[800007] Annex - Financial derivate instruments
Management discussion about the policy uses of financial derivative instruments, explaining if these policies are allowed just for coverage or for other uses like trading
EXHIBIT 1
TO THE ELECTRONIC FORM TITLED “PREPARATION, FILING, DELIVERY AND DISCLOSURE OF QUARTERLY ECONOMIC, ACCOUNTING AND ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION BY
ISSUERS”
III. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE INFORMATION
i. Management’s
discussion of the policies concerning the use of financial derivative instruments, and explanation as to whether such policies permit the use of said instruments solely for hedging or also for trading or other purposes. The discussion
must include a general description of the objectives sought in the execution of financial derivative transactions; the relevant instruments; the hedging or trading strategies implemented in connection therewith; the relevant trading
markets; the eligible counterparties; the policies for the appointment of calculation or valuation agents; the principal terms and conditions of the relevant contracts; the policies as to margins, collateral and lines of credit; the
authorization process and levels of authorization required by type of transaction (e.g., full hedging, partial hedging, speculation), stating whether the transactions were previously approved by the committee(s) responsible for the
development of corporate and auditing practices; the internal control procedures applicable to the management of the market and liquidity risks associated with the positions; and the existence of an independent third party responsible for
the review of such procedures and, as the case may be, the observations raised or deficiencies identified by such third party. If applicable, provide information concerning the composition of the overall risk management committee, its
operating rules, and the existence of an overall risk management manual.
Management’s discussion of the policies concerning the use of financial derivative instruments, and explanation as to whether such
policies permit the use of said instruments solely for hedging or also for trading or other purposes.
In accordance with the policies and procedures implemented by the Vice President of Finance and Risk and the Vice President and Corporate
Controller, along with the Vice President of Internal Audit, the Company has entered into certain financial derivative transactions for hedging purposes in both the Mexican and international markets so as to manage its exposure to the market
risks associated with the changes in interest and foreign exchange rates and inflation. In addition, the Company’s Investments Committee has established guidelines for the investment in structured notes or deposits associated with other
derivatives, which by their nature may be considered as derivative transactions for trading purposes. It should be noted that in the first quarter of 2021, no such financial derivatives were outstanding. Pursuant to the provisions of
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), certain financial derivative transactions originally intended to serve as a hedge and in effect as of March 31, 2021, are not
within the scope of hedge accounting as specified in such Standards and, consequently, are recognized in the accounting based on the provisions included in the aforementioned Standards.
General description of the objectives sought in the execution of financial derivative transactions; the relevant instruments; the
hedging or trading strategies implemented in connection therewith; the relevant trading markets; the eligible counterparties; the policies for the appointment of calculation or valuation agents; the principal terms and conditions of the
relevant contracts; the policies as to margins, collateral and lines of credit; the authorization process and levels of authorization required by type of transaction (e.g., full hedging, partial hedging, speculation), stating whether the
transactions were previously approved by the committee(s) responsible for the development of corporate and auditing practices; the internal control procedures applicable to the management of the market and liquidity risks associated with the
positions; and the existence of an independent third party responsible for the review of such procedures and, as the case may be, the observations raised or deficiencies identified by such third party.
The Company’s principal objective when entering into financial derivative transactions is to mitigate the effects of unforeseen changes in interest
and foreign exchange rates and inflation, so as to reduce the volatility in its results and cash flows as a result of such changes.
The Company monitors its exposure to the interest rate risk by: (i) assessing the difference between the interest rates applicable to its debt and
temporary investments, and the prevailing market rates for similar instruments; (ii) reviewing its cash flow requirements and financial ratios (interest coverage); (iii) assessing the actual and budgeted-for trends in the principal markets;
and (iv) assessing the prevailing industry practices and other similar companies. This approach enables the Company to determine the optimum mix between fixed- and variable-rate interest for its debt.
Foreign exchange risk is monitored by assessing the Company’s monetary position in U.S. dollars and its budgeted cash flow requirements for
investments anticipated to be denominated in U.S. dollars and the service of its U.S. dollar-denominated debt.
Financial derivative transactions are reported from time to time to the Audit Committee.
The Company has entered into master derivatives agreements with both domestic and foreign financial institutions, that are internationally
recognized institutions with which the Company, from time to time, has entered into financial transactions involving corporate and investment banking, as well as treasury services. The form agreement used in connection with financial
derivatives transactions with foreign financial institutions is the Master Agreement published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) and with local institutions is the Master Agreement published by ISDA and
in some instances, using the form agreement ISDAmex. In both cases, the main terms and conditions are standard for these types of transactions and include mechanisms for the appointment of
calculation or valuation agents.
In addition, the Company enters into standard guaranty agreements that set forth the margins, collateral and lines of credit applicable in each
instance. These agreements establish the credit limits granted by the financial institutions with whom the Company enters into master financial derivative agreements, which specify the margin implications in the case of potential negative
changes in the market value of its open financial derivative positions. Pursuant to the agreements entered into by the Company, financial institutions are entitled to make margin calls if certain thresholds are exceeded. In the event of a
change in the credit rating issued to the Company by a recognized credit rating agency, the credit limit granted by each counterparty would be modified.
As of the date hereof, the Company has never experienced a margin call with respect to its financial derivative transactions.
In compliance with its risk management objectives and hedging strategies, the Company generally utilizes the following financial derivative
transactions:
|
1.
|
Cross-currency interest rate swaps (i.e., coupon swaps);
|
|
2.
|
Interest rate and inflation-indexed swaps;
|
|
3.
|
Cross-currency principal and interest rate swaps;
|
|
5.
|
Forward exchange rate contracts;
|
|
7.
|
Interest Rate Caps and Floors contracts;
|
|
8.
|
Fixed-price contracts for the acquisition of government securities (i.e., Treasury locks); and
|
The strategies for the acquisition of financial derivatives transactions are approved by the Risk Management Committee in accordance with the
Policies and Objectives for the Use of Financial Derivatives.
During the quarter from January to March 2021, there were no defaults or margin calls under the aforementioned financial
derivative transactions.
The Company monitors on a weekly basis the flows generated by the fair market value of and the potential for margin calls under its open financial
derivative transactions. The calculation or valuation agent designated in the relevant Master Agreement, which is always the counterparty, issues monthly reports as to the fair market value of the Company’s open positions.
The Risk Management area is responsible for measuring, at least once a month, the Company’s exposure to the financial market risks associated with its
financings and investments, and for submitting a report with respect to the Company’s risk position and the valuation of its financial derivatives to the Finance Committee on a monthly basis, and to the Risk Management Committee on a
quarterly basis. The Company monitors the credit rating assigned to its counterparties in its outstanding financial derivative transactions on a regular basis.
The office of the Comptroller is responsible for the validation of the Company’s accounting records as related to its financial derivative
transactions, based upon the confirmations received from the relevant financial intermediaries, and for obtaining from such intermediaries, on a monthly basis, confirmations or account statements supporting the market valuation of its open
financial derivative positions.
As a part of the yearly audit on the Company, the aforementioned procedures are reviewed by the Company’s external auditors. As of the date hereof,
the Company’s auditors have not raised any observation or identified any deficiency therein.
Information concerning the composition of the overall risk management committee, its operating rules, and the existence of an
overall risk management manual.
The Company has a Risk Management Committee, which is responsible for monitoring the Company’s risk management activities and approving the hedging
strategies used to mitigate the financial market risks to which the Company is exposed. The assessment and hedging of the financial market risks are subject to the policies and procedures applicable to the Company’s Risk Management Committee,
the Finance and Risk Management areas and the Comptroller that form the Risk Management Manual of the Company. In general terms, the Risk Management Committee is comprised of members of the Corporate Management, Corporate Comptroller, Tax
Control and Advice, Information to the Stock Exchange, Finance and Risk, Legal, Administration and Finance, Financial Planning and Corporate Finance areas.
General description about valuation techniques, standing out the instruments valuated at cost or fair value, just like methods and valuation techniques
ii. General description of the valuation methods, indicating whether the instruments are valued at cost or at their fair value pursuant to the applicable accounting principles, the relevant
reference valuation methods and techniques, and the events taken into consideration. Describe the policies for and frequency of the valuation, as well as the actions taken in light of the values obtained therefrom. Clarify whether the
valuation is performed by an independent third party, and indicate if such third party is the structurer, seller or counterparty of the financial instrument. As with respect to financial derivative transactions for hedging purposes, explain
the method used to determine the effectiveness thereof and indicate the level of coverage provided thereby.
The Company values its financial derivative instruments based upon the standard models and calculators provided by recognized market makers. In addition, the Company uses the
relevant market variables available from online sources. The financial derivative instruments are valued at a reasonable value pursuant to the applicable accounting provisions.
In the majority of cases, the valuation at a reasonable value is carried out on a monthly basis based on valuations of the counterparties and the verification of such
reasonable value with internal valuations prepared by the Risk Management area of the Company. Accounting wise, the valuation of the counterparty is registered.
The Company performs its valuations without the participation of any independent third party.
The method used by the Company to determine the effectiveness of an instrument depends on the hedging strategy and on whether the relevant transaction is intended as a
fair-value hedge or a cash-flow hedge. The Company’s methods take into consideration the prospective cash flows generated by or the changes in the fair value of the financial derivative, and the cash flows generated by or the changes in the
fair value of the underlying position that it seeks to hedge to determine, in each case, the hedging ratio.
Management discussion about internal and external sources of liquidity that could be used for attending requirements related to financial derivate instruments
iii. Management’s discussion of the internal and external sources of liquidity that could be used to satisfy the Company’s requirements in connection with its financial
derivatives.
As of the date hereof, the Company’s management has not discussed internal and external sources of liquidity so as to satisfy its requirements in connection with its financial derivatives since,
based upon the aggregate amount of the Company’s financial derivative transactions, management is of the opinion that the Company’s significant positions of cash, cash equivalents and temporary investments, and the substantial cash flows
generated by the Company, would enable the Company to respond adequately to any such requirements.
Changes and management explanation in principal risk exposures identified, as contingencies and events known by the administration that could affect future reports
iv. Explanation as to any change in the issuer’s exposure to the principal risks identified thereby and in their management, and any contingency or event known to or
anticipated by the issuer’s management, which could affect any future report. Description of any circumstance or event, such as any change in the value of the underlying assets or reference variables, resulting in a financial derivative being
used other than as originally intended, or substantially altering its structure, or resulting in the partial or total loss of the hedge, thereby forcing the Issuer to assume new obligations, commitments or changes in its cash flows in a manner
that affects its liquidity (e.g., margin calls). Description of the impact of such financial derivative transactions on the issuer’s results or cash flows. Description and number of financial derivatives maturing during the quarter, any closed
positions and, if applicable, number and amount of margin calls experienced during the quarter. Disclosure as to any default under the relevant contracts.
Changes in the Company’s exposure to the principal risks identified thereby and in their management, and contingencies or
events known to or anticipated by the Company’s management, which could affect any future report.
Since a significant portion of the Company’s debt and costs are denominated in U.S. dollars, while its revenues are primarily denominated in Mexican pesos,
depreciation in the value of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar and any future depreciation could have a negative effect on the Company’s results due to exchange rate losses. However, the significant amount of U.S. dollars in the Company’s
treasury, and the hedging strategies adopted by the Company in recent years, have enabled it to avoid significant foreign exchange losses.
Circumstances or events, such as changes in the value of the underlying assets or reference variables, resulting in a financial derivative
being used other than as originally intended, or substantially altering its structure, or resulting in the partial or total loss of the hedge, thereby forcing the Company to assume new obligations, commitments or changes in its cash flows in a
manner that affects its liquidity (e.g., margin calls). Description of the impact of such financial derivative transactions on the Company’s results or cash flows.
As of the date hereof, no circumstance or event of a financial derivative transaction, resulted in a partial or total loss of the relevant hedge requiring
that the Company assume new obligations, commitments or variations in its cash flow such that its liquidity is affected.
Description and number of financial derivatives maturing during the quarter, any closed positions and, if applicable, number and amount
of margin calls experienced during the quarter. Disclosure as to any default under the relevant contracts.

Quantitative information for disclosure
v. Quantitative Information. Attached hereto as “Table 1” is a summary of the financial derivative instruments purchased by Grupo Televisa, S.A.B, Empresas
Cablevisión S.A.B. de C.V., Televisión Internacional, S.A. de C.V., and Corporación Novavisión S. de R.L. de C.V. whose aggregate fair value represents or could represent one of the reference percentages set forth in Section III (v) of the
Official Communication.
IV. SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS
Considering that the Company has entered into financial derivative transactions for hedging purposes, and given the low amount of the financial derivative instruments that
proved ineffective as a hedge, the Company has determined that such transactions are not material and, accordingly, the sensitivity analysis referred to in Section IV of the Official Communication is not applicable.
In those cases where the derivative instruments of the Company are for hedging purposes, for a material amount and where the effectiveness measures were sufficient, the
measures are justified when the standard deviation of the changes in cash flow as a result of changes in the variables of exchange rate and interest rates of the derivative instruments used jointly with the underlying position is lower than
the standard deviation of the changes in cash flow of the underlying position valued in pesos and the effective measures are defined by the correlation coefficient between both positions for the effective measures to be sufficient.

