). Description of the impact of such financial derivative transactions on the Company's results or cash flows.
As of the date hereof, no circumstance or event of a financial derivative transaction, resulted in a partial or total loss of the relevant hedge requiring that the Company assume new obligations, commitments or variations in its cash flow such that its liquidity is affected.
Description and number of financial derivatives maturing during the quarter, any closed positions and, if applicable, number and amount of margin calls experienced during the quarter. Disclosure as to any default under the relevant contracts.
1.
During the relevant quarter, nor forwards or interest rate swaps expired.
During the relevant quarter there were no defaults or margin calls under financial derivative transactions

Quantitative information for disclosure

v.Quantitative Information. Attached hereto as "Table 1" is a summary of the financial derivative instruments purchased by Grupo Televisa, S.A.B, Empresas Cablevisión S.A.B. de C.V., and Televisión Internacional, S.A. de C.V., whose aggregate fair value represents or could represent one of the reference percentages set forth in Section III (v) of the Official Communication.
IV. SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS
Considering that the Company has entered into financial derivative transactions for hedging purposes and given the low amount of the financial derivative instruments that proved ineffective as a hedge, the Company has determined that such transactions are not material and, accordingly, the sensitivity analysis referred to in Section IV of the Official Communication is not applicable.
In those cases where the derivative instruments of the Company are for hedging purposes, for a material amount and where the effectiveness measures were sufficient, the measures are justified when the standard deviation of the changes in cash flow as a result of changes in the variables of exchange rate and interest rates of the derivative instruments used jointly with the underlying position is lower than the standard deviation of the changes in cash flow of the underlying position valued in pesos and the effective measures are defined by the correlation coefficient between both positions for the effective measures to be sufficient.

Disclosure of notes and other explanatory information

See Notes 1 and 2 of the Disclosure of interim financial reporting.


Disclosure of general information about financial statements

Corporate Information

Grupo Televisa, S.A.B. (the "Company") is a limited liability public stock corporation ("Sociedad Anónima Bursátil" or "S.A.B."), incorporated under the laws of Mexico. Pursuant to the terms of the Company's bylaws ("Estatutos Sociales"), its corporate existence continues through 2106. The shares of the Company are listed and traded in the form of "Certificados de Participación Ordinarios" or "CPOs" on the Mexican Stock Exchange ("Bolsa Mexicana de Valores") under the ticker symbol TLEVISA CPO, and in the form of Global Depositary Shares or GDSs, on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, under the ticker symbol TV. The Company's principal executive offices are located at Avenida Vasco de Quiroga 2000, Colonia Santa Fe, 01210 Ciudad de México, México.

Basis of Preparation and Accounting Policies

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group, as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and for the ended years December 31, 2023 and 2022, are unaudited, and have been prepared in accordance with the guidelines provided by the International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included herein.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Group's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and include, among other disclosures, the Group's most significant accounting policies, which were applied on a consistent basis as of December 31, 2023.


Disclosure of significant accounting policies

Material Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies followed by the Group and used in the preparation of its annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023, and where applicable, of its condensed consolidated financial statements, are summarized below.

(a)Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Group as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, are presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS Accounting Standards"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the measurement at fair value of derivative financial instruments, financial assets, investments in equity financial instruments, plan assets of post-employment benefits and share-based payments, as described in the notes to the financial statements below.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS Accounting Standards, requires the use of certain accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. Changes in assumptions may have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements in the period the assumptions changed. Management believes that the underlying assumptions are appropriate. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where estimates and assumptions are material to the Group's financial statements are disclosed in Note 5 to these consolidated financial statements.



46 of 94

The consolidated statements of income of the Group for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, have been prepared to present the discontinued operations following the transaction between the Company and Televisaunivision announced on January 31, 2022 (the "TelevisaUnivision Transaction"). Accordingly, the consolidated statement of income of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2021, has been re-presented from that originally reported by the Company, to present in that period the results from discontinued operations for the businesses disposed of by the Group on January 31, 2022 (see Notes 3 and 28).

These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance on April 4, 2024, by the Group's Corporate Vice President of Finance, and will be submitted for approval to the Company's stockholders on April 26, 2024.

(b)Consolidation

The financial statements of the Group are prepared on a consolidated basis and include the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of all companies in which the Company has a controlling interest (subsidiaries). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated from the consolidated financial statements.
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Company has control. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The existence and effects of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether or not the Company controls another entity. The subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is obtained by the Company and cease to consolidate from the date on which said control is lost.

The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree, and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the recognized amounts of acquiree's identifiable net assets.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
Goodwill is initially measured as the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the fair value of non-controlling interest over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If this consideration is lower than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized in income or loss.
Changes in Ownership Interests in Subsidiaries without Change of Control

Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions that is, as transactions with the owners in their capacity as owners. The difference between fair value of any consideration paid and the interest acquired of the carrying amount of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals of non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity.
Loss of Control of a Subsidiary

When the Company ceases to have control of a subsidiary, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, with the change in carrying amount recognized in income or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This means that amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to income or loss except for certain equity financial instruments designated irrevocably with changes in other comprehensive income or loss.

Discontinued Operations

A discontinued operation is a component of the Group that either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale, for which its operations and cash flows can be clearly distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the Group and represents a separate major line of business or operations.

Classification as a discontinued operation occurs at the earlier of disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale.

When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative consolidated statements of income are re-presented as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative period.

See Note 26 for a description of each of the Group's business segments. Most of the Group's operations of its Other Businesses segment were discontinued following the spin-off of certain businesses that were part of the Group´s Other Businesses segment on January 31, 2024 (the "Spin-off"), to create a new controlling entity listed in the Mexican Stock Exchange (see Notes 3 and 29).
(3)
CVQ is a direct subsidiary of the Company and the parent company of Empresas Cablevisión, Cablemás, TVI, Bestel, Cablecom, Telecable, FTTH de México, and Sky. Bestel is an indirect majority-owned subsidiary of Empresas Cablevisión. FTTH de México was merged into Televisión Internacional S.A. de C.V., in the fourth quarter of 2023.
(4)

("Innova Holdings"). Sky is a satellite television provider in Mexico, Central America and the Dominican Republic. Although the Company holds a majority of Innova's equity and designates a majority of the members of Innova's Board of Directors, the non-controlling interest has certain governance and veto rights in Innova, including the right to block certain transactions between the companies in the Group and Sky. These veto rights are protective in nature and do not affect decisions about relevant business activities of Innova. (see Note 29)

(5)
Grupo Telesistema and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Multimedia Telecom, S.A. de C.V., Villacezán, S.A. de C.V., Comunicaciones Tieren, S.A. de C.V., and Corporativo TD Sports, S.A. de C.V., are the subsidiaries through which the Company owns shares of the capital stock of TelevisaUnivision, the parent company of Univision Communications Inc. ("Univision"), representing 49.7%, 43.8%, 3.7%, 2.1% and 0.7%, respectively, of the Group's aggregate investment in shares of common stock issued by TelevisaUnivision as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. Grupo Telesistema was the parent company of Club de Fútbol América, S.A. de C.V. and Fútbol del Distrito Federal, S.A. de C.V., which became direct subsidiaries of the Company in March 2023, in connection with the Spin-off (see Notes 3, 10, 20 and 29).

Concessions and Permits

The Group's Cable, Sky and Other Businesses segments, require governmental concessions and special authorizations for the provision of telecommunications and broadcasting services in Mexico. Such concessions are granted by the Mexican Institute of Telecommunications ("Instituto Federal de Telecomunicaciones" or "IFT") for a fixed term, subject to renewal in accordance with the Mexican Telecommunications and Broadcasting Law ("Ley Federal de Telecomunicaciones y Radiodifusión" or "LFTR").

Renewal of concessions for the Cable and Sky segments require, among others: (i) to request its renewal to IFT prior to the last fifth period of the fixed term of the related concession; (ii) to be in compliance with the concession holder's obligations under the LFTR, other applicable regulations, and the concession title; and (iii) the acceptance by the concession holder of any new conditions for renewing the concession as set forth by IFT. IFT shall resolve any request for renewal of the telecommunications concessions within 180 business days of its request. Failure to respond within such period of time shall be interpreted as if the request for renewal has been granted.

The Group holds a number of concessions by the Mexican government that authorizes it to broadcast programming over television stations for the signals of TelevisaUnivision. The payments made by the Group for these broadcasting concessions were accounted for as intangible assets in the Group's Content segment through January 31, 2022, and are accounted as intangible assets in the Group's Other Businesses segment after that date (see Notes 3, 13, 20 and 26).


48 of 94

Renewal of broadcasting concessions for the broadcast programming operations over television stations for the signals of TelevisaUnivision, requires, among others: (i) to request such renewal to IFT prior to the last fifth period of the fixed term of the related concession; (ii) to be in compliance with the concession holder's obligations under the LFTR, other applicable regulations, and the concession title; (iii) a declaration by IFT that there is no public interest in recovering the spectrum granted under the related concession; and (iv) the acceptance by the concession holder of any new conditions for renewing the concession as set forth by IFT, including the payment of a related fee. IFT shall resolve within the year following the presentation of the request, if there is public interest in recovering the spectrum granted under the related concession, in which case it will notify its determination and proceed with the termination of the concession at the end of its fixed term. If IFT determines that there is no public interest in recovering the spectrum, it will grant the requested extension within 180 business days, provided that the concessionaire accepts, in advance, the new conditions set by IFT, which will include the payment of the fee referred to above. Such fee will be determined by IFT for the relevant concessions, considering the following elements: (i) the frequency band; (ii) the amount of spectrum; (iii) coverage of the frequency band; (iv) domestic and international benchmark regarding the market value of frequency bands; and (v) upon request of IFT, an opinion issued by the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit of IFT´s proposal for calculation of the fee.

The regulations of the broadcasting and the telecommunications concessions (including satellite pay TV) establish that at the end of the concession, the frequency bands or spectrum attached to the services provided in the concessions shall return to the Mexican government. In addition, at the end of the concession, the Mexican government will have the preferential right to acquire infrastructure, equipment and other goods directly used in the provision of the concession. If the Mexican government were to exercise its right to acquire infrastructure, equipment and other goods, it would be required to pay a price that is equivalent to a formula that is similar to fair value. To the knowledge of the Company's management, no spectrum granted for broadcasting services in Mexico has been recovered by the Mexican government in at least the past three decades for public interest reasons. However, the Company's management is unable to predict the outcome of any action by IFT in this regard. In addition, these assets, by themselves, would not be enough to immediately begin broadcasting or offering satellite pay TV services or telecommunications services, as no content producing assets or other equipment necessary to operate the business would be included.
Also, the Group's Gaming business, which is reported in the Other Businesses segment, requires a permit granted by the Mexican Federal Government for a fixed term, in accordance with Mexican law (see Note 27). Additionally, the Group's Sky businesses in Central America and the Dominican Republic require concessions or permits granted by local regulatory authorities for a fixed term, subject to renewal in accordance with local laws.
The accounting guidelines provided by IFRIC 12 Service Concession Arrangements, are not applicable to the Group due primarily to the following factors: (i) the Mexican government does not substantially control the Group's infrastructure, what services are provided with the infrastructure and the price at which such services are offered; (ii) the Group's broadcasting service does not constitute a public service as per the definition in IFRIC 12; and (iii) the Group is unable to divide its infrastructure among the public (telephony and possibly Internet services) and non-public (pay TV) service components.

