PARIS -- TF1, France's leading commercial broadcaster, reported a 1.7% drop in first-half sales to 1.4 billion ($1.7 billion), as advertising revenue slipped 0.9% to 881.2 million ($1 billion) year-over-year and sales of other activities fell 2.8% to 588.7 million ($714.3 million). The group said the results, which were broadly in line with analysts' expectations, were due to a fall in advertising spending in the food and cosmetics industries. Advertising market share of its premium TF1 channel was 54.1% (a slight drop from its 54.8% market share for the full year 2004), supported by healthy spending in the telecommunications, automotive and services sectors. TF1 continued to be France's most-watched channel the company said, quoting ratings from French agency Mediametrie. The channel's summer drama Dolmen hooked an average of 12 million viewers per episode, and U.S. series Lost got off to a good start, with an average of 6.4 million viewers for the first 15 episodes.
