Nickelodeon Honors Florida's Sarah Dewitz As The "HALO Effect" Award Recipient For January 2015

The Orlando Sentinel is reporting the exciting news that, as part of Nickelodeon's ongoing commitment to encourage young people to take positive action in their communities, Nick USA has announced fifteen-year-old Sarah Dewitz of east Orange County, Florida, as their January 2015 "HALO Effect" award recipient for her work to improve literacy rates among kids! Congratulations Sarah!!


Nickelodeon's "HALO Effect" is a year-round initiative that recognizes one deserving teen every month for their work to help and lead others (HALO) in their community. The initiative was first announced by Nick Cannon, creator, host and executive producer of the annual "HALO Awards", during the live broadcast in November 2013.

Nickelodeon's recognition brings Sarah an on-air profile on TeenNick throughout January, an interview on TeenNick.com, and a $5,000 check for her growing nonprofit organization!


Sarah is the founder of Just 1 Book, which began when she was still a Cypress Springs Elementary fourth-grader. An avid reader, she was moved by a newspaper story about poverty among children in not-so-distant neighborhoods. She figured, rightly, that if their families struggled to afford food and rent, they probably couldn't afford to buy books for their kids, either.

She set out to collect "just one book", new or used, from every student at her school to donate to the children in need. Instead, as word of her effort spread, her initial goal of 763 books brought in more than 13,000!

At last count, the tally has surpassed half a million. The books have been distributed to low-income neighborhoods throughout Central Florida, and, thanks to a partnership with the Kiwanis Club, Just 1 book is expanding to New Jersey, North Carolina and Virginia as well. Sarah also helped to launch a local bookmobile program in 2014.

"I would like for Just 1 Book to reach nationwide status," Sarah told TeenNick.com. "It is impossible to know how long this will take, but it is my hope and faith that this goal will be achieved."

For more information about Just 1 Book, please visit the organizations official website, Just1Book.org.

If you know a deserving young person you'd like to nominate for a Nickelodeon "HALO Effect" Award, please see teennick.com/shows/halo-effect for more information.

Viacom Reports Higher Revenue and Record Earnings Per Share for December 2014 Quarter

Viacom Inc. (NASDAQ: VIAB, VIA), the parent company of the Nickelodeon brand, has today, Thursday 29th January 2015, reported financial results for the quarter ending Wednesday 31st December 2014, including higher revenues in its Media Networks and Filmed Entertainment segments, helped by the successful launch of Nickelodeon Movies and Paramount Pictures' "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" movie franchise, and record adjusted diluted earnings per share.

Sumner M. Redstone, Executive Chairman of Viacom, said, "Viacom's powerful entertainment brands continue to lead the way in reaching global audiences with groundbreaking content. Our outstanding management team has positioned Viacom for continued success."

Philippe Dauman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Viacom, said, "Viacom's focus on developing popular franchise properties and constantly expanding our growing international presence drove solid top line results and record earnings per share this quarter. We continued to deliver increased revenues in our media networks operations driven by steady growth in affiliate revenues, and also benefited from Paramount Pictures' Oscar-nominated Interstellar and our very successful company-wide franchise, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

"The media business is evolving faster than ever, but our mission remains unchanged: to continually develop more and better entertainment programming and deliver it to our engaged audiences on every screen and on every platform worldwide. To maintain our leadership position, we will continue to innovate and to manage our business as effectively and efficiently as possible, embracing change and adopting new technologies to better measure and monetize our content and meet industry-wide challenges. Viacom is financially strong and extremely well positioned for the future, with the talent and the creativity to grow our core business and continue to deliver increasing value to our investors."

Quarterly revenues rose 5% to $3.34 billion, driven by increases across the business. Media Networks revenues increased 4% to $2.65 billion, due to higher affiliate fees and advertising revenues. Domestic affiliate revenues rose 8% and worldwide affiliate revenues grew 6%, primarily due to rate increases. Domestic advertising revenues declined 6%, reflecting lower ratings. Worldwide advertising revenues rose 3%, reflecting a 60% increase in international advertising revenues driven by contributions from Channel 5, which was acquired in September 2014. The 4% increase in Media Networks revenues includes an unfavorable 1% impact of foreign exchange.