At December 31, 2023, the expiration dates of the Group's concessions and permits were as follows:
Segments
Expiration Dates
Cable
Various from 2026 to 2059
Sky
Various from 2025 to 2056
Other Businesses:
Broadcasting concessions (1)
In 2042 and 2052
Gaming

(1)
In November 2018, the IFT approved (i) 23 concessions for the use of spectrum that comprise the Group's 225 TV stations, for a term of 20 years, starting in January 2022 and ending in January 2042, and (ii) six concessions that grant the authorization to provide digital broadcasting television services of such 225 TV stations, for a term of 30 years, starting in January 2022 and ending in January 2052. In November 2018, the Group paid for the broadcasting concessions for the use of spectrum an aggregate amount of Ps.5,753,349 in cash and recognized this payment as an intangible asset in its consolidated statement of financial position. This amount is being amortized over a period of 20 years beginning on January 1, 2022, by using the straight-line method. These broadcasting concessions became part of the Group's Other Businesses segment after the TelevisaUnivision Transaction closed on January 31, 2022 (see Notes 3, 13, 20 and 26).
The concessions or permits held by the Group are not subject to any significant pricing regulations in the ordinary course of business.

(c)Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures

Associates are those entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control, over the financial and operating policies, generally those entities with a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the contractual rights and obligations of each investor. Joint ventures are those joint arrangements where the Group exercises joint control with one or more stockholders, without exercising control individually, and have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangements. Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognized at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the investor's share of the net assets of the investee after the date of acquisition. The investor's income or loss includes its share of the investee's income or loss and the investor's other comprehensive income includes its share of the investee's other comprehensive income.



49 of 94


The Group's investments in associates include an equity interest in TelevisaUnivision represented by 43.7% and 44.4% of the outstanding total common and preferred shares of TelevisaUnivision on an as-converted basis (excluding unvested and/or unsettled stock, restricted stock units and options of TelevisaUnivision) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively (see Notes 3 and 10).

If the Group's share of losses of an associate or a joint venture, equals or exceeds its interest in the investee, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. The interest in an associate or a joint venture is the carrying amount of the investment in the investee under the equity method together with any other long-term investment that, in substance, form part of the Group's net investment in the investee. After the Group's interest is reduced to zero, additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture.

Any gain or loss resulting from a downstream transaction involving assets that constitute a business, as defined in IFRS 3 Business Combinations, between the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) and its associate or joint venture is recognized in full in the Group's financial statements. The Group adopted this accounting policy in connection with the TelevisaUnivision Transaction closed on January 31, 2022 (see Note 3), and in accordance with the guidelines of Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 Sale orContribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture, and Effective Date of Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28, issued by the IASB.

(d)Segment Reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Group's Co-Chief Executive Officers ("chief operating decision makers"), who are responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance for each of the Group's operating segments.

(e)Foreign Currency Translation

Functional and Presentation Currency

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates ("functional currency"). The presentation and reporting currency of the Group's consolidated financial statements is the Mexican peso, which is used for compliance with its legal and tax obligations.

Transactions and Balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or measurement where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the statement of income as part of finance income or expense, except when recognized in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges.
Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in foreign currency classified as investments in financial instruments are analyzed between exchange differences resulting from changes in the amortized cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the security. Translation differences related to changes in amortized cost are recognized in income or loss, and other changes in carrying amount are recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.

Translation of Foreign Operations

The financial statements of the Group's foreign entities that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows: (a) assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of the statement of financial position; (b) income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); (c) stockholders' equity accounts are translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the time capital contributions were made and earnings were generated and (d) all resulting translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate. Translation differences arising are recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies of non-Mexican subsidiaries that use the Mexican Peso as a functional currency are initially converted to Mexican Pesos by utilizing the exchange rate of the statement of financial position date for monetary assets and liabilities, and historical exchange rates for non-monetary items, with the related adjustment included in the consolidated statement of income as finance income or expense.



50 of 94


A portion of the Group's outstanding principal amount of its U.S. dollar denominated long-term debt (hedging instrument, disclosed in the line item "Long-term debt, net of current portion" of the consolidated statement of financial position) has been designated as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation in connection with the Group's investment in shares of TelevisaUnivision (hedged item), which amounted to U.S.$2,499.7 million (Ps.42,326,344) and U.S.$2,538.8 million (Ps.49,446,349) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Consequently, any foreign exchange gain or loss attributable to this designated hedging long-term debt is credited or charged directly to other comprehensive income or loss as a cumulative result from foreign currency translation (see Notes 10, 14 and 18).
A portion of the Group's outstanding principal amount of its U.S. dollar denominated long-term debt (hedging instrument, disclosed in the line item "Long-term debt, net of current portion" of the consolidated statement of financial position) has been designated as a fair value hedge of foreign exchange exposure related to its investment in Open-Ended Fund (hedged item), which amounted to U.S.$39.8 million (Ps.674,451) and U.S.$39.7 million (Ps.773,209), as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Consequently, any foreign exchange gain or loss attributable to this designated hedging long-term debt is credited or charged directly to other comprehensive income or loss, along with the recognition in the same line item of any foreign currency gain or loss of this investment in Open-Ended Fund designated as a hedged item (see Notes 9, 14 and 18).

(f)Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition. Cash is stated at nominal value and cash equivalents are measured at fair value, and the changes in the fair value are recognized in the statement of income.

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, cash equivalents primarily consisted of fixed short-term deposits and corporate fixed income securities denominated in U.S. dollars and Mexican pesos, with an average yield of approximately 4.65% for U.S. dollar deposits and 11.09% for Mexican peso deposits in 2023, and approximately 1.53% for U.S. dollar deposits and 7.40% for Mexican peso deposits in 2022.

(g)Transmission Rights

The Group incurs costs related to the license of the rights to use content owned by third parties and sports rights on its owned pay television platforms, which are described as transmission rights in the Group's consolidated statement of financial position. The Group classifies transmission rights as current and non-current assets.

Transmission rights are valued at the lesser of acquisition cost and net realizable value.

Transmission rights are recognized from the point at which the legally enforceable license period begins. Until the license term commences and the transmission rights are available, payments made are recognized as prepayments. Cost of revenues is calculated and recorded for the month in which transmission rights are matched with related revenues.

Transmission rights are recognized in income on a straight-line basis over the lives of the contracts.

(h)Inventories

Inventories of paper, magazines, materials and supplies for maintenance of technical equipment are recorded at the lower of cost or its net realizable value. The net realization value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, less estimated costs to conduct the sale. Cost is determined using the average cost method.

(i)Financial Assets

The Group classifies its financial assets in accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments ("IFRS 9"). Under the guidelines of IFRS 9, the Group classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or loss ("FVOCIL"), or fair value through income or loss ("FVIL"), based on the Company's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cash flows characteristics of the financial asset.

Financial Assets Measured at Amortized Cost

Financial assets are measured at amortized cost when the objective of holding such financial assets is to collect contractual cash flows, and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are only payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. These financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, with changes in carrying amount recognized in the consolidated statement of income in the line which most appropriately reflects the nature of the item or transaction. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period that are included in non-current assets. The Group's financial assets measured at amortized costs are primarily presented as "trade accounts receivable", "other accounts receivable", and "due from related parties" in the consolidated statement of financial position (see Note 7).

51 of 94


Financial Assets Measured at FVOCIL

Financial assets are measured at FVOCIL when the objective of holding such financial assets is both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

The Group's investments in certain equity instruments have been designated to be measured at FVOCIL, as permitted by IFRS 9. In connection with this designation, any amounts presented in consolidated other comprehensive income are not subsequently transferred to consolidated income. Dividends from these equity instruments are recognized in consolidated income when the right to receive payment of the dividend is established, and such dividend is probable to be paid to the Group.

Financial Assets at FVIL

Financial assets at FVIL are financial assets held for trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives are also categorized as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current assets if expected to be settled within 12 months, otherwise they are classified as non-current.

Impairment of Financial Assets

The Group assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its financial assets carried at FVOCIL. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

For trade accounts receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognized from initial recognition of the trade accounts receivables (see Note 7).

Offsetting of Financial Instruments

Financial assets are offset against financial liabilities and the net amount reported in the consolidated statement of financial position if, and only when the Group: (i) currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts; and (ii) intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liability simultaneously.

(j)Property, Plant and Equipment, and Investment Property

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at acquisition cost.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to income or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.

The costs of dismantling items of property, plant and equipment are recognized at the fair value of related dismantling obligations. These dismantling obligations are primarily related to the use of the Group's Cable segment networks during a particular period and presented as part of other long-term liabilities in the Group's consolidated statements of financial position. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the present value of the Group's dismantling obligations amounted to Ps.1,133,379 and Ps.1,129,184, respectively.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is based upon the carrying amount of the assets in use and is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the asset, as follows:
Estimated
Useful Lives
Buildings
20-50 years
Technical equipment
3-30 years
Satellite transponders
15 years
Furniture and fixtures
10-15 years
Transportation equipment
4-8 years
Computer equipment
3-6 years
Leasehold improvements
5-30 years

The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.




52 of 94


An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is higher than its estimated recoverable amount.

Gains and losses on disposals of assets are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognized within other income or expense in the consolidated statement of income.

If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are classified as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Investment Property

Beginning on February 1, 2022, the Group has investment property. Investment property is property of the Group (land or a building or part of a building or both) held by a lessee as a right-of-use asset, to earn rentals rather than for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes, or sale in the ordinary course of business.

Depreciation of investment property is based upon the carrying amount of the assets in use and is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the asset, as follows:

Estimated
Useful Lives
Buildings
20-65 years

The Group's investment property is measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

(k)Lease Agreements

As a lessee, the Group recognizes a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset in a lease agreement, and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments.

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following: the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs and restoration costs.

Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. If the Group is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the underlying asset's useful life.

Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and vehicles and mostly leases of low-value assets are recognized on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less.

The Group recognizes a depreciation of rights-of-use assets for long-term lease agreements, and a finance expense for interest from related lease liabilities.

The Group leases its investment property consisting of certain owned building and land property (see Note 11). These lease agreements are classified as operating leases from a lessor perspective.

