Pinterest has raised its first-quarter revenue forecast following the integration of connected-TV advertising platform tvScientific into its business.
The company now expects revenue between $958 million and $978 million for the current quarter, up from its previous estimate of $951 million to $971 million. The revised midpoint sits above analysts’ expectations of $964.9 million.
The improved outlook reflects financial contributions from tvScientific, which Pinterest acquired in December 2025. The platform enables outcome-based advertising on connected TVs and is being integrated into Pinterest’s Performance+ AI tools to strengthen automated media buying and cross-screen campaign optimization.
Despite the higher revenue forecast, Pinterest lowered its adjusted EBITDA projection to between $163 million and $183 million due to integration costs and upfront investments related to the acquisition.
The update comes after a volatile period for Pinterest shares, which recently declined amid concerns about tariffs affecting major retailers and potential pullbacks in advertising spending.
By bringing tvScientific into its ecosystem, Pinterest aims to expand its AI-driven advertising capabilities and strengthen its position in the increasingly competitive digital advertising market.
