Zeta Global Clarification on WhatCounts Acquisition<\/b><\/p>\n

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nZeta Global (NYSE:ZETA), the AI-Powered Marketing Cloud, today issued a clarification regarding the previously announced acquisition of the WhatCounts business. On March 1, 2023, Zeta entered into an agreement to purchase certain assets of WhatCounts, Inc., including customer contracts, technology assets, and certain employees.<\/p>\n

\nIn 1Q\u201923, the acquisition accounted for approximately $0.8 million of revenue, accounting for one-half of a point of year-over-year revenue growth in the quarter. Our organic growth, excluding the acquisition, was greater than 24% year-over-year. For FY\u201923, we expect the WhatCounts contribution to be less than $4 million for the remainder of the year due to known expiration and termination of significant customer contracts.<\/p>\n

\nThe primary purpose of the WhatCounts acquisition was to acquire technology assets and certain employees. We believe we can get significant synergies from integrating their Email Service Platform (\u201cESP\u201d). In doing so, we think we can take their current customers as well as our existing customers and get them to be more significant over time.<\/p>\n