(l)Intangible Assets and Goodwill

Intangible assets and goodwill are recognized at acquisition cost. Intangible assets and goodwill acquired through business combinations are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, which include, trademarks, concessions, and goodwill, are not amortized, and subsequently recognized at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
Estimated
Useful Lives
Trademarks with finite useful lives
4 years
Licenses
3-10 years
Subscriber lists
4-5 years
Payments for renewal of concessions
20 years
Other intangible assets
3-20 years



53 of 94


Trademarks

The Group determines its acquired trademarks to have an indefinite life when they are expected to generate net cash inflows for the Group indefinitely. Additionally, the Group considers that there are no legal, regulatory or contractual provisions that limit the useful lives of trademarks. The Group has not capitalized any amounts associated with internally developed trademarks.
Concessions

The Group defined concessions to have an indefinite useful life due to the fact that the Group has a history of renewing its concessions upon expiration, has maintained the concessions granted by the Mexican government, and has no foreseeable limit to the period over which the assets are expected to generate net cash inflows. In addition, the Group is committed to continue to invest for the long term to extend the period over which the broadcasting and telecommunications concessions are expected to continue to provide economic benefits. These concessions are not amortized, but instead are subject to impairment testing at least annually. The useful life of concessions that is not being amortized is reviewed in each annual reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life for these concessions. Historically, the Group has renewed its telecommunications' concessions upon expiration and generally all condition necessary to obtain renewal have been satisfied and the cost to renew these concessions has not been significant.
Any fees paid by the Group to regulatory authorities for concessions renewed are determined to have finite useful lives and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the fixed term of the related concession.

Goodwill

Goodwill arises on the acquisition of a business and represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the Group's interest in net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree and the fair value of the non-controlling interest in the acquiree.
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the cash generating units ("CGUs"), or groups of CGUs, that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Each unit or group of units to which the goodwill is allocated represents the lowest level within the entity at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.
Goodwill impairment reviews are undertaken annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The carrying amount of goodwill is compared to the recoverable amount, which is the higher of the value in use and the fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment of goodwill is recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of income and is not subject to be reversed in subsequent periods.

(m)Impairment of Long-lived Assets

The Group reviews for impairment the carrying amounts of its long-lived assets, tangible and intangible (see Note 13), whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that these carrying amounts may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use. To determine whether an impairment exists, the carrying amount of the reporting unit is compared with its recoverable amount. Fair value estimates are based on quoted market values in active markets, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, the estimate of fair value is based on various valuation techniques, including discounted value of estimated future cash flows, market multiples or third-party appraisal valuations. Any impairment of long-lived assets other than goodwill may be subsequently reversed under certain circumstances.

(n)Trade Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses

Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses are presented as a single item of consolidated current liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.





54 of 94



(o)Debt

Debt is recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Debt is subsequently carried at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in the consolidated statement of income over the period in which the debt is outstanding using the effective interest method.

Fees paid on the establishment of debt facilities are recognized as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalized as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortized over the period of the facility to which it relates. The fee is deducted from the amount of the financial liability when it is initially recognized, or recognized in the consolidated statement of income when the issue is no longer expected to be completed.

Current portion of long-term debt and interest payable are presented as a separate line item in the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Debt early redemption costs are recognized as finance expense in the consolidated statement of income.

(p)Customer Advances

Customer advance agreements are contract liabilities presented by the Group in the consolidated statement of financial position. The Group recognizes a contract liability when a customer pays consideration, or the Group has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional, before the Group transfers services or goods to the customer. A contract liability is a Group's obligation to transfer services or goods to a customer for which the Group has received consideration, or an amount of consideration is due, from the customer. In addition, the Group recognizes contract assets upon the approval of non-cancellable contracts that generate an unconditional right to receive cash consideration prior to services being rendered. The Company's management has consistently recognized that an amount of consideration is due, for legal, finance and accounting purposes, when a short-term non-interest bearing note is received from a customer in connection with an advance agreement entered into with the customer for services or goods to be provided by the Group in the short term.

(q)Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.

Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provisions due to passage of time is recognized as interest expense.

(r)Equity

The capital stock and other equity accounts include the effect of restatement through December 31, 1997, determined by applying the change in the Mexican National Consumer Price Index between the dates capital was contributed or net results were generated and December 31, 1997, the date through which the Mexican economy was considered hyperinflationary under the guidelines of IFRS Accounting Standards. The restatement represented the amount required to maintain the contributions and accumulated results in Mexican Pesos in purchasing power as of December 31, 1997.
Where any company in the Group purchases shares of the Company's capital stock (shares repurchased), the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs is deducted from equity attributable to stockholders of the Company until the shares are cancelled, reissued, or sold. Where such shares repurchased are subsequently reissued or sold, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs, is included in equity attributable to stockholders of the Company.

(s)Revenue Recognition and Contract Costs

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for services provided. The Group recognizes revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured; when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity; and when specific criteria have been met for each of the Group's activities, as described below. The Group bases its estimate of return on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.






55 of 94


The Group derives the majority of its revenues from telecommunications-related business activities, primarily from its Cable and Sky segment operations (see Notes 3 and 26). Revenues are recognized when the service is provided, and collection is probable. A summary of revenue recognition policies by significant activity is as follows:

•
Cable television, internet and telephone subscription, and pay-per-view and installation fees are recognized in the period in which the services are rendered.

•
Revenues from other telecommunications and data services are recognized in the period in which these services are provided. Other telecommunications services include long distance and local telephony, as well as leasing and maintenance of telecommunications facilities.

•
In respect of revenues from multiple products or services, the Group evaluates whether it has fair value evidence for each deliverable in the transaction. The Group sells cable television, internet, and telephone subscription to subscribers in a bundled package at a rate lower than if the subscriber purchases each product on an individual basis. Subscription revenues received from such subscribers are allocated to each product in a pro-rata manner based on the fair value of each of the respective services.

•
Sky program service revenues, including advances from customers for future direct-to-home ("DTH") program services, are recognized at the time the service is provided.

•
Revenues from magazine subscriptions are initially deferred and recognized proportionately as products are delivered to subscribers. Revenues from the sales of magazines are recognized on the date of circulation of delivered merchandise, net of a provision for estimated returns (see Notes 3 and 26).

•
Revenues from publishing distribution are recognized upon distribution of the products (see Notes 3 and 26).

•
Revenues from attendance to soccer games, including revenues from advance ticket sales for soccer games and other promotional events, are recognized on the date of the relevant event (see Notes 3 and 26).

•
Gaming revenues consist of the net win from gaming activities, which is the difference between amounts wagered and amounts paid to winning patrons and are recognized at the time of such net win (see Notes 3 and 26).

Contract Costs

Incremental costs for obtaining contracts with customers in the Cable and Sky segments, primarily commissions, are recognized as contract costs (assets) in the Group's consolidated statement of financial position and amortized in the expected life of contracts with customers.

The Group has recognized assets from incremental costs of obtaining contracts with customers, primarily commissions, which were classified as current and non-current assets in its consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, as follows:

Amortization of contract costs is based upon the carrying amount of the assets in use and is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives that range between 1.5 and 5 years.

(t)Interest Income

Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. When a loan and receivable is impaired, the Group reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of the instrument and continues unwinding the discount as interest income. Interest income on impaired loans and receivables is recognized using the original effective interest rate.

(u)Employee Benefits
Pension and Seniority Premium Obligations

Plans exist for pensions and seniority premiums (post-employment benefits), for most of the Group's employees funded through irrevocable trusts. Increases or decreases in the consolidated liability or asset for post-employment benefits are based upon actuarial calculations. Contributions to the trusts are determined in accordance with actuarial estimates of funding requirements. Payments of post-employment benefits are made by the trust administrators. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using interest rates of government bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension obligation.
Remeasurement of post-employment benefit obligations related to experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions of post- employment benefits are recognized in the period in which they are incurred as part of other comprehensive income or loss in consolidated equity.

Profit Sharing

The employees' profit sharing required to be paid under certain circumstances in Mexico, is recognized as a direct benefit to employees in the consolidated statements of income in the period in which it is incurred. The profit sharing is paid to employees on a yearly basis and calculated by the Mexican companies in the Group at the statutory rate of 10% on their respective adjusted income in accordance with the Federal Labor Law. Beginning in 2021, there is a cap on the payment of profit sharing of up to three months of salary per employee (see Note 24).
Termination Benefits

Termination benefits, which mainly represent severance payments by law, are recorded in the consolidated statement of income. The Group recognizes termination benefits at the earlier of the following dates: (a) when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits; and (b) when the entity recognizes costs for a restructuring plan that involves the payment of termination benefits.

(v)Income Taxes

The income tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred income tax. Income tax is recognized in the consolidated statement of income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the income tax is recognized in other comprehensive income.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns and establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

Deferred income tax is recognized, using the balance sheet liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements of the consolidated companies in the Group. However, deferred income tax liabilities are not recognized if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill; deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction (other than in a business combination) that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable income or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is recovered or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences and tax loss carryforwards can be utilized. For this purpose, the Group takes into consideration all available positive and negative evidence, including factors such as market conditions, industry analysis, projected taxable income, carryforward periods, current tax structure, potential changes or adjustments in tax structure, and future reversals of existing temporary differences.



57 of 94


Deferred income tax liabilities are provided on taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, except for deferred income tax liabilities where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred income tax assets are provided on deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable income against which to utilize the benefit of the temporary difference and it is expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.

(w)Derivative Financial Instruments

The Group recognizes derivative financial instruments as either assets or liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial position and measures such instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative financial instrument depends on the intended use of the derivative financial instrument and the resulting designation. For a derivative financial instrument designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of such derivative's gain or loss is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income or loss and subsequently reclassified into income when the hedged exposure affects income. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is reported in income immediately. For a derivative financial instrument designated as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change together with the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributed to the risk being hedged. When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument that has been recognized in other comprehensive income remains in equity until the forecast transaction occurs. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately reclassified to income or loss. For derivative financial instruments that are not designated as accounting hedges, changes in fair value are recognized in income in the period of change. During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, certain derivative financial instruments qualified for hedge accounting (see Note 15).

(x)Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income for the period includes the net income for the period presented in the consolidated statement of income plus other comprehensive income for the period reflected in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

(y)Share-based Payment Agreements

Key officers and employees of certain subsidiaries of the Company have entered into agreements for the conditional sale of Company's shares under the Company's Long-Term Retention Plan ("LTRP"). The share-based compensation expense is measured at fair value at the date the equity benefits are conditionally sold to these officers and employees and recognized as a charge to consolidated income (administrative expense) over the vesting period. The Group recognized a share-based compensation expense of Ps.748,500, Ps.968,628 and Ps.903,764 for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively, of which Ps.748,500, Ps.968,628 and Ps.1,066,863 was credited in consolidated stockholders' equity for each of those years, respectively (see Note 17).

(z)New and Amended IFRS Accounting Standards

The Group adopted some amendments and improvements to certain IFRS Accounting Standards that became effective in 2023, 2022 and 2021, which did not have any significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

Below is a list of the new and amended IFRS Accounting Standards that have been issued by the IASB and are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2023, 2024, and 2025.

