Perion Network Ltd. helps brands reach audiences and manage advertising campaigns across websites, connected TVs and digital outdoor screens. Most revenue comes from Advertising Solutions. Its Perion One platform executes campaigns, while its Outmax AI agent allocates spending and adjusts delivery as campaigns run. Agencies and advertising-buying or selling platforms are its main advertising customers; Perion generally bills these intermediaries rather than the brands they represent. It also helps publishers and media owners sell advertising space.
A smaller business earns search advertising fees. Publishers and app developers incorporate Perion’s search offerings into their products, and search partners pay Perion fees tied to transaction volume and the advertising revenue generated, under revenue-sharing arrangements. Following the end of its former Microsoft Bing arrangement, Perion is transitioning this business primarily to Yahoo and expects that relationship to supply nearly all future search revenue.
The advertising business depends on continued customer spending, access to media owners’ advertising space and data for targeting and measurement. Customers generally have no long-term or exclusive commitments and can reduce or cancel spending. Privacy rules restrict the data Perion can use, and it often relies on publishers, customers and data providers to obtain the necessary consent. The search business also depends on publisher traffic and the search partner’s pricing and distribution rules.
The risk section is the longest, dullest part of the filing. This keeps only what can really hurt you: where it hits, how hard, when it plays out.
Every company claims an edge. Each one is checked against hard numbers like margins and returns: which hold, and which line gives way first.
Perion’s results hinge on digital advertising demand and campaign execution, while its remaining search business increasingly depends on Yahoo after its Bing agreement ended.
PubMatic competes with Perion to help web and connected-TV publishers earn money from advertising, charging publishers a share of the value of ads sold through its platform. Its business with those publishers is the part to watch for competition facing Perion’s publisher monetization services.
Quantum X Labs’ Gix Media business competes with Perion to send user searches to search engines, which pay them a share of the resulting advertising revenue. Gix Media’s revenue from Yahoo is particularly relevant as Perion shifts its search business primarily to Yahoo from 2026.
Alphabet’s Google competes with Perion for advertisers’ spending and for business helping publishers earn money from search, web and video ads. Google’s advertising revenue from Search, YouTube and partner websites is the relevant comparison for Perion’s campaign and publisher services.
Meta Platforms competes with Perion for advertisers paying to generate leads or build brand awareness: Meta sells ad placements in its apps, while Perion runs campaigns across digital channels. Watch Meta’s Family of Apps advertising revenue, the business competing for those budgets.
Amazon’s advertising platform competes with Perion for advertisers’ budgets for retail media, automated ad buying and connected-TV campaigns.
Meta Platforms, Inc. earningsMETA
Meta Platforms’ report will show whether advertisers are still spending on ads in its apps, a demand signal for Perion as it competes for brand and lead-generation budgets.
Look at advertising revenue from Meta Platforms’ apps. Growth would show advertisers are still paying to reach people through this channel, supporting the budget environment Perion competes in for brand and lead campaigns. Weakness would point to more cautious spending in that channel and greater pressure on Perion to win campaign budgets.
Alphabet Inc. earningsGOOG
Google’s report will show how advertising revenue from Search, YouTube and partner websites is changing, giving a read on the market where Perion competes for ad budgets and helps publishers earn from ads.
Read Google’s Search, YouTube and partner-site advertising revenue separately. Growth across them would show advertisers are spending in these channels and demand remains for website advertising. If partner-site revenue weakens while Search or YouTube grows, more of the spending may be staying on Google’s own platforms, so pressure on the publisher and advertising services Perion provides may persist.
PubMatic, Inc. earningsPUBM
PubMatic’s report will show how its platform business helping web and connected-TV publishers sell ads is changing, directly overlapping with Perion’s publisher monetization services.
Look at PubMatic’s platform business, including its connected-TV activity. Strength would show publishers are still monetizing ads through platforms and competition for publisher inventory and ad value remains active. Weakness could point to softer monetization activity in those channels and a cooler market for Perion’s publisher services.

Perion needs Advertising Solutions to make up for shrinking Search Advertising, and this report will show whether that revenue is growing without campaign costs swallowing the gains.
Read Advertising Solutions and Search Advertising revenue together, then compare cost of revenue and traffic-acquisition and media-buying costs as shares of revenue. Growing Advertising Solutions, a narrowing Search decline and steady or lower cost shares would show the newer business is filling the gap and more revenue is carrying through to operations. Slowing Advertising Solutions or a continuing sharp Search decline alongside rising cost shares would show the replacement revenue is insufficient or costing more to deliver.
