Verifikation

Plausibel

PLAUSIBLE. Structurally sound: mobile ad revenue roughly doubled ($47B→$107B) while IAP declined or was flat. In years where the non-ad segment contracted (2022, 2023), ad growth exceeded total market growth, making the 145% upper bound plausible. The 37% lower bound reflects years where non-ad segments also grew. Exact percentages depend on Ball's specific market definition, which is not fully disclosed.