58 of 94


Amendments to IAS 12 International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model Rules, were issued by the IASB in May 2023, to give companies temporary relief from accounting for deferred taxes arising from the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development's ("OECD") international tax reform. The OECD published the Pillar Two Model Rules in December 2021 to ensure that large multinational companies would be subject to a minimum 15% tax rate. More than 135 countries and jurisdictions representing more than 90% of global GDP have agreed to the Pillar Two Model Rules. These amendments introduce (i) a temporary exception to the accounting for deferred taxes arising from jurisdictions implementing the global tax rules. This will help to ensure consistency in the financial statements while easing into the implementation of the rules; and (ii) targeted disclosure requirements to help investors better understand a company's exposure to income taxes arising from the reform, particularly before legislation implementing the rules is in effect. Companies can benefit from the temporary exception immediately but are required to provide the disclosures to investors for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. As permitted by these amendments, beginning in the year ended December 31, 2023, the Group applied the exception to recognizing and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes arising from Pilar Two Model Rules, and provided the required disclosures to help users of financial statements understand the Group's exposure to Pilar Two Model Rules (see Note 24).

Amendments to IFRS 16 Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback, were issued by the IASB in September 2022, and add to requirements in IFRS 16 Leases ("IFRS 16") explaining how a company accounts for a sale and leaseback after the date of the transaction. A sale and leaseback is a transaction for which a company sells an asset and leases the same asset back for a period of time from the new owner. IFRS 16 includes requirements on how to account for a sale and leaseback at the date the transaction takes place. However, IFRS 16 had not specified how to measure the transaction when reporting after that date. The amendments issued add to the sale and leaseback requirements in IFRS 16, thereby supporting the consistent application of the IFRS Standard. These amendments will not change the accounting for leases other than those arising in a sale and leaseback transaction. These amendments to IFRS 16 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, with early application permitted.

Amendments to IAS 1 Non-current Liabilities with Covenants, were issued by the IASB in October 2022, to improve the information companies provide about long-term with covenants. IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements requires a company to classify debt as non-current only if the company can avoid settling the debt in the 12 months after the reporting date. However, a company's ability to do so is often subject to complying with covenants. For example, a company might have long-term debt that could become repayable within 12 months if the company fails to comply with covenants in that 12-month period. The amendments to IAS 1 specify that covenants to be complied with after the reporting date do not affect the classification of debt as current or non-current at the reporting date. Instead, the amendments require a company to disclose information about these covenants in the notes to the financial statements. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, with early adoption permitted.

Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 Supplier Finance Arrangements, were issued by the IASB in May 2023, to require an entity to provide additional disclosures about its supplier finance arrangements. The new requirements were developed by the IASB to provide users of financial statements with information to enable them: (a) to assess how supplier finance arrangements affect an entity's liabilities and cash flows; and (b) to understand the effect of supplier finance arrangements on an entity's exposure to liquidity risk and how the entity might be affected if the arrangements were no longer available to it. The amendments supplement requirements already in IFRS Standards and require a company to disclose: (i) the terms and conditions; (ii) the amount of the liabilities that are part of the arrangements, breaking out the amounts for which the suppliers have already received payment from the finance providers, and stating where the liabilities sit on the balance sheet; (iii) ranges of payment due dates; and (iv) liquidity risk information. The amendments, which affect IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures, will become effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, with early application permitted.

Amendments to IAS 21 Lack of Exchangeability, were issued by the IASB in August 2023, to require companies to provide more useful information in their financial statements when a currency cannot be exchanged into another currency. These amendments will require companies to apply a consistent approach in assessing whether a currency can be exchanged into another currency and, when it cannot, in determining the exchange rate to use and the disclosures to provide. The amendments, which affect IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, will become effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025, with early application permitted.

Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture, were issued by the IASB in September 2014, and addressed and acknowledged an inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and those in IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures, in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. The main consequence of the amendments is that a full gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involves a business (whether it is housed in a subsidiary or not). A partial gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involves assets that do not constitute a business, even if these assets are housed in a subsidiary. In December 2015, the IASB decided to postpone the effective date of these amendments indefinitely. Entities are required to apply these amendments prospectively to the sale or contribution of assets occurring in annual periods beginning on or after a date to be determined by the IASB. Earlier application is permitted. If an entity applies these amendments earlier, it shall disclose that fact. These amendments became applicable to the Group's consolidated financial statements in connection with the closing of the TelevisaUnivision Transaction in the first quarter of 2022 (see Note 3). As permitted, the Group has applied these amendments in 2022 and disclosed this fact in its consolidated financial statements.

[800600] Notes - List of accounting policies


Disclosure of significant accounting policies
Material Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies followed by the Group and used in the preparation of its annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023, and where applicable, of its condensed consolidated financial statements, are summarized below.

(a)Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Group as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, are presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS Accounting Standards"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the measurement at fair value of derivative financial instruments, financial assets, investments in equity financial instruments, plan assets of post-employment benefits and share-based payments, as described in the notes to the financial statements below.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS Accounting Standards, requires the use of certain accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. Changes in assumptions may have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements in the period the assumptions changed. Management believes that the underlying assumptions are appropriate. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where estimates and assumptions are material to the Group's financial statements are disclosed in Note 5 to these consolidated financial statements.

The consolidated statements of income of the Group for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, have been prepared to present the discontinued operations following the transaction between the Company and Televisaunivision announced on January 31, 2022 (the "TelevisaUnivision Transaction"). Accordingly, the consolidated statement of income of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2021, has been re-presented from that originally reported by the Company, to present in that period the results from discontinued operations for the businesses disposed of by the Group on January 31, 2022 (see Notes 3 and 28).

These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance on April 4, 2024, by the Group's Corporate Vice President of Finance, and will be submitted for approval to the Company's stockholders on April 26, 2024.

(b)Consolidation

The financial statements of the Group are prepared on a consolidated basis and include the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of all companies in which the Company has a controlling interest (subsidiaries). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated from the consolidated financial statements.
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Company has control. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The existence and effects of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether or not the Company controls another entity. The subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is obtained by the Company and cease to consolidate from the date on which said control is lost.

The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree, and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the recognized amounts of acquiree's identifiable net assets.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
Goodwill is initially measured as the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the fair value of non-controlling interest over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If this consideration is lower than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized in income or loss.




60 of 94

Changes in Ownership Interests in Subsidiaries without Change of Control

Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions that is, as transactions with the owners in their capacity as owners. The difference between fair value of any consideration paid and the interest acquired of the carrying amount of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals of non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity.
Loss of Control of a Subsidiary

When the Company ceases to have control of a subsidiary, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, with the change in carrying amount recognized in income or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This means that amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to income or loss except for certain equity financial instruments designated irrevocably with changes in other comprehensive income or loss.

Discontinued Operations

A discontinued operation is a component of the Group that either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale, for which its operations and cash flows can be clearly distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the Group and represents a separate major line of business or operations.

Classification as a discontinued operation occurs at the earlier of disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale.

When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative consolidated statements of income are re-presented as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative period.

Subsidiaries of the Company
At December 31, 2023 and 2022, the main direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company were as follows:

Most of the Group's operations of its Other Businesses segment were discontinued following the spin-off of certain businesses that were part of the Group´s Other Businesses segment on January 31, 2024 (the "Spin-off"), to create a new controlling entity listed in the Mexican Stock Exchange (see Notes 3 and 29).
(3)
CVQ is a direct subsidiary of the Company and the parent company of Empresas Cablevisión, Cablemás, TVI, Bestel, Cablecom, Telecable, FTTH de México, and Sky. Bestel is an indirect majority-owned subsidiary of Empresas Cablevisión. FTTH de México was merged into Televisión Internacional S.A. de C.V., in the fourth quarter of 2023.
(4)
Innova is an indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Company, CVQ and Sky DTH, S.A. de C.V. ("Sky DTH"), and a direct majority-owned subsidiary of Innova Holdings, S. de R.L. de C.V. ("Innova Holdings"). Sky is a satellite television provider in Mexico, Central America and the Dominican Republic. Although the Company holds a majority of Innova's equity and designates a majority of the members of Innova's Board of Directors, the non-controlling interest has certain governance and veto rights in Innova, including the right to block certain transactions between the companies in the Group and Sky. These veto rights are protective in nature and do not affect decisions about relevant business activities of Innova. (see Note 29)




61 of 94

(5)
Grupo Telesistema and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Multimedia Telecom, S.A. de C.V., Villacezán, S.A. de C.V., Comunicaciones Tieren, S.A. de C.V., and Corporativo TD Sports, S.A. de C.V., are the subsidiaries through which the Company owns shares of the capital stock of TelevisaUnivision, the parent company of Univision Communications Inc. ("Univision"), representing 49.7%, 43.8%, 3.7%, 2.1% and 0.7%, respectively, of the Group's aggregate investment in shares of common stock issued by TelevisaUnivision as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. Grupo Telesistema was the parent company of Club de Fútbol América, S.A. de C.V. and Fútbol del Distrito Federal, S.A. de C.V., which became direct subsidiaries of the Company in March 2023, in connection with the Spin-off (see Notes 3, 10, 20 and 29).


Concessions and Permits

The Group's Cable, Sky and Other Businesses segments, require governmental concessions and special authorizations for the provision of telecommunications and broadcasting services in Mexico. Such concessions are granted by the Mexican Institute of Telecommunications ("Instituto Federal de Telecomunicaciones" or "IFT") for a fixed term, subject to renewal in accordance with the Mexican Telecommunications and Broadcasting Law ("Ley Federal de Telecomunicaciones y Radiodifusión" or "LFTR").

Renewal of concessions for the Cable and Sky segments require, among others: (i) to request its renewal to IFT prior to the last fifth period of the fixed term of the related concession; (ii) to be in compliance with the concession holder's obligations under the LFTR, other applicable regulations, and the concession title; and (iii) the acceptance by the concession holder of any new conditions for renewing the concession as set forth by IFT. IFT shall resolve any request for renewal of the telecommunications concessions within 180 business days of its request. Failure to respond within such period of time shall be interpreted as if the request for renewal has been granted.

The Group holds a number of concessions by the Mexican government that authorizes it to broadcast programming over television stations for the signals of TelevisaUnivision. The payments made by the Group for these broadcasting concessions were accounted for as intangible assets in the Group's Content segment through January 31, 2022, and are accounted as intangible assets in the Group's Other Businesses segment after that date (see Notes 3, 13, 20 and 26).

Renewal of broadcasting concessions for the broadcast programming operations over television stations for the signals of TelevisaUnivision, requires, among others: (i) to request such renewal to IFT prior to the last fifth period of the fixed term of the related concession; (ii) to be in compliance with the concession holder's obligations under the LFTR, other applicable regulations, and the concession title; (iii) a declaration by IFT that there is no public interest in recovering the spectrum granted under the related concession; and (iv) the acceptance by the concession holder of any new conditions for renewing the concession as set forth by IFT, including the payment of a related fee. IFT shall resolve within the year following the presentation of the request, if there is public interest in recovering the spectrum granted under the related concession, in which case it will notify its determination and proceed with the termination of the concession at the end of its fixed term. If IFT determines that there is no public interest in recovering the spectrum, it will grant the requested extension within 180 business days, provided that the concessionaire accepts, in advance, the new conditions set by IFT, which will include the payment of the fee referred to above. Such fee will be determined by IFT for the relevant concessions, considering the following elements: (i) the frequency band; (ii) the amount of spectrum; (iii) coverage of the frequency band; (iv) domestic and international benchmark regarding the market value of frequency bands; and (v) upon request of IFT, an opinion issued by the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit of IFT´s proposal for calculation of the fee.

