Mediaocean Switches Private Equity Owners, As It Evolves For An Internet-Delivered Age

Mediaocean will switch private equity ownership from Vista Equity Partners to CVC Capital Partners and TA Associates, with CVC and TA taking on Vista’s equity stake. Leadership changes include John Nardone, formerly CEO of Flashtalking, named Mediaocean president; Lance Neuhauser, former CEO of 4C Insights, named commercial president; Bill Wise remains CEO. The Flashtalking deal, acquired for $500 million in July, followed by Mediaocean’s March acquisition of verification firm Protected Media, signals a push into brand safety and fraud detection. The platform processes about $200 billion in annualized ad spend, with more than half delivered over the internet in the past year. Management says the company will invest in new product lines, including converged TV capabilities and Scope (the 4C product), and will tightly integrate the ad server with verification to support cross-channel workflows in an open, independent internet ecosystem.