Disclosure of general information about financial statements
Corporate Information
Grupo Televisa, S.A.B. (the “Company”) is a limited liability public stock corporation (“Sociedad Anónima Bursátil” or “S.A.B.”), incorporated under the laws of Mexico.
Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s bylaws (“Estatutos Sociales”), its corporate existence continues through 2106. The shares of the Company are listed and traded in the form of “Certificados de Participación Ordinarios” or “CPOs” on the
Mexican Stock Exchange (“Bolsa Mexicana de Valores”) under the ticker symbol TLEVISA CPO, and in the form of Global Depositary Shares or GDSs, on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, under the ticker symbol TV. The Company’s principal
executive offices are located at Avenida Vasco de Quiroga 2000, Colonia Santa Fe, 01210 Ciudad de México, México.
Basis of Preparation and Accounting Policies
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group, as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, are
unaudited, and have been prepared in accordance with the guidelines provided by the International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included herein.
The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Group’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for
the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and include, among other disclosures, the
Group’s most significant accounting policies, which were applied on a consistent basis as of March 31, 2021. The adoption of the improvements and amendments to current IFRSs effective on January 1, 2021 did not have a significant impact in
these interim un audited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Disclosure of significant accounting policies
The principal accounting policies followed by the Group and used in the preparation of its annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020, and where applicable, of its
interim condensed consolidated financial statements, are summarized below. These accounting policies should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019,
once they have been submitted to the Mexican Banking and Securities Commission (“Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores” and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, respectively.
|
(a)
|
Basis of Presentation
|
The consolidated financial statements of the Group as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, are presented in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS Standards”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). IFRS Standards comprise: (i) IFRS Standards; (ii) International Accounting Standards (“IAS Standards”); (iii) IFRS
Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) Interpretations; and (iv) Standing Interpretations Committee (“SIC”) Interpretations.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the measurement at fair value of derivative financial instruments, financial assets, investments
in equity financial instruments, plan assets of post-employment benefits and share-based payments, as described in the notes to the financial statements below.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS Standards, requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its
judgment in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. Changes in assumptions may have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements in the period the assumptions changed. Management believes that the underlying
assumptions are appropriate. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where estimates and assumptions are significant to the Group’s financial statements are disclosed in Note 5 to these consolidated financial
statements.
These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance on March 31, 2021 by the Group’s Corporate Vice President of Finance.
The financial statements of the Group are prepared on a consolidated basis and include the assets, liabilities and results of operations of all companies in which the Company has a controlling interest (subsidiaries). All intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated from the consolidated financial statements.
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Company has control. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity
and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The existence and effects of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether or not the Company controls
another entity. The subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is obtained by the Company and cease to consolidate from the date on which said control is lost.
The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair value of the assets transferred,
the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement.
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree on
an acquisition-by-acquisition basis at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the recognized amounts of acquiree’s identifiable net assets.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
Goodwill is initially measured as the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the fair value of non-controlling interest over the net identifiable assets acquired and
liabilities assumed. If this consideration is lower than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized in income or loss.
Changes in Ownership Interests in Subsidiaries without Change of Control
Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions that is, as transactions with the owners in their capacity as owners.
The difference between fair value of any consideration paid and the interest acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals of non-controlling interests are also recorded in
equity.
Loss of Control of a Subsidiary
When the Company ceases to have control of a subsidiary, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, with the change in carrying
amount recognized in income or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously
recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This means that amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are
reclassified to income or loss except for certain equity financial instruments designated irrevocably with changes in other comprehensive income or loss.

In July 2020, the Company concluded the sale of its 50% equity interest in Radiópolis. Through June 2020, Radiópolis was a direct subsidiary of the Company through which the Group
conducted the operations of its former Radio business. The Company controlled Radiópolis as it had the right to appoint the majority of the members of the Board of Directors of Radiópolis. The Radio business was part the of the
Group’s Other Businesses segment through the third quarter of 2019. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2019, the assets and related liabilities of the Radio Business, as well as its operating results, were classified as held for
sale in the Group’s consolidated financial statements through June 30, 2020 (see Notes 3 and 26).

The Group’s Cable, Sky and Content segments, require governmental concessions and special authorizations for the provision of broadcasting and telecommunications services in Mexico. Such
concessions are granted by the Mexican Institute of Telecommunications (“Instituto Federal de Telecomunicaciones” or “IFT”) for a fixed term, subject to renewal in accordance with the Mexican Telecommunications and Broadcasting Law (“Ley
Federal de Telecomunicaciones y Radiodifusión” or “LFTR”).
Renewal of concessions for the Content segment (Broadcasting) require, among others: (i) to request such renewal to IFT prior to the last fifth period of the fixed term of the related
concession; (ii) to be in compliance with the concession holder’s obligations under the LFTR, other applicable regulations, and the concession title; (iii) a declaration by IFT that there is no public interest in recovering the spectrum
granted under the related concession; and (iv) the acceptance by the concession holder of any new conditions for renewing the concession as set forth by IFT, including the payment of a related fee. IFT shall resolve within the year
following the presentation of the request, if there is public interest in recovering the spectrum granted under the related concession, in which case it will notify its determination and proceed with the termination of the concession at the
end of its fixed term. If IFT determines that there is no public interest in recovering the spectrum, it will grant the requested extension within 180 business days, provided that the concessionaire accepts, in advance, the new conditions
set by IFT, which will include the payment of the fee referred to above. Such fee will be determined by IFT for the relevant concessions, considering the following elements: (i) the frequency band; (ii) the amount of spectrum;
(iii) coverage of the frequency band; (iv) domestic and international benchmark regarding the market value of frequency bands; and (v) upon request of IFT, an opinion issued by the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit of IFT´s proposal for
calculation of the fee.
Renewal of concessions for the Sky and Cable segments require, among others: (i) to request its renewal to IFT prior to the last fifth period of the fixed term of the related concession;
(ii) to be in compliance with the concession holder’s obligations under the LFTR, other applicable regulations, and the concession title; and (iii) the acceptance by the concession holder of any new conditions for renewing the concession as
set forth by IFT. IFT shall resolve any request for renewal of the telecommunications concessions within 180 business days of its request. Failure to respond within such period of time shall be interpreted as if the request for renewal has
been granted.
The regulations of the broadcasting and the telecommunications concessions (including satellite pay TV) establish that at the end of the concession, the frequency bands or spectrum
attached to the services provided in the concessions shall return to the Mexican government. In addition, at the end of the concession, the Mexican government will have the preferential right to acquire infrastructure, equipment and other
goods directly used in the provision of the concession. If the Mexican government were to exercise its right to acquire infrastructure, equipment and other goods, it would be required to pay a price that is equivalent to a formula that is
similar to fair value. To the knowledge of the Company’s management, no spectrum granted for broadcasting services in Mexico has been recovered by the Mexican government in at least the past three decades for public interest reasons.
However, the Company’s management is unable to predict the outcome of any action by IFT in this regard. In addition, these assets, by themselves, would not be enough to immediately begin broadcasting or offering satellite pay TV services or
telecommunications services, as no content producing assets or other equipment necessary to operate the business would be included.
Also, the Group’s Gaming business, which is reported in the Other Businesses segment, requires a permit granted by the Mexican Federal Government for a fixed term, subject to renewal in
accordance with Mexican law. Additionally, the Group’s Sky businesses in Central America and the Dominican Republic require concessions or permits granted by local regulatory authorities for a fixed term, subject to renewal in accordance
with local laws.
The accounting guidelines provided by IFRIC 12 Service Concession Arrangements, are not applicable to the Group due primarily to the following
factors: (i) the Mexican government does not substantially control the Group’s infrastructure, what services are provided with the infrastructure and the price at which such services are offered; (ii) the Group’s broadcasting service does
not constitute a public service as per the definition in IFRIC 12; and (iii) the Group is unable to divide its infrastructure among the public (telephony and possibly Internet services) and non-public (pay TV) service components.
At December 31, 2020, the expiration dates of the Group’s concessions and permits were as follows:

In November 2018, the IFT approved the renewal of the Group’s broadcasting concessions for all of its television stations in Mexico, for a term of 20 years after the existing
expiration date in 2021. In November 2018, the Group paid for such renewal an aggregate amount of Ps.5,754,543 in cash, which included a payment of Ps.1,194 for administrative expenses and recognized this payment as an intangible
asset in its consolidated statement of financial position. This amount will be amortized in a period of 20 years beginning on January 1, 2022, by using the straight-line method (see Note 13).

The concessions or permits held by the Group are not subject to any significant pricing regulations in the ordinary course of business.

Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures
|
Associates are those entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control, generally those entities with a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting
rights. Investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the contractual rights and obligations of each investor. Joint ventures are those joint arrangements where the Group exercises
joint control with other stockholder or more stockholders without exercising control individually, and have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangements. Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity
method of accounting. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognized at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the investor’s share of the net assets of the investee after the date of acquisition.
The Group’s investments in associates include an equity interest in UHI represented by approximately 35.9% and 10% of the outstanding total shares of UHI as of December 31, 2020 and 2019,
respectively (see Notes 9 and 10).
If the Group’s share of losses of an associate or a joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in the investee, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. The interest
in an associate or a joint venture is the carrying amount of the investment in the investee under the equity method together with any other long-term investment that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the investee. After
the Group’s interest is reduced to zero, additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint
venture.
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Group’s Co-Chief Executive Officers (“chief operating decision makers”) who are responsible
for allocating resources and assessing performance for each of the Group’s operating segments.

Foreign Currency Translation
|
Functional and Presentation Currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“functional currency”). The presentation and reporting currency of the
Group’s consolidated financial statements is the Mexican peso, which is used for compliance with its legal and tax obligations.
Transactions and Balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or measurement where items are remeasured.
Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the statement of
income as part of finance income or expense, except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges.
Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in foreign currency classified as investments in financial instruments are analyzed between exchange differences resulting from
changes in the amortized cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the security. Translation differences related to changes in amortized cost are recognized in income or loss, and other changes in carrying amount are
recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.
Translation of Foreign Operations
The financial statements of the Group’s foreign entities that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
(a) assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of the statement of financial position; (b) income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the
cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); (c) stockholders' equity accounts are translated at the prevailing exchange rate
at the time capital contributions were made and earnings were generated and (d) all resulting translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate.
Translation differences arising are recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies of non-Mexican subsidiaries that use the Mexican Peso as a functional currency are initially converted to Mexican Pesos by utilizing the
exchange rate of the statement of financial position date for monetary assets and liabilities, and historical exchange rates for non-monetary items, with the related adjustment included in the consolidated statement of income as finance
income or expense.
A portion of the Group’s outstanding principal amount of its U.S. dollar denominated long-term debt (hedging instrument, disclosed in the line item “Long-term debt, net of current portion”
of the consolidated statement of financial position) has been designated as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation in connection with the Group’s investment in shares of common stock of UHI (hedged item), which amounted to
U.S.$1,074.0 million (Ps.21,424,180) and U.S.$433.7 million (Ps.8,189,662) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Consequently, any foreign exchange gain or loss attributable to this designated hedging long-term debt is credited or
charged directly to other comprehensive income or loss as a cumulative result from foreign currency translation (see Note 10).
A portion of the Group’s outstanding principal amount of its U.S. dollar denominated long-term debt (hedging instrument, disclosed in the line item “Long-term debt, net of current portion”
of the consolidated statement of financial position) was designated as a fair value hedge of foreign exchange exposure related to its investment in warrants that were exercisable for common stock of UHI (hedged item) through December 29,
2020, the date on which the Group exercised all of these warrants for common stock of UHI, which amounted to Ps.17,387,699 million (U.S.$871.6 million) as of December 29, 2020 and Ps.33,775,451 million (U.S.$1,788.6 million) as of December
31, 2019. Consequently, any foreign exchange gain or loss attributable to this designated hedging long-term debt was credited or charged directly to other comprehensive income or loss through December 29, 2020, along with the recognition in
the same line item of any foreign currency gain or loss of this investment in warrants designated as a hedged item through that date (see Notes 9, 14 and 18).
A portion of the Group’s outstanding principal amount of its U.S. dollar denominated long-term debt (hedging instrument, disclosed in the line item “Long-term debt, net of current portion”
of the consolidated statement of financial position) has been designated as a fair value hedge of foreign exchange exposure related to its investment in Open-Ended Fund (hedged item), which amounted to Ps.1,135,803 (U.S.$56.9 million) and
Ps.4,688,202 (U.S.$248.3 million), as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Consequently, any foreign exchange gain or loss attributable to this designated hedging long-term debt is credited or charged directly to other comprehensive
income or loss, along with the recognition in the same line item of any foreign currency gain or loss of this investment in Open-Ended Fund designated as a hedged item (see Notes 9, 14 and 18).
Beginning on January 1, 2018, the Group adopted the hedge accounting requirements of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”) for all of its
hedging relationships. This IFRS Standard became effective on that date.

(f)
|
Cash and Cash Equivalents
|
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition. Cash is stated at nominal
value and cash equivalents are measured at fair value, and the changes in the fair value are recognized in the statement of income.
As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, cash equivalents primarily consisted of fixed short-term deposits and corporate fixed income securities denominated in U.S. dollars and Mexican pesos,
with an average yield of approximately 0.38% for U.S. dollar deposits and 5.40% for Mexican peso deposits in 2020, and approximately 2.20% for U.S. dollar deposits and 8.09% for Mexican peso deposits in 2019.

