The company has an impressive earnings surprise history. It outperformed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in two of the four trailing quarters, matched once and missed once, delivering an earnings surprise of 70.2% on average.
Direct Digital Holdings, Inc. Price and EPS Surprise
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the top line in the to-be-reported quarter is currently pegged at $66 million, indicating more than 100% growth from the year-ago actual figure. We believe Direct Digital’s demand environment has stayed healthy in the quarter and the company’s technology partnerships and investments in operational structure and advertising platform have well-catered to the increasing demand.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the bottom line is pegged at 28 cents, indicating more than 100% year-over-year growth. We are expecting increased spend from the company’s buying partners in the quarter, thereby increasing impression count and organic growth and positively impacting net income and adjusted EBITDA.
What Our Model Says
Our proven model does not conclusively predict an earnings beat for DRCT this time around. The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat. But that’s not the case here. You can uncover the best stocks before they're reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
