AT&T Announces Xandr
Publication date: 18 Oct 2018 Author: Jack Kent Director, Media and Advertising AT&T announces Xandr Brought to you by Informa Tech AT&T announces Xandr 1 AT&T has unveiled its advertising and analytics business Xandr. Named after AT&T founder Alexander Graham Bell, Xandr will house all of the telco giant’s data-led offerings, including addressable advertising service AT&T AdWorks, analytics business ATT.net and ad-tech unit AppNexus. Xandr is rebrand of AT&T’s AdCo unit, which was a temporary business until AT&T’s advertising plan had solidified. Revenue for the advertising business (AdCo) grew 16% year-on-year to $1.8 billion in Q2 2018. The announcement follows in the aftermath of its approved Warner Media acquisition. Our analysis AT&T is settling into a strong position in the ad market as it seeks to challenge the Google-Facebook duopoly for market share. In the aftermath of its landmark acquisition of Warner Media, the group now has three key components in place; access and distribution through AT&T, premium content through Warner Media created by the likes of HBO and CNN and ad monetization through AppNexus. On the back of AppNexus acquisition, AT&T has now decided it is an appropriate time to rebrand its AdCo advertising company, and build its brand in the ad ecosystem. The business aims to provide targeted advertisements across multiple platforms and bolster average ad prices by leveraging the enlarged group’s enhanced customer data. Where Xandr differs is in its apparent rejection of the walled garden mentality common amongst its new rivals. -
