**The New York Times Company reported higher profit and revenue in the first quarter,** as it continued to grow both its digital subscriber base and its advertising business, reports [The Wall Street Journa](https://www.wsj.com/business/media/new-york-times-profit-revenue-climb-on-subscription-advertising-growth-434cd8ba?mod=Searchresults&pos=1&page=1&ref=capitolcommunicator.com)l.

According to the WSJ report: “The news-and-media company posted a profit of $87.9 million, or 54 cents a share, up from $49.6 million, or 30 cents a share, a year earlier.

“Stripping out certain one-time items, earnings were 61 cents a share, Analysts surveyed by FactSet expected adjusted earnings of 47 cents a share.

“Revenue climbed 12% to $712.2 million, topping Wall Street models for $699.9 million.

“Total subscription revenue was up 11% to $516.9 million, as higher revenue from digital-only products offset lower domestic home-delivery and single-copy revenue.

“Total advertising revenue jumped 17% to $126.8 million, which the company attributed primarily to strong marketer demand and growth in advertising supply.”

The company said it added about 310,000 net digital-only subscribers sequentially, bringing its total number of digital-only subscribers to about 12.5 million. The company ended the quarter with roughly 13.1 million total subscribers.
