(NASDAQ: SEAC), ( SeaChange or the Company ) a leading provider of video delivery, advertising, and emerging streaming platforms, today reported financial and operational results for the fiscal fourth quarter and full-year ended January 31, 2022.

Secured new business with a North American cable operator that will use SeaChange's Advanced Advertising Solution to manage its broadcast insertion workflows.

Commenced onboarding process with two new StreamVid customers, expecting to provide long-term, high-margin SaaS revenue.

Launched the Xstream platform, a new product line that combines SeaChange's Streaming and AdTech capabilities, focused on delivering and monetizing content via FAST channels on Connected TVs.

Recent Highlights & Significant Event

Entered into a cooperation agreement in April 2022 with VIDAA, Inc, a leading provider of TV operating systems for Connected TVs by Hisense and others, to jointly develop streaming, FAST and AVOD solutions for VIDAA tv.

Entered into a definitive agreement and plan of merger with Triller Hold Co LLC on December 22, 2021.

Management Commentary

We wrapped up our fiscal 2022 on a high note, generating 20% sequential revenue growth and positive non-GAAP operating income, as we benefitted from a $2 million one-time Tier 1 operator deal, said SeaChange's President and Chief Executive Officer, Peter D. Aquino. We continue to drive positive momentum in our core business with healthy revenue growth and a moderating operating expense profile, which is driving our business towards a more sustainable cash flow position. Additionally, in April, we signed an exciting software development agreement with VIDAA for their FAST channel and AVOD solution for its growing business. We are looking forward to a successful partnership.
