České Radiokomunikace (CRA) signs 5-year agreement with blue chip broadcaster AMC

Cordiant Digital Infrastructure Limited (the "Company"), an operationally focused investor in the core digital infrastructure that enables modern communications and the internet, announces that portfolio company CRA has signed a 5-year agreement with blue chip pay TV broadcaster AMC Networks International (AMC) a global provider of well-known content such as AMC, Film+ and Sport1.

This agreement underscores the new ways in which broadcast is being used in modern digital networks to improve efficiency, increase access and support sustainability initiatives. The agreement, effective from 1 March 2023, allows AMC channels that were up to now only available on subscription or over-the-top services to be broadcast. This was enabled by CRA's recent upgrade to next-generation DVB-T2 technology, the kind of investment that is a hallmark of Cordiant's "buy, build & grow" investing philosophy.

Málnay Levente, Executive Vice-President and CEO of AMC Networks International said, "The Czech market is key for us in the Central European region and therefore securing wider distribution for our station to an increased number of households is a strategic step. CRA has been a great partner in this effort of ours, who will make it possible for us to take the next step and open a new window in the sphere of lifestyle entertainment television."

Miloš Mastník, CEO of CRA said, "We are pleased to be adding a new channel to our digital terrestrial television broadcasting, 'Spektrum Home', which has until now been available only in pay-per-view distribution. This shows the strength and quality of the Digital Terrestrial TV platform which is available to the greatest number of households in the Czech Republic and offers all channels to viewers free of charge."
