Dividend Power Score
A single, comprehensive score designed to measure the true strength of a company’s dividend.
This score combines three essential pillars of dividend quality:
Consistency – Measures how reliable the dividend has been over time, focusing on payment history, stability, and the absence of cuts or suspensions.
Payability – Assesses the company’s financial ability to sustain its dividend, taking into account cash flow, earnings coverage, balance sheet strength, and overall financial health.
Growth – Evaluates the long-term growth of both the dividend and the company’s share price, highlighting businesses that consistently increase payouts while creating shareholder value.
Higher scores identify companies that have historically delivered dependable income alongside sustained dividend growth and long-term capital appreciation.
Company Overview
Digital Turbine, Inc. (NASDAQ: APPS) is a technology company that operates in the mobile advertising, app monetization, and digital media industries. The company provides an end-to-end platform that enables advertisers, publishers, mobile carriers, and device manufacturers to deliver app discovery and advertising experiences directly on mobile devices. Its core value proposition centers on simplifying mobile user acquisition and monetization through on-device distribution and programmatic advertising solutions.
The company generates revenue primarily from mobile advertising, app installs, and monetization services delivered across Android and iOS ecosystems. Digital Turbine is uniquely positioned through its deep integration with mobile device original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and wireless carriers, allowing app discovery and advertising at the device level rather than solely through traditional app stores. The company was founded in 2011 and later rebranded from Mandalay Digital Group to Digital Turbine in 2017, reflecting a strategic shift toward scalable mobile growth and monetization platforms.
Business Operations
Digital Turbine operates through integrated business lines that collectively form its mobile growth platform, including On Device Solutions, App Growth Platform, and Content Media offerings. These operations generate revenue through advertising spend, revenue-sharing arrangements with OEMs and carriers, and performance-based user acquisition fees. The company’s technology enables app preloads, dynamic app recommendations, in-app advertising, and programmatic monetization across mobile devices.
The company conducts business both domestically and internationally, serving advertisers, app developers, OEMs, and mobile operators. Key subsidiaries include AdColony and Fyber, both acquired in 2021, which expanded Digital Turbine’s capabilities in video advertising, mediation, and real-time bidding. Digital Turbine controls proprietary software platforms that are embedded on millions of devices globally and maintains partnerships with major Android device manufacturers and wireless carriers.
Strategic Position & Investments
Digital Turbine’s strategy focuses on strengthening its end-to-end mobile advertising stack, increasing platform efficiency, and expanding higher-margin software-driven revenues.

The company has emphasized profitability, balance sheet management, and operational discipline following a period of rapid acquisition-driven expansion.
Major strategic investments include the acquisitions of AdColony and Fyber, which positioned Digital Turbine as a scaled independent mobile advertising platform outside of dominant walled gardens.
