INDEX TO AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
GRUPO TELEVISA, S. A. B. AND SUBSIDIARIES
F-1
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Grupo Televisa, S.A.B.:
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, shareholders equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Grupo Televisa, S.A.B (the Company), and subsidiaries at December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013 in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Companys management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing in Item 15. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements and the Companys internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America) and International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorization of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

GRUPO TELEVISA, S.A.B. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011
(In thousands of Mexican Pesos, except per CPO, per share, par value and exchange rate amounts)
1. Corporate Information
Grupo Televisa, S.A.B. (the Company) is a limited liability public stock corporation (Sociedad Anónima Bursátil or S.A.B.), incorporated under the laws of Mexico. Pursuant to the terms of the Companys bylaws (Estatutos Sociales) its corporate existence continues through 2106. The shares of the Company are listed and traded in the form of Certificados de Participación Ordinarios or CPOs on the Mexican Stock Exchange (Bolsa Mexicana de Valores) under the ticker symbol TLEVISA CPO, and in the form of Global Depositary Shares or GDSs, on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, under the ticker symbol TV. The Companys principal executive offices are located at Avenida Vasco de Quiroga 2000, Colonia Santa Fe, 01210 México, D. F., México.
Grupo Televisa, S.A.B. together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the Group) is the largest media company in the Spanish-speaking world based on its market capitalization and a major participant in the international entertainment business. It operates four broadcast channels in Mexico City and distributes its audiovisual content through different platforms in Mexico, produces and distributes 24 pay-TV brands for distribution in Mexico and the rest of the world, and exports its programs and formats to the United States through Univision Communications Inc. (Univision) and to other television networks in over 50 countries. The Group is also an active participant in Mexicos telecommunications industry. It has a majority interest in Sky, a leading direct-to-home satellite television system operating in Mexico, the Dominican Republic and Central America, and in four telecommunications businesses: Cablevisión, Cablemás, TVI, and Bestel, which offer pay-TV, video, voice and broadband services. The Group also has interests in magazine publishing and distribution, radio production and broadcasting, professional sports and live entertainment, feature-film production and distribution, the operation of a horizontal Internet portal, and gaming. In addition, the Group has a 50% equity stake in GSF Telecom Holdings, S.A.P.I. de C.V. (GSF), the controlling company of Grupo Iusacell, S.A. de C.V. (Iusacell), Mexicos third mobile telecom provider based on its subscribers. In the United States, the Group has equity and debentures that, upon conversion and subject to any necessary approval from the Federal Communications Commission in the United States, would represent approximately 38% on a fully-diluted, as-coverted basis of the equity capital in Broadcasting Media Partners, Inc. (BMP), the controlling company of Univision, the leading media company serving the United States Hispanic market.
2. Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies followed by the Group and used in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are summarized below.
(a) Basis of Presentation
As required by regulations issued by the Mexican Banking and Securities Commission (Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores) for listed companies in Mexico, beginning on January 1, 2012, the Group discontinued using Mexican Financial Reporting Standards (Mexican FRS) as issued by the Mexican Financial Reporting Standards Board (Consejo Mexicano de Normas de Información Financiera or CINIF) and began using International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) for financial reporting purposes. IFRSs comprise: (i) International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS); (ii) International Accounting Standards (IAS); (iii) IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) Interpretations; and (iv) Standing Interpretations Committee (SIC) Interpretations.
The consolidated financial statements of the Group as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, are presented in accordance with IFRSs as issued by the IASB. Through December 31, 2011 the consolidated financial statements of the Group were reported in accordance with Mexican FRS.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except by the measurement at fair value of temporary investments, derivative financial instruments, available-for-sale financial assets, and equity financial instruments as described below.
F-10
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group accounting policies. Changes in assumptions may have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements in the period the assumptions changed. Management believes that the underlying assumptions are appropriate. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where estimates and assumptions are significant to the Groups financial statements are disclosed in Note 5 to these consolidated financial statements.
These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance on April 8, 2014, by the Groups Chief Financial Officer.
(b) Consolidation
The financial statements of the Group are prepared on a consolidated basis and include the assets, liabilities and results of operations of all companies in which the Company has a controlling interest (subsidiaries). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated from the financial statements.
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Company has control. The Group controls an entity when this is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The existence and effects of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether or not the Company controls another entity. The subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is obtained by the Company and cease to consolidate from the date on which said control is lost.
The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
Goodwill is initially measured as the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the fair value of non-controlling interest over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If this consideration is lower than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized in income or loss.
Changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries without change of control
Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions that is, as transactions with the owners in their capacity as owners. The difference between fair value of any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity.
Disposal of subsidiaries
When the Company ceases to have control any retained interest in the entity is re-measured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, with the change in carrying amount recognized in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This means that amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to income or loss.

