A record quarter and positive future outlook for Adslot Media

It’s been a long, hard road, but our efforts in the US and European markets are starting to pay off.

The September 2020 quarter saw the value of media traded on the Adslot Media platform increase +31% QoQ and +48% vs PCP to $6.24M.

Although this number is still relatively small, the growth has come from initial trades under MSAs in the US market (+77% QoQ), which we expect to continue to see grow in coming quarters; and continued growth in Europe via Adslot’s integrated Adslot Media-Symphony platform (+33% QoQ).

The volume of trades also grew +64% QoQ, reflecting increased activity in key markets.

The Company also continued to sign new publishers to the Adslot Media platform, including the largest English-speaking newspaper in India with over 500 million users: Times of India.

During the quarter, the Company also successfully deployed Symphony to OMG in the Netherlands, via its partnership with Marathon (Kalin Setterberg Data AB).  We anticipate further adoption of Symphony in European markets via the Marathon partnership in the years ahead.

We have also seen a strong recovery in ad spend globally on the Symphony platform, following the significant declines in the March and June quarters due to COVID-19 (and civil unrest in the US).  The Symphony media workflow solution now manages approximately $6.77 Billion in annualised media spend globally.

From a cash perspective, cash inflows from operating activities roughly equaled cash outflows from operating activities (net $0.04M), with cash at the end of September 2020 quarter of $5.04M.
