The digital-advertising platform operator's shares have seen an increase of 4.13% over the last month, not keeping up with the Computer and Technology sector's gain of 7.88% and the S&P 500's gain of 5.22%.
The investment community will be closely monitoring the performance of The Trade Desk in its forthcoming earnings report.

Meanwhile, the latest consensus estimate predicts the revenue to be $684.33 million, indicating a 17.07% increase compared to the same quarter of the previous year.
For the annual period, the Zacks Consensus Estimates anticipate earnings of $1.77 per share and a revenue of $2.85 billion, signifying shifts of +6.63% and +16.6%, respectively, from the last year.
Additionally, investors should keep an eye on any recent revisions to analyst forecasts for The Trade Desk. Such recent modifications usually signify the changing landscape of near-term business trends. As a result, we can interpret positive estimate revisions as a good sign for the business outlook.
Our research suggests that these changes in estimates have a direct relationship with upcoming stock price performance. We developed the Zacks Rank to capitalize on this phenomenon. Our system takes these estimate changes into account and delivers a clear, actionable rating model.
