ZETA surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings in two of the trailing four quarters, missed once and met in another one, the average surprise being a negative 1%.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the top line is set at $370 million, indicating 39.9% growth from the year-ago quarter’s actual.
Growth in the top line is likely due to AI investments made over the past eight years, which have yielded high returns for marketers. The One Zeta strategy, the recurring sales model, aims to cross-sell multiple use cases to existing customers and is anticipated to have aided revenues as well.
Other factors, including super-scaled customers driving a higher proportion of revenues, the Marigold buyout boosting One Zeta strategy, and a higher request for proposal volume, are expected to have enhanced the top line.
The consensus estimate for earnings per share is 13 cents, suggesting a staggering 85.7% surge from the year-ago quarter’s actual.
