Adaptive Medias' Media Graph Ad-Tech Mobile Platform to Support Multichannel Network Monetization Opportunities
Media Graph, Industry's First Mobile First Video Player, Will Empower Networks to Become Less Reliant on Google's Platform
Adaptive Medias Inc. - GlobeNewswire - 59 minutes ago
IRVINE, Calif., July 21, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Adaptive Medias, Inc. (ADTM), a leading provider of mobile video delivery and monetization solutions for publishers, content producers, and advertisers, is pleased to announce its latest capability of supporting multichannel networks (MCNs) in their efforts to monetize their video channels and manage their distribution strategies through the Company's leading Media Graph ad-tech platform.
Content creators have long relied on Google's YouTube platform for end-to-end video solutions, including content syndication, a video player, analytics, and revenue sharing. Their dependency on Google's platform has made it difficult to realize an off-YouTube strategy that supports growth, but that has been due to a fragmented digital video industry. Up until now, it has not been easy to find distribution partners who can give you the same footprint as YouTube and will publish content at the push of a button.
Adaptive Medias' Media Graph provides a comprehensive mobile video technology platform for the delivery and monetization of video content and high-impact rich media ads across multiple devices. Media Graph also includes a mobile-first video player, a faster, lighter, more capable player that works on any screen or device.
"The mobile player aspect is critical for publishers today," said Omar Akram, Chairman of Adaptive Medias. "Although there are many vendors who offer a video player, they struggle to deliver a consistent and reliable user experience in mobile environments. With nearly 75% of the world's mobile data traffic expected to be video by 2019, that makes for a significant loss of monetization opportunities, which carves a niche and significant opportunity for Adaptive Medias' leading Media Graph mobile platform."
The Company's Media Graph capabilities also include:
- HTML5 (Fully Responsive)/Flash-Friendly Video Player: Users can easily and effectively deliver and monetize digital content across all screens and devices through one centralized location with a new player that is lighter, faster, and mobile capable.
- Easy Interface: Users can navigate through an elegant, simplified UI to monetize their ad operations and organize workflow.
- Collaboration Tools for Cross-Account Features: Users have the flexibility of connecting with publishers from different accounts, which includes sharing of video playlists and syncing players across multiple sites.
- Dynamic Playlists: Users can manage dynamically updated video playlists, which show optimal video content based on their interests. Advertisers are matched together with relevant content based on keywords, length, and vertical.
- White Label Branding: Users can establish their own platform around their brand and clientele.
- Compliance Tools: Users can implement dynamic block lists that supervise behavior of third-party creatives.
- Ad Serving DNA: Cutting edge server technology built directly into the Media Graph platform, resulting in increased revenue by delivering the fastest ad load times.
eMarketer predicts mobile advertisers will spend $64.25 billion globally on mobile in 2015, a surge of nearly 60% over 2014. This requires publishers and producers to place greater emphasis on digital video, particularly for mobile.
MCNs are currently valued at an estimated $20 billion, according to a study of three years' worth of MCN investments released by media research firm Ampere Analysis. The research firm also found that a typical MCN with 1 billion monthly views would be valued at an estimated $97 million, with $21 million in gross revenue annually.

