WEBORAMA: CONSOLIDATED REVENUE FOR THE FIRST HALF
2015 STANDS AT €11,953K
Weborama has achieved a consolidated revenue of €11,953K for the 1st half of 2015. Considering that the consolidated revenue for the same period of 2014 was €11,523K, business activity has increased by+4%. Excluding the depreciation of the rouble over the period and on a like-for-like basis, the difference amounts to +12%. International business activity is stable at 69% of the group's overall sales over the full 1st half year.
The company's business activity was strongly influenced by the acceleration of the DMP (Data Management Platform) market during this first half year. Many advertisers and publishers rolled out their data strategy and decided to acquire a DMP, the technology that supports any development in terms of data.
The Weborama offer combines technology (one of the most technically advanced DMPs) and data science (Weborama's database has 440 million profiles in Europe) to ensure the company a clear competitive edge at the European level.
In Russia, the company has of course been affected by the sharp fall of the rouble. Weborama continues to move forward by implementing the development of data strategies with brands such as Unilever, Nestlé, McDonald's, Ford, etc. In spite of the economic context, Weborama's business activity in Russia continues to enjoy strong growth in terms of local currency.
Weborama has also continued to build ambitious data projects with its publisher partners: in France, with Les Echos, Canal régie, or Orange and Leboncoin. In Russia, new agreements have been concluded with Gismeteo and RBC portals. In Italy, TgAds, LeonardoADV, RAI Publicita, IOL and RCS have put their trust inWeborama's solutions over this first half year.
The evolution of the organic growth is encouraging, with a second quarter that has been much more dynamic than the first. The company's efforts over the past few years to ensure its leading role in the development of the data market are beginning to pay off. Significant investments on the human level combined with to the ruble crisis, will have an impact on this first half year results.
The company will continue to invest in R&D, infrastructure and data science and will carry on strengthening its teams internationally so as to pursue its strategy of gaining market share.
