STV owner SMG today said it is confident that its core television market will continue to move forward.
The company, which announced that it is proposing to change its name to stv group, reported that revenues at its continuing STV operations in the first half of the year were at £56 million, the same figure posted for the first half of 2007.
Operating profits before exceptional items at STV increased by £1m to £4.9m.
Overall pre-tax profits for the group, which sold Virgin Radio to TIML in June for £53.2m, dropped from £4.2m to £1m.