Well, it looks like ...
CSTI's client is determined to buy those remaining 29,100 shares at $.45, but it seems as though shareholders are not yet ready to cough them up ... I'll ask again, any volunteers ???
IWantedToBelieve ... Well, ...
"Since May, 33% of Adaptive Media's employees have bolted."
does this ...
"Under my leadership, Adaptive stabilized its stock and its staff after the sudden loss of its previous CEO, reduced its operating expenses by nearly $1m a month, continued to grow revenue and margin and raised additional equity funding."
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1428397/000114420415038197/v413709_ex10-1.htm
or this ...
"As a result, during the first half of 2015, we executed a cost reduction plan designed to focus, simplify and align costs with our most promising opportunity, our Media Graph platform. We expect these cost reductions to generate substantial annualized savings through workforce cuts, decreasing reliance on certain outside services and reducing our general overhead. Although this was a difficult but necessary decision, I believe this plan places us in the best long-term position for success."
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/adaptive-medias-inc-provides-positive-130300289.html
really sound like those employees bolted, or were they released as a result of a plan to reduce costs to "align costs with our most promising opportunity, our Media Graph platform" ???
These remarks came from neither Linkedin nor Google, both of which I know how to use quite well myself.
Perhaps you should change your statement about employees bolting unless you talked to all of them individually.
ADTM
236T568 ... Well, I guess ...
"yep, to support the market so that the ADTM stock price doesn't fall below .10"
you don't understand just how silly that sounds, do you ???
Perhaps you can tell us how many hundreds of thousands of dollars insiders have spent, or thrown away according to your way of thinking, over the last year or so just to keep the share price from falling below $.10 ???? ... simple, very simple, indeed !!!
236T568 ... Well, ...
"You do understand that market maker CSTI (and sometimes BMAK) has been used by ADTM insiders to support the ADTM stock price for the last year or so, don't you?"
that's just one more thing you can't prove, besides if an insider wants to spend $18,000 to buy 40,000 shares of ADTM at $.45 that's fine by me ... probably has good reason for doing so, wouldn't you think ???
Just noticed ...
that CSTI is at the high bid of $.45 for those remaining 29,100 shares ... will be interesting to see if someone coughs them up ... any volunteers here ???
Just some ...
interesting tidbits:
CSTI had a client that had a standing order to buy 40,000 shares at $.40 [$16,000] for the last couple days, but yesterday it appears that they settled for about 10,900 shares at $.45 toward the end of the day ...

as earlier today CSTI had a bid in for 29,100 shares at $.45 ... can't tell if they still want those shares as CSTI now has a higher bid in for 2,500 shares at $.465. Anyway, it's just nice to see that someone wants to buy that many shares, especially when most here believe the share price is going down much further.
Also, it's interesting to note that not even the MMs have been shorting ADTM the last 5 days ...

IWantedToBelieve ... Well, first of all ...
the OneScreen PR was an interesting find; however, it didn't really surprise me seeing that Michelle Rivera appeared to have worked at OneScreen when Elizabeth Fairchild wrote the PR, and Ms. Rivera replaced her as Marketing Manager when she left the Company shortly after the PR was published. As we all know, Michelle is now the Marketing Manager at Adaptive Medias, so is it so terrible that she was the one that most likely updated it ?? ...
"This is a very exciting step forward in our mission to simplify video publishing and monetization for our thousands of publisher clients using our Media Graph platform," said Omar Akram, Adaptive Medias President.
"The integration will include Flash-based advertising, HTML5, Android, and iOS platforms. The IMA3 SDK features available through the Media Graph platform will include:"
Furthermore, we shouldn't forget that the new and improved Media Graph Platform now incorporates Adaptive Media's SSP and Ember's DSP technology. So, I'll ask again, do you know of any other player that eliminates the need for fragmented services ???
Also, Google's comments in the PR shouldn't be that surprising as Gokul Rajaram the “Godfather of AdSense” was a member of OneScreen's advisory board.
OneScreen - Company Overview
“It is clear that OneScreen is developing innovative technologies that will introduce new monetization opportunities for publishers and content owners, while enabling advertisers with targeting that they demand. I am delighted to work with a company that is at the vanguard of the next generation of digital video companies.” – Gokul Rajaram the “Godfather of AdSense”
http://company.onescreen.com/ ... The page is no longer available.
Regarding Damian Ancukiewicz, I guess I should have included this ...
Finally, perhaps you can answer this question, why do you think Nicolas Borensztein has stayed on board with some 20 other employees when it's common knowledge that Adaptive is strapped for cash ??? ... seems like most of the current employees would have bolted by now, wouldn't you think ???
ADTM
IWantedToBelieve ... Just curious, but ...
"Then it's terribly unfortunate that they weren't able to retain the engineers responsible for developing and maintaining the mobile player, as well as the Media Graph platform. Now they have 7 programmers left, 1 of which is an intern, to pick-up-the-slack.
Are they up-to-the-task? You can see their LinkedIn profiles as well as I can."
do you think this ...
https://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=39888529&authType=name&authToken=UgrG&trk=prof-sb-browse_map-name
was just coincidence, or might there have been a plan ???
"The integration will include Flash-based advertising, HTML5, Android, and iOS platforms. The IMA3 SDK features available through the Media Graph platform will include:
- Full use of Google's large network of trusted online video advertisers in the AdSense platform and integration into DoubleClick for Publishers for directly sold campaigns.
- Ability to set rules for ad duration, number of ads played per video, cue point behavior, and content-specific rules.
- Exclusive access to new ad formats and features in development by Google, such as TrueView Instream Video Ads, standard linear and non-linear in-stream ads, and interactive in-stream expanding ads."
In any event, it does look like the current team is up to the task regarding not only maintaining the Media Graph Platform, but updating and adapting it for new opportunities, wouldn't you say ??? Furthermore, do you know of any other player that can do everything that the Media Graph is capable of ???