(g)
|
Transmission Rights and Programming
|
Programming is comprised of programs, literary works, production talent advances and films.
Transmission rights and literary works are valued at the lesser of acquisition cost and net realizable value. Programs and films are valued at the lesser of production cost, which consists
of direct production costs and production overhead, and net realizable value. Payments for production talent advances are initially capitalized and subsequently included as direct or indirect costs of program production. Transmission rights
are recognized from the point of which the legally enforceable license period begins. Until the license term commences and the programming rights are available, payments made are recognized as prepayments.
The Group’s policy is to capitalize the production costs of programs which benefit more than one annual period and amortize them over the expected period of future program revenues based
on the Company’s historical revenue patterns and usage for similar productions.
Transmission rights, programs, literary works, production talent advances and films are recorded at acquisition or production cost. Cost of sales is calculated and recorded for the month in
which such transmission rights, programs, literary works, production talent advances and films are matched with related revenues.
Transmission rights are recognized in income over the lives of the contracts. Transmission rights in perpetuity are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of the expected benefit
as determined by past experience, but not exceeding 25 years.
Inventories of paper, magazines, materials and supplies for maintenance of technical equipment are recorded at the lower of cost or its net realization value. The net realization value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of
business, less estimated costs to conduct the sale. Cost is determined using the average cost method.
Beginning on January 1, 2018, the Group classifies its financial assets in accordance with IFRS 9 which became effective on that date. Under the guidelines of IFRS 9, the Group classifies
financial assets as subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or loss (“FVOCIL”), or fair value through income or loss (“FVIL”), based on the Company’s business model for managing the financial
assets and the contractual cash flows characteristics of the financial asset.
Financial Assets Measured at Amortized Cost
Financial assets are measured at amortized cost when the objective of holding such financial assets is to collect contractual cash flows, and the contractual terms of the financial asset
give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are only payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. These financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently carried at
amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, with changes in carrying value recognized in the consolidated statement of income in the line which most appropriately reflects the nature of the item or transaction. They are included
in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period that are included in non-current assets. The Group’s financial assets measured at amortized costs are primarily presented as “trade notes
and accounts receivable”, “other accounts and notes receivable”, and “due from related parties” in the consolidated statement of financial position (see Note 7).
Financial Assets Measured at FVOCIL
Financial assets are measured at FVOCIL when the objective of holding such financial assets is both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and the contractual terms
of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
The Group’s investments in certain equity instruments have been designated to be measured at FVOCIL, as permitted by IFRS 9 (see Note 28). In connection with this designation, any amounts
presented in consolidated other comprehensive income are not subsequently transferred to consolidated income. Dividends from these equity instruments are recognized in consolidated income when the right to receive payment of the dividend is
established, and such dividend is probable to be paid to the Group.
Financial Assets at FVIL
Financial assets at FVIL are financial assets held for trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term.
Derivatives are also categorized as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current assets if expected to be settled within 12 months, otherwise they are classified as non-current.
Impairment of Financial Assets
From January 1, 2018, the Group assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its financial assets carried at fair value through other comprehensive income
or loss. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
For trade receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognized from initial recognition of the receivables
(see Note 7).
Offsetting of Financial Instruments
Financial assets are offset against financial liabilities and the net amount reported in the consolidated statement of financial position if, and only when the Group: (i) currently has a
legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts; and (ii) intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liability simultaneously.
|
(j)
|
Property, Plant and Equipment
|
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at acquisition cost.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the
item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to income or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Land is not depreciated. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is based upon the carrying value of the assets in use and is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the asset, as follows:

|
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognized within other income or expense in the consolidated statement of income.
If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.
Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following: the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, any initial
direct costs and restoration costs.
Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term on a straight – line basis. If the Group is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is
depreciated over the underlying asset’s useful life.
Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and vehicles and mostly leases of low-value assets are recognized on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12
months or less.
|
(l)
|
Intangible Assets and Goodwill
|
Intangible assets and goodwill are recognized at acquisition cost. Intangible assets and goodwill acquired through business combinations are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition. Intangible assets with indefinite useful
lives, which include, trademarks, concessions, and goodwill, are not amortized, and subsequently recognized at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over
their estimated useful lives, as follows:

|
|
Trademarks
The Group determines its acquired trademarks to have an indefinite life when they are expected to generate net cash inflows for the Group indefinitely. Additionally, the Group considers that
there are no legal, regulatory or contractual provisions that limit the useful lives of trademarks. The Group has not capitalized any amounts associated with internally developed trademarks.
Concessions
The Group defined concessions to have an indefinite life due to the fact that the Group has a history of renewing its concessions upon expiration, has maintained the concessions granted by
the Mexican government, and has no foreseeable limit to the period over which the assets are expected to generate net cash inflows. In addition, the Group is committed to continue to invest for the long term to extend the period over which
the broadcasting and telecommunications concessions are expected to continue to provide economic benefits.
Any fees paid by the Group to regulatory authorities for concessions renewed are determined to have finite useful lives and are amortized on a straight-live basis over the fixed term of the
related concession.
Goodwill
Goodwill arises on the acquisition of a business and represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the Group’s interest in net fair value of the identifiable assets,
liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree and the fair value of the non-controlling interest in the acquiree.
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the cash generating units (“CGUs”), or groups of CGUs, that are expected to benefit
from the synergies of the combination. Each unit or group of units to which the goodwill is allocated represents the lowest level within the entity at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.
Goodwill impairment reviews are undertaken annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The carrying value of goodwill is compared to
the recoverable amount, which is the higher between the value in use and the fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment of goodwill is recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of income and is not subject to be reversed in
subsequent periods.
|
(m)
|
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
|
The Group reviews for impairment the carrying amounts of its long-lived assets, tangible and intangible, including goodwill (see Note 13), at least once a year, or whenever events or changes
in business circumstances indicate that these carrying amounts may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher
of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. To determine whether an impairment exists, the carrying value of the reporting unit is compared with its recoverable amount. Fair value estimates are based on quoted market values
in active markets, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, the estimate of fair value is based on various valuation techniques, including discounted value of estimated future cash flows, market multiples or third-party
appraisal valuations. Any impairment of long-lived assets other than goodwill may be subsequently reversed under certain circumstances.

|
Trade Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses
|
Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade accounts payable and
accrued expenses are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses are presented as a single item of consolidated current liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2020
and 2019.
Debt is recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Debt is subsequently carried at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs)
and the redemption value is recognized in the consolidated statement of income over the period on which the debt is outstanding using the effective interest method.
Fees paid on the establishment of debt facilities are recognized as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this
case, the fee is deferred until the draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalized as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortized over
the period of the facility to which it relates.
Current portion of long-term debt and interest payable are presented as a separate line item in the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.
Debt early redemption costs are recognized as finance expense in the consolidated statement of income.

Customer Deposits and Advances
|
Customer deposits and advance agreements for advertising services provide that customers receive prices that are fixed for the contract period for advertising time in the Group’s platforms
based on rates established by the Group. Such rates vary depending on when the advertisement is made, including the season, hour, day and type of programming.
The Group recognizes customer deposits and advance agreements for advertising services in the consolidated statement of financial position when these agreements are executed either with a
consideration in cash paid by customers or with short-term non-interest bearing notes received from customers in connection with annual (“upfront basis”) and from time to time (“scatter basis”) prepayments (see Note 7). In connection with the
initial adoption of IFRS 15 Revenues from Contracts with Customers (“IFRS 15”) in the first quarter of 2018 (see Note 2 (s)), customer deposits and advances agreements are presented by the Group as a
contract liability in the consolidated statement of financial position when a customer pays consideration, or the Group has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional, before the Group transfers services to the customer. Under
the guidelines of this standard, a contract liability is a Group’s obligation to transfer services or goods to a customer for which the Group has received consideration, or an amount of consideration is due, from the customer. In addition, the
Group recognizes contract asset upon the approval of non-cancellable contracts that generate an unconditional right to receive cash consideration prior to services being rendered. The Company’s management has consistently recognized that an
amount of consideration is due, for legal, finance and accounting purposes, when a short-term non-interest bearing note is received from a customer in connection with a deposit or advance agreement entered into with the customer for advertising
services to be rendered by the Group in the short term.
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the
obligation, and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time
value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provisions due to passage of time is recognized as interest expense.
The capital stock and other equity accounts include the effect of restatement through December 31, 1997, determined by applying the change in the Mexican National Consumer Price Index between
the dates capital was contributed or net results were generated and December 31, 1997, the date through which the Mexican economy was considered hyperinflationary under the guidelines of IFRS Standards. The restatement represented the amount
required to maintain the contributions and accumulated results in Mexican Pesos in purchasing power as of December 31, 1997.
Where any company in the Group purchases shares of the Company’s capital stock (shares repurchased), the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs is deducted
from equity attributable to stockholders of the Company until the shares are cancelled, reissued, or sold. Where such shares repurchased are subsequently reissued or sold, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental
transaction costs, is included in equity attributable to stockholders of the Company.
In connection with the initial adoption of IFRS 15, in the first quarter of 2018, the Company’s management: (i) reviewed significant revenue streams and identified certain effects on revenue
recognition in the Group’s Cable and Sky segments, as discussed below; (ii) used the retrospective cumulative effect, which consists in recognizing any cumulative adjustment resulting from the new standard at the date of initial adoption in
consolidated equity; and (iii) did not restate the comparative information for prior years, which was reported under the revenue recognition IFRS Standard in effect in those periods (see Note 28).
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for services provided. The Group recognizes revenue when the amount of
revenue can be reliably measured; when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity; and when specific criteria have been met for each of the Group’s activities, as described below. The Group bases its estimate of return
on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.
The Group derives the majority of its revenues from media and entertainment-related business activities both in Mexico and internationally. Revenues are recognized when the service is provided
and collection is probable. A summary of revenue recognition policies by significant activity is as follows:
|
•
|
Cable television, internet and telephone subscription, and pay-per-view and installation fees are recognized in the period in which the services are rendered. Beginning on January 1,
2018, in accordance with IFRS 15, incremental costs for obtaining contracts with customers, primarily commissions, are recognized as assets in the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position and amortized in the expected life
of contracts with customers.
|
|
•
|
Revenues from other telecommunications and data services are recognized in the period in which these services are provided. Other telecommunications services include long distance and
local telephony, as well as leasing and maintenance of telecommunications facilities.
|
|
•
|
Sky program service revenues, including advances from customers for future direct-to-home (“DTH”) program services, are recognized at the time the service is provided. Beginning on
January 1, 2018, in accordance with IFRS 15, certain incremental costs for obtaining contracts with customers, primarily commissions, are recognized as assets in the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position and amortized
in the expected life of contracts with customers.
|
|
•
|
Advertising revenues, including deposits and advances from customers for future advertising, are recognized at the time the advertising services are rendered.
|
|
•
|
Revenues from program services for network subscription and licensed and syndicated television programs are recognized when the programs are sold and become available for broadcast.
|
|
•
|
Revenues from magazine subscriptions are initially deferred and recognized proportionately as products are delivered to subscribers. Revenues from the sales of magazines are recognized
on the date of circulation of delivered merchandise, net of a provision for estimated returns.
|
|
•
|
Revenues from publishing distribution are recognized upon distribution of the products.
|
|
•
|
Revenues from attendance to soccer games, including revenues from advance ticket sales for soccer games and other promotional events, are recognized on the date of the relevant event.
|
|
•
|
Motion picture production and distribution revenues are recognized as the films are exhibited.
|
|
•
|
Gaming revenues consist of the net win from gaming activities, which is the difference between amounts wagered and amounts paid to winning patrons and are recognized at the time of such
net win.
|
In respect to sales of multiple products or services, the Group evaluates whether it has fair value evidence for each deliverable in the transaction. For example, the Group sells cable
television, internet and telephone subscription to subscribers in a bundled package at a rate lower than if the subscriber purchases each product on an individual basis. Subscription revenues received from such subscribers are allocated to each
product in a pro-rata manner based on the fair value of each of the respective services.
Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. When a loan and receivable is impaired, the Group reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated
future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of the instrument, and continues unwinding the discount as interest income. Interest income on impaired loan and receivables is recognized using the original effective interest
rate.
Pension and Seniority Premium Obligations
Plans exist for pensions and seniority premiums (post-employment benefits), for most of the Group’s employees funded through irrevocable trusts. Increases or decreases in the consolidated
liability or asset for post-employment benefits are based upon actuarial calculations. Contributions to the trusts are determined in accordance with actuarial estimates of funding requirements. Payments of post-employment benefits are made by
the trust administrators. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using
interest rates of government bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension obligation.
Remeasurement of post-employment benefit obligations related to experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions of post- employment benefits are recognized in the period in which
they are incurred as part of other comprehensive income or loss in consolidated equity.
Profit Sharing
The employees’ profit sharing required to be paid under certain circumstances in Mexico, is recognized as a direct benefit to employees in the consolidated statements of income in the period
in which it is incurred.
Termination Benefits
Termination benefits, which mainly represent severance payments by law, are recorded in the consolidated statement of income. The Group recognizes termination benefits at the earlier of the
following dates: (a) when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits; and (b) when the entity recognizes costs for a restructuring that involves the payment of termination benefits.
The income tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred income tax. Income tax is recognized in the consolidated statement of income, except to the extent that it relates to items
recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the income tax is recognized in other comprehensive income.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date in the countries where the Company and its
subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns and establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
Deferred income tax is recognized, using the balance sheet liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the
consolidated financial statements. However, deferred income tax liabilities are not recognized if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill; deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or
liability in a transaction (other than in a business combination) that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable income or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is recovered or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences and tax loss carryforwards
can be utilized. For this purpose, the Group takes into consideration all available positive and negative evidence, including factors such as market conditions, industry analysis, projected taxable income, carryforward periods, current tax
structure, potential changes or adjustments in tax structure, and future reversals of existing temporary differences.
Deferred income tax liabilities are provided on taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, except for deferred income tax
liabilities where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred income tax assets are provided on
deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable income against which to utilize the benefit of the temporary
difference and it is expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income taxes
assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.

