New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: €5.0m This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (10% average weekly change). Minor Risk Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (€5.0m sold). Aankondiging • Jun 03

New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of Italian stocks, typically moving 8.3% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. It may also indicate the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Reported Earnings • Feb 26

The Trade Desk Announces Major Overhaul of Digital Advertising Data Marketplace The Trade Desk announced plans to launch Audience Unlimited - a major upgrade to the marketplace for third-party data within digital advertising. Third-party data helps advertisers optimize their campaigns and reach their target audience with greater precision, but advertisers have often been reluctant to deploy it because of both cost and the challenge of determining which data sources are likely to be most effective. As a result, many advertisers do not regularly use third-party data, and those that do typically invest nearly 20% of their media costs on it. Audience Unlimited removes these two obstacles for advertisers. Audience Unlimited will leverage AI to score data segments by relevance to an advertiser's campaign, across thousands of curated segments from hundreds of trusted, privacy-conscious third-party data providers. Advertisers will then be able to add all the relevant data sources to their campaigns for a much lower, inclusive cost than traditional a la carte data pricing. With consistent pricing and seamless integration, advertisers can now activate precision targeting at scale with third-party data without the complexity of unpredictable costs or reconciliation challenges. In order to help advertisers take full advantage of Audience Unlimited, The Trade Desk will introduce new Koa Adaptive Trading Modes, giving advertisers flexibility to adapt Kokai based on campaign strategy and requirements. Advertisers will be able to choose between two distinct modes, both powered by advanced agentic AI. Performance Mode: In Performance Mode, Koa acts as a full co-pilot, dynamically optimizing bids and allocation to maximize efficiency and performance. Advertisers set the overall strategy and guardrails, and agentic AI continuously finds the most value within them. All optimizations remain fully transparent, with visibility into the changes Koa makes and the ability to override bid factors at any time. Performance Mode also brings together the full power of The Trade Desk's innovations -- including Audience Unlimited, Predive Clearing, Identity Alliance, Prism, and free measurement -- which are continuously optimized to work in concert. Control Mode: In Control Mode, traders manually manage bids, allocation, and optimizations, with full flexibility to structure campaigns according to their needs. Agentic AI still surfaces recommendations and opportunities, but traders decide when and how to activate them across individual tiles (e.g., Geography, Device Type, Ad Format, and more). Performance features are available and priced a la carte in this mode, giving advertisers the ability to select which capabilities to apply to each campaign. Control Mode is best for campaigns that must adhere to a detailed plan or strict pricing requirements. To leverage Audience Unlimited, advertisers will pay tiered rates of 3.3% and 4.4% of impression costs within Control Mode. In Performance Mode, Audience Unlimited is included at no additional cost. In addition, advertisers will still be able to apply data with a la carte pricing if they so choose. Aankondiging • Sep 25
Acxiom Launches 'True Intelligence' to Revolutionize Digital and CTV Advertising Measurement in Partnership with the Trade Desk Acxiom announced the launch of 'True Intelligence,' a new measurement solution designed to provide marketers with deeper insights into the real-world impact of their digital and connected TV (CTV) advertising. This solution combines the power of Interpublic's Interact operating system - powered by Acxiom - and Acxiom's Real ID with The Trade Desk's media buying platform, Kokai, to deliver precise measurement of advertising effectiveness combined with durable solutions like Unified ID 2.0 (UID2). Acxiom's Real ID provides connected identity resolution across the marketing ecosystem to enhance CX across channels, realize AI potential, and improve business growth - all with privacy and compliance standards in mind. UID2 is an open-source identity framework designed to maintain relevant advertising across the open internet. Acxiom's adoption of UID2 allows it to translate between Real ID and UID2. For years, marketers have struggled to accurately measure the true incremental impact of their digital and CTV advertising on both online and offline sales. Traditional methods often fall short, either by failing to measure incrementality holistically, not including both online and offline conversions, or requiring extensive client first-party data. 'True Intelligence' addresses this challenge with a comprehensive solution that goes beyond basic attribution and measures real business outcomes. Key Features and Benefits: Proven Incrementality, Beyond Attribution: 'True Intelligence' moves beyond last-touch attribution to measure the true incremental impact of digital and CTV advertising on Both online and offline sales. This allows advertisers to more confidently determine if a campaign drove new business and through which channels. Closed-Loop, Precise-Level Measurement: Leveraging Acxiom's Real ID and privacy-conscious clean room environments, 'True Intelligence' enables advertisers to match ad exposure data to individual-level conversions. This provides visibility from initial ad impression to final transaction, reducing reliance on extensive first-party data. Smarter Audience Development and Optimization: Through machine learning-powered audience modeling and access to comprehensive exposure log files, advertisers can identify, scale, and optimize high value audiences (HVAs). This can deliver actionable insights into campaign performance, including audience, creative, frequency, and media type, helping lead to higher ROI and more efficient media spend. The 'True Intelligence' solution is adaptable to different levels of data maturity and privacy settings. Brands can use their own first-party data or Acxiom data to identify audiences, which are then activated through The Trade Desk's Kokai platform. Post- campaign, exposure log files from The Trade Desk via UID2 and client conversion data are matched to the audiences using Acxiom's Real ID, enabling precise, audience-level measurement of incremental lift by comparing exposed audiences to a hold-out group. The solution is also adaptable based on a brand's analytics capabilities. For brands lacking internal analytics resources, Acxiom Analytics Services can provide tailored support, scaling up or down to meet the needs of each client. For clients with advanced analytics capabilities, 'True Intelligence' provides a privacy-conscious analytics environment, allowing multiple publishers to send exposure log files, which are then matched to client first-party data for comprehensive closed-loop measurement.

The Trade Desk to Launch Deal Desk - A Revolutionary Approach to Understanding and Managing Digital Advertising Deal Performance The Trade Desk announced Deal Desk, a transformational new pillar of its Kokai platform that enables advertisers to manage their strategic one-to-one deals and upfront commitments with publishers. Deal Desk gives both advertisers and publishers unprecedented transparency and insight into the performance, quality, and pacing of their deals, and showcases premium internet alternatives when deals underperform. Digital advertising deals between advertisers and publishers, as well as inventory aggregators, command a large percentage of programmatic spend, but many deals underperform due to lack of visibility into impression quality and pacing. In an industry first, Deal Desk leverages advanced AI to help advertisers and publishers understand deal performance, so they can address campaign optimization. Deal Desk also helps advertisers consider premium internet alternatives in the open market or in premium marketplaces such as the Sellers and Publishers 500 Plus. Deal Desk incorporates a range of powerful new features and innovations, including: Advertisers can inspect the health and value of their deals, using Deal Quality Scores to understand when a deal offers unique value for their campaigns and when they can find better value in the open marketplace. Publishers can use new APIs or a UI to propose deals that fully describe their inventory with rich metadata and clearly defined terms. They can use the same Deal Quality Scores their buyers see to gain insight into the market for their inventory and discover actionable recommendations to help improve the value of their deals. Deal Desk will help automate deal activation and prioritization so that both advertisers and publishers can spend less time troubleshooting pacing and more time on strategic analysis and optimizations. New built-in expansion and cancelation features create mutual accountability and help advertisers easily include more relevant inventory when a deal is unable to deliver within the original terms. Initial publishers who have adopted Deal Desk for their private marketplace deals include industry leaders such as Disney. Aankondiging • May 15
