CORRECTION: AS Ekspress Grupp: Sales in December
Tallinn, Estonia, 2013-01-16 15:11 CET (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- There was a mistake
in the number of the year in the first sentence of the announcement published
earlier today, 16 January 2013.The correct number of the year is 2011.
The corrected release follows:
The Group’s sales in December decreased 4.5% compared to the same period in
2011, but the result met the management board’s expectations. December results
were influenced by the absence of one active business week due to long holidays
last year.The online media segment increased the sales by 5%, but both the
sales of the periodicals and the printing services segment decreased
approximately 5%. Continuing DVD series of Estonian film classics shows a
positive trend, which also contributes to single-copy sales of Eesti Päevaleht.
In the printing services segment, the paper sales and such other decreased the
most. The printing sales decreased by 1% compared to the same period a year
earlier.
