For the full year in 2017, Torstar's daily brands division reported an 11-per-cent decline in revenue to $40.2-million, largely due to declines in print advertising, which was down 32 per cent for national advertising and 9.5 per cent for local advertising. Subscriber revenues, which make up just over one-third of the daily segment's revenues, were down 3.6 per cent. Due to the closing of the Star Touch tablet project, digital revenues fell 6.6 per cent – not including Star Touch, they were up 1.9 per cent for the year.
