Juuli müügitulu

Message

Kontserni juuli käive kasvas võrreldes eelmise aasta sama perioodiga 1,2%. Juuli
oli ühtlasi ka esimene kuu majanduskriisi algusest, kus ettevõtte kogukäibe     
muutus võrreldes eelmise aasta sama perioodiga oli positiivne. Online-meedia    
segmendi  kasv oli üle 20%, millest suurima panuse andis Leedu Delfi ligi       
40%-line kasv võrreldes möödunud aasta juuliga. Eesti Delfi kasv oli ligi
10%, Läti Delfi tulemus jäi eelmise aasta võrdlusperioodile alla. Samuti kasvas 
trükiteenuste segment, seda peamiselt eksportkäibe toel. Perioodiliste          
väljaannete käive jäi eelmise aasta tulemusele alla, kuid esmakordselt näitas   
reklaamikäive võrreldes eelmise aasta sama perioodiga kasvu Eesti Ekspressi ja  
Maalehe kirjastusettevõttes, Ajakirjade Kirjastuses ning Leedu ajakirjade       
kirjastuses. Õhtulehe ja Eesti Päevalehe reklaamikäive jäi eelmise aasta sama   
perioodi tulemusele alla.