Derivative Financial Instruments
|
The Group recognizes derivative financial instruments as either assets or liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial position and measures such instruments at fair value. The
accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative financial instrument depends on the intended use of the derivative financial instrument and the resulting designation. For a derivative financial instrument designated as a cash flow
hedge, the effective portion of such derivative’s gain or loss is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income or loss and subsequently reclassified into income when the hedged exposure affects income. The ineffective portion
of the gain or loss is reported in income immediately. For a derivative financial instrument designated as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change together with the offsetting loss or gain on the
hedged item attributed to the risk being hedged. When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument that has been recognized in other comprehensive income remains in
equity until the forecast transaction occurs. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately reclassified to income or loss. For derivative financial
instruments that are not designated as accounting hedges, changes in fair value are recognized in income in the period of change. During the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, certain derivative financial instruments qualified for
hedge accounting (see Note 15).
Comprehensive income for the period includes the net income for the period presented in the consolidated statement of income plus other comprehensive income for the period reflected in the
consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Share-based Payment Agreements
|
Key officers and employees of certain subsidiaries of the Company have entered into agreements for the conditional sale of Company’s shares under the Company’s Long-Term Retention Plan
(“LTRP”). The share-based compensation expense is measured at fair value at the date the equity benefits are conditionally sold to these officers and employees, and is recognized as a charge to consolidated income (administrative expense) over
the vesting period. The Group recognized a share-based compensation expense of Ps.984,356, Ps.1,129,644 and Ps.1,327,549 for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively, of which Ps.962,806, Ps.1,108,094 and Ps.1,305,999 was
credited in consolidated stockholders’ equity for those years, respectively (see Note 17).
Through December 31, 2018:
|
•
|
The determination of whether an arrangement was, or contained, a lease was based on the substance of the arrangement and required an assessment of whether the fulfillment of the
arrangement was dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and whether the arrangement conveyed the right to use the asset.
|
|
•
|
Leases of property, plant and equipment and other assets where the Group held substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership were classified as finance leases. Finance lease assets
were capitalized at the commencement of the lease term at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the lease asset. The obligations relating to finance leases, net of finance charges in respect
of future periods, were recognized as liabilities. The interest element of the finance cost was charged to the consolidated statement of income over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the
remaining balance of the liability for each period. The property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases was depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease term.
|
|
•
|
Leases where a significant portion of the risks and rewards were held by the lessor were classified as operating leases. Rentals were charged to the consolidated statement of income on a
straight line basis over the period of the lease.
|
|
•
|
Leasehold improvements were depreciated at the lesser of its useful life or contract term.
|
In the first quarter of 2019, the Group adopted IFRS 16 Leases (“IFRS 16”), which became effective for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2019
(see Note 28). The Group does not apply this new IFRS Standard to short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, as permitted by the guidelines of IFRS 16.
On adoption of IFRS 16, the Group recognized lease liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as operating leases under the principles of IAS 17 Leases (“IAS 17”). These liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee´s incremental borrowing rate
as of January 1, 2019. The average lessee’s incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities on January 1, 2019 was 4.7% and 10.6% for U.S. dollars leases and Mexican pesos leases, respectively.

New and Amended IFRS Standards
|
The Group adopted IFRS 16 in 2019, which became effective on January 1, 2019 (see Notes 2 (k), 2 (z) and 28). The Group adopted IFRS 15 and IFRS 9 in 2018, which became effective on January
1, 2018 (see Notes 2 (i), 2 (t) and 28). Some other amendments and improvements to certain IFRS Standards became effective on January 1, 2020, 2019 and 2018, and they did not have any significant impact on the Group’s consolidated financial
statements.

(1) This new or amended IFRS Standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture, were issued in September
2014 and address and acknowledge inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 and those in IAS 28 (2011), in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. The main consequence of
the amendments is that a full gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involved a business (whether it is housed in a subsidiary or not). A partial gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involved assets that do not constitute a
business, even if these assets are housed in a subsidiary. In December 2015, the IASB postponed the effective date of these amendments indefinitely pending the outcome of its research project on the equity method of accounting.
IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts (“IFRS 17”) was issued in May 2017 and amended in June 2020. IFRS 17 supersedes IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts (“IFRS 4”), which has given companies dispensation to carry on accounting for insurance contracts using national accounting standards, resulting in a multitude of different approaches. IFRS 17 establishes
principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosures of insurance contracts issued. It also requires similar principles to be applied to reinsurance contracts with discretionary participation features issued. IFRS 17
solves the comparison problems created by IFRS 4 by requiring all insurance contracts to be accounted for in a consistent manner. Under the provisions of IFRS 17, insurance obligations will be accounted for using current values instead of
historical cost. Amendments to IFRS 17 were issued in June 2020 aimed at helping companies implement the Standard and making it easier for them to explain their financial performance. The fundamental principles introduced when IFRS 17 was
issued in May 2017 remained unaffected. IFRS 17 is effective on January 1, 2023, and earlier application is permitted.
Amendments to IAS 1 Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current were issued in January 2020, and clarify one of the criteria in IAS 1
for classifying a liability as non-current that is, the requirement for an entity to have the right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. An entity shall apply these amendments for annual
reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023 retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8. Earlier application is permitted.
Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018-2020, were issued in May 2020, and make minor amendments to certain IFRS Standards. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or
after January 1, 2022. Earlier application is permitted. The following table shows the IFRS Standards amended and the subject of the amendments.

Amendments to IFRS 3 Reference to the Conceptual Framework, were issued in May 2020, and update a reference in IFRS 3 Business Combinations to the
Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting without changing the accounting requirements for business combinations.
Amendments to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before Intended Use, were issued in May 2020, and prohibit a company from deducting from
the cost of property, plant and equipment amounts received from selling items produced while the company is preparing the asset for its intended use. Instead, a company will recognize such sales proceeds and related cost in income or loss.
Amendments to IAS 37 Onerous Contracts – Cost of Fulfilling a Contract, were issued in May 2020, and specify which costs a company includes when
assessing whether a contract will be loss-making, under the guidelines of IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets.
Amendment to IFRS 16 Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions was issued in May 2020, and exempts lessees from having to consider individual lease contracts
to determine whether rent concessions (i.e. temporary rent reductions) occurring as a direct consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic are lease modifications, and allows lessees to account for such rent concessions as if they were not lease
modifications. It applies to Covid-19-related rent concessions that reduce lease payments due on or before June 30, 2021. IFRS 16 specifies how lessees should account for changes in lease payments, including concessions. However, applying those
requirements to a potentially large volume of Covid-19-related rent concessions could be practically difficult, especially in the light of the many challenges stakeholders face during the pandemic. This optional exemption gives timely relief to
lessees and enables them to continue providing information about their leases that is useful to investors. The amendment does not affect lessors. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after June 1, 2020.
Earlier application is permitted, including in financial statements not authorized for issue.
Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2, were issued in August 2020 as a complement to those
amendments issued in September 2019 (Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7 Interest Rate Benchmark Reform, which were focused on the accounting effects of uncertainty in the period leading up to the reform). The “interest rate benchmark
reform” refers to the market-wide reform of an interest rate benchmark (such as an interbank offered rate or IBOR), including the replacement of an interest rate benchmark with an alternative benchmark rate. Phase 2 amendments focus on the
effects on financial statements when a company replaces the old interest rate benchmark with an alternative benchmark rate as a result of the reform, The amendments in this final phase relate to: (i) changes to contractual cash flows – a
company will not have to derecognize or adjust the carrying amount of financial instruments for changes required by the reform, but will instead update the effective interest rate to reflect the change to the alternative benchmark rate; (ii)
hedge accounting – a company will not have to discontinue its hedge accounting solely because it makes changes required by the reform, if the hedge meets other hedge accounting criteria; and (iii) disclosures – a company will be required to
disclose information about new risks arising from the reform and how it manages the transition to alternative benchmark rates.
Amendments to IAS 8 Definition of Accounting Estimates, were issued in February 2021, the amendments introduced the definition of accounting
estimates and included other amendments to IAS 8 to help entities distinguish changes in accounting estimates from changes in accounting policies.
Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 Disclosure of Accounting Policies, were issued in February 2021, the Board amended paragraphs
117–122 of IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements to require entities to disclose their material accounting policy information rather than their significant accounting policies. To support this
amendment the Board also amended IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements (Materiality Practice Statement) to explain and demonstrate the application of the ‘four-step materiality
process’ to accounting policy disclosures.

Disclosure of significant accounting policies
Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies followed by the Group and used in the preparation of its annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020, and where applicable, of its interim condensed consolidated financial statements,
are summarized below. These accounting policies should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Group for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, once they have been submitted to the Mexican Banking
and Securities Commission (“Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores” and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, respectively
|
(a)
|
Basis of Presentation
|
The consolidated financial statements of the Group as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, are presented in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS Standards”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). IFRS Standards comprise: (i) IFRS Standards; (ii) International Accounting Standards (“IAS Standards”); (iii) IFRS
Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) Interpretations; and (iv) Standing Interpretations Committee (“SIC”) Interpretations.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the measurement at fair value of derivative financial instruments, financial assets, investments in
equity financial instruments, plan assets of post-employment benefits and share-based payments, as described in the notes to the financial statements below.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS Standards, requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its
judgment in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. Changes in assumptions may have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements in the period the assumptions changed. Management believes that the underlying
assumptions are appropriate. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where estimates and assumptions are significant to the Group’s financial statements are disclosed in Note 5 to these consolidated financial
statements.
These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance on March 31, 2021 by the Group’s Corporate Vice President of Finance.
The financial statements of the Group are prepared on a consolidated basis and include the assets, liabilities and results of operations of all companies in which the Company has a controlling interest (subsidiaries). All intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated from the consolidated financial statements.
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Company has control. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns
through its power over the entity. The existence and effects of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether or not the Company controls another entity. The subsidiaries are
consolidated from the date on which control is obtained by the Company and cease to consolidate from the date on which said control is lost.
The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of
the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and
contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis at the
non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the recognized amounts of acquiree’s identifiable net assets.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
Goodwill is initially measured as the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the fair value of non-controlling interest over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities
assumed. If this consideration is lower than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized in income or loss.
Changes in Ownership Interests in Subsidiaries without Change of Control
Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions that is, as transactions with the owners in their capacity as owners. The
difference between fair value of any consideration paid and the interest acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals of non-controlling interests are also recorded in
equity.
Loss of Control of a Subsidiary
When the Company ceases to have control of a subsidiary, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, with the change in carrying amount recognized
in income or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognized in
other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This means that amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are
reclassified to income or loss except for certain equity financial instruments designated irrevocably with changes in other comprehensive income or loss.

In July 2020, the Company concluded the sale of its 50% equity interest in Radiópolis. Through June 2020, Radiópolis was a direct subsidiary of the Company through which the Group
conducted the operations of its former Radio business. The Company controlled Radiópolis as it had the right to appoint the majority of the members of the Board of Directors of Radiópolis. The Radio business was part the of the Group’s
Other Businesses segment through the third quarter of 2019. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2019, the assets and related liabilities of the Radio Business, as well as its operating results, were classified as held for sale in the
Group’s consolidated financial statements through June 30, 2020 (see Notes 3 and 26).

The Group’s Cable, Sky and Content segments, require governmental concessions and special authorizations for the provision of broadcasting and telecommunications services in Mexico. Such
concessions are granted by the Mexican Institute of Telecommunications (“Instituto Federal de Telecomunicaciones” or “IFT”) for a fixed term, subject to renewal in accordance with the Mexican Telecommunications and Broadcasting Law (“Ley
Federal de Telecomunicaciones y Radiodifusión” or “LFTR”).
Renewal of concessions for the Content segment (Broadcasting) require, among others: (i) to request such renewal to IFT prior to the last fifth period of the fixed term of the related concession;
(ii) to be in compliance with the concession holder’s obligations under the LFTR, other applicable regulations, and the concession title; (iii) a declaration by IFT that there is no public interest in recovering the spectrum granted under the
related concession; and (iv) the acceptance by the concession holder of any new conditions for renewing the concession as set forth by IFT, including the payment of a related fee. IFT shall resolve within the year following the presentation of
the request, if there is public interest in recovering the spectrum granted under the related concession, in which case it will notify its determination and proceed with the termination of the concession at the end of its fixed term. If IFT
determines that there is no public interest in recovering the spectrum, it will grant the requested extension within 180 business days, provided that the concessionaire accepts, in advance, the new conditions set by IFT, which will include the
payment of the fee referred to above. Such fee will be determined by IFT for the relevant concessions, considering the following elements: (i) the frequency band; (ii) the amount of spectrum; (iii) coverage of the frequency band; (iv) domestic
and international benchmark regarding the market value of frequency bands; and (v) upon request of IFT, an opinion issued by the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit of IFT´s proposal for calculation of the fee.
Renewal of concessions for the Sky and Cable segments require, among others: (i) to request its renewal to IFT prior to the last fifth period of the fixed term of the related concession; (ii) to
be in compliance with the concession holder’s obligations under the LFTR, other applicable regulations, and the concession title; and (iii) the acceptance by the concession holder of any new conditions for renewing the concession as set forth
by IFT. IFT shall resolve any request for renewal of the telecommunications concessions within 180 business days of its request. Failure to respond within such period of time shall be interpreted as if the request for renewal has been granted.
The regulations of the broadcasting and the telecommunications concessions (including satellite pay TV) establish that at the end of the concession, the frequency bands or spectrum attached to the
services provided in the concessions shall return to the Mexican government. In addition, at the end of the concession, the Mexican government will have the preferential right to acquire infrastructure, equipment and other goods directly used
in the provision of the concession. If the Mexican government were to exercise its right to acquire infrastructure, equipment and other goods, it would be required to pay a price that is equivalent to a formula that is similar to fair value. To
the knowledge of the Company’s management, no spectrum granted for broadcasting services in Mexico has been recovered by the Mexican government in at least the past three decades for public interest reasons. However, the Company’s management is
unable to predict the outcome of any action by IFT in this regard. In addition, these assets, by themselves, would not be enough to immediately begin broadcasting or offering satellite pay TV services or telecommunications services, as no
content producing assets or other equipment necessary to operate the business would be included.
Also, the Group’s Gaming business, which is reported in the Other Businesses segment, requires a permit granted by the Mexican Federal Government for a fixed term, subject to renewal in accordance
with Mexican law. Additionally, the Group’s Sky businesses in Central America and the Dominican Republic require concessions or permits granted by local regulatory authorities for a fixed term, subject to renewal in accordance with local laws.
The accounting guidelines provided by IFRIC 12 Service Concession Arrangements, are not applicable to the Group due primarily to the following factors:
(i) the Mexican government does not substantially control the Group’s infrastructure, what services are provided with the infrastructure and the price at which such services are offered; (ii) the Group’s broadcasting service does not constitute
a public service as per the definition in IFRIC 12; and (iii) the Group is unable to divide its infrastructure among the public (telephony and possibly Internet services) and non-public (pay TV) service components.
At December 31, 2020, the expiration dates of the Group’s concessions and permits were as follows:

In November 2018, the IFT approved the renewal of the Group’s broadcasting concessions for all of its television stations in Mexico, for a term of 20 years after the existing expiration
date in 2021. In November 2018, the Group paid for such renewal an aggregate amount of Ps.5,754,543 in cash, which included a payment of Ps.1,194 for administrative expenses and recognized this payment as an intangible asset in its
consolidated statement of financial position. This amount will be amortized in a period of 20 years beginning on January 1, 2022, by using the straight-line method (see Note 13).
|
The concessions or permits held by the Group are not subject to any significant pricing regulations in the ordinary course of business.

