Re WB, my discussion with Gérard I had few days ago about this, he was really careful on what he said, because WB are apprently looking to change the way they're dealing with the world.
The trial is expected to start this month (which Village Roadshow also joined apparently.. Hence the no news regarding them), will be during few weeks and be done in November, a 3 phases trial run by a professional team.
From there (hopefully it will be successful) we will probably only have a news like the trial is completed as they've to wait for WB to make the first move to announce it all.
They're also talking about "sports" in the above article.
Regarding other stuff:
Gerard: "I know everyone is focused on WB, but we've bigger things coming very soon"
I think he was talking about revenu deals to be ticked off before quarterly report due end of this month and he expect that few of these Ann's will blow our socks off and get the SP back on track.
He his also frustrated, as all of us, by the delays and selling from Fin & Myrr.
But they are apparently done for the moment... They needed to rebalance assets & pay debts/toys
Also, if the trial with WB is successful, we will replicate that to other big which are launching their platform too!
Well also some new POCs to come soon.
So the Search and Anti Piracy are our main focus at the moment, you get the reason.. If we can be generating good revenues from that, and everything is stable & organic, let's explore the advertising one. But imo it's a much more competitive beef that we can keep for later..
I can almost see the blue sky out of the blizzard.
Still the SP stinks. Well all in all with these tens of millions shares sold, there is some buyers which are not mums & dads (brokers)
Don't know if anyone noticed, another 5m stack has been traded through ChiX a week ago at 6.9.
Cheers boys & girls, might the pain last no more and will all have an happy Christmas!