Filmed Entertainment revenues grew 6% to $720 million. Released theatrically in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2014, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles remained a strong performer in the current quarter, complementing the current quarter releases and helping to drive a 6% increase in theatrical revenues and a 16% gain in home entertainment revenues. Home entertainment revenues reflect two film releases in the current quarter, compared with none in the same prior year period. License fees declined 9% resulting from the mix of available titles.

Quarterly adjusted operating income of $959 million was flat versus the prior year. Media Networks adjusted operating income declined 1% due to higher programming expenses partially offset by revenue gains. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange, Media Networks adjusted operating income was flat for the quarter. Filmed Entertainment generated an adjusted operating loss of $60 million, an improvement of 19%, as higher revenues more than offset increases in film and distribution expenses.

Quarterly adjusted net earnings attributable to Viacom declined 2%, principally due to the 4% negative impact of foreign currency exchange rates, as well as higher interest costs. Adjusted diluted earnings per share for the quarter increased 8% to $1.29, a record for the fiscal quarter ended December 31. Foreign exchange had an unfavorable $0.05 impact on adjusted diluted EPS.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2014, Viacom repurchased 10.2 million shares under its stock repurchase program, for an aggregate purchase price of $750 million. As of January 28, 2015, Viacom had $5.62 billion remaining in its $20 billion stock repurchase program. As of December 31, 2014, Viacom had 407 million shares of common stock outstanding.

At December 31, 2014, total debt outstanding, including capital lease obligations, was $13.76 billion, compared with $12.77 billion at September 30, 2014. In the quarter, the Company issued $1.0 billion of debt, a portion of which it intends to utilize for the repayment of $600 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's senior notes due February 2015. The Company's cash balances were $1.2 billion at December 31, 2014, an increase from $1.0 billion at September 30, 2014.

In additional Viacom news:

Viacom recently announced that it has extended the employment agreement of President and Chief Executive Officer Philippe Dauman through December 31, 2018. The extension adds two years to Dauman's previous contract, which ran through December 31, 2016.

Viacom International Media Networks (VIMN) UK and Ireland, home to Nickelodeon, MTV, Comedy Central and Channel 5, is preparing to call a review of its £2 million media planning and buying services, after parting company with Omnicom's PHD.

Google Inc and Viacom Inc have won the dismissal of a nationwide privacy lawsuit accusing them of illegally tracking the Internet activity of boys and girls who visited Nickelodeon's website, in order to send targeted advertising. The lawsuit claimed that Viacom secretly kept track of children under the age of 13 who streamed videos and played video games on the networks official website, nick.com, and shared what it learned with Google. It said both companies then without permission put text files known "cookies" into the children's computers, letting them gather additional information that advertisers could use. The lawsuit was brought on behalf of young children who registered to use Nick.com. But in a Jan. 20 decision, U.S. District Judge Stanley Chesler in Newark, New Jersey found no showing that Google and Viacom could identify which children streamed specific videos or played specific video games, as opposed to identifying children generally. He also found no showing that the companies engaged in "highly offensive" behavior for which they could be held liable. "Children do indeed warrant special attention and heightened protections under our laws and social norms," Chesler wrote. "Although plaintiffs have identified conduct that may be worthy of further legislative and executive attention, they have not cited any existing and applicable legal authority" to support their claims, he added. The plaintiffs had accused Viacom of violating the federal Video Privacy Protection Act, and both companies of violating a New Jersey anti-computer hacking law.

Viacom is facing renewed calls on Wall Street to reunite with its former sibling CBS ahead of a high-stakes battle with Charlie Ergen's Dish over programming fees.

Nickelodeon To Launch Direct-To-Consumer Subscription Service During Spring 2015

The Internet is about to get slimed!

Nickelodeon, the number-one entertainment brand for kids and families, will soon be offered online without the need for a cable subscription, Viacom President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Philippe Dauman announced during a conference call with analysts on Thursday 29th January 2015 to discuss the company's fourth-quarter earnings report.


Nickelodeon is part of a growing trend of networks -- cable and broadcast -- offering digital services along with traditional TV.

