Publishing Revenue Down At LagarderePosted at 8:37PM Thursday 26 Aug 2010 Lagardere reported Thursday afternoon that total revenue in its publishing group fell 3.4% in the first six months of 2010, to 975 million euros, while EBIT fell about 10% to 101 million euros. The decline in both sales and earnings was mainly due to the strong worldwide sale of the Stephenie Meyer titles throughout much of 2009. Although Lagardere did not break out sales by individual group, the company reported the revenue in North America accounted for 25% (about $310 million) of worldwide sales in 2010, down from 27% in the first six months of 2009.
