The Financial Times’ (FT)paid print and digital circulation is up to 605,000, according to parent company Pearson, as the publication continues to manage the shift from print to digital. Nearly half of that figure subscribes to the FT’s website. as the newspaper targets subscription revenues rather than from print ads. Overall, Pearson forecasts that its profits for the first half of 2012 will be lower than the corresponding six months in 2011, as the firm incurs restructuring costs from the GBP450m (USD730.6m) sale of its 50% stake in FTSE International, which occurred in December last year.
