Consolidated operating revenue decreased 8% of which subscription revenues increased 7% and advertising revenue decreased by 41% this quarter over same the three months ended September 30, 2019 having a positive impact on our consolidated income for the quarter. The decline of advertising revenues compared to same three month period in 2019 continues due to businesses impacted by COVID-19 restrictions although it has increased from previous quarter ending on June 30, 2020. For the nine month period ending September 30, 2020, the decline in subscription revenue continues due to declining number of subscribers who continue to migrate to illegal IPTV set-top boxes.
