Let’s see how things have shaped up prior to this announcement:

Factors to Consider

The Trade Desk’s top line, in the third quarter, is expected to have benefited from the momentum in programmatic ad buying. Steady Connected-TV spending is expected to have continued in the to-be-reported quarter.

Consistent customer retention is expected to have perked up the company’s revenues during the quarter. The Trade Desk’s customer-retention rate has remained at more than 95% in the recent period.

The growing adoption of UID2 bodes well for The Trade Desk. Moreover, an expanding partner base that includes the likes of Disney, Amazon’s cloud arm Amazon Web Services and Experian is noteworthy.

Integration of leading retailers like Walgreens, Albertsons and Target within The Trade Desk’s Solimar platform has been driving utilization growth from both endemic and non-endemic advertisers.

However, a challenging macro environment in Europe is expected to have hurt The Trade Desk’s top and bottom-line growth in the to-be-reported quarter.
