From Delta Airlines to SHEIN, Papa John’s to Aveeno, the “Brands In Games” (B.I.G.) version of the BRAG Index reveals 100+ brands with untapped advertising potential in mobile games.

AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Digital Turbine and Apptopia today announced the launch of the BRAG Index IV, pivoting the Index’s scope to focus specifically on the “Brands in Games” (B.I.G.) opportunity. The B.I.G. BRAG Index marks a pivotal moment for brand advertisers seeking to capitalize on the explosive growth and untapped potential of mobile gaming.

The “Brands In Games” (B.I.G.) BRAG Index reveals 100+ brands with untapped advertising potential in mobile games

With leading publications heralding mobile gaming as a pivotal advertising frontier for 2024, the B.I.G. BRAG Index lists the brands consumed more by gamers than the general population. This fills a crucial void by identifying who is poised to harness this dynamic platform across various brand categories and game genres.

From Airlines to QSRs, Brick-and-Mortar Retailers to Beauty & Cosmetics, the B.I.G. BRAG Index IV highlights over 100 brands with untapped advertising potential in mobile games. Whether targeting fitness enthusiasts, adventure seekers, or beauty aficionados, the index offers invaluable insights for crafting tailored marketing campaigns in 2024.

The B.I.G. BRAG Index is based on a survey of 1,200 U.S. mobile gaming consumers’ brand interest and purchase intent in Q4 of 2023. From these responses, the following interests and brands were found to be the most over-indexed by players of the four most popular categories of mobile games—Puzzle, Word, Card, and Action:

Word Gamers show an affinity for fitness and travel, with top brands including Red Bull, Delta Airlines, and Panera Bread.Puzzle Gamers gravitate towards beauty and adventure, favoring brands like Aveeno, Travelocity, and Lululemon.Card Gamers exhibit a penchant for beauty and DIY projects, embracing brands such as Tarte Cosmetics, Ace Hardware, and SHEIN.Action Gamers also love action offline, enjoying adventure sports and outdoor activities, aligning with brands like Jordan, Levi’s, and Travelocity.

Jon Hudson, VP of Global Sales at Digital Turbine, remarked: “The B.I.G. BRAG Index is an indispensable resource for brand advertisers navigating the ever-evolving landscape of mobile marketing. Armed with comprehensive insights from the B.I.G. BRAG Index, advertisers across all brand categories can seize untapped opportunities and unlock the full potential of mobile gaming in their 2024 marketing strategies.”

Mobile gaming presents an unparalleled opportunity for brands to connect with consumers at scale. With over 150 million players in the USA alone, mobile gaming boasts a larger audience than top social platforms like Instagram and TikTok combined. US consumers spend an average of 28 minutes daily immersed in mobile games, surpassing engagement on any social platform except YouTube.

The B.I.G. BRAG Index also reveals the profound impact of in-game advertising, which averages up to 22 seconds of attention—nearly ten times the engagement of popular social media platforms. Moreover, mobile gaming offers advertisers access to a unique audience segment, with 21% of mobile gamers eluding traditional social media outreach efforts.

Despite this staggering appeal, brand advertisers have been slow to capitalize on the mobile gaming phenomenon. While nearly 11% of app usage occurs within mobile games, advertising spending in this space languishes at less than 4% of total ad spend.

Hyperscale Data Holds Approximately $53 Million in Cash, Restricted Cash and Bitcoin, Representing Nearly 200% of Recent Market Capitalization

Published

on

By

LAS VEGAS, Sept. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Hyperscale Data, Inc. (NYSE American: GPUS), an artificial intelligence (“AI”) data center company anchored by Bitcoin (“Hyperscale Data” or the “Company”), today announced that, as of September 3, 2026, it held approximately $36 million in cash and restricted cash and approximately 215 Bitcoin.

As of September 3, 2026, the Company’s combined cash, restricted cash and Bitcoin holdings totaled approximately $53 million, based on a Bitcoin price of approximately $81,500, representing nearly 200% of the Company’s equity market capitalization as of that date.

Milton “Todd” Ault III, Executive Chairman of Hyperscale Data, stated, “Hyperscale Data currently holds approximately $36 million in cash and restricted cash and approximately 215 Bitcoin, with an estimated market value of approximately $18 million. Together, these assets total approximately $53 million, equal to nearly twice the Company’s recent equity market capitalization.

