“Our solid fourth quarter results cap off a compelling year of top-line growth. SaaS bookings drove our double digit Annual Recurring Revenue growth for the year and resulted in SaaS revenue growth of 47% on a constant currency basis. We are proud of our performance as the pandemic headwinds begin to subside and the potential emergence of tailwinds position us for continued growth well into the future.” said Peter Brereton, president and Chief Executive Officer of Tecsys Inc. “Healthcare continues to be a significant contributor as we added another two networks in the quarter for a total of eight in the fiscal year. The rising adoption of our agile end-to-end SaaS supply chain solutions by leading companies as the vendor of choice cements the important role we play in their digital transformation journeys and validates our strategy as well poised for continued success.”
Mark Bentler, chief financial officer of Tecsys Inc., added, “Looking ahead, we believe our evolution as a SaaS company and our drive to expand our partner ecosystem will continue to have an impact on our revenue mix. From an investment standpoint, we believe our existing professional services capacity is adequate for the near term. We believe that our prior investments in sales and marketing put us in a solid position to grow as productivity continues to improve. Our investment in research and development during the fourth quarter will impact Q1 of fiscal 2023, but we expect investment to moderate beyond that point.”