Doctruth ... Well, he and ...
Batmasian have more to lose than anyone else and retaliating would seem foolish to me, but you can never know about Brodeur. Frankly, I wouldn't be surprised if Batmasian wanted him out of the way as well. Only time will tell now.
IWantedToBelieve ... I'm aware ...
that Adaptive lost some good people, but I wouldn't underestimate the current crew. As Mr. Akram indicated, the focus has changed to "mobile first" and the Media Graph, and on fees and other higher margin revenues. How can you know for sure that the remaining employees aren't up to the task ??
Doctruth ... I think you may be referring to this ...
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=113404760
I was hoping we could somehow acquire Beanstock, but that doesn't look like it's going to happen unless Mr. Akram can mend the relationship with Mr. Waltz ... frankly, I have no idea what's going to happen next. I would think a capital raise would be in the offing, but I don't think the Company is going to get anymore money from Mr. Batmasian.
I'm just awaiting the Company's next move, whatever that might be. I think if anyone can get Adaptive back on the right track it could be Akram. All just my opinion, of course.
Doctruth ... Well, ...
I can't disagree with you there ... that news couldn't have come at a better time, in my opinion. I think Omar Akram can now perhaps turn this Company around without any interference ... at least I hope so.
Also, I have a question for you regarding this ...
"It's in the SEC filing........., look it up..... That's how they roll....It is essentially a holding company that a few people dip their straws into and suck out Money, you know Mucho Dinero? Sort of like a Giant Tick or Mosquito does......"
I read through the last 10-Q pretty thoroughly and I don't know what you're talking about. Would you mind pointing out to me where I can find exactly what you're referring to ??

July 06, 2015 09:03 ET
IRVINE, Calif., July 6, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Content syndication and monetization company, Adaptive Medias, Inc. (OTCQB:ADTM), a leader in programmatic advertising across mobile, video and online display, is pleased to release a recent interview with Head of Business Development Nick Lynch on TheStockRadio.com.
Lynch breaks down the digital media industry, Adaptive Medias' proprietary technology platform Media Graph, and its mobile-first video player, a faster, lighter, and more capable player that functions seamlessly across all devices. These capabilities are considered significant as Cisco finds nearly 75% of the world's mobile data traffic will be video by 2019.
"There are many vendors out there who offer a digital video player, but they struggle to successfully integrate them into mobile environments even though audience demand for mobile video is at an all-time high," Lynch said. "These evolving audience behaviors present huge opportunities for us."

ed2000 ... Well, ...
"Norman is to busy syphoning money off the top, for shareholders to ever get a piece"
you seem to have the same silly notion as ...
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=115100654
Brodeur and Akram account for all of about $83,000 of the $1,347,000 (after the $405,000 non-recurring settlement charge), so how do you think the Company can keep all its employees happy if it didn't use most of that money to pay them ???
All I seem to hear is how Admin is skimming money, yet no one has provided any evidence of that happening ... I wonder why ??? It reminds me of those who keep saying that insiders are always selling ... now, how can that happen if the Company doesn't first file an SEC Form S-1 or S-3 ... you seen one ???
Also, regarding the $1 million in revenue ... it really doesn't take a genius to figure out that the Company won't be able to make it if they don't rev up a lot more than the $1 million in revenues despite the $3 million savings in operating expenses ... no one will really know what they're capable of until we see the next two 10-Qs ... so, why harp on this fact all the time ??? ... it's old news now !!!
IWantedToBelieve ... Well, ...
"More than adding a single intern, I'm curious as to who've they've lost in the last couple months - other than Jim Waltz:"
if you really want to waste your time, it only takes a little effort to find the 30 or so employees that left, and I didn't find one who was afraid of including Adaptive and/or OneScreen on their résumé like some here are wont to believe.
And just for your information, Ember, Inc. ...
http://www.rackspace.com/blog/rackspace-startup-program-spotlight-on-ember-an-online-video-advertising-platform-on-the-rackspace-cloud/
was co-founded by Nic Borensztein (CEO), Damian Ancukiewicz and Vikaas Sharma, and when it was acquired by Adaptive, the Company retained Borensztein and Ancukiewicz. Also, Sal Aziz served as an advisor to Ember until the acquisition.
Frankly, as long as ADTM has Borensztein ...

