Message

Tallinn, Eesti, 2011-03-10 11:32 CET (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

ASi Ekspress Grupp käive kasvas veebruaris 19,1% võrreldes eelmise aasta sama
perioodiga. Võimsa tulemuse tegi trükiteenuste segment, kasvades 25,4% ja seda
ekspordi toel. Online-meedia segment kasvas 30,1%. Segmendi kasvu vedas Delfi
Leedu peamiselt Leedus toimunud kohalike valimiste toel. Eestis ja Lätis oli

kasvajad reklaamikäibes olid Grupi Leedu ajakirjade kirjastus, Eesti ajakirjade
kirjastus ning Õhtuleht. Tellimuste ja üksikmüügi käive jäi langusesse kõigil
kirjastusettevõtetel.
