The Trade Desk (ISIN US88339J1051) was trading at EUR 11.51 at Lang & Schwarz on October 27, 2026 at 2:06 p.m. CET. The advertising technology company is approaching its next results after guiding for third-quarter revenue of at least USD 650 million, a figure that puts slower growth at the center of the stock story.

Q2 growth slowed to 3.00 percent

In the second quarter of 2026, The Trade Desk generated USD 715.06 million in revenue, up 3.00 percent from the same period a year earlier, while net income reached USD 64.39 million and diluted earnings per share were USD 0.14, according to Benzinga on October 13, 2026.

The comparison with the prior year is important because revenue growth had been materially faster before the June quarter. Operating profit also declined to USD 101.6 million from USD 116.8 million, according to Buy Me Whiskey in its October 26, 2026 update.

What does the next quarter need?

Management's third-quarter outlook calls for revenue of at least USD 650 million and adjusted EBITDA of approximately USD 160 million, versus USD 241 million in the second quarter. The guidance assumes no meaningful improvement in the advertising environment, according to Benzinga.

The next reporting date is listed as November 5, 2026, by Buy Me Whiskey. For investors, the key comparison will be whether revenue clears the USD 650 million floor while adjusted EBITDA stays near the USD 160 million outlook.

Valuation reflects the reset

The Trade Desk had a market capitalization of USD 5.95 billion on October 21, 2026, while its reported 52-week range in US trading was USD 11.62 to USD 55.11. Its Nasdaq listing gives the November update particular importance because the company now has to show that its advertising platform can regain growth after the second-quarter slowdown.

The stock was trading at EUR 11.51 at Lang & Schwarz on October 27, 2026 at 2:06 p.m. CET. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of The Trade Desk stock.
