New West Capital Kyle Tushaus | “You have a few companies, namely Magnite (MGNI) and PubMatic (PUBM), that have been forced to operate and grow in the shadow of Google's ad tech dominance. If Google is required to cease its monopolistic behavior and cede market share to them, given their already established (albeit small) market positions these companies will be able to convert that additional revenue at a higher rate than the revenue it took them to get them to where they are now. Said simply, a very high proportion of each new revenue dollar will find its way to the EBITDA or Operating Income line. And given their relatively small market share, any boost is a material shift in the company's economic value creation ability. Read that as “multibagger.” BSD Analysis: PubMatic has differentiated itself with an owned infrastructure model that supports healthy gross margins and solid free-cash-flow conversion for a company of its size. Revenue growth has moderated from its post-pandemic surge but remains tied to secular digital and CTV ad expansion rather than purely cyclical factors. The company carries net cash, giving it flexibility to invest through downturns and potentially return capital if growth reaccelerates. Its shares trade at a discount to larger adtech platforms despite similar or better balance sheet strength and exposure to structurally growing formats. A favorable outcome from the Google case, ongoing publisher consolidation onto fewer SSPs, and rising programmatic penetration in CTV are all possible catalysts. Risks include competitive pressure from larger platforms, further signal loss from privacy changes, and sensitivity to macro-driven ad spending.” | BULL | Q2 2025 Jul 14, 2025 | View Pitch |
