Zoom revenues and profit soar as pandemic propels videoconferencing

Zoom saw revenue more than double and bulked up what had been a razor-thin profit margin in the three months ending April 30, the company reported Tuesday.

The big picture: The report marks Zoom's first of the pandemic era, as the company went from insurgent enterprise video-conferencing startup to global powerhouse.


Details:

  • Revenue came to $328.2 million, up 169% year over year and well above the $203 million Wall Street reportedly expected.
  • Net income came to $27.0 million, or $0.09 per share, up from $198,000, or roughly break-even per share, in the year-ago quarter. Analysts had been projecting $0.01 per share.
  • The company counted roughly 265,400 enterprise customers with more than 10 employees, up 354% year over year.

Zoom shares were up modestly in after-hours trading following the report.
