Harte-Hanks Posts First Quarter of Revenue Growth Since 2007

Discussing the performance of individual business segments, Doug Shepard, executive vice president and CFO, said, “Our direct marketing revenues reflect an increase of over 40 percent from our pharma/healthcare vertical compared to the third quarter of 2009. The growth in the pharma/healthcare vertical was helped by the large, one-time project which was completed early in the fourth quarter of 2010. Our retail, select and high-tech verticals experienced revenue growth rates in the single digits (as a percentage). Our financial vertical declined in the single digits (as a percentage).