Dauman said "We believe this innovative service, which will have a distinct brand and will target the fast-growing mobile market, will be very attractive for parents and children."

The move makes Nickelodeon among the first pure cable channels to move into the "over-the-top" (OTT) space, in which content is streamed online for a subscription fee outside of top streaming players like Netflix, Amazon or Hulu. Premium channels like HBO and Showtime are already working on similar services, with the former announcing that it would begin selling subscriptions via the Internet sometime in 2015, and CBS also offers a streaming service. Companies like ESPN, TNT and TBS are currently available through Dish Network's Sling service, but not as standalone options. These offerings make it easier for households to drop their traditional pay-TV service and piece together their own package of video services.

The new direct-to-consumer subscription service will be introduced in March 2015, Dauman said, adding that the name of the service will also be announced then. He said more information will be released when Nickelodeon makes presentations to advertisers in February/March 2015 during Nickelodeon Upfront 2015, where Nickelodeon will also preview the networks 2015-2016 programming slate. "They would not want me to take away their thunder."

"The media business is evolving faster than ever, but our mission remains unchanged: to continually develop more and better entertainment programming," Dauman said in a letter to investors. "Viacom is financially strong and extremely well positioned for the future."

During Viacom's fourth-quarter earnings report conference call, Dauman touted how the company has been leading on the TV Everywhere front and how the company's children-friendly fare in particular have been doing well on digital channels. He said the Nick Jr. app has topped iTunes charts since launching last year.

The new service will be "geared to young viewers, quite young viewers, and their parents will very much welcome the availability of this premium subscription service," Dauman told investors. He also hints that cable and satellite distributors won't mind: Viacom is "working with our distributors very closely." But it is "premised on people spending more and more time consuming entertainment, and we're going to be a big part of their lives wherever they are viewing the content."

The service will not be branded as "Nickelodeon", the company said, but will target young viewers with its own unique brand. The company didn't detail what content the service would include, how much it will cost, and whether the new service will include advertising.

"We want to satisfy the demand that is coming from the viewers out there," he said, noting also that the service would be aimed at consumers who use mobile devices. "They want more programming. They have an insatiable appetite for great content. They want to view that content on every device that they own."

"We are seeing good demand," Dauman said. "There is no better way to reach engaged audiences for toys, for movies, for electronics, for financial services aimed at young people, there’s no better way to reach them than on our network."

Original Nickelodeon Nederland Press Release:

27. Januari 2015

Op 2 februari is het Yellow Monday: de dag van vrolijkheid!

Om te vieren dat er op 2 februari nieuwe afleveringen starten van SpongeBob hebben we Yellow Monday in het leven geroepen: een dag die staat voor blijheid en optimisme.

Op 19 januari was het Blue Monday, volgens experts de meest depressieve dag van het jaar. Nu we deze dag achter de rug hebben is het tijd voor een vrolijke dag. Daarom hebben wij 2 februari verkozen tot Yellow Monday. Deze dag staat in het teken van onze favoriete gele vriend, SpongeBob SquarePants.

De kleur geel wordt vaak geassocieerd met nieuwsgierigheid, intellect, vrolijkheid, vrijheid, en motivatie. Laat dit nou net een omschrijving zijn van SpongeBob!

Vanaf 2 februari zijn er om 17.15 elke schooldag nieuwe afleveringen van SpongeBob SquarePants te zien. In deze afleveringen gaat hij onder andere terug naar de milkshake-school en moet hij samen met Patrick voor Octo gaan zorgen wanneer deze per ongeluk weer een baby wordt.

Voor iedereen die niet genoeg kan krijgen van SpongeBob is er in het weekend van 7 en 8 februari een speciale SpongeBob marathon op Nickelodeon. Vanaf 11.30 zie je de hele dag lang afleveringen van de gele spons voorbijkomen. Als je daar niet blij van wordt…

Enkele tips om deze Yellow Monday goed door te komen: trek iets geels aan, eet een ananas, ga kwallenvissen en vergeet vooral niet te kijken naar een nieuwe aflevering van SpongeBob SquarePants om 17.15 op Nickelodeon!
