Legendary publisher Simon & Schuster up for sale
Simon & Schuster, the venerable 96-year-old publisher of Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald, has been put on the block by ViacomCBS. "We have had multiple unsolicited inbound calls about that asset, and so as the market stabilizes, we are going to engage in a process," ViacomCBS CEO Bob Bakish said during a Q&A at an investment conference in San Francisco. Bakish said Simon & Schuster "is not a core asset. It is not video-based. It does not have significant connection for our broader business," Bakish said.
Publishing revenue in 2019 was $814 million, down 1.3 percent from $825 million in the prior year, the company said. The company publishes 2,000 titles a year through imprints that include Simon & Schuster, Scribner's, Atria and Gallery. Its authors include Mary Higgins Clark, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Bob Woodward, Hillary Clinton, Stephen King and Susan Orlean. Simon & Schuster CEO Carolyn Reidy said in a memo to staffers Wednesday, "The process will surely be an adventure for all of us, but we are a company that has always risen to the challenges we face."
