Adgorithms Share Discussion Threads

No games, they were severely burnt by the collapse in the share price late 2015, they will not give this co. the benefit of the doubt until there is tangible evidence that they have put their past travails behind them. They flagged the introduction of Albert 2.0 in their interims, no need for a further statement, we know from initial case studies the difference Albert makes in KPI's to the cos. that have utilised it, it is all about gaining traction, that ADGO. are attempting to achieve!

The market makers are playing games by the looks of things. I'm not sure whether to buy more now at this ridiculous price or wait and see if the market makers are going to walk the price down.


So why didn't adgo RNS the release of Albert 2.0 back in August?

Lack of shares just reflects the depth of the market, means absolutely nothing more!

[battlebus2] 09/1/2017 09:52

Kev your beginning to sound like a ramped, its always tightly held and only small buys or sells locks the shares. All in good time.

[kev0856153] 09/1/2017 09:51

the lack of shares available online suggests to me a buy order being worked.

Oh I know only too well, I'm a big fan of CROS its my NAP for 2017 fwiw.

[kev0856153] 08/1/2017 13:47

Yes noticed that. I'm hoping some shares still available at 20p though.
I bought cros at 25p and it is approaching 40p now so I think adgo has some catching up to do. They are both facing similar issues in the marketplace.

[battlebus2] 08/1/2017 13:38

You'll be lucky as someone paid 20.99 for 8k unless it was a T20....

[kev0856153] 08/1/2017 13:34

In truth I'm regretting not buying more since at this price the shares are more than priced to fail. Compare adgo's valuation to that of dozens of other aim stocks which are on stupid valuations. Think i'm gonna try and get some more tomorrow at 20p.

Well I'm hoping small acorns grow into large oak trees, but I suppose the point of opening an office the US was to drive their profile!

[battlebus2] 08/1/2017 12:38

My small concern is their reliance on one or two major customers but hopefully this will change with the new outreach of Albert.

[bookbroker] 08/1/2017 11:59

Kev. - it is simply a matter of wait and see, the technology appears to be of significant benefit to online retailing in terms of specific marketing campaigns based on actual understanding of the end users requirements, a painful lesson to the company since flotation, however they will have learnt a good deal from the change in dynamics of advertising campaigns, and to be fair it was most likely not the fault of ADGO. that their main source of income took a massive hit.

[kev0856153] 06/1/2017 13:46

A few buys coming through.

The important thing here is that the amount of cash is worth twice the market capitalisation of the company. With all the man-hours spent developing Albert I'm very surprised the shares have plunged to these levels.

[kev0856153] 06/1/2017 13:43

from the news release before that;

“Albert was brought to life over six years by a team of 80+ data scientists, engineers, and mathematicians, all based in Tel-Aviv. Our product is the result of their innovation,” said Or Shani, CEO of Adgorithms. “Deloitte̵7;s recognition is a nod to our commitment to continuously applying new technologies to business solutions, and to our delivery of the most transparent and holistic digital campaigns brands have ever had access to. We are honored to be recognized by such a prestigious organization.”

80+ data scientists over 6 years! That's one hell of a lot of man hours. How much is Albert worth?

[kev0856153] 06/1/2017 13:42

That article above is well worth reading in full. Here's another paragraph --

"Having run its own cross-channel digital marketing campaign in the United States in late 2015, EVISU found that the cost of its U.S. efforts was exceeding the sales it generated. The retailer turned to Albert to determine whether the autonomous platform could execute and scale these efforts, starting with previously under-performing search and social channels. In just one month of working together, Albert had met all of EVISU’S campaign goals, significantly increasing inbound purchases, decreasing their eCPA, and generating new customer bases across the United States."

TEL AVIV, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Adgorithms, creators of Albert, the world’s first artificial intelligence marketing platform, was named one of the 50 fastest-growing technology companies in Israel. Adgorithms has a revenue growth rate of 1102%. For more about Adgorithms and Albert, please visit www.adgorithms.com.

“Making it on the Technology fast 50 shows a deep understanding of the market.”

The Deloitte Israel annual Technology Fast 50 program recognizes and honors the 50 fastest growing technology companies in Israel (private and publicly-held), based on percentage revenue growth over a four-year period. To qualify, companies must operate in any area of technology and own proprietary technology.

Adgorithms’ 1102% revenue growth is attributed to its first-to-market status in the marketing industry, heavy commitment to R&D, and the successful adoption of its fully autonomous artificial intelligence platform Albert by global brands, including Harley-Davidson, EVISU, and Made.com. Albert fills a great need for digital marketers who are overwhelmed by the number of channels, devices and formats they must wade through to try to keep up with the changing consumer landscape. As a result, the demand for Adgorithms’ offering has accelerated its year-over-year growth.

“Albert was brought to life over six years by a team of 80+ data scientists, engineers, and mathematicians, all based in Tel-Aviv. Our product is the result of their innovation,” said Or Shani, CEO of Adgorithms. “Deloitte̵7;s recognition is a nod to our commitment to continuously applying new technologies to business solutions, and to our delivery of the most transparent and holistic digital campaigns brands have ever had access to. We are honored to be recognized by such a prestigious organization.”

Albert serves as a highly intelligent and sophisticated member of brands’ marketing teams, autonomously executing multi-channel digital campaigns by identifying the audiences most likely to convert, eliminating low-value audiences, and applying insights across channels. He performs many of the manual, time-consuming tasks that plague marketers—from digital media buying and execution to optimization, and analysis. Albert also offers proactive, ongoing insights and recommendations on information he has learned and uncovered along his journey.

"Making it on the Technology fast 50 shows a deep understanding of the market." Said Shally Tshuva Technology, Media & Telecommunications Industry Leader at Deloitte Israel. "Presenting such growth rates shows that Adgorithms holds the agility needed to prosper in a challenging and dynamic market.

don't worry the last couple of billion are the easy bit

[battlebus2] 06/1/2017 09:31

That made my day Kev, still laughing. Only a few billion to go!!

[kev0856153] 06/1/2017 09:19

I had a closer look at adgo over christmas and I've been buying since the markets opened. The headline loss is $3.5M for 6 months but if you look closer $0.8M of that is a share based payment so the underlying loss is only $2.7M

Results should be better in the 2nd half because of the increased sales staff and also this bit in the outlook -

"The advertising industry typically sees strong trading in the fourth quarter in the US and Europe driven by the holiday and shopping season and with the tendency of brands to use up the remainder of their advertising budget for the calendar year."


So the market cap of this company is only half of the value of the cash in bank and even if losses continue at the current rate, which is very unlikely imo, then it will be 2019 before the market cap is greater than the cash in bank. That's 2 whole years!

I think odds very much skewed in my favour and I'm expecting a very much improved second half performance and a route to profitability.

Having Britain's Warren Buffet, battlebus2, on board is the icing on the cake.

[battlebus2] 05/1/2017 18:32

All in time. BB.

I am very curious as to where this company is thus far in its diversification plan to more indirect sales, members of the co. are very pro-active in blogging, but its the business I'm more intrigued about, the valuation of the co. is way under NBV., be nice to have some update even if somewhat ambiguous about trading, the website exalts the benefits of Albert, but ultimately the proof will be in the pudding!
