UBS lowers its valuation marker

UBS kept a Buy rating while reducing its target to USD 15.00 from USD 16.00. The cited reasons were a weaker advertising-budget backdrop and signs of continued customer attrition to Amazon, according to Markets Insider.

The latest operating figures show why the target move matters. The Trade Desk reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of USD 715.06 million, up 3.00 percent year over year, while operating profit was USD 101.58 million, according to the standardized quarterly figures. The company also reported USD 64.39 million in net income for the quarter.

Three dated stock developments

On August 6, 2026, second-quarter revenue reached USD 715.06 million, according to Benzinga. On September 18, 2026, Guggenheim raised its target to USD 13.00 from USD 12.00, according to the reported analyst history. On October 13, 2026, The Trade Desk expanded its Italian connected-TV offering with Pause Ads on two streaming services, HBO Max and discovery+, as WN reported.

What does the guidance imply?

Management set a third-quarter 2026 revenue floor of at least USD 650.00 million and forecast adjusted EBITDA of USD 160.00 million. The second-quarter adjusted EBITDA figure was USD 241.00 million, producing a 34.00 percent margin, according to Benzinga. The guidance therefore puts execution and demand conversion ahead of longer-term product initiatives.

Next reporting date

The next quarterly results are estimated for November 5, 2026, after the market close, with a 5:00 p.m. ET conference call, according to MarketBeat.