(c) Investments in Joint Ventures and Associates
Investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the contractual rights and obligations of each investor. Joint ventures are those joint arrangements where the Group exercises joint control with other stockholder or more stockholders without exercising control individually, and have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangements. Associates are those entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control, generally those entities with a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in joint ventures and associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognized at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the investors share of the net assets of the investee after the date of acquisition.
As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Group had investments in joint ventures and associates, including a 50% joint interest in GSF and an 8% interest in BMP. GSF is the parent company of Iusacell, a provider of telecommunication services, primarily engaged in providing mobile services throughout Mexico; and BMP is the parent company of Univision, the premier Spanish-language media company in the United States (see Notes 3, 9 and 10).
The Group recognizes its share of losses of a joint venture or an associate up to the amount of its initial investment, subsequent capital contributions and long-term loans, or beyond that when guaranteed commitments have been made by the Group in respect of obligations incurred by investees, but not in excess of such guarantees. If a joint venture or an associate for which the Group had recognized a share of losses up to the amount of its guarantees generates net income in the future, the Group would not recognize its share of this net income until the Group first recognizes its share of previously unrecognized losses.
If the Groups share of losses of a joint venture or an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the investee, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. The interest in a joint venture or an associate is the carrying amount of the investment in the investee under the equity method together with any other long-term investment that, in substance, form part of the Groups net investment in the investee. After the Groups interest is reduced to zero, additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint venture or associate.
(d) Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Groups executive officers (chief operating decision makers) who are responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance for each of the Groups operating segments.
F-13
(e) Foreign Currency Translation
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Groups entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (functional currency). The presentation and functional currency of the Groups consolidated financial statements is the Mexican peso, which is used for compliance with its legal and tax obligations.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or measurement where items are re-measured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the income statement as part of finance income or expense, except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges.
Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in foreign currency classified as available for sale are analyzed between exchange differences resulting from changes in the amortized cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the security. Translation differences related to changes in amortized cost are recognized in income or loss, and other changes in carrying amount are recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.
Translation of Non-Mexican subsidiaries financial statements
The financial statements of all the Group entities that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows: (a) assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of the statement of financial position; (b) income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); and (c) all resulting translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate. Translation differences arising are recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.
Assets and liabilities of non-Mexican subsidiaries that use the Mexican Peso as a functional currency are translated into Mexican Pesos by utilizing the exchange rate of the statement of financial position date for monetary assets and liabilities, and historical exchange rates for nonmonetary items, with the related adjustment included in the consolidated statement of income as income or finance expense.
Beginning in the third quarter of 2011, the Group designated as an effective hedge of foreign exchange exposure a portion of the outstanding principal amount of its U.S. dollar denominated long-term debt in connection with its net investment in shares of common stock of BMP, which amounted to U.S.$218.9 million (Ps.2,862,147) and U.S.$197.7 million (Ps.2,539,814) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Consequently, any foreign exchange gain or loss attributable to this designated hedging long-term debt is credited or charged directly to other comprehensive income or loss as a cumulative result from foreign currency translation (see Notes 3, 9 and 23).
(f) Cash and Cash Equivalents and Temporary Investments
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition. Cash is stated at nominal value and cash equivalents are measured at fair value, and the changes in the fair value are recognized in the income statement.
Temporary investments consist of short-term investments in securities, including without limitation debt with a maturity of over three months and up to one year at the date of acquisition, stock and other financial instruments, or a combination thereof, as well as current maturities of noncurrent held-to-maturity securities. Temporary investments are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the income statement, except the current maturities of non-current held-to-maturity securities which are measured at amortized cost.
As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, cash equivalents and temporary investments primarily consisted of fixed short-term deposits and corporate fixed income securities denominated in U.S. dollars and Mexican pesos, with an average yield of approximately 0.12% for U.S. dollar deposits and 4.12% for Mexican peso deposits in 2013, and approximately 0.23% for U.S. dollar deposits and 4.56% for Mexican peso deposits in 2012.
F-14
(g) Transmission Rights and Programming
Programming is comprised of programs, literary works, production talent advances and films.
Transmission rights and literary works are valued at the lesser of acquisition cost and net realizable value. Programs and films are valued at the lesser of production cost, which consists of direct production costs and production overhead, and net realizable value. Payments for production talent advances are initially capitalized and subsequently included as direct or indirect costs of program production.
The Groups policy is to capitalize the production costs of programs which benefit more than one annual period and amortize them over the expected period of future program revenues based on the Companys historical revenue patterns for similar productions.
Transmission rights, programs, literary works, production talent advances and films are recorded at acquisition or production cost. Cost of sales is calculated for the month in which such transmission rights, programs, literary works, production talent advances and films are matched with related revenues.
Transmission rights are amortized over the lives of the contracts. Transmission rights in perpetuity are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of the expected benefit as determined by past experience, but not exceeding 25 years.
(h) Inventories
Inventories of paper, magazines, materials and supplies are recorded at the lower of cost or its net realization value. The net realization value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, less costs estimated to conduct the sale. Cost is determined using the average cost method.
(i) Financial Assets
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, fair value through income and available-for-sale financial assets. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
Loans and Receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with changes in carrying value recognized in the income statement in the line which most appropriately reflects the nature of the item or transaction. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period. These are classified as non-current assets. The Groups loans and receivables are presented as trade notes and accounts receivable and other accounts and notes receivable in the consolidated statement of financial position (see Note 7).
Held-to-maturity Investments
Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Groups management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. After initial measurement, held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, less impairment, if any. Any gain or loss arising from these investments is included in finance income or loss in the consolidated statement of income. Held-to-maturity investments are included in investments in financial instruments, except for those with maturities less than 12 months from the end of the reporting period, which are classified as temporary investments (see Note 9).
F-15
Available-for-sale Financial Assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are not classified as loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments or financial assets at fair value through income or loss, and include debt securities and equity instruments. Debt securities in this category are those that are intended to be held for an indefinite period of time and that may be sold in response to needs for liquidity or in response to changes in the market conditions. Equity instruments in this category are those of companies in which the Group does not exercise joint control nor significant influence, but intent to hold for an indefinite term, and are neither classified as held for trading nor designated at fair value through income. After initial measurement, available-for-sale assets are measured at fair value with unrealized gains or losses recognized as other comprehensive income or loss until the investment is derecognized or the investment is determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss is recognized in the consolidated statement of income either in other finance income or expense (debt securities) or other income or expense (equity instruments). Interest earned whilst holding available-for-sale financial assets is reported as interest income using the effective interest rate method (see Notes 9 and 14).
Financial Assets at Fair Value through Income
Financial assets at fair value through income are financial assets held for trading. A financial assets is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives are also categorized as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current assets if expected to be settled within 12 months, otherwise they are classified as non-current.
Impairment of Financial Assets
The Group assesses at each statements of financial position date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective and other-than-temporary evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset. If it is determined that a financial asset or group of financial assets have sustained a decline other than temporary in their value a charge is recognized in income in the related period.
For financial assets classified as held-to-maturity the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the assets carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial assets original effective interest rate.
Impairment of Financial Assets Recognized at Amortized Cost
The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets measured at amortized cost is impaired. A financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a loss event) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.
(j) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at acquisition cost.
Subsequent costs are included in the assets carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to income or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Land is not depreciated. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is based upon the carrying value of the assets in use and is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the asset, as follows:
Estimated useful lives | ||||
Buildings |
20-65 years | |||
Building improvements |
5-20 years | |||
Technical equipment |
3-20 years | |||
Satellite transponders |
15 years | |||
Furniture and fixtures |
3-11 years | |||
Transportation equipment |
4-8 years | |||
Computer equipment |
3-5 years | |||
Leasehold improvements |
2-20 years |
F-16
The assets residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
An assets carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the assets carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognized within other income or expense in the consolidated income statement.
(k) Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are recognized at acquisition cost. Intangible assets acquired through business combinations are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, which include goodwill, publishing trademarks and television network concessions, are not amortized. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
Estimated useful lives | ||||
Licenses |
3-14 years | |||
Subscriber lists |
4-10 years | |||
Other intangible assets |
3-20 years |
Goodwill
Goodwill arises on the acquisition of subsidiaries and represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the Groups interest in net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree and the fair value of the non-controlling interest in the acquire.
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the cash generating units (CGUs), or groups of CGUs, that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Each unit or group of units to which the goodwill is allocated represents the lowest level within the entity at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. Goodwill is monitored at the operating segment level.
Goodwill impairment reviews are undertaken annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The carrying value of goodwill is compared to the recoverable amount, which is the higher of value in use and the fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment is recognized as an expense and may be subsequently reversed under certain circumstances.
(l) Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The Group reviews for impairment the carrying amounts of its long-lived assets, tangible and intangible, including goodwill (see Note 12), at least once a year, or whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that these carrying amounts may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the assets carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an assets fair value less costs to sell and value in use. To determine whether an impairment exists, the carrying value of the reporting unit is compared with its recoverable amount. Fair value estimates are based on quoted market values in active markets, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, the estimate of fair value is based on various valuation techniques, including discounted value of estimated future cash flows, market multiples or third-party appraisal valuations.
(m) Trade Payables
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Trade payables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
F-17
(n) Debt
Debt is recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Debt is subsequently carried at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in the income statement over the period of the debt using the effective interest method.
Fees paid on the establishment of debt facilities are recognized as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalized as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortized over the period of the facility to which it relates.
(o) Customer Deposits and Advances
Customer deposit and advance agreements for television advertising services provide that customers receive preferential prices that are fixed for the contract period for television broadcast advertising time based on rates established by the Group. Such rates vary depending on when the advertisement is aired, including the season, hour, day, rating and type of programming.
(p) Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provisions due to passage of time is recognized as interest expense.
(q) Equity
The capital stock and other equity accounts include the effect of restatement through December 31, 1997, determined by applying the change in the Mexican National Consumer Price Index between the dates capital was contributed or net results were generated and December 31, 1997, the date through which the Mexican economy was considered hyperinflationary under the guidelines of the IFRSs. The restatement represented the amount required to maintain the contributions and accumulated results in Mexican Pesos in purchasing power as of December 31, 1997.
(r) Revenue Recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, and represents amounts receivable for services provided. The Group recognizes revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured; when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity; and when specific criteria have been met for each of the Groups activities, as described below. The Group bases its estimate of return on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.
The Group derives the majority of its revenues from media and entertainment-related business activities both in Mexico and internationally. Revenues are recognized when the service is provided and collection is probable. A summary of revenue recognition policies by significant activity is as follows:
| Advertising revenues, including deposits and advances from customers for future advertising, are recognized at the time the advertising services are rendered. |
| Revenues from program services for network subscription and licensed and syndicated television programs are recognized when the programs are sold and become available for broadcast. |
| Revenues from magazine subscriptions are initially deferred and recognized proportionately as products are delivered to subscribers. Revenues from the sales of magazines are recognized on the date of circulation of delivered merchandise, net of a provision for estimated returns. |
| Revenues from publishing distribution are recognized upon distribution of the products. |
F-18
| Sky program service revenues, including advances from customers for future direct-to-home (DTH) program services, are recognized at the time the service is provided. |
| Cable television, internet and telephone subscription, and pay-per-view and installation fees are recognized in the period in which the services are rendered. |
| Revenues from telecommunications and data services are recognized in the period in which these services are provided. Telecommunications services include long distance and local telephony, as well as leasing and maintenance of telecommunications facilities. |
| Revenues from attendance to soccer games, including revenues from advance ticket sales for soccer games and other promotional events, are recognized on the date of the relevant event. |
| Motion picture production and distribution revenues are recognized as the films are exhibited. |
| Gaming revenues consist of the net win from gaming activities, which is the difference between amounts wagered and amounts paid to winning patrons. |
In respect to sales of multiple products or services, the Group evaluates whether it has fair value evidence for each deliverable in the transaction. For example, the Group sells cable television, internet and telephone subscription to subscribers in a bundled package at a rate lower than if the subscriber purchases each product on an individual basis. Subscription revenues received from such subscribers are allocated to each product in a pro-rata manner based on the fair value of each of the respective services.
(s) Interest Income
Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. When a loan and receivable is impaired, the Group reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of the instrument, and continues unwinding the discount as interest income. Interest income on impaired loan and receivables is recognized using the original effective interest rate.
(t) Employee Benefits
Pension and Seniority Premium Obligations
Plans exist for pensions and seniority premiums (post-employment benefits), for most of the Groups employees funded through irrevocable trusts. Increases or decreases in the consolidated liability or asset for post-employment benefits are based upon actuarial calculations. Contributions to the trusts are determined in accordance with actuarial estimates of funding requirements. Payments of post-employment benefits are made by the trust administrators. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using interest rates of government bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension obligation.
In the first quarter of 2013, the Group adopted the provisions of IAS 19, Employee Benefits, as amended, which became effective on January 1, 2013. The amended IAS 19 eliminated the corridor approach for the recognition of remeasurement of post-employment benefit obligations, and requires the calculation of finance costs on a net funding basis. Also, the amended IAS 19 requires the recognition of past service cost as an expense at the earlier of the following dates: (i) when the plan amendment or curtailment occurs; and (ii) when the entity recognizes related restructuring costs or termination benefits. As a result of the adoption of the amended IAS 19, the Group adjusted a consolidated unamortized past service cost balance and consolidated retained earnings as of January 1, 2013 in the aggregate amount of Ps.102,902 (see Note 15).
Remeasurement of post-employment benefit obligations related to experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions of post-employment benefits are recognized in the period in which they are incurred as part of other comprehensive income or loss in consolidated equity.
F-19
Profit Sharing
The employees profit sharing required to be paid under certain circumstances in Mexico, is recognized as a direct benefit to employees in the consolidated statements of income in the period in which it is incurred.
Termination Benefits
Termination benefits, which mainly represent severance payments by law, are recorded in the consolidated statement of income. The Group recognizes termination benefits at the earlier of the following dates: (a) when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits; and (b) when the entity recognizes costs for a restructuring is within the scope of IAS 37 and involves the payment of termination benefits.
(u) Income Taxes
The income tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred income tax. Income tax is recognized in the consolidated statement of income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the income tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
Deferred income tax is recognized, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, deferred income tax liabilities are not recognized if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill; deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction (other than in a business combination) that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable income or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences and tax loss carryforwards can be utilized. For this purpose, the Group takes into consideration all available positive and negative evidence, including factors such as market conditions, industry analysis, projected taxable income, carryforward periods, current tax structure, potential changes or adjustments in tax structure, and future reversals of existing temporary differences.
Deferred income tax liability is provided on taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, except for deferred income tax liability where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred income tax asset is provided on deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable income against which to utilize the benefit of the temporary difference and it is expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income taxes assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.
(v) Derivative Financial Instruments
The Group recognizes derivative financial instruments as either assets or liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial position and measures such instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative financial instrument depends on the intended use of the derivative financial instrument and the resulting designation. For a derivative financial instrument designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of such derivatives gain or loss is initially reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into income when the hedged exposure affects income. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is reported in income immediately. For a derivative financial instrument designated as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change together with the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributed to the risk being hedged. For derivative financial instruments that are not designated as accounting hedges, changes in fair value are recognized in income in the period of change. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, certain derivative financial instruments qualified for hedge accounting (see Note 14).
F-20
(w) Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income for the period includes the net income for the period presented in the consolidated statement of income plus other comprehensive income for the period reflected in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
(x) Stock-based Compensation
The share-based compensation expense is measured at fair value at the date the equity benefits are conditionally sold to officers and employees, and is recognized in consolidated stockholders equity with charge to consolidated income (administrative expense) over the vesting period (see Note 16). The Group accrued a stock-based compensation expense of Ps.601,181 and Ps.628,637 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
(y) Leases
The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement and requires an assessment of whether the fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and whether the arrangement conveys the right to use the asset.
Leases of property, plant and equipment other assets where the Group holds substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance lease assets are capitalized at the commencement of the lease term at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the lease asset. The obligations relating to finance leases, net of finance charges in respect of future periods, are recognized as liabilities. The interest element of the finance cost is charged to the income statement over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases is depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease term.
Leases where a significant portion of the risks and rewards are held by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Rentals are charged to the income statement on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
Leasehold improvements are depreciated at the lesser of its useful life or contract term.
(z) New and Amended IFRS
New and amended standards adopted by the Group
The following standards have been adopted by the Group for the first time for the financial year beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The application of the following standards did not have significant impact on the Groups consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS: IAS 19 Employee Benefits (as amended in 2011); IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (as amended in 2011); IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements; IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements; IFRS 12 Disclosures of Interests in Other Entities and IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement.
New and amended standards not yet adopted
Below is a list of the new and amended standards that have been issued by the IASB and are effective for annual periods starting on or after January 1, 2014. Management has evaluated the potential impact of these pronouncements and concluded that they are not expected to have a significant impact on the Groups consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRSs.

