SaaS Revenue Grows 32% Year-Over-Year
DALLAS, August 11, 2021 – Thryv Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:THRY) (“Thryv” or the “Company”), the provider of Thryv® software, the end-to-end client experience platform for growing small businesses, announced financial results for the second quarter 2021. The Company has also raised its 2021 outlook for its SaaS segment.
“During Q2, we saw strong and continued growth in our SaaS business,” said Joe Walsh, CEO and president of Thryv. “Small businesses are moving to the cloud and we are providing them the tools they need to automate and modernize their businesses. As a result of our efforts, we are seeing accelerated growth and we are raising our SaaS revenue guidance for 2021.”
“We see clients putting their faith in us as they take that leap to manage and grow their business using modern small business software. Small businesses need an end-to-end solution, not several different point solutions. Multiple solutions are expensive and are difficult to manage. Thryv provides the frictionless and simplified experience small businesses need.”
