Magnite's MGNI shares have soared 30.9% over the past three months, outperforming the Zacks Computer and Technology sector’s appreciation of 5.5% and the Zacks Internet – Software industry’s return of 4%.

MGNI's shares have also outperformed its peers like Amazon, Alphabet and Microsoft MSFT, which have gained 18.1%, 13.4% and 0.6%, respectively, in the same time frame.

MGNI’s remarkable performance can be attributed to growth in its Connected TV (CTV) segment, strategic partnerships with industry leaders and the success of its self-service platform, ClearLine.

MGNI’s CTV and Strategic Partnerships Drive Strong Growth

MGNI is benefiting from robust growth in CTV, with contributions excluding Traffic Acquisition Costs (ex-TAC) from CTV increasing 23% year over year in third-quarter 2024. The growth is being driven by increased ad spend, programmatic adoption by industry giants like Roku, Disney DIS, Warner Bros. Discovery and LG, and significant contributions from political advertising.

MGNI’s self-service platform, ClearLine, continues to gain momentum with over 20 agencies and brands actively leveraging its features. Innovations like the SpringServe and Magnite streaming SSP combination are making the company poised as a programmatic-first partner in the industry.

Strategic partnerships with Netflix NFLX and Disney further strengthen MGNI’s market position. Its expanded deal with Disney now includes live sports, international markets and podcasts, with Disney inventory also integrated into ClearLine.

MGNI’s partnership with Netflix is also expanding as the platform is rolling out Magnite-powered programmatic solutions, which is expected to substantially boost revenues in 2025.
