The Television Programming and Broadcasting industry is responsible for the planning and broadcasting of TV programmes, which are either acquired from production companies outside the industry or produced by the TV broadcasters themselves. Revenue is contingent on selling advertising spots, rendering the industry susceptible to economic fluctuations, as seen in 2020; revenue plummeted during this year as the COVID-19 pandemic reduced consumer spending, which led to companies experiencing liquidity constraints, culminating in the reduction of TV advertising budgets. Revenue volatility has remained elevated in the years since the pandemic, as consumer sentiment and the economic outlook exhibited significant fluctuations, exerting pressure on TV companies’ profitability. Overall, revenue is expected to drop at a compound annual rate of 2.2% over the five years through 2025 to €21.9 billion, including an estimated dip of 0.6% in 2025. In recent years, streaming services and online video portals have emerged as a notable substitute for traditional TV programming. In particular, younger demographics have moved to streaming and social media platforms for recreational purposes rather than TV. This has exerted significant pressure on the industry, leading to a decline in its market share. In the coming years, revenue growth will be hampered by the expected increase in digitalisation, which will encourage competition from alternative video services, and by the decline in TV viewing among 18-64 year olds, the target group for advertising. This is likely to have a negative impact on demand for TV broadcasting and programming services. The number of companies active in the industry is likely to stagnate, reflecting this trend. Revenue is forecast to decline at a compound annual rate of 0.6% over the five years to 2030 to €21.2 billion.
