TVA Group Inc. (the "Company")(TSX:TVA.B) announces that it recorded net income
of $11.2 million, or $0.47 per share, for the second quarter of 2010, compared
with $15.2 million, or $0.63 per share, in the corresponding quarter of 2009.
However, the Company's consolidated operating income1 increased 4.1% to $26.2
million, compared with $25.1 million in the same quarter of 2009.
Second quarter operating highlights:
-- Restructuring costs of operations, impairment of assets and other in the
Television sector in the amount of $5,665,000 related to the
repositioning of SUN TV.
-- Increase in the Television sector's operating income of $639,000, or
2.9%, over the same quarter of last year. This increase is primarily due
to the following factors:
-- a decrease in the operating loss from TVA Films, whereas in the same
quarter of 2009 the division had recorded a charge for bad debts of
$1,350,000;
-- an increase in the operating income from commercial production
activities;
-- a decrease in the operating loss recorded by SUN TV;
partially offset by:
-- a 13.6% decrease in the operating income from specialty services, as
a direct result of the launch of the new YOOPA service on April 1,
2010.
-- an 8.5% decrease in the operating income from TVA Network, due to a
5.2% decline in advertising revenues; and
-- Growth of 12.2% in the Publishing sector's operating income against the
same year-ago quarter, from $3,287,000 in 2009 to $3,688,000 in 2010.
(1)Refer to operating income definition on the next page.
"We are pleased with the second quarter financial results, as we posted some
growth in operating income in both our business sectors in an advertising market
that remains precarious and short term. The popularity of the NHL playoffs in
Quebec this spring was a factor in TVA Network's lower advertising revenues.
However, thanks to its original programming and news coverage, TVA Network
boasted nine of the 10 most-watched programs in Quebec.2 Our specialty services
achieved 27% growth in their market shares, particularly LCN, which captured 4.0
market shares, compared with 2.5 shares for RDI, its main competitor. We are
also pleased with the agreement with our unionized employees in Montreal to
renew our collective agreement for three years." said Pierre Dion, President and
Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
"The Publishing sector's operating revenues grew by 0.6%, while operating
expenses decreased 1.9% over the same quarter of 2009, which translated into an
increase in operating income of 12.2% and a profit margin of 19.7%, compared
with 17.6% for the same quarter of 2009, while we continued to protect our
market shares," said Mr. Dion.
Cash flows provided by operating activities were $14.7 million for the quarter,
against $22.5 million for the corresponding year-ago period. The decline in cash
flows is primarily due to non-cash working capital items, in particular accounts
receivable and broadcast rights payable.
Dividend
TVA Group Inc.'s Board of Directors declared today a dividend of $0.05 per
share, payable on September 7, 2010 to Class A and B shareholders of record as
at August 20, 2010. This dividend is designated to be an eligible dividend, as
provided under subsection 89(14) of the Canada Income Tax Act and its provincial
counterpart.

Definition of operating income or operating loss
In its analysis of operating results, the Company defines operating income
(loss) as net income (net loss) before amortization of property, plant and
equipment and intangible assets, financial expenses, restructuring costs of
operations, impairment of assets and other, income taxes, non-controlling
interest and share of income of company subject to significant influence.
Operating income (loss) as defined above is not a measure of results that is
consistent with Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP").
Neither is it intended to be regarded as an alternative to other financial
performance measures or to the statement of cash flows as a measure of
liquidity.
(2)Source : BBM ratings, all 2 years old and +, from January 1st to June 13,
2010
This measure is not intended to represent funds available for debt service,
dividend payment, reinvestment or other discretionary uses, and should not be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for other performance measures
prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP. Operating income is used by the
Company because management believes it is a meaningful measure of performance.
This measure is used by senior management and the Board of Directors to evaluate
the consolidated results of the Company and the results of its sectors.
Measurements such as operating income are also commonly used by the investment
community to analyze and compare the performance of companies in the industries
in which the Company is active. The Company's definition of operating income may
not be identical to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
For the reconciliation between the operating income and the net income used in
the Company's financial statements, please refer to our interim Management's
Discussion and Analysis for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010,
available on the www.sedar.com and www.tva.canoe.ca Web sites.

Notes to consolidated financial statements
Three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 (unaudited)
(Amounts presented in the tables are expressed in thousands of dollars,
except per-share and per-option amounts)
TVA Group Inc. (the "Company"), incorporated under Part 1A of the Companies Act
(Quebec), is an integrated communications company with operations in two
business sectors: television and publishing (note 8).
1. FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") with
the exception that they do not include all disclosures required for annual
consolidated statements and accordingly should be read in conjunction with the
Company's audited annual consolidated financial statements ended December, 31,
2009 and the notes thereto. The same accounting policies described in the annual
consolidated financial statements have been used herein.
The Company's businesses experience seasonality effects due to, among other
things, seasonal advertising patterns and their influence on people's viewing,
reading and listening habits. Because the Company depends on the sale of
advertising for a significant portion of its revenue, operating results are also
sensitive to prevailing economic conditions, including changes in local,
regional and national economic conditions, particularly as they may affect
advertising expenditures. Accordingly, the results of operations for interim
periods should not necessarily be considered indicative of full-year results.
Certain comparative figures for the previous periods have been reclassified to
conform to the presentation adopted for the three-month and six-moth periods
ended June 30, 2010.

