NO-HEADQUARTERS/REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Feb. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PubMatic, Inc. (Nasdaq: PUBM), an independent technology company delivering digital advertising's supply chain of the future, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
"Revenue growth in the year more than doubled over 2023, driven by strength in CTV, emerging revenue streams, and marquee customers choosing PubMatic to build and scale their ad businesses. Our revenue mix is evolving; in the fourth quarter, CTV more than doubled to 20% of total revenue. These achievements mark an inflection point in our underlying business that highlights critical scale on our platform and a significant shift in ad buying toward channels with the highest consumer engagement such as CTV, mobile app and commerce media," said Rajeev Goel, co-founder and CEO at PubMatic. "Today, our omnichannel platform serves publishers, media buyers, commerce media networks, and curation/data providers, all of which are turning to sell side technology for critical end-to-end solutions needed to build their ad businesses. As we look to 2025, we expect accelerated growth in our underlying business as ad buyers seek premium, brand safe, curated inventory in the open internet."

The section titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below describes our usage of non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations between historical GAAP and non-GAAP information are contained at the end of this press release following the accompanying financial data.
"In 2024, we delivered record share of revenue for CTV, mobile app and emerging revenues, and achieved an all-time high of Supply Path Optimization activity. We also significantly expanded our margins, once again, demonstrating the strength of our durable model and our strategic commitment to steward both operational excellence and targeted investments for growth," said Steve Pantelick, CFO at PubMatic. "In Q4, strong growth in the underlying business helped offset softer spending from the large DSP buyer we previously called out mid year. Going forward, we are taking a conservative approach as it relates to this buyer, and expect total revenues to grow year over year in the second half of the year once we lap this impact at the end of Q2 2025. Our underlying business, which excludes revenue from this DSP and political, is targeted to grow 15%+ and represent over two thirds of total company revenues in 2025."
Business Highlights
Omnichannel platform drives revenue in key secular growth areas
- Full year revenue from high value formats and channels, mobile and omnichannel video3, grew 17% over 2023.
- In Q4, revenue from omnichannel video, which includes CTV, grew 37% year-over-year.
- CTV reached scale, and was 20% of revenue in the fourth quarter, driven by growing inventory supply, SPO relationships, and strength in political advertising.
- Revenue from mobile app grew 16% over 2023 as we scaled to over 900 mobile app publishers.
High consumer engagement channels fuel ad demand and sell-side data curation
- New and expanded partnerships announced in 2024 with premium streaming brands including Roku, Dish Media, Disney+ Hotstar, TCL and Xumo. We now work with 80% of the top 30 streaming publishers.
- The number of Activate customers grew nearly 6x over 2023.
- Supply Path Optimization represented 53% of total activity on our platform in 2024, up from 45% in 2023.
- Connect drives more performant, targeted ad campaigns across the open internet, offering 190 data sets to ad buyers on PubMatic. Connect is a leading platform for data providers and curators to integrate first-party data, package inventory, sell to, and optimize outcomes for ad buyers.
Focused investments drive long-term growth opportunities
- More than doubled total addressable market to over $120 billion via products that address four key stakeholders across the digital advertising ecosystem: publishers, media buyers, curators and data providers, and commerce media networks.
- Contribution from emerging revenue streams, which expand beyond ad monetization services, doubled from 2023.
Recent product launches
- Launched CTV Marketplaces, offering ad buyers pre-curated CTV inventory available only on PubMatic, built directly from our sell side technology. CTV Marketplaces allows publishers to unlock more value from their inventory and provides ad buyers off-the-shelf, easy to buy premium content and targeted audiences, including curated live sports inventory.
- Launched Creative Category Manager, a generative AI solution that scans and classifies each video ad creative on granular criteria. First used to unlock millions of dollars in political ad spend, it drove significant CTV revenue. This gen AI solution will soon expand to other use cases and verticals.
- Launched PubMatic Assistant, a gen AI powered reporting tool that allows publishers to request any report or data using simple plain language text queries. As a result, publishers can streamline analytics, enhance productivity and unlock new growth opportunities by uncovering insights in big data. This powerful tool removes barriers to adoption and drives increased platform usage.
2024 operating priorities drove profitable growth
- Aligned with our growth investments, increased global headcount in 2024 by 11% over 2023, adding new team members across product management, engineering and go-to-market teams to accelerate long-term revenue growth.
- Infrastructure optimization initiatives and investments drove nearly 263 trillion impressions processed in 2024, an increase of 25% over 2023.
- Cost of revenue per million impressions processed decreased 18% on a trailing twelve month period, as compared to the prior period.
- Scaled adoption of generative AI drove increased engineering productivity by 15%+ which led to faster software development, testing and release processes.
Financial Outlook
Q1 outlook includes the continued headwind from one of our top DSP buyers that revised its auction approach in late May 2024. Adjusted EBITDA expectation assumes a negative FX impact predominately from Euro and Pound Sterling expenses. It also assumes that general market conditions do not significantly deteriorate as it relates to current macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions.
Accordingly, we estimate the following:
For the first quarter of 2025, we expect the following:
- Revenue to be in the range of $61 million to $63 million.
- Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $5 million to $7 million.
Although we provide guidance for adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow, we are not able to provide guidance for net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Certain elements of the composition of GAAP net income, including stock-based compensation expenses, are not predictable, making it impractical for us to provide guidance on net income or to reconcile our adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income without unreasonable efforts. For the same reason, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.
Conference Call and Webcast details
PubMatic will host a conference call to discuss its financial results on Thursday, February 27, 2025 at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time (4:30 p.m. Eastern Time). A live webcast of the call can be accessed from PubMatic's Investor Relations website at https://investors.pubmatic.com. An archived version of the webcast will be available from the same website after the call.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our results determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), including, in particular operating income, net cash provided by operating activities, and net income, we believe that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per share and free cash flow, each a non-GAAP measure, are useful in evaluating our operating performance. We define adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, unrealized loss and impairment of equity investment, interest income, acquisition-related and other expenses, and provision for income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents adjusted EBITDA calculated as a percentage of revenue. We define non-GAAP net income as net income adjusted for unrealized loss on equity investments, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related and other expenses, and adjustments for income taxes. We define non-GAAP free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities reduced by purchases of property and equipment and capitalized software development costs.
In addition to operating income and net income, we use adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income as measures of operational efficiency. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors for period to period comparisons of our business and in understanding and evaluating our operating results for the following reasons:
- Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income are widely used by investors and securities analysts to measure a company's operating performance without regard to items such as stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and provision for income taxes that can vary substantially from company to company depending upon their financing, capital structures and the method by which assets were acquired; and,
- Our management uses adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income in conjunction with GAAP financial measures for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget, as a measure of operating performance and the effectiveness of our business strategies and in communications with our board of directors concerning our financial performance; and adjusted EBITDA provides consistency and comparability with our past financial performance, facilitates period-to-period comparisons of operations, and also facilitates comparisons with other peer companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results.
Our use of non-GAAP financial measures has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are as follows:
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (a) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (b) the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation; or (c) tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;
- Although depreciation and amortization expense are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements; and
- Non-GAAP net income does not include: (a) unrealized losses resulting from our equity investment; (b) the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation; (c) income tax effects for stock-based compensation and unrealized losses from our equity investment; or (d) acquisition-related and other expenses.
Because of these and other limitations, you should consider adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income along with other GAAP-based financial performance measures, including net income and our GAAP financial results.
Forward Looking Statements
This press release contains "forward-looking statements" regarding our future business expectations, including our guidance relating to our revenue and adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2025, our expectations regarding our adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, capital expenditures, future hiring, future market growth, our long-term revenue growth, target revenue and our ability to gain market share. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions and may differ materially from actual results due to a variety of factors including: our dependency on the overall demand for advertising and the channels we rely on; our existing customers not expanding their usage of our platform, or our failure to attract new publishers and buyers; our ability to maintain and expand access to spend from buyers and valuable ad impressions from publishers; the rejection of the use of digital advertising by consumers through opt-in, opt-out or ad-blocking technologies or other means; our failure to innovate and develop new solutions that are adopted by publishers; the war between Ukraine and Russia and the resumption of conflict between Israel and Palestine, and the related measures taken in response by the global community; the impacts of inflation as well as fiscal tightening and volatile interest rates; public health crises, including the resulting global economic uncertainty; limitations imposed on our collection, use or disclosure of data about advertisements; the lack of similar or better alternatives to the use of third-party cookies, mobile device IDs or other tracking technologies if such uses are restricted; any failure to scale our platform infrastructure to support anticipated growth and transaction volume; liabilities or fines due to publishers, buyers, and data providers not obtaining consents from consumers for us to process their personal data; any failure to comply with laws and regulations related to data privacy, data protection, information security, and consumer protection; and our ability to manage our growth. Moreover, we operate in a competitive and rapidly changing market, and new risks may emerge from time to time. For more information about risks and uncertainties associated with our business, please refer to the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and "Risk Factors" sections of our SEC filings, including but not limited to, our annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on From 10-Q, copies of are available on our investor relations website at https://investors.pubmatic.com and on the SEC website at www.sec.gov.

1 Net income, Adjusted EBITDA, and Non-GAAP net income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 include other income of $4.0 million related to our efforts to build and test integrations with the Google Privacy Sandbox.
1 Net dollar-based retention is calculated by starting with the revenue from publishers in the trailing twelve months ended December 31, 2023 ("Prior Period Revenue"). We then calculate the revenue from these same publishers in the trailing twelve months ended December 31, 2024 ("Current Period Revenue"). Current Period Revenue includes any upsells and is net of contraction or attrition, but excludes revenue from new publishers. Our net dollar-based retention rate equals the Current Period Revenue divided by Prior Period Revenue. Net dollar-based retention rate is an important indicator of publisher satisfaction and usage of our platform, as well as potential revenue for future periods.
2 Fiscal year 2023 GAAP net income includes approximately $5.7 million of incremental bad debt expense related to the bankruptcy of a Demand Side Platform buyer of our platform.
