ReachLocal The Truth About ReachLocal - What Clients Need to Know Woodland Hills Nationwide

This is the truth all supported by facts and if you are a ReachLocal client you need to know the following. 

ReachLocal is corrupt. This is not coming from maliousness. These are facts that every client or prospet of theirs need to know. Scroll to the bottom if you are an advertiser you need to be aware of their profit margins. 70% + of our budget goes into their pockets. 

ReachLocal is in dire straits. They reported a 13 million dollar loss Q1 2015. Per the Wall Street Journal and S&P 500; Stock has declined from 2300.00% compared to the year 2011. Stock has further declined in Q3 2014 to Q2 2015 "This is due to multiple weaknesses in multiple areas, such as its deteriorating net income, disappointing return on equity, weak operating cash flow, and generally disappointing historical performance in the stock itself and feeble growth in its earnings per share."

The net income has significantly decreased by 840.6% when compared to the same quarter one year ago.

Net operating cash flow has significantly decreased by 152.25% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, when comparing to the industry average, the firm's growth rate is much lower.

REACHLOCAL INC has experienced a steep decline in earnings per share in the most recent quarter in comparison to its performance from the same quarter a year ago. They have volatile earnings recently and they are likely to report a decline in earnings in the coming year. For 2015 the market is expecting a contraction of 390.9% in earnings

(Hence all of the above they have increased their profit margins by allocating less of a client’s budget to the publishers and more of the allocation of budget as profit)!
