Who's going to replace him I wonder?Also wonder why he left so abruptly.....seems to be a trend forming here?P.S. Sikh what say ye ref the clarity provided by Ted in reference he is nuttier than a fruit cake?

[kendonagasaki] 18/1/2018 08:59

Sp seems to have dropped 5% for no reason?

A trading update with some figures that show Perk is back on track and RadiumOne is no longer a basket case might help.

Trust has long gone with this company.

Christ, If I had just had my best ever qtr I would want to tell the world (and yume investors). Silence points in a different direction.

Interesting article fo67....clearly Ted has took his gun to the knife fight.....
What would you do or say in the same interview?....Ted is just about to step into the ring with some of the biggest names in the industry so you talk tough,everything has a price tag and he’s coming out aggressively saying more acquisitions to come......someone is rattled by the Yume purchase,in effect this is looking past the latest buy and saying get ready boys this train ain’t stopping for nobody!!!!!

Excellent,stuff......

Good post kendo.

[kendonagasaki] 18/1/2018 06:03

FO67's last post.....Says Ted want to go on another spending spree and wishes to aquire another company on the supply side.My oh my, how quaint??Lets just totally forget all the $millions of dollars wasted in this merry go round of aqusitions to date over the years...100's of millions of dollars wasted, forget it.Lets just forget we cant make any profits, still intergrating a purchase from last year and about to purchase yume, just foget that, forget it!!Lets also forget the money had gone and we are increasing our lines of debt restructuring due to the fact our business model is apparently not performing as well as we'd have hoped....forget that.Lets forget the share price has recently fallen some 45% from recent highs and is still 93% down from its all time high and $80 million dollars lighter too,lets just forget that!!??Lets also forget the fact we are on our 3rd Ceo and lets too forget the recent 10-1 consolidation, also forget the fact they forget to communicate all the time with shareholders and renege at evey opportunity to provide us with clarity....i think they have forgotten the qtr update too but never mind, just forget that!!!Lets forget the fact by purchasing more companies just to strip mine 'ip'values out of them has not worked out so well so far?Lets forget the fact if we go on the rampage of another buying frienzy we will contine to be non profitable and loaded with debt and a share price so severly depressed you will be begging Tosca to take you over for pennies on the dollar.....Never forget Tosca though?Im sure you wont?Now, ive had my say....anybody care to make a comment on Teds fastidious approach to purchase anything with a heart beat??Because i really, really would like to know what you think!

Meanwhile, Ted Hastings, RhythmOne, chief executive officer, likewise explains how the outfit’s ambition to rival some of the large names in the sector means his outfit’s desire to purchase new point solutions hasn’t abated.
When quizzed on the potential for more M&A activity, he adds: “The short answer is yes, and we’ll continue to evaluate deals. The last deals such as RhythmOne, and the pending YuMe one were on the demand-side, and the things we are looking at now are companies more on the supply-side, giving us access to premium supply to better balance both sides of our exchange.”

BARKERS - just catching up after a day driving backwards and forwards across the Pennines in the wind, snow and rain. Just a bit different from the Garden of England.

Keep up all the good work - it is just getting exciting again.

[kendonagasaki] 17/1/2018 20:28

For all the astute amongst us, im sure you have recognised the warning sign of the black swan that is Digitalis?I suppose he too loves parting old age pensioners from their life savings as much as Barky does..........?Caution all, and beware the bearer of gifts that do not glisten?Beware of the Two Ronnies!Otherwise your hard earnt cash will have to say goodnight twice?

[kendonagasaki] 17/1/2018 20:16

Any one remember the man from Adventis?What a tangled web we weave.....?

Yume blue!

[barkboo] 17/1/2018 16:39

Digi - I remember him well....the grass is only greener when you forget to mow the lawns! lol

"he was a bb psychopath" with no lawns!

[barkboo] 17/1/2018 16:30

This is getting a regular occurrence - someone trying to kill the Yume share price before aim close..a fightback by those with an interest in the RTHM share price

Big players around here - make no mistake!

