A handful of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) companies that I have a vested interest in released their quarterly results in the past few weeks.
Here’s a quick round-up on their performance and some insights from management.
Zoom Video Communications (NASDAQ: ZM)
The video conferencing leader continued to report healthy growth. In the three months ended 31 July 2021, it saw 54% year-on-year revenue growth on top of the 355% growth it enjoyed in the corresponding quarter a year ago. On a sequential basis, Zoom reported 6.8% revenue growth.
Zoom’s free cash flow margin for the latest quarter was an excellent 44% and the company is now sitting on more than US$5 billion in net cash. Although management expects some churn in its SMB (small, medium businesses) online segment, Zoom still seems to be in a high growth phase as its net dollar expansion rate continues to be above 130%.