F-21
IAS 36 Impairment of Assets (as amended in May 2013) removed certain disclosures of the recoverable amount of cash generating units, which had been included in IAS 36 Impairment of Assets by the issue of IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement.
IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (as amended in June 2013) allows hedge accounting to continue in a situation where a derivative, which has been designated as a hedging instrument, is novated to effect clearing with a central counterparty as a result of laws or regulation, if specific conditions are met. In this context, a novation indicates that parties to a contract agree to replace their original counterparty with a new one.
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (IFRS 9) addresses the classification, measurement and recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. IFRS 9 was issued in November 2009 and October 2010. It replaces the parts of IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (IAS 39) that relate to the classification and measurement of financial instruments. IFRS 9 requires financial assets to be classified into two measurement categories: those measured at amortized cost and those measured at fair value. The determination is made at initial recognition. The basis of classification depends on the entitys business model for managing its financial instruments and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset. The guidance in IAS 39 on impairment of financial assets and hedge accounting continues to apply. For financial liabilities, this standard retains most of the IAS 39 requirements. The main change is that, in cases where the fair value option is taken for financial liabilities, the part of a fair value change due to an entitys own credit risk is recorded in other comprehensive income rather than the income statement, unless this creates an accounting mismatch. Some amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures (IFRS 7) were issued in December 2011. These amendments to IFRS 9 modify the mandatory effective date of this standard and the relief from restating prior periods, and also add transition disclosures to IFRS 7 that are required to be applied when IFRS 9 is first applied.
IFRIC 21 Levies was issued in May 2013 as an interpretation of IAS 37, Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets (IAS 37), on the accounting for levies imposed by governments. IAS 37 sets out criteria for the recognition of a liability, one of which is the requirement for the entity to have a present obligation as a result of a past event (known as an obligating event). The interpretation clarifies that the obligating event that give rise to a liability to pay a levy is the activity described in the relevant legislation that triggers the payment of the levy.
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle and Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2011-2013 Cycle were published in December 2013 and set out amendments to certain IFRSs. These amendments result from proposals made during the IASBs Annual Improvements process, which provides a vehicle for making non-urgent but necessary amendments to IFRSs. The IFRSs amended and the topics addressed by these amendments are as follows:
Annual Improvements 2010-2012 Cycle |

IFRS 14 Regulatory Deferral Accounts (IFRS 14) enhances the comparability of financial reporting by entities that are engaged in rate-regulated activities. IFRS 14 was issued in January 2014 as an interim standard and does not provide any specific guidance for rate-regulated activities, which are subject to a comprehensive project being developed by the IASB. IFRS 14 is intended for first-time adopters of IFRSs, and an entity that already presents IFRS financial statements is not eligible to apply this standard.

3. Acquisitions, Investments and Dispositions
In July 2013, the Group made an investment in the amount of Ps.7,000,000 in convertible debt instruments which, subject to regulatory approvals, will allow the Group to acquire 95% of the equity interest of Tenedora Ares, S.A.P.I. de C.V. (Ares), owner of 51% of the equity interest of Grupo Cable TV, S.A. de C.V. (Cablecom), a telecommunications company that offers video, telephony, data and other telecom services in Mexico. In addition, Ares will have an option to acquire in the future, subject to regulatory approvals, the remaining 49% of the equity interest of Cablecom at a value of approximately 9.3 times earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of Cablecom, as defined, of the 12-month period preceding the closing of such acquisition. In addition, as part of this transaction, the Group also invested in a long-term debt instrument issued by Ares in the amount of U.S.$195 million (Ps.2,549,625) (see Notes 9, 14 and 19).
In December 2011, the Company agreed to exchange on a non-cash basis its 40.8% interest in Gestora de Inversiones Audiovisuales La Sexta, S.A. (La Sexta), a free-to-air television channel in Spain, for a 14.5% equity participation in Imagina Media Audiovisual, S. L. (Imagina), a significant provider of content and audiovisual services for the media and entertainment industry in Spain. All closing conditions applicable to this transaction were met on February 29, 2012, and the Company recognized a pre-tax gain of Ps.24,856 as a result of this transaction in the consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2012, and classified its investment in Imagina as an equity financial instrument, with changes in related fair value recognized as other comprehensive income or loss (see Notes 9 and 21).
In April 2011, the Company, Iusacell and GSF reached an agreement under which the Group made an investment intended to hold a 50% equity stake in GSF, which consisted of (i) U.S.$37.5 million (Ps.442,001) in 1.093875% of the outstanding shares of common stock of GSF, which amount was paid in cash by the Group in April 2011; and (ii) U.S.$1,565 million (Ps.19,229,056) in unsecured debentures issued by GSF that were mandatorily convertible into shares of common stock of GSF, subject to regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions. The debentures issued by GSF were divided into two tranches, the Series 1 Debentures and the Series 2 Debentures. The Series 1 Debentures were the 364,996 registered unsecured debentures of GSF, par value U.S.$1,000 each, representing in the aggregate U.S.$365 million (Ps.4,302,146), issued against the payment in cash made by the Group in April 2011. The Series 2 Debentures were the 1,200,000 registered unsecured debentures of GSF, par value U.S.$1,000 each, representing in the aggregate U.S.$1,200 million (Ps.14,926,910), issued against payments in cash made by the Group in the period from April through October 2011, in the aggregate amount of U.S.$1,200 million (Ps.14,926,910). These debentures had a conversion date on or before December 2015, with an annual interest rate of 2%, which was receivable on a quarterly basis. In addition, the Company agreed to make an additional payment of U.S.$400 million (Ps.5,230,000) to GSF if cumulative EBITDA of Iusacell, as defined, reaches U.S.$3,472 million (Ps.45,396,400) at any time between 2011 and 2015. In June 2012, (i) the Mexican Antitrust Commission approved, subject to the acceptance of certain conditions, the conversion by the Group of the debentures issued by GSF into common stock of GSF; (ii) the Group accepted the conditions established by the Mexican Antitrust Commission and converted the debentures issued by GSF into common stock of GSF; and (iii) GSF became a jointly controlled entity of the Group with a 50% interest and the Group began to share equal governance rights with the other owner of GSF. As of June 30, 2012, the Group recognized at fair value its 50% interest in GSF in the amount of Ps.18,738,057, which included related intangible assets, and began to account for this joint venture by using the equity method. Before that date, this investment was accounted for as an equity financial instrument with changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income or loss. In connection with the conversion of debentures into common stock of GSF, the Group reclassified a cumulative net loss in fair value of Ps.933,000 recognized in other comprehensive income or loss through June 30, 2012, to other finance expense in the consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2012. During 2013, the Group made capital contributions in connection with its 50% interest in GSF in the aggregate amount of Ps.1,587,500 (see Notes 9, 10 and 22).
On March 31, 2011, the stockholders of Cablemás approved, among other matters, a capital increase in Cablemás, by which a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company increased its equity interest in Cablemás from 58.3% to 90.8%. On April 29, 2011, the stockholders of the Company approved, among other matters: (i) the merger of Cablemás into the Company on that date, for which regulatory approvals were obtained in the first half of 2011; and (ii) an increase in the capital stock of the Company in connection with this merger, by which the Groups controlling interest in Cablemás increased from 90.8% to 100%. These transactions between stockholders, which were completed in October 2011, resulted in a net loss of Ps.1,595,796, which decreased retained earnings attributable to stockholders of the Company in the year ended December 31, 2011 (see Note 18).

