CEO Scott Drill stated, “Through the first six months of this year, our POPS business has been negatively impacted by the loss of Kroger at the end of 2010. However, as a result of the February 9, 2011 litigation settlement with News America, we increased the number of stores our CPG’s have access to by approximately 12,000. Not surprisingly, given our history of litigation with News America, there have been some issues in working out a smooth relationship going forward. We have a meeting scheduled with the Federal Magistrate Judge on August 19, 2011, which may not be necessary if both parties make a good faith effort to resolve the outstanding issues. We continue to be very optimistic about our long-term prospects and our relationship with Valassis is excellent.
