Digital OOH Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges
Based on our research output, there has been a positive impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The decline in competition from print advertising is notably driving the digital OOH market growth, although factors such as complex implementation requirements may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the digital OOH industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Digital OOH Market Driver
One of the key factors driving the digital OOH market growth is the decline in competition from print advertising. Primary raw materials used in print advertising are substrate and ink. Currently, there are several raw materials suppliers that offer their products to vendors; however, based on market conditions, this could change in the future. Printing ink is primarily produced using raw materials such as binders, pigments, solvents, and additives. These raw materials are procured from specialty chemical vendors. Pigments are considered the principal constituent of the ink and contribute a significant percentage to the production cost. Moreover, the oil and gas industry is one of the principal suppliers of raw materials used in printing ink. Digital advertising is increasing rapidly because of the decreasing adoption of print/physical media. Digital media advertising has developed and is taking up the share of print advertising. Print advertising is losing its share due to intense competition from the digital platform. In addition, the growing replacement of physical billboards with interactive billboards is driving market growth. The above factors indicate that digital OOH advertising has a promising future.
Key Digital OOH Market Trend
Another key factor driving the OOH market growth is the market consolidation. In December 2018, Lamar Advertising announced the acquisition of Fairway Outdoor Advertising s billboard operations in five US markets from GTCR LLC (GTCR) for a purchase price of $418.5 million. This acquisition adds more than 8,500 billboards, which includes more than 135 digital displays, in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Wisconsin. Lamar Advertising anticipates that this transaction contributed approximately $70 million in terms of revenue by early 2020.In October 2018, JCDecaux announced that JCDecaux ANZ Pty Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of JCDecaux, had completed the acquisition of APN Outdoor, an Australia-based OOH advertising company. The acquisition of APN Outdoor represented a significant milestone in JCDecaux s global growth strategy, making Australia their fourth-largest market and helped them enter a new market, namely New Zealand. These consolidation strategies implemented by major digital OOH companies focus on increasing their market share in the global market. Hence, this trend is expected to drive growth in the global digital OOH market during the forecast period.
Key Digital OOH Market Challenge
Complex implementation requirements is one of the key challenges hindering the OOH market growth. The cost of displaying a digital advertisement varies based on factors such as campaign length, exposure time and period, and the region. The high implementation cost of digital OOH advertising and ROI acts as a concern that many companies need to focus on before adopting this medium of advertisement. In addition, advertisers are required to take permission from local authorities or governing bodies for projecting advertisements through advertising media such as billboards, shelters, and transit displays in public places. One such instance is the implementation of digital advertising in the transit system. Advertisers need permission from transportation authorities to display an advertisement. These transport authorities face high pressure to offer their services without any increase in fare under an inflating global economy. Therefore, digital OOH vendors need to bear all the costs, including all necessary hardware and software installation, as well as labor expenses. All of these factors are likely to hinder the revenue inflow of the market in focus during the forecast period.