On December 20, 2010, the Group, Univision, BMP and other parties affiliated with the investor groups that owned BMP entered into various agreements and completed certain transactions. As a result, the Group: (i) made an aggregate cash investment of U.S.$1,255 million in BMP in the form of a capital contribution in the amount of U.S.$130 million (Ps.1,613,892), representing 5% of the outstanding shares of common stock of BMP, and 1.5% Convertible Debentures of BMP due 2025 in the principal amount of U.S.$1,125 million (Ps.13,904,222), which are convertible at the Companys option into additional shares equivalent to approximately 30% equity stake of BMP, subject to existing laws and regulations in the United States, and other conditions; (ii) acquired an option to purchase at fair value additional shares equivalent to a 5% equity stake of BMP, subject to existing laws and regulations in the United States, and other terms and conditions and (iii) sold to Univision its entire interest in TuTv, LLC (TuTv), which represented 50% of TuTvs capital stock, for an aggregate cash amount of U.S.$55 million (Ps.681,725). In connection with this investment, (i) the Company entered into an amended Program License Agreement (PLA) with Univision, pursuant to which Univision has the right to broadcast certain Televisa content in the United States for a term that commenced on January 1, 2011 and ends on the later of 2025 or seven and one-half years after the Group has sold two-thirds of its initial investment in BMP, and which includes an increased percentage of royalties from Univision and (ii) the Group entered into a new program license agreement with Univision, the Mexico License Agreement (MLA), under which the Group has the right to broadcast certain Univisions content in Mexico for the same term as that of the PLA. In connection with its option to purchase at fair value additional shares equivalent to a 5% equity of BMP, in the fourth quarter of 2011 and third quarter of 2012, the Group entered into agreements to buy from existing BMP stockholders additional 219,125 shares and 97,389 shares, respectively, of common stock of BMP in the aggregate cash amount of U.S.$49.1 million (Ps.669,392) and U.S.$22.5 million (Ps.301,534), respectively. As a result of these acquisitions, the Group increased its equity stake in BMP to 7.1% and 8%, respectively (see Notes 9, 10 and 22).
4. Financial Risk Management
(a) Market Risk
Market risk is the exposure to an adverse change in the value of financial instruments caused by market factors including changes in equity prices, interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and inflation rates. The following information includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ from those presented.
The Group is exposed to market risks arising from changes in equity prices, interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and inflation rates, in both the Mexican and U.S. markets. Risk management activities are monitored by the Risk Management Committee and reported to the Executive Committee.
(i) Foreign Exchange Risk
The Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to the U.S. dollar and the Mexican peso. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions, recognized assets and liabilities and net investments in foreign operations.
Foreign currency exchange risk is monitored by assessing the net monetary liability position in U.S. dollars and the forecasted cash flow needs for anticipated U.S. dollar investments and servicing the Groups U.S. dollar denominated debt.
Management has set up a policy to require Group companies to manage their foreign exchange risk against their functional currency. To manage their foreign exchange risk arising from future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities, entities in the Group use forward contracts. In compliance with the procedures and controls established by the Risk Management Committee, in 2013 and 2012, the Group entered into certain derivative transactions with certain financial institutions in order to manage its exposure to market risks resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and inflation rates. The objective in managing foreign currency and inflation fluctuations is to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility.

(2) | In 2013 and 2012, include U.S. dollar equivalent amounts of U.S.$14.1 million and U.S.$10.5 million, respectively, related to other foreign currencies, primarily euros. |
At December 31, 2013, a hypothetical 10% appreciation / depreciation in the U.S. dollar to Mexican peso exchange rate would result in a gain/loss in earnings of Ps.916,913. At December 31, 2012, a hypothetical 10% appreciation / depreciation in the U.S. dollar to Mexican peso exchange rate would result in a gain/loss in earnings of Ps.590,821.
In December 2012 and 2011, the Group entered into foreign exchange option agreements to buy U.S.$135.0 million and U.S.$337.5 million, respectively, to hedge against a Mexican peso depreciation of 30% with various maturity dates until the end of 2015 and 2014, respectively. The fair value of these option contracts was an asset of Ps.6,122 and Ps.12,419 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
F-25
(ii) Cash Flow Interest Rate Risk
The Group monitors the exposure to interest rate risk by: (i) evaluating differences between interest rates on its outstanding debt and short-term investments and market interest rates on similar financial instruments; (ii) reviewing its cash flow needs and financial ratios (indebtedness and interest coverage); (iii) assessing current and forecasted trends in the relevant markets; and (iv) evaluating peer Group and industry practices. This approach allows the Group to determine the interest rate mix between variable and fixed rate debt.
The Groups interest rate risk arises from long-term debt. Debt issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk which is partially offset by cash and cash equivalents held at variable rates. Debt issued at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. During recent years the Group has maintained most of its debt in fixed rate instruments.
Based on various scenarios, the Group manages its cash flow interest rate risk by using cross-currency interest rate swap agreements and floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps. Cross-currency interest rate swap agreements allow the Group to hedge against Mexican peso depreciation on the interest payments for medium-term periods. Interest rate swaps have the economic effect of converting borrowings from floating rates to fixed rates.
Sensitivity and Fair Value Analyses
The sensitivity analyses that follow are intended to present the hypothetical change in fair value or loss in earnings due to changes in interest rates, inflation rates, foreign currency exchange rates and debt and equity market prices as they affect the Groups financial instruments at December 31, 2013 and 2012. These analyses address market risk only and do not take into consideration other risks that the Group faces in the ordinary course of business, including country risk and credit risk. The hypothetical changes reflect management view of changes that are reasonably possible over a one-year period. For purposes of the following sensitivity analyses, the Group has made conservative assumptions of expected near-term future changes in U.S. interest rates, Mexican interest rates, inflation rates and Mexican peso to U.S. dollar exchange rate of 10%. The results of the analyses do not purport to represent actual changes in fair value or losses in earnings that the Group will incur.

(b) Credit Risk
Credit risk is managed on a Group basis, except for credit risk relating to accounts receivable balances. Each local entity is responsible for managing and analyzing the credit risk for each of their new clients before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposure to customers, including outstanding receivables and committed transactions. For banks and financial institutions, only independently rated parties with a minimum rating of AA in local scale for domestic institutions and BBB in global scale for foreign institutions are accepted. If customers are independently rated, these ratings are used. If there is no independent rating, the Groups risk control function assesses the credit quality of the customer, taking into account its financial position, past experience and other factors. Individual risk limits are set based on internal or external ratings in accordance with limits set by the Companys management. See Note 7 for further disclosure on credit risk.
No credit limits were exceeded during the reporting period, and management does not expect any losses from non-performance by the counterparties.
The Group historically has not had significant credit losses arising from customers.
(c) Liquidity Risk
Cash flow forecasting is performed in the operating entities of the Group and aggregated by corporate management. Corporate management monitors rolling forecasts of the Groups liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs while maintaining sufficient headroom on its borrowing facilities at all times so that the Group does not breach borrowing limits or covenants (where applicable) on any of its borrowing facilities. Such forecasting takes into consideration the Groups debt financing plans, covenant compliance, compliance with internal statement of financial position ratio targets and, if applicable external regulatory or legal requirements.
Surplus cash held by the operating entities over and above balance required for working capital management are transferred to the Group treasury. Group treasury invests surplus cash in interest bearing current accounts, time deposits, money market deposits and marketable securities, choosing investments with appropriate maturities or sufficient liquidity to provide sufficient headroom as determined by the above-mentioned forecasts. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Group held cash and cash equivalents of Ps.16,692,033 and Ps.19,063,325, respectively, and temporary investments of Ps.3,722,976 and Ps.5,317,296, respectively, that are expected to readily generate cash inflows for managing liquidity risk (see Note 6).
The table below analyses the Groups non-derivative and derivative financial liabilities as well as related contractual interest on debt and finance lease obligations into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the statement of financial position date to the contractual maturity date. Derivative financial liabilities are included in the analysis if their contractual maturities are essential for an understanding of the timing of the cash flows. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows.

Certain of the Groups derivative financial instruments (coupon swaps) are in hedge relationships and are due to settle within 12 months of the statement of financial position date. These contracts require undiscounted contractual cash inflows of U.S.$12.8 million and U.S.$19.9 million in 2014 and 2013, respectively and undiscounted contractual cash outflows of Ps.165,316 and Ps.256,073 in 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Capital Management
The Groups objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Groups ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for stockholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure in order to minimize the cost of capital.
5. Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions
Estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. By definition, the resulting accounting estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of consolidated assets and liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below.
(a) Accounting for Programming
The Group produces a significant portion of programming for initial broadcast over its television networks in Mexico, its primary market. Following the initial broadcast of this programming, the Group then licenses some of this programming for broadcast in secondary markets, such as Mexico, the United States, Latin America, Asia, Europe and Africa. Under IFRS, in order to properly capitalize and subsequently amortize production costs related to this programming, the Group must estimate the expected future benefit period over which a given program will generate revenues (generally, over a five-year period). The Group then amortizes the production costs related to a given program over the expected future benefit period. Under this policy, the Group generally expenses approximately 70% of the production costs related to a given program in its initial broadcast run and defers and expenses the remaining production costs over the remainder of the expected future benefit period (see Note 2 (g)).
The Group estimates the expected future benefit periods based on past historical revenue patterns for similar types of programming and any potential future events, such as new outlets through which the Group can exploit or distribute its programming, including its consolidated subsidiaries and equity investees. To the extent that a given future expected benefit period is shorter than the estimate, the Group may have to accelerate capitalized production costs sooner than anticipated. Conversely, to the extent that a given future expected benefit period is longer than the estimate, the Group may have to extend the amortization schedule for the remaining capitalized production costs.
F-29
The Group also purchases programming from, and enters into license arrangements with, various third party programming producers and providers, pursuant to which it receives the rights to broadcast programming produced by third parties over its television networks in Mexico. In the case of programming acquired from third parties, the Group estimates the expected future benefit period based on the anticipated number of showings in Mexico. In the case of programming licensed from third parties, the Group estimates the expected future benefit period based upon the term of the license. To the extent that a given future expected benefit period is shorter than the estimate, the Group may have to accelerate the purchase price or the license fee sooner than anticipated. Conversely, to the extent that a given future expected benefit period is longer than the estimate, the Group may have to extend the amortization schedule for the remaining portion of the purchase price or the license fee.
(b) Investments in Joint Ventures and Associates
Some of the Groups investments are structured as investments in joint ventures and associates (see Notes 2 (c) and 10). As a result, the results of operations attributable to these investments are not consolidated with the results of the Groups various segments for financial reporting purposes, but are reported as share of income or loss of joint ventures and associates in the consolidated statement of income (see Note 10).
In the past, the Group has made significant capital contributions and loans to its joint ventures and associates, and it may in the future make additional capital contributions and loans to at least some of its joint ventures. In the past, these ventures have generated, and they may continue to generate, operating losses and negative cash flows as they continue to build and expand their respective businesses.
The Group periodically evaluates its investments in these joint ventures and associates for impairment, taking into consideration the performance of these ventures as compared to projections related to net sales, expenditures, strategic plans and future required cash contributions, among other factors. In doing so, the Group evaluates whether any declines in value are other than temporary. The Group has taken impairment charges in the past for some of these investments. Given the dynamic environments in which these businesses operate, as well as changing macroeconomic conditions, there can be no assurance that the Groups future evaluations will not result in recognizing additional impairment charges for these investments.
Once the carrying balance of a given investment is reduced to zero, the Group evaluates whether it should suspend the equity method of accounting, taking into consideration both quantitative and qualitative factors, such as long-term loans guarantees it has provided to these joint ventures and associates, future funding commitments and expectations as to the viability of the business. These conditions may change from year to year, and accordingly, the Group periodically evaluates whether to continue to account for its various investments under the equity method.
(c) Goodwill and Other Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets
Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are reviewed for impairment at least annually. When an impairment test is performed, the recoverable amount is assessed by reference to the higher of the net present value of the expected future cash flows (value in use) of the relevant cash generating unit and the fair value less cost to sell.
The recoverable amount of cash generating units has been determined based on value in use calculations. These calculations require the use of estimates, including managements expectations of future revenue growth, operating costs, profit margins and operating cash flows for each cash-generating unit.
During 2013, the Group recorded impairments for goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets related to its joint venture investment in capital stock of GSF, and its Publishing segment (see Notes 10 and 12).
There were no goodwill impairments recorded in 2012 and 2011.
(d) Long-lived Assets
The Group presents certain long-lived assets other than goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets in its consolidated statement of financial position. Long-lived assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may no longer be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the assets carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an assets fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Recoverability is analyzed based on projected cash flows. Estimates of future cash flows involve considerable management judgment. These estimates are based on historical data, future revenue growth, anticipated market conditions, management plans, and assumptions regarding projected rates of inflation and currency fluctuations, among other factors. If these assumptions are not correct, the Group would have to recognize a write-off or write-down or accelerate the amortization schedule related to the carrying value of these assets (see Notes 2 (l), 12 and 21). The Group has not recorded any significant impairment charges over the past few years.
F-30
(e) Deferred Income Taxes
The Group records its deferred tax assets based on the likelihood that these assets are realized in the future. This likelihood is assessed by taking into consideration the future taxable income. In the event the Group were to determine that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of the net recorded amount, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase income in the period such determination was made. Should the Group determine that it would not be able to realize all or part of its net deferred tax asset in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be charged to income in the period such determination was made.
(f) Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value
The Group has a significant amount of financial assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The degree of managements judgment involved in determining the fair value of a financial asset and liability varies depending upon the availability of quoted market prices. When observable quoted market prices exist, that is the fair value estimate the Group uses. To the extent such quoted market prices do not exist, management uses other means to determine fair value.

(1) | As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Group held an investment in 1.5% Convertible Debentures due 2025 issued by BMP in the principal amount of U.S.$1,125 million (Ps.14,709,375 and Ps.14,456,250, respectively). These Convertible Debentures are classified as available-for-sale financial assets with changes in fair value recognized in consolidated other comprehensive income or loss. The Groups option of converting these debentures into an equity stake of BMP is accounted for as an embedded derivative with changes in fair value recognized in consolidated income (see Notes 3, 14 and 19). |
(2) | As of December 31, 2013, the Group held an investment in convertible debt instruments issued by Ares which, subject to regulatory approvals, will allow the Group to acquire 95% of the equity interest of Ares. These debt instruments have an initial maturity in 2018, which can be extended through 2023, with an annual interest of 4% capitalized into the principal amount on a semiannual basis. As of December 31, 2013, the Group also held an investment in a note payable due 2023 issued by Ares in the principal amount of U.S.$195 million with an annual interest of the higher of 2.5% and the six-month LIBOR plus 190 basis points, which is payable at the maturity of the note. The debt financial instruments are classified as available-for-sale financial assets with changes in fair value recognized in consolidated other comprehensive income or loss . The eventual conversion of the debt instruments into and equity stake of Ares is accounted for as an embedded derivative with changes in fair value recognized in consolidated income (see Notes 3 and 14). |
(3) | The Companys investment in 14.5% of the common stock of Imagina is accounted for as an available-for-sale equity financial asset with changes in fair value recognized in consolidated other comprehensive income or loss (see Notes 3 and 21). |
(4) | The Group has an investment in an open ended fund that has as a primary objective to achieve capital appreciation by using a broad range of strategies through investments and transactions in telecom, media and other sectors across global markets, including Latin America and other emerging markets. Shares may be redeemed on a quarterly basis at the Net Asset Value (NAV) per share as of such redemption date. The fair value of this fund is determined by using the NAV per share. The NAV per share is calculated by determining the value of the fund assets and subtracting all of the fund liabilities and dividing the result by the total number of issued shares (see Note 2 (i)). |
(5) | Held-to-maturity investments represent corporate fixed income securities with long-term maturities. These investments are stated at amortized cost. Maturities of these investments subsequent to December 31, 2013, are as follows: Ps.342,238 in 2015, Ps.193,913 in 2016 and Ps.95,813 thereafter. Held-to-maturity financial assets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 are denominated primarily in Mexican pesos. |

