June 1, 2011

(Silver Spring, Md.) In May 2011, Investigation Discovery has held its place as America's fastest-growing network for distribution growth and delivery gains in key demos. Currently in more than 76 million homes, ID has added almost 7 million subscribers in 2011 alone, an increase of 9.7%.

After scoring the best May ever in Prime for all key demos including P2+, HH, P25-54, W25-54, P18-49 & W18-49, ID marked its 40th consecutive month of year-over-year Prime gains among HH delivery, as well as the 25th consecutive month of year-over-year Prime gains among P/W 25-54 and P2+ delivery.

May '11 vs. May '10: Primetime Delivery

P2+ +67% (485k vs. 290k)

HH +70% (407k vs. 239k)

P25-54 +62% (222k vs. 137k)

W25-54 +59% (143k vs. 90k)

P18-49 +58% (177k vs. 112k)

W18-49 +55% (115k vs. 74k)

In May 2011, ID ranked #27 for W25-54 among ad-supported cable, up 12 rank positions from #39 in May 2010. This beat other female-focused networks including Hallmark (#33), Oxygen (#36) and We (#37).

Additionally, in May 2011, ID ranked #32 for P25-54 among ad-supported cable, up 10 rank positions from #42 in May 2010. This also outranked Hallmark (#35), Oxygen (#39) and We (#42) for P25-54.

Fueling these record numbers in May 2011 were significant gains across ID's entire primetime schedule.
