Mission Statement:

"All the news that's fit to print."

History:

2015 - Expanded its news-gathering presence in Europe and the U.K., increasing the size of its London office to accommodate up to 100 staff.

Financial Information:

The Times has faced the same headwinds that other print newspapers have encountered in making revenue from digital advertising and subscriptions replace lost revenue from its print sales and advertising. In July 2015 The Times announced that it had passed the one million digital subscribers mark.

The New York Times Company’s first-quarter, 2016 financial report showed that the company now depends on readers for 57 percent of its overall revenue, and that total company revenue was down about 1.9 percent from the same quarter the previous year. This indicated that the company's shift from reliance upon print ad revenue and print subscriptions and single copy sales to revenue from digital subscribers and digital ads was proceeding slowly.

Governance: Board / Owners / Parent organization:

The Times is publicly traded. While the Ochs and Sulzberger families own a minority equity share, they occupy a majority of the seats on the Board of Directors.