“We sold a portion of our Bitcoin and deployed the proceeds to support the continued buildout of our Michigan AI data center as we prepare to perform under our master services agreement (the ‘MSA’) with a California-based neocloud provider. The MSA provides for the deployment of 20 megawatts, has an initial term of 10 years and includes two five-year extension options that may be exercised by the customer. If the customer exercises both extension options, the MSA is expected to generate in excess of $1.2 billion in revenue over the maximum 20-year term.

“This was a deliberate capital-allocation decision. We believe investing in the infrastructure necessary to perform under the MSA has the potential to create substantially greater long-term value for the Company and our stockholders. Even after deploying capital toward the Michigan facility, the value of our cash, restricted cash and remaining Bitcoin substantially exceeds our recent equity market capitalization. Although this comparison does not reflect our liabilities or the restrictions applicable to certain cash balances, we believe it provides meaningful context regarding the Company’s current market valuation and underlying assets. In my view, the market is not presently reflecting the underlying value of the Company.”

The Company notes that the market value of Bitcoin and the market capitalization of Hyperscale Data fluctuate continuously. Restricted cash is subject to applicable restrictions on its use. The comparison in this release is intended to highlight the relationship between these specific assets and the Company’s recent equity market capitalization and should not be interpreted as a calculation of net cash, enterprise value, liquidation value or amounts available for distribution to stockholders.

For more information on Hyperscale Data and its subsidiaries, Hyperscale Data recommends that stockholders, investors and any other interested parties read Hyperscale Data’s public filings and press releases available under the Investor Relations section at hyperscaledata.com or available at www.sec.gov.

About Hyperscale Data, Inc.

Through its wholly owned subsidiary Sentinum, Inc., Hyperscale Data owns and operates a data center that offers colocation and hosting services for the emerging AI ecosystems and other industries. Hyperscale Data’s other wholly owned subsidiary, Ault Capital Group, Inc. (“ACG”), is a hybrid private equity firm and operating company that acquires, finances, builds and actively manages businesses across financial services, digital assets, industrial services, hospitality, defense technologies and other sectors.

Hyperscale Data currently expects the divestiture of ACG (the “Divestiture”) to occur in 2027. Upon the occurrence of the Divestiture, the Company would be an owner and operator of data centers to support high-performance computing services, as well as a holder of the digital assets. Until the Divestiture occurs, the Company will continue to provide, through ACG and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries and strategic investments, mission-critical products that support a diverse range of industries, including an AI software platform, equipment rental services, defense/aerospace, industrial, automotive and hotel operations. In addition, ACG is actively engaged in private credit and structured finance through Ault Lending, LLC, a licensed lending subsidiary. Hyperscale Data’s headquarters are located at 11411 Southern Highlands Parkway, Suite 190, Las Vegas, NV 89141.

On December 23, 2024, the Company issued one million (1,000,000) shares of a newly designated Series F Exchangeable Preferred Stock (the “Series F Preferred Stock”) to all common stockholders and holders of the Series C Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis. The Divestiture will occur through the voluntary exchange of the Series F Preferred Stock for shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock of ACG (collectively, the “ACG Shares”). The Company reminds its stockholders that only those holders of the Series F Preferred Stock who agree to surrender such shares, and do not properly withdraw such surrender, in the exchange offer through which the Divestiture will occur, will be entitled to receive the ACG Shares and consequently be shareholders of ACG upon the occurrence of the Divestiture.

ECOVACS Launches WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI, the Latest Addition to the World’s #1 Robotic Window Cleaner Line

Published

The latest WINBOT combines upgraded edge-to-edge scrubbing, cordless cleaning, intelligent navigation and comprehensive safety for a more effortless way to keep windows clean

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — ECOVACS Robotics today launched the WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI robotic window cleaner and WINBOT W2S PRO, the latest additions to the WINBOT family, following their global debut at IFA 2026 in Berlin. Showcasing ECOVACS’ latest advancements in robotic window cleaning, the new WINBOT models bring the company’s “Created for Ease” philosophy to a new generation of smarter, more effortless window cleaning. The WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI combines precise edge-to-edge scrubbing, cordless cleaning, intelligent navigation and comprehensive safety features to transform a once-tiring chore into a more hands-free, worry-free experience.

