Canal+ settled a long-running French tax dispute with authorities, agreeing on one-off charges for H1 2025 without impacting cash flow and raising its full-year cash flow from operations forecast to over €500 million (Reuters).
Free cash flow surged to €370 million in the first half of 2025 from €128 million a year earlier, driven by normalized tax payments and cash optimization initiatives, bolstering liquidity and funding capacity (Reuters).
South Africa’s Competition Tribunal conditionally approved Canal+’s €2 billion takeover of MultiChoice, unlocking transformative pan-African expansion and significant subscriber scale in English-speaking regions (Reuters).
Wholesale subscribers fell by 353,000 globally in H1 2025 while direct-to-consumer growth was only 0.2%, underscoring ongoing challenges in retaining and growing its subscriber base amid contract losses (Reuters).
Canal+ forecasts no revenue growth in 2025 as the shutdown of its free-to-air channel C8 and the termination of third-party contracts with Disney and others offset organic gains, signaling potential top-line stagnation (Reuters).
The deadline for its strategic MultiChoice takeover was pushed back six months to October 8, 2025, reflecting regulatory hurdles and prolonging execution risk for its pan-African expansion strategy (Reuters).
