Spotlight on Dick Clark Productions Inc.: “We’re very methodical and conservative when deciding on the company’s future projects--in fact, our investments are almost riskless,” said Chairman Dick Clark. “We’re going to continue to develop our core television business, because that’s our foundation block. We’ll do two or three telepictures a year, because that’s only an adjunct to our core business.” This has translated to the bottom line: Revenue is up 18.7% compared to last year and profit is up 4%.
