Operational Review
Introduction
We are a leading global provider of mobile marketing and advertising solutions that enable brands,
advertising agencies, mobile operators and media to implement highly targeted, interactive and
measurable campaigns by communicating with and engaging consumers via their mobile devices. Our
platform allows our customers to use mobile and traditional media to contact targeted consumers, engage
the consumer through the mobile internet and applications, convert them into customers and continue to
actively manage the relationship between the brand and the consumer through the mobile channel. In
2009, over 450 brands, advertising agencies, mobile operators and media companies, including 11 of the
4
20 largest mobile operators worldwide, used our platform to conduct over 2,000 campaigns. We have the
ability to conduct campaigns in over 35 countries and reach more than 2.5 billion global consumers.
We believe our integrated, easy to use, end-to-end platform is one of the most extensive mobile
marketing and advertising campaign management platform in the industry. Whether the goal of the
mobile campaign is to raise brand awareness, acquire new customers, increase loyalty or revenues, our
platform enables brands, including mobile operators, and advertising agencies, to plan, execute, monitor
and measure mobile marketing and advertising campaigns in real time throughout the campaign lifecycle.
In addition, our platform enables the execution of campaigns that are not just driven by mobile media, but
also seek to incorporate traditional media such as television, print, radio and outdoor advertising.
In January 2010, we released an enhanced version of our proprietary platform, Velti mGage™, which
provides a one-stop-shop where our customers may plan marketing and advertising campaigns. They can
also select advertising inventory, manage media buys, create mobile applications, websites and
applications, build mobile CRM campaigns and track performance across their entire campaign in realtime.
We believe the mobile device is emerging as the principal interactive channel for brands to reach
consumers since it is the only media platforms that has access to the consumer virtually anytime and
anywhere. This is further driven by the continued growth of wireless data subscribers, the proliferation of
mobile devices, smart phones and advanced wireless networks, and the increased provision of third party
mobile content, applications and services. Increasingly, brands and advertising agencies are recognizing
the unique benefits of the mobile channel and they are seeking to maximize its potential by integrating
mobile media within their overall advertising and marketing campaigns. Our platform allows our
customers to focus on campaign strategy, creativity and media efficiency without having to worry about
the complexity of implementing mobile marketing and advertising campaigns globally.
As of the first quarter of 2010, we have 459 employees globally, with 128 in the critical area of sales and
marketing and 242 engineers and software developers.

FIRST HALF 2010 INTERIM RESULTS DEMONSTRATE CONTINUED REVENUE AND EBITDA GROWTH



Dublin, Ireland - Velti (AIM:VEL), a leading global provider of mobile marketing and advertising technology, today reported its interim financial results for the first half of 2010. The Company benefited from increasing demand for its technology and services from existing and new customers.

"Momentum continued to build for Velti's products and services in the first half of 2010. Increasing demand from existing and new customers of Velti and our joint ventures resulted in campaigns for 545 clients, of which 150 are new clients added since the beginning of the year, including Samsung, Coke, Canon, Lenovo, Paramount, Shell, Mars, Bharti, Movistar and Google," said Alex Moukas, CEO of Velti.

The Board is very pleased with Velti's performance in the first half, during which the Company achieved considerable momentum going into the second half of 2010. In 2009, changes in reporting caused the results for 2009 to be particularly skewed to the second half of that year. While Velti has always been seasonally stronger in the second half, the Company expects in 2010 a more historical revenue split than the significant second half year increase that was experienced in 2009.

Refer to footnotes below on reconciliation from net income (loss) before non-controlling interest to Adjusted EBITDA.



Key Growth Drivers for First Half of 2010

Velti's growth in the first half of 2010 reflects a combination of:

· revenue growth continued across all business lines including the continued adoption of Velti's Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model;

· increased spending in the mobile medium by advertisers and marketers; and

· increased smartphone adoption (iPhone, Android, Blackberry) by consumers.





Statement of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer


Introduction

During the first half of 2010, Velti benefited from demand for its technology and services from existing and new customers, who are increasingly turning to mobile advertising and marketing as a way to engage and retain consumers, and measure and optimize traditional media expenditure.

Financial Performance


For the first half of 2010, the Company's total revenues were $38.2 million, an increase of $24.1 million (or 170%) as compared with $14.1 million for the first half of 2009.