and now in New York with Adaptivem on the NASDAQ Tower Marquee ... hmmmmm !!

casbboy ... Well, you sure seem ...
"General&Admin expense: $1,041,172 (???)
That sounds like a lot. Hopefully they are improving on this. Oh wait, the Admins were taking $1,752,000 last quarter alone. Sounds like that expense is getting out of control. But let's move on."
to have a knack for exaggerating and providing misinformation ...
For the three months ended March 31, 2015, general and administrative expenses increased to $1,752,127 from $537,319 in the comparable period of 2014, an increase of $1,214,808 or 226%. The increase was primarily due to the overall increase in our operations, specifically investor relations expenses and personnel expenses. This increase also includes $405,000 in accrued cash settlement expenses. In 2015 we expect to reduce our general and administrative cost footprint to a minimum requirement.
Now, what part of that says "Admin" is paying themselves $1,752,000 ???
Also, ...
For the three months ended March 31, 2015, stock compensation expense increased to $3,941,118 from $319,304 in the comparable period of 2014, an increase of $3,621,814 or 1,134%. This increase was due to ongoing investor relation efforts and a settlement expense, to be paid in common stock and warrants valued at $3,363,485, as discussed in footnote 10 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Just in case you forgot, all but $577,633 is non-recurring !!

26 employees going forward compared to the 60 employees at the first of the year. I guess Mr. Waltz wasn't kidding when he said he helped reduce operating costs by $1 million per month, or around $10-$12 million on an annualized basis.
How's that for a spin ???
ADAPTIVE MEDIAS, INC. PROVIDES POSITIVE CORPORATE UPDATE
Highlights:
· Second Quarter Revenues Expected to be between $1 Million and $1.1 Million
· Successful Cost Reduction Plan to Help Achieve Breakeven Results Ahead of Schedule
· Focus on “Mobile First” Ad-Tech Platform Meeting with Increasing Customer Demand
IRVINE, California, July 1, 2015 - - Content syndication and monetization company, Adaptive Medias, Inc. (OTCQB: ADTM), a leader in programmatic advertising across mobile, video and online display, today provided financial guidance for its second quarter fiscal year 2015 results.
Company’s Focus on Media Graph Platform Key to Future Revenue Growth
Revenues for the second quarter are expected to be between $1 million to $1.1 million, compared to $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2014. The Company noted that its business strategy going forward will focus more on supporting the growth of Media Graph, its industry-leading high margined “mobile first” ad-tech platform, versus its earlier focus on lower-margined ad revenues from its marketplace platform. This shift in strategy is expected to generate more consistent recurring revenues and growth in the Company’s gross margins.
Company Expects to Achieve Breakeven Results Earlier than Anticipated
The Company today also announced that its recently implemented cost reduction plan, which, coupled with its strong revenue pipeline, has significantly reduced its operating losses. As a result, the Company expects to achieve positive cash flow and breakeven results earlier than previously anticipated. However, the Company still expects a need to raise additional capital in the interim until profitability is achieved.
“For our people, we need to create an empowered, entrepreneurial culture that fosters more creativity and innovation. Over the years we've seen that tighter, more nimble teams can drive faster innovation and deliver higher value,” said Omar Akram, President and Chief Financial Officer of Adaptive Medias, Inc. “As a result, during the first half of 2015, we executed a cost reduction plan designed to focus, simplify and align costs with our most promising opportunity, our Media Graph platform. We expect these cost reductions to generate substantial annualized savings through workforce cuts, decreasing reliance on certain outside services and reducing our general overhead. Although this was a difficult but necessary decision, I believe this plan places us in the best long-term position for success.”
Mr. Akram continued, “We took a number of important actions in the first half of 2015 to support our long-term growth. These actions include the continued rollout of our Media Graph platform, a reduction in operating costs and securing additional capital. We believe these actions enable the Company to accelerate revenue growth, improve margins, and slow our burn rate moving us closer to profitability. As we move into the second half of the year, we remain focused on our long-term growth drivers, with disciplined near-term execution and focus on our customers.”

