CANAL+ GROUP REGRETS HAVING TO CEASE DISTRIBUTION OF SEVERAL TF1 GROUP CHANNELS IN AFRICA

CANAL+ Group acknowledges that discussions with the TF1 Group have broken down and will therefore cease distributing several of its channels in Africa, namely: TF1, TMC, TFX, TF1 Séries Films, LCI, Ushuaïa TV and Histoire TV.

While CANAL+ Group maintains long-term partnerships with all major French broadcasters as well as with the leading international streaming platforms, and despite several months of negotiations, it was unable to reach a comprehensive agreement, even though it was prepared to improve the terms in every respect for TF1.

Nevertheless, CANAL+ Group remains open to dialogue and is willing to resume discussions with a view to reaching an agreement based on reasonable, balanced and sustainable terms that safeguard the interests of both groups.
