About this Sustainability Report

The Communications Department prepared this report in accordance with the principles of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI 4 version) and the media sector supplement.

It covers the year of 2015.

The corporate perimeter covers all Vocento companies which are included in the annual accounts, except for Localprint.

Compared to the report for 2014, changes to the perimeter include:

  • Localprint. Not included this year, although it appears in the annual report of Vocento, as it is not a company that Vocento manages directly although it owns an equity stake.
  • In September 2015, Veralia Contenidos Audiovisuales S.L.U. sold its entire shareholding in Europroduzione S.L.R., which left the corporate perimeter, generating a capital loss of 1,255 thousand euros. This transactions reflects the Group’s commitment to profitability and its decision to focus its content production business in Spain.

The report has been prepared using the G4 guidelines and the guidelines of the media supplement. Questionnaires on material issues were sent to internal stakeholders and interviews have been held with managers of various areas.

Vocento will continue to publish yearly sustainability reports.

The information included in this report is internal and complies with the procedures and practices of Vocento and group companies, except for circulation data which is taken from the OJD, as indicated in the charts. It is made clear when a piece of information provided is not complete or not applicable.

In the report we have added more information and details to various items that were not published in previous reports. We intend to increase our transparency and provide more detail in our subsequent Sustainability Reports.

In the figures provided for Value generated, distributed and retained, we have changed the criteria for data to adapt better to the GRI G4 model. The 2014 figures have been adapted as a consequence of this and to facilitate comparison between the two years.

In general, the numbers provided are those for the consolidated group. Regional data is presented when we believe this contributes greater clarity and transparency.

The content of this report has not been subject to external certification. In accordance with regulations and internal procedures, the document is subject to Internal Audit.

For any clarification, query, constructive criticism or suggestion for improvement, we have a special email address that is managed by the Communications Department and where we welcome feedback:
