Leading News Organization ITN Extends Advertising Deal with blinkx Based on Proven Campaign Success




blinkx Selected to Power Advertising across ITN Website and Syndication Partner Sites




SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF. - July 2, 2008 - blinkx, the world's largest and most advanced video search engine, today announced that it has won an extension contract that will augment the scope of its advertising partnership with ITN, one of the world's leading news and multimedia content companies. Under the terms of the new agreement, ITN will use AdHoc, blinkx's patented contextual advertising platform for online TV and video, to serve advertisements on the ITN website and its syndication partner sites, including Bebo.




Through AdHoc, ITN has already been effectively monetizing its premium news content on the blinkx.com network for over six months. During this time, ITN achieved a significantly better return, greater search volume, and higher monetization through blinkx than through other syndication partners.




AdHoc uses blinkx's patented speech-to-text transcription and visual analysis technology to understand video content more thoroughly and effectively than any other service today, and can therefore dynamically place the most pertinent advertising against it. The AdHoc platform offers media companies and advertisers a unique value proposition -- video advertising which combines the emotive power of TV promotion, with the relevance and utility of contextual search advertising.




The confluence of ITN's premium TV content, blinkx's extensive syndication network, and AdHoc's uniquely powerful targeting capabilities was a formula for success. By extending its partnership with blinkx, ITN aims to achieve similar returns by leveraging the AdHoc platform to deliver contextually relevant video advertising on its own website and across its distribution partner sites.




'We're thrilled to be broadening our relationship with ITN,' said Suranga Chandratillake, founder and CEO of blinkx. 'News content is one of the most popular categories of online video and there's clearly a tremendous opportunity for monetization. The success of our partnership with ITN is evidence that the blinkx AdHoc platform is a uniquely powerful solution for online video advertising today.'




'We've been delighted with the results of our partnership with blinkx and are looking forward to implementing the AdHoc technology on our site,' said Nicholas Wheeler, managing director, ITN On. 'blinkx AdHoc has proven that it can achieve significant monetization of our content, effective marketing for advertisers and, most importantly, a useful, non-disruptive experience for our audience.'




As a pioneer in video search technology, blinkx has built a reputation as the most effective way to search new forms of online content such as video. With more than 350 partners and 26 million hours of indexed video and audio content, including favorite TV moments, news clips, short documentaries, music videos, video blogs and more, blinkx uses advanced speech recognition technology to deliver results that are more accurate and reliable than standard metadata-based keyword searches.

Let's wait and see.

ARE WE READY FOR A CHANGE OF DIRECTION @ 25.625p?
volume says so as the bounce, could be the large trade are overhang being cleared

moving now to 26.50p +1.25p

a 100K buy @ 26.44p paying premium it was 26p offer done the job

it's somewhat unfair to show the 5-year chart at this juncture though it is salutary
but even leaving that aside, sp was 40 in mid may against 26.25 (again) now
tech shares in general are also somewhat out of favour

blinkx has warned that its expects to book an operating loss of the first half of the year as early second quarter trading has been below forecasts.

The group says management has taken decisive steps to manage its cost structure to reflect the changing revenue and profitability profile of its product mix, and expects a return to profitability, as its core products continue to ramp and offset declines in non-core products.

An update says: "As outlined during its FY2015 full-year results, H12016 has been a period of integration and investment for blinkx. In summary, the company began to rationalise its operations and product portfolio and accelerated investments in its ('core') strategic capabilities of Mobile, Video and Programmatic Trading."

The company says it also began to refactor, divest and exit historical product lines that are considered ('non-core') to future growth, including certain Desktop products, services and technologies, which continue to decline.

It adds: "Based on preliminary results, performance for the first quarter of FY2016 was in line with expectations, led by strong growth in core revenues.

"However, early second quarter trading has been below expectations to date and the company now expects an operating loss in H12016.

"Management has taken decisive steps to manage the group's cost structure to reflect the changing revenue and profitability profile of its product mix, and expects a return to profitability, as its core products continue to ramp and offset declines in non-core products."
