updates: ITV Studios revenues fell 16% to £382 million in Q1 2024 due to the impact of the 2023 US writers' and actors' strike. The strike, one of the longest in the industry's history, halted productions and caused shockwaves across Hollywood and globally. ITV expects Studios' revenues to fall again in Q2. The division is also affected by weaker demand from European free-to-air broadcasters. ITV had previously warned that the strikes would delay around £80 million of revenues from 2024 to 2025. However, it now expects ITV Studios revenues to be broadly flat overall in 2024. Total advertising revenues rose 3% in Q1, but total revenues for the production business were down 7% at £887 million. ITV chief executive Carolyn McCall expects ITV Studios revenues to be broadly flat for the full year and anticipates £40 million of cost savings from the group's cost savings programs this year.
