TRMR Tremor Video, Inc. (delisted)

Tremor Video, Inc. (NYSE: TRMR), a leading provider of technology-driven video advertising solutions, announced today it will no longer service in-banner video advertising and will focus solely on driving consumer brand engagement through high-quality, in-stream video ad content.

"Tremor believes strongly that in-stream creative within premium content environments delivers what brands are looking for most: engagement, brand lift, optimization and viewability," said Bill Day, CEO, Tremor Video, Inc. "If brands are serious about driving engagement, in-banner video advertising is not getting the job done. This is best for our brand partners and our own continued growth."

A recent Millward Brown Digital study of online ads clearly indicates in-stream video ads outperform those not in-stream and online video overall. The data showed in-stream ads generating higher percentages of impact in Brand Awareness, Message Association and Favorability than those other formats.

This move, coupled with the company's longstanding tradition of securing exclusive publisher agreements with some of the strongest media brands, underscores what Tremor Video sees in its data every day -- premium environments and premium advertising experiences matter a great deal in garnering engagement, additional time spent with ads and brand lift.

"I applaud this move by Tremor Video. The in-stream offerings they are now focused on provide the engagement, transparency and quality content environment that brands and agencies want," said Sarah Baehr, SVP Digital Director, Carat.

Tremor Video is the leader in offering cost-per-engagement performance-based pricing for in-stream video at scale for interactive video ads online and on mobile devices.
