INCREASING SEARCH COMPETITIO N DRIVING FLIGHT TO MO BILE

Google expanded its leading share of the search market to 67% in December 2009, growing the number of searches
that its engine conducts by 58% Y/Y. However, Microsoft’s re-entry into the search space with Bing has shown
promise that the fight is not over. Microsoft-originated W eb queries grew 70% Y/Y – besting Google’s growth.

W e believe that the increasing number of competitors in the general search market is one of the key drivers (along
with the transition to mobile computing that gained significant momentum with the advent of the iPhone) behind the
move to mobile advertising amongst the heavyweights in the industry. Evidence of a move to mobile can be seen in
the acquisitions of AdMob (by Google) and Quattro W ireless (by Apple), the release of Google’s Android mobile
operating system and associated device line-up, and the prevalence of the App Store distribution model made popular
by Apple.
