Companies

A media group headquartered in Madrid

Atresmedia is a Spanish media group whose parent company is Atresmedia Corporación de Medios de Comunicación, S.A. Its registered and tax office is at Avenida Isla Graciosa 13, San Sebastián de los Reyes, Madrid. The listed company, consolidated group and audiovisual brands have different scopes: Antena 3 and laSexta identify channels, while Uniprex is a radio operating company. Unless otherwise stated, the financial figures in this profile concern the 2025 consolidated group. Channel or subsidiary sales should not be added to that total as if they represented further independent businesses.

Atresmedia: 2025 separate and consolidated annual accounts, PDF p. 112.

From the private television project to broadcasting in 1990

Antena 3’s published history traces the project back to 1980 and identifies Javier de Godó and Manuel Martín Ferrand among its promoters, alongside Rafael and Manuel Jiménez de Parga. That phase should be distinguished from incorporation of the listed company: the accounts establish that Antena 3 de Televisión, S.A. was incorporated on 7 June 1988. The television concession followed in August 1989 and regular broadcasts began on 25 January 1990. The business project, legal incorporation and start of broadcasting are separate milestones, rather than interchangeable dates for the present group.

Listing, the laSexta merger and diversification

The shares began trading on the Spanish stock exchanges on 29 October 2003. The absorption of Gestora de Inversiones Audiovisuales La Sexta was registered on 30 October 2012; the parent adopted its current name in 2013. Subsequent expansion combines content, digital advertising and other services. On 17 July 2025, Atres Advertising acquired 75% of Last Lap and agreed options over the remainder; the accounts explain the accounting treatment of the fully committed interest and consolidation from the date control was obtained. Bringing this events agency into the group also changes the scope of workforce and prevention reporting.

Ownership: dated figures and direct shareholders

The parent’s separate accounts record Grupo Pasa Cartera, S.A.U. with 41.70% and Ufa Film und Fernseh GmbH with 15.10% of capital at year-end 2025; treasury shares account for 0.25% and other shareholders for 42.95%. The board page identifies Pasa Cartera with Grupo Planeta de Agostini and UFA with RTL Group. These percentages carry their accounting date and are not a real-time reading of all voting rights. Being a reference shareholder does not itself mean complete ownership: Atresmedia remains a listed company with other investors.

Atresmedia: 2025 separate and consolidated annual accounts, PDF p. 60; Atresmedia: board of directors and committees.

Management and corporate responsibilities

Checked on 8 November 2026, the board identifies José Creuheras Margenat as chairman, Silvio González Moreno as executive vice chairman and Javier Bardají Hernando as chief executive officer. The management team lists Patricia Pérez as corporate general manager, Jaime Gutiérrez-Colomer in management and transformation, and Fernando Costi as finance director. This structure has a specific connection with occupational safety and health: the shared prevention service reports to the Corporate General Directorate, which approves the annual prevention plan and participates in monitoring it. The documented preventive responsibilities concern that system and its participating companies.

Content, audiences and sales

The model combines content production and acquisition, audiovisual distribution and advertising sales. The 2025 accounts distinguish two operating segments, Audiovisual and Radio: the same content can generate advertising revenue or be sold and distributed through different outlets, with shared costs. Atres Advertising sells space in group and third-party media and organises events; Uniprex operates the radio networks. Advertising sales in the revenue note amount to €701.023 million before the separately presented discounts. This structure explains the role of advertisers, agencies, production companies, distributors and technical suppliers in its value chain.

For internal digitalisation, the 2025 report documents the launch of Campus a3mia to centralise training and digitise registration and signatures. Artificial intelligence training for different roles features among the subjects taught. These are capability development and management activities; the source does not establish a quantified improvement in productivity or occupational safety attributable to them.

Television, radio and video on demand

The Spanish television portfolio described in the 2025 accounts comprises Antena 3, laSexta, Neox, Nova, Mega and Atreseries. Uniprex broadcasts Onda Cero, Europa FM and Melodía FM on radio. Atresplayer provides digital on-demand distribution, while Antena 3 Internacional, Atreseries and ¡HOLA! TV feature in the parent’s description of distribution outside Spain. These brands and distribution routes coexist with production, broadcasting rights and content sales. A channel name does not necessarily identify a separate legal company, and a brand’s presence in another country does not establish that the group has its own workforce or workplace there.

Atresmedia: 2025 separate and consolidated annual accounts, PDF p. 112.

