NEWTON, Mass.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
TechTarget, Inc. (Nasdaq: TTGT), (“Informa TechTarget” or the “Company”), a leading growth accelerator for the B2B Technology sector, today published preliminary results for the first quarter of 2025, delivering Revenues of $104 million and reaffirming full year expectations for year-on-year growth in Adjusted EBITDA(2).

Gary Nugent, Chief Executive, Informa TechTarget, said:

“We have made good operational progress in the first quarter of 2025 and will continue these efforts throughout our Foundation Year, laying the groundwork to realize the benefits of breadth, scale and diversity created through combination, and positioning the Company for long-term growth.”

Highlights

  • Q1 Preliminary Revenue Performance as Expected: Revenues increased 77% over the prior year period’s reported revenues and declined approximately 6% year-on-year on a Combined Company Basis(3), with run-rate improving into Q2, in line with previous commentary; Mid-single digit revenue decline expected over first six months of the year on a Combined Company basis; Preliminary Q1 Net Income impacted by technical non-cash impairment reflecting difference in current market capitalization versus year-end book value;
  • Accelerated Combination Plan: Early Q1 focus was on combining teams, establishing reporting lines and confirming senior leadership, providing clarity to colleagues as quickly as possible; additionally, we began the process of focusing on our ways of working, including the first steps to harmonize our systems and operational models to enhance collaboration and efficiencies; We expect this work to continue throughout 2025;
  • The Foundation Year: Next phase of Combination Plan focused on consolidating product portfolio, simplifying go-to-market offer and increasing the commercial focus on core growth opportunities, including key client accounts and the CyberSecurity sector;
  • Full Year Expectations Reaffirmed: Targeting broadly flat revenues across 2025, with improving momentum through second half as combined group proposition gains traction in the market; Accelerated approach to combination brings forward synergy targets, underpinning guidance for year-on-year growth in adjusted EBITDA;
  • Long-term Growth Opportunity: We believe underlying demand for efficient, data-driven B2B marketing solutions remains strong, particularly within Enterprise Technology; The scale, breadth and reach of Informa TechTarget creates a unique opportunity to build a leading position in a long-term growth market.

Combined Company measure which represents Informa TechTarget’s performance for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 as if the acquisition of Former TechTarget had occurred on January 1, 2023. Note that it is not necessarily indicative of the performance of Informa TechTarget that may have actually occurred had this been completed on January 1, 2023.

The Company performed broadly as expected with revenues of $104 million, up 77% over the prior year period’s reported revenues, and approximately 6% lower on a Combined Company basis. Our like-for-like performance largely reflected what remains a subdued market backdrop.

In addition, through the early months of the year the Company was focused on its Combination Plan, bringing together colleagues, teams, processes and technology. We approached this at pace to provide certainty as quickly as possible which inevitably created some short-term disruption. However, it enabled the Company to enter the second quarter with clarity on reporting lines and leadership, with a clear road map for further refining the product and go-to-market strategy.

This accelerated approach also enabled us to bring forward the delivery of cost synergies in the first year post-combination and this underpins our guidance for growth in adjusted EBITDA in 2025, even with Combined Company revenues expected to be broadly flat.

The Company is expecting to report a Q1 net loss of $513 million to $545 million, compared to $32 million for the Combined Company in the prior year period, reflecting higher acquisition and integration costs, as well as a $450 million to $475 million non-cash impairment to reflect the Company’s current depressed market capitalization relative to book value at year-end and income tax expense of $25 million to $32 million. Adjusted EBITDA decreased by about $10 million versus the prior year period on a Combined Company basis.

Filing Update and Regaining Compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rules

The Company expects to file its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 with the Securities and Exchange Commission shortly post the July 4th holidays, once all procedures and reviews have been finalized. This should enable the Company to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) regarding adherence to filing requirements, with our second quarter financial results targeted for release on or before August 14, 2025.

