02/7/2009 13:27 | 875,000 new shares of 5p each !!!!!!!!!! ARE THEY OUT OF THEIR MIND?? i am very dissapointed... | pro_better | |
02/7/2009 13:23 | Additional shares dilute the price to £1.55 ish. They're still a growth company on an undemanding rating in a good, niche market. Hold or long term buy I reckon. | yz426 | |
02/7/2009 13:08 | not a good update IMO, smoke and mirrors about definitions of revenue and capex to ensure that they can say they did what they said they would do and what about the up front fee on this new loan facility, rather expensive is it not. | deucetoace | |

02/7/2009 07:24 | Trading statement out: Pre-close trading update Velti plc is the global technology leader in the provision of mobile marketing and advertising solutions for advertising agencies, brands, mobile operators and media. Velti has continued to achieve strong growth in revenues and profits for the six months ended 30 June 2009. Total revenues are expected to exceed EUR20m and net revenues (revenues minus third-party costs) to increase by more than 50%, over the comparable period last year, delivering higher margins. The Board is pleased by the financial performance in the first half of 2009. Velti's revenues have traditionally been stronger in the second half. The Board is confident that this seasonality will continue and the company is on course to post a further year of profitable growth. The momentum in revenue growth reflects increasing repeat business from existing clients, as well as significant new client wins across our geographic footprint in Europe, Asia and the Americas. The company is experiencing strong demand from mobile network operators seeking to strengthen customer relationships and loyalty, and has won new contracts during the period with Vodafone, Orange, Batelco, COSMOTE, AVEA, Orascom-WIND, PT Smart Telecom, Vivatel, and Telefonica's Movistar. Agencies and Brands are continuing to increase the allocation of marketing and advertising budgets to the mobile channel and this was reflected during the period in the acquisition of new customers like Honda, Coca Cola, Nutella and Colgate. The overall economic conditions have caused some delays in the roll out of certain mobile marketing projects, but our pipeline continues to be very robust and we already see signs of acceleration. Velti is pleased to announce the collaboration with Telefonica's Movistar in Mexico, where the operator will be using Velti's award winning MMP. Movistar is one of the largest mobile operators in Mexico with over 16.3 million subscribers. This is Velti's first multi-million dollar engagement in Mexico and demonstrates that its measurable mobile marketing technology can provide results even in today's challenging environment. In 2008, Velti invested heavily in its Software as a Service (SaaS) infrastructure across five global data centers. In 2009, capital expenditure has been much lower with net capital expenditure (capital expenditure minus depreciation and amortisation) of about EUR1.5m, compared with EUR5m in the corresponding period in 2008, and we expect this trend to continue. Overall there has been a cash outflow for the period, which included the acquisition of Ad Infuse announced in May. Because of its timing, the acquisition of Ad Infuse had no material effect on our results for the first half of the year. Integration of Velti and Ad Infuse to provide improved services to clients is well underway and the first results are very encouraging. To provide funding for Ad Infuse and general financing for the future, Velti has secured two new medium term facilities totaling approximately EUR10 million. The facilities are being provided by a special purpose vehicle backed by a group of institutional investors. The company has issued 875,000 new shares of 5p each to the group in lieu of arrangement fee. Application has been made for these shares to be admitted to trading on AIM, which is expected to occur on or about Friday 3 July 2009. David Mann, Non-Executive Chairman, said: "I am delighted that we have secured new medium term facilities and demonstrated our ability to tap different financing markets. These new facilities, together with our existing credit lines, are allowing us to take advantage of key opportunities for the further development of the business. Alex Moukas, Chief Executive added: "As a result of investments in the past, Velti has already become the largest and most profitable player in the global mobile marketing and advertising space; able to offer solutions for campaign planning, execution, analysis and reporting. We believe that this uniquely positions the company at an inflection point between ad agencies, brands and mobile operators, which are all critical elements of the industry. We see the skills brought to us by Ad Infuse as being important in our plan to achieve this." The company will announce interim results for the 6 months ended 30 June 2009 in mid-September 2009. | nurdin | |
12/6/2009 10:42 | V nice move up, perhaps ahead of a TU which last year was 1st July. Given Q1 was over 50% ahead in revenue terms (and hopefully more in EPS terms) the TU should make v good reading - I have bought a few more. | deucetoace | |
11/6/2009 14:13 | Preparing for a lift off...:o) | nurdin | |
29/5/2009 11:10 | Over the last year, Velti has raised its profile considerably, creating marketing campaigns for major brands like Coca Cola, MTV and Disney. It now plans to integrate Ad Infuse's personalisation and ad routing/serving technology within its own Mobile Marketing Platform (MMP). | nurdin | |
29/5/2009 10:58 | Veltis mobile marketing platforms seem to have helped get Obama elected :o) | nurdin | |
