Pinterest, a publicly owned company headquartered in the US, was founded in 2010, employs approximately 7,860 individuals, and reported $3.6B in revenue as of 2024. The company's primary offerings include search, social, and retail media. Functioning as an American image sharing and social media service, Pinterest is designed to enable the saving and discovery of information on the internet. This includes content such as recipes, home decor, style guides, motivation, and general inspiration, primarily utilizing images and, to a lesser extent, animated GIFs and videos, all organized in the form of pinboards.
Benjamin Silbermann, a 10% Owner Director, sold 93,750 shares in Pinterest on July 7, 2026, for $2,102,508, and following the SEC filing, he directly controls 13,996 Class A common shares. On July 9, tvScientific by Pinterest, the company's performance TV ad platform, rolled out its Certified Measurement Partner Program as Pinterest increasingly focuses on TV as a significant opportunity. Earlier the same day, Pinterest terminated its $89.5 million lease for a San Francisco office development, a decision signaling a turning point for the city's real estate and tech industries. This follows the company's reclassification on July 7, when it was removed from several Russell growth benchmarks and added to the Russell 2500 and Russell 2500 Value indices, indicating a shift in how index providers classify its profile from growth to value.
