DISCLOSURE UNDER SEC. 15 OF THE GERMAN SECURITIES TRADING ACT Preliminary Figures: ProSiebenSat.1 Group Reports Positive Results for 2002 EBITDA of EUR 134 million, 6% drop in revenues (E)

Disclosure announcement transmitted by euro adhoc. The issuer is
responsible for the content of this announcement.
Munich, February 19, 2003. With an EBITDA of EUR 134 million, the
ProSiebenSat.1 Group closed fiscal 2002 with a profit despite the
lingering recession in the German television advertising market.
According to preliminary figures, Germany’s largest television
company generated Group revenues of EUR 1.895 billion last year. This
is equivalent to a reduction of 6% against 2001. With the distinct
chill in the economy, the net television advertising market may well
have shrunk as much as eight to ten percent in 2002. Though revenues
were down EUR 120 million, stringent cost management cushioned the
effects on the ProSiebenSat.1 Group’s earnings. Group pre-tax income
was EUR 21 million, EUR 85 million less than the year before. The
income statement was additionally burdened by a number of exceptional
factors, including the cost of broadcasting the Soccer World Cup and
the planned merger with KirchMedia, cancelled in March. EBIT was EUR
73 million, down EUR 81 million from 2001. EBITDA reached EUR 134
million, following EUR 225 million the previous year. The
consolidated net profit was EUR 15 million, following EUR 68 million.
The Group’s tax rate was 41%.