The regulations of the broadcasting and the telecommunications concessions (including satellite pay TV) establish that at the end of the concession, the frequency bands or spectrum attached to the services provided in the concessions shall return to the Mexican government. In addition, at the end of the concession, the Mexican government will have the preferential right to acquire infrastructure, equipment and other goods directly used in the provision of the concession. If the Mexican government were to exercise its right to acquire infrastructure, equipment and other goods, it would be required to pay a price that is equivalent to a formula that is similar to fair value. To the knowledge of the Company's management, no spectrum granted for broadcasting services in Mexico has been recovered by the Mexican government in at least the past three decades for public interest reasons. However, the Company's management is unable to predict the outcome of any action by IFT in this regard. In addition, these assets, by themselves, would not be enough to immediately begin broadcasting or offering satellite pay TV services or telecommunications services, as no content producing assets or other equipment necessary to operate the business would be included.
Also, the Group's Gaming business, which is reported in the Other Businesses segment, requires a permit granted by the Mexican Federal Government for a fixed term, in accordance with Mexican law (see Note 27). Additionally, the Group's Sky businesses in Central America and the Dominican Republic require concessions or permits granted by local regulatory authorities for a fixed term, subject to renewal in accordance with local laws.
The accounting guidelines provided by IFRIC 12 Service Concession Arrangements, are not applicable to the Group due primarily to the following factors: (i) the Mexican government does not substantially control the Group's infrastructure, what services are provided with the infrastructure and the price at which such services are offered; (ii) the Group's broadcasting service does not constitute a public service as per the definition in IFRIC 12; and (iii) the Group is unable to divide its infrastructure among the public (telephony and possibly Internet services) and non-public (pay TV) service components.

Various from 2026 to 2059
Sky
Various from 2025 to 2056
Other Businesses:
Broadcasting concessions (1)
In 2042 and 2052

(1)
In November 2018, the IFT approved (i) 23 concessions for the use of spectrum that comprise the Group's 225 TV stations, for a term of 20 years, starting in January 2022 and ending in January 2042, and (ii) six concessions that grant the authorization to provide digital broadcasting television services of such 225 TV stations, for a term of 30 years, starting in January 2022 and ending in January 2052. In November 2018, the Group paid for the broadcasting concessions for the use of spectrum an aggregate amount of Ps.5,753,349 in cash and recognized this payment as an intangible asset in its consolidated statement of financial position. This amount is being amortized over a period of 20 years beginning on January 1, 2022, by using the straight-line method. These broadcasting concessions became part of the Group's Other Businesses segment after the TelevisaUnivision Transaction closed on January 31, 2022 (see Notes 3, 13, 20 and 26).
The concessions or permits held by the Group are not subject to any significant pricing regulations in the ordinary course of business.

(c)Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures

Associates are those entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control, over the financial and operating policies, generally those entities with a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the contractual rights and obligations of each investor. Joint ventures are those joint arrangements where the Group exercises joint control with one or more stockholders, without exercising control individually, and have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangements. Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognized at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the investor's share of the net assets of the investee after the date of acquisition. The investor's income or loss includes its share of the investee's income or loss and the investor's other comprehensive income includes its share of the investee's other comprehensive income.
The Group's investments in associates include an equity interest in TelevisaUnivision represented by 43.7% and 44.4% of the outstanding total common and preferred shares of TelevisaUnivision on an as-converted basis (excluding unvested and/or unsettled stock, restricted stock units and options of TelevisaUnivision) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively (see Notes 3 and 10).

If the Group's share of losses of an associate or a joint venture, equals or exceeds its interest in the investee, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. The interest in an associate or a joint venture is the carrying amount of the investment in the investee under the equity method together with any other long-term investment that, in substance, form part of the Group's net investment in the investee. After the Group's interest is reduced to zero, additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture.

Any gain or loss resulting from a downstream transaction involving assets that constitute a business, as defined in IFRS 3 Business Combinations, between the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) and its associate or joint venture is recognized in full in the Group's financial statements. The Group adopted this accounting policy in connection with the TelevisaUnivision Transaction closed on January 31, 2022 (see Note 3), and in accordance with the guidelines of Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 Sale orContribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture, and Effective Date of Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28, issued by the IASB.

(d)Segment Reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Group's Co-Chief Executive Officers ("chief operating decision makers"), who are responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance for each of the Group's operating segments.

(e)Foreign Currency Translation

Functional and Presentation Currency

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates ("functional currency"). The presentation and reporting currency of the Group's consolidated financial statements is the Mexican peso, which is used for compliance with its legal and tax obligations.


63 of 94

Transactions and Balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or measurement where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the statement of income as part of finance income or expense, except when recognized in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges.
Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in foreign currency classified as investments in financial instruments are analyzed between exchange differences resulting from changes in the amortized cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the security. Translation differences related to changes in amortized cost are recognized in income or loss, and other changes in carrying amount are recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.

Translation of Foreign Operations

The financial statements of the Group's foreign entities that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows: (a) assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of the statement of financial position; (b) income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); (c) stockholders' equity accounts are translated at the prevailing exchange rate at the time capital contributions were made and earnings were generated and (d) all resulting translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate. Translation differences arising are recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies of non-Mexican subsidiaries that use the Mexican Peso as a functional currency are initially converted to Mexican Pesos by utilizing the exchange rate of the statement of financial position date for monetary assets and liabilities, and historical exchange rates for non-monetary items, with the related adjustment included in the consolidated statement of income as finance income or expense.
A portion of the Group's outstanding principal amount of its U.S. dollar denominated long-term debt (hedging instrument, disclosed in the line item "Long-term debt, net of current portion" of the consolidated statement of financial position) has been designated as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation in connection with the Group's investment in shares of TelevisaUnivision (hedged item), which amounted to U.S.$2,499.7 million (Ps.42,326,344) and U.S.$2,538.8 million (Ps.49,446,349) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Consequently, any foreign exchange gain or loss attributable to this designated hedging long-term debt is credited or charged directly to other comprehensive income or loss as a cumulative result from foreign currency translation (see Notes 10, 14 and 18).
A portion of the Group's outstanding principal amount of its U.S. dollar denominated long-term debt (hedging instrument, disclosed in the line item "Long-term debt, net of current portion" of the consolidated statement of financial position) has been designated as a fair value hedge of foreign exchange exposure related to its investment in Open-Ended Fund (hedged item), which amounted to U.S.$39.8 million (Ps.674,451) and U.S.$39.7 million (Ps.773,209), as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Consequently, any foreign exchange gain or loss attributable to this designated hedging long-term debt is credited or charged directly to other comprehensive income or loss, along with the recognition in the same line item of any foreign currency gain or loss of this investment in Open-Ended Fund designated as a hedged item (see Notes 9, 14 and 18).

(f)Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition. Cash is stated at nominal value and cash equivalents are measured at fair value, and the changes in the fair value are recognized in the statement of income.

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, cash equivalents primarily consisted of fixed short-term deposits and corporate fixed income securities denominated in U.S. dollars and Mexican pesos, with an average yield of approximately 4.65% for U.S. dollar deposits and 11.09% for Mexican peso deposits in 2023, and approximately 1.53% for U.S. dollar deposits and 7.40% for Mexican peso deposits in 2022.

(g)Transmission Rights

The Group incurs costs related to the license of the rights to use content owned by third parties and sports rights on its owned pay television platforms, which are described as transmission rights in the Group's consolidated statement of financial position. The Group classifies transmission rights as current and non-current assets.


64 of 94

Transmission rights are valued at the lesser of acquisition cost and net realizable value.

Transmission rights are recognized from the point at which the legally enforceable license period begins. Until the license term commences and the transmission rights are available, payments made are recognized as prepayments. Cost of revenues is calculated and recorded for the month in which transmission rights are matched with related revenues.

Transmission rights are recognized in income on a straight-line basis over the lives of the contracts.

(h)Inventories

Inventories of paper, magazines, materials and supplies for maintenance of technical equipment are recorded at the lower of cost or its net realizable value. The net realization value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, less estimated costs to conduct the sale. Cost is determined using the average cost method.

(i)Financial Assets

The Group classifies its financial assets in accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments ("IFRS 9"). Under the guidelines of IFRS 9, the Group classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or loss ("FVOCIL"), or fair value through income or loss ("FVIL"), based on the Company's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cash flows characteristics of the financial asset.

Financial Assets Measured at Amortized Cost

Financial assets are measured at amortized cost when the objective of holding such financial assets is to collect contractual cash flows, and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are only payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. These financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, with changes in carrying amount recognized in the consolidated statement of income in the line which most appropriately reflects the nature of the item or transaction. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period that are included in non-current assets. The Group's financial assets measured at amortized costs are primarily presented as "trade accounts receivable", "other accounts receivable", and "due from related parties" in the consolidated statement of financial position (see Note 7).
Financial Assets Measured at FVOCIL

Financial assets are measured at FVOCIL when the objective of holding such financial assets is both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

The Group's investments in certain equity instruments have been designated to be measured at FVOCIL, as permitted by IFRS 9. In connection with this designation, any amounts presented in consolidated other comprehensive income are not subsequently transferred to consolidated income. Dividends from these equity instruments are recognized in consolidated income when the right to receive payment of the dividend is established, and such dividend is probable to be paid to the Group.

Financial Assets at FVIL

Financial assets at FVIL are financial assets held for trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives are also categorized as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current assets if expected to be settled within 12 months, otherwise they are classified as non-current.

Impairment of Financial Assets

The Group assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its financial assets carried at FVOCIL. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

For trade accounts receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognized from initial recognition of the trade accounts receivables (see Note 7).

Offsetting of Financial Instruments

Financial assets are offset against financial liabilities and the net amount reported in the consolidated statement of financial position if, and only when the Group: (i) currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts; and (ii) intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liability simultaneously.




65 of 94


(j)Property, Plant and Equipment, and Investment Property

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at acquisition cost.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to income or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.

The costs of dismantling items of property, plant and equipment are recognized at the fair value of related dismantling obligations. These dismantling obligations are primarily related to the use of the Group's Cable segment networks during a particular period and presented as part of other long-term liabilities in the Group's consolidated statements of financial position. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the present value of the Group's dismantling obligations amounted to Ps.1,133,379 and Ps.1,129,184, respectively.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is based upon the carrying amount of the assets in use and is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the asset, as follows:

Estimated
Useful Lives
Buildings
20-50 years
Technical equipment
3-30 years
Satellite transponders
15 years
Furniture and fixtures
10-15 years
Transportation equipment
4-8 years
Computer equipment
3-6 years
Leasehold improvements
5-30 years


The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is higher than its estimated recoverable amount.

Gains and losses on disposals of assets are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognized within other income or expense in the consolidated statement of income.

If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are classified as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Investment Property

Beginning on February 1, 2022, the Group has investment property. Investment property is property of the Group (land or a building or part of a building or both) held by a lessee as a right-of-use asset, to earn rentals rather than for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes, or sale in the ordinary course of business.

