Viaplay drives 2015 growth as MTG continues digital transformation strategyFebruary 03, 2016Swedish media business Modern Times Group (MTG) experienced its best quarterly growth in Nordic premium TV subscribers in six years in Q4 2015, despite the continued decline of its Viasat satellite subscriber base. Premium subscribers totalled 996,000 at the end of 2015, up 24,000 on Q3 2015. This was driven by an increase in the number of subscribers taking premium services via third-party networks, up 37,000 during the quarter, more than compensating for the 14,000 decrease in DTH customers. MTG has not disclosed subscriber figures for its OTT service Viaplay, but it singled it out as the key driver towards 3% growth in total Nordic pay TV net sales, which reached Skr 5,926 million (€633 million) for the full year.
