Dass auf dem Yahoo-Board keine direkten Quellenzugriffe eroflgen dürfen, was zwar nicht nachooziehbar ist, gilt für alle Poster. Warum der Webmaster aber keine Kopien einer Liste von 5 Institutionals zulässt, kann nur damit zusammenhängen, dass er das nicht will. Und ich kann mir vorstellen, warum er das nicht will - Ihr sicher auch.

Selbst wenn man ein Liste von gleichen Yahoo-Aktienboard postet, steht das zunächst für kurze Zeit da - wird aber in diesem Fall nachräglich gelöscht. Warum? siehe oben


Warum also die schräge Darstellungsnummer in meinem letzten Posting? Wenn man das so postet, fuktioniert die Voreinstellung des Filters von Yahoo nicht mehr, der eine der wichtigsten Informationen zu Local Corp verhindern will: dass sich die Zahl der Institutionals von niedrigen 6% vor einem Jahr ausgehend auf fast 27% mehr als verviefacht hat.

- in Frankfurt kommt man momentan für 1,10 an Material.

Fred Thiel - Chairman & CEO: "We’ve made significant operational progress."

The new CEO Thiel corrected the qualitiy-approach of the idiot Sawtell:

"Traffic quality continues to be a top priority for us to ensure that we’re providing the best outcome for our advertisers,” said Local Corporation chairman and CEO, Fred Thiel. “Over the past several months, we have been focused on actively managing and optimizing our traffic sources and recently released our own advanced traffic quality solution, nTegrity™. While getting the solution in market took longer than anticipated, nTegrity ensures that we are delivering a higher quality audience to our advertisers, which we believe will increase their conversion rates and result in increased traffic.”

sprich könnte eine W Formation werden.

Meine Einschätzung:
Wer es in mehr als 10 Jahren nicht geschafft hat, der kann es nicht.

Zwischen 2010 und 2012 war ich hier auch mal investiert wegen der Einschätzung, der Anstieg von 2009 bis Mitte 2010 sei nur kurz unterbrochen wegen Short Selling und einem aufgebauschten Schein-Skandal etc.pp..
Dieser Anstieg 2009-2010 war nach meiner heutigen Meinung schlicht Glückssache und eine Mischung aus einem günstigen Lizenz-Deal mit Yahoo und allgemeiner Börsenerholung nach der Finanzkrise.
Beim Ausstieg 2012 nach mehreren enttäuschenden oder unverständlichen Entwicklungen war ich dann aber froh, dass ich vorher auch mal Gewinne realisiert hatte, da diese die Verluste beim Ausstieg in etwa ausglichen.

Es gibt sicherlich Branchen, in denen es sehr lange dauern kann bis zum Durchbruch, vielleicht sogar noch weit mehr als 10 Jahre. Aber das Internet ist schneller. Ich habe zwar die jüngsten Entwicklungen bei Local nicht mehr im Detail verfolgt, aber der Kurseinbruch nach den letzten Zahlen fügt sich ja perfekt in das trostlose Gesamtbild ein.

Während ich beim endgültigen Ausstieg noch dachte: na beobachten wir mal, vielleicht kommt ja doch noch was, würde ich heute nicht mehr im Traum daran denken, hier nochmal einzusteigen. Ich kann mich natürlich auch irren, aber ich halte es für sehr unwahrscheinlich, dass das hier noch was wird.

Was Local IMO fehlt sind die _wirklich_ guten Leute und die _wirklch_ funktionierende Geschäftsidee.

schlauer? Ich meine H. C. Wainwright & Co. - aber Eure Antwort überlasse ich Euch selbst. Aber vielleicht ist Japeturs noch schlauer und braucht niedrige Kurse in Deutschland, weil ...... (auch diese Überlegungen überlasse ich Euch).

H.C. Wainwright Starts Local Corp at Buy and a price target of $4.00 on September 4, 2014 7:23 AM EDT

September 4, 2014 7:23 AM EDT

H.C. Wainwright Starts Local Corp at Buy

H.C. Wainwright initiated coverage on Local Corp with a Buy rating and a price target of $4.00.
Analyst Amit Dayal said, "LOCM is in the early stages of implementing a new business strategy that over time should make the business less dependent on its traditional partnership-driven, search monetization model. Some of the big changes that have taken place over the last few quarters include a new CEO and new strategic initiatives that should boost organic traffic and revenues and allow for stronger margins. Under the new CEO there has been a renewed emphasis on R&D, which we believe should allow the company to introduce new products and services that leverage the ‘local search’ and ‘local commerce’ theme. Our price target of $4.00 translates to an EV/Rev multiple of ~0.8x (in relation to our 2015 revenue expectations for LOCM), which we believe is conservative relative to its peers and accommodates for the early stages of various new strategic initiatives underway at the company."


