Please go ahead.
Speaker 9: Hey, good morning. It's got with the city. I just want to.
Alright. Good morning, you got with the city I just wanted to.
Speaker 9: I'm not really fully understanding. First of all, I want to make sure I heard you, Sarah, the retail media contribution X pack would be lower in 2024 than it is in 2023. And so maybe first, what's prompting the shift to the staff like model was that it was a bit...
Keep kind of speaking into that appointment because I'm not fully understanding first of all I want to make sure I heard you Uhm zero the.
Retail media contribution next part could be lower than 2024, and 2023 and so maybe first what's pumping the the the ship to the south like model with the.
Speaker 9: more from you guys, or more from your client. And then I guess the piece that I'm not totally getting is why.
You guys more from your client and then I guess <unk>.
<unk>.
Oh, we're getting is why why <unk>.
Speaker 7: revenue generated, right? So you should theoretically be growing the, you know, billing next year. Or, and, but, but you're getting a lot of a contribution as you ship this <expletive> model. So can you help just please explain that to the better. Yeah, first of all, the tariff by retail, Nunea will, will continue to grow.
Revenue generated <unk>, you should be growing you'll go into next year.
What are you getting lots of a contribution that'd be shipped success model. So can you help <unk>.
It was a butterfly that.
First of all to clarify retail media.
We'll continue to garage.
Speaker 7: What we're anticipating is that the growth rate will be low, it's certainly lower than we had assumed in our ambition. And we anticipate it will be lower than our 2023 growth rate. As a short term perspective.
What we're anticipating is that the growth rate will be <unk>, certainly lower than we had assumed <unk> ambition.
And we anticipate it will be lower than 20 twenty-three rugs right.
Sure mm mm perspective.
Speaker 5: The biggest shift in the model with our largest scaled retailer.
The biggest shift in the model with a large scales retailer.
Speaker 7: is that we were doing more crinic solo for all brands. And as our
Is that we were doing more pretty solid for all branches.
And add retailers shift.
Speaker 7: and many have already shifted to this model. Some will do their own cells for their largest brands and we will continue to sell for the medium to long tail. In addition to that, we receive seed for everything that goes through our platform, which is all the volume. That's the biggest change.
And many of them already shifted to this model some will do.
<unk> fell to the largest brands and we will continue to sell for for the medium to long tail. In addition to that we receive fees for everything that goes through all platform, which is older volume that's the the biggest change.
Speaker 7: And again, we do anticipate and we do see many opportunities for us to continue to drive scale, not just with this large-scale player, but also with the significant ecosystem we have in the U.S. and in Europe , and of course, as we continue to build our Asia pack as well.
And again, we do anticipate and we do see many opportunities for us to continue to drive scale not just with this large scale player, but also with the significant ecosystem. We have in the U S and in Europe and of course, as we continue to build out Asia packet as well.
Okay. That's helpful.
Speaker 9: Okay, that's helpful. Sorry, I misunderstood. And then with the launch of Commerce Max, maybe...
Misunderstood and then with the launch of Congress, Max maybe just a little bit on early reads Uhm. What are you hearing from it gives you some partners and within that being also.
Speaker 9: Share a little bit on early reads, what you're hearing from agency and partners. And within that being also Omnicon made an acquisition this week, that feels like they're moving more into become media on their own or commerce media as a whole. And Omnicon has been a key partner. So does that change anything with your relationship with Omnicon at all?
Uhm Omnicom maiden acquisition.
Just this week, but feels like they're moving more.
Can you tell media on their own or <unk> for the whole.
<unk> has been a key partner so does that change anything with your relationship with with them to come at all.
Speaker 4: So, so just one thing on the last part of your question, I do want to emphasize that our retail media, our comment media platforms, is self-service, so a huge benefit.
I'm. So sorry, just one thing on the last part of your question I do want to emphasize the retail media all come with medium platform is self service a huge benefit.
Speaker 7: of driving scale and driving to these new economic models is there is a shift to more self-service.
Driving scale and driving to these new economic models is there is a shift to most self service and that will enhance profitability over time, we all <unk>. We do have positive contribution across all businesses. So the expectation is no annual overdrive scale and deliver top lines available. So.
Speaker 7: And that will enhance our profitability over time.