Window cleaning can be a time-consuming and potentially hazardous household task, particularly for large, hard-to-reach and exterior windows. The WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI is designed to take the work out of the chore, delivering powerful cleaning across glass surfaces while helping users clean more windows with fewer interruptions.

Precision at Every Corner, High Performance from Edge to Edge

The WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI features upgraded TruEdge 2.0 Technology, combining precise frame sensing with an optimized four-corner scrubbing system for more complete edge-to-edge cleaning coverage. Four active corner scrubbers use high-density felt bristles to target dirt along window borders and corners, while continuous frame detection helps the WINBOT maintain stable contact with window frames and edges. Together, the four-way scrubbing system delivers up to a 46% increase in cleaning efficiency compared with the previous generation, covering up to 1 square meter in 90 seconds.

The WINBOT can dynamically adjust its path and brush position as it encounters different window structures, helping minimize jamming and maintain consistent cleaning coverage without manual intervention. For tougher outdoor dirt such as rain stains, dust accumulation and bird droppings, its pressurized dual-side spray technology uses three precision spray nozzles on each side. The upgraded triple-nozzle design expands spray coverage to 90%, helping reduce dead spots while creating a fine, wind-resistant water film that loosens dirt before wiping. Combined with an ultra-fine microfiber wiping pad, the system helps lift away dust, pollen, water spots, fingerprints, smudges and pet marks for a streak-free finish.

For larger cleaning jobs, its 4.1 fl oz water reservoir provides up to 807 sq. ft. of coverage per fill, allowing users to clean more windows without repeatedly stopping to refill.

Multi-Purpose OMNI Station Redefines Convenience

The OMNI Station combines control, charging, power and storage in one portable base, making the WINBOT easy to set up, operate and transport. Its integrated 5200mAh battery provides up to 110 minutes of cordless cleaning, allowing users to clean in locations where power outlets may be difficult to access, such as balconies and bathrooms. The station can also connect directly to AC power for longer cleaning sessions.

A high-strength 2-in-1 compound cable combines power delivery and safety tethering in a single line and automatically retracts into the OMNI Station after cleaning, helping keep the setup organized and tangle-free. When the job is done, the WINBOT and its accessories can be stored inside the OMNI Station, while its soft rubber handle makes the station easy to carry.

Intelligently Adapts to Every Scenario

Powered by WIN-SLAM 4.0 Technology, the WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI can adapt its path planning across a wide range of window layouts, including expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, frameless partitions and vanity mirrors. Its multi-sensor detection system continuously monitors window frames and obstacles, allowing the WINBOT to calculate a bypass strategy when it encounters obstacles such as window handles or locks and continue cleaning.

Through the ECOVACS mobile app, voice control or shortcut buttons on the OMNI Station, users can choose from eight cleaning modes to suit different cleaning needs and scenarios. At just 66dB, the WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI is the quietest model in the WINBOT family to date. Its four-layer noise reduction system combines Dual-Wing Air Ducts, vibration control, acoustic padding and sound insulation to help deliver quieter operation.

Designed for Safety and Peace of Mind

The WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI features a 12-tier protection system combining hardware and software safeguards for a secure and reliable cleaning experience. Key protections include 10,000Pa suction power, automatic air pressure compensation, a floating wiping pad plate, anti-drop protection and power-off protection. The automatic air pressure compensation system detects air leaks in as little as 0.007 seconds and compensates to help maintain consistent suction.

If power is interrupted or the battery level becomes low, power-off protection keeps the WINBOT attached to the window for more than 30 minutes, providing additional time for users to respond.

For additional peace of mind, users can also enjoy insurance protection in the unlikely event of damage caused by a loss of suction.

Pricing and Availability

The ECOVACS WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI is now available at a limited-time launch price of $499.99, a $100 discount off its $599.99 MSRP, through September 14, 2026. The WINBOT W2S PRO is available at a limited-time launch price of $339.99, a $60 discount off its $399.99 MSRP, through September 7, 2026. Both are available through the official ECOVACS store on Amazon.
