About Clikia
Clikia casts itself as a provider of streaming (over-the-top) content as part of a television subscription service. The company streaming service offers 65+ cable television channels through the Clikia App available on both Google Play Store, Amazon, and Roku.
Recent Developments
It is impossible to pinpoint the exact trigger behind Clikia’s recent spike in share price and market activity. The company is yet to release any substantial update that in most cases would have triggered renewed investor interest, conversely fuel the upward momentum.The last piece of information about Clikia came out in February as the management reiterated they were working round the clock to continue delivering premium movie package in a bid to attract more subscribers into the network.
“We know our subscribers want this premium package and we remain pleased with the progress made to date,” stated CEO David Loflin.
In the press release, the executive reiterated that a premium movie channel would go a long way in strengthening Clikia competitive edge ideal for holding on to customers and attracting more. As it stands, the company is relying on the premium movie channel to win over customers shunning traditional cable connections.Early in the year, the management also reiterated that operating independently from any cable company is a competitive edge that should work to Clikia advantage as it pushes for market share in the highly competitive streaming business.
“At its core, streaming is a movement away from traditional cable companies. Those companies are now fighting to dominate the streaming space by offering streaming capability with their monthly cable subscriptions. Clikia, being independent of any cable company, simply streams its cable television content through the Clikia App,” Clikia in a statement.
After restructuring from MK Automotive, Clikia finds itself in a sector where competition is the order of the day. The emergence of the Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX) and Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) poses the biggest threat in the company’s push for market share in the multi-billion streaming sector. However, amidst the stiff competition, Clikia stands a chance on carving a niche market for itself in the sectorThe company has since set sights on offering a premium movie channel. While a novel idea, the company will have to replenish its library with blockbuster titles if it is to give subscribers a reason to shun other services in favor of its own.As the cable, cutting menace continues to gather pace Clikia remains well positioned to attract a substantial amount of people into its network. Competitive pricing will have to come into play if the company is to shrug off competition and grow its subscription base.
