Strong Performance, Products Have The Trade Desk Rising

TTD offers customers a digital advertising platform that is branching out further into avenues like connected television and AI-aided ad buys. On the latter front, the company’s new Kokai platform uses AI and has shown promising acquisition cost results and solid performance. The Trade Desk has shown an ability to grow its lines of business over time.

In terms of earnings, TTD’s second-quarter earnings showed revenue growth of 26% on a year-over-year basis (to $585 million) and net income of $0.39 per share. The company has a strong financial position too, as evidenced by its $1.5 billion in cash and zero debt.