Speaker 7: We do have positive contribution across our businesses. So the expectation is not only will we drive to scale and deliver top line, but we'll also continue to deliver our profitability overall for critty out. So those are other key factors as we look at the platform. In terms of CMAX.
Continue to deliver alright <unk>.
Profitability of grilled for <unk>, the key factors as we look at the at the platform.
And tons of C. Max Uhm.
Speaker 7: We've had terrific traction in terms of the number of retailers, brands and agencies coming into that platform. It's going to take time to see the dollars, so we're starting to see the flow through coming through.

Speaker 7: in Q4. We just launched in September , as you know, and our expectation is that we'll continue to drive in 2024. The conversations are terrific.
In queue for we just launched in September as you know in our expectation if that will continue to drive in 2024 at the conversations are terrific.

The contract so we're saying Oh, sorry, the agreements that were saying with the agencies and brand incredibly encouraging and retailers are absolutely Lind Linden.
Speaker 3: So that one's, again, we're excited about CMAX and the traction. We had a really great launch of that event, it seems like only weeks ago, and so the follow-up is definitely coming, but the momentum is building around that. I think you asked also about Flywheel Omnicom, is that correct?
Seven that one's once again, we're excited about the Max and attraction, we haven't really bright lunches elephant uhm.
It seems like many weeks ago. Instead of follow up is is definitely coming but that momentum is is is building around that I think he lost or sorry.
About.
That's fine we will omnicom is that correct.
Speaker 9: Yeah, just because they've been an important partner here. So is that change the partnership at all, the relationship?

Thanks for taking the question I just wanted to add a little bit more into the four Q outlook I think that'd be organic growth and it's been five to decelerate slightly burst three T level. So can you provide some more color on what you're seeing quarter to date that might be making it a little bit more cautious and how we should think about typing.
Speaker 10: Hey, this is Katie on For Doug. Thanks for taking the question. I just want to dive a little bit more into before to you outlook. I think that the organic growth and is implied to decelerate slightly versus three-two levels. So can you just provide some more color on what you're seeing in quarter to date that might be making you a little bit more cautious and how we should think about sizing, some of these moving pieces like macro, geopolitical conflict and the holiday season so far.
And stomach moving pieces like macro geopolitical complex and holidays.
Our thanks.
Speaker 7: Absolutely. I mean, we saw it soft October , so that's the starting point, especially with trading patterns, media trading. In terms of the holiday season, of course we're expecting a terrific holiday season after the itself teams are all eaten. We're not seeing an early start to holiday season, so that's the caution.
Absolutely I mean, we still have a self dot <unk>. So that's that's a starting point, especially with trading Patton's media trading.
Tens of the holiday season of closer I expected.
Perfect holiday season, I'll see itself teams or <unk>, we're not seeing an already stopped a sales to holiday season. So that's the <unk>.
Speaker 7: And that's, of course, I would say we're similar to.
And that's the question I would stay with similar to <unk>.
Speaker 7: most others in terms of watching and seeing. We're bullish. We know we love to deliver performance for our clients, and we're leaning all in. But that's where our portion is, is knowing that we're not seeing an early holiday season, and frankly, reading the daily news and seeing some of the concerns raised. We're going to be keeping a close eye on the retailers' results as they come out.
Most others in terms of watching and seeing Uhm. We're bullish we now we got to deliver performance for our clients and we're leaving all in but that's where a portion is knowing that we're not seeing a 90 holiday season, then frankly reading the daily news and seeing some of the concerns right.
We're gonna be keeping a close eye on the retailers results as they come out over the next few weeks and that will be a K H, we come a week, we all see an improvement coming into November sorry, good signs, but not not enough for us to to sign off on on a terrific.
Speaker 7: over the next few weeks and that will be a gauge. Week on week we are seeing improvement coming into November .
Speaker 7: So good signs, but not enough for us to sign off on a terrific curve.
Q for especially given.
Speaker 8: Q4 especially given it's a pretty short season with the five or six
Pretty short season with the the survivor six that being said, we feel terrific about the strong Q3 with the lettuce and we're looking forward to continue to deliver a strong Q for as well.
Speaker 8: That being said, we feel terrific about the strong Q3 we delivered and we're looking forward to continue to deliver a strong Q4 as well.