H. C. Wainwright & Co., LLC is an investment bank dedicated to providing corporate finance, strategic advisory and related services to public and private growth companies across multiple sectors and regions.

The H. C. Wainwright team has been the leader in the PIPE (private investment in public equity) and RD (registered direct offering) transaction markets.

According to Sagient Research Systems, the team has been ranked the #1 Placement Agent in terms of the aggregate number of PIPE and RD transactions cumulatively since 1998.

H. C. Wainwright was established in 1868 and is headquartered in New York City.

außerdem besonders stört, dass mit einer Aneinanderreihung von Allgemeinplätzen nur leere Luft geblasen wird - das war bei ihm früher schon einmal besser.

Die vielen schlauen Leute diverser Analystenhäuser, die in den letzten 10 Jahren Jahren immer mal wieder BUY-Ratings vergeben haben, die sind bis zum heutigen Tag ganz und gar nicht schlau gewesen.

Früher hießen sie Mr. Soundso, heute von mir aus H. C. Wainwright, und morgen?

Japetus leider nicht auf.

schon im sechsten Jahr hintereinander ein positives Ebibtda, was eigentlich anzeigt, dass das Geschäftmodell funitoiert bzw. das Mangement zu Umstellungen fähig ist:

Und selbst die kurzfristigen Schwankungen habe es nicht geschafft, auch nur quartalsweise in den letzten sieben Quartalen negative Ebitda's zu produzieren (im lzitierten Text steht zwar sechs Quartale, aber inzwischen sind wir inach dem siebten Quartal mit positiven Ebitdas's).

aber davon kommt in den Allgemeinplätzen von Japetus auch nicht ein Sterbenswörtchn vor:

Third Quarter 2014 Financial Highlights - Okay, but a strong decrease of revenues as a result of elimination of revenues with low quality

• Total revenue of $18.1 million with 31 percent O&O revenue growth year-over-year
• Net loss of $1.3 million
• Adjusted EBITDA* of $407,000, positive for the seventh consecutive quarter
• Cash from operating activities of $3.0 million and free cash flow** of $2.2 million
• $4.5 million of debt repayment
• $201 revenue per thousand visitors (RKVs), compared to $180 RKV in the third quarter of 2013
• Cash balance of $4.3 million at Sept. 30, 2014

And after the publishing of the Overview:

Additional positive since early September:
• Local Content and Search Engine Marketing Expansion: This quarter, the company continues to ingest new category data from additional sources, while adding content partnerships for its O&O properties. The company is also initiating additional keyword campaigns, vertical categories and rich content enhancements. Together, management believes these will increase traffic.

Additional positive since early September:
• Successful Programmatic Launch: The company entered the programmatic media marketplace to leverage its robust local audience data and connect advertisers with real people in real time, on the right platform. The company’s valuable, high-intent, first-party consumer data, includes behavioral, geo and device attributes from its 20 million monthly unique visitors across its O&O properties. The company anticipates this will enable additional scale over time, as any number of publishers can access multiple advertisers and multiple, targeted ads based on specific interests.

Additional positive since early September:
• Mobile Search Advances: The company is implementing its nQuery solution with a top five global carrier. nQuery is already deployed with a major U.S. mobile carrier, 18 international and prepaid MVNOs and 10,000 U.S. hotels. Providing a custom, hosted search solution, nQuery now powers millions of search queries globally. The company expects to further grow nQuery via partnerships with entities that specialize in monetizing subscriber traffic for mobile operators and Wi-Fi networks

Ich möchte mal auf die positive Funktion von Shortsellern bei fallenden bis einbrechenden Kursen hinweisen. Sie federn den Fall ab, weil sie fallende Aktien kaufen, um ihre Gewinne zu realisieren.  Bei zig-Millionen ausverkaufter Aktien ist das ein beträchtlicher Puffer. Wo wären wir bloß ohne die Shortseller ? Tiefer!

Feuewehrleute sind?

Dass Haus wäe noch stärker abgebrannt. Oder?

Wow: As part of the settlement agreement, we received a one-time patent license fee payment of $700,000 related to prior infringement of our patent.

"Income from settlement and patent licensing
During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, we reached a settlement agreement in the patent infringement action against Fry’s Electronics, Inc. As part of the settlement agreement, we received a one-time patent license fee payment of $700,000 related to prior infringement of our patent."



“During the third quarter, we achieved a 31 percent increase in our Owned & Operated (O&O) revenue, which partially offset lower Network revenue due to a proactive reduction in traffic with the goal of protecting our advertisers from fraudulent traffic. Traffic quality continues to be a top priority for us to ensure that we’re providing the best outcome for our advertisers,” said Local Corporation chairman and CEO, Fred Thiel. “Over the past several months, we have been focused on actively managing and optimizing our traffic sources and recently released our own advanced traffic quality solution, nTegrity™. While getting the solution in market took longer than anticipated, nTegrity ensures that we are delivering a higher quality audience to our advertisers, which we believe will increase their conversion rates and result in increased traffic.”

