They also wrote that six of the largest 10 advertising countries are "currently COVID-19 hotspots."
The analysts lowered their March quarter and June quarter revenue and earnings per share estimates, but said they were not making revisions to estimates for the second half of 2020 or for 2021 since they expect the coronavirus crisis to calm down by mid-June.
