Fourth Quarter 2014*: The Company expects revenue to be $30.3 million to $30.8 million, and non-GAAP loss from operations to be $2.2 million to $2.5 million. Assuming approximately 32.4 million shares outstanding, Brightcove expects its non-GAAP net loss per basic and diluted share to be $0.08 to $0.09.
Full Year 2014*: The Company now expects revenue to be $123.9 million to $124.4 million, and non-GAAP loss from operations is expected to be $3.8 million to $4.1 million.