The Foundation Year: Combine and Grow

In 2025, we are focused on effectively combining our two legacy businesses and building a strong foundation for future growth, initially targeting three core areas:

1.

Leadership: We moved quickly to appoint the Executive and Senior Leadership teams, securing a balance of experience and knowledge from the legacy Informa Tech and the legacy TechTarget businesses. These appointments enabled us to confirm responsibilities and reporting lines, providing Colleagues with clarity as quickly as possible;

2.

Operating Model: The operating model is being updated post-combination, including:

 

a.

Brand consolidation: We combined the brands within our Intelligence & Advisory offerings (Canalys, ESG, Omdia and Wards) under the Omdia brand, simplifying the offer to customers and freeing up analysts to spend more time in the field;

 

b.

Product positioning: We made an early decision to reposition the NetLine syndicated audience offering to the volume-end of the demand generation market, playing to current market sensitivities and distinguishing it from our other brands;

 

c.

Go-to-Market Focus: We restructured our go-to-market teams to better target major customer accounts, reflecting that half our $20 billion addressable market is accounted for by just 200 companies. We have established dedicated sales and service teams to serve an initial cohort of top accounts, with more to come, facilitating stronger, more personalized relationships, helping us to better identify opportunities to grow and enhance the client experience;

 

 

We have also doubled down on the CyberSecurity sector, a large and growing market where we have established audiences and data (including via Informa PLC’s ownership of the BlackHat brand) but our revenue share remains low;

 

d.

Technology & Data: While broader process and systems integration will be implemented over a longer time frame, we prioritized operationalizing our first party data exchange with Informa PLC, opening up access to its 20 million+ permissioned B2B audience generated by its Live B2B Events portfolio.

3.

Cost synergies: We immediately targeted addressing duplication in administration costs, technology licenses, property and roles. While this created some disruption in the early months of the year, we entered Q2 with greater certainty and now expect to more than double our original Year 1 cost savings goal, targeting a minimum of $10 million operating synergies in 2025.
 

 

This gives us a high degree of confidence we can meet or beat the overall $45 million run rate synergy target by the end of Year 3 ($25 million cost synergies and $20 million revenue synergies).

2025 Outlook Reaffirmed

Our guidance for the full year is unchanged, with a target for broadly flat year-on-year revenues on a Combined Company basis. Following a Q1 revenue decline of approximately 6%, we have seen improving momentum in Q2, leaving revenues down approximately 5% over the first five months of the year, with a similar figure expected at the half year.

We are targeting further sequential improvement through Q3 and Q4 to deliver a broadly flat outcome for the year, with momentum improving as our product initiatives and revitalized go-to-market approach gains further traction with customers.

The accelerated delivery of cost synergies underpins our ambition for positive growth in adjusted EBITDA in 2025, despite broadly flat revenues, with a target to deliver in excess of $85 million for the year.

We anticipate recording a further non-cash goodwill impairment in Q2 2025, reflecting the market uncertainty cited in our previous commentary that persisted through the first half of the year and the technical accounting impact of our depressed market capitalization at the end of the quarter relative to book values. This adjustment will have no impact on our operational performance or cash position.

Our guidance does not assume any marked change in the market environment, with activity expected to remain subdued, as enterprise technology customers continue to limit investments in marketing and sales to prioritize research and development in AI-related initiatives.

Long term growth opportunity

While this market environment is impacting the immediate market opportunity for Informa TechTarget, we remain confident that the breadth and depth of our product offerings can drive market share gains over time, with a range of long-term growth drivers:

  • Enterprise IT market penetration addressing the needs of our clients across their product life cycle through the breadth, reach and scale of our combined products and talent and leveraging our expanded first-party data assets;
  • International expansion to capture approximately 40% of the global market that is estimated to be made up of technology vendors outside the US;
  • Growth in industry B2B tech markets by expanding into adjacent tech-driven markets such as AutoTech, HealthTech, Fintech and others;
  • New product and platform development to deliver richer data-driven insights and deeper market access;
  • Inorganic growth opportunities that further strengthen our market position, supported by our strong balance sheet and cash generation.

