2020
Revenues were up 22.5% year-on-year at constant rate, and 22.6% at current exchange rate. Excluding the Post-production business divested in April 2021, year-on-year revenue growth at constant rate would have been 37.2%. This improvement, notably in the second half, resulted from a surge in demand for original content for all the business lines compared with a year 2020 which suffered from pandemic-related impacts on production in Hollywood and around the world.
