ProSiebenSat.1 Media SE (ISIN DE000PSM7770) was trading at EUR 3.29 at Lang & Schwarz on October 6, 2026 at 2:41 p.m. CEST, up 4.78 percent versus the prior close of EUR 3.14. The company appointed Ingrid Heisserer as Group CFO effective February 1, 2027, according to its release dated September 16, 2026.

Heisserer takes over in February

ProSiebenSat.1 said on September 16, 2026 that Heisserer will succeed interim CFO Bob Rajan. She previously served as CFO and Chief Human Resources Officer of RTL Deutschland, while Rajan will remain in the interim role until the transition.

The appointment gives the group a finance chief with experience in media transformation, streaming, portfolio simplification and cost reduction. For investors, the timing matters because the company is simultaneously reshaping its portfolio and emphasizing profitability.

Profitability improves despite lower revenue

ProSiebenSat.1 reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of EUR 768.0 million, down 9.00 percent from EUR 840.0 million in the prior-year quarter, according to the Yahoo Finance transcript of the August 6, 2026 earnings call. EBITDA rose by EUR 102.0 million in the quarter and by EUR 152.0 million in the first half of 2026 compared with the respective prior-year periods.

The contrast is material: reported revenue declined, but cost discipline lifted EBITDA to EUR 81.0 million in the second quarter of 2026 from negative EBITDA a year earlier. Management also confirmed full-year 2026 guidance, including significant year-over-year EBITDA growth and leverage of 3.00 to 3.50 times EBITDA.

Third-quarter date is November 12

The next scheduled reporting milestone is November 12, 2026. EQS News reported on September 21, 2026 that ProSiebenSat.1 will publish its quarterly statement for the third quarter on that date.

That report will test whether the first-half profitability improvement can continue while television advertising remains under pressure. The current valuation also leaves a wide trading gap: the EUR 3.29 Lang & Schwarz price sits within the 52-week range of EUR 3.10 to EUR 8.53 as of October 6, 2026.