The Company's revenue growth results from its continuing strong relationships with mobile operator and advertising agency customers as well as its ability to develop new relationships with brands and advertising agencies in developed and emerging markets.

In connection with the Company's proposed public offering in the United States, it has converted from reporting its financial results under IFRS to reporting its financial results in accordance with US GAAP. In addition, the Company has for the first time reviewed its historic results on a quarterly basis, having previously determined and reported half and full year results only. As a result of each of these exercises, in its US GAAP-based results, the Company deferred a portion of the revenue previously reported under IFRS for the six months ending June 30, 2009 to the second half of 2009. The Company did not experience the same large deferral for 2010. Accordingly, the increase in revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009 is enhanced. After the completion of the transformation of its financial statements and its contracts to US GAAP, the Company expects its revenue seasonality to return to its historic levels.

David Mann, Non-Executive Chairman commented:

"The mobile medium is increasingly attractive to wireless carriers, brands and agencies around the world as a highly effective and measurable marketing and advertising strategy. Our business momentum, geographic expansion, and revenue growth are evidence of the traction being gained in this innovative channel."

Alexandros Moukas, Chief Executive Officer added:

"Velti continues to enjoy significant organic revenue growth and improved EBITDA as a result of its broad offering of software solutions in its mGage technology platform that offers precisely targeted, interactive and measurable marketing and advertising campaigns to its customers."

Operational Review

Introduction



The Company is a leading global provider of mobile marketing and advertising solutions that enable brands, advertising agencies, mobile operators and media to implement highly targeted, interactive and measurable campaigns by communicating with and engaging consumers via their mobile devices. Its platform allows its customers to use mobile and traditional media to contact targeted consumers, engage the consumer through the mobile internet and applications, convert them into customers and continue to actively manage the relationship between the brand and the consumer through the mobile channel. In the first half of 2010, over 500 brands, advertising agencies, mobile operators and media companies, including 11 of the 20 largest mobile operators worldwide, used its platform to conduct over 1,200 campaigns. The Company has the ability to conduct campaigns in over 35 countries and reach more than 2.75 billion global consumers.



The Company believes its integrated, easy to use, end-to-end platform is one of the most extensive mobile marketing and advertising campaign management platform in the industry. Whether the goal of the mobile campaign is to raise brand awareness, acquire new customers, increase loyalty or revenues, its platform enables brands, including mobile operators, and advertising agencies, to plan, execute, monitor and measure mobile marketing and advertising campaigns in real time throughout the campaign lifecycle. In addition, its platform enables the execution of campaigns that are not just driven by mobile media, but also seek to incorporate traditional media such as television, print, radio and outdoor advertising.



During the first half of 2010, the Company continued the global roll-out of the enhanced version of its proprietary platform, Velti mGage™, which provides a one-stop-shop where its customers may plan marketing and advertising campaigns. They can also select advertising inventory, manage media buys, create mobile applications, websites and widgets, build mobile CRM campaigns and track performance across their entire campaign in real-time.



The Company believes the mobile device is emerging as the principal interactive channel for brands to reach consumers since it is the only media platforms that has access to the consumer virtually anytime and anywhere. This is further driven by the continued growth of wireless data subscribers, the proliferation of mobile devices, smart phones and advanced wireless networks, and the increased provision of third party mobile content, applications and services. Increasingly, brands and advertising agencies are recognizing the unique benefits of the mobile channel and they are seeking to maximize its potential by integrating mobile media within their overall advertising and marketing campaigns. Its platform allows its customers to focus on campaign strategy, creativity and media efficiency without having to worry about the complexity of implementing mobile marketing and advertising campaigns globally.



As of the first half of 2010, the Company has 506 employees globally excluding its joint ventures, with 134 in the critical area of sales, marketing and business development, and 212 engineers and software developers.



Company Strategy



The Company's objective is to be the leading global provider of mobile marketing and advertising solutions across multiple media. The Company intends to make it easier and more cost effective for brands, advertising agencies, mobile operators and media companies to take advantage of the unique benefits of mobile marketing and advertising campaigns, thereby further facilitating the growth in this market. The principal elements of its strategy are:

· Capitalize upon existing customer relationships and acquire new customers as the market expands. The Company intends to capitalize on its deep, trusted customer relationships to broaden the adoption of its solutions as their mobile marketing and advertising budgets and campaign requirements increase over time. The Company also intends to aggressively acquire new customers, educating them regarding the benefits of mobile marketing and advertising, the breadth and uniqueness of our solutions, and its ability to satisfy their global marketing and advertising campaign requirements.

