Yes 4 Fred and stt and his gang bashing them all and there's been no news flow so there's nothing really to talk about but it doesn't stop him posting everyday non stop negative industry articles which do not refer to the company or anyone in the company. And that doesn't even refer to the Gang harvesting coins to vote up and vote down posts to manipulate the message boards

[digitalis] 20/11/2018 10:23

Wow...someone is on this every day and at the end of the day relentlessly.....throw in the gangs bashing as the last few pi,s look for reasons to continue holding and you get innocents squeezed out....genuine people who have held for yrs...every bit of an explanation as to the fake share price and the bashers pounce.....
You need a stomach of lead to get through this.....
The late results are suiting someone....so you could say the company are involved with helping that someone?......mmm the cowboys do not care about anyone but themselves and their larger stakeholders......we just need to ride their coat tails till the end.....

ADVFN R1 has 4 active threads with multiple bashing posts per day (by the same posters) on very little news flow.

Draw your own conclusions, I have and it's not worth the time to review these boards.

RhythmOne Announces Its Early Partnership with Pixalate's MRC-Accredited OTT Fraud
Detection and Filtering Solution

RhythmOne Continues to Help Lead the Advanced TV and OTT Ad Market with Commitment to
Providing Clients with Highest Quality Inventory

London, England and San Francisco, CA - 20 November 2018 - RhythmOne plc (LSE AIM: RTHM), a global advertising technology company, today announced that it has formed an early, collaborative partnership with Pixalate, Inc. regarding its newly Media Ratings Council, Inc. (MRC) accredited over-the-top (OTT) invalid traffic (IVT) detection and filtration solution, a key component of Pixalate's comprehensive ad fraud detection and prevention platform. RhythmOne's planned integration of Pixalate's solution into its unified programmatic platform offers an added layer of IVT detection and protection for OTT ad impressions. The Pixalate solution will work in conjunction with RhythmGuard, RhythmOne's proprietary brand safety technology, which actively combats IVT within its platform across all screens, including desktop, mobile, tablet, and connected TV/OTT.

"Brand safety is a paramount concern for our clients, and a top priority for all campaigns that run through our platform," said Jorg Nowak, Senior Vice President of Global Sales, RhythmOne. "As a leader in the advanced TV ad market, we take our responsibility to provide clients with high-quality OTT inventory very seriously. We've invested in the tools and technology that enable advertisers to buy brand-safe, cross-screen inventory from our marketplace, and are excited to bring a new measure of quality assurance to the rapidly growing OTT market."

Pixalate's analysis shows global OTT IVT rates average 19% and forecasts marketers stand to lose $10 billion in OTT spend in 2020.

"High CPMs and lack of measurement standards have made the OTT channel a breeding ground for fraudsters," said Jalal Nasir, CEO of Pixalate. "We are proud to meet the challenge head-on with our industry-first MRC accreditation for invalid traffic detection and filtration in OTT. We applaud RhythmOne's leadership in adopting new OTT safeguards and helping their clients protect their ad investments and reputation."

RhythmOne and Pixalate have been working together for over two years to test and develop solutions that help protect buyers from the ad spend loss and brand reputation risk present in OTT/CTV. The two companies have worked closely, as part of an OTT solutions group, to experiment and apply advanced data science methods for testing OTT fraud blocking and monitoring products, as well as determining methods for addressing server-side ad insertion (SSAI) and other OTT issues. As Pixalate announced last week, it was the first company to receive accreditation from the MRC for Sophisticated Invalid Traffic (SIVT) detection and filtration for OTT video ad impressions.

RhythmOne is consistently ranked by Pixalate as a trusted platform for agencies and brands. RhythmOne earned the #1 spot for US and International rankings on Pixalate's Global Seller Trust Index (GSTI) for all of 2017.

Perhaps wishful thinking! but they could be putting all there efforts in ctv with the higher cpms. Hence the drop off in revenue that comes from lower margin areas.

Today's pixalate announcement suggests the R1 publicity machine hasn't been completely decommissioned.

There was no mention of Cash in the Sept TU. Yet there were warnings of significant costs ahead....

We'll have to see what they have to say about the outlook when they announce their results in 3 weeks time...

[loafofbread] 19/11/2018 21:24

As working capital unwinds they should be getting close to $1M a week into the coffers. More than enough for the share buyback.

[loafofbread] 19/11/2018 21:19

It's not on the first, or any link so what are you talking about?

Good spot blenny2. I hadn't noticed that. I presume it is just cut and paste from the fy18 finals, when they did make a loss (adj Ebitda was positive but calculated by adding stuff back in to the bottom line loss).

But another possible reading is that they are telling us they expect a bottom line loss for 1hfy19 (which is a reasonably likely outcome given the amortization charge). I think it unlikely they would intentionally do that through the footnote though.

Midas,

"Rhythm are sticking to the trading update figures that took the share price to 240, facts figures and reality "

Really...

Check the graph and historical share price ..

As it has done so with previous TU/results, the share price rose in anticipation of 1R providing solid figures and outlook to back up their bullish comments...
Yet, the TU didn't include any cash. The CFO resigned immediately.
They changed expectations from Market to Management.

1gw reckon they didn't include cash because it is volatile.. 1 week before H1 end!!!!

Revenue isn't as volatile. They should be able to make a reasonable estimate, perhaps with a bit of sandbagging, a short period ahead of time.
Cash all depends on whether bills get paid or not between now and the end of the half. You should be able to make a reasonable estimate of what bills you're going to pay yourself, but you have very little control over whether some of your bigger overdue or about-to-be-due accounts are going to settle before or after period end.

They could have reported the latest known cash balance but chose not to. Perhaps they decided with net cash as of year-end and a good adjusted EBITDA estimated for the half-year, the precise cash balance as of some date before period end wouldn't be a very significant metric for investors?

Loaf,
I have, which is why I previously posted APART FROM.
1R are No longer listed as a partner. TTD have obviously updated their partners page recently, as they now show 77 partners..

The Trade Desk:
Apart from 1R/Yume, The Trade Desk has around 60 other inventory partners..

The update says

Adjusted1 EBITDA increased by approximately 600% from H1 2018 to $19 million - $21 million (H1 2018: $3.1 million).

and then goes on to define Adjusted EBITDA as loss for the period. Am I reading this
wrongly or what?

[barkboo] 19/11/2018 09:53

OK - Bluewater day..see you later!

[barkboo] 19/11/2018 09:51

I stated that I was getting involved with trading at these levels - with the intention of determining the current worth of our company and seeing how mm's play any interest out?

I am at the moment losing money on this operation - but it has been fun in assessing the offers mm's have been making... lol and I am a small player at this type of game - I have learnt, they have very small balls.

This is not trading as we know it!

[barkboo] 19/11/2018 09:39

The Company have not just given us talk - but confirmation in the form of a legal document [t/u].. that we are now doing extremely well.

They have then with another legal document - reaffirmed the company are doing extremely well, and this.. so very close to their interims - but it appears that Gangsters, rags and MM friends have succeeded in convincing this Casino of an index - that they know best, and should be trusted more than the bod's signed legal documents.

How very strange - and how very strange some investors believe the Casino operators?

Current market cap around 125 million. Seriously undervalued - the market appeared to have priced this to fail.

[cromw3ll] 19/11/2018 09:06

Going forward we need some director buying to rebuild confidence.

[midasx] 19/11/2018 07:30

Rhythm are sticking to the trading update figures that took the share price to 240, facts figures and reality Silk.

With additional cost savings going forward the year end projections should look very positive.