Depreciation of investment property is based upon the carrying amount of the assets in use and is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the asset, as follows:

Estimated
Useful Lives
Buildings
20-65 years

The Group's investment property is measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

(k)Lease Agreements

As a lessee, the Group recognizes a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset in a lease agreement, and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments.

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following: the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs and restoration costs.

Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. If the Group is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the underlying asset's useful life.




66 of 94

Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and vehicles and mostly leases of low-value assets are recognized on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less.

The Group recognizes a depreciation of rights-of-use assets for long-term lease agreements, and a finance expense for interest from related lease liabilities.

The Group leases its investment property consisting of certain owned building and land property (see Note 11). These lease agreements are classified as operating leases from a lessor perspective.

(l)Intangible Assets and Goodwill

Intangible assets and goodwill are recognized at acquisition cost. Intangible assets and goodwill acquired through business combinations are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, which include, trademarks, concessions, and goodwill, are not amortized, and subsequently recognized at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
Estimated
Useful Lives
Trademarks with finite useful lives
4 years
Licenses
3-10 years
Subscriber lists
4-5 years
Payments for renewal of concessions
20 years
Other intangible assets
3-20 years

Trademarks

The Group determines its acquired trademarks to have an indefinite life when they are expected to generate net cash inflows for the Group indefinitely. Additionally, the Group considers that there are no legal, regulatory or contractual provisions that limit the useful lives of trademarks. The Group has not capitalized any amounts associated with internally developed trademarks.
Concessions

The Group defined concessions to have an indefinite useful life due to the fact that the Group has a history of renewing its concessions upon expiration, has maintained the concessions granted by the Mexican government, and has no foreseeable limit to the period over which the assets are expected to generate net cash inflows. In addition, the Group is committed to continue to invest for the long term to extend the period over which the broadcasting and telecommunications concessions are expected to continue to provide economic benefits. These concessions are not amortized, but instead are subject to impairment testing at least annually. The useful life of concessions that is not being amortized is reviewed in each annual reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life for these concessions. Historically, the Group has renewed its telecommunications' concessions upon expiration and generally all condition necessary to obtain renewal have been satisfied and the cost to renew these concessions has not been significant.
Any fees paid by the Group to regulatory authorities for concessions renewed are determined to have finite useful lives and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the fixed term of the related concession.

Goodwill

Goodwill arises on the acquisition of a business and represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the Group's interest in net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree and the fair value of the non-controlling interest in the acquiree.
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the cash generating units ("CGUs"), or groups of CGUs, that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Each unit or group of units to which the goodwill is allocated represents the lowest level within the entity at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.
Goodwill impairment reviews are undertaken annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The carrying amount of goodwill is compared to the recoverable amount, which is the higher of the value in use and the fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment of goodwill is recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of income and is not subject to be reversed in subsequent periods.




67 of 94

(m)Impairment of Long-lived Assets

The Group reviews for impairment the carrying amounts of its long-lived assets, tangible and intangible (see Note 13), whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that these carrying amounts may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use. To determine whether an impairment exists, the carrying amount of the reporting unit is compared with its recoverable amount. Fair value estimates are based on quoted market values in active markets, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, the estimate of fair value is based on various valuation techniques, including discounted value of estimated future cash flows, market multiples or third-party appraisal valuations. Any impairment of long-lived assets other than goodwill may be subsequently reversed under certain circumstances.

(n)Trade Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses

Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses are presented as a single item of consolidated current liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

(o)Debt

Debt is recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Debt is subsequently carried at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in the consolidated statement of income over the period in which the debt is outstanding using the effective interest method.

Fees paid on the establishment of debt facilities are recognized as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalized as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortized over the period of the facility to which it relates. The fee is deducted from the amount of the financial liability when it is initially recognized, or recognized in the consolidated statement of income when the issue is no longer expected to be completed.

Current portion of long-term debt and interest payable are presented as a separate line item in the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Debt early redemption costs are recognized as finance expense in the consolidated statement of income.

(p)Customer Advances

Customer advance agreements are contract liabilities presented by the Group in the consolidated statement of financial position. The Group recognizes a contract liability when a customer pays consideration, or the Group has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional, before the Group transfers services or goods to the customer. A contract liability is a Group's obligation to transfer services or goods to a customer for which the Group has received consideration, or an amount of consideration is due, from the customer. In addition, the Group recognizes contract assets upon the approval of non-cancellable contracts that generate an unconditional right to receive cash consideration prior to services being rendered. The Company's management has consistently recognized that an amount of consideration is due, for legal, finance and accounting purposes, when a short-term non-interest bearing note is received from a customer in connection with an advance agreement entered into with the customer for services or goods to be provided by the Group in the short term.

(q)Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.

Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provisions due to passage of time is recognized as interest expense.



68 of 94

(r)Equity

The capital stock and other equity accounts include the effect of restatement through December 31, 1997, determined by applying the change in the Mexican National Consumer Price Index between the dates capital was contributed or net results were generated and December 31, 1997, the date through which the Mexican economy was considered hyperinflationary under the guidelines of IFRS Accounting Standards. The restatement represented the amount required to maintain the contributions and accumulated results in Mexican Pesos in purchasing power as of December 31, 1997.
Where any company in the Group purchases shares of the Company's capital stock (shares repurchased), the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs is deducted from equity attributable to stockholders of the Company until the shares are cancelled, reissued, or sold. Where such shares repurchased are subsequently reissued or sold, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs, is included in equity attributable to stockholders of the Company.

(s)Revenue Recognition and Contract Costs

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for services provided. The Group recognizes revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured; when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity; and when specific criteria have been met for each of the Group's activities, as described below. The Group bases its estimate of return on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.

The Group derives the majority of its revenues from telecommunications-related business activities, primarily from its Cable and Sky segment operations (see Notes 3 and 26). Revenues are recognized when the service is provided, and collection is probable. A summary of revenue recognition policies by significant activity is as follows:

•
Cable television, internet and telephone subscription, and pay-per-view and installation fees are recognized in the period in which the services are rendered.

•
Revenues from other telecommunications and data services are recognized in the period in which these services are provided. Other telecommunications services include long distance and local telephony, as well as leasing and maintenance of telecommunications facilities.

•
In respect of revenues from multiple products or services, the Group evaluates whether it has fair value evidence for each deliverable in the transaction. The Group sells cable television, internet, and telephone subscription to subscribers in a bundled package at a rate lower than if the subscriber purchases each product on an individual basis. Subscription revenues received from such subscribers are allocated to each product in a pro-rata manner based on the fair value of each of the respective services.

•
Sky program service revenues, including advances from customers for future direct-to-home ("DTH") program services, are recognized at the time the service is provided.

•
Revenues from magazine subscriptions are initially deferred and recognized proportionately as products are delivered to subscribers. Revenues from the sales of magazines are recognized on the date of circulation of delivered merchandise, net of a provision for estimated returns (see Notes 3 and 26).

•
Revenues from publishing distribution are recognized upon distribution of the products (see Notes 3 and 26).

•
Revenues from attendance to soccer games, including revenues from advance ticket sales for soccer games and other promotional events, are recognized on the date of the relevant event (see Notes 3 and 26).

•
Gaming revenues consist of the net win from gaming activities, which is the difference between amounts wagered and amounts paid to winning patrons and are recognized at the time of such net win (see Notes 3 and 26).

Contract Costs

Incremental costs for obtaining contracts with customers in the Cable and Sky segments, primarily commissions, are recognized as contract costs (assets) in the Group's consolidated statement of financial position and amortized in the expected life of contracts with customers.


69 of 94


The Group has recognized assets from incremental costs of obtaining contracts with customers, primarily commissions, which were classified as current and non-current assets in its consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, as follows:

Amortization of contract costs is based upon the carrying amount of the assets in use and is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives that range between 1.5 and 5 years.

(t)Interest Income

Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. When a loan and receivable is impaired, the Group reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of the instrument and continues unwinding the discount as interest income. Interest income on impaired loans and receivables is recognized using the original effective interest rate.

(u)Employee Benefits
Pension and Seniority Premium Obligations

Plans exist for pensions and seniority premiums (post-employment benefits), for most of the Group's employees funded through irrevocable trusts. Increases or decreases in the consolidated liability or asset for post-employment benefits are based upon actuarial calculations. Contributions to the trusts are determined in accordance with actuarial estimates of funding requirements. Payments of post-employment benefits are made by the trust administrators. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using interest rates of government bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension obligation.
Remeasurement of post-employment benefit obligations related to experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions of post- employment benefits are recognized in the period in which they are incurred as part of other comprehensive income or loss in consolidated equity.

Profit Sharing

The employees' profit sharing required to be paid under certain circumstances in Mexico, is recognized as a direct benefit to employees in the consolidated statements of income in the period in which it is incurred. The profit sharing is paid to employees on a yearly basis and calculated by the Mexican companies in the Group at the statutory rate of 10% on their respective adjusted income in accordance with the Federal Labor Law. Beginning in 2021, there is a cap on the payment of profit sharing of up to three months of salary per employee (see Note 24).
Termination Benefits

Termination benefits, which mainly represent severance payments by law, are recorded in the consolidated statement of income. The Group recognizes termination benefits at the earlier of the following dates: (a) when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits; and (b) when the entity recognizes costs for a restructuring plan that involves the payment of termination benefits.



70 of 94

(v)Income Taxes

The income tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred income tax. Income tax is recognized in the consolidated statement of income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the income tax is recognized in other comprehensive income.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns and establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

Deferred income tax is recognized, using the balance sheet liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements of the consolidated companies in the Group. However, deferred income tax liabilities are not recognized if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill; deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction (other than in a business combination) that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable income or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is recovered or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences and tax loss carryforwards can be utilized. For this purpose, the Group takes into consideration all available positive and negative evidence, including factors such as market conditions, industry analysis, projected taxable income, carryforward periods, current tax structure, potential changes or adjustments in tax structure, and future reversals of existing temporary differences.

Deferred income tax liabilities are provided on taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, except for deferred income tax liabilities where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred income tax assets are provided on deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable income against which to utilize the benefit of the temporary difference and it is expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.

(w)Derivative Financial Instruments

The Group recognizes derivative financial instruments as either assets or liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial position and measures such instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative financial instrument depends on the intended use of the derivative financial instrument and the resulting designation. For a derivative financial instrument designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of such derivative's gain or loss is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income or loss and subsequently reclassified into income when the hedged exposure affects income. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is reported in income immediately. For a derivative financial instrument designated as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change together with the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributed to the risk being hedged. When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument that has been recognized in other comprehensive income remains in equity until the forecast transaction occurs. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately reclassified to income or loss. For derivative financial instruments that are not designated as accounting hedges, changes in fair value are recognized in income in the period of change. During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, certain derivative financial instruments qualified for hedge accounting (see Note 15).