3. RESTRUCTURING COSTS OF OPERATIONS, IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS AND OTHER
During the second quarter of 2010, the Company and Sun Media Corporation, a
subsidiary of Quebecor Media Inc., announced the creation of a new partnership
(51% TVA and 49% Sun Media Corporation) for the purpose of setting up and
launching a new news and opinion specialty service called SUN TV NEWS in the
English-Canadian market in the first quarter of 2011. The Company also announced
its intention to cease operation of its existing conventional television
station, SUN TV, when the new specialty service begins broadcasting. As a result
of the repositioning, the Company recorded an impairment expense related to its
broadcast right inventories in the amount of $3,430,000 and an impairment
expense for certain equipment in the amount of $2,235,000.
During the first quarter of 2010, the Company recorded a provision for
restructuring costs of operations in its Television sector totalling $532,000
following the elimination of a number of positions. No new provision was
recorded in the second quarter of 2010.
The balance of the provision for restructuring costs of operations was
$1,387,000 as at June 30, 2010 ($981,000 as at December 31, 2009). A $126,000
payment was made in the second quarter of 2010 ($126,000 in the six-month period
ended June 30, 2010).
During the second quarter of 2009, based on new information, the Company
remeasured its provision for restructuring costs related to the production
activities of a former subsidiary and adjusted the balance downward by a total
of $124,000 ($951,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009).
In addition, during the second quarter of 2010, the Company received $760,000
following an insurance settlement related to property, plant and equipment. In
the first quarter of 2010, the Company recorded a $505,000 gain related to that
event.

Issuer bid
On March 17, 2010, the Company has filed a new notice of intent to repurchase
for cancellation between March 19, 2010 and March 18, 2011, in the normal course
of its activities, a maximum of 972,545 Class B shares which represent
approximately 5% of the Company's outstanding Class B shares. The Company
repurchases its Class B shares at the market price, at the time of the purchase,
plus brokerage fees. No shares were repurchased for cancellation in relation to
this normal course issuer bid during the first semester of 2010.
On March 17, 2009, the Company had filed a notice of intent to repurchase for
cancellation between March 19, 2009 and March 18, 2010, in the normal course of
its activities, a maximum of 985,210 Class B shares which represent
approximately 5% of the Company's outstanding Class B shares. No shares were
repurchased for cancellation in relation to this normal course issuer bid during
the first semester of 2010 (56,200 and 59,700 Class B shares respectively had
been redeemed for cancellation during the three-month and six-month periods
ended June 30, 2009 for a net cash consideration of $515,000 and $545,000
respectively).
c) Earnings per share
The following table provides the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per
share:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The diluted earnings per share calculation does not take into consideration the
potential dilutive effect of certain stock options of the Company, since their
impact is anti-dilutive. During the three-month and six-month periods ended June
30, 2010, 869,769 options of the Company's plan (975,155 in 2009) were excluded
from the diluted earnings per share calculation.

7. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
On June 27, 2009, a subsidiary of the Company, SUN TV Company, owned at 75% and
operating the television station SUN TV, entered into a fiscal consolidation
reduction transaction created July 12, 2005 with its non-controlling shareholder
Sun Media Corporation, a company under common control of its parent, Quebecor
Media Inc. To realize this transaction, SUN TV Company received a total
repayment of the Sun Media Corporation convertible bonds for $9,750,000. In
return, SUN TV Company repurchased from Sun Media Corporation all of the
preferred shares redeemable at the option of the holder, carrying a 10.85% fixed
cumulative dividend, for a total of $9,750,000. This transaction results for the
Company, on a consolidated level, in a reduced long-term investment in
convertible bonds of $9,750,000, and an equivalent reduction in redeemable

During the second quarter of 2009, our parent company, Quebecor Media Inc.,
proceeded to the liquidation of Canoe Inc., which was 86.2% owned by Quebecor
Media Inc. and 13.8% by TVA Group Inc., and its assets were distributed
proportionally to shareholders. All the transactions resulting from this
liquidation were recorded at carrying amount of assets transferred between the
related companies, and an adjustment of $7,780,000 was recorded directly to the
Company's retained earnings.
This adjustment represents the difference between the carrying amount of
$11,262,000 of the TVA Group Inc. investment in Canoe and the net carrying
amount of $3,482,000 of assets received upon liquidation, including $2,000,000
in cash, three portals including the site "Argent/Money" and their related
income tax benefits.