(1) | Effective in June 2012, the Group shares equal governance rights with the other owner of GSF, and began to account for this joint venture under the equity method. The investment in GSF includes intangible assets in the amount of Ps.5,172,851 and Ps.10,009,206 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively (see Note 3). Following the approvals of new industry regulations during 2013, and due to the lack of specific guidance, which is still being discussed by the Mexican congress, Management determined that it will take a longer period to realize the projected benefits of its investment, thus affecting its present value. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment of Ps.4,587,785 in its joint venture in the consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2013. The recoverable amount for GSF has been determined based on fair value calculations. Determining fair value requires the exercise of significant judgment, including judgment about appropriate discount rates, perpetual growth rates, the amount and timing of expected future cash flows for a period of time that comprise five years, as well as relevant comparable company earnings multiples for the market-based approach. The key assumptions used for fair value calculations of the recoverable amount of GSF in 2013 and 2012 were as follows: |
2013 | 2012 | |||||||
Long-term growth rate |
3.00 | % | 3.00 | % | ||||
Discount rate |
13.60 | % | 13.70 | % |
(2) | In 2010, Grupo de Comunicaciones de Alta Capacidad, S.A.P.I. de C.V. (GTAC) was granted a 20-year contract for the lease of a pair of dark fiber wires held by the Mexican Federal Electricity Commission and a concession to operate a public telecommunications network in Mexico with an expiration date in 2030. GTAC is a joint venture in which a subsidiary of the Company, a subsidiary of Grupo de Telecomunicaciones Mexicanas, S.A. de C.V. and a subsidiary of Megacable, S.A. de C.V. have an equal equity participation of 33.3%. GTAC started operations in the second half of 2011 and commercial services in the first quarter of 2012. In June 2010, a subsidiary of the Company entered into a long-term credit facility agreement to provide financing to GTAC for up to Ps.688,217, with an annual interest rate of the Mexican Interbank Interest Rate (Tasa de Interés Interbancaria de Equilibrio or TIIE) plus 200 basis points. Under the terms of this agreement, principal and interest are payable at dates agreed by the parties, between 2013 and 2021. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, GTAC had used a principal amount of Ps.618,683 and Ps.562,083, respectively, under this credit facility, with a related accrued interest receivable of Ps.114,491 and Ps.74,687, respectively. In the second half of 2013 GTAC paid interest to the Group in connection with this credit facility in the aggregate amount of Ps.84,577. In 2013, a subsidiary of the Company entered into a long-term credit facility agreement to provide additional financing to GTAC for up to U.S.$6.1 million (Ps.80,046), with an annual interest of TIIE plus 200 basis points. As of December 31, 2013, GTAC had used a principal amount of U.S.$5.9 million (Ps.77,359) under this additional credit facility, with a related accrued interest receivable of U.S.$0.3 million (Ps.3,668). The net investment in GTAC as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, included amounts receivable in connection with these credit facilities to GTAC in the aggregate amount of Ps.708,693 and Ps.648,720, respectively (see Note 14). |
(3) | The Group accounts for its 8% investment in common stock of BMP, the parent company of Univision, under the equity method due to the Groups ability to exercise significant influence over BMPs operations. The Group has determined it has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of BMP because as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Group (i) owned 842,850 Class C shares of common stock of BMP, representing 8% of the outstanding total shares of BMP as of each of those dates; (ii) held 1.5% Convertible Debentures due 2025 issued by BMP with interest payable on a quarterly basis, which can be converted into additional 4,858,485 shares (subject to adjustment as provided in the debentures) of common stock of BMP equivalent to approximately 30% equity stake of BMP on a fully-diluted, as-converted basis, at the option of the Group, subject to certain conditions and regulations; (iii) owned an option to acquire at fair value additional shares of common stock of BMP representing 2% of the outstanding total shares of BMP as of each of those dates, subject to certain conditions and regulations; (iv) had three of 20 designated members of the Board of Directors of BMP; and (v) had entered into program license agreements with Univision, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of BMP, through the later of 2025 or seven and one-half years after the Group has sold two-thirds of its initial investment in BMP. On January 30, 2014, a group of institutional investors made a capital contribution in BMP. As a result of this transaction, the Groups equity stake in BMP decreased from 8% to 7.8% (see Notes 3, 9, 14 and 19). |
(4) | OCEN is a majority-owned subsidiary of Corporación Interamericana de Entretenimiento, S.A. de C.V., and is engaged in the live entertainment business in Mexico. In 2011, OCEN paid dividends to the Group in the aggregate amount of Ps.64,960. The investment in OCEN included a goodwill of Ps.359,613 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 (see Note 19). |

During the fourth quarter of 2013, the Group monitored the market associated with its Publishing segment, which has experienced a general slow-down in Latin America. Accordingly, the Group reduced its cash flow expectations for some of its foreign operations. As a result, the Group compared the implied fair value of the goodwill and trademarks in the reporting units with the related carrying value and recorded an aggregate Ps.59,648 pre-tax impairment charge in other expense, net, in the consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2013.
The key assumptions used for fair value calculations of Goodwill and intangible assets in 2013 were as follows:

Interest on these Notes is payable semi-annually. The Company may, at its own option, redeem these Notes, in whole or in part, at any semi-annual interest payment date at a redemption price equal to the greater of the principal amount of the outstanding Notes and the present value of future cash flows, at the redemption date, of principal and interest amounts of the Notes discounted at a fixed rate of comparable Mexican sovereign bonds. The agreement of these Notes contains covenants that limit the ability of the Company and certain restricted subsidiaries appointed by the Companys Board of Directors, and engaged in the Groups Content segment, to incur or assume liens, perform sale and leaseback transactions, and consummate certain mergers, consolidations and similar transactions. |

(6) | Starting from the fourth quarter of 2012, Sky is obligated to pay a monthly fee of U.S.$3.0 million under a capital lease agreement entered into with Intelsat Global Sales & Marketing Ltd. (Intelsat) in March 2010 for satellite signal reception and retransmission service from 24 KU-band transponders on satellite IS-21, which became operational in October 2012.

The agreement provided that the service term for IS-9 was to end at the earlier of (a) the end of 15 years or (b) the date IS-9 is taken out of service. In 2010, Intelsat notified Sky that IS-9 experienced certain technical anomalies in its primary propulsion system, resulting in a shortened satellite life through 2012 instead of its original estimated life through 2015. Accordingly, Sky reduced the carrying value of the corresponding asset and the present value of the minimum payments in accordance with the related agreement and based on the remaining useful life of IS-9. The obligations of Sky under the IS-9 agreement were terminated in October 2012 (see Note 11). |

14. Financial Instruments
The Groups financial instruments presented in the consolidated statements of financial position included cash and cash equivalents, temporary investments, accounts and notes receivable, a long-term loan receivable from GTAC, convertible debentures issued by BMP with an option to convert these debentures into common stock of BMP, convertible debt instruments issued by Ares with an option to convert these instruments into common stock of Ares, debt securities classified as held-to-maturity investments, investments in securities in the form of an open-ended fund classified as available-for-sale investments, accounts payable, debt and derivative financial instruments. For cash and cash equivalents, temporary investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and short-term notes payable due to banks and other financial institutions, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. The fair value of the Groups long-term debt securities are based on quoted market prices.
The fair value of the long-term loans that the Group borrowed from leading Mexican banks (see Note 13) has been estimated using the borrowing rates currently available to the Group for bank loans with similar terms and average maturities. The fair value of held-to-maturity securities, available-for-sale investments, and currency option, interest rate swap and share put option agreements is based on quotes obtained from financial institutions.

(1) | Includes derivative financial instruments of Ps.3,447 that were classified in current assets in the consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2013. |
(a) | In order to reduce the adverse effects of exchange rates on the Senior Notes due 2032 and 2040, during 2013 and 2012, the Company entered into cross-currency interest rate swap agreements with various financial institutions that allow the Company to hedge against Mexican peso depreciation on interest payments to be made in 2014, and 2013. Under these transactions, the Company receives semi-annual payments based on the aggregate notional amount U.S.$300 million and U.S.$600 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, at an average annual rate of 8.50% and 6.6250%, respectively, and the Company makes semi-annual payments based on an aggregate notional amount of Ps.3,867,000 and Ps.7,644,600 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, at an average annual rate of 8.5028% and 6.5896%, respectively, without an exchange of the notional amount upon which the payments are based. As a result of the change in fair value of these transactions, in the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded a (loss) gain of Ps.(5,020) and Ps.41,336, respectively, relating to the interest rate swaps not recorded as accounting hedges, in consolidated finance expense, net (other finance expense), and as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company has recorded in consolidated equity, as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss attributable to stockholders of the Company, a cumulative gain for changes in fair value of Ps.2,266 and Ps.1,138, respectively, relating to interest rate swaps recorded as accounting hedges. |
(b) | In December 2006, Sky entered into a derivative transaction agreement from April 2009 through April 2016 to hedge the variable interest rate exposure resulting from a Mexican peso loan of a total principal amount of Ps.1,400,000. Under this transaction, Sky receives 28-day payments based on an aggregate notional amount of Ps.1,400,000 at an annual variable rate of TIIE+24 basis points and makes 28-day payments based on the same notional amount at an annual fixed rate of 8.415%. The Group recorded the change in fair value of this transaction as interest expense in consolidated other finance expense, net (see Note 13). |
(c) | In December 2012 and 2011, the Company entered into derivative agreements (knock-out option calls) with two financial institutions to reduce the adverse effect of exchange rates on the Senior Notes due 2018, 2025, 2032 and 2040, and hedge against severe Mexican peso depreciation on interest payments to be made in the second half of 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015. Under these transactions, the Company has the option to receive in 2012 and 2011 an aggregate amount of U.S.$135.0 million in exchange for an aggregate amount of Ps.2,497,500, and U.S.$337.5 million in exchange for aggregate amount of Ps.6,041,250, respectively, at maturity dates between July 2012, November 2014 and November 2015, only if the exchange rate of the Mexican peso during each agreement period is not above a limit agreed between the parties. If the exchange rate exceeds such limit at any time during the agreement period, the option is extinguished. The Company paid in 2012 and 2011 premiums for these agreements in the aggregate amount of U.S.$0.9 million (Ps.11,489) and U.S.$2.56 million (Ps.34,812), respectively. The Company recognized the change in fair value of this transaction as well as the related premium amortization in consolidated finance expense, net (other finance expense, net). |
(d) | In March 2011, the Company entered into a derivative transaction agreement (interest rate swap) from March 2011 through March 2018 to hedge the variable interest rate exposure resulting from a Mexican peso loan of a total principal amount of Ps.2,500,000. Under this transaction, the Company receives 28-day payments based on an aggregate notional amount of Ps.2,500,000 through September 2016, Ps.1,875,000 through March 2017, Ps.1,250,000 through September 2017, and Ps.625,000 through March 2018, at an annual variable rate of TIIE and makes 28-day payments based on the same notional amount at an annual fixed rate of 7.4325%. The Company recognized the change in fair value of this transaction in consolidated finance expense, net (other finance expense, net). |
(e) | In 2013 and 2012, TVI entered into a derivative transaction agreement (interest rate swap) with two financial institutions from January 2012 through April 2019 to hedge the variable interest rate exposure resulting from a Mexican peso loan of a total principal amount of Ps.500,000 and Ps.1,300,000, respectively.