2025 financial scale and geographical scope

Consolidated net turnover for 2025 was €893.745 million, compared with €918.954 million in 2024. The accounts separately record other operating income of €108.486 million; the two lines sum to €1,002.231 million, so that total should not be labelled as the same net-turnover accounting line. Consolidated profit for the year was €62.066 million and profit attributable to the parent was €62.107 million. The geographical note divides net turnover into €852.185 million from the domestic market and €41.560 million internationally. These are full-year figures, expressed here in millions of euros, from consolidated accounts audited by KPMG.

Workforce and employment changes

The consolidated accounts record 2,639 employees at year-end 2025 and an annual average of 2,647; these are headcounts rather than full-time equivalents. The sustainability report uses a different workforce scope: it includes Fundación Atresmedia and excludes executive directors, unlike the accounts, reporting 2,643 employees in Spain and Portugal. The group also documents a voluntary incentivised departure plan taken up by 134 employees; this is not described as compulsory collective redundancy. On employment matters, the non-financial report records six complaints relating to discrimination or harassment investigated in 2025: receipt of a complaint does not establish that the alleged conduct occurred.

Completed changes in 2026: AMVIA and Fever

The January–September 2026 update confirms that Atresmedia completed its acquisition of 100% of AMVIA, formerly Clear Channel España, on 4 August and consolidated its results from 5 August. The transaction adds outdoor advertising and extends the group’s diversification; its first two consolidated months are not a complete financial year. On 15 September 2026, the group also completed the sale of its entire remaining interest in Fever Labs. AMVIA should therefore no longer be described as a pending purchase, nor Fever as a retained holding. These subsequent transactions are not retrospectively included in the 2025 financial or prevention indicators.

Atresmedia: January–September 2026 results, 22 October 2026.

OSH: policy, planning and worker participation

The Safety and Health Policy was updated and approved by the chief executive in 2025 following consultation and participation by worker safety representatives. The shared prevention service prepares an annual plan agreed with worker representatives and approved by the Corporate General Directorate. The report describes quarterly monitoring and quarterly meetings with the health and safety committees of eight companies; companies without worker safety representatives held twice-yearly meetings. These are documented company procedures with named responsibilities and intervals. Last Lap, incorporated into the group in July 2025, retains its own prevention system, so the shared service’s arrangements should not automatically be attributed to its entire organisation.

Risk assessment and working conditions

The non-financial report identifies particular risks in jobs involving work at height, falls between levels, thermal stress or night shifts. Their inclusion does not establish that accidents occurred: they are exposures recognised in the company’s analysis. In 2025 the shared service updated workplace assessments for three companies following substantial works at two and relocation at the third. It also documents annual checks of environmental conditions at the San Sebastián de los Reyes headquarters and other workplaces. Assessments are reviewed before the scheduled interval when circumstances require it. This evidence links prevention to actual changes in premises and tasks without treating potential risks as realised harm.

Psychosocial assessment at two companies

A psychosocial assessment was carried out in 2025 covering a workforce of 499 at Antena 3 Multimedia and 6&M Producciones y Contenidos Audiovisuales. The report identifies FPSICO 4.1, a voluntary confidential questionnaire and subsequent individual interviews. It states that the findings formed the basis of an action plan with preventive measures. The figure of 499 describes the workforce within the assessment’s scope; it is not presented here as the number of completed questionnaires. No individual clinical findings or quantified improvement in mental health are reported here. The available evidence establishes the declared process and its link with planning, rather than measured effectiveness of each intervention.

Atresmedia: 2025 non-financial and sustainability report, PDF p. 115; Atresmedia: 2025 non-financial and sustainability report, PDF p. 121.

Health surveillance, training and emergencies

The annual employee health surveillance campaign took place in the last quarter of 2025. According to the report, the San Sebastián de los Reyes headquarters has an ongoing outsourced medical service. Documented prevention training includes induction for new employees at companies participating in the shared service, basic training for new worker safety representatives, and first aid, basic life support and semi-automatic defibrillation. Annual defibrillator maintenance complements these activities. These disclosures identify specific activities and resources; the group’s general training hours are not reclassified as occupational safety training, and the existence of a campaign does not by itself establish a health outcome.

Atresmedia: 2025 non-financial and sustainability report, PDF p. 121; Atresmedia: 2025 non-financial and sustainability report, PDF p. 122.

Production companies and external services: prevention coordination

Atresmedia describes business activity coordination for companies participating in the shared prevention service, covering contractors and temporary employment agencies. It supplies information about site hazards, preventive measures and emergencies; requested documents include worker lists, risk assessments, prevention plans and training certificates for the planned tasks. The report also describes meetings with auxiliary service providers and inspections of their working conditions. Production companies working outside its premises without group personnel must certify compliance with applicable preventive measures. These different situations matter: a clause or certificate does not establish that every production or the entire value chain has been audited in person.

