Veritone 3rd Quarter Financial and Business Highlights
In Q3 2023, the company’s revenue was $35.1 Million, which is a decline of 6% year on year. The decline was primarily due to decreases in managed services and software products. The software revenues decreased by $8.2 Million or 29% compared to adjusted software products and services revenue for Q3 2022.
This was largely driven by reduced spend from Amazon in Q3 2023. Moreover, the managed services revenue was $14.8 Million, down from $16.4 Million. Furthermore, total software products & services customers decreased by 7% in this period.
The decrease was largely driven by the planned migration of legacy CareerBuilder customers off the Broadbean software platform. Not every measure was negative for Veritone, the total new bookings were $15.5 Million, which is a growth of 85% Year on Year. This was driven by reduced HR consumption from a major customer.
The annual recurring revenue (ARR) was $98.6 Million, which is down 24% compared to ARR for Q3 2022. This was largely driven by a drop in consumption-based ARR from a major customer over the trailing twelve months from Q3 2023 as compared to Q3 2022.
