Management Commentary

During the fiscal first quarter, we successfully completed the initial phase of our strategic roadmap, which has optimized our operations, solidified our financial foundation, and positioned us to drive scale, capture market share and create even greater value for both our customers and shareholders, said Robert Pons, SeaChange's Executive Chairman. The initial phase of our plan involved refining our growth strategy and technology positioning to capitalize on the explosive growth in video streaming, a market that industry analysts expect to surpass $140 billion in annual revenues by 2026. SeaChange's turnkey enablement platform and advertising insertion technology provides us with a distinct competitive advantage and gives us confidence in our ability to capitalize on streaming industry growth. We are actively marketing our OTT Streaming Platform to cable operators and content owners globally, including film and TV producers, who are looking to launch their own streaming channels and platforms. A major part of our success is expected to come through strategic partners who recognize the value of SeaChange's full stack' streaming enablement platform to seamlessly launch a new streaming service.

SeaChange sits at the epicenter of the video industry's transformation to OTT video streaming services and delivery to the billions of end users globally. Our favorable competitive positioning, robust market dynamics, and performance thus far gives us confidence that fiscal 2022 will be a year of growth and transformation. Longer term, we expect that the successful execution of our strategic roadmap will translate to sustainable growth and consistent profitability in the years ahead.
