Weekday circulation, which included print and digital, rose 73 percent and Sunday circulation rose 50 percent. The Times Company attributed the increase to the installment of its digital paywalls, which boosted subscription numbers.

Sunday circulation for the 532 reporting newspapers rose 5 percent. The latest figures cover the six months that ended on March 31, 2012.