Speaker 10: Okay, thanks. And if I can just do one more, is there anything you can share and have to think about 2024 profitability? Just thinking about the fact that you realize and cost efficiencies in 2023. So how do we think about the pace of investments next year? Thanks.
Okay. Thanks, and if I could just do one more is there anything you can share and how to think about 2024 profitability just thinking about the fact that you rely on cost efficiencies in 2023 that has we think about you know the paint that's been vaccinated next year.
Speaker 8: Yeah, we have a program now in a rigor around operational excellence. So we've been very focused on our operating model or operational excellence.
Yeah, we we have a program now and Ah breaker around operational excellent. So we've been very focused on our operating model or operational excellence on knowing where we <unk>, we should be taking more efficiencies, but also where we need to invest surprise, we're not gonna cave guidance of 2020.
Speaker 8: on knowing where we should be taking more efficiencies, but also where we need to invest for growth. We're not going to give guidance for 2024 on this call, but I would say we feel very good about the $70 million that we delivered in 2023. That was above our plan of $60 million. And it's part of our...
<unk>, but I would say we feel very good about the $70 million that we delivered in 2023 that was about the plan of $60 million and it's part of.
Writing.
<unk> that we will continue to look at web two B C. A b.
Speaker 8: rhythm that we will continue to look at where do we see ability to invest and also where do we see ability to continue to be more efficient. The shifts to the commerce media platform and the self service capability enables more efficiency and the continued focus on ensuring that we're delivering for all of our clients at scale also enables flow through of those dollars to the bottom line as well.
<unk> to invest and also where do we see ability to continue to be more efficient the shipped to the comments media platform and the self service capability enables more efficiency.
And they continued focus on ensuring that we're delivering for scientists scale also enables fly through upsized. All this to the bottom line as well.
Okay. Thanks.
The next question is from Matthew.
Speaker 1: The next question is from Matthew Coff with Morgan Stanley .
Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead.
Speaker 9: Hi everybody, thanks for staying to questions. I guess on the guidance for 24 and kind of like the expectation step down for 25, how much of it is macro versus micro? You talked about an expectation to outpace the market in 24. Are you expecting to outpace the market to the same magnitude you did before? Just the market will be weaker. What's the mix there?
Hi, everybody. Thanks for taking the questions I guess on the <unk> guidance for 24.
And and and kind of like the the expectation stepped down for 25, how much of it is makeovers micros do you talk about an expectation to outpace the market and 24 are you expecting to outpace the market to the same magnitude you did before just you know the market will be weaker what what what's the <unk> that I can follow up.
Thank you.
Speaker 7: Yeah, first of all, first of all, we're not giving guidance for 2024, but of course, we, you know, as always, we'll discuss guidance in our early 2024 call after year end. Our expectations is that we will continue to outpace the market on media spend, and we're focused on short, medium and long-term and a particular medium to long-term.
Yeah, <unk> well first of all we're not giving guidance of 2024, but a cool sweet you know as as always will will discuss guidance and not funny early 2024, so after ear and our expectations is that we will continue to outpace the the market on media spend.
Mm I focused on short medium and long term in a particular medium to long term.
The 2024 of the most of the challenge is the macros.
Speaker 8: For 2024, the most of the challenge is the macro.
Speaker 7: I would say, slow down from the beginning of...
If they slowed down from the beginning of Q4 last year that was pretty significant set a starting point is significantly different that would be the key I tunes. That's change the focus on the ambitions to me, where we wanted to be by 2025.
Speaker 8: Q4 last year that was pretty significant. So the starting point is significantly different. That would be the key
Speaker 8: item that's changed the focus on the ambition to meet where we wanted to be by 2025. Yeah, we're making a...
Yeah, we're making a market.
Speaker 8: at the same time getting the product right, we feel fantastic about our launches.
Spending time getting the product right, we feel fantastic about our lunches, we feel good about the economic times that we set with appliance we feel terrific about the pricing model, we have for performance advertising M for retail media and frankly, you wanted to make sure. We were transparent with all of you you know as we go along.
Speaker 8: We feel good about the economic terms that we set with our clients. We feel terrific about the pricing model we have for performance advertising and for retail media. And, frankly, we wanted to make sure we were transparent with all of you as we go along this journey. So the uncertainty includes privacy standbox. We feel very good about where we will be for next year internally. It's a major dynamic shift for our industry.
