So what
Third-quarter revenue was $16.6 million, up 23% year over year. This was in line with analysts' consensus forecast. Telaria's loss per share was $0.06; analysts on average expect a loss per share of $0.05.
A bright spot in the quarter was the company's 115% year-over-year increase in connected TV (CTV) revenue, which accounted for 44% of the period's revenue, up from 25% in the year-ago quarter. This was good news given that the company's aim is to become primarily focused on CTV.
Now what
For the full year, management said it expected revenue in a range of $69 million to $71 million. The midpoint of this guidance is slightly ahead of analysts' average forecast for full-year revenue of $69.8 million.
