Verve (Ticker: VER) is a fast-growing, profitable, digital media company that provides AI-driven ad-software solutions. Verve matches global advertiser demand with publisher ad-supply, enhancing results through first-party data from its own content. Aligned with the mission, “Let’s make media better,” the company focuses on enabling better outcomes for brands, agencies, and publishers with responsible advertising solutions, with an emphasis on emerging media channels. Verve’s main operational presence is in North America and Europe. Its shares are listed on the Nasdaq First North Premier Growth Market in Stockholm and the Scale segment of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. The company has three secured bonds listed on Nasdaq Stockholm and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange Open Market.

You just have to know these things…  Loan finalized and price up! That money certainly came at a high price, though.

If anyone is wondering why the -6% dip that continued earlier today has started to turn green Verve Group SE Successfully Places Subsequent Senior Unsecured Bonds of EUR 50 million - Inderes Edit. The transaction was oversubscribed and met with strong demand from an international investor base and was placed at a price of 97.25 percent of par resulting in a yield of 3m Euribor + 4.97 percent.

In connection with that bond release, there was a mention of upcoming IR meetings, which also had entries for yesterday and today:  It would be quite interesting to know what was asked/answered there  I suppose @christoffer.jennel wasn’t among the participants either?

Personally, I would have expected an announcement by now regarding the bond issuance and especially the pricing. Usually, these are well-prepared in advance and then handled quickly so that the matter doesn’t linger in the background. I interpret the duration of the process and the share price performance over the last few days as indicating that there hasn’t been much demand for this bond, at least at the price Verve was hoping for. Based on the share price chart for the last hour or so, one could imagine the bond is now finalized, so we’ll wait for the announcement.

I don’t think this has been posted here yet. I came across a relatively recent video featuring an interview (in German) with Verve’s “Head of Investor Relations” Ingo Middelmenne. From 4:00 onwards, there’s a rather unusual comment regarding market positions in the Android environment.

Sharing similar thoughts and have been an owner for just as long. I’ve bought the dips and trimmed during rallies. Now there is quite a strong overreaction in the air again, so I have added to my position somewhat over the past few days. About the company in general: in my opinion, the tech stack (i.e., the advertising platform & integrations) is still strong, but there are problems particularly in sales (i.e., customer acquisition) and certainly to some extent also in the company’s top management. The company’s background (before the shift to ad-tech) was in merging smaller gaming firms and benefiting from the long tail of their already released games (i.e., the so-called end-of-life monetization). At that time, it was quite logical that organic growth was not the focus and growth came practically through acquisitions. However, after the strategy shift, this should no longer continue; instead, acquisitions should aim for better synergies and organic growth. As I understand it, that platform should be an attractive target for acquisitions, so I wouldn’t be surprised if (also public) offers to shareholders emerge soon. But until this happens, or we see organic growth and improved profitability, the stock is unlikely to take off in the same way as in 2020–2021 and 2024.

You just have to keep buying resolutely when it’s cheap, but at the same time try to keep the position size small because we don’t know how low we’ll go yet. I’ve also been thinking that in a worst-case scenario, it might find new momentum as low as the 10 SEK level. Fortunately, I haven’t built a larger position in the company yet, as I’ve been waiting for further disappointments and better buying opportunities.

MGI’s Q2 revenues came in lower than expected, while operating profit was in line with our estimates. MGI decided to lower its guidance for 2023 due to a more challenging market environment. Operating cash flow improved compared to last quarter and should improve further as the year continues. Despite the challenging short-term outlook, MGI has maintained good operating margins. As highlighted in yesterday’s CMD, MGI is well-positioned to capture further market share and we see a clear upside in the low valuation as ad spending picks back up.
