PR Newswire: AdQuick Partnership
- Positive Sentiment: Industry/digital momentum highlighted by coverage noting accelerating digital OOH demand — supports the narrative that OUT’s digital mix can drive higher revenue/returns over time. Investing.com: Digital OOH Momentum
- Neutral Sentiment: Analyst/metrics review: Coverage (Zacks) digs into metric comparisons vs. estimates and year‑ago levels to parse the beat and sustainability of growth; useful for modeling but not an immediate market mover. Zacks: Key Metrics on Q4
