The U.S.-based ad-tech firm received a "buy" rating with a $13.7 price target, implying a 14% upside, driven by strong growth in its Connected TV (CTV) segment. CTV revenue surged 32% year-over-year, now accounting for over 50% of total revenue, cementing its role as the company’s primary growth engine. Financial performance improved significantly in FY 2025, with contribution ex-TAC up 10% YoY, adjusted EBITDA rising 18%, and net leverage reduced to zero. Legacy DV+ revenue declines pose a risk, potentially offsetting CTV gains, though industry trends favor continued margin expansion in the CTV sector. The company operates as a leading sell-side platform (SSP), helping publishers monetize ad space across CTV, desktop, and mobile channels.
