Among the 700+ total U.S. ABC-audited titles, Fast Company magazine and Inc. magazine saw continued momentum in their rate of growth of single copy newsstand sales. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, Inc. magazine ranks 13th, compared to 5th in the second half of 2006 FAS-FAX report, and Fast Company magazine ranks 12th again compared to the same prior period.

"The FAS-FAX data reflects the tremendous vitality of Fast Company magazine and Inc. magazine in an environment that has been challenging to the publishing sector," said Mansueto Ventures CEO John Koten. "Investments made in our media brands under Mansueto's ownership have made us smarter in how we have applied promotional spending and how we position our titles to be certain that they reach and engage business readers. Clearly, our efforts are paying off."

Every six months, publishers file their circulation claims with ABC, resulting in an ABC Publisher's Statement and a listing in ABC's FAS-FAX report. Member listings in FAS-FAX are preliminary, top-line circulation averages, culled from the newly-filed claims, which are subject to audit.
