Veeva Systems (VEEV) to Post Q3 Earnings: What's in Store?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Veeva Systems Inc. (VEEV - Free Report) is scheduled to release third-quarter fiscal 2021 results on Dec 1, after the closing bell.
In the last reported quarter, the company delivered an earnings surprise of 12.5%. Further, its beat estimates in each of the trailing four quarters, the average surprise being 10.3%.
Q3 Estimates
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company’s fiscal third-quarter earnings is pegged at 68 cents, suggesting an improvement of 13.3% from the year-ago quarter. The same for revenues stands at $361.5 million, indicating growth of 28.7% from the prior-year reported figure.
Factors to Note
Veeva Systems unique product portfolio, comprising Veeva Vault, Veeva CRM, Veeva Network and Veeva OpenData, might have driven the fiscal third-quarter performance.
The company’s first cloud-based content management system, built specifically for life sciences — Veeva Vault — is likely to have added new Vault customers in the quarter to be reported.
Strength across each Vault application area, including continued momentum in more established products and early success for new products, may have benefited the to-be-reported quarter’s performance.
Further, Veeva Commercial Cloud and Veeva Vault are likely to have contributed to Professional Service and Other segment’s revenues in the to-be-reported quarter. Additionally, Veeva Systems’ subscription revenues might reflect increase in bookings in the fiscal third quarter.
Strong performance across Veeva Systems’ segments — Subscription Service and Professional Service and Others — is likely to get reflected in the to-be-reported quarter’s revenues. Notably, the company expects revenues between $360 million and $362 million in third-quarter fiscal 2021.
Moreover, in May 2020, the company announced MyVeeva for clinical trials. Notably, it is a software designed to enable clinical research sites to interact more remotely with their patients when required so that they can have a mix of in-office and virtual visits.
Further in the same month, the company announced that Alvotech, a biopharmaceutical company specializing in biosimilars, adopted Veeva Vault Training for more effective role-based training across its organization.
In June 2020, the company announced Veeva Link for KAM, a new solution that generates commercial and medical teams’ precise customer data and real-time insights for key account management. Veeva Link for KAM integrates data and AI-driven insights on key people and key accounts from thousands of scientific and digital sources.
Management anticipates significant contribution from the Crossix and Physicians World buyouts in fiscal 2021 with the estimate between $90 million and $95 million.
These positive developments are likely to get reflected in the fiscal third-quarter results.
However, escalating expenses on the operational side might have weighed on Veeva Systems’ margins.
