Nielsen Holdings Plc is scheduled to report fourth-quarter 2021 results on Feb 28.
For the fourth quarter, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $897.6 million, indicating a decline of 46.3% from the year-ago reported figure.

The company beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings in all the trailing four quarters, delivering an average surprise of 25.1%.
Nielsen’s fourth-quarter results are expected to reflect strength across three key solutions, namely Audience Measurement, Audience Outcomes and Gracenote Content Services.
The company has been gaining momentum across media buyers and sellers on the back of its robust portfolio of solutions. This is expected to have aided the quarterly performance.
The growing momentum of its single cross-media currency, Nielsen ONE, is likely to have been a major positive in the to-be-reported quarter.
In the quarter, the company introduced Nielsen ONE Alpha deduplicated ad measurement for Nielsen ONE. This is anticipated to have supported its quarterly performance.
In the fourth quarter, Nielsen and Whitehardt signed a multi-year agreement for local TV measurement in all markets served. NLSN also signed a multi-year deal with Antietam Broadband for Local TV measurement in Washington, DC, DMA. The benefits of the partnerships are expected to get reflected in the to-be-reported quarter’s results.
In addition to these, NLSN has been expanding its industry coverage of predictive return on investment (ROI) tools. This is expected to have attracted more advertisers, agencies, and media owners in the quarter under discussion.

The company’s rising selling, general and administrative expenses are likely to have remained concerning in the to-be-reported quarter.
