“Our first quarter results demonstrate improved revenue quality and a leaner cost structure, giving us solid footing to navigate a challenging economic environment in the second quarter,” said Chief Executive Officer Rich Stoddart. “We have taken aggressive, swift action since April to right-size our cost structure while maintaining our ability to support our clients as business activity rebounds. We are also maintaining our focus on winning new business, with several new contracts awarded this year and significant demand for our solution in the sales pipeline.”

“The first quarter represents sustainable cost improvement supporting a base of high-quality revenue with the healthiest balance sheet the company has had in two years. We have made significant progress in our multi-year transformation, but there is still work to do to optimize the platform. We will continue to react quickly to changes in economic conditions, but this will not disrupt the groundwork we have been laying for a long future of profitable growth,” said Don Pearson, Chief Financial Officer.

Ink-Global: New deal with Transavia France

As an American friend said to me recently: “if you ain’t growing, you are shrinking”, and having given that rather asinine statement a decent amount of thought, I think that they may be right… In recent weeks, we have witnessed Time and Rolling Stone magazines change hands and getting new chunks of money, and today we are announcing that we are creating a new magazine for the European Airline Transavia France. And all of this comes on the back of the fact that we have never had a busier year both in terms of growth and advertisers flocking to our print magazines and digital products. We are all currently being bombarded by “commentators” and “journalists” saying that the print media business is over... but knowing what I know about media and travel media specifically, I think that is both a naïve and a false statement. We are currently seeing an average 3 – 5 % annual growth in passenger numbers across the airline world with some of our partners reporting increases as large as 9%. That more bums on seats and more people/eyeballs for our magazines. Click Read More below for additional information.