· Deepen existing and add new advertising agency relationships. Advertising agencies provide important strategic advice to brands on the execution of marketing and advertising strategies while brands often delegate control to an advertising agency over a significant portion of the brand's marketing and advertising budget. The Company intends to continue to build and deepen its relationships with advertising agencies by continuing to increase its dedicated agency sales force, to enable the Company to accelerate the acquisition of new brands and deepen its relationships with existing brand and media customers.

· Grow revenue and enhance profitability by emphasizing the marketing portion of mobile campaigns. Mobile marketing enables brands and advertising agencies to engage and build long-term relationships with consumers, which the Company believes causes market opportunity for mobile marketing to be greater than the market for mobile advertising. Its fully integrated marketing and advertising platform allows its customers to use both mobile and traditional media to reach targeted consumers, engage consumers through the mobile internet and applications, convert consumers into customers by triggering a desired action and actively manage the relationship with the consumer through the mobile channel. By focusing on the entire campaign lifecycle, the Company is positioned to take advantage of the significant marketing budget dedicated to maintaining customer relationships and marketing additional goods and services to existing customers.

· Enable the Company's platform by addressing technology shifts in mobile devices and computing. The Company believes the mobile device marketplace by its nature undergoes constant change as new technologies and products emerge. In particular, the Company believes that smartphone devices as well as tablet computers with mobile capabilities are growing and important components of mobile communications. The Company devotes significant resources to address this evolving technology landscape with robust application interfaces for its platform that ensure it will be able to address the mobile marketplace as consumer device preferences evolve.

· Extend the Company's leadership position by continuing to invest in its platform. The Company believes that the technical capabilities of its platform significantly surpass the ability of its competitors to provide brands, advertising agencies, mobile operators and media companies a comprehensive view of a consumer's interaction and engagement across a variety of media. The Company's recent research and development activities have been focused on enhancements to its platform, resulting in the release of its Velti mGage platform, an online, fully integrated end-to-end mobile marketing and advertising platform launched in January 2010. The Company intends to continue to invest in, and enhance the functionality of Velti mGage and develop new technology solutions to further strengthen and broaden its end-to-end platform. Generally, the Company targets new releases of its software every eight weeks to meet the evolving needs of its customers and address potential new customers and markets.

· Encourage the adoption of the Company's platform by third parties. The Company's Velti mGage platform provides a scalable, open architecture platform with application programming interfaces, or APIs, that allows third parties, including content delivery platform providers, application providers, campaign optimization specialists, mobile ad networks, and analytic and billing providers, to use the Velti mGage platform to execute marketing and advertising campaigns as well as to create new business opportunities and technology innovations. The Company has designed its platform to become central to the creation of a connected, global mobile marketing and advertising marketplace, and it believes that this platform will form the basis for a global mobile marketing and advertising ecosystem.

· Continue global expansion and strategically pursue partnerships and acquisitions. The Company intends to continue its geographic expansion into additional markets over time as needed in order to support its current and prospective customers and to expand our business. In addition, the Company will continue to evaluate and pursue strategic partnerships and acquisitions to further strengthen its platform, increase its geographic presence, expand relationships and enter into adjacent markets. Examples of what the Company has completed include its:

o Acquisition of Media Cannon in 2010;

o Acquisition of Ad Infuse in 2009;

o Acquisition of M-Telecom in 2007;

o Close cooperation with the Interpublic Group of Companies, Inc.;

o Joint venture with HT Media in India to form HT Mobile Solutions; and

o Minority investment and partnership with CASEE in China.



Global Expansion Continues

In the first half of the year, the Company continued to gain traction in greater China through its investment in CASEE, adding more than 150 new clients for Velti and its joint ventures, including Samsung, Coke, Canon, Lenovo, Paramount, Shell, Mars, Bharti, Movistar and Google. In addition, its joint venture with India's HT Media has launched more than 100 unique campaigns for over 50 unique brands such as Samsung, Blackberry, McDonald's, and Coca-Cola.