This journey sorry, the uncertainty includes privacy sandbox, we feel very good about where we where we will be for next year into late it's a major dynamics shift for industry and that's all gonna happen in 2024 from testing to deprecation.
Speaker 8: And that's all going to happen in 2024 from testing to defecation.
Speaker 8: That's the biggest disruption the advertising industry has seen in the past 20 years. So there is of course some uncertainty as it was.
That's the biggest disruption in the advertising industry seen in the past 20 years.
So there is a cool some uncertainty as it relates to that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll just wait again, because I want to reiterate the long term story here, because it's just so critical. We're in this for the long term, and our strategy remains to Spain.
Yeah, I'll I'll, just <unk> the longterm store here because it's just so critical we're in this for a long time and now strategy remains the same.
Speaker 3: you'll see that we continue to win retailers, and from the biggest retailers to the smallest retailers.
You'll see that we continue to win retailers and from the biggest retailers to the smallest retire was winning them were significantly hit when it comes to the features and capabilities and how much would you mind for those retailers uhm, we respond to them every single day and make sure that we're in lockstep with them and <unk>.
Speaker 3: We're winning them. We're significantly ahead when it comes to features and capabilities and how much we're doing for those retailers.
Speaker 3: We respond to them every single day and make sure that we're in lockstep with them in their journey.
And then when growing with them and so this is this is.
Speaker 3: and that we're growing with them. And so this is a this is a long-term marketplace of which we find ourselves in a terrific position.
Longterm market place of which we find ourselves in is terrific physician <unk>.
Speaker 3: During this, we have to continue to work with those clients to evolve their economics to make sure they're long-term sustainable, focused on the right things, they drive profitability for us.
<unk>, we have to continue to work with those clients too evolve the economics to make sure there long-term signable focused on the right things that drive profitability for us and and that's that's what you're saying in the short term, but this is we C continue to see Mastiff uhm.
Speaker 3: And that's what you're saying in the short term. But this is, we continue to see a massive, a total addressable,
<unk> market for us.
Speaker 3: We now see closer to the market, so as the market that's available to us, and we're driving headlong towards our leadership position and that. So think out to the local term as much.
With me now and see closer to the market size of the market that's available to us Ah my driving headlong towards L. L leadership position on that so so thanks and capture a longterm as much as you can.
Speaker 6: God, thank you. And then just on commerce audiences, it was definitely another strong performance there, this quarter. I think you mentioned in the slide deck, no incremental signal loss impact in the quarter. So I guess what is motivating people to lean in to commerce audiences, even as kind of retargeting is declining somewhat year on year? Is it just preparing for signal loss next year? Like why are people doing it so aggressively now when retargeting is, you know, it's not getting any worse?
Got it. Thank you and then just on commerce audiences.
Another strong performance there this quarter I think you mentioned in the slide back you know no incremental signal loss of impact in the quarter.
What is what is motivating people to lean in to commerce audience is even though it's kind of re targeting it's declining somewhat you're on your is it just preparing for signal loss next year like why why are people doing it so aggressively now when we targeting as it is.
Not getting any worse in Q3.
Well, it's a new tactic for us we talked about it for a little while.
Speaker 3: What is the new tactic for us? We talked about it for a little while.
Speaker 3: And it's a newish tactic for us, and as I said before,
And it's it is a new it's a it's a newish tactics for awesome as I said before with wanted to expand beyond re targeting to offer solutions that go up <unk> and our clients are looking for for those that optionality to be able to move their dollars around depending on what objective.
Speaker 3: We've wanted to expand beyond retargeting to offer solutions that go up a funnel and our clients are looking for those that optionality to be able to move their dollars around depending on what objectives they're trying to meet. ?P?
They are trying to make him.
Comments audiences as we said when we were doing Alabama last year, and some advice Saddam audiences that a shop for audiences better promise based audience as as opposed to people who might be you know searching the family trade or [laughter] doing doing different activities, but not close to the point of ssilence or having those.
Speaker 3: As we said when we were doing our event last year, it's sort of based on audiences that are shopper audiences, that are promised based audiences as opposed to...