Wenn die Fundamentals so gut sind wie bei Local Corp, dass sie meines Erachtens durchaus auch das 5- bis 10-fache des momentane Kurses rechtfetrigen, sollge man den Shortsellern die von ihnen angeboten Aktien abkaufen. Im Ausgangsposting  habe sich ja dargelegt, dass das meine Strategie ist - - allerdings ist die nicht für nervöse Raus-Rein-Zocker geeignet, was ich immer wieder betont habe.

The Krillion platform aggregates national local shopping content and offers it through a range of APIs tailored for both online and mobile channels and devices. Retailers and brand marketers included in the Krillion data index can reach more local consumers and drive shopper engagement and sales, both online and in-store.

Local Corporation was granted patent number 8,032,427 in October 2011, which covers a system for providing localized shopping information. Less



Local acquired local-search startup Krillion in 2011 for its local-shopping data engine. Local invested heavily in Krillion's technology development, leveraging Local's expertise in working with large data sets to scale Krillion's API resources. Local reaches 10% of U.S. Internet users through its sites and syndication network and serves more than 3 billion ads a day. These huge traffic numbers are supported by sophisticated back-end technology. Local made it easier to get data into Krillion programmatically, and its product data set grew exponentially.

Krillion by Local now powers local-shopping experiences for apps, brands and retailers. Krillion provides apps with real-time access to data on products, pricing and in-store availability at popular retailers, including Best Buy, Sears, Target and Wal-Mart.

"Geofencing" technology allows brands and retailers to message consumers with offers that incorporate real-time product data when they come within a certain distance of a store. "Ambient data" feeds allow retailers to place store hours and location information next to product-related YouTube videos.

"Krillion's dynamic data feeds enable advertising and app data to be delivered in highly personalized ways," says Local CEO Fred Thiel. "Marketers can reach targeted consumers based on where they happen to be, where they are going and what products they have been researching."

Investing in APIs is strategically important for Local. The Krillion API allows them to work with large corporations willing to subscribe to expensive data feeds. Local previously focused more on selling advertising packages to small and medium-sized business. Also, more than half of Local's revenue comes from partnerships with Yahoo and Google, so Local is now able to diversify its revenue and reduce dependence on those two tech giants.

Local Corp. Uses Krillion API to Grow in New Markets

Friday, July 18, 2014 (ProgrammableWeb)

Expertise in working with APIs and big data is paying off for Local Corp. Local built a $100 million business by aggregating huge amounts of data and then serving ads to consumers searching for local business and product listings. Local is now using APIs to extend its local-search business into fast-growing markets such as mobile shopping apps.

"Krillion by Local" offers powerful API access to real-time data about 120,000 retail stores, 4,300 shopping categories and 3 million product SKUs.

Naked shortseller can't go in without a big jump

With mobile’s ever-increasing influence on the shopping experience, there are three vital questions consumers care about when they’re searching for products from their mobile devices:

1. Is it carried near me? Consumers want to know if nearby retail locations sell the product they're interested in.

2. Is it available in store? Consumers want to know if the product they want to buy today is available in a nearby store.

3. How much does it cost? Consumers want pricing information on products.

Quelle: Media-Post

We believe the consumer shift to mobile devices presents a tremendous opportunity for us. Today, consumers are using their mobile devices more than ever before to search for local products and services.

We believe that Local can become the technology engine which powers third party apps and sites that seek to provide on-the-go mobile consumers with the local business, product, and service information they want, when they need it, along their path from discovery to decision. If this happens, we believe we will be in a better position to control our financial future by having direct relationships with retailers and brands and as a result we expect to be able to reduce our reliance on third party advertisers.

In addition, we believe that any wide adoption of the Local technology platform would result in access to an immense amount of data about retailers, manufacturers, and consumers alike. We believe this could further evolve Local’s platform into a location-based data play, complete with highly valuable consumer behavior trends, price history by category and other valuable information. We believe we are in the early stages of this evolution in consumer search and we believe we are well positioned to take advantage of it.

Immerhin haben sie bei Local den Glauben noch nicht verloren ...

6x "We belive" in 3 kleinen Absätzen, das hab ich noch bei keinem Unternehmen gesehen. "We know" wäre besser ... mit dem "we belive" ist es in den letzten Jahren ja regelmäßig in die Hose gegangen, wie zuletzt mit der Umsatzschätzung für 2014 die jetzt nach dem letzten Bericht zu urteilen, massiv verfehlt werden wird.

Es ist auch spannend zu sehen, wie hier in dieser Diskussion jeder der es nur wagt etwas an Local kritisch zu sehen, sofort persönlich angemacht wird.
