Outlook and guidance
FY 2026 guidance reaffirmed: Contribution ex-TAC $388M–$402M, programmatic revenue $380M–$393M, and adjusted EBITDA $122M–$132M.
Guidance midpoint implies 12% YoY Contribution ex-TAC growth, 13% programmatic revenue growth, and 10% adjusted EBITDA growth with a 32% margin.
Preliminary October results point to the strongest top-line month to date; record Q4 Contribution ex-TAC, programmatic revenue and CTV revenue are expected.
Q4 adjusted EBITDA is expected to grow sequentially and YoY with margin expansion; most incremental Contribution ex-TAC is expected to flow through to adjusted EBITDA.
