Overview
rVue Holdings, Inc., through its wholly-owned subsidiary rVueTM, Inc., is an
advertising technology company which includes the only demand-side platform for
planning, buying and managing Digital Out-of-Home and Place-Based Media in its
suite of technology. The Company’s vision and expertise in building rVue
provides unrivalled capability for delivering the right advertising message to
the right audience with pinpoint accuracy and creates substantial opportunities
for the Digital Out-of-Home and advertising industries. rVue’s Demand-Side
Platform takes a unique approach to addressable advertising delivery and
measurement and its extensive portfolio of intellectual property supports
reporting and analytics. The Company’s innovations in content delivery solutions
and intellectual property development in targeted demographic media is the
foundation for a wide array of advanced advertising capabilities. Digital
technology has revolutionized media and rVue is making targeted addressable
advertising more efficient, more effective and more available.
Investment Highlights
- Vast Industry. Current annual revenues in the
Digital Out-Of-Home (“DOOH”) industry are well into the
billions of dollars with anticipated growth moderately
gauged at 14% year over year with total revenues expected to
nearly double by the year 2013.
- Cutting Edge Technology. rVue Holdings provides
one-of-a-kind technology through its “rVue” platform to
maximize digital advertising capacities and target specific
demographics through its network of companies.
- Demand-Side Platform. By developing their
technologies in similar fashion to internet-based
advertising giants, Google and Yahoo, rVue gives far greater
control to an advertising campaign directly to the end user.
- Huge Growth Potential.
Even with the size of its interconnected network at this
point, rVue still has only agreements with approximately 25%
of networks in the world. The Company expects to have 75% of
the markets on board with the rVue platform by the end of
2011.
- The Power Of Networking. Through partnering
contracts, rVue provides to advertisers within its platform
a scope of potential customers that is already more than
twice the size of one of the largest digital advertising
companies in the world.
- Analytic Upgrade. In August of this year, rVue
launched version 2.3 of its platform which now provides its
advertisers with aggregated campaign analytics to track
proof of performance and streamline the billing process.
- Diversified Revenues. While rVue receives a
percentage of each advertising campaign, the Company also
generates revenue through additional services such as custom
creation of informational spots and technical services that
comprise network monitoring, troubleshooting, and
maintenance services.
Profile
Advertising. Everyone knows what it is, but much like the
rest of our “quickly-becoming-digital” world, the whole
modality of reaching targeted consumers is rapidly changing.
Billboards and paper ads certainly still have their place in
the advertising community, but the presence of digital
out-of-home (“DOOH”) advertising is becoming a driving force
within the industry as more and more companies are seeing the
quick return on investment capacities of being able to connect
instantly with a very precise demographic at a specific time.
Imagine, if you will, a coffee company that wants to display
an ad targeting 24 to 35 year old males at 5:30 in the morning
near a store that carries its fresh-brewed coffee in an
“eye-catching” manner that will entice the man to stop in and
purchase a cup. Where traditional advertising may fail,
digital out-of-home advertising makes this scenario attainable
for the coffee company.
DOOH goes by many names such as "narrowcasting", "screen
media", "place-based media", "digital merchandising", "digital
media networks", "digital signage" or "captive audience
networks,” but the goal of modern advertising to increase
sales or awareness is the same regardless of what it is
called…and it’s growing faster than any other advertising
platform in the world. It is used in stores, on roads, in
movie theaters, at sporting events, elevators, restaurants and
doctor’s offices to name a few. The growth is inspired by its
limitless boundaries. Traditional advertising is somewhat
constrained as it is static and stationary. Digital
advertising, not only can replace typical billboards, but can
stretch through many medians such as cell phones, television
screens (both inside and outdoors), the internet or even as
images projected onto virtually any surface. The need for
“window clings” or painting of storefront windows can even be
eliminated with changing designs and catchy images with a
simple program.
