“A.H. Belo is navigating through a challenging operating environment, but I am confident about the quality of our markets long-term, the strengths of AHC’s brands and our ability to continue to transform AHC in an Internet-centric media world,” Robert W. Decherd, the company's chairman, president and chief executive, told The Dallas Morning News.

Newspaper company A.H. Belo was spun off from Belo in February.

In a letter to shareholders Decherd stated that “we continue to be on of the most aggressive companies in the newspaper business – if not the most aggressive – in focusing the circulation of our core newspapers on readers who matter the most to advertisers,” The Dallas Morning News reported.
