What this transaction means for investors

DoubleVerify’s stock price performance has been more than a little disappointing. Shares of the software-as-a-service (SaaS) provider have collapsed by about 57% over the past 12 months. Perhaps fearing further losses as new artificial intelligence tools make it easier for businesses to build custom applications and cancel their SaaS subscriptions, Arohi Asset Management completely exited its position.

DoubleVerify expects to release fourth-quarter results after the market closes on Thursday, Feb. 26, 2026. The company’s results during the first nine months of 2025 showed contracting margins that sent investors running for the hills. While top-line revenue grew by 16% year over year, expenses rose even faster, leading to an earnings contraction. During the first nine months of 2025, net income fell by 35% year over year to just $21.3 million.

DoubleVerify is looking forward to increased demand from advertisers who increasingly rely on TV streaming. The company launched its new DV Authentic Streaming TV solution in January.