While most of us have seen cases of digital advertising, with
regards to the overall scheme of things, the technology and
industry is still relatively new. There are very few times
when an industry is still young enough that potential almost
cannot be accurately gauged and DOOH falls into this category
to some extent. While annual revenues for digital advertising
are already into the billions of dollars, as the industry
continues to mature, exponential growth is not only possible,
but expected. Analysis by BIA/Kelsey suggests that digital
out-of-home advertising is poised to be the next major growth
area in local advertising. The firm forecasts DOOH advertising
revenues to nearly double from $2.2 billion in 2009 to $3.7
billion in 2013. This equates to 13.5 percent compounded
annual growth rate, which, while still incredibly strong
growth, some analysts believe could be a bit conservative and
put estimates more in the area of $4 billion annually
presently. During the same period, it is estimated that
traditional out-of-home advertising revenues will grow much
slower; at a rate of 1.4 percent annually, from $4.4 billion
to $4.6 billion.
Networking is a critical part of the overall process in the
growth of DOOH. At this point, there are many companies
available that provide channels for distribution of content,
but advertising companies are only recently starting to
realize the true potential of networking all the different
channels through one stream. Where traditional out-of-home
advertising is very concentrated, with only three companies
controlling approximately 80% of the industry, digital
out-of-home advertising is still fragmented as hundreds of
companies offer distribution, but an area of unmet need exists
for advertisers to easily meet goals and maximize reach and
efficiency of an advertising campaign. Experts in the industry
believe that as DOOH gets easier to plan, buy and measure
through partnerships and interoperable platforms, even greater
growth will be spurred through these integrations. The cycle
of revenues due to popularity and expansion will simply
perpetuate itself as the median of digital out-of-home
advertising continues to grow towards its true capacity.
Fort Lauderdale, Florida-based rVue Holdings, Inc.
(OTCBB:RVUE) is on the cutting-edge as an industry leader
providing the technologies to satisfy unmet needs of both
clients and the industry to facilitate the exponential growth.
The Company operates through its subsidiary, rVue, Inc., as an
advertising technology company that provides a demand-side
platform for planning, buying, and managing digital
out-of-home and place-based media in its suite of technology.
It offers an online and Internet protocol based advertising
exchange that connects advertisers and advertising agencies
with digital out-of-home media or networks that allows them to
create and display digital media advertising campaigns in a
targeted manner. The company’s platform takes an approach to
addressable advertising delivery, measurement, and a portfolio
of intellectual property supports reporting. Simply stated,
rVue provides the platform for companies to communicate with
consumers to present the right message at the right time, in
the right location where the consumer may be making a
purchasing decision.
rVue’s platform is what is referred to as a “Demand Side
Platform.” This means that it is an online platform which
allows real time advertising transactions to take place in a
transparent environment. It creates a marketplace between
buyers and sellers of media inventory. Styled in the manner of
what Google and Yahoo advertising platforms did to give
control to end users, it is 100% novel in digital advertising
because it provides rVue for others (ad agencies, channel
partners, advertisers, etc.) to control independently as
opposed to merely offering managed services.
Through the design of the corporate strategy, rVue leverages
the strength of independent networks through interactive
agreements bringing them together as a group to maximize
advertising reach and hone in on specific demographics. To
understand the magnitude of this strategy, a comparison to
digital advertising giant, Hong Kong-based Focus Media
Holdings, the largest digital advertising company in China and
one of the largest in the world, will help paint a clear
picture. As of June 30, 2010, its digital out-of-home
advertising network had approximately 142,000 LCD displays in
its control. As of November 11, 2010, through its advertising
exchange and integrated platform, rVue accessed approximately
97 networks comprising approximately 348,000 screens. The rate
at which other companies are seeing the value of partnering
with rVue is nothing shy of astounding. Just two months ago,
rVue’s network consisted of 60 networks and 200,000 screens.
