The acquisition of IMW group in the third quarter of 2007 marks an important entry into search engine marketing which complements and expands TradeDoubler's existing performance-based product portfolio of affiliate marketing, online advertising campaigns, pay-per-call and an online tracking and ad-serving technology. The combined offering promises synergies for all the clients now within the TradeDoubler group.
Product expansion and further internationalisation are key components in TradeDoubler's growth strategy. The acquisition addresses both these areas by rolling out The Search Works as a separate product offering and The Technology Works in conjunction with our TD Toolbox product throughout Europe.
TradeDoubler expects significant incremental revenue opportunities from combining its pan-European organisation with The Search Works offering as well as incorporating the TD Toolbox and The Technology Works into an integrated technology unit.
The new business units are part of TradeDoubler's accounts from August 2007. For reporting purposes, The Search Works is mentioned as "The Search Works" and The Technology Works is included in "Other revenues". Transaction revenues are reported consistent with earlier reports.
As online advertising spend continues to rise across Europe, figures released by the IAB this month show that online advertising's market share has hit a new milestone in the UK, now representing 15% of total advertising expenditure. The effects of the recent decline during the third quarter in the financial markets, the property market slowdown and the accompanying credit crunch impacts consumer behaviour. As a result the short term effect, on TradeDoubler's UK affiliate business is a slowdown in growth from its historical growth levels.
Whilst channel share varies considerably across Europe, it is estimated that by 2012 the online advertising market will have increased so significantly that it will account for 18% of total European advertising spend and will be worth over €16 billion (Forrester Research).
Online advertising has buoyed the overall advertising market across many European markets where expenditure on other channels such as TV is either declining or stagnant. As advertisers demand more transparency and greater ROI from their advertising spend, the internet provides the visibility and opportunities that they require and the accountability of the model has enticed greater numbers of advertisers to allocate larger budgets towards the internet.
Ecommerce, has escalated as consumers have become more confident online shoppers and respond better to more engaging rich media and video ad formats and improved relevancy in the advertising that is served to them. European online buyers are predicted to spend more than €263 billion online by 2011 (Forrester Research) as more people shop online and as existing online shoppers increase the amount they spend on the internet. The UK, Germany and France are expected to continue to account for over two thirds of total European ecommerce with the travel, finance, electronics, apparel, entertainment attracting the majority of the spend.
Paid search – the process whereby advertisers bid on specific keywords to appear in pay-perclick search listings and pay only when an internet user clicks through to their website – is the biggest driver of online advertising growth and represents about half of total online advertising across Europe. Search is hugely appealing to advertisers as it provides them with the opportunity to put an advertising message in front of an internet user at the exact moment that they are searching for the advertiser's product or service. It is hugely cost effective and the majority of online purchases originate from search engine listings. There is also evidence to support the branding benefits of search and importantly the detrimental effect that a lack of presence in search results can have on a brand. As European ecommerce and broadband adoption increase, Search spending across Europe is predicted to escalate by 80% over the next 5 years to reach €8 billion in 2012 (Forrester Research).
The appeal of performance-based marketing will continue and with its acquisition of The Search Works and The Technology Works, TradeDoubler has expanded its product offering to encompass a broad range of performance-based online marketing disciplines including search, affiliate marketing, online campaigns, an ad network, pay-per-call advertising and a sophisticated tracking and ad-serving technology.
Notable highlights at TradeDoubler over the third quarter include the signing of a new affiliate programme deal with Arcadia, a new premier network status agreement with BT, an extension to the agreement with Ebookers and a pan-European deal with Saxo Bank. TradeDoubler has also seen an upsurge in the number of clients using the td Push (campaign network) and td Reach (ad network) products including automotive companies such as Seat, Honda and BMW. Overall, churn of active clients remains low. TradeDoubler's UK operation has however lost the major part of the business, from one significant client.
Within the td pull area a number of improvements have been introduced in order to increase efficiency across the interfaces.
For advertisers, an added function to track particular events relating to the advertiser's web site efficiency and how well that web site converts users to sales. This will allow advertisers to improve their overall conversion rate, to the benefit of all parties in the network. Further, for advertisers, we
have added more visibility on publishers when they apply for programs, to ensure that our advertisers are able to make instant informed decisions about which publishers to bring onboard.
Publishers will enjoy an increased transparency on payments and publishers can now track each generated order from sale to approval and payment. In addition significant redesigns on the interface where the publishers pick up advertiser links ensure that they can easily decide on which links to work with. The improved function on advertiser's tracking capabilities will also increase network efficiency. Overall, these changes have meant improved usability for publishers and less support relating to payments, for TradeDoubler.
TD Talk product focus have been to get "click to call" functioning in the live environment. Click to call allows the user to insert his telephone number in a pre defined window and then asks the advertiser to call it, through a push of a button, either immediately or at a given time. This will increase the possibility of a sale taking place.
In the third quarter the development in the td toolbox area was focused on capabilities that would allow publisher with a membership database to profit from active membership. An example of such a publisher would be any one that works with cash back or points for members on commerce generated through their platform.
TradeDoubler's group revenues increased significantly during the third quarter 2007 due to the inclusion of the Search Works and Technology Works and amounted to 757,4 (426,9) MSEK, an increase of 77,4 percent, compared to the third quarter of the preceding year. Transaction revenues, corresponding to the traditional TradeDoubler operations accounted for 490,0 (398,7) MSEK of total revenues up 22,9 percent, The Search Works revenues accounted for 230,9 (0,0) MSEK.

