MiMedia Provides Update on Rollout with Schok Smartphones in the US

NEW YORK, Sept. 26, 2024 /CNW/ – MiMedia Holdings Ltd. MIM MIMDF KH (“MiMedia“, “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on its rollout in the US with partner and smartphone maker Schok LLC (“Schok”).

MiMedia CEO, Chris Giordano, commented, “While early in the integrated smartphone deployment with our partner Schok, we are pleased to report that MiMedia is already seeing USD $12+ CPM rates for mobile advertising in our numbers. Maintaining this level of mobile advertising CPMs and delivering on the contracted number of integrated devices of 5M over two years, we believe can result in a USD $125M+ gross revenue opportunity from this partnership alone.” (Note: CPMs represent the cost per thousand mobile ad impressions delivered, a metric that advertisers use to pay networks that publish or show their ads).

Mr. Giordano continued, “We are excited about this data, as it is in-line with our expectations for the US mobile advertising market. However, we are encouraged to see these results so early in our rollout with Schok. We believe this data speaks to the strength of mobile advertising in the US market and MiMedia’s unique capability to capture that market within our consumer cloud platform. We expect CPMs in the US to climb even further for the Company, as we project Schok device volume to pick up in Q4 and head into a strong 2025.
