This PPT slide, part of the 26-slide Porter's Five Forces PowerPoint presentation, presents an overview of the U.S. printed media revenues from 1989 to 1999, highlighting modest growth trends within the publishing industry. The bar graph illustrates total revenues segmented by newspapers, books, and magazines, with a notable focus on the compound annual growth rates (CAGR) for 2 distinct periods: 1989-1994 and 1994-1999. The figures indicate a CAGR of 4.6% for the earlier period and a slightly improved 5.7% for the latter, suggesting a gradual upward trend.

Key insights reveal that revenue growth for newspapers and magazines has primarily stemmed from price increases rather than circulation growth, which has remained stagnant or declining. This indicates a potential risk for sustainability in revenue streams as reliance on price hikes may not be a long-term solution. The slide also notes a decrease in newspapers and magazines' share of total advertising spending, dropping from 32% to 28% over 5 years, reflecting a shift in advertiser preferences.

On the other hand, the book publishing sector appears to be faring better, with stable prices and growth in unit volumes. The text emphasizes that books continue to be a favored medium for both fiction and non-fiction, despite the emergence of various substitutes. Additionally, the rise of discount stores has contributed positively to book sales, suggesting a shift in consumer purchasing behavior.

The final point underscores the internet's role as an innovative distribution channel, presenting opportunities for magazines and newspapers to regain readership and attract advertisers. This dual focus on challenges and opportunities provides a comprehensive snapshot of the publishing industry's current state and future potential.