Acquisitionof Media Cannon

In June 2010, the Company completed the acquisition of Media Cannon, a developer of mobile advertising tools and technology. The acquisition brings Velti new US-based strategic customers including Tier-1 wireless carriers and additional premier advertising agencies and brands that were not already customers of Velti, further increasing Velti's US footprint.

Launch of Velti mGage 8.0™

During the first half of 2010, the Company enhanced its mGage platform with the launch of version 8.0, unifying mobile media planning, mobile advertising, mobile marketing and mobile CRM, giving its customers far easier access to a wide range of mobile capabilities on a self-service basis.

The Company has continued to expand and develop its management team as the business grows and expands internationally

Under the terms of the proposed asset purchase agreement and to facilitate the sale, Velti’s U.S. operations, including Velti Inc. and Air2Web, Inc., filed voluntary petitions for Chapter 11. The Company’s Mobclix unit has filed a Chapter 7 petition.

All other Velti businesses continue to operate as normal while the Company and its investment bank continue to work to find the best outcome for all of Velti’s businesses. The voluntary decision to delist from NASDAQ was taken following the Company’s review of several factors, including its previously disclosed noncompliance with the minimum bid price requirements of NASDAQ.

Also among these factors is the Company’s inability to satisfy questions raised by NASDAQ concerning its ability to maintain eligibility for continued listing on NASDAQ following completion of its proposed sale of its mobile marketing business, as well as the Chapter 11 proceedings for certain of its U.S. subsidiaries and the Chapter 7 filing of Mobclix.

The Company will work with market makers to enable its ordinary shares to be quoted on the over-the-counter market following its NASDAQ delisting. The Company expects that its ordinary shares will continue to trade over-the-counter so long as a market maker demonstrates an interest in trading the ordinary shares. However, the Company can provide no assurance that the trading in its ordinary shares will continue in the over-the-counter market or in any other form.

Velti Closes Sale of Mobile Marketing Business to GSO Capital Partners

San Francisco – January 3, 2014 –

Velti plc announced today that the Company has closed the sale of its mobile marketing business to affiliates of GSO Capital Partners LP (“GSO”), the credit division of Blackstone (NYSE: BX). The transaction includes the sale of business lines operated by Velti Inc. and Air2Web Inc. in the U.S., Air2Web India, Velti DR Limited and Mobile Interactive Group, Ltd. in the U.K., and Velti Netherlands B.V. in the Netherlands.

As previously announced, the Company is operating its U.S. operations as debtors-in-possession under the protection of the U.S. bankruptcy laws, while the Company’s operations in the U.K., Greece, China, Brazil, India, Russia, the United Arab Emirates, and other jurisdictions outside the U.S. are continuing normal business operations. Upon today’s closing of the transaction, the mobile marketing businesses sold to GSO are no longer operating under U.S. bankruptcy protection. The U.K. business lines included in the sale, including Velti DR Limited and Mobile Interactive Group, Ltd., were sold to GSO through an administration process that was commenced today in London.

Those business lines are no longer a part of the U.K. administration process. The remainder of the Company’s business lines, primarily consisting of its Performance Marketing Business Unit operated out of Greece, and with business in Central and Eastern Europe and the Middle East, will continue to operate normally.

so eine Aktie ist mir auch noch nicht untergekommen:

1) sie wird weiter gehandelt, OTC in USA gibt es laufend Umsätze
2) die Webseite sieht aus, wie die Welt nach einer Neutronenbombe: alles noch da, aber keinerlei Veränderung seit 2013/14
3) im Netz findet Velti nicht statt, alles was ich über Google finden kann ist genauso alt
4) aber auf LinkedIn gibt es laufend aktuelle Stellenanzeigen, die letzte wurde vor drei Tagen gepostet

=>wer kann sich darauf einen Reim machen?

habe noch Einiges zu einem class-action-Verfahren gefunden,

welches aber erfolglos geblieben ist: http://www.jgschwartzlawblog.com/2015/04/shareholders-claim-…

Lustigerweise gibt es eine recht große short-position bei OTC-markets...


Aber egal, mehr Zeit sollte man wohl nicht reinstecken, weswegen ich Velti ab jetzt in meine Gruppe der Desaparecidos aufnehme. Mein erster Nicht-Chinese dort...