Temporary Investments
Temporary investments include highly liquid securities, including without limitation debt with a maturity of three months, or over, and up to one year at the consolidated statement of financial position date, stock and other financial instruments, or a combination thereof, denominated principally in U.S. dollars and Mexican pesos (see Notes 2 (f) and 6).
Temporary investments are generally valued using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. The types of instruments valued based on quoted market prices in active markets include mostly fixed short-term deposits, equities and corporate fixed income securities denominated in U.S. dollars and Mexican pesos. Such instruments are classified in Level 1 or Level 2 depending on the observability of the significant inputs.
For positions that are not traded in active markets or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations are adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability. Such adjustments are generally based on available market evidence. Such instruments are classified in Level 2.
Available-for-Sale Financial Assets
Investments in debt securities or with readily determinable fair values, not classified as held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale, and are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in consolidated stockholders equity as accumulated other comprehensive result.
Available-for-sale financial assets are generally valued using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. Such instruments are classified in Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 depending on the observability of the significant inputs.
Available-for-Sale Investments Open Ended Fund
The Group has an investment in an open ended fund that has as a primary objective to achieve capital appreciation by using a broad range of strategies through investments and transactions in telecom, media and other sectors across global markets, including Latin America and other emerging markets. Shares may be redeemed on a quarterly basis at the NAV per share as of such redemption date (see Notes 4 and 9).

BMP Convertible Debentures due 2025
As described in Note 3, on December 20, 2010, the Company made a cash investments in the form of 1.5% Convertible Debentures due 2025 issued by BMP, the parent company of Univision, in the principal amount of U.S.$1,125 million (Ps.13,904,222), which are convertible at the Companys option into additional shares currently equivalent to approximately 30% equity stake of BMP, subject to existing laws and regulations in the United States, and other conditions (see Notes 4 and 9).
The Group determined the fair value of the Convertible Debentures using the income approach based on post-tax discounted cash flows. The income approach requires management to make judgments and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions include long-term growth rates and operating margins used to calculate projected future cash flows, risk-adjusted discount rates based on weighted average cost of capital within a range of 8% to 10%, among others. The Group´s estimates for market growth are based on historical data, various internal estimates and observable external sources when available, and are based on assumptions that are consistent with the strategic plans and estimates used to manage the underlying business. Since the described methodology is an internal model with significant unobservable inputs, the Convertible Debentures are classified in Level 3.
Ares Convertible and Long-term Debt Instruments
As described in Note 3, in July 2013, the Group made an investment in the amount of Ps.7,000,000 in convertible debt instruments which, subject to regulatory approvals, will allow the Group to acquire 95% of the equity interest of Ares, owner of 51% of the equity interest of Cablecom. In addition, as part of this transaction, the Group also invested in a long-term debt instrument issued by Ares in the amount of U.S.$195 million (Ps.2,549,625).
The Group determined the fair value of the convertible debt instruments using the expected present value valuation methodology based on post-tax discontinued cash flows. The expected present value methodology requires management to make judgments and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions include long-term growth rates, operating margins used to calculate projected future cash flow and risk-adjusted discount rates based on weighted average cost of capital within a range of 5.5% to 6.5%, among others. The Groups estimates for market growth are based on current conditions and reasonable forecasts, various internal estimates and observable external sources when available, and are based on assumptions that are consistent with the strategic plans and estimates used to manage the underlying business. Since the described methodology is an internal model with significant unobservable inputs, the convertible debt instruments are classified in level 3.
Derivative Financial Instruments
Derivative financial instruments include swaps, forwards and options (see Notes 2 (v), 4 and 14).
The Groups derivative portfolio is entirely over-the-counter (OTC). The Groups derivatives are valued using industry standard valuation models; projecting future cash flows discounted to present value, using market-based observable inputs including interest rate curves, foreign exchange rates, and forward and spot prices for currencies.
When appropriate, valuations are adjusted for various factors such as liquidity, bid/offer spreads and credit spreads considerations. Such adjustments are generally based on available market evidence. In the absence of such evidence, managements best estimate is used. All derivatives are classified in Level 2.
F-46
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
The majority of the Groups non-financial instruments, which include goodwill, intangible assets, inventories, transmission rights and programming and property, plant and equipment, are not required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis. However, if certain triggering events occur (or at least annually in the fourth quarter for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets) such that a non-financial instrument is required to be evaluated for impairment, a resulting asset impairment would require that the non-financial instrument be recorded at the lower of carrying amount or its fair value.
The impairment test for goodwill involves a comparison of the estimated fair value of each of the Groups reporting units to its carrying amount, including goodwill. The Group determines the fair value of a reporting unit using a combination of a discounted cash flow analysis and a market-based approach, which utilize significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) within the fair value hierarchy. The impairment test for intangible assets not subject to amortization involves a comparison of the estimated fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying value. The Group determines the fair value of the intangible asset using a discounted cash flow analysis, which utilizes significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) within the fair value hierarchy. Determining fair value requires the exercise of significant judgment, including judgment about appropriate discount rates, perpetual growth rates, the amount and timing of expected future cash flows for a period of time that comprise five years, as well as relevant comparable company earnings multiples for the market-based approach.
Once an asset has been impaired, it is not remeasured at fair value on a recurring basis; however, it is still subject to fair value measurements to test for recoverability of the carrying amount.
15. Post-employment Benefits
Certain companies in the Group have collective bargaining contracts which include defined benefit pension plans and other retirement benefits for substantially all of their employees. Additionally, the Group has defined benefit pension plans for certain eligible executives and employees. All pension benefits are based on salary and years of service rendered.
Under the provisions of the Mexican labor law, seniority premiums are payable based on salary and years of service to employees who resign or are terminated prior to reaching retirement age. Some companies in the Group have seniority premium benefits which are greater than the legal requirement. After retirement age employees are no longer eligible for seniority premiums.
Post-employment benefits are actuarially determined by using nominal assumptions and attributing the present value of all future expected benefits proportionately over each year from date of hire to age 65. The Group used a 7.0% and 7.2% discount rate and 5.0% and 5.0% salary scale for 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Group used a 7.0% and 6.5% return on assets rate for 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Group used a 3.5% inflation rate for 2013 and 2012. The Group makes voluntary contributions from time to time to trusts for the pension and seniority premium plans which are generally deductible for tax purposes. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, plan assets were invested in a portfolio that primarily consisted of debt and equity securities, including shares of the Company. Pension and seniority premium benefits are paid when they become due.

Pension and Seniority Premium Plan Assets
The plan assets are invested according to specific investment guidelines determined by the technical committees of the pension plan and seniority premiums trusts and in accordance with actuarial computations of funding requirements. These investment guidelines require a minimum investment of 30% of the plan assets in fixed rate instruments, or mutual funds comprised of fixed rate instruments. The plan assets that are invested in mutual funds are all rated AA or AAA by at least one of the main rating agencies. These mutual funds vary in liquidity characteristics ranging from one day to one month. The investment goals of the plan assets are to preserve principal, diversify the portfolio, maintain a high degree of liquidity and credit quality, and deliver competitive returns subject to prevailing market conditions. Currently, the plan assets do not engage in the use of financial derivative instruments. The Groups target allocation in the foreseeable future is to maintain approximately 20% in equity securities and 80% in fixed rate instruments.
The weighted average asset allocation by asset category as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, was as follows:
2013 | 2012 | |||||||
Equity securities (1) |
26.1 | % | 24.4 | % | ||||
Fixed rate instruments |
73.9 | % | 75.6 | % | ||||

(1) | Included within plan assets at December 31, 2013 and 2012, are shares of the Company held by the trust with a fair value of Ps.247,082 and Ps.208,749, respectively. |
F-49
The weighted average expected long-term rate of return of plan assets of 7.0% and 7.2% were used in determining net periodic pension cost in 2013 and 2012, respectively. The rate used in 2012 reflected an estimate of long-term future returns for the plan assets. This estimate was primarily a function of the asset classes (equities versus fixed income) in which the plan assets were invested and the analysis of past performance of these asset classes over a long period of time. This analysis included expected long-term inflation and the risk premiums associated with equity investments and fixed income investments.

Stock Purchase Plan
The Company has adopted a Stock Purchase Plan (the Plan) that provides, in conjunction with the Long-term Retention Plan described below, for the conditional sales of up to 8% of the Companys capital stock to key Group employees. Pursuant to this Plan, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had assigned approximately 125.7 million CPOs, at sale prices that range from Ps.11.21 to Ps.26.16 per CPO, subject to certain conditions, including vesting periods within five years from the time the awards are granted. The shares sold pursuant to the Plan, some of which have been registered pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act of 1933 of the United States, as amended, can only be transferred to the plan participants when the conditions set forth in the Plan and the related agreements are satisfied.
In January 2013, 2012 and 2011, 2.7 million CPOs, 2.8 million CPOs and 2.7 million CPOs, respectively, were vested and transferred to participants to be paid pursuant to this Plan.

