Bridgeline reported 28 SaaS license sales totaling over $1 Million in total contract value with $340 Thousand in annual recurring revenue for its fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022. Bridgeline’s cross-selling and upsell strategy remains strong, with 13 license sales to its existing customer base on top of 15 newly won customers. Existing Bridgeline customers including HP, 7-Eleven, and SAGE Publishing expanded their commitment to Bridgeline this quarter with further investments in Bridgeline software and services.
“In 2022, Bridgeline acquired customers in new industries and expanded customer licenses through cross-selling,” said Ari Kahn, Bridgeline’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “This incremental license ARR has helped us deliver double-digit growth in Fiscal Year 2022.”
Bridgeline also saw outstanding customer subscription renewals with more than 100 renewing customers including Caterpillar, AstraZeneca, Hammacher Schlemmer, and Coca-Cola Europacific Partners. Last quarter Bridgeline announced more than 80% of its revenue was from subscriptions and it expects this to continue with subscriptions representing the vast majority of its revenue.