Three Ad Tech Trends to Watch in 2015
Beth Principi -- February 19, 2015 8:00 am
I ike to equate the digital ad tech ecosystem to the island on Lost. You think you have it all figured out until a polar bear spontaneously rushes you from behind, adding another variable to an already complex equation. You adjust your thinking only to find out Ethan’s name isn’t on the damn flight manifest! Then you adjust again, only to find Rousseau has been living on the island for 16 years, and that’s only season one. It’s chaotic, unpredictable and frustrating—exactly like the digital ad tech industry.
At the very beginning, online advertising was primarily sent via email. With email ads we thought we figured out internet advertising, only to have them given a new, ugly name: spam. Being the creative people we are, we found a way around this by adjusting to display and web banner advertisements. We then thought, “Hey, we really have this whole online ad world figured out!” Enter bots. Enter ad fraud. Enter the need for targeted advertising. Enter the massive expansion of the internet.
So we readjust, and readjust, and readjust. Now it’s 2015 and the ad tech industry is in need of more readjustments than ever before. These shifts in the ad tech industry will be equally as game-changing as finding that hatch in the middle of the jungle at the end of season one, and will completely alter the dynamic of the online advertising story.
Ad Fraud
According to comScore, as much as 36% of online traffic is automated bot activity, yet, online marketing is continuing to increase as advertisers increase online ad budgets. According to Forrester, digital advertising buys will overtake TV in 2016, and reach $103 billion in 2019 to make up 36% of all ad spending. So while fraudulent traffic is increasing, so is online ad spending—essentially multiplying the risk of fraud. Not only that, but bots are finding new and more intelligent ways around anti-fraud technology.
Unlike humans, bots don’t discriminate, leaving any advertiser susceptible to fraudulent traffic. According to a report by the Financial Times, part of a Mercedes-Benz online ad campaign was viewed more often by bots than by human beings. Other big advertisers who have fell victim to ad fraud include L’Oréal, General Motors, and Verizon Communications. A study by White Ops and the Association of National Advertisers estimates that marketers will waste $6.3 billion on internet ads that aren’t delivered to humans.
So how do advertisers survive click-fraud? By combatting it, of course. By looking for a Jack Shephard or John Locke—basically anyone insightful enough to battle fraudulent traffic. Companies like eZanga have advanced click fraud technology in place to help advertisers and publishers combat fraudulent traffic. For years, eZanga has continuously evolved its defenses when presented with new dangers. Sounds a lot like the Lost squad doesn’t it?
Location-Based Programmatic Ads
Just like the island changed its inhabitants’ outlook on life, programmatic technology is changing everyone’s perception of digital advertising. Everything advertisers knew about buying and selling ads has shifted dramatically since the rise of programmatic technology. It’s no longer effective for humans to buy and sell digital ads. Why? Because it’s expensive, unreliable, and many times ineffective. Programmatic is now the name of the game. It is an automated, auction-based technology that allows advertisers to reach engaged, relevant users across any vertical in real time. It can be effectively used to streamline the buying and selling of ads on multiple, fragmented platforms. According to eMarketer, US programmatic digital display ad spending grew 137.1% to eclipse $10 billion in 2014, accounting for 45% of the US digital display ad market. It doesn’t get much more lucrative than that.
Well, what about taking programmatic a step further and implementing a location-based service? Programmatic is crucial to location-focused ads because it allows advertisers to reach highly targeted audiences at scale within narrowly focused locations. Historically, local advertisers were required to spend large budgets on television to harness the power of video advertising. Today, programmatic location-focused online video advertising is making it inexpensive and effective to target the right consumers. Combining location-based services and programmatic is the next frontier in buying and selling ads. In fact, Nexstar Broadcasting Group just acquired Yashi, a location-focused programmatic ad platform, for a cool $33 million. When it comes to programmatic and LBS, I know John Locke is with me when I say, “It’s our destiny.”
Blending Content with Advertising
Although the “king” on the island of Lost may be debatable, the reigning king of the internet it is indisputably content. This is particularly true for video, which is precisely why blending content and advertising is the next best thing for targeting consumers.
Many large players in the digital ecosystem don’t produce or deal with content; they sell reach instead. The problem with this is, when you sell reach, you don’t necessarily know exactly where ads are running. This presents major problems for advertisers who don’t know if their ads are being viewed by the right people, or if they’re actually being viewed by people at all. Ad fraud becomes a large problem, and so does brand safety, but when you marry content with advertising, both problems shrink significantly. By partnering with companies like Adaptive Media, a firm that syndicates premium content, advertisers know exactly where their ads are being placed. If Cars.com wants to run an ad, this can easily be set alongside content that is car-related—essentially blending ads with content. It’s brand safe, ad safe, and consumer-focused. Now tell me; what advertiser wouldn’t love that?
Beth Principi is currently the Director of Content at Emerging Insider Communications, where she spends her days writing content for groundbreaking players in the emerging media, technology and advertising sectors.

