Dear Team,

Happy New Year to one and all. We are starting out 2021 with the very exciting announcement that we have concluded our strategic review, which we began more than a year ago. You can read the just-published press release here [link to Company press release] but I will outline the key points in this email, and I will be hosting a Town Hall tomorrow to discuss this with you further.

We have entered into a series of financial and commercial agreements with Charter Communications, Qurate Retail, Inc. (number one in video commerce among the top 10 e-commerce retailers in North America) and Cerberus Capital Management. This framework, which is subject to shareholder approval, provides us with the financial flexibility to execute our strategic plan, and positions us to shape the next generation of advanced audience and advertising measurement through the addition of enhanced data rights and preferred partnerships. I believe this is a very, very good outcome of our strategic review, and I am excited about the possibilities that it opens for us. With these investments and agreements, we will:

•

Retire our existing debt, including our previous arrangements with Starboard Value.

•

Receive long-term, enhanced data rights from Charter Communications.

•

Become Charter’s preferred local measurement partner, providing local markets with an unprecedented amount of data for media measurement.

•

Remain an independent public company.

•

Gain 6 new Board members: 2 each from our 3 new partners. These new Board members represent our shared commitment to bringing our vision into reality in the industry.

Additionally, Comcast will be extending its current data rights agreement with Comscore. In combination with the arrangements outlined above, we will be able to pursue new opportunities in TV, digital, and cross-platform offerings, improved addressable advertising capabilities, and outcome-based attribution. All of this is key to accelerating our revenue growth.

This framework represents much that benefits Comscore, but also much that will benefit our customers and the industry. Modern media measurement must account for the many ways that people consume their media: traditional linear TV, streaming, and digital views. We have seen a necessary shift from traditional demographics to audiences and impression-based measurement. As the industry steps into the next generation of media, where agencies and advertisers are taking an audience-centric approach to planning and buying across myriad platforms, we have been taking a leading role in the industry to redefine “currency.” We will drive a new industry standard in media measurement towards impression-based measurement for selling and buying of advertising. We will take a fresh approach toward engaging with our clients, partners, and the industry to:

•

Innovate and build the next generation of audience and advertising solutions.

•

Expand our footprint – across platforms and around the world.

•

Empower our clients to succeed in the new normal with our customer-centric focus.

In terms of next steps, in addition to our press release today, we are reaching out to our customers and investor community with this news. We will move into the next phase of activities that are necessary to finalize and close these agreements. We anticipate a final shareholder vote later in Q1 2021.

As you can imagine, the weeks (and months) leading up to this announcement have been incredibly busy for many of your colleagues who have been immersed in this strategic review, in addition to their “normal” day-to-day work. I want to thank them especially for giving their holiday time, evenings, and weekends to get us to this point. Thank you.

And thank you to all of you who make this company something to be proud of, something to celebrate, and something that I believe will be monumentally successful in 2021 and beyond.

Kind regards,

Bill
