Chorus losses halved in 2004

LOSSES at cable television firm Chorus nearly halved in 2004, the year the company emerged from examinership.

Accounts just filed at the Companies Registration Office (CRO) show Chorus made an operating loss of €8.6 million down from €16.1m in 2003.

Chorus was forced to seek the protection of the High Court in early 2004 after incurring heavy trading losses from its investment in building out a digital network to offer television, internet and telephone services.
