The company\u2019s newsletter subscribers increased 14% in the third quarter of 2011.<\/p>\n<p>For the third quarter, Travelzoo reported earnings of $0.36 per share, beating analysts\u2019 estimate of $0.34 per share. The company\u2019s revenue for the third quarter of 2011 was $38.7 million, once again above analysts\u2019 estimate of $38.4 million.<\/p>\n<p>Travelzoo\u2019s North American business segment revenue jumped 32% on a year-over-year basis to $28.1 million. The segment reported an operating profit of $7.8 million for the third quarter. European business segment reported a 65% increase in third-quarter revenue to $10.7 million. Operating profit at the European business segment rose from $248,000 to $1.4 million in the third quarter.<\/p>\n<p>In the third quarter, the company generated $9.1 million in cash from operating activities. The company\u2019s capital expenditures during the third quarter were $847,000. The company ended the quarter with $32.4 million in cash and cash equivalents.<\/p>\n<p>Chris Loughlin, CEO of Travelzoo, said that in a typically slow third quarter, the company\u2019s growth accelerated, revenues grew at the fastest pace in five years and reached record levels in both North America and Europe. Loughlin further said that the company\u2019s expansion into local deals focuses on growing both the top and the bottom line. He added that operating margins improved in the quarter, and operating income and earnings per share increased even more than revenues.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<table style=\"border:none;margin:0;\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding:5px;vertical-align:top;\" valign=\"top\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www2.thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5.jpg\" alt=\"edliston\" width=\"125\" height=\"125\" class=\"photo\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:5px;vertical-align:top;\" valign=\"top\">\n<div style=\"font-size:11pt;\"><b>Post Written By: Ed Liston <\/b><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:10pt;\">\n<p>Ed Liston is a senior contributing editor at TheStockMarketWatch.com.
