Veeva Systems unique product portfolio, comprising Veeva Vault, Veeva CRM, Veeva Network and Veeva OpenData is likely to have driven the fiscal fourth quarter performance.
Veeva Systems’ first cloud-based content management system, built specifically for life sciences — Veeva Vault — is likely to have added new Vault customers in the fiscal fourth quarter.
Additionally, Veeva Andi — the new AI application released by the company in first-quarter fiscal 2020, which delivers insights and next best action suggestions right in Veeva CRM — is likely to have contributed to the fiscal fourth-quarter results.
Management stated that, in fiscal 2020, Veeva Systems aims to release major capabilities within Vault CDMS, which are expected to be real game changers for the life sciences industry.
Strength across each Vault application area, including continued momentum in more established products and early success for new products is likely to have contributed to the fiscal fourth-quarter performance.
Veeva Systems’ subscription revenues are likely to have benefited from increase in bookings in the fiscal fourth quarter. In fact, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company’s subscription revenues is pegged at $246 million, indicating an improvement of 29.1% from the year-ago quarter.
Further, Veeva Commercial Cloud and Veeva Vault are likely to have driven Professional Service and Other segment’s revenues in the to-be-reported quarter.

However, intense competition across most of the product lines is likely to have weighed Veeva Systems’ overall performance.