In accordance with Mexican law, the legal reserve must be increased by 5% of annual net profits until it reaches 20% of the capital stock amount. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Companys legal reserve amounted to Ps.2,139,007 and Ps.2,139,007, respectively and was classified into retained earnings in consolidated equity. As the legal reserve reached 20% of the capital stock amount, no additional increases were required in 2013, 2012 and 2011. This reserve is not available for dividends, but may be used to reduce a deficit or may be transferred to stated capital. Other appropriations of profits require the vote of the Companys stockholders.

In April 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company´s stockholders approved the payment of a dividend of Ps.0.35 per CPO and Ps.0.002991452991 per share of Series A, B, D and L Shares, not in the form of a CPO, which was paid in cash in May 2013, 2012 and 2011, in the aggregate amount of Ps.1,084,192, Ps.1,002,692 and Ps.1,023,012, respectively (see Note 16).
In December 2013, the Companys stockholders approved the payment of a dividend of Ps.0.35 per CPO and Ps.0.002991452991 per share of Series A, B, D and L Shares, not in the form of a CPO, which was paid in cash in December 2013 in the aggregate amount of Ps.1,084,192 (see Note 16).
Dividends, either in cash or in other forms, paid by the Mexican companies in the Group will be subject to income tax if the dividends are paid from earnings that have not been subject to Mexican income tax computed on an individual company basis under the provisions of the Mexican Income Tax Law. In this case, dividends will be taxable by multiplying such dividends by a 1.4286 factor and applying to the resulting amount the income tax rate of 30%. This income tax will be paid by the company paying the dividends.
In addition, the 2014 Tax Reform sets forth that entities that distribute dividends to its stockholders who are individuals or foreign residents must withhold 10% thereof for income tax purposes, which will be paid in Mexico. The foregoing will not be applicable when distributed dividends arise from the taxed net earnings account computed on an individual company basis generated through December 31, 2013.
As of December 31, 2013, cumulative earnings that have been subject to income tax and can be distributed by the Company free of Mexican income tax were approximately Ps.54,181,190.

The Mexican corporate income tax rate was 30% in 2013, 2012 and 2011. In accordance with the 2014 Tax Reform, the corporate income tax rate will be 30% in 2014 and thereafter.
2014 Tax Reform
In the last quarter of 2013, the Mexican Congress enacted a new Tax Reform (the 2014 Tax Reform), which became effective as of January 1, 2014. Among the tax reforms approved by the Mexican Congress, one of the most relevant changes was the elimination of the tax consolidation regime allowed for Mexican controlling companies through December 31, 2013.
As a result of this change, beginning on January 1, 2014, the Company is no longer allowed to consolidate income or loss of its Mexican subsidiaries for income tax purposes and (i) accounted for an additional income tax liability for the elimination of the tax consolidation regime in the aggregate amount of Ps.6,813,595 as of December 31, 2013, of which Ps.6,629,865 was classified as non-current liabilities as of that date; (ii) recognized a benefit from tax loss carryforwards of Mexican companies in the Group in the aggregate amount of Ps.7,936,044 as of December 31, 2013; and (iii) adjusted the carrying amount of deferred income taxes from temporary differences by recognizing such effects on a separate company basis by using the enacted corporate income tax rate as of December 31, 2013.
2010 Tax Reform
In December 2009, the Mexican government enacted certain amendments and changes to the Mexican Income Tax Law that became effective as of January 1, 2010 (the 2010 Mexican Tax Reform). These amendments and changes included, among other, the following provisions: (i) under certain circumstances, the deferred income tax benefit derived from tax consolidation of a parent company and its subsidiaries is limited to a period of five years; therefore, the resulting deferred income tax has to be paid starting in the sixth year following the fiscal year in which the deferred income tax benefit was received; and (ii) the payment of this tax has to be made in installments of 25% in the first and second year, 20% in the third year and 15% in the fourth and fifth year.
The effects of income tax payable as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, in connection with the 2010 Mexican Tax Reform, are as follows:

IETU
Through December 31, 2013, Mexican companies were subject to paying the greater of the Flat Rate Business Tax (Impuesto Empresarial a Tasa Única or IETU) or the income tax. As part of the 2014 Tax Reform, the IETU was eliminated for Mexican companies beginning on January 1, 2014. The IETU was calculated by applying a tax rate of 17.5%. Although the IETU was defined as a minimum tax, it had a wider taxable base as some of the tax deductions allowed for income tax purposes were not allowed for the IETU. Through December 31, 2013, the Company paid primarily regular income tax on a tax consolidated basis.

25. Segment Information
Reportable segments are those that are based on the Groups method of internal reporting.
The Group is organized on the basis of services and products. The Groups segments are strategic business units that offer different entertainment services and products. The Groups reportable segments are as follows:
Content
At the beginning of 2012, the Group adjusted its segment reporting. Beginning in the first quarter of 2012, the business activities of Television Broadcasting, Pay Television Networks and Programming Exports, which were previously reported as separate reportable segments, and the Internet business, which was previously reported as part of the Other Businesses segment, are reported as a single segment, Content. The new Content segment categorizes the Groups sources of content revenue as follows: (a) Advertising; (b) Network Subscription Revenue; and (c) Licensing and Syndication. Given the cost structure of the Groups Content business, operating segment income is reported as a single line item.
The Advertising revenue is derived primarily from the sale of advertising time on the Groups television broadcast operations, which include the production of television programming and nationwide broadcasting of Channels 2, 4, 5 and 9 (television networks), as well as the sale of advertising time on programs provided to pay television companies in Mexico and advertising revenue in the Groups Internet business and the production of television programming and broadcasting for local television stations in Mexico and the United States. The broadcasting of television networks is performed by television repeater stations in Mexico which are wholly-owned, majority-owned or minority-owned by the Group or otherwise affiliated with the Groups networks.
The Network Subscription revenue is derived from domestic and international programming services provided to independent cable television systems in Mexico and the Groups direct-to-home (DTH) satellite and cable television businesses. These programming services for cable and pay-per-view television companies are provided in Mexico, other countries in Latin America, the United States and Europe. The programming services consist of both programming produced by the Group and programming produced by others.
The Licensing and Syndication revenue is derived from international program licensing and syndication fees. The Groups television programming is licensed and syndicated to customers abroad, including Univision.
Publishing
The Publishing segment primarily consists of publishing Spanish-language magazines in Mexico, the United States and Latin America. Publishing revenues include subscriptions, sales of advertising space and magazine sales to distributors.
Sky
The Sky segment includes DTH broadcast satellite pay television services in Mexico, Central America and the Dominican Republic. Sky revenues are primarily derived from program services, installation fees and equipment rental to subscribers, and national advertising sales.
Telecommunications
The Telecommunications segment includes the operation of a telecommunication system in the Mexico City metropolitan area (Cablevisión); the operation of telecommunication facilities through a fiber-optic network that covers the most important cities and economic regions of Mexico and the cities of San Antonio and San Diego in the United States (Bestel); the operation of telecommunication networks covering 50 cities of Mexico (Cablemás); and the operation of telecommunications networks covering Monterrey and suburban areas (Cablevisión). The telecommunication businesses derive revenues from cable subscribers, principally from basic and premium television services subscription, pay-per-view fees, installation fees, Internet services subscription and telephone services subscription as well as from local and national advertising sales.
Also, the telecommunication facilities business derives revenues from providing data and long-distance services solutions to carriers and other telecommunications service providers through its fiber-optic network.
F-64
Other Businesses
The Other Businesses segment includes the Groups domestic operations in sports and show business promotion, soccer, feature film production and distribution, gaming, radio, and publishing distribution.

Telecom Reform
On June 12, 2013 a decree amending and supplementing certain articles of the Mexican Constitution in telecommunications matters (the Telecom Reform) came into force. On March 24, 2014, the Mexican President sent to the Senate of the Mexican Federal Congress the Initiative Decree that amends, supplements and repeals certain provisions relating to television and broadcasting (the Secondary Legislation). On February 27, 2014, the General Guidelines Regarding the Provisions of Section 1 of the Eight Article of the Transitory Decree Amending and Supplementing a Number of Provisions of Articles 6, 7, 27, 28, 73, 78, 94 and 105 of the Mexican Constitution in Telecommunications or the Guidelines, were published in the Official Gazette of the Federation, which among other adverse effects, may result in additional costs to the Companys pay-TV subsidiaries.
On March 6, 2014, the Instituto Federal de Telecomunicaciones (IFT) issued a decision (the Preponderance Decision) whereby it determined that the Company, together with certain subsidiaries with concessions to provide broadcast television, are preponderant economic agents in the broadcasting sector in Mexico (together, the Preponderant Economic Agent). The Preponderance Decision imposes on the Preponderant Economic Agent various measures, terms, conditions and restrictive obligations, some of which may adversely affect the activities and businesses of the Companys broadcasting businesses, as well as their results of operations and financial condition.
The Telecom Reform, the Secondary Legislation, secondary regulations that the President or IFT may issue, and certain actions recently taken by IFT affect or may adversely affect the business, results of operations and financial position of certain of the Companys subsidiaries that provide services in the areas of broadcasting and telecommunications. The Company will continue to analyze and evaluate on an ongoing basis, the impact that the Telecom Reform, the Secondary Legislation, secondary regulations, and the actions taken and to be taken by IFT may have upon it and its subsidiaries.
On March 28, 2014, the Company together with the subsidiaries determined to be Preponderant Economic Agent, filed an amparo proceeding challenging the constitutionality of the Preponderance Decision. There can be no assurance that the outcome of such procedure would be favorable to the Company and its subsidiaries.
