PubMatic, Inc. reported its financial results for the second quarter of 2026, revealing a revenue increase of 11% year-over-year, reaching $78.6 million compared to $71.1 million in the same period of 2025. For the first half of 2026, revenue totaled $141.2 million, a 5% increase from $134.9 million in the prior year. The company achieved a gross profit of $52.7 million for the quarter, up from $44.5 million a year earlier, resulting in a gross margin of 67%, compared to 63% in the previous year. Despite these gains, PubMatic reported a net loss of $1.2 million for the quarter, an improvement from a loss of $5.2 million in Q2 2025.

The company’s operating expenses rose to $52.1 million in the second quarter, up from $49.9 million in the same period last year, primarily driven by increased sales and marketing costs. Operating income for the quarter was $579,000, a significant turnaround from an operating loss of $5.5 million in Q2 2025. The improved financial performance is attributed to a rise in impressions processed on its platform, particularly in connected TV (CTV) and mobile app segments, as well as the expansion of customer relationships.

As of June 30, 2026, PubMatic served approximately 2,000 publishers and app developers, an increase from about 1,960 a year prior. The company also reported a net dollar-based retention rate of 98% for the trailing twelve months, down from 102% in the previous year, indicating a slight decline in revenue growth from existing customers. The company continues to focus on expanding its Supply Path Optimization (SPO) agreements, which accounted for over 55% of total activity in the second quarter.

In terms of cash flow, PubMatic generated $37.5 million from operating activities in the first half of 2026, compared to $30.5 million in the same period of 2025. The company’s cash and cash equivalents decreased to $120 million as of June 30, 2026, down from $145.5 million at the end of 2025. The decrease is attributed to share repurchases totaling $30.5 million during the first half of the year. Looking ahead, PubMatic anticipates continued revenue growth driven by its CTV and mobile app segments, while also planning to invest in technology and development to enhance its platform capabilities.
