Advertising growth remains key
H116 group revenues were slightly ahead of the prior year in both US dollar and euro terms, helped by continued growth in artnet News, where revenues were up 17% despite weaker Q2 advertising performance. Reduced losses from Auctions and the benefit of lower costs within the Price Database segment helped drive an 11% uplift in group contribution margin, partially offset by increased central expenses. Stronger operating cash flow drove higher net cash, which at end June was €0.9m, from €0.5m at the year-end. Our FY16e and FY17e forecasts are unchanged.Artnet is engaged in the business which provides art collectors, galleries, publishers, auction houses, and art enthusiasts with a website where individuals can research artists and art prices, and find artworks that are available in artnet Galleries or on artnet Auctions. Co. operates within four segments: the artnet Galleries, which presents artwork from member galleries' online; the artnet Price Database, which comprises all database-related products; artnet Advertising, which produces banner as well as national and international advertising on the website; and artnet Auctions, which provides a platform to buy and sell artworks online.
