marketing efforts.</p>\n<p>IAS serves 35% of the top 150 U.S. advertisers and the firm had 2,062 total customers as of March 31, 2021.</p>\n<p>Sales and Marketing expenses as a percentage of total

result.</p>\n<p>The dollar-based net revenue retention rate metric measures how much additional revenue is generated over time from each cohort of customers, so that a figure over 100% means that the company is generating more revenue from the same customer cohort over time, indicating good product/market fit and efficient sales and marketing efforts.</p>\n<p>Market & Competition</p>\n<p>According to a 2021 marketresearch reportby Fortune Business Insights, the global media monitoring tools market was an estimated $2.74 billion in 2020 and is forecast to reach $7.25 billion in 2028.</p>\n<p>This represents a forecast CAGR of 13.2% from 2021 to 2028.</p>\n<p>The main drivers for this expected growth are a continued transition of company advertising budget toward digital channels, increasing demand for monitoring and verification capabilities.</p>\n<p>Also, the COVID-19 pandemic increased demand for online advertising as businesses with a significant offline presence sought to diversify their revenue streams during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>Major competitive or other industry participants include:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>DoubleVerify</li>\n <li>Oracle</li>\n <li>HUMAN</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Financial Performance</b></p>\n<p>Integral Ad’s recent financial results can be summarized as follows:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Growing topline revenue at an accelerating

$413 million in total liabilities.</p>\n<p>Free cash flow during the twelve months ended March 31, 2021, was $29.1 million.</p>\n<p><b>IPO Details</b></p>\n<p>Integral Ad intends to raise $240 million in gross proceeds from an IPO of its common stock, offering 15 million shares at a proposed midpoint price of $16.00 per share.</p>\n<p>No existing shareholders have indicated an interest to purchase shares at the IPO price.</p>\n<p>Assuming a successful IPO, the company’s enterprise value at IPO would approximate $2.5 billion, excluding the effects of underwriter over-allotment options.</p>\n<p>Excluding effects of underwriter options and private placement shares or restricted stock, if any, the float to outstanding shares ratio will be approximately 10.07%. A figure under 10% is generally considered a ‘low float’ stock which can be subject to significant price volatility.</p>\n<p>Management says it will use the net proceeds from the IPO as follows:</p>\n<blockquote>\n The principal purposes of this offering are to increase our capitalization and financial flexibility, create a public market for our common stock and enable access to the public equity markets for us and our shareholders. We expect to use approximately $217.8 million of the net proceeds of this offering (or $251.3 million of the net proceeds of this offering if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full) to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under our Term Loan Facility.

Seelaus & Co. and Siebert Williams Shank.</p>\n<p><b>Valuation Metrics</b></p>\n<p>Below is a table of relevant capitalization and valuation figures for the company:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5e1817071801a8e6a46279c6b00890fd\" tg-width=\"612\" tg-height=\"709\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>As a reference, a potential public comparable to Integral Ad would be DoubleVerify (DV); below is a comparison of their primary valuation metrics:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0e9e0f0defd08429eb932751e2be636a\" tg-width=\"610\" tg-height=\"415\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Commentary</p>\n<p>Integral Ad is seeking U.S. capital market investment to pay down debt.</p>\n<p>The firm’s financials show accelerating topline revenue growth, a swing to positive operating profit and continued substantial cash flow from operations.</p>\n<p>Free cash flow for the twelve months ended March 31, 2021, was a respectable $29.1 million.</p>\n<p>Sales and Marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenue have dropped as revenue has increased; its Sales and Marketing efficiency rate doubled in the most recent reporting period.</p>\n<p>The market opportunity for monitoring technologies is expected to grow markedly in the coming years, so the firm has positive industry dynamics in its favor.</p>\n<p>Morgan Stanley is the lead left underwriter and IPOs led by the firm over the last 12-month period have generated an average return of 27.2% since their IPO. This is a mid-tier performance for all major underwriters during the period.</p>\n<p>The primary risk to the company’s outlook is the general economics outlook as prospective customers may delay purchases of new capabilities during down economic periods.</p>\n<p>As for valuation, compared to competitor DoubleVerify which is growing revenue faster, the IPO is more cheaply valued on a revenue multiple basis, but appears reasonably valued.</p>\n<p>IAS looks to be accelerating its growth performance while achieving operating breakeven and the IPO is fairly priced, so is worth a close look.</p>\n<p>Expected IPO Pricing Date: June 29, 2021</p>\n<p></p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;
