Fremantle Half-Year Revenues Down $55M As $3.3B Target Draws Closer; RTL Group Broadly Flat Overall
deadline.comFremantle‘s target to make €3B ($3.3B) in revenue every year by 2026 still has some way to go, as Poor Things and Got Talent company posted half-year turnover down €50M.
The RTL-owned production and sales group made €957M in the first six months of 2024, down from €1.07B in the comparable period a year earlier.