(c)

Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures
|
Associates are those entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control, generally those entities with a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting
rights. Investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the contractual rights and obligations of each investor. Joint ventures are those joint arrangements where the Group exercises
joint control with other stockholder or more stockholders without exercising control individually, and have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangements. Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity
method of accounting. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognized at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the investor’s share of the net assets of the investee after the date of acquisition.
The Group’s investments in associates include an equity interest in UHI represented by approximately 35.9% and 10% of the outstanding total shares of UHI as of December 31, 2020 and 2019,
respectively (see Notes 9 and 10).
If the Group’s share of losses of an associate or a joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in the investee, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. The interest in an
associate or a joint venture is the carrying amount of the investment in the investee under the equity method together with any other long-term investment that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the investee. After the
Group’s interest is reduced to zero, additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint
venture.
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Group’s Co-Chief Executive Officers (“chief operating decision makers”) who are responsible for allocating resources and assessing
performance for each of the Group’s operating segments.

Foreign Currency Translation
|
Functional and Presentation Currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“functional
currency”). The presentation and reporting currency of the Group’s consolidated financial statements is the Mexican peso, which is used for compliance with its legal and tax obligations.
Transactions and Balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or measurement where items are remeasured. Foreign
exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the statement of income as
part of finance income or expense, except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges.
Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in foreign currency classified as investments in financial instruments are analyzed between exchange differences resulting from
changes in the amortized cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the security. Translation differences related to changes in amortized cost are recognized in income or loss, and other changes in carrying amount are
recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.
Translation of Foreign Operations
The financial statements of the Group’s foreign entities that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
(a) assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of the statement of financial position; (b) income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the
cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); (c) stockholders' equity accounts are translated at the prevailing exchange
rate at the time capital contributions were made and earnings were generated and (d) all resulting translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate. Translation
differences arising are recognized in other comprehensive income or loss.
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies of non-Mexican subsidiaries that use the Mexican Peso as a functional currency are initially converted to Mexican Pesos by utilizing the exchange
rate of the statement of financial position date for monetary assets and liabilities, and historical exchange rates for non-monetary items, with the related adjustment included in the consolidated statement of income as finance income or
expense.
A portion of the Group’s outstanding principal amount of its U.S. dollar denominated long-term debt (hedging instrument, disclosed in the line item “Long-term debt, net of current portion” of
the consolidated statement of financial position) has been designated as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation in connection with the Group’s investment in shares of common stock of UHI (hedged item), which amounted to
U.S.$1,074.0 million (Ps.21,424,180) and U.S.$ 433.7 million (Ps. 8,189,662) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Consequently, any foreign exchange gain or loss attributable to this designated hedging long-term debt is credited or
charged directly to other comprehensive income or loss as a cumulative result from foreign currency translation (see Note 10).
A portion of the Group’s outstanding principal amount of its U.S. dollar denominated long-term debt (hedging instrument, disclosed in the line item “Long-term debt, net of current portion” of
the consolidated statement of financial position) was designated as a fair value hedge of foreign exchange exposure related to its investment in warrants that were exercisable for common stock of UHI (hedged item) through December 29, 2020,
the date on which the Group exercised all of these warrants for common stock of UHI, which amounted to Ps.17,387,699 million (U.S.$871.6 million) as of December 29, 2020 and Ps.33,775,451 million (U.S.$1,788.6 million) as of December 31,
2019. Consequently, any foreign exchange gain or loss attributable to this designated hedging long-term debt was credited or charged directly to other comprehensive income or loss through December 29, 2020, along with the recognition in the
same line item of any foreign currency gain or loss of this investment in warrants designated as a hedged item through that date (see Notes 9, 14 and 18).
A portion of the Group’s outstanding principal amount of its U.S. dollar denominated long-term debt (hedging instrument, disclosed in the line item “Long-term debt, net of current portion” of
the consolidated statement of financial position) has been designated as a fair value hedge of foreign exchange exposure related to its investment in Open-Ended Fund (hedged item), which amounted to Ps.1,135,803 (U.S.$56.9 million) and
Ps.4,688,202 (U.S.$248.3 million), as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Consequently, any foreign exchange gain or loss attributable to this designated hedging long-term debt is credited or charged directly to other comprehensive
income or loss, along with the recognition in the same line item of any foreign currency gain or loss of this investment in Open-Ended Fund designated as a hedged item (see Notes 9, 14 and 18).
Beginning on January 1, 2018, the Group adopted the hedge accounting requirements of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”) for all of its hedging
relationships. This IFRS Standard became effective on that date.

|
Cash and Cash Equivalents
|
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition. Cash is stated at nominal value
and cash equivalents are measured at fair value, and the changes in the fair value are recognized in the statement of income.
As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, cash equivalents primarily consisted of fixed short-term deposits and corporate fixed income securities denominated in U.S. dollars and Mexican pesos, with an
average yield of approximately 0.38% for U.S. dollar deposits and 5.40% for Mexican peso deposits in 2020, and approximately 2.20% for U.S. dollar deposits and 8.09% for Mexican peso deposits in 2019.
|
(g)
|
Transmission Rights and Programming
|
Programming is comprised of programs, literary works, production talent advances and films.
Transmission rights and literary works are valued at the lesser of acquisition cost and net realizable value. Programs and films are valued at the lesser of production cost, which consists of
direct production costs and production overhead, and net realizable value. Payments for production talent advances are initially capitalized and subsequently included as direct or indirect costs of program production. Transmission rights are
recognized from the point of which the legally enforceable license period begins. Until the license term commences and the programming rights are available, payments made are recognized as prepayments.
The Group’s policy is to capitalize the production costs of programs which benefit more than one annual period and amortize them over the expected period of future program revenues based on the
Company’s historical revenue patterns and usage for similar productions.
Transmission rights, programs, literary works, production talent advances and films are recorded at acquisition or production cost. Cost of sales is calculated and recorded for the month in
which such transmission rights, programs, literary works, production talent advances and films are matched with related revenues.
Transmission rights are recognized in income over the lives of the contracts. Transmission rights in perpetuity are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of the expected benefit as
determined by past experience, but not exceeding 25 years.
Inventories of paper, magazines, materials and supplies for maintenance of technical equipment are recorded at the lower of cost or its net realization value. The net realization value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of
business, less estimated costs to conduct the sale. Cost is determined using the average cost method.
Beginning on January 1, 2018, the Group classifies its financial assets in accordance with IFRS 9 which became effective on that date. Under the guidelines of IFRS 9, the Group classifies
financial assets as subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or loss (“FVOCIL”), or fair value through income or loss (“FVIL”), based on the Company’s business model for managing the financial
assets and the contractual cash flows characteristics of the financial asset.
Financial Assets Measured at Amortized Cost
Financial assets are measured at amortized cost when the objective of holding such financial assets is to collect contractual cash flows, and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise
on specified dates to cash flows that are only payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. These financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs and subsequently carried at amortized
cost using the effective interest rate method, with changes in carrying value recognized in the consolidated statement of income in the line which most appropriately reflects the nature of the item or transaction. They are included in current
assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period that are included in non-current assets. The Group’s financial assets measured at amortized costs are primarily presented as “trade notes and accounts
receivable”, “other accounts and notes receivable”, and “due from related parties” in the consolidated statement of financial position (see Note 7).
Financial Assets Measured at FVOCIL
Financial assets are measured at FVOCIL when the objective of holding such financial assets is both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and the contractual terms of the
financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
The Group’s investments in certain equity instruments have been designated to be measured at FVOCIL, as permitted by IFRS 9 (see Note 28). In connection with this designation, any amounts
presented in consolidated other comprehensive income are not subsequently transferred to consolidated income. Dividends from these equity instruments are recognized in consolidated income when the right to receive payment of the dividend is
established, and such dividend is probable to be paid to the Group.
Financial Assets at FVIL
Financial assets at FVIL are financial assets held for trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives
are also categorized as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current assets if expected to be settled within 12 months, otherwise they are classified as non-current.
Impairment of Financial Assets
From January 1, 2018, the Group assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its financial assets carried at fair value through other comprehensive income or
loss. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
For trade receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognized from initial recognition of the receivables (see
Note 7).
Offsetting of Financial Instruments
Financial assets are offset against financial liabilities and the net amount reported in the consolidated statement of financial position if, and only when the Group: (i) currently has a legally
enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts; and (ii) intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liability simultaneously.
|
(j)
|
Property, Plant and Equipment
|
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at acquisition cost.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item
will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to income or loss during the financial period in which they are
incurred.
Land is not depreciated. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is based upon the carrying value of the assets in use and is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the asset, as follows:

|
|
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognized within other income or expense in the consolidated statement of income.
If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.
Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following: the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any
lease incentives received, any initial direct costs and restoration costs.
Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term on a straight – line basis. If the Group is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase
option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the underlying asset’s useful life.
Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and vehicles and mostly leases of low-value assets are recognized on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term
leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less.
|
(l)
|
Intangible Assets and Goodwill
|
Intangible assets and goodwill are recognized at acquisition cost. Intangible assets and goodwill acquired through business combinations are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition.
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, which include, trademarks, concessions, and goodwill, are not amortized, and subsequently recognized at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are
amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

|
|
Trademarks
The Group determines its acquired trademarks to have an indefinite life when they are expected to generate net cash inflows for the Group indefinitely. Additionally, the Group considers that there
are no legal, regulatory or contractual provisions that limit the useful lives of trademarks. The Group has not capitalized any amounts associated with internally developed trademarks.
Concessions
The Group defined concessions to have an indefinite life due to the fact that the Group has a history of renewing its concessions upon expiration, has maintained the concessions granted by the
Mexican government, and has no foreseeable limit to the period over which the assets are expected to generate net cash inflows. In addition, the Group is committed to continue to invest for the long term to extend the period over which the
broadcasting and telecommunications concessions are expected to continue to provide economic benefits.
Any fees paid by the Group to regulatory authorities for concessions renewed are determined to have finite useful lives and are amortized on a straight-live basis over the fixed term of the
related concession.
Goodwill
Goodwill arises on the acquisition of a business and represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the Group’s interest in net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and
contingent liabilities of the acquiree and the fair value of the non-controlling interest in the acquiree.
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the cash generating units (“CGUs”), or groups of CGUs, that are expected to benefit from
the synergies of the combination. Each unit or group of units to which the goodwill is allocated represents the lowest level within the entity at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.
Goodwill impairment reviews are undertaken annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The carrying value of goodwill is compared to the
recoverable amount, which is the higher between the value in use and the fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment of goodwill is recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of income and is not subject to be reversed in
subsequent periods.
|
(m)
|
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
|
The Group reviews for impairment the carrying amounts of its long-lived assets, tangible and intangible, including goodwill (see Note 13), at least once a year, or whenever events or changes in
business circumstances indicate that these carrying amounts may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an
asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. To determine whether an impairment exists, the carrying value of the reporting unit is compared with its recoverable amount. Fair value estimates are based on quoted market values in
active markets, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, the estimate of fair value is based on various valuation techniques, including discounted value of estimated future cash flows, market multiples or third-party appraisal
valuations. Any impairment of long-lived assets other than goodwill may be subsequently reversed under certain circumstances.

|
Trade Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses
|
Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade accounts payable and
accrued expenses are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses are presented as a single item of consolidated current liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2020 and
2019.
Debt is recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Debt is subsequently carried at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and
the redemption value is recognized in the consolidated statement of income over the period on which the debt is outstanding using the effective interest method.
Fees paid on the establishment of debt facilities are recognized as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this
case, the fee is deferred until the draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalized as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortized
over the period of the facility to which it relates.
Current portion of long-term debt and interest payable are presented as a separate line item in the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.
Debt early redemption costs are recognized as finance expense in the consolidated statement of income.

Customer Deposits and Advances
|
Customer deposits and advance agreements for advertising services provide that customers receive prices that are fixed for the contract period for advertising time in the Group’s platforms based on rates established by the Group. Such
rates vary depending on when the advertisement is made, including the season, hour, day and type of programming.
The Group recognizes customer deposits and advance agreements for advertising services in the consolidated statement of financial position when these agreements are executed either with a consideration in cash paid by customers or with
short-term non-interest bearing notes received from customers in connection with annual (“upfront basis”) and from time to time (“scatter basis”) prepayments (see Note 7). In connection with the initial adoption of IFRS 15 Revenues from Contracts with Customers (“IFRS 15”) in the first quarter of 2018 (see Note 2 (s)), customer deposits and advances agreements are presented by the Group as a contract liability in the
consolidated statement of financial position when a customer pays consideration, or the Group has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional, before the Group transfers services to the customer. Under the guidelines of this
standard, a contract liability is a Group’s obligation to transfer services or goods to a customer for which the Group has received consideration, or an amount of consideration is due, from the customer. In addition, the Group recognizes
contract asset upon the approval of non-cancellable contracts that generate an unconditional right to receive cash consideration prior to services being rendered. The Company’s management has consistently recognized that an amount of
consideration is due, for legal, finance and accounting purposes, when a short-term non-interest bearing note is received from a customer in connection with a deposit or advance agreement entered into with the customer for advertising
services to be rendered by the Group in the short term.
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the
obligation, and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value
of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provisions due to passage of time is recognized as interest expense.
The capital stock and other equity accounts include the effect of restatement through December 31, 1997, determined by applying the change in the Mexican National Consumer Price Index between
the dates capital was contributed or net results were generated and December 31, 1997, the date through which the Mexican economy was considered hyperinflationary under the guidelines of IFRS Standards. The restatement represented the amount
required to maintain the contributions and accumulated results in Mexican Pesos in purchasing power as of December 31, 1997.
Where any company in the Group purchases shares of the Company’s capital stock (shares repurchased), the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs is deducted
from equity attributable to stockholders of the Company until the shares are cancelled, reissued, or sold. Where such shares repurchased are subsequently reissued or sold, any consideration received, net of any directly attributable
incremental transaction costs, is included in equity attributable to stockholders of the Company.
In connection with the initial adoption of IFRS 15, in the first quarter of 2018, the Company’s management: (i) reviewed significant revenue streams and identified certain effects on revenue
recognition in the Group’s Cable and Sky segments, as discussed below; (ii) used the retrospective cumulative effect, which consists in recognizing any cumulative adjustment resulting from the new standard at the date of initial adoption in
consolidated equity; and (iii) did not restate the comparative information for prior years, which was reported under the revenue recognition IFRS Standard in effect in those periods (see Note 28).
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for services provided. The Group recognizes revenue when the amount of revenue
can be reliably measured; when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity; and when specific criteria have been met for each of the Group’s activities, as described below. The Group bases its estimate of return on
historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.
The Group derives the majority of its revenues from media and entertainment-related business activities both in Mexico and internationally. Revenues are recognized when the service is provided and
collection is probable. A summary of revenue recognition policies by significant activity is as follows:
|
•
|
Cable television, internet and telephone subscription, and pay-per-view and installation fees are recognized in the period in which the services are rendered. Beginning on January 1,
2018, in accordance with IFRS 15, incremental costs for obtaining contracts with customers, primarily commissions, are recognized as assets in the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position and amortized in the expected life
of contracts with customers.
|
|
•
|
Revenues from other telecommunications and data services are recognized in the period in which these services are provided. Other telecommunications services include long distance and
local telephony, as well as leasing and maintenance of telecommunications facilities.
|
|
•
|
Sky program service revenues, including advances from customers for future direct-to-home (“DTH”) program services, are recognized at the time the service is provided. Beginning on
January 1, 2018, in accordance with IFRS 15, certain incremental costs for obtaining contracts with customers, primarily commissions, are recognized as assets in the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position and amortized
in the expected life of contracts with customers.
|
|
•
|
Advertising revenues, including deposits and advances from customers for future advertising, are recognized at the time the advertising services are rendered.
|
|
•
|
Revenues from program services for network subscription and licensed and syndicated television programs are recognized when the programs are sold and become available for broadcast.
|
|
•
|
Revenues from magazine subscriptions are initially deferred and recognized proportionately as products are delivered to subscribers. Revenues from the sales of magazines are recognized
on the date of circulation of delivered merchandise, net of a provision for estimated returns.
|
|
•
|
Revenues from publishing distribution are recognized upon distribution of the products.
|
|
•
|
Revenues from attendance to soccer games, including revenues from advance ticket sales for soccer games and other promotional events, are recognized on the date of the relevant event.
|
|
•
|
Motion picture production and distribution revenues are recognized as the films are exhibited.
|
|
•
|
Gaming revenues consist of the net win from gaming activities, which is the difference between amounts wagered and amounts paid to winning patrons and are recognized at the time of such
net win.
|
In respect to sales of multiple products or services, the Group evaluates whether it has fair value evidence for each deliverable in the transaction. For example, the Group sells cable television,
internet and telephone subscription to subscribers in a bundled package at a rate lower than if the subscriber purchases each product on an individual basis. Subscription revenues received from such subscribers are allocated to each product in
a pro-rata manner based on the fair value of each of the respective services.
Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method. When a loan and receivable is impaired, the Group reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated
future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of the instrument, and continues unwinding the discount as interest income. Interest income on impaired loan and receivables is recognized using the original effective interest
rate.
Pension and Seniority Premium Obligations
Plans exist for pensions and seniority premiums (post-employment benefits), for most of the Group’s employees funded through irrevocable trusts. Increases or decreases in the consolidated
liability or asset for post-employment benefits are based upon actuarial calculations. Contributions to the trusts are determined in accordance with actuarial estimates of funding requirements. Payments of post-employment benefits are made by
the trust administrators. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using
interest rates of government bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension obligation.
Remeasurement of post-employment benefit obligations related to experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions of post- employment benefits are recognized in the period in which
they are incurred as part of other comprehensive income or loss in consolidated equity.
Profit Sharing
The employees’ profit sharing required to be paid under certain circumstances in Mexico, is recognized as a direct benefit to employees in the consolidated statements of income in the period in
which it is incurred.
Termination Benefits
Termination benefits, which mainly represent severance payments by law, are recorded in the consolidated statement of income. The Group recognizes termination benefits at the earlier of the
following dates: (a) when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits; and (b) when the entity recognizes costs for a restructuring that involves the payment of termination benefits.
The income tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred income tax. Income tax is recognized in the consolidated statement of income, except to the extent that it relates to items
recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the income tax is recognized in other comprehensive income.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date in the countries where the Company and its
subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns and establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
Deferred income tax is recognized, using the balance sheet liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the
consolidated financial statements. However, deferred income tax liabilities are not recognized if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill; deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset
or liability in a transaction (other than in a business combination) that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable income or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been
enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is recovered or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences and tax loss carryforwards
can be utilized. For this purpose, the Group takes into consideration all available positive and negative evidence, including factors such as market conditions, industry analysis, projected taxable income, carryforward periods, current tax
structure, potential changes or adjustments in tax structure, and future reversals of existing temporary differences.
Deferred income tax liabilities are provided on taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, except for deferred income tax
liabilities where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred income tax assets are provided on
deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable income against which to utilize the benefit of the temporary
difference and it is expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income taxes
assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.

Derivative Financial Instruments
|
The Group recognizes derivative financial instruments as either assets or liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial position and measures such instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a
derivative financial instrument depends on the intended use of the derivative financial instrument and the resulting designation. For a derivative financial instrument designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of such
derivative’s gain or loss is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income or loss and subsequently reclassified into income when the hedged exposure affects income. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is reported in
income immediately. For a derivative financial instrument designated as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change together with the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributed to the risk
being hedged. When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument that has been recognized in other comprehensive income remains in equity until the forecast transaction
occurs. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately reclassified to income or loss. For derivative financial instruments that are not designated as
accounting hedges, changes in fair value are recognized in income in the period of change. During the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, certain derivative financial instruments qualified for hedge accounting (see Note 15).
Comprehensive income for the period includes the net income for the period presented in the consolidated statement of income plus other comprehensive income for the period reflected in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Share-based Payment Agreements
|
Key officers and employees of certain subsidiaries of the Company have entered into agreements for the conditional sale of Company’s shares under the Company’s Long-Term Retention Plan (“LTRP”). The share-based compensation expense is
measured at fair value at the date the equity benefits are conditionally sold to these officers and employees, and is recognized as a charge to consolidated income (administrative expense) over the vesting period. The Group recognized a
share-based compensation expense of Ps.984,356, Ps.1,129,644 and Ps.1,327,549 for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively, of which Ps.962,806, Ps.1,108,094 and Ps.1,305,999 was credited in consolidated stockholders’
equity for those years, respectively (see Note 17).
Through December 31, 2018:
|
•
|
The determination of whether an arrangement was, or contained, a lease was based on the substance of the arrangement and required an assessment of whether the fulfillment of the
arrangement was dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and whether the arrangement conveyed the right to use the asset.
|
|
•
|
Leases of property, plant and equipment and other assets where the Group held substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership were classified as finance leases. Finance lease
assets were capitalized at the commencement of the lease term at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the lease asset. The obligations relating to finance leases, net of finance charges
in respect of future periods, were recognized as liabilities. The interest element of the finance cost was charged to the consolidated statement of income over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest
on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases was depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease term.
|
|
•
|
Leases where a significant portion of the risks and rewards were held by the lessor were classified as operating leases. Rentals were charged to the consolidated statement of income on
a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
|
|
•
|
Leasehold improvements were depreciated at the lesser of its useful life or contract term.
|
In the first quarter of 2019, the Group adopted IFRS 16 Leases (“IFRS 16”), which became effective for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2019 (see
Note 28). The Group does not apply this new IFRS Standard to short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, as permitted by the guidelines of IFRS 16.
On adoption of IFRS 16, the Group recognized lease liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as operating leases under the principles of IAS 17 Leases (“IAS 17”). These liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee´s incremental borrowing rate
as of January 1, 2019. The average lessee’s incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities on January 1, 2019 was 4.7% and 10.6% for U.S. dollars leases and Mexican pesos leases, respectively.

New and Amended IFRS Standards
|
The Group adopted IFRS 16 in 2019, which became effective on January 1, 2019 (see Notes 2 (k), 2 (z) and 28). The Group adopted IFRS 15 and IFRS 9 in 2018, which became effective on January 1,
2018 (see Notes 2 (i), 2 (t) and 28). Some other amendments and improvements to certain IFRS Standards became effective on January 1, 2020, 2019 and 2018, and they did not have any significant impact on the Group’s consolidated financial
statements.
Below is a list of the new and amended IFRS Standards that have been issued by the IASB and are effective for annual periods starting on or after June 1, 2021.

(1) This new or amended IFRS Standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.
(2) This new or amended IFRS Standard is not expected to be applicable to the Group’s consolidated financial statements.
Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture, were issued in September 2014 and
address and acknowledge inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 and those in IAS 28 (2011), in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. The main consequence of the
amendments is that a full gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involved a business (whether it is housed in a subsidiary or not). A partial gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involved assets that do not constitute a business,
even if these assets are housed in a subsidiary. In December 2015, the IASB postponed the effective date of these amendments indefinitely pending the outcome of its research project on the equity method of accounting.
IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts (“IFRS 17”) was issued in May 2017 and amended in June 2020. IFRS 17 supersedes IFRS 4 Insurance
Contracts (“IFRS 4”), which has given companies dispensation to carry on accounting for insurance contracts using national accounting standards, resulting in a multitude of different approaches. IFRS 17 establishes principles for the
recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosures of insurance contracts issued. It also requires similar principles to be applied to reinsurance contracts with discretionary participation features issued. IFRS 17 solves the comparison
problems created by IFRS 4 by requiring all insurance contracts to be accounted for in a consistent manner. Under the provisions of IFRS 17, insurance obligations will be accounted for using current values instead of historical cost. Amendments
to IFRS 17 were issued in June 2020 aimed at helping companies implement the Standard and making it easier for them to explain their financial performance. The fundamental principles introduced when IFRS 17 was issued in May 2017 remained
unaffected. IFRS 17 is effective on January 1, 2023, and earlier application is permitted.
Amendments to IAS 1 Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current were issued in January 2020, and clarify one of the criteria in IAS 1 for
classifying a liability as non-current that is, the requirement for an entity to have the right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. An entity shall apply these amendments for annual reporting
periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023 retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8. Earlier application is permitted.
Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018-2020, were issued in May 2020, and make minor amendments to certain IFRS Standards. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after
January 1, 2022. Earlier application is permitted. The following table shows the IFRS Standards amended and the subject of the amendments.

