History

Perion was founded in 1999 by cousins Yaron and Ofer Adler. Soon after its founding, they raised $3.3 million in funding from private and institutional investors. The company went public on Nasdaq in January 2006 and was listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange in 2007.

Perion was under the management of its original founders until August 2010, when Josef Mandelbaum was appointed CEO.

In November 2011, the company rebranded to Perion, deriving its name from the Hebrew word for productivity.

2014–2017

In July 2014, Perion collaborated with CYREN, a provider of cloud-based security services, to enhance Perion's security and browsing applications.

In August 2014, Perion extended its agreement with Microsoft's Bing search service, powering search in Perion products for desktop and mobile platforms.

In September 2016, Josef Mandelbaum stepped down as CEO of Perion. During his tenure, Perion grew from a single-product company with an annual revenue of $29 million to over $300 million.

In April 2017, Doron Gerstel assumed the role of CEO. Under his leadership, Perion took initiatives to minimize the company's debt and enhance its "operational efficiency". This period also saw the company broaden its reach into the digital television advertising sector.

2018–2020

In October 2018, Perion's platform, MakeMeReach, received Google certification.

In November 2020, CodeFuel, Perion's Search Technology division, entered into a four-year partnership with Microsoft Advertising.

2021–2022

In September 2021, MakeMeReach, a subsidiary of Perion, formed a partnership with Pinterest, allowing ad purchasing and data integration from major social platforms and Google.

In February 2022, Perion received the Microsoft Supply Partner of the Year Advertising Award.

In August 2022, Perion received the Stevie Award in the artificial intelligence category.

In September 2022, Perion disclosed the results of a digital advertising campaign for Mercedes-Benz USA, noting a successful implementation of the cookieless strategy.

2023–2024

In February 2023, it was announced that Doron Gerstel would be stepping down as the CEO of the company and would be succeeded by Tal Jacobson, effective from 1 August 2023.

In June 2024, Perion announced significant layoffs as part of a cost-cutting initiative. The decision came after Microsoft's further actions to completely remove several advertisers from its Bing network, which severely harmed Perion's revenues. As a result, Perion decided to eliminate 35 jobs, primarily within its search division in Israel. This reduction represented 15% of the company's Israeli workforce, which numbered 230 employees out of a total of 650 globally.

The impact of Microsoft's decisions was substantial, with Perion's revenue from its collaboration with Microsoft projected to fall to less than 5% of its total revenue in the latter half of 2024. Previously, revenue from Bing had formed a substantial part of Perion's income. For the second quarter of 2024, Perion's revenues were anticipated to be between $106 million and $108 million, with annual revenues expected to decrease to approximately half a billion dollars.