what I call supporting the share price. 18,845 shares traded with 16,345 at or very near the ask of $.40 with only 2,500 at the bid of $.38 !!
And here's even a better example ...
on June 22nd there were 82,539 shares traded with 71,731 at the ask, only 1,700 at the bid and 9,108 between the bid and ask !!
Certainly not this ...

"the 75K shares at the .665 ask was by the market maker CSTI, which is the one that has been used by the insiders to support the stock in the last year or so"
I hope you don't mean that selling 75K shares at the ask by "insiders" (??) means they're supporting the stock !!??!!
First of all, insiders are NOT selling, and the only way for insiders to support the share price is by buying, NOT selling !!

I wonder where they'll be working ??
Also, I have to admit I didn't like seeing Mr. Waltz resigning under those circumstances; however, if he's being completely honest and accurate, then I can't help but like this ...
"Under my leadership, Adaptive stabilized its stock and its staff after the sudden loss of its previous CEO, reduced its operating expenses by nearly $1m a month, continued to grow revenue and margin and raised additional equity funding."
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1428397/000114420415038197/v413709_ex10-1.htm
If under his leadership he was indeed able to further grow revenue and margins and cut operating costs by nearly $1 million a month, perhaps we'll be seeing some significantly improved operating statements going forward .... I guess we'll know for sure come 8-15-15 !!

do you believe everything your attorney says ??? ... and what about Norman Brodeur being "in hiding" ??? Is that the reason you haven't taken him back to court to enforce your judgment and make him pay you what you're still owed ???

ADTM
236T568 ... Well, ...
"So newelong, as the ADTM stock price has dropped from about $2.00 to $0.75 since the May 2015 initial tranche of the Batmasian private placement, what part of the fact that the financing is Toxic Funding do you still not understand?"
perhaps you should first answer the question I asked on several occasions, but never got a reply ... would you still call it toxic financing if the share price had gone up ???
Besides, this ...
http://www.investopedia.com/terms/t/toxic-debt.asp
is the only definition I know of regarding toxic financing. Now, where on earth did you find your version ???

