Description: PUBM Pubmatic October 23, 2025

PubMatic, Inc. (NASDAQ: PUBM) operates a cloud-based infrastructure that powers real-time programmatic advertising for publishers and buyers worldwide. Its flagship Sell-Side Platform (SSP) enables the automated sale of digital inventory, while complementary solutions such as OpenWrap (header bidding), Connect (data insights), Activate (direct-deal execution), Convert (commerce-media), and Identity Hub (alternative ID management) expand the ecosystem across formats-including mobile, desktop, video, OTT, and CTV.

In FY 2023 the company generated roughly $400 million in revenue, up about 10 % year-over-year, driven by strong growth in CTV and video inventory that now represents ~30 % of total spend. Gross margins hovered near 55 %, and the balance sheet held >$300 million in cash and marketable securities, providing runway for continued product investment. The broader programmatic advertising market is expanding at a 12-15 % CAGR, propelled by advertiser demand for data-rich, automated buying and by privacy-driven shifts toward first-party data solutions-both of which align with PubMatic’s technology stack.

If you’re looking to dig deeper into PubMatic’s valuation metrics and scenario analysis, the ValueRay platform offers a transparent, data-first toolkit that can help you model upside and downside cases.
