RNS from ITV this morning:-


ITV and BBC to Launch Freesat

RNS Number:9337Q
ITV PLC
07 September 2005


ITV ANNOUNCES NEW DIGITAL MOVES

ITV & BBC TO LAUNCH FREESAT

ITV today announced a new service that will further strengthen its position in
the digital environment.

ITV and the BBC are working together to develop a new free digital satellite
service - project title "Freesat" - to complement the hugely popular Freeview
service.

Freesat will enable viewers to access subscription-free digital television via
satellite and will be aimed primarily at people in the UK currently unable to
access Freeview.

As part of the development of Freesat, ITV is also announcing that it intends to
start broadcasting ITV channels unencrypted - 'in the clear' - within the next
few months on digital satellite television. ITV has consulted all relevant
rights holders.

The free satellite service will initially carry all ITV and BBC free-to-view
digital services including digital television, digital radio, electronic
programme guide, and interactive services, in addition to dozens of other
free-to-air channels. The project aims to be operational within the first half
of 2006.

Charles Allen, Chief Executive of ITV said:

"As the UK's largest and most popular commercial broadcaster we want our
channels to be available to as many people as possible, regardless of
technological and geographical constraints. As we move from an analogue to a
digital environment, Freesat - and Freeview - will enable every family in the UK
to enjoy a wide range of quality channels for free.

"Today's announcement significantly strengthens ITV's digital presence and we
are delighted to be taking a leading role in the marketing and development of
free digital television."

As ITV published strong financial results, the company also announced a new
mobile portal and broadband trial, developed by ITV's Consumer Division (ITVC)
to help grow consumer revenue outside free-to-air advertising.

ITV MOBILE

ITV Mobile will work on all WAP enabled phones, giving it almost complete market
penetration. The first phase, launched today, will allow consumers to:

* Get highlights or made-for-mobile footage from their favourite shows such
as This Morning, Coronation Street, and I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here!
* Get the latest on ITV's soaps and dramas and keep up with showbiz news and
gossip
* Get up to date news, sport and weather and sign up for alerts
* Enter exclusive competitions to win fantastic prizes
* Get the latest games, ringtones and wallpapers to customise their mobile
* Plan their viewing with a complete TV guide on their mobile and never miss
their favourite show with a TV reminder service.

The second phase, which is planned for January 2006, will contain services such
as unique video content. The mobile service will be backed by a widespread
consumer marketing campaign later this Autumn.

ITV LOCAL

ITV is a trial broadband service due to commence in the next few weeks. It will
offer a local television interface for viewers in the Brighton and Hastings
areas. It will contain local news and weather, community activities, travel and
property advertising and ITV entertainment content. As a commercial service it
will also offer advertising for local businesses as well as local classified
ads.

Jeff Henry, Chief Executive of ITVC, said.

"These two initiatives demonstrate the strength of ITV at both a macro and micro
level. Twenty years ago the level of TV interaction with viewers was - 'send us
an answer on a postcard' - today we are able to capitalise on the technological
developments of digital television and other devices.

"Our new mobile portal and our broadband trials demonstrate that ITV has a clear
vision and strategy to deliver commercially focused applications to consumers."

Big sell gone through

mactavish - 07 Sep 2005 16:44 - 2570 of 3776

It was a T trade - it could be a buy that has been worked through the day.

mactavish - 07 Sep 2005 16:44 - 2571 of 3776

Very easily could have been a buy, were buying this morning early on @ 10.68p

skids - 07 Sep 2005 18:25 - 2572 of 3776

last years mid results were release on 29th Sept (I think), so perhaps we will see the results soon. although no announcement yet.

iturama - 08 Sep 2005 08:46 - 2575 of 3776

Very positive. We could well see 12p on the offer today.

willfagg - 08 Sep 2005 09:06 - 2576 of 3776

What does anyone think is behind recent movement? There has been no significant news, is it just the run up to their results and everyone feeling positive about them?Have they suddenly been upgraded to abuy by several pundits?IC and Shares mag seem to have gone quiet on them.

TANKER - 08 Sep 2005 10:14 - 2577 of 3776

must be ready for good jump

hewittalan6 - 08 Sep 2005 10:15 - 2578 of 3776

I always am, Tanker!!!

paulmasterson1 - 08 Sep 2005 10:22 - 2579 of 3776


iturama Hi,

Run up to the results, everyone expecting a cash-flow positive statement, that will put them through 15p maybe 20p, so the MM's want to build the price towards that, to give the stock a bit of support, rather than let it see a massive spike.

Results or the gist of them, may have been leaked already, causing the buying. Possibly a few pro investors or funds/insti's accumulating stock for the future.

Suffice to say, that the buying is showing no signs of stopping yet :)

Cheers,
PM

skids - 08 Sep 2005 10:57 - 2580 of 3776

"Results or the gist of them, may have been leaked already"... that would be illegal !

lol

paulmasterson1 - 08 Sep 2005 11:32 - 2581 of 3776


Skids Hi,

Just like the Helphire trading update of today .... was leaked days ago .... and was even reported as a 'rumour' by the press .... LOL !

Cheers,
PM

jimwren - 08 Sep 2005 12:06 - 2582 of 3776

Wouldn't be surprised - massive number of buys going through. At noon buy/sell ratio approaching 12:1

mactavish - 08 Sep 2005 12:11 - 2583 of 3776

300k delayed buy @ 12p, 0.25p over offer.

paulmasterson1 - 08 Sep 2005 13:00 - 2584 of 3776