Atresmedia: 2025 non-financial and sustainability report, PDF p. 138; Atresmedia: 2025 non-financial and sustainability report, PDF p. 139; Atresmedia: 2025 non-financial and sustainability report, PDF p. 140; Atresmedia: 2025 non-financial and sustainability report, PDF p. 141.

2025 accidents: two scopes and an explicit definition

The non-financial report declares 35 occupational accidents in 2025 for companies within the shared prevention system, with zero fatalities from work-related injuries and health problems in that scope. Its methodological note includes all accidents notified to the mutual insurer: with and without time off, including both commuting and non-commuting events. The figure of 35 therefore does not mean lost-time accidents occurring exclusively on company premises. Last Lap separately reports two accidents and no work-related accident fatalities in the second half of the year. The series are not merged or extrapolated to contractors. The published rates have units and denominators requiring clarification before comparison; this profile retains the counts and their limits without recalculating its own indicators.

Atresmedia: 2025 non-financial and sustainability report, PDF p. 130.

Audits, certification and planned activities

The 2025 report states that a voluntary external audit by Audelco enabled the described system to retain ISO 45001 certification. It separately identifies statutory audits at Atresmedia Corporación, Antena 3 Noticias, Uniprex, Atres Advertising and Antena 3 Multimedia. This dated statement does not replace a full certificate listing entities, sites and validity dates; universal certification current in November 2026 is not asserted. Certification renewal, further psychosocial assessments, broadcasting-site reviews and prevention training were announced for 2026. The report establishes that these were planned, rather than proving completion of every activity. KPMG’s limited assurance over the sustainability report likewise does not individually certify each workplace or the outcome of every measure.

Audiovisual regulation and documented proceedings

The business operates under requirements concerning advertising competition, content and protection of minors. In November 2019, the CNMC penalised Atresmedia Corporación and Atres Advertising over television advertising sales practices. The 2025 accounts record a €38,246,520 fine, the appeal filed in 2020 and interim suspension of payment against a guarantee; they also describe a stay of the court proceedings ordered in December 2025. This is the position reported when the accounts were prepared in February 2026, rather than a subsequent final judgment. In a separate case concerning violent content broadcast on Al Rojo Vivo, the decision of 30 April 2025 closed the administrative proceedings following early payment: an initial €221,155 penalty became €176,924. The reduced payment is not described as an express admission of liability, which the decision states did not occur.

Frequently asked questions

Are Atresmedia and Antena 3 the same entity?

Atresmedia identifies the group whose listed parent is Atresmedia Corporación de Medios de Comunicación, S.A. Antena 3 is one of its channels. The parent was named Antena 3 de Televisión, S.A. until 2013, explaining the historical relationship between the names. Consolidated figures include activities beyond that channel. [1]

When did it begin and who promoted the project?

Antena 3’s history traces the project to 1980 and names Javier de Godó, Manuel Martín Ferrand, and Rafael and Manuel Jiménez de Parga. The accounts date incorporation of the parent to 7 June 1988. Antena 3’s regular broadcasts began on 25 January 1990. These dates refer to different stages. [1] · [2]

Why are there two revenue figures for 2025?

The consolidated accounts distinguish €893.745 million of net turnover from €108.486 million of other operating income. Together they total €1,002.231 million. This profile uses the first accounting line as its turnover metric and explains the second to avoid mixing concepts. Both relate to the full 2025 financial year. [1]

Has the AMVIA acquisition been completed?

Yes. The results release dated 22 October 2026 confirms completion of the acquisition of 100% of AMVIA, formerly Clear Channel España, on 4 August and consolidation from 5 August. It also confirms the sale of the remaining Fever Labs interest on 15 September. Neither transaction retrospectively changes the 2025 indicators. [1]

Which company-specific OSH activities are documented?

The 2025 non-financial report documents prevention planning and committee participation, updated workplace assessments, FPSICO 4.1 at Antena 3 Multimedia and 6&M, health surveillance, first-aid training and contractor coordination. It identifies responsibilities and scopes. Last Lap retains its own system; identical activities or unmeasured effectiveness are not attributed to every company. [1]

How should the accident and certification disclosures be read?

The shared system’s 35 accidents in 2025 include events with and without time off and commuting accidents. Last Lap reports two separate accidents for the second half. These series cannot be compared without their methodology. The report states that ISO 45001 was maintained following an Audelco audit in 2025, but a full certificate establishing every site and validity in November 2026 was not obtained. [1]