is why you prefer to go this route rather than taking Brodeur back to court to enforce your judgment and make him pay you what you're due ????
ADTM
newelong's response to casbboy ...
Anybody who has been paying attention to my posts would know that Adaptive Medias and OneScreen have been working together since 2013. Adaptive's website has a page entitled "RESOURCES" which is essentially the same as OneScreen's "RESOURCES" page when its website was live ...
https://www.adaptivem.com/resources/
Also, the following paragraph is from an article that was posted more times than necessary, and I'm sure everyone is familiar with it ...
"But in the course of Adweek's reporting this story, things changed rapidly. Patel resigned his position as CEO just after Thanksgiving (UPDATE: Patel says he was terminated). Days later, it was announced that OneScreen had been acquired by Adaptive Medias, which like OneScreen, is a public company based in Irvine, Calif., and traded on the over-the-counter markets (also known as pink sheets companies). The two companies had common investors. Adaptive Medias CEO, Qayed Shareef, is now running OneScreen."
http://www.adweek.com/news/technology/questionable-traffic-seems-follow-video-company-everywhere-154567?page=2
So, I don't know what's so unusual about incorporating the Media Graph shortly after Shareef took over when talks of an acquisition/merger were apparently mentioned way back then.
The Acquisition Agreement that contained OneScreen Merger Sub, Inc. and that you referenced was only a draft which was "dated" April, 2014. The final Agreement was dated June 30, 2014, which clearly indicated that Pubco was the preferred vehicle through which the acquisition was accomplished.
By the way, OneScreen Merger Sub, Inc. was subsequently dissolved after it was decided that Pubco was apparently the best route to go. It really pays to stay current !!
Well, thanks for finally providing us with the details of the bank transfers, neither of which were included in the Acquisition Agreement or in the pro-forma consolidated financial statements.
I'll even admit that the transfers do look somewhat suspicious, but the fact remains that neither of us know for sure why they were made. That being said, I can only guess like you as to their purpose.
With regard to Mr. Templeton, we do know that he served as a consultant to OneScreen probably for quite some time based on his settlement with Adaptive ...
"On May 6, 2015, the Company entered into a Confidential Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Gregg Templeton, pursuant to which the Company and Mr. Templeton agreed to mutually release one another from any and all obligations under previous consulting arrangements between the parties. Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, in exchange for consulting services previously rendered to the Company, the Company's shall pay to Mr. Templeton (i) a cash fee in the amount of $405,000; (ii) 318,343 shares of the Company's common stock; and (iii) a five-year warrant to purchase 1,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $3.00 per share. The foregoing summary of the terms of the Settlement Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Settlement Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference."
I'm only suggesting that perhaps those transfers were related to his consulting agreement, and just maybe they represented a portion of his $405,000 cash settlement ... who knows for sure ??
Again, I'm only guessing here, but isn't it possible that those transfers to Adaptive represented payment for services rendered ??? Even as an insider [] I don't even know for sure about those transfers ... do you know for sure ???
We only have about three weeks to go before we know whether or not the acquisition of Beanstock happens, and I believe we'll know then more about the Company's future. Also, we apparently won't know anything more about the lawsuit initiated by AdOn Network LLC until 9-24-15 ...
"The Company believes that there are good and meritorious defenses to this claim given that Adaptive Medias paid $16.5 million dollars in stock for the purchase of Media Graph, Inc., an asset of OneScreen. A demurrer was filed attacking Plaintiffs First Amended Complaint which will not be heard until September 24, 2015 given the courts backlog. The Company is awaiting the production of the underlying materials regarding this claim."
One more thing, you of course remember this article I posted ...
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=114055459
"And another article that has nothing to do with ADTM."
Then why was this topic discussed by Nick Lynch in his presentation at the LD Micro Conference ??? Oh, that's right, you don't listen to the Company's propaganda !!
ADTM
236T568 ... Well ...
for some reason I didn't think you'd get it !!
236T568 ... Well, ...
"Yikes! 0.90 and dropping!"
at least all 12,100 shares were bought at the ask ... who knows, could be a good sign !!??!!
236T568 ... Well, ...
"Whoaa, has COO Jim Waltz left ADTM?
no where to be found under management and board of directors I the ADTM website:"
it seems you answered your own question ...
