While Otello’s share price has re-rated somewhat following the announced agreement to sell AdColony to Digital Turbine, in our view the market has yet to fully reflect the underlying value of Otello’s holdings or the implications of the proceeds to be raised from the sale. Following the AdColony trading update, we have raised our estimates and lifted our target price to NOK48 (40) to reflect the bid. We reiterate our BUY.
Bemobi finally listed, albeit with a valuation significantly below our assessment. Regardless, we continue to see significant upside potential to Bemobi’s valuation, as well as solid value uplift inherent in AdColony and Vewd. With Bemobi now listed on the B3, we see the Otello case as de-risked, and still likely to re-rate. We reiterate our BUY with a lowered NOK40 (43) target price.
We have tweaked our estimates ahead of Otello’s Q4 report. We continue to expect 30% YOY growth for AdColony and that abating Covid-19 headwinds in emerging markets will lift revenues and earnings for Bemobi. With AdColony back in the black with above-market growth, and Bemobi seemingly marching ahead with a separate listing in Brazil, we find the unique risk/reward asymmetry of Otello stock to be as compelling as ever. We reiterate our BUY, albeit cutting our target price to NOK43 (44) due to N...
We view today’s trading update as another datapoint demonstrating the underlying momentum of Otello’s business, as well as the inherent value of its financial trajectories. Therefore, we have raised our top-line and EBITDA estimates significantly, as well as our target price to NOK44 (33). We reiterate our BUY.
Solid growth in the Q3 top line and operating leverage despite Covid-19 headwinds, combined with significant operational improvements, suggest to us Otello is experiencing one of the sector’s most impressive revivals. We have raised our estimates significantly, and our target price to NOK33 (30); we reiterate our BUY.
Following Otello’s Q3 trading update and filing of preliminary documents ahead of listing Bemobi in Brazil, we have made only limited estimate revisions, but see further data points that suggest our investment case is starting to materialise. We also believe the early results release due next week is likely to provide further proof, hence we have raised our target price to NOK30 (26) and reiterate our BUY.

While Covid-19 created a challenging macro environment in Q2, we continue to see an underlying trend very much in support of our investment thesis for AdColony and Bemobi during Q2. As such, we see the near-term noise as a source of opportunity and reiterate our BUY and NOK26 target price.

While governance changes have been proposed, we expect Otello’s resurgence to continue unabated and its share price to re-rate significantly near-term. We see this as a particularly attractive buying opportunity, and reiterate our BUY. However, we have trimmed our target price to NOK26 (29) on FX.
