BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul. 22, 2020-- Brightcove Inc. (Nasdaq: BCOV), the world's leading video technology platform, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020.
Brightcove delivered strong second quarter results that were well ahead of expectations on both the top and bottom line. We had an excellent sales quarter to both new and existing customers, demonstrating that our investments in our products, sales and marketing, and our go-to-market efforts are paying off, said Jeff Ray, Brightcove's Chief Executive Officer.
Ray added, Video has become increasingly strategic to enterprises, who are at the early stages of mass video adoption in their operations. We are seeing a clear shift in the use of video in the enterprise, as organizations are now looking for media grade solutions, where Brightcove is well positioned to deliver. Based on our second quarter performance and visibility into the second half of the year, we are reinstituting full-year financial guidance.