(x)Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income for the period includes the net income for the period presented in the consolidated statement of income plus other comprehensive income for the period reflected in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

(y)Share-based Payment Agreements

Key officers and employees of certain subsidiaries of the Company have entered into agreements for the conditional sale of Company's shares under the Company's Long-Term Retention Plan ("LTRP"). The share-based compensation expense is measured at fair value at the date the equity benefits are conditionally sold to these officers and employees and recognized as a charge to consolidated income (administrative expense) over the vesting period. The Group recognized a share-based compensation expense of Ps.748,500, Ps.968,628 and Ps.903,764 for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively, of which Ps.748,500, Ps.968,628 and Ps.1,066,863 was credited in consolidated stockholders' equity for each of those years, respectively (see Note 17).

(1) This new or amended IFRS Accounting Standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

Amendments to IAS 12 International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model Rules, were issued by the IASB in May 2023, to give companies temporary relief from accounting for deferred taxes arising from the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development's ("OECD") international tax reform. The OECD published the Pillar Two Model Rules in December 2021 to ensure that large multinational companies would be subject to a minimum 15% tax rate. More than 135 countries and jurisdictions representing more than 90% of global GDP have agreed to the Pillar Two Model Rules. These amendments introduce (i) a temporary exception to the accounting for deferred taxes arising from jurisdictions implementing the global tax rules. This will help to ensure consistency in the financial statements while easing into the implementation of the rules; and (ii) targeted disclosure requirements to help investors better understand a company's exposure to income taxes arising from the reform, particularly before legislation implementing the rules is in effect. Companies can benefit from the temporary exception immediately but are required to provide the disclosures to investors for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. As permitted by these amendments, beginning in the year ended December 31, 2023, the Group applied the exception to recognizing and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes arising from Pilar Two Model Rules, and provided the required disclosures to help users of financial statements understand the Group's exposure to Pilar Two Model Rules (see Note 24).

Amendments to IFRS 16 Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback, were issued by the IASB in September 2022, and add to requirements in IFRS 16 Leases ("IFRS 16") explaining how a company accounts for a sale and leaseback after the date of the transaction. A sale and leaseback is a transaction for which a company sells an asset and leases the same asset back for a period of time from the new owner. IFRS 16 includes requirements on how to account for a sale and leaseback at the date the transaction takes place. However, IFRS 16 had not specified how to measure the transaction when reporting after that date. The amendments issued add to the sale and leaseback requirements in IFRS 16, thereby supporting the consistent application of the IFRS Standard. These amendments will not change the accounting for leases other than those arising in a sale and leaseback transaction. These amendments to IFRS 16 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, with early application permitted.

Amendments to IAS 1 Non-current Liabilities with Covenants, were issued by the IASB in October 2022, to improve the information companies provide about long-term with covenants. IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements requires a company to classify debt as non-current only if the company can avoid settling the debt in the 12 months after the reporting date. However, a company's ability to do so is often subject to complying with covenants. For example, a company might have long-term debt that could become repayable within 12 months if the company fails to comply with covenants in that 12-month period. The amendments to IAS 1 specify that covenants to be complied with after the reporting date do not affect the classification of debt as current or non-current at the reporting date. Instead, the amendments require a company to disclose information about these covenants in the notes to the financial statements. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, with early adoption permitted.

Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 Supplier Finance Arrangements, were issued by the IASB in May 2023, to require an entity to provide additional disclosures about its supplier finance arrangements. The new requirements were developed by the IASB to provide users of financial statements with information to enable them: (a) to assess how supplier finance arrangements affect an entity's liabilities and cash flows; and (b) to understand the effect of supplier finance arrangements on an entity's exposure to liquidity risk and how the entity might be affected if the arrangements were no longer available to it. The amendments supplement requirements already in IFRS Standards and require a company to disclose: (i) the terms and conditions; (ii) the amount of the liabilities that are part of the arrangements, breaking out the amounts for which the suppliers have already received payment from the finance providers, and stating where the liabilities sit on the balance sheet; (iii) ranges of payment due dates; and (iv) liquidity risk information. The amendments, which affect IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures, will become effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, with early application permitted.



72 of 94

Amendments to IAS 21 Lack of Exchangeability, were issued by the IASB in August 2023, to require companies to provide more useful information in their financial statements when a currency cannot be exchanged into another currency. These amendments will require companies to apply a consistent approach in assessing whether a currency can be exchanged into another currency and, when it cannot, in determining the exchange rate to use and the disclosures to provide. The amendments, which affect IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, will become effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025, with early application permitted.

Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture, were issued by the IASB in September 2014, and addressed and acknowledged an inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and those in IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures, in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. The main consequence of the amendments is that a full gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involves a business (whether it is housed in a subsidiary or not). A partial gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involves assets that do not constitute a business, even if these assets are housed in a subsidiary. In December 2015, the IASB decided to postpone the effective date of these amendments indefinitely. Entities are required to apply these amendments prospectively to the sale or contribution of assets occurring in annual periods beginning on or after a date to be determined by the IASB. Earlier application is permitted. If an entity applies these amendments earlier, it shall disclose that fact. These amendments became applicable to the Group's consolidated financial statements in connection with the closing of the TelevisaUnivision Transaction in the first quarter of 2022 (see Note 3). As permitted, the Group has applied these amendments in 2022 and disclosed this fact in its consolidated financial statements.

Basis of Preparation and Accounting Policies
These condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group, as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, are unaudited, and have been prepared in accordance with the guidelines provided by the International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included herein.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Group's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS Accounting Standards") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), and include, among other disclosures, the Group's most significant accounting policies, which were applied on a consistent basis as of December 31, 2023.

Disposition of OCEN, TelevisaUnivision Transaction and Spun-off Businesses
In the second quarter of 2022, Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. paid to the Company a purchase price adjustment of Ps.35,950 in connection with the sale of the Group's former 40% equity stake in OCESA Entretenimiento, S.A. de C.V. ("OCEN") in December 2021 (see Note 15).

On April 13, 2021, the Company and Univision Holdings, Inc. ("UHI") announced a transaction agreement (the "Transaction Agreement") in which the Group's content and media assets would be combined with Univision Holdings II, Inc. ("UH II," the successor company of UHI), and the Group would continue to participate in UH II, with an equity stake of approximately 45% following the closing of the transaction. The Group would also retain ownership of its Cable, Sky and Other Businesses segments, as well as the main real estate associated with the production facilities, the broadcasting concessions and transmission infrastructure in Mexico. The Group would contribute to UH II the net assets specified in the Transaction Agreement, including, subject to certain exceptions, its Content business, for a total value of U.S.$4,500 million, comprised of U.S.$3,000 million in cash, U.S.$750 million in common stock of UH II and U.S.$750 million in preferred stock of UH II, with an annual dividend of 5.5%. In connection with this transaction, UH II would receive all assets, intellectual property and library related to the News division of the Group's Content business but would outsource production of news content for Mexico to a company owned by the Azcárraga family. On January 31, 2022, the Group, TelevisaUnivision (formerly known as UH II) and other parties closed the TelevisaUnivision Transaction, and the Group recognized an income from disposition of discontinued operations in the aggregate amount of Ps.93,066,741 in its consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2022, comprising a consideration in cash received from TelevisaUnivision in the aggregate amount of U.S.$2,971.3 million (Ps.61,214,741), a consideration in common and preferred stock of TelevisaUnivision, in the aggregate amount of U.S.$1,500.0 million (Ps.30,912,000), and a cash consideration received from Tritón Comunicaciones, S.A. de C.V. ("Tritón") a company of the Azcárraga family, in the amount of Ps.940,000, related to the rights for the production of news content for Mexico. Also, in connection with the TelevisaUnivision Transaction, the Group (i) began to present and disclose the results of operations of its disposed businesses as discontinued operations in its consolidated statements of income for any comparative prior period and for the month ended January 31, 2022; (ii) recognized a net gain (loss) on disposition of discontinued operations of Ps.56,065,530 and Ps.(1,943,647), for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively; and (iii) recognized as deferred revenue a prepayment made by TelevisaUnivision in the aggregate amount of U.S.$276.2 million (Ps.5,729,377), for the use of concession rights owned by the Group, which was classified as current and non-current liabilities in the Group's consolidated statement of financial position (see Notes 5, 14 and 20).

On October 27, 2022, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a proposal to separate from the Group certain businesses that were part of its Other Businesses segment, including its fútbol operations, the Azteca Stadium, the gaming operations, and publishing and distribution of magazines, as well as certain related assets and liabilities (the "Spun-off Businesses"). On April 26, 2023, the Company's stockholders approved this proposal. On January 31, 2024, this proposal was carried out through the Spin-off, creating a new con-trolling entity, Ollamani, S.A.B. ("Ollamani"), that holds the Spun-off Businesses, and has the same shareholding structure as the Company. On February 12, 2024, the Group and Ollamani obtained all of the required corporate and regulatory authorizations for the Spin-off. As of December 31, 2023, the Group continued to present the Spun-off Businesses as part of the Group's Other Businesses segment and their results of operations as part of the Group's continuing operations, as the required regulatory approvals had not been obtained as of that date, and those approvals were considered substantive (see Note 23).

The Group has an investment in an Open-Ended Fund that has as a primary objective to achieve capital appreciation by using a broad range of strategies through investments in securities, including without limitation stock, debt and other financial instruments, a principal portion of which are considered as Level 1 financial instruments, in telecom, media and other sectors across global markets, including Latin America and other emerging markets. Shares may be redeemed on a quarterly basis at the Net Asset Value ("NAV") per share as of such redemption date. The fair value of this fund is determined by using the NAV per share. The NAV per share is calculated by determining the value of the fund assets, all of which are measured at fair value, and subtracting all of the fund liabilities and dividing the result by the total number of issued shares.
(2)
The fair value of publicly traded equity instruments is determined by using quoted market prices at the measurement date.

GTAC was granted a 20-year contract for the lease of a pair of dark fiber wires held by the Mexican Federal Electricity Commission and a concession to operate a public telecommunications network in Mexico with an expiration date in 2030. GTAC is a joint venture in which a subsidiary of the Company, a subsidiary of Grupo de Telecomunicaciones Mexicanas, S.A. de C.V., and a subsidiary of Megacable, S.A. de C.V., have an equal equity participation of 33.3%. A subsidiary of the Company entered into long-term loans to provide financing to GTAC for an aggregate principal amount of Ps.1,399,017, with an annual interest of the Mexican Interbank Interest Rate ("Tasa de Interés Interbancaria de Equilibrio" or "TIIE") plus 200 basis points computed on a monthly basis and payable on an annual basis or at dates agreed by the parties. Under the terms of these long-term loans, principal amounts can be prepaid at dates agreed by the parties before their maturities between 2024 and 2032. During the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, GTAC paid principal and interest to the Group in connection with these long-term loans in the aggregate principal amount of Ps.178,914 and Ps.146,386, respectively. The net investment in GTAC as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, included amounts receivable in connection with these long-term loans to GTAC in the aggregate amount of Ps.948,549 and Ps.853,163, respectively. These amounts receivable are in substance a part of the Group's net investment in this investee (see Note 9).

(2)
The Group accounts for its investment in PDS under the equity method, due to its 50% interest in this joint venture. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Group's investment in PDS included intangible assets and goodwill in the aggregate amount of Ps.$113,837.




