Hearst Staffs Up for Its New International Focus

As it gets ready to complete its blockbuster purchase of Lagardère’s international magazines division, Hearst Corp. is filling out its international ranks. Hearst announced Monday that Simon Horne, who had been CFO and general manager at its British subsidiary, National Magazine Co., would take on that role—a new one for the company—for all of Hearst’s international magazines.
 
Also on Monday, Lagardère announced that it had signed the share purchase agreement for the sale of its international magazines to Hearst, moving the sale one step closer to completion.
