Analysis · DSP · Technology
Broad-based advertiser demand powered a standout second quarter for Viant, with revenue climbing 34% year-over-year to $104.3 million. Healthcare, public services, and travel verticals surged 67%, underscoring the breadth of the recovery. The company guided third-quarter revenue to $107.5–$110 million, implying momentum is carrying forward. Adjusted EBITDA rose 26% to $14.2 million, though GAAP net income swung to a $1.8 million loss, pressured by higher operating expenses and acquisition-related costs. The quarter also saw the closing of the TVision acquisition, which adds attention measurement capabilities, and a favorable jury verdict in a patent infringement case brought by Nielsen. Against a backdrop of recent insider selling, CFO Larry Madden adopted a 10b5-1 plan to sell up to 144,978 shares, which may temper enthusiasm around the strong top-line growth.
