What a year this is shaping up to be.
And I can state that in complete confidence since it's already been a wonderful half of a year.
Yesterday closed out the first six months of 2022, and it's safe to say we've never before shown across-the-board growth at DK Pittsburgh Sports in so many categories and to such a degree. I very rarely discuss revenue in terms of dollars -- no company does that -- but I'm certainly comfortable sharing the percentage increase we've experienced in comparing this Jan. 1-June 30 vs. Jan. 1-June 30 of 2021:
• Subscription revenue: +9.5%
• Podcast revenue: +155%
• Video revenue: +342%
• Sponsorship revenue: +22%
And that's to say nothing of new revenues being generated by the new Downtown HQ/shop, our online sales of some of that same merchandise and other smaller elements. In fact, the only area of any decline at all was the -2.1% in programmatic advertising, and that was done deliberately because we needed to shut down for a spell to kill a malicious ad.
All of which has us on pace for record full-year revenues by a margin of 20% or even more.