Amendments to IFRS 3 Reference to the Conceptual Framework, were issued in May 2020, and update a reference in IFRS 3 Business Combinations to the
Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting without changing the accounting requirements for business combinations.
Amendments to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before Intended Use, were issued in May 2020, and prohibit a company from deducting from the
cost of property, plant and equipment amounts received from selling items produced while the company is preparing the asset for its intended use. Instead, a company will recognize such sales proceeds and related cost in income or loss.
Amendments to IAS 37 Onerous Contracts – Cost of Fulfilling a Contract, were issued in May 2020, and specify which costs a company includes when assessing
whether a contract will be loss-making, under the guidelines of IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets.
Amendment to IFRS 16 Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions was issued in May 2020, and exempts lessees from having to consider individual lease contracts to
determine whether rent concessions (i.e. temporary rent reductions) occurring as a direct consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic are lease modifications, and allows lessees to account for such rent concessions as if they were not lease
modifications. It applies to Covid-19-related rent concessions that reduce lease payments due on or before June 30, 2021. IFRS 16 specifies how lessees should account for changes in lease payments, including concessions. However, applying those
requirements to a potentially large volume of Covid-19-related rent concessions could be practically difficult, especially in the light of the many challenges stakeholders face during the pandemic. This optional exemption gives timely relief to
lessees and enables them to continue providing information about their leases that is useful to investors. The amendment does not affect lessors. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after June 1, 2020. Earlier
application is permitted, including in financial statements not authorized for issue.
Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2, were issued in August 2020 as a complement to those amendments issued in September 2019 (Amendments
to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7 Interest Rate Benchmark Reform, which were focused on the accounting effects of uncertainty in the period leading up to the reform). The “interest rate benchmark reform” refers to the market-wide reform of an
interest rate benchmark (such as an interbank offered rate or IBOR), including the replacement of an interest rate benchmark with an alternative benchmark rate. Phase 2 amendments focus on the effects on financial statements when a company
replaces the old interest rate benchmark with an alternative benchmark rate as a result of the reform, The amendments in this final phase relate to: (i) changes to contractual cash flows – a company will not have to derecognize or adjust the
carrying amount of financial instruments for changes required by the reform, but will instead update the effective interest rate to reflect the change to the alternative benchmark rate; (ii) hedge accounting – a company will not have to
discontinue its hedge accounting solely because it makes changes required by the reform, if the hedge meets other hedge accounting criteria; and (iii) disclosures – a company will be required to disclose information about new risks arising from
the reform and how it manages the transition to alternative benchmark rates.
Amendments to IAS 8 Definition of Accounting Estimates, were issued in February 2021, the amendments introduced the definition of accounting estimates and included other amendments to IAS 8 to help
entities distinguish changes in accounting estimates from changes in accounting policies.
Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 Disclosure of Accounting Policies, were issued in February 2021, the Board amended paragraphs 117–122
of IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements to require entities to disclose their material accounting policy information rather than their significant accounting policies. To support this amendment
the Board also amended IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements (Materiality Practice Statement) to explain and demonstrate the application of the ‘four-step materiality process’ to
accounting policy disclosures.

Basis of Preparation and Accounting Policies
|
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group, as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020,
are unaudited, and have been prepared in accordance with the guidelines provided by the International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included herein.
These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Group’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS Standards”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), and
include, among other disclosures, the Group’s most significant accounting policies, which were applied on a consistent basis as of March 31, 2021.
These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual
financial statements; they should be read in conjunction with the Group’s audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018. There have been no significant changes in the Corporate Finance
Department of the Company or in any risk management policies since the year end.
These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance on April 20, 2021, by the Group’s Corporate Vice President of Finance.
The preparation of interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation
uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Assets that Ceased to Be Classified as Held for Sale and Disposition of Radiópolis

In July 2019, the Company announced an agreement with Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. (“Live Nation”), to dispose of its 40% equity interest in Ocesa Entretenimiento, S.A. de C.V.
(“OCEN”), a live entertainment company with operations in Mexico, Central America and Colombia. OCEN is (i) a direct associate of OISE Entretenimiento, S.A. de C.V. (“OISE Entretenimiento”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company; and
(ii) a subsidiary of Compañía Interamericana de Entretenimiento, S.A.B. de C.V. (“CIE”). The proposed disposal of OCEN was expected to be completed by the parties in the first half of 2020, through the sale of all of the outstanding shares
of OISE Entretenimiento, which net assets are comprised primarily of the 40% equity stake in OCEN. This transaction was subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and certain notifications and to the closing of
the proposed sale by CIE to Live Nation of a portion of its stake in OCEN. In consideration for the sale of the shares of OISE Entretenimiento, the Company expected to receive cash proceeds in the aggregate amount of Ps.5,206,000. As a
result of this proposed transaction, beginning on July 31, 2019, the Group classified the assets of OISE Entretenimiento, including the carrying value of its investment in OCEN as current assets held for sale in its consolidated statement
of financial position. As of December 31, 2019, the carrying value of current assets held for sale in connection with this proposed transaction amounted to Ps.694,239, of which Ps.693,970, were related to the carrying value of the
investment in OCEN. Live Nation and the Company have an open dispute in connection with a purported unilateral termination of the stock purchase agreement by Live Nation which was notified to the Company in May 2020. Beginning on May 31,
2020, the Company: (i) ceased to classify the assets of OISE Entretenimiento, including the investment in OCEN, as current assets held for sale; (ii) began to classify its equity interest in OCEN as an investment in associates and joint
ventures in its consolidated statement of financial position; (iii) recognized its share of income of OCEN, which was discontinued from August 1, through December 31, 2019, in consolidated retained earnings as of January 1, 2020 in the
amount of Ps.147,975; (iv) began to recognize its share of income or loss of OCEN for the year ended December 31, 2020; and (v) restated for comparison purposes its previously reported consolidated statement of financial position as of
December 31, 2019, which included its investment in OCEN as current assets held for sale, to conform with the current classification of this asset as investments in associates and joint ventures. (see Notes 5 and 14).
In July 2019, the Company announced a stock purchase agreement with Corporativo Coral, S.A. de C.V. (“Coral”) and Miguel Alemán Magnani as Obligor to dispose of its 50% equity interest in Sistema Radiópolis,
S.A. de C.V. (“Radiópolis”), a direct subsidiary of the Company at that date which was engaged in the Radio business, for an aggregate amount of Ps.1,248,000, as well as the payment of a dividend by Radiópolis to the Company by the closing
date of the transaction. While the sale of the Company’s equity interest in the Radio business was consummated for legal and tax purposes as of December 31, 2019, the total assets and related total liabilities of Radiópolis in the amount of
Ps.1,675,426 and Ps.432,812, respectively, as of December 31, 2019, were classified as current assets and current liabilities held for sale in the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position as of that date, as the voting interest
of the Company in Radiópolis continued to be in place until the full payment of the purchase price was made by the acquirer. In March and June 2020, the Company entered into additional agreements with Coral an its Obligor to complete this
transaction by which, among other things, the acquirer made two cash payments in March and June 2020, for the amount of Ps.603,395 and Ps.110,000, respectively, and a final cash payment in July 2020 for the amount of Ps.534,605, the Company
concluded this transaction and received the payment of a dividend from Radiópolis in the amount of Ps.285,669. As a result of this transaction the Group recognized a pre-tax gain of disposition on Radiópolis of Ps.932,449 in consolidated
other income for the year ended December 31, 2020. Following this transaction, the Group classified its former Radio operations as disposed operations in the segment information of its consolidated statements of income for the years ended
December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018. The Group did not classify its former Radio operations as discontinued operations in these consolidated statements of income, as these operations did not represent a separate major line of business in any
of those years, based on a materiality assessment performed by management (see Notes 15 and 19).

The Group has an investment in an Open-Ended Fund that has as a primary objective to achieve capital appreciation by using a broad range of strategies through investments in
securities, including without limitation stock, debt and other financial instruments, a principal portion of which are considered as Level 1 financial instruments, in telecom, media and other sectors across global markets,
including Latin America and other emerging markets. Shares may be redeemed on a quarterly basis at the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) per share as of such redemption date. The fair value of this fund is determined by using the NAV per
share. The NAV per share is calculated by determining the value of the fund assets, all of which are measured at fair value, and subtracting all of the fund liabilities and dividing the result by the total number of issued shares.
In September and December 2020, the Company redeemed a portion of its investment in Open-Ended Fund at the aggregate fair value amount of U.S.$153.7 million (Ps.3,155,643) and recognized cash proceeds from this redemption for such
aggregate amount. In March, 2021, the Company redeemed a portion of its investment in Open-Ended Fund at the aggregate fair value amount of U.S.$12.4 million (Ps.258,956) and recognized cash proceeds from this redemption for such
aggregate amount.
|
|

|
Other equity instruments include publicly traded instruments, and their fair value is determined by using quoted market prices at the valuation date. In March 2021, the Company
redeemed a portion of its investment in other equity instruments and recognized cash proceeds from this redemption for an aggregate amount of Ps.1,141,489.

The Group accounts for its investment in common stock of UHI, the parent company of Univision, under the equity method due to the Group’s ability to exercise significant influence,
as defined under IFRS Standards, over UHI’s operations. The Group has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of UHI because (i) it owns 5,701,335 Class “A” shares of common stock of
UHI, representing 35.9% of the equity of UHI on an as-converted, fully-diluted basis as of December 31, 2020, and 40.6% of the voting shares of UHI as of March 31, 2021 and December 31,2020; and (ii) it has three officers of the
Company designated as members of the Board of Directors of UHI, which is composed of nine directors. Before December 29, 2020, the date on which the Group exercised all of its outstanding warrants for common shares of UHI, the
Group had the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of UHI because (i) it owned 1,110,382 Class “C” shares of common stock of UHI, representing 10% of the outstanding total shares of
UHI and 14% of the voting shares of UHI, and 4,590,953 warrants issued by UHI, which upon their exercise, and together with the former investment in shares of UHI, represented approximately 36% on a fully-diluted, as-converted
basis of the equity in UHI; and (ii) it had three officers and one director of the Company designated as members of the Board of Directors of UHI, which was composed of 19 directors, of 22 available board seats. The Group is also
a party to a Program Licensing Agreement (“PLA”), as amended, with Univision, pursuant to which Univision has the right to broadcast certain Televisa content in the United States, and to another program license agreement pursuant
to which the Group has the right to broadcast certain Univision’s content in Mexico, in each case through 7.5 years after the Group has voluntarily sold two-thirds of its initial investment made in UHI in December 2010. On
February 25, 2020, UHI, Searchlight Capital Partners, LP (“Searchlight”), a global private investment firm, and ForgeLight LLC (“ForgeLight”), an operating and investment company focused on the media and consumer technology
sectors, announced a definitive agreement to acquire a 64% majority ownership interest in UHI from all stockholders of UHI other than the Group. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. The Group elected to retain its
approximately 36% stake in UHI’s equity upon exercise of its warrants. Under the terms of the acquisition, Searchlight and ForgeLight purchased the remaining 64% ownership interest from the other stockholders of UHI. The
transaction, which was subject to customary closing conditions including receipt of regulatory approvals, closed on December 29, 2020. In conjunction with this transaction and a related decline in the estimated fair value of the
Group’s investment in warrants issued by UHI, the Company’s management recognized an impairment loss in the amount of Ps.5,455,356 that decreased the carrying value of the Group’s investment in shares of UHI in the first quarter
of 2020. This impairment adjustment was accounted for in share of income or loss of associates and joint ventures in the Group’s consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2020 (see Notes 1, 4, 9, 14 and 16).

amounts can be prepaid at dates agreed by the parties before their maturities between 2023 and 2030. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, GTAC paid principal and interest to the Group in connection with this credit

Amortization charged to income for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, was Ps.575,623 and Ps.578,546, respectively. Additional amortization charged to income
for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, was Ps.116,097 and Ps.118,223, respectively, primarily in connection with amortization of soccer player rights.
In November 2018, the Mexican Institute of Telecommunications (Instituto Federal de Telecomunicaciones or “IFT”) approved the renewal of the Group’s broadcasting
concessions for all of its television stations in Mexico, for a term of 20 years after the existing expiration date in 2021. In November 2018, the Group paid in cash for such renewal an aggregate amount of Ps.5,754,543, which includes a
payment of Ps.1,194 for administrative expenses and recognized this cost as an intangible asset in its consolidated statement of financial position. This amount will be amortized in a period of 20 years beginning on January 1, 2022, by
using the straight-line method.
In the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company’s management reviewed the useful life of certain Group’s television concessions accounted for as intangible assets in
conjunction with the payment made in 2018 for renewal of concessions expiring in 2021, which amount will be determined by the IFT before the renewal date. Based on such review, the Group classified these concessions as intangible assets
with a finite useful life and began to amortize the related net carrying amount of Ps.553,505 in a period ending in 2021.
As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there was no evidence of significant impairment indicators in connection with the Group’s intangible assets in the Cable, Sky
and Content segments.

treatment of certain payments on the securities, in which case the securities will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company; and (ii) in the event of a change of control, in which case the Company may be
required to redeem the securities at 101% of their principal amount. Also, the Company may, at its own option, redeem the Senior Notes due 2025, 2026, 2037, 2040, 2043, 2046 and 2049, in whole or in part, at any time at a
redemption price equal to the greater of the principal amount of these Senior Notes or the present value of future cash flows, at the redemption date, of principal and interest amounts of the Senior Notes discounted at a fixed
rate of comparable U.S. or Mexican sovereign bonds. The Senior Notes due 2026, 2032, 2040, 2043, 2045, 2046 and 2049 were priced at 99.385%, 99.431%, 98.319%, 99.733%, 96.534%, 99.677% and 98.588%, respectively, for a yield to
maturity of 4.70%, 8.553%, 6.755%, 7.27%, 5.227%, 6.147% and 5.345%, respectively. The Senior Notes due 2025 were issued in two aggregate principal amounts of U.S.$400 million and U.S.$200 million, and were priced at 98.081% and
98.632%, respectively, for a yield to maturity of 6.802% and 6.787%, respectively. The agreement of these Senior Notes contains covenants that limit the ability of the Company and certain restricted subsidiaries engaged in the
Group’s Content segment, to incur or assume liens, perform sale and leaseback transactions, and consummate certain mergers, consolidations and similar transactions. The Senior Notes due 2025, 2026, 2032, 2037, 2040, 2045, 2046 and
2049 are registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Senior Notes due 2043 are registered with both the SEC and the Mexican Banking and Securities Commission (“Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores”

