The Trade Desk, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTD), a provider of a global technology platform for buyers of advertising, today announced financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2019.
“Thanks to our innovative platform and our commitment to objectivity and transparency in digital advertising, we delivered outstanding performance in the first quarter, again surpassing our expectations. We continued to add new advertisers and agencies to our platform and existing customers increased their spend. In Q1, we continued to develop closer relationships with the biggest brands in the world. Over half of the companies in the S&P 500 have run campaigns on our platform. We are executing well. For the quarter, revenue was $121 million, up 41% from a year ago and adjusted EBITDA increased to a Q1 record of $24.7 million,” said Founder and CEO of The Trade Desk, Jeff Green. “Spend growth came in channels key to our business such as Mobile, Video, Connected TV, and Audio. Data spend again grew about 2x our business. We continued to invest in technology infrastructure, product development, and international expansion. These areas of investment are critical to gaining additional market share.”
First Quarter 2019 Financial Highlights:
The following table summarizes our consolidated financial results for the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 ($ in millions, except per share amounts):
Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 2018 GAAP Results Revenue $ 121.0 $ 85.7 Increase in revenue year over year 41 % 61 % Net Income $ 10.2 $ 9.1 Diluted EPS $ 0.21 $ 0.20 Non-GAAP Results Adjusted EBITDA $ 24.7 $ 18.9 Adjusted EBITDA Margin 20 % 22 % Non-GAAP Net Income $ 23.1 $ 15.3 Non-GAAP Diluted EPS $ 0.49 $ 0.34First Quarter and Recent Business Highlights Include:
Second Quarter and Revised Full Year 2019 Outlook:
Mr. Green added: “In 2019, we are off to a great start. The biggest brands in the world continue to shift their advertising spending to programmatic through our platform. As a result, we are raising our 2019 revenue guidance to be at least $645 million. At the same time, we are continuing to make large investments in areas critical to our future. We now expect our adjusted EBITDA to be $188.5 million for 2019. The secular tailwind of programmatic is strong. Our focus is on gaining share and revenue growth, as this will ultimately maximize profitability over the long-term.”
The Trade Desk is providing its financial targets for the second quarter of 2019 and revised targets for its fiscal year 2019. The Company’s financial targets are as follows:
Second Quarter 2019:
Full Year 2019
Reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA guidance to the closest corresponding U.S. GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the variability and complexity with respect to the charges excluded from these non-GAAP measures; in particular, the measures and effects of our stock-based compensation expense that are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in our share price. We expect the variability of the above charges could have a significant and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future U.S. GAAP financial results.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Included within this press release are the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP net income and Non-GAAP diluted EPS that supplement the Consolidated Statements of Income of The Trade Desk, Inc. (the Company) prepared under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Adjusted EBITDA is earnings before depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, interest expense (income), net and provision for (benefit from) income taxes. Non-GAAP net income excludes charges and the related income tax effects for stock-based compensation. Tax rates on the tax-deductible portions of the stock-based compensation expense approximating 30% have been used in the computation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP amounts for the periods presented herein are provided in schedules accompanying this release and should be considered together with the Consolidated Statements of Income. These non-GAAP measures are not meant as a substitute for GAAP, but are included solely for informational and comparative purposes. The Company's management believes that this information can assist investors in evaluating the Company's operational trends, financial performance, and cash generating capacity. Management believes these non-GAAP measures allow investors to evaluate the Company’s financial performance using some of the same measures as management. However, the non-GAAP financial measures should not be regarded as a replacement for or superior to corresponding, similarly captioned, GAAP measures and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

Forward-Looking Statements
This document contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements relate to expectations concerning matters that (a) are not historical facts, (b) predict or forecast future events or results, or (c) embody assumptions that may prove to have been inaccurate, including statements relating to the industry and market trends, and the Company’s financial targets such as revenue and Adjusted EBITDA. When words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “will”, “outlook” or similar expressions are used, the Company is making forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it cannot give readers any assurance that such expectations will prove correct. These forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those related to the Company’s limited operating history, which makes it difficult to evaluate the Company’s business and prospects, the market for programmatic advertising developing slower or differently than the Company’s expectations, the demands and expectations of clients and the ability to attract and retain clients. The actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of numerous factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. These are disclosed in the Company’s reports filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its most recent Form 10-K and any subsequent filings on Forms 10-Q or 8-K, available at www.sec.gov.
