On May 28, The Trade Desk declined 6.01% in regular trading, trading at $21.54/share, with trading volume of $36.87 million.
The decline comes amid continued fallout from the company's Q1 earnings report released earlier this month. Revenue came in at $689 million, representing a deceleration to 12% year-over-year growth, while net profit fell 21.08% compared to the prior year. Management guided for Q2 revenue growth to slow further to approximately 8%, citing geopolitical tensions and tariff-related headwinds affecting brand advertising budgets.
Compounding the growth concerns, four of the five largest global advertising holding companies have challenged The Trade Desk's 20% ad revenue share rate. Omnicom Group announced it would conduct an audit of the company, signaling deepening friction with key agency partners. CEO Jeff Green characterized the disputes as overstated, stating negotiations remain ongoing.
The stock has now fallen over 41% year-to-date and more than 70% over the past 52 weeks, as competitive pressure from Google, Amazon, and Meta continues to intensify in the programmatic advertising space.