76 of 94

TelevisaUnivision

The Group accounts for its investment in common stock of TelevisaUnivision, the parent company of Univision Communications Inc. ("Univision"), under the equity method due to the Group's ability to exercise significant influence, as defined under IFRS Accounting Standards, over TelevisaUnivision operations. The Group has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of TelevisaUnivision because (i) it owned 9,290,999 shares of Class A Common Stock shares of TelevisaUnivision as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and 750,000 Series B Preferred shares of TelevisaUnivision as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 representing 43.7% and 44.4% of the outstanding common and preferred shares of TelevisaUnivision on an as-converted basis (excluding unvested and/or unsettled stock, restricted stock units and options of TelevisaUnivision), respectively, and 44.4% and 45.1% of the outstanding voting common shares TelevisaUnivision, as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively; and (ii) it has designated four members of the Board of Directors of TelevisaUnivision, one of which serves as the Chairman. The Chairman does not presently have a tie-breaking vote or other similar power in connection with any decisions of the Board. The governing documents of TelevisaUnivision provide for a 11-member Board of Directors; however, the Board of Directors currently consists of 10 members, and the Group has the right to appoint one additional member. Until January 31, 2022, the Group was also a party to a Program Licensing Agreement ("PLA"), as amended, with Univision, pursuant to which Univision had the right to broadcast certain Televisa content in the United States, and to another program license agreement pursuant to which the Group had the right to broadcast certain Univision content in Mexico.

On January 31, 2022, the Group increased its investment in shares of TelevisaUnivision in the aggregate fair value amount of U.S.$1,500 million (Ps.30,912,000) comprised 3,589,664 Class A Common Stock shares of TelevisaUnivision, in the amount of U.S.$750 million (Ps.15,456,000), and 750,000 Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock shares ("Series B Preferred Shares") of TelevisaUnivision, with an annual preferred dividend of 5.5% payable on a quarterly basis, in the amount of U.S.$750 million (Ps.15,456,000). The Series B Preferred Shares are entitled or permitted to vote on any matter required or permitted to be voted upon by the stockholders of TelevisaUnivision. The investment in Series B Preferred Shares of TelevisaUnivision has been classified by the Group as investments in associates and joint ventures because this investment has in substance potential voting rights and gives access to the returns associated with an ownership in TelevisaUnivision. In connection with this investment, the Group received from TelevisaUnivision a preferred dividend in cash in the aggregate amount of U.S.$41.3 million (Ps.716,905) and U.S.$37.8 million (Ps.752,556) for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which was accounted for in share of income of associates in the Group's consolidated statement of income for those periods.

In conjunction with the TelevisaUnivision Transaction, and other observable indications that the value of the Group's net investment in TelevisaUnivision increased significantly during 2022 (including internal valuations of the recoverable amount of TelevisaUnivision), in the second quarter of 2022, the Group's management assessed whether there was any indication that the remaining impairment loss recognized by the Group in the first quarter of 2020 for its net investment in shares of TelevisaUnivision might no longer exist or might have decreased. As a result of this assessment, the Group's management concluded that there had been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount of the Group's net investment in TelevisaUnivision since the last impairment loss was recognized, and the carrying amount of such net investment was increased to an amount lower than its recoverable amount. The reversal of the remaining impairment loss amounted to U.S.$29.5 million (Ps.593,838) and was recognized in share of income of associates and joint ventures in the Group's consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Group recognized a share in loss of TelevisaUnivision for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, primarily in connection with a goodwill impairment adjustment recognized by TelevisaUnivision in the fourth quarter of 2023 and 2022.

In March and December 2023, the Group recognized a dilution loss resulting from a decrease in its share in TelevisaUnivision from 44.4% to 44.0%, and from 44.0% to 43.7%, respectively, on an as-converted basis (excluding unvested and/or unsettled stock, restricted stock units and options of TelevisaUnivision).

89 of 94


On May 17, 2018, the District Court appointed a lead plaintiff for the putative stockholder class. On August 6, 2018, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint. The Company thereupon filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On March 25, 2019, the District Court issued a decision denying the Company's motion to dismiss, holding that plaintiff's allegations, if true, were sufficient to support a claim. The parties began to exchange discovery materials, and the discovery process continued into 2022. On June 8, 2020, the District Court issued a decision denying class certification based on the inadequacy of the proposed class representative. On June 29, 2020, the District Court issued a decision granting class certification to a new class representative. The Company sought permission for leave to appeal the District Court's order.
On October 6, 2020, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit (the "Court of Appeals") denied the Company's request for leave to appeal the District Court's class certification order.  
On May 19, 2021, the District Court issued an order disqualifying class counsel and stayed the case for thirty days so the class representative could identify replacement counsel. On June 17, 2021, the District Court granted a request from the class representative and disqualified counsel to extend the stay for an additional sixty days. On June 18, 2021, a petition for a writ of mandamus was filed in the Court of Appeals, seeking reinstatement of disqualified counsel. On June 23, 2021, the Court of Appeals granted a request from the petitioners to stay proceedings in the District Court pending the Court of Appeals' decision on the petition. On August 24, 2021, the Court of Appeals denied the petition. On September 14, 2021, the case was returned to the District Court. On October 8, 2021, the District Court appointed new class counsel. On October 22, 2021, the Company filed a motion to define the class period. On March 31, 2022, the discovery period concluded, with exceptions.
On July 20, 2022, the District Court issued a decision on the Company's class definition motion, defining the class period as April 11, 2013 through November 17, 2017, inclusive. On August 3, 2022, the Company filed a petition with the Court of Appeals seeking permission for leave to appeal the District Court's order. On November 15, 2022, the Court of Appeals denied the Company's petition. On August 5, 2022, the Company filed a motion for summary judgment.
On November 23, 2022, the Company announced that it had reached an agreement in principle to settle the securities class action. As set forth in that disclosure, approximately U.S.$21.5 million of the total settlement amount of U.S.$95 million was to be provided by the Company, with the remainder to be funded under the Company's insurance policies. On December 28, 2022, the parties executed a memorandum of understanding memorializing the agreement in principle.
On February 28, 2023, the parties executed a settlement agreement to fully resolve and settle the class's claims, which the lead plaintiff filed with the District Court the same day, along with a motion for preliminary approval of the settlement. On April 20, 2023, the District Court granted preliminary approval of the settlement agreement. Prior funding from the insurance company of its portion of the settlement, on May 4, 2023, the Company paid the plaintiffs the total settlement amount. On August 8, 2023 the Court finally approved the settlement agreement, thus concluding the action, expressly releasing the defendants from any fault, liability, wrongdoing or damages. While the Company continues to believe that the allegations in the case were without merit, it also believed that eliminating the distraction, expense and risk of continued litigation was in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.
In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company recognized a provision for the settlement of this class action lawsuit in the amount of U.S.$95.0 million (Ps.1,850,220), and a receivable for a related reimbursement in the amount of U.S.$73.5 million (Ps.1,431,486) to be funded by the Company's insurance contracts, which were classified in current liabilities and current assets, respectively, in the Group's consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2022. The net amount of U.S.$21.5 million (Ps.425,762) was recognized in other expense in the Group's consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2022, and paid by the Company in the second quarter of 2023 (see Note 15).

Gaming Regulations
On November 16, 2023, the President of Mexico issued a decree ("Decree") published in the Diario Oficial de la Federación or Official Gazette ("DOF") amending and adding several provisions to the Reglamento de la Ley Federal de Juegos y Sorteos, or Gaming Regulations. The Decree came into force the day after its publication in the DOF.
The Decree prohibits the operation of slot machines. Permits for the operation of slot machines granted before the entry into force of the Decree will remain valid in their terms.
Additionally, the Decree establishes that permits will have a minimum term of one year and a maximum term of fifteen years, counted from the publication of the Decree in the DOF. Previously, permits had a maximum term of twenty-five years. However, the Decree specifies that all existing permits currently in operation will remain valid during their current validity, considering the new maximum term of fifteen years, and without any extension.
On December 14, 2023, the subsidiaries of the Company in the Gaming Business challenged this Decree through an amparo lawsuit against the new provisions. On January 16, 2024, the relevant entities obtained the provisional suspension of the Decree so that the new provisions are not applied while the amparo trial is resolved.

Events after the Reporting Period
As discussed in Note 3, the Company completed the Spin-off on January 31, 2024 by creating Ollamani, which holds the Spun-off Businesses and has the same shareholding structure as the Company. The businesses of Cable and Sky, the Group's investment in TelevisaUnivision, broadcasting concessions and infrastructure, as well as other assets and real estate related to these businesses, remained in the Group. The Company obtained all required corporate and regulatory authorizations for the Spin-off on February 12, 2024. The shares of Ollamani began trading separately from the Company on the Mexican Stock Exchange on February 20, 2024, in the form of CPOs, under the ticker symbol "AGUILAS CPO". Beginning with the first quarter of 2024, the Group will begin presenting the results of operations of the Spun-off Businesses as discontinued operations in its consolidated statements of income for any comparative prior period and for the month ended January 31, 2024.
As a result of the Spin-off carried out on January 31, 2024, and the Company's distribution of the related Spun-off Businesses to Ollamani, the Company's capital stock reflected a reduction of Ps.752,071 (nominal Ps.376,844) in the first quarter of 2024, without having modified the number of outstanding shares of the Company.
The carrying amount of consolidated net assets of the Group's Spun-off Businesses as of December 31, 2023, represented approximately 4.5% of the Group's consolidated equity as of that date. The segment revenues and segment income of the Group's Spun-off Businesses for the year ended December 31, 2023, represented approximately 8.3% and 4.7%, respectively, of the Group's total segment revenues and total segment income, respectively, for that year.
On February 22, 2024, the Company's Board of Directors approved a proposed dividend of Ps.0.35 per CPO payable in the second quarter of 2024, subject to approval of the Company's stockholders.
On April 3, 2024, the Company announced that it has reached an agreement with AT&T for the acquisition of its participation in Sky, by which the Company would become an owner of 100% of the Sky's capital stock. As part of this agreement, the transaction price would be paid by the Group in 2027 and 2028. The transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals.
On April 9, 2024, the Group (i) executed a credit agreement with a syndicate of banks (the "Credit Agreement") for a five-year term loan in a principal amount of Ps.10,000,000 and a five-year revolving credit facility in the amount of U.S.$500 million, with loans thereunder to be funded in Mexican pesos; and (ii) terminated an unused revolving credit facility entered into 2022 with a syndicate of banks in the amount of U.S.$650 million, with an original maturity in 2025. The loans under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a floating rate based on a spread of 125 bps or 150 bps over the 28-day TIIE rate depending on the Group´s leverage ratio. On April 11, 2024, the Group used the proceeds of the loans under the Credit Agreement to prepay in full amounts outstanding under the credit agreement entered into by the Company in 2019 with a syndicate of banks in the principal amount of Ps.10,000,000, with an original maturity in June 2024.
In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements ("IFRS 18"), introducing new requirements to (i) improve comparability in the statement of income; (ii) enhance transparency of management-defined performance measures; and (iii) provide more useful grouping of information in the financial statements. IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements ("IAS 1") and carries forward many requirements from IAS 1 unchanged. IFRS 18 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, with early application permitted.
