Zeta Global Holdings Corp. (ZETA) stock plunged 10.92% in pre-market trading on Wednesday after the marketing technology company reported mixed fourth-quarter results and issued a disappointing guidance for the first quarter of 2025.
While Zeta Global's Q4 2024 revenue of $314.7 million surpassed analyst estimates of $295 million, the company missed expectations on the earnings front. Zeta reported adjusted earnings per share of $0.20, falling short of the consensus estimate of $0.23 per share.
Furthermore, Zeta Global's guidance for Q1 2025 revenue of $253 million to $255 million fell slightly below Wall Street's expectations of $254.1 million. This revenue guidance for the next quarter, combined with the company's full-year 2025 revenue growth forecast of 23.3%, suggests a significant slowdown in demand compared to the previous year's 37% growth rate.
