Sales
Sales growth accelerated in the third quarter, growing by +5% from the second to € 1.98 billion, after +2% growth in the second & 0% in the first quarter. Sales from subscriptions increased +2% while sales from advertising jumped +41%. We expect sales to grow a quarterly average +5% to reach € 2.35 billion by the third quarter of 2021.

Cashflow
After three negative quarters in a row, free cashflow was back to a positive +€ 5 million in the third quarter, excluding working capital & net investments in marketable securities. We assume investment spending of € 26 million a quarter which, combined with higher sales, gives a higher average quarterly free cashflow of € 112 million, this next 12 months.

Sales growth accelerates, cashflow turns positive, but expensive, lower target price...

With some positive cashflow, the balance sheet net cash increased in the third quarter to € 1.18 billion from € 1.15 billion in the second & € 1.07 billion at the end of last year.
