The company reported net sales of Rs 510.7crs, marginal growth of 3.6% YoY. EBITDA stood at Rs 56.5crs, a sharp decline of 20.7%. Higher newsprint cost and increase in employee expenses eroded EBITDA margins by 330bps to 11.1%. Net profit for the quarter was Rs 33.3crs, lower by 24% over Q2FY12. Net profit margin for the quarter was 6.5%, down by 240bps YoY. Q2FY13 witnessed pressure on ad spends from major sectors of ad pie National advertising remained subdued. The impact was partially mitigated by strong growth in local advertising. The management expects things to improve in Q3FY13 being festive season.