We also see AI as a significant opportunity, representing a growing customer market (educating, influencing and targeting buyers of AI-enabled products), a tool to drive efficiency across our operating platform, and a technology to power our content generation strategy and value proposition of our products.

AI is changing how audiences discover information, with a shift from traditional search to AI-enabled platforms. We are therefore strengthening our capabilities in Artificial Intelligence Engine Optimization (AIEO), alongside continuing investment in Search Engine Optimization (SEO), ensuring that our trusted, original, authoritative content is referenced and cited in relevant AI summaries as well as through organic search.

We also continue to invest in our many other audience development and engagement strategies, including the Industry Diveoutbound newsletter model, the BrightTALK and NetLine partnership models, and first party data from Informa PLC, underlining the strength and diversity in our approach to building and nurturing audiences.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release and the accompanying tables include a discussion of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Combined Company Revenue, Combined Company Net Loss, Combined Company Net Loss Margin, Combined Company Adjusted EBITDA and Combined Company Adjusted EBITDA Margin, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures which are provided as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP.

“Adjusted EBITDA” means earnings before net interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation, other income and expenses such as asset impairment and impairment related to goodwill, and costs related to mergers, acquisitions or reduction in forces expenses, if any.

“Adjusted EBITDA Margin” means Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue.

“Combined Company Revenue” means revenue calculated as if the acquisition of Former TechTarget occurred on January 1, 2023. See Footnote 5 of the Company’s Form 10-K for December 31, 2024 for additional information related to our presentation of unaudited supplemental Combined Company financial information.

“Combined Company Net Loss” means net income/loss calculated as if the acquisition of Former TechTarget had occurred on January 1, 2023. See Footnote 5 of the Company’s Form 10-K for December 31, 2024 for additional information related to our presentation of unaudited supplemental Combined Company financial information.

“Combined Company Net Loss Margin” means Combined Company Net Loss divided by Combined Company Revenue.

“Combined Company Adjusted EBITDA” means earnings before net interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation, other income and expenses such as asset impairment and impairment related to goodwill, and costs related to mergers, acquisitions or reduction in forces expenses, if any. See Footnote 5 of the Company’s Form 10-K for December 31, 2024 for additional information related to our presentation of unaudited supplemental Combined Company financial information. The items included in the calculation assume the acquisition of Former TechTarget had occurred on January 1, 2023.

“Combined Company Adjusted EBITDA Margin” means Combined Company Adjusted EBITDA divided by Combined Company Revenue.

These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. In addition, our definitions of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Combined Company Revenue, Combined Company Net Loss, Combined Company Net Loss Margin, Combined Company Adjusted EBITDA and Combined Company Adjusted EBITDA Margin, may not be comparable to the definitions as reported by other companies. We believe that these measures provide relevant and useful information to enable us and investors to compare our operating performance using an additional measurement. We use these measures in our internal management reporting and planning process as primary measures to evaluate the operating performance of our business, as well as potential acquisitions.

Combined Company measures are provided to assist our investors in further comparing our performance as if the acquisition of Former TechTarget occurred on January 1, 2023. The components of Adjusted EBITDA and Combined Company Adjusted EBITDA include the key revenue and expense items for which our operating managers are responsible and upon which we evaluate their performance. Adjusted EBITDA is also used in presentations to our Board of Directors. Furthermore, we intend to provide these non-GAAP financial measures as part of our future earnings discussions and, therefore, the inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures will provide consistency in our financial reporting. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to GAAP is provided in the accompanying tables, except that full reconciliations of certain forward-looking non-GAAP measures are not provided because the Company is unable to provide such reconciliations without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting the occurrence and financial impact of certain significant items. These items include, but are not limited to, acquisition and integration costs, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and other expenses, asset impairment, and the income tax effect of these items. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, including, but not limited to, our recent acquisition of Former TechTarget and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results for the relevant period.