With over 500 networks and over one million screens globally,
rVue is moving in leaps and bounds towards meeting its goal of
75% of the global networks being visible in its platform.
rVue’s approach is a first of its kind to fully integrate the
networks through their software provider, which allows
advertisers to optimize campaigns, exchange data, engage in
real-time bidding, and provide many other opportunities as a
result of this physical connection. To put it in simple terms,
rVue gives the advertiser the ability to maximize its targeted
demographic like nothing else by creating an “ecosystem” of
digital out-of-home advertising. Once an advertiser creates
its campaign, an offer is then distributed through the network
of all of the channels that are focused on the targeted
consumer with each network then having the ability to either
accept or decline the offer or the option to directly
negotiate a different offer with the advertiser. Where it used
to take weeks to negotiate and distribute the content in the
past, transactions now can be completed through rVue in
approximately thirty minutes; providing all aspects of the
campaign with smooth transitioning to bring the ad to market
to be viewed by the largest possible targeted audience within
the customized parameters of the advertiser’s needs. For this
service, rVue receives up to a 4% commission on all
transactions.
Recently, rVue launched “rVue 2.3,” which is a strategic
upgrade to the platform by providing advertisers with an
online dashboard for daily analytics. This latest technology
allows for advertisers to see aggregated campaign analytics in
a similar analytic fashion to online advertising campaigns
through Google or Yahoo. The new addition to the platform
provides proof of performance and streamlines billing of the
campaign for the advertiser.
A solid business contains a multi-prong approach to creating
revenues. While rVue’s main source of incoming cash is derived
through its platform, the Company also generates revenue by
providing content production services, which include custom
creation of informational spots and technical services that
comprise network monitoring, troubleshooting, and maintenance
services. And cash looks like it will start
to pour in shortly. According to Globalcom Investment
Research, rVue Holding's 2011 revenues are estimated to come
in at $4 Million and grow to $200 Million in five years, which
would represent an average 220% year on year growth rate. With
that in mind, Globalcom recently rated the shares of rVue
Holdings, Inc. a Strong Buy and forecasts a price target of
$3.25 per share within twelve to eighteen months. This would
represent a market capitalization of only $100 Million
dollars.
A
look at the technical aspects of the RVUE chart quickly
reiterates the stocks tight share structure. Despite a choppy
trading history, the price per share has climbed three-fold in
the last three months and is in a solid uptrend. The chart
remains bullish as the current price of $1.15 is still well
above the 50 day simple moving average, which is at $0.94. The
dynamic moving average should continue on its upward path and
add to some price per share support at $1.05 in the future.The
longer-term lower indicators of the MACD and the TRIX are
retracing from the high levels attained during the large price
climb recently, with the MACD showing signs of another
possible bullish cross coming as the histogram is trending
back towards zero (“the money line”). As the TRIX resets, it
is important that it starts to flatten and maintains levels
over zero to keep the uptrend and bullish sentiment. Technical
traders will be on close alert for volume as low volume, low
float stocks can move extremely quickly with buying pressure.
There is some initial resistance at $1.15 and some additional
resistance at $1.25, but a break through these levels and the
stock price may challenge the all-time high of $1.40.
As always, we like to point out that
these are AllPennyStocks.com's interpretations of the RVUE
technical chart and we always encourage all of our readers to
consult with a financial advisor prior to making any trades
and always do their own due diligence before investing in any
Company.
When searching for potential investments, the savvy investor
looks to upstart companies with current operations and
unlimited potential due to them being focused in an industry
that is poised for rapid growth and provide a product or
service that fills a void within that industry, which will
create strong demand for that product. rVue is a step ahead of
even the experts in the industry who believed that
defragmentation of the digital out-of-home advertising market
will lead to large market growth. While they were saying it,
rVue was building it. With a tight share structure of only
28.6 million shares outstanding, $600,000 in financing
completed, and a product that already incorporates nearly a
quarter of all companies in the industry, it is our contention
at AllPennyStocks.com that rVue, Inc. (OTCBB:RVUE) is a stock
that will be on the radar of many investors from here forward
and we have turned our attention to it as our latest U.S.
Company spotlight. We encourage investors to do their own due
diligenceon the Company and add it to their watch lists.
