The huge increase in foreign productions is attributed to the increase in the cap on film incentives to 500 m CZK in 2013, up from 300 m CZK. The incentives are open to both foreign productions and Czech productions, but according to the Czech Producers Association (APA) general manager Katerina Weissova the bulk of the incentives went to foreign productions shooting in the Czech Republic. Foreign production still has some way to go to come close to the 5 billion CZK spend in 2003, the year before Hungary introduced film incentives. The data was provided at the annual APA panel held at the Karlovy Vary IFF.

Czech domestic film production had a more modest increase to 795 m CZK, up from 739 m CZK in 2012, but below its 2008 high of 880 m CZK.

The reduction in advertising time at Czech public broadcaster Czech TV and rising prices for ad time at commercial channels Nova TV and Prima TV were some of the factors leading to a drop in advertising production. Ad production fell from 1.8 billion CZK in 2012 to 1.4 billion CZK in 2013.

Film attendance was relatively stable, dropping only 1 % to 11,057,559 admissions, but the average ticket price declined by almost 9 % to 110 CZK, leading to a drop in box office of some 10%, at 1.219 billion CZK in 2013. Czech films held a relatively good share of the market, 24%, with domestic films accounting for five of the top ten films. An increase in the number of films released (285) saw per film attendance and box office dropping.