[digitalis] 17/1/2018 16:22

Anyone remember “chicken madras”.......he was a bb psychopath,I exposed him in full,but one night I did say to him if you climb in bed with the person you love so full of this hatred,vile language,rage and nasty thoughts one day she will take herself off with the kids.......low and behold the hateful psycho posters missus did do a runner with the kids!!.....we later found him advertising himself on singles sites!!......justice had been served ......
So I firmly believe the way posters behave on here carries over into their personal lives.....that makes it easy to suspect the conditions and circumstances some posters thrive in off the B.B.,s......

[barkboo] 17/1/2018 16:02

jocojoan - thank you my friend - very kind of you..I promise you those guys will never get me down, or get the better of me - I enjoy fighting rags and will continue with the fun.

Almost better than the money.

I believe there are players here at ADVFN that are trying exploit any failings in my computer network - we are on the case.

There are a few rags here with similar ip's - I have to be careful how I word that. lol

The Cookie Eclipse & What It Means to You

"In this light, you can see the entire ad tech ecosystem was built on a foundation of cookies that supports USD$80bn (£58bn) in annual media spend. The loss of cookies would cast a dark shadow on the outlook for DSPs, ad networks, publishers, SSPs, DMPs, CRM, device graph, ad-serving, analytics, and automation companies. As we’ll prove below, a cookie eclipse is occurring before our eyes, and the implications are significant."

[gowlane] 17/1/2018 15:23

It looks like it is a long uphill slog Sikh. This is not exactly a level playing field.

1R are not just up against hundreds of smarter and more innovative small firms but also up against a handful of monster competitors.

Who don't particularly want interlopers coming along and eating their lunch.

[sikhthetech] 17/1/2018 15:10

gl, yes, more headwinds to come this year.. Fy 2018, this March was about the affects of Methbot, what needs to be done and how to deal with Transparency etc...

Fy2018, ending March 31st won't include much from any recent challenges and major changes... Google Ad Blocker, GPRD, hidden fees challenges, Apple's Cookie changes...
The outlook and how the 1R and the Ad Tech industry is going to address these challenges will be crucial...

[gowlane] 17/1/2018 14:40

Looks like more and more headwinds Sikh, which demands exceptional management to navigate and I am not sure our lads are up to it.

Just my opinion after 8 years.

[jocojoan] 17/1/2018 14:34

lol. How very droll.

[kendonagasaki] 17/1/2018 13:07

jocojoan you'll be six foot under before before this pays off?

[jocojoan] 17/1/2018 11:16

Please do not stop posting up all your comments Barky. we need some positivity to counteract the continuous negativity from certain well known posters. Don't let the b....... grind you down!!! ps. I am 77 and have been in blinkx over 8 years and read all the BBs on here and iii plus lea. I often wonder if the posters who come across as unpleasant and often foul mouthed are like that in real life....that would be so sad.

Large Digital Ad Spenders Reducing Programmatic Ad Outsourcing in Favor of In-House Capabilities


"large digital ad spenders will adopt more programmatic advertising capabilities in-house over the next 12 months."



"In late summer of 2017, Centro and Advertiser Perceptions surveyed 153 agency and brand marketing professionals that spend $5 million to $100 million annually in digital ads to gauge their companies’ evolution into programmatic media strategy and execution. The survey found that:

- In 12 months, 90% of agencies and 81% of marketers will operate with some form of programmatic advertising capabilities in-house.
- Advertisers employ a mix of programmatic media buying teams and models, but 78% of agencies and 59% of marketers say they will no-longer outsource to a third-party by next year.
- Among media buying models, advertisers expressed the highest optimism for ad spend growth for private marketplaces (39%) and open RTB (30%); nevertheless, 62% stated that direct I/O-based buying would remain the same.
- Advertisers work with an average of 4-5 vendors in each of the ‘DSP,’ ‘data provider & data management,’ and ‘other ad tech’ categories."
