Digital revenues at Dow Jones in the quarter represented 74 percent of total revenues compared to 68 percent in the prior year.
Circulation and subscription revenues increased $26 million, or 9 percent, including a $4 million, or 2 percent, positive impact from foreign currency fluctuations. Circulation revenue grew 8 percent, reflecting the continued strong growth in digital-only subscriptions, partially offset by lower single-copy and amenity sales related to COVID-19.
During the third quarter, Dow Jones saw the highest year-over-year increase in total subscriptions and digital-only subscriptions for both The Journal and total Dow Jones’ consumer products in its history.
Total subscriptions to Dow Jones’ consumer products reached a record 4.27 million average subscriptions for the quarter, a 19 percent increase compared to the prior year, of which digital-only subscriptions grew 29 percent.
Total subscriptions to The Journal grew 21 percent compared to the prior year, to a record 3.38 million average subscriptions in the quarter. Digital-only subscriptions to The Journal grew 29% to 2.63 million.
