Charlie Hebdo Will Reinvest All 2015 Profits Back Into Company

The tussle over Charlie Hebdo's financial future has reached a potential reconciliation point, this Wall Street Journal articles reports. The company, down to two major shareholders, stands to be extremely profitable after high interest in the satirical publication following the Muhammad cartoon related murders in January. There had been a push to give ownership to all of the paper's employees as a sign of the risk being embraced by working there; that looks like that won't happen but that all of its profits for 2015 and later a significant chunk of profits will be reinvested back into the company.

What I didn't know is that it looks like after other incidents, dividends were paid but only to the company's limited shareholders.
