Vivendi half-year loss narrows


PARIS: France’s Vivendi Universal, on the mend after more than a year of turmoil, has forecast a return to profit after its losses narrowed in the first half, and said its near-term future remained in media and telecoms. 

Vivendi, home to Universal Studios and Universal Music, also said that it was on track to ink a merger of its US entertainment business with General Electric’s NBC in a few weeks and close the deal in the second quarter 2004.