Speaker 3: people who may be searching their family tree or doing different activities but not close to the point of sale. And so having that capability there for targeting is a very powerful one. But let me not speak to it, let me pass it across to Todd, who's the architect of Connors Audience, and he can talk it through.
That capability therefore for targeting is a very powerful one, but let me not speak to let me pass it across to policy Uhm. So the architecture of commerce audience and he can talk it sir.
Yeah, I faced Megan I can't add that much but I can say that the growth is really pretty simple. If you think of how growth marketers are doing business there splitting their attention between acquiring new customers. The best new customers, who are shoppers based on <unk>.
Speaker 11: Yeah, thanks Megan. I can't add that much, but I can say that the growth is really pretty simple. If you.
Speaker 11: Think of how growth marketers are doing business. They're splitting their attention between inquiring.
Speaker 11: New customers, the best new customers who, you know, are shoppers based on real commerce data.
Commerce data and then they're looking at ways to retain those customers and drive more lifetime value in the past three targeting really fell into more of the ladder bucket and commerce audience is Paul more into former Uhm. If you look at how spent is cut across those two activities today is.
Speaker 11: And then they're looking at ways to retain those customers and drive more lifetime value. In the past, retargeting really fell into...
Speaker 11: more the latter bucket and commerce audiences fall more into the former.
Speaker 11: If you look at how spent is cut across those two activities
Speaker 11: Today about 30% is still going to retention style marketing and about 60 or 65% a little bit more going to growth.
<unk>, 30% is still going to retention style marketing and about about 60 or 65% a little bit more going to growth on the acquisition front. So what you're seeing in this growth is <unk> to magenta point, we brought a new capability to customers that are already thinking about.
Speaker 11: on the acquisitions run. So what you're seeing in this growth is, we, to Megan's point, we brought a new capability to customers.
Speaker 11: that are already thinking about both activities together and we gave them an avenue to spend both with us.
Both activities together and we gave them an avenue to spam, both with US and that's why you're seeing this growing as rapidly as you are and and we expect it to continue.
Speaker 11: And that's why you're seeing this growing as rapidly as you are and we expect it to continue.
Thank you.
[noise]. The next question is from Matthew.
With choice.
Please go ahead.
Speaker 12: Yeah, hey, good morning. Two questions if I could. First on the...
Yeah, Hey, good morning, two two questions if I could first on me.
Speaker 12: Retail me a shift that you're seeing with your top client more of a self-serve model. Is there any way to think about?
Retail media ship that you're saying with your top client more of a self serve models is there any way to think about.
Speaker 12: what percentage of retail media is still tied to a more full service, you know, take great take model and still could, could shift to more of a self-serve model. That would be the first question. Second question and maybe this one's for Todd.
What percentage of retail media is still tied to a more full service you know take a great gig model in the still could could shift to more of a self serve model that'd be the first question second question and maybe this one's for Todd.
Speaker 12: The privacy sandbox has been open for testing, you've been working with Google for a while now. So my question is, have we learned anything about just the usability or the efficacy that informs or incrementally informs your opinion for 2024? I would think that there's probably some learnings either gaining confidence or loss of confidence as you think about 2024, but a gap is kind of curious if there have been learnings on that front. Thanks.
Privacy sandbox, that's been open protesting you've been working for with Google for for for Awhile. Now. So my question is how do we learned anything about just use the ability or the efficacy that informs or incremental informs your opinion for 2024, I would think that there's probably some learning.
Either gaining confidence or loss of confidence that you think about 2024, but I'm just kinda curious if there had been learning some on that front. Thanks, so much.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I'll take the first part of that question. I mean, in terms of the retail medium model with our economic model with our client.
Yeah I'll take the first part of that question I mean, it says that the retail medium model with our economic model with our clients.
Speaker 8: We feel very good about the economic pricing that we have across the board. We've renewed most of our clients over the last 12 months, and we continue to renew. We've also seen already a shift to large brands being sold by the client versus by Criteo, and our commerce media platform capability being self-service already leans more into a platform pricing model. So ultimately, we are...
Feel very good about the economic pricing that we have across the board with renewed most of our clients over the last 12 months and we continued to renew.
We both I've seen alrighty I shipped to to lodge brands being sold by the client that is <unk>.