13/5/2009 06:47 | There is also a hint in that statement on current trading: Velti recently announced strong 2008 organic revenue (up 164% on 2007) and profits growth: sales reached $70 million, with an EBITDA of $17 million. Revenues in the first quarter of 2009 are expected to be more than 50% higher than Q1 2008. Velti's balance sheet continues to demonstrate strong cash and net assets positions and the company will fund the acquisition in cash using existing and pre-arranged resources. Management expects that following modest dilution in 2009, the transaction will be EPS enhancing in 2010, the first full year after closing... More than 50% up on last year for Q1..that is some advance !! | nurdin | |
13/5/2009 06:37 | Blimey,how did I miss that? Cheers Steg.... | nurdin | |
13/5/2009 00:07 | News today and not a peep on the BB. Acquisition of Ad Infuse Doesnt say how much they paid other than its from Cash and pre-arranged resources. Management expects that following modest dilution in 2009, the transaction will be EPS enhancing in 2010, the first full year after closing. Ad Infuse' s leading mobile ad serving and routing technology platforms enable advertisers, publishers, brands, and operators to place mobile ads on multiple networks and manage them in real-time. Ad Infuse works with leading advertisers, publishers, and operators in the US and Europe, including: Procter & Gamble, Dell, AT&T, Disney, Swisscom, France Telecom, Orange and Microsoft. Says a Velti company on the web logo - bloody hell they moved fast on that one! | stegrego | |
07/5/2009 07:41 | cheers Steg....way undervalued imo.Broker has a target price of 300p which is more reasonable. | nurdin | |
05/5/2009 19:34 | GCI 6/3/09 Velti looks good value Another sound of balance sheet is Velti, the Greek-technology concern behind a mobile marketing technology platform used by 'blue chips' including Pepsi and Pernod Ricard. Following a half to June 2008 in which the company grew sales by 115 per cent to 16 million (£14.3 million) and operating profits by 86 per cent to 2.6 million, it sat on a net cash pile of 4.26 million (£3.8 million). Robust in terms of cash, a more recent end of year update flagged up 2008 sales growth of 125 per cent to more than 45 million, bettering the expectations of City number crunchers, who expect pre-tax profits of 8.2 million for last year ahead of 13.1 million for 2009. Expanding profitably, Velti looks nicely placed with global clients increasingly shifting their advertising spend to highly measurable mobile channels in the midst of this savage downturn. Based on the 2009 0.29 (26p) earnings forecast, the 117p shares are trading on a lowly prospective of 4.5 times, despite the fact this growing business is outperforming many a peer. | stegrego | |
05/5/2009 16:25 | Just found this on a screen - looks interesting. Nurdin, got any research you can point me to? Ta (looks like i should have spotted it a couple of weeks ago, but presumably plenty left in the tank) | stegrego | |
04/5/2009 08:02 | ''Market research firm ABI Research expects worldwide mobile marketing to jump from $1.8 billion in 2007 to $24 billion in 2013...'' It is little wonder that Veltis revenues have been doubling yoy since 2005 | nurdin | |
01/5/2009 12:14 | Someone taking a keen interest in VEL judgng by the trades yesterday and the 12,670 trade today. | nurdin | |
30/4/2009 21:30 | The big buy of 1m shares today has moved the price up again | aldridge | |
30/4/2009 19:23 | Dont know if anyone has read their last results but seems to me they have put in all the right blocks in place to capture a market that is set to show explosive growth going forward: Operational highlights * Investment in building Velti's global footprint, in both developed and emerging economies, opening offices in Beijing, Dubai, Madrid, Moscow, New Delhi, San Francisco and Shanghai. * Strong organic growth from existing global operators, brands and ad agencies and new important new customer wins. * New Joint Venture in India: 35 percent share holding in HT Mobile Solutions, a new mobile marketing company set up with Hindustan Times Media, the second largest media group in India. * Acquired 33 per cent of CASEE (with an option to go to 50%), China's largest mobile ad exchange (achieved 85% revenue growth between Q3 and Q4 2008). * Solid performance from Ansible (joint venture with Interpublic Group) with accelerated growth in the second half of 2008. * Debt facilities of EUR10.0m have been secured for future working capital requirements. * Velti's sales and marketing capacity doubled from 25 to 50 in 2008. The compny is also winning long term contracts from clients who read like 'who is who' in the blue company list: Strong organic growth A major contributor to Velti's performance in 2008 was repeat business from existing customers (approximately two thirds of revenues) and winning new blue-chip customers (one third of revenues), including mobile network operators, media, brands and advertising agencies. Examples of achievements for 2008 include: * Winning new business from global brands such as Unilever, Friesland, Chrysler, Johnson & Johnson, Dixons, United Milk Company's Fibella and Procter & Gamble; * Winning repeat mobile marketing contracts with Argos, Wrigley's, MasterCard, TMP Worldwide, Pepsi, Coca Cola, Pernod Ricard, Clinique and Hewlett-Packard; * Renewing key operator contracts such as Vodafone, MTS, Orascom-WIND, Cosmote, MTEL, Vivatel, SingTel and Orange; * Continued progress from Ansible with client wins including Microsoft, Intel, Bayer, General Motors and Verizon; and * Building relationships with leading global advertising agencies including Ogilvy, BBDO, Adel Saatchi & Saatchi, McCann Erickson, Momentum, Draftfcb and Lowe Worldwide. The current rating is derisory in my opinion and the share should be trading at well over 200p given the market size,customer base and the earnings track record over tthe last 4-5 years. | nurdin | |
