Zeta Global reported Q4 2025 revenue of $394.6M, up 25% year-over-year, with adjusted EBITDA rising 22% to $81.3M, driven by organic growth and Marigold integration. The Marigold acquisition and AI-powered Athena platform prompted analysts to raise Zeta’s 2026 target price, citing accelerated growth potential from expanded capabilities. Super-Scaled customers now account for nearly 90% of revenue, while net revenue retention hit a record 120%, signaling deepening client engagement and reduced churn. Despite a broader software sector selloff, Zeta’s stock returned 2% since Q3 2025, outperforming peers amid strong operational execution and strategic acquisitions. Analysts highlight Zeta’s AI-driven differentiation and Marigold’s synergy as key catalysts for sustained growth, though customer concentration risks remain a watchpoint.