And I'll call Us media platform capability being self service already leans more into a platform pricing model <unk>, we anticipate.
Speaker 8: that rose to continue in terms of scale and in terms of, you know, that makes them...
Rose to continue in terms of scale in intensive yeah that makes it.
Speaker 8: I would say SAS light fees plus volume-based fees, plus value pricing for other services that we're delivering. And that's where most of our contracts already are and are continuing to shift.
I would say satellite feeds plus volume based based class value the tiny pricing for all the services that we're delivering and that's where most of our contracts already are on a continuing to shift.
Speaker 8: It's going to be around the scale and continuing to bring in new capabilities with increased fees coming in over time. It's really the scale play along with that new economic pricing model.
It's gonna be around the scale and continuing to bring a new capabilities with increased teeth coming in over time, it's ready to scale play along with that that new economic pricing model.
And then I can have over to told O'neill.
Speaker 8: And then I can have over to Todd on your privacy sandbox question.
<unk> December question.
[noise] yeah. Thanks, a lot Sarah Mat, we of course have learned a lot on the back of a very large investment at the company with the privacy sandbox in partnering with the Google team. What we've learned so far is that uhm, we can do a reasonably <unk>.
Speaker 11: Yeah, thanks a lot, Sarah. Matt, we of course have learned a lot on the back of a very large investment at the company with the privacy sandbox and partnering with the Google team. What we've learned so far is that we can do a reasonably good job with
Good job with are targeting a recommendation are bidding.
Speaker 11: our targeting, our recommendation, our bidding, and our measurement as we happen the past.
And our measurements as we have in the past Uhm and what we're excited to learn next because the the the knowledge that we've gained thus far has really been on traffic commingled privacy sandbox with third party cookies and what we're really waiting to do and learn from Max is the January.
Speaker 11: And what we're excited to learn next because the knowledge that we've gained thus far has really been on traffic that Tomingles privacy sandbox with third party cookies. And what we're really waiting to do and learn from next is
Speaker 11: The January or Q1 rather released of co-keyless traffic by Chrome, that 1% of the population that will be made available for testing for five months thereafter on a completely co-keyless basis.
Uhm or Q1, rather released a cookie list traffic by from about one per cent of the population that will be made available for testing for five months thereafter on a completely cookie was basis. So we've been preparing for this and we're feeling very good leading into that task.
Speaker 11: So we've been preparing for this and we're feeling very good leading into that test. We're going to learn a lot once we see how pure cookie free traffic can be targeted, can be made recommendation to, can be measured. But we feel very strong going into that period and we're going to be excited to share the results of our testing as we go through and as we have in the past.
We're gonna learn a lot once we see how pure cookie free traffic can be targeted can be made.
Made recommendation to can be measured how about we feel very strong going into that period, and we're gonna be excited to share the results of our testing as we go through and as we have in the past.
Let me let me just grabs on this one because I'm I'm actually it's an interesting question. It really speaks to the DNA off pretty young so I I do want to say something about this.
Speaker 3: Let me just grant one this one and we'll get because, Matthew, it's an interesting question and it really speaks to the DNA of proteo. So I do want to say something about this.
Speaker 3: I have a background as an athlete, as some of you know, and as an athlete.
I have a background as an estimate uhm, if some of you know and and as an S legs.
Speaker 3: You train every day, twice a day, for a day that is years ahead, years ahead, and it's just, it's about your resilience, it's about keeping your eye on the prize regardless of the ups and downs.
You're trying to every day twice a day for a day that is years ahead E as in here.
And it's just it's about your resilience, it's about keeping your eye on the prize regardless of the ups and downs.
Speaker 3: At Critia, we do exactly the same thing. So we allay the focus on getting through the privacy sandbox having trained for it for years. And it's the same story with our positioning and our future for our ad tech position for comments media. The ad tech provider for comments media, it is I am the prize, it is training every single day, twice a day for the day and the future. And that's the DNA that we have developed here.
And prettier, we do exactly the same thing. So we are laser focused on getting through the privacy sandbox, having trying to correct for years and it's the same story with L positioning and I'll future for for I'll add Tech decision for comments media <unk>.
<unk> for comments media. It is I'm a prior to this training every single diet twice a day for the diet in the future and that's the DNA that we <unk> yeah.