4.1 Term. This Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Date, and shall continue in full force and effect until March 31, 2015 and will continue on a month-to-month basis thereafter until terminated by either party with two weeks notice.
By the way, did you already forget that Adaptive and Beanstock are in acquisition/merger negotiations ??? Also, have you ever heard of "conflict of interest" ??? If you can put the two together, then you'll have the answer as to why he left ... good luck !!
ADTM
casbboy ... Well, ...
"OneScreen created MediaGraph, Inc, which it was designed to look like a holding company for Norman Brodeur -- you will see he has all exec positions -- and created OneScreen Merger Sub, Inc. Two entities whose sole purpose was to commit fraudulent conveyance. MediaGraph was loaded up with straight cash, all OneScreen's cash, that was owed elsewhere and forwarded over to ADTM. Remember, there are bank statements from Chase that prove this."
surely you jest ... do you really expect people to believe all that nonsense ???
"OneScreen created MediaGraph, Inc, which it was designed to look like a holding company for Norman Brodeur -- you will see he has all exec positions"
http://nvsos.gov/sosentitysearch/CorpDetails.aspx?lx8nvq=SNC0wUJ0tg2nR4ZjTlmyFA%253d%253d&nt7=0
Guess again !!
"and created OneScreen Merger Sub, Inc."
Pubco was the merger sub created to collect all of the outstanding shares of Media Graph, Inc. There was never any such animal as, "OneScreen Merger Sub, Inc." ... only OneScreen, Inc.
https://delecorp.delaware.gov/tin/GINameSearch.jsp
Perhaps if you took the time to read the STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT as I suggested before, you just might understand what really happened !!!
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1428397/000114420414043556/v383937_ex10-1.htm
"Two entities whose sole purpose was to commit fraudulent conveyance. MediaGraph was loaded up with straight cash, all OneScreen's cash, that was owed elsewhere and forwarded over to ADTM."
You couldn't be further from the truth ... Media Graph, Inc. was NOT loaded with cash; in fact, if you took the time to look at the Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as I suggested before ...
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1428397/000114420414058064/v389955_ex99-3.htm
you could plainly see that not even a penny was transferred to Adaptive Medias !!! Furthermore, if you really want us to ...
"Remember, there are bank statements from Chase that prove this."
then why don't you produce these statements so we can see for ourselves. I don't know about anyone else, but frankly, based on what I've read heretofore, I'm really not interested in listening to more of your hot air !!
Oh, by the way ...
"If you were just an investor, you'd be worried, not defensive. But again, my assumption could be wrong."
I'm really glad to see you admit that !!!
ADTM
digger22 ...
"On a completely different note, who is the third board member aside from Brodeur and Waltz? It was my understanding there needs to be an odd number of members who sit on the board."
What's really needed (required by the SEC) is that the Company has three independent directors when it applies for a NASDAQ listing.
casbboy ... Well, I guess I was right !!! ...
you are indeed the designated answerer ... I asked 236T568 for one name, and you were able to come up with 8 for him ... nice job, but all of this extraneous info about time of service was a complete waste of time ... I mean what's the relevance, anyway ???
If you would have paid attention the first time [I guess you're a bit forgetful yourself] I showed you this ...
https://www.linkedin.com/vsearch/p?company=OneScreen+Inc%2E&trk=prof-0-ovw-prev_pos
you could have come up with 113 names of individuals that at one time worked for OneScreen, many who came to work for Adaptive Medias, many who went on to work with other companies and 3 who went to work for Beanstock Media. Now, while many left Adaptive, many stayed on and continue to work for the Company ... and good luck trying to find one of them that was so ashamed to work for OneScreen and Adaptive that they left the names of these companies off of their résumé.
You're really barking up the wrong tree, because as Mr. Waltz stated, the Company had transitioned from the development stage to the marketing stage; consequently, many employees were let go in order to reduce payroll along with other cost-cutting measures to the point where Adaptive should save approximately $3 million annually.
So, what's the big deal, anyway ???
Furthermore, ...
"Let me know if you need more proof. Or just ignore this altogether."
I guess you misunderstood me when I meant I was looking for proof of your oft repeated allegation that Mr. Brodeur was collecting social security payments from a deceased lady. I'm beginning to believe that the PI you hired to dig up dirt on Brodeur told you this just to give you something he knew you'd like to hear, and not feel like he was taking your money for nothing. You said we should Google this and see if something "pops". This leads me to believe you already did this yourself and found nothing, so you wanted us to do the same thing hoping something would actually "pop". So, in the final analysis, you've got no proof whatsoever !!!
