Examining the First Three Months
For BroadSoft, the first financial quarter for 2017 was made up of January, February, and March. In that time, their total revenue rose to approximately $79.7 million, which was an increase of around 9% from the first quarter of 2016.
In total, the net loss for the first quarter was $10.5 million, compared to a loss of only $1.5 million during the first quarter of 2016. In other words, though the revenue rose dramatically, the loss was pretty significant too. On the basis of Non-GAAP earnings, the first quarter of 2017 saw a growth of $6.2 million, compared to a non-GAAP income of $11.1 million.
BroadSoft plan to discuss the financial results of their first quarter during a conference call and live audio webcast.
