Google Antitrust Ruling and Potential Market Share Shift

Magnite views the DOJ's antitrust ruling against Google as a potential game-changer that could significantly benefit its market position.
The court found Google engaged in illegal monopolistic practices, which could lead to remedies including divestiture of Google's SSP and ad server.
Magnite estimates that a 1% market share shift from Google could result in an additional $50 million contribution ex-TAC annually.
The company is preparing for the remedy phase starting September 22, with potential for early market share gains in 2026.
Magnite believes that any remedies that level the playing field will enhance its ability to monetize publisher inventory.
Management sees the ruling as a rare opportunity to increase demand and demand share in the open ad ecosystem.