In 2017, the Company entered into long-term credit agreements with three Mexican banks, in the aggregate principal amount of Ps.6,000,000, with an annual interest rate payable on a
monthly basis of 28-day TIIE plus a range between 125 and 130 basis points, and principal maturities between 2022 and 2023. The proceeds of these loans were used primarily for the prepayment in full of the Senior Notes due 2018.
Under the terms of these loan agreements, the Company is required to: (a) maintain certain financial coverage ratios related to indebtedness and interest expense; and (b) comply with the restrictive covenant on certain spin-offs,
mergers and similar transactions. In July 2019, the Company entered into a credit agreement for a five-year term loan with a syndicate of banks in the aggregate principal amount of Ps.10,000,000. The funds from this loan were used
for general corporate purposes, including the refinancing of the Company’s indebtedness. This loan bears interest at a floating rate based on a spread of 105 or 130 basis points over the 28-day TIIE rate depending on the Group’s net
leverage ratio. The credit agreement of this loan requires the maintenance of financial ratios related to indebtedness and interest expense. During 2018, the Company executed a revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks,
for up to an amount equivalent to U.S.$618 million payable in Mexican pesos, which funds may be used for the repayment of existing indebtedness and other general corporate purposes. In March 2020, the Company drew down Ps.14,770,694
under this revolving credit facility, with a maturity in the first quarter of 2022, and interest payable on a monthly basis at a floating rate based on a spread of 87.5 or 112.5 basis points over the 28-day TIIE rate depending on
the Group’s net leverage ratio. This facility was used by the Company as a prudent and precautionary measure to increase the Group’s cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of uncertainty in the global and local
markets resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak. On October 6, 2020, the Company prepaid in full without penalty the principal amount of Ps.14,770,694 under this revolving credit facility. The Company retained the right to reborrow the
facility in an amount of up to the Mexican peso equivalent of U.S.$618 million, and the facility remains available through March 2022.

prepayment of Ps.2,750,000, and related accrued interest and transaction costs in the amount of Ps.68,091. Under the terms of these credit agreements, the Company is required to: (a) maintain certain financial coverage ratios

Financial Instruments
|
The Group’s financial instruments presented in the consolidated statements of financial position included cash and cash equivalents, temporary investments, accounts and
notes receivable, a long-term loan receivable from GTAC, non-current investments in debt and equity securities, securities in the form of an open-ended fund, accounts payable, outstanding debt, lease liabilities, other notes payable, and
derivative financial instruments. For cash and cash equivalents, temporary investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and the current portion of notes payable due to banks and other financial institutions, the carrying amounts
approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. The fair value of the Group’s long-term debt securities is based on quoted market prices.
The fair value of long-term loans that the Group borrowed from leading Mexican banks (see Note 9) has been estimated using the borrowing rates currently available to
the Group for bank loans with similar terms and average maturities. The fair value of non-current investments in financial instruments, and currency option and interest rate swap agreements were determined by using valuation techniques
that maximize the use of observable market data.
The carrying and estimated fair values of the Group’s non-derivative financial instruments as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, were as follows:

Seasonality of Operations
The Group’s results of operations are not highly seasonal. The Group typically recognizes a large percentage of its consolidated net sales (principally advertising) in
the fourth quarter in connection with the holiday shopping season. In 2020 and 2019, the Group recognized 28.5% and 27.8%, respectively, of its annual consolidated net sales in the fourth quarter of the year. The Group’s costs, in contrast
to its revenues, are more evenly incurred throughout the year and generally do not correlate to the amount of advertising sales.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as pandemic. Most governments in the world are implementing different
restrictive measures to contain the spread of this pandemic. This situation is significantly affecting the global economy, including Mexico, due to the disruption or slowdown of supply chains and the increase in economic uncertainty, as
evidenced by the increase in volatility of asset prices, exchange rates and decreases in long-term interest rates. During the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company’s management made an assessment of potential adverse impacts of COVID-19 in
its business segments, primarily in connection with impairment indicators and testing of significant long-lived assets, expected credit losses for accounts receivable, recovery of deferred income tax assets and workforce considerations. The
Company’s management will continue to assess the potential adverse impacts of COVID-19, including the monitoring of impairment indicators and testing, forecasts and budgets, fair values and/or estimated future cash flows related to the
recoverability of significant financial and non-financial assets of its business segments. As of the authorization date of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company’s management cannot predict the adverse
impact of COVID-19 in the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2021.
The Company´s management cannot guarantee that conditions in the bank lending, capital and other financial markets will not continue to deteriorate as a result of the
pandemic, or that its access to capital and other sources of funding will not become become constrained, which could adversely affect the availability and terms of future borrowings, renewals or refinancings. In addition, the deterioration
of global economic conditions as a result of the pandemic may ultimately reduce the demand of the Group´s products across its segments, as its clients and customers reduce or defer their spending.
Although vaccination efforts have started countrywide since January 2021, the Mexican Government is still implementing the plan to reactivate economic activities in
accordance with color-based phases determined on a weekly basis in every state of the country. Most of non-essential economic activities are open with some limitations, mainly on capacity and hours of operation. However, a significant part of
the population is still implementing social distancing and shelter-in-place policies. As a result, during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, this has affected, and is still affecting the ability of the Group´s employees, suppliers and
customers to conduct their functions and businesses in their typical manner.
As of this date given that they are considered essential economic activities, the Group has continued operating its media and telecommunications businesses uninterrupted to
continue benefiting the country with connectivity, entertainment and information, and during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Group continued with the production of new content following the requirements and health guidelines imposed by
the Mexican Government. During the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Group´s Content segment recover as a result of the easing in lockdown restrictions in some jurisdictions in which its customers are located. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Group are partially dependent on the demand for advertising from consumer-focused companies, and the COVID-19 pandemic has caused, and could further cause, advertisers to reduce or postpone their advertisement spending on its platforms.
In the Group´s Other Businesses segment, sporting and other entertainment events for which it has broadcast rights, or which it organizes, promotes and/or is located in
venues it owns, are operating with some limitations and taking the corresponding sanitary measures, and to date some of its casinos have resumed operations with reduce capacity and hours of operation. When local authorities approve the
re-opening of these venues that are still not operating, rules may be enacted including capacity and operating hours restrictions; these may affect the results of its Other Businesses segment in the following months.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the authorities may impose restrictions on non-essential activities, including but not limited to temporary shutdowns or additional
guidelines which could be expensive or burdensome to implement, which may affect the Group’s operations.
The magnitude of the impact on the Group’s businesses will depend on the duration and extent of the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact of federal, state, local and foreign
governmental actions, including continued or future social distancing, and consumer behavior in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and such governmental actions. Due to the evolving and uncertain nature of this situation, the Company´s
management is not able to estimate the full extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, but it may continue affecting the Group´s businesses, financial position and results of operations over the near, medium or long-term.
On March 5, 2018, a purported stockholder class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York
alleging securities law violations in connection with allegedly misleading statements and/or omissions in the Company’s public disclosures. The lawsuit alleges that the Company and two of its executives failed to disclose alleged involvement
in bribery activities relating to certain executives of Fédération Internationale de Football Association (“FIFA”), and wrongfully failed to disclose weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over its financial reporting as of December 31,
2016. On May 17, 2018, the Court appointed a lead plaintiff for the putative stockholder class. On August 6, 2018, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint. The Company thereupon filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On March
25, 2019, the court issued a decision denying the Company’s motion to dismiss, holding that plaintiff’s allegations, if true, were sufficient to support a claim. The parties began to exchange discovery materials, and the discovery process has
continued into 2021. On June 8, 2020, the court issued a decision denying class certification based on the inadequacy of the proposed class representative. On June 29, 2020, the court issued a decision granting class certification to a new
class representative. The Company sought permission for leave to appeal the District Court’s order. On October 6, 2020, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit denied Televisa’s request for leave to appeal the District
Court’s class certification order. The Company continues to believe that the lawsuit, and the material allegations and claims therein, are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against the lawsuit. With regard to plaintiff’s
allegations regarding FIFA, outside counsel long previously investigated the circumstances surrounding the Company’s acquisition of the Latin American media rights for the Canada, Mexico and USA 2026 FIFA World Cup and 2030 FIFA World Cup and
uncovered no credible evidence that would form the basis for liability for the Company or for any executive, employee, agent or subsidiary thereof. In particular, the Company itself made no payment to any FIFA person and in no way knew of, or
condoned, any payment by any third party to any FIFA person. The Company also notes that no proceedings have been initiated against it by any governmental agency.
On April 27, 2017, the tax authorities, initiated a tax audit to the Company, with the purpose of verifying compliance with tax provisions for the fiscal period from January 1 to
December 31, 2011, regarding federal taxes as direct subject of Income Tax (Impuesto sobre la Renta or ISR), Flat tax (Impuesto Empresarial a Tasa Única) and Value Added Tax (Impuesto al Valor Agregado). On April 25, 2018, the authorities
informed the observations determined as a result of such audit, that could entail a default on the payment of the abovementioned taxes. On May 25, 2018, by a document submitted before the authority, the Company asserted arguments and
offered evidence to undermine the authority’s observations. On June 27, 2019, the Company was notified of the outcome of the audit, in which a tax liability was determined for an amount of Ps.682 million for ISR, penalties, surcharges and
inflation adjustments. On August 22, 2019, the Company filed an administrative proceeding (recurso de revocación) against such tax liability, before the Legal area of the Tax Authorities, which is in the process of being resolved. As of the
date of this report, there are no elements to determine if the outcome would be adverse to the Company’s interests.
On June 1, 2016, the tax authority initiated a tax audit to a Company’s indirect subsidiary that carries out operations in the Gaming business, which is presented in the Other Businesses
segment, with the purpose of verifying compliance with tax provisions for the period from January 1, to December 31, 2014, regarding federal taxes as direct subject, as well as withholder. On April 24, 2017, the authorities informed the
facts and omissions detected during the development of the verification process, that could entail a default on the payment of the abovementioned taxes. On May 30, 2017, by a document submitted before the authorities, the Company’s
subsidiary asserted arguments and offered evidence to undermine the facts and omissions included in the authority’s last partial record. On June 21, 2019, such entity was notified of the outcome of the audit, in which a tax liability was
determined for an amount of Ps.1,334 million, essentially related to IEPS (Impuesto Especial sobre Producción y Servicios or Excise Tax); on August 16, 2019, an administrative proceeding (recurso de revocación) was filed before the Legal
area of the Tax Authorities. On January 7, 2021, the resolution to the administrative proceeding was notified, in which the appealed resolution was confirmed. On February 19, 2021 a claim (juicio de nulidad) against the resolution issued in
the reffered administrative proceeding was filed in the Second Regional Court of Puebla of the Federal Court of Administrative Justice (Tribunal Federal de Justicia Administrativa), which is still pending of resolution. As of the date of
this report, there are no elements to determine if the outcome would be adverse to the Company’s interests.
On August 12, 2019 the tax authority initiated a Foreign Trade Audit of one of the Company’s indirect subsidiaries (Cablebox. S.A. de C.V.), with the purpose of verifying the correct
payment of the contributions and levies on the import of the merchandise, as well as compliance with non-customs regulations and restrictions applicable to 26 foreign trade operations carried out during fiscal year 2016. On April 30, 2020,
the tax authority released the observations determined as a result of the aforementioned review, which could lead to non-compliance with the payment of the referred contributions. On April 30, 2020 the tax authority informed the facts and
omissions detected during the development of the verification process, that could entail a default on several provisions of the Customs Act (Ley Aduanera). On June 2 and 29, 2020, by several documents submitted before the authorities, the
Company’s subsidiary asserted arguments and offered evidence to undermine the facts and omissions included in the tax authority’s last partial record. On July 16 such entity was notified of the outcome of the audit, in which a tax liability
was determined for an amount of Ps.290 million for a fine consisting on 70% of the commercial value of the merchandise subject to review, due to the alleged failure to comply with the Norma Oficial Mexicana, or Official Mexican Standards
(NOM-019-SCFI-1998), as well as on the amount of the commercial value of the merchandise due to the material impossibility of the merchandise becoming property of the Federal Treasury. On August 27, 2020 an administrative proceeding
(recurso de revocación) was filed before the Legal department of the Tax Authority, which is in the process of being resolved. As of the date of this report, it is not possible to determine if the outcome would be adverse or favorable to
the Company’s interests.
The matters discussed in the previous paragraphs did not require the recognition of a provision as of March 31, 2021.
There are several legal actions and claims pending against the Group, which are filed in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of the Company’s management, none of these
actions and claims is expected now to have a material adverse effect on the Group’s financial statements as a whole; however, the Company’s management is unable to predict the outcome of any of these legal actions and claims.

Event after the Reporting Period
|
On April 13, 2021, the Group and UHI announced a definitive transaction agreement in which the Group’s content and media assets will be combined with UHI to create the largest
Spanish-language media company in the world. The resulting business will hold the largest long-form library of content in the world, a powerful portfolio of IP and global sports rights, fueled by the most prolific Spanish-language
production infrastructure. The Group will also contribute its four free-to-air channels, 27 pay-TV networks channels and stations, its Videocine movie studio and Blim TV subscription video on demand (SVOD) service; and the Televisa
trademark.
The Group will continue to capture the upside from the significant growth potential of UHI by remaining the largest shareholder in UHI with an equity stake of approximately
45%. As a part of the agreement, the Group will retain ownership of its Cable, Sky and Other Businesses segments, as well as the main real estate associated with the production facilities, the broadcasting licenses and transmission
infrastructure in Mexico.
The Group’s content assets will be contributed for approximately U.S.$4,800 million dollars. Under the terms of the agreement, UHI will pay U.S.$3,000 million in cash, U.S.$750 million in UHI common equity
and U.S.$750 million in Series B preferred equity, with an annual dividend of 5.5%. The balance is derived from other commercial considerations. The combination will be financed through U.S.$1,000 million of new Series C preferred equity
investment led by the SoftBank Latin American Fund, along with current UHI investor ForgeLight LLC, with participation from Google and The Raine Group; and U.S.$2,100 million of debt commitments.
News content production for Mexico will be outsourced from a company owned by the Azcárraga family to guarantee that news content remains in Mexican hands and is produced in Mexico. UHI will retain all
assets, IP and library related to the Group’s News division.
The transaction is expected to close in 2021, subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals in the United States and Mexico, and the Company shareholder approval. The
Board of Directors of both the Company and UHI have already approved the combination.
