Commenting on the results, Chief Executive Robert Thomson said: “The earnings report demonstrates a measure of progress as we navigate a challenging advertising market. We are continuing to be disciplined on costs, while making opportunistic investments that will extend our revenue reach. The digital transformation is certainly underway, as the acquisition of Storyful and the robust growth in digital sales at HarperCollins attest. Digital subscriptions and website traffic are on the rise at most of our sites, and revenue at REA, the online real estate company, continues to expand encouragingly.” SECOND QUARTER RESULTS The Company reported fiscal 2014 second quarter total revenues of $2.24 billion, a 4% decrease as compared to the prior year second quarter revenues of $2.32 billion. The majority of the revenue decline reflects lower advertising revenues at the News and Information Services segment, foreign exchange fluctuations and the sale of the Dow Jones Local Media Group (“LMG”), partially offset by the inclusion of FOX SPORTS Australia, which News Corp began consolidating following the Consolidated Media Holdings (“CMH”) acquisition in November 2012, and strength in the Digital Real Estate Services and Book Publishing segments.
