Michael Boggs: NZME Chief Executive on the company's 12 percent rise in half-year earnings - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

NZME is reporting an almost 12 percent rise in half-year earnings.

The media company - which owns Newstalk ZB and the Herald - is reporting growth across audio, podcasts, subscriptions, and the OneRoof property website.

CEO Michael Boggs says this is a strong result, given the tough economic environment, but there's hope for more growth. 

"People are seeing green shoots, but sadly, I've been saying that for the last year in every one of our results announcements...this time, we've not done any forecast based on green shoots."
