May ABC circulation below
A few crumbs of information fell off the table of independent news and media on via the Sunday Business Post last week. In an interview with Chief Executive Peter Vandermeersch, he indicated current circulation for a number of his titles. IN+M left the ABC audit process in 2018 and, since then, there have been little or no indications of circulation numbers for their titles. It shows that over the intervening five years (’18 to ’23) the Sunday Independent and the Sunday World have declined by 13% per annum and the Irish Independent has declined at a much higher rate of
May ABC numbers
April 2023 ABC. All reported!
ABC for March 2023
February ABC for February 2023
January 2023 ABC’s:
Numbers are getting particularly thing on the ground – just like god news
There was a small break in transmission! The ABC for August are detailed below.
With only five papers reporting in the morning and the same quantity in the Sunday, I’d strongly suggest that the ABC metric is on its last legs. It doesn’t really give any indication as to what’s really happening in the market – but if the drops shown here are anything to go by, it’s not good.

February 2022 Circulation Numbers:
The first numbers of ’22. I think it will be an interesting year for the ABC and publishers to see if they can manage to maintain the need for this metric
Final numbers of ’21. With 10 papers still with skin in the game, it’s not really worth a comparison with ’20 with so few papers reporting.
Second last certificates of the year. Again , nothing out of the ordinary
October ABC’s with little to report! Incredible to think that only ten titles are prepared to publish their numbers. I’d say if any other groupd decide to pull their data, the ABC metric is as good as dead. I’ve used ABC numbers to plot newspaper data from (in come cases) 1990. Individual years or papers (or both) can be viewed. See this here
