The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is $35.7 million, which indicates growth of almost 24.4% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.
Moreover, the consensus mark for earnings is pegged at a loss of 13 cents, which has been stable over the past 30 days.
Let’s see how things are shaping up prior to this announcement.
Key Factors to Consider
Rubicon Project’s top line is expected to benefit from momentum in mobile and video revenues. While mobile revenues jumped 63% year over year and accounted for 53% of total revenues in the first quarter, video revenues almost doubled.
The strong demand for video advertising inventory, owing to higher engagement and ROIs, is a major growth driver for Rubicon Project. The company’s wide range of video offerings are expected to significantly contribute to top-line growth in the to-be-reported quarter.
Moreover, collaborations with the likes of The Trade Desk, DigiTrust and LiveRamp’s tools are likely to reduce the company’s dependence on cookies and improve privacy control of users.
Further, the launch of Prebid-based Demand Manager in May is expected to attract more customers, thereby driving the top line.
However, decreasing CPM is likely to hurt top-line growth modestly in the to-be-reported quarter.
What Our Model Says
According to the Zacks model, a company with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) along with a positive Earnings ESP has a good chance of beating estimates. The Sell-rated stocks (Zacks Rank #4 or 5) are best avoided.
