Underlying analysis

Revenues

Underlying results are adjusted for constant exchange rates, the exclusion of disposals and closures and for the inclusion of the year-on-year organic growth from acquisitions.

For events, the comparisons are between events held in the year and the same events held the previous time. For dmg media, underlying revenues exclude the benefit to FY 2016 results of an additional 53rd week and low margin newsprint resale activities.

Amounts are stated rounded to the nearest £1m, consequently totals may not equal the sum of the component integers.

Intangible Assets

Goodwill ¹ Acquired ²Internally

Generated ³Total

¹ Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the Group’s interest in the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the target entity recognised at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not amortised, but is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. ² Intangible assets recognised on acquisition include publishing rights, brands, market and customer databases, customer relationships and computer software licenses.³ Internally generated intangible assets arise from the Group’s development activity, including software for internal use.

Goodwill & Intangible assets: Movements

67

¹ Amortisation of intangible assets is charged over the estimated useful life of the asset. For internally generated assets the useful life is typically 3-5 years. For acquired assets the useful life varies: publishing rights 5-30 years, brands 3-20 years, market & customer databases 3-20 years, customer relationships 3-20 years, computer software licenses 2-5 years. The £50m amortisation charge in respect of acquired intangible assets shown on slide 31 includes DMGT’s £18m share from JV’s and Associates, whereas the figures shown in the table above exclude the share from JV’s and Associates.² The £213m impairment of goodwill and intangible assets relates to dmg information, notably Genscape, Xceligent and SiteCompli.

Operating profit is stated before exceptional items, other gains and losses, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, amortisation of intangible assets arising on business combinations, pension finance charges and fair value adjustments. These adjusted results include results from discontinued operations, specifically the Euromoney subsidiary.

Percentages are calculated on actual numbers to one decimal place.

Amounts are stated rounded to the nearest million pounds, consequently totals may not equal the sum of the component integers.

Underlying revenue or profit is revenue or profit on a like-for-like basis.
