According to media reports, Independent News & Media (INM) plans to re-vamp the editorial structure of its titles and implement cost-cutting measures which may result in up to 30 voluntary redundancies. This is a continuation of the company’s efforts to deploy its resources and content more efficiently and to optimise its cost base.
Newsroom re-vamp and cost-cutting measures announced

According to media reports, INM has announced a plan to re-vamp the editorial structure of its national titles in the Republic of Ireland. This would involve reporters writing stories for all five of the company’s national titles: The Irish Independent, The Sunday Independent, The Herald, The Sunday World and Independent.ie. The measures are said to also include cost-cutting and a voluntary redundancy package that may result in the loss of up to 30 jobs. No details were provided on the cost of the measures or the amount that would be saved. The changes are due to be completed by July.

The changes are said to follow studies of several European newspaper groups and INM Editor-In-Chief, Stephen Rae, is quoted as saying “no single paper provides the model but INM wants to take the best practice from several titles across Europe including Germany’s Die Welt and Britain’s Daily Telegraph”.
INM’s focus on efficiency continues

The measures can be seen as a continuation of the company’s focus on becoming more efficient in the deployment of its resources, capitalising on the strength of its content and the optimisation of costs.

Hi CE,

I'll happily settle for a dividend and leave this investment in the bottom drawer!

Forecasting a return to profit?

[charlie11909] 02/1/2015 09:46

Now that the CEO has forecast a substantial return to profit,
in the February results, one wonders where the professional naysayers
like LBO have gone?

Right about everything, and, wrong about nothing?

Daily Mail and General Trust , the publisher of the Daily Mail tabloid and Mail Online website, reported full-year results slightly ahead of forecasts on Wednesday and said it was well positioned to deliver long-term growth.


The group announced the results as it also took a £45m charge related to the delay of its software RMS one product.

Profit before tax in the year to the end of September was up 9pc to £291m, compared with a consensus figure of £286m, helped by the strong performance of its trade division and its consumer newspaper business, including digital advertising.

"As reported in September, RMS's operating margin is expected to be around 10pc to 15pc in full-year 2015, reflecting the delay of, and continued investment in, RMS(one).

"The board remains confident, however, that the group is well positioned to deliver its excellent long-term growth prospects."
