Revenue grew 6.4% year-over-year to $522.31 million, missing the $537.80 million consensus by 2.88%, while earnings per share of $0.17 came in just below the $0.18 estimate, a gap of 3.79%. The primary culprit was traffic acquisition costs, which climbed to $313.60 million from $279.82 million a year ago, compressing gross profit to $175.57 million and pushing Adjusted EBITDA down 6.6% to $86.15 million for the quarter. On the positive side, Taboola swung to full-year GAAP net income of $42.28 million, compared to a net loss of $3.76 million in fiscal 2024, reflecting improved operating leverage and a favorable tax benefit. With some analysts flagging the stock as potentially undervalued following the selloff, investor attention now turns to 2026 guidance calling for revenues of $1.99 billion to $2.05 billion and Adjusted EBITDA of $222 million to $236 million, suggesting the company expects measured momentum ahead.

“2025 was not just about beating guidance - it was a turning point for Taboola and validation that Realize is working. We accelerated growth throughout the year, improved advertiser outcomes, generated strong free cash flow, and reduced our share count by 18%, all while continuing to invest heavily in AI-driven innovation. As Realize gains traction, our proprietary intent data and deep distribution across the open web increasingly differentiate us in an AI-driven world. We believe these structural advantages in data and distribution position Taboola to build the leading performance advertising company beyond Search and Social and drive long-term expansion.”
