ADSUPPLY: 30+% GROWTH, BREAKTHROUGH BLOCKIQ, LARGE FOOTPRINT

Privately held AdSupply’s programmatic online marketplace is ranked by comScore as the 21st largest online advertising network and allows brands and agencies to buy high engagement advertising across quality websites, both online and on mobile. Since its inception in 2012, it has produced consecutive annual revenue growth of greater than 30%, reaching unaudited record revenues of $18.5 million in 2015. It has an installed customer base of over 1,000 publishers, with many large and well established customers such as Google, Alibaba.com, Caesars Interactive Entertainment, Esurance, World Wrestling Entertainment, Criteo, Char-Broil Grills and IAC Applications (formerly called Mindspark).

Its product line features the newly launched and patented BlockIQ™ technology (www.blockiq.com), revolutionary software that bypasses ad blockers and enables online publishers to recover lost revenue. Analysts estimate that websites currently experience between 20 to 40 percent of their ads being blocked, resulting in $22 billion of lost revenue in 2015. At the same time, according to the 2015 Ad Blocker report by Adobe Systems, the use of ad blockers in the United States is increasing at an alarming rate of 48 percent annually. The December 9, 2015 BlockIQ launch news release can be found at: Launch of BlockIQ Press Release.

BlockIQ works by detecting users running ad blockers, including industry leader AdBlock Plus, and offers publishers and advertisers various options to:

Display a welcome message that explains the value of the website and the damage to the website and community inflicted by ad blocking.
Protect the publisher’s content behind the BlockIQ Passwall™ system that refuses to serve content until its site is white labeled (visitors configure Ad Block to allow ads from that website).
Lastly, the patented BlockIQ BlockBypass™ system can defeat ad blocking to serve ads to the visitor. (blockiq.com/technology/)
BlockIQ is patented, and is the most robust program on the market today. It represents a leap forward technologically, wholly superior to anything in the prior generation. On December 9, 2015, Direct Marketing News wrote: “A company called BlockIQ, set up by the display engine AdSupply, is confronting the ad blocker problem issue with diplomacy. It lets a publisher issue messages to sell blockers on the need for ad revenue before cutting them off from access to the website altogether.” (Link to Direct Marketing News Article)

The combined company will benefit from BlockIQ’s sector leadership and first mover advantage in a nascent industry. While BlockIQ currently owns the “ad blocker bypass” category, related companies have recently received increasing investment interest or have been acquired at significant valuations.
