3 weeks agoYouTube Ad Revenue Hits Record $11.38 Billion in Q4, but Falls Short of Expectations
YouTube continues to vacuum up digital advertising dollars, mostly at the expense of traditional TV ad budgets, notching its biggest-ever ad sales number to date for the fourth quarter of 2025. However, the video giant's ad haul came in below Wall Street forecasts. In the last three months of the year, YouTube's global ad revenue totaled $11.38 billion, a year-over-year increase of 8.7%, parent company Alphabet reported. Wall Street analysts on average forecast YouTube ad revenue coming in at $11.84 billion, per StreetAccount.