The gross margin during the third quarter was 21,9 (28,0) percent for the group and the decrease is a result of the inclusion of The Search Works and The Technology works in the group accounts. The transaction margin during the third quarter 2007 was 22,9 (22,9) percent. The strong margin again is a factor of a focus on higher margin customers and a positive shift in product mix.
The continued recruitment of advertisers is strong. The number of active advertisers increased from the previous quarter by 135 to a total of 1 539 (1 177) at September 30. The majority of the added advertisers in the quarter are additions from The Search Works and The Technology works.

The change in working capital for the third quarter was -73,7 (12,7) MSEK with the decrease in cash flow being an effect of changes in the large amounts of payables and receivables in The Search and The Technology Works.

TradeDoubler's operations involve the development of advanced software and services thereto associated. The business is expanding rapidly and internationally. In addition to customer and supplier relations, risks include, but are not limited to: the level of client acceptance of existing, new and upgraded products and services, the growth of overall market demand for the Company's products, the Company's relationship with third party suppliers and its ability to accurately forecast and manage the volume of sales in various currencies.

The parent company's sales during the third quarter increased by 11,7 percent to 66,0 (59,1) MSEK. The sales consist primarily of license fees from subsidiaries. For the period the corresponding increase was 29,5 percent to 218,8 (168,9) MSEK.

As a result of the acquisition and the resulting change in the financial structure of the group, the board of directors has after the end of the period decided to hedge the short term financing of the recent acquisition against an appreciation of the British Pound against the Swedish Krona.
As a result of the acquisition and the release of tax reserves pertaining to employee options, the taxpayable for the UK operations will be reduced. A number of subsidiaries have also shifted into tax paying positions during the year resulting in the effective use of carry forward tax reserves for those territories. These reserves have been duly accounted for in the groups accounts. The overall result is a sustainable reduction of the tax payable for the group.
No significant transactions have taken place in the period. Related parties with which the Group has transactions are described in the annual report for 2006, note 25.
No significant events have occurred after the closing date.

To the Board of Directors of TradeDoubler AB (publ)
Corp. Id 556575-7423
We have reviewed TradeDoubler ABs interim report for the period January 1, 2007 – September 30, 2007. The Board of Directors and the President Managing Director are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements SÖG 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditors of the Entity", issued by FAR. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily to persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing in Sweden RS and other generally accepted auditing practices in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed based on a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed on the basis of an audit.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not, in all material respects, prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act.
