AppLovin Soars Despite Scrutiny, Launches Self-Serve Ad Platform
AppLovin reported strong Q3 results with revenue of just over $1.4 billion, up 68% year over year, and free cash flow of about $1.05 billion, up 92%. The company faces regulatory scrutiny over data practices, including an SEC investigation into device fingerprinting and preliminary probes by state attorneys general into consumer privacy. It also discontinued its Array app distribution tool amid accusations of installing apps without explicit user consent. In parallel, AppLovin has begun rolling out Axon Ads Manager, a self-serve ad platform with AI-enabled optimization, initially invite-only with plans to broaden access next year.

Austria: Digital Ad Spend Up, Traditional Media Down
In Austria, advertising spending on international digital platforms surged by approximately 15% to €1.5 billion in the first half of 2026, while traditional media saw a decline of nearly 8% to €840 million. These figures are derived from Austrian digital tax and advertising levy revenues, which provide a unique data source. Austria has levied a digital tax on online advertising since 2020, whereas Germany has yet to implement such a tax. The analysis highlights the growing shift of ad budgets toward global tech giants like Alphabet and Meta. Alphabet's ad business reached $294.7 billion in 2025, while Meta's ad revenue hit $196.2 billion. The data also reveals limitations, such as the exclusion of ads booked directly with Austrian portals and the difficulty in attributing revenue passed to publishers via Google AdSense. Austrian media associations are advocating for using digital tax revenues for media funding, while German publishers await further steps on a proposed digital tax.
