Brightcove Announces Financial Results for Second Quarter 2015 July 30, 2015 / Brightcove Press Release
Company reports adjusted EBITDA of $620,000
BOSTON, MA (July 30, 2015) Brightcove Inc. (Nasdaq: BCOV), a leading global provider of cloud services for video, today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2015.
Brightcove reported second quarter results that were in-line with our profitability expectations, while revenue was slightly below expectations due to the timing of certain customer renewals, said David Mendels, Chief Executive Officer of Brightcove. We are delivering positive performance in many areas of the company, especially in North America and Japan, though we have seen some softness in our European business. We have taken steps to improve our execution in Europe and believe they will improve results going forward.
Mendels continued, From a demand perspective, our digital marketing business is gaining traction, reflecting the significant opportunity for video as part of the cloud marketing automation stack. We are also seeing early interest from Media companies in our ad yield optimization solution that combines Brightcove Perform and Brightcove Once to significantly improve content monetization. We remain confident our strategy can deliver consistent double-digit growth in the future, while also generating strong shareholder value.
