eStatements

This resourceful tool allows users to access, view, sort, batch print and download electronic versions (Adobe PDF files) of all current and historical ABC publication member reports, including:

• Audit Reports—Reconcile any differences between Publisher's Statement claims and the final numbers audited by ABC. Circulation audit results are reported annually, although some smaller publications opt for every-other-year audits.
  
  
• Publisher's Statements—ABC reviews records submitted by a publisher and issues a report every six months. These figures are subject to an audit.
  
  
• ABC Interactive Audit Reports—Issued by publications that have their Web site activity verified by ABC Interactive. Reports include data on a Web site's unique users, page views and visits.
  
  
• Insert Verification Service Reports (IVS)—Issued by newspapers participating in the Insert Verification Service. IVS measures the accuracy of free-standing insert (FSI) distribution processes.
  
  
• Supplemental Data Reports (SDR)—Subject to an ABC audit, these reports include data not included in the Publisher's Statement. They can supply analyses of electronic editions, county distribution or demographics, and pass-along receivership figures.
  
  
• Consolidated Media Reports (CMR)—Combines circulation, pass-along receivership and Web site traffic into one aggregated figure represented as “Total Direct Contacts.”
  
  
• Flyer Distribution Verification Service Reports (FDVS) —Issued by Canadian newspapers participating in the Flyer Distribution Verification Service.
  
  
• Reader Profile Reports—Issued by newspapers participating in the Reader Profile Service. ABC verifies individual newspaper readership surveys conducted by third-party research organizations.
  
  
• Subscriber Profile Reports—Issued by magazines participating in the Subscriber Profile Service. ABC verifies all the critical steps of a third-party subscriber study.
  
  
• Statement Plus—Augments information included in Publisher's Statements and Audit Reports. Publishers may highlight specific circulation information, such as expanded trending, distribution versus print run, percentage of newsstand return and renewal rate data.
  
  
• Pass-Along Research Studies—Verifies research conducted to determine "total projected audience," a commonly used business-to-business industry metric that describes the number of qualified subscribers plus the additional people to whom a business publication is routed.
