The radio’s target group is defined to a certain extent by its basic programming focus on brief and quick news, a complete, strong traffic information service and music format with a strong emphasis on popular and tried and tested hits. As the first radio station in Slovakia, it began regularly testing its music archive and all newly-played songs.

Radio Expres broadcasts via its own network of transmitters with coverage of 87.2% of the Slovak territory. The built-up network allows individual transmitters or groups to be disconnected from the main current and thus for specific news to be broadcast in a local (regional) regime.

The 100% owner of the D.Expres a.s. company and holder of Radio Expres’s broadcasting licence has been the [[Emmis Communications|EMMIS International Broadcasting Company]] (USA) since 2007. D.Expres, a.s., together with its two subsidiary companies - Expres Media, s.r.o. (marketing and advertising space sales) and Expres Net, s.r.o. (technical support and transmitter operation) - employs over one hundred people.

Since its creation in 2000, the station has registered a record growth in popularity and in its listener base.
At present, its nationwide listening rate exceeds 21%, which represents almost 900,000 listeners daily
(MML-TGI SR 2007/II, Median SK).
