Affiliate Monitor Three questions for the affiliate sector in 2022

Three questions for the affiliate sector in 2022

● Will GiG sell its media division ?
● Can the US affiliate industry persuade operators about revenue share ?

For Catena Media , the US state-by-state opportunity has helped the company overcome some of the recent challenges it has faced in its legacy markets in Europe , and particularly Germany .
On the face of it , its share price has responded well over the past 12 months , rising by 85 %. But as can be seen from the trajectory of the share price in the chart below , things arguably could have been a whole lot better .
