At the Tagblatt Medien annual general meeting, the «Tagblatt 2008» renewal project—which is scheduled to be implemented this fall—was among the items presented.
Gottlieb F. Höpfli , Editor-in-Chief of the St. Galler Tagblatt, presented the "Tagblatt 2008" renewal project at the General Meeting, which is to be implemented in the fall of the current year. The reorganization will entail a joint desk and a central newsroom. Departmental boundaries are to be broken down and a more flexible way of working made possible, as the St. Galler Tagblatt reported on Thursday.
Tagblatt Medien achieved a good business result in 2007. The operating result increased to CHF 11 million and Group sales to CHF 150 million. According to Adrian Rüesch, Chairman of the Board of Directors, the job market was the main contributor to this. This had boosted advertising revenue.
Tagblatt Medien got off to a good start in 2008, according to the St. Galler Tagblatt. At CHF 13.9 million, advertising sales in the 1st quarter were slightly up on the previous year. The acquisition of "Toggenburger Nachrichten" contributed to this. According to CEO Hans-Peter Klauser, there are also statistical reasons why the Group result of CHF 2.6 million was lower than in the same period last year: Due to the early Easter, advertising income had shifted from March to April.
