- Friday, September 7, 2012, 6:31 PM Facebook's (FB) U.S. mobile ad sales will total only $73M in 2012 (their first year of existence), estimates eMarketer, but will grow to $387M next year and $629M in 2014. But Google (GOOG) will remain the top dog in the space: its sales are expected to nearly double this year to $1.42B, and reach $3.6B in 2014. Also: Apple's (AAPL) iAd is expected to produce just $75M in 2012 U.S. sales, a small fraction of Pandora's (P) $226M. That could help explain a recent report. (FB Sponsored Stories) Comment! [Tech]
- Friday, September 7, 2012, 1:31 PM 40%-50% of Pandora (P -17.9%) listening now comes from iOS devices, estimates BofA, outlining the threat posed by Apple's (AAPL) rumored plans to launch a rival service. If there's a saving grace for Pandora, it's that Apple's service (assuming the rumor is true) will be exclusive to its own gear, something that could be a deal-breaker for those using Pandora on both Apple and non-Apple hardware. (earlier) 1 Comment [Tech]
- Friday, September 7, 2012, 9:11 AM Pandora (P) now -16.9% in response to the WSJ's report (I, II) on Apple's (AAPL) Internet radio ambitions. Pandora has thus far been successful in weathering challenges from Clear Channel, Spotify, and others, in part because of the time invested by its users in building custom stations. But a service that comes pre-installed on iOS devices, features tight iTunes integration, and is backed by Apple's brand and marketing machine would present a different kind of competition. 17 Comments [Tech, On the Move]

Losers: ADNC -59%. P -17%. MFRM -10%. FDUS -6%. PVG -5%. Comment! [On the Move] - Thursday, September 6, 2012, 8:44 PM More on Apple's (AAPL) Internet radio plans: Apple's service will reportedly feature iAds and only work on iOS and Mac OS gear. However, Apple is also said to be interested in offering "a greater degree of interactivity" than what Pandora and other Internet radio providers can support, should studios allow it to. Mobile streaming now makes up over 70% of Pandora's (P) listening time, and much of it involves iOS devices. 8 Comments [Tech]
- Thursday, September 6, 2012, 8:29 PM In news that may make Pandora (P) shareholders gulp hard, Apple (AAPL) is looking to create a rival to the popular custom-radio service, reports the WSJ, and has recently initiated licensing talks with record labels. It's not Apple's first foray into the area, but sources say these talks appear to be more serious than previous efforts. Pandora -4.5% AH. 3 Comments [Tech, Breaking News]
- Tuesday, September 4, 2012, 6:24 PM Pandora's (P) mobile ad sales may be growing quickly, but they come with some tradeoffs. The Internet radio leader disclosed in its 10-Q today that its average price/ad fell 27% Y/Y in FQ4 due to a mix shift towards mobile ads. At the same time, Pandora's sales force grew by 80%, as the company both ramps its mobile business and increasingly targets local advertisers. 1 Comment [Tech]
- Thursday, August 30, 2012, 11:02 AM Pandora (P +18.8%) is breaking out of that trading range it has been stuck in, as shorts cover following a solid earnings report fueled by soaring mobile ad sales. SunTrust and Canaccord are upgrading Pandora to Buy - the latter cites improving visibility, moderating content costs, and stronger mobile monetization. Canaccord now sees Pandora generating $40 in 2015 revenue per thousand mobile ads, up from a prior $25. Mobile display ad firm Millennial Media (MM +3.1%) is also higher. (transcript) Comment!

Pandora remains up 8.6% AH, as investors give a thumbs-up to its EPS beat, strong guidance, and growing mobile ad sales. 1 Comment [Tech, Earnings, Consumer]
- Wednesday, August 29, 2012, 4:20 PM More on Pandora's FQ2: FQ3 guidance is for revenue of $115M-$118M and EPS of $0.00-$0.01, largely above a consensus of $114.4M and $0.00.

- Wednesday, August 29, 2012, 4:05 PM Pandora Media (P): Q2 EPS of $0.00 beats by $0.03. Revenue of $101.3M (+51% Y/Y) in-line. Shares +8.9% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, On the Move, Tech]
- Wednesday, August 29, 2012, 9:36 AM Pandora (P +2.2%) trades higher ahead of this afternoon's FQ2 report. Shares have been range-bound this summer after soaring due to to the guidance accompany Pandora's FQ1 report. The monetization of Pandora's mobile radio listening will be in focus today. The company received semi-favorable news yesterday when growing rival Spotify reported an FY12 loss of $56.9M to go with revenue of $235.5M. Soaring content costs, something Pandora is no stranger to, played a big role. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
