Halogen Software is building “good momentum” so far in 2016, CEO Les Rechan said late Thursday, citing first-quarter total and recurring revenues that exceeded guidance.
“We saw good momentum in support of our strategic initiatives in Q1 including: increasing our product suite capabilities to enable next-generation performance for our customers, good inroads on partner expansion with Dell Boomi and Jobvite and a renewed focus on aligning our business to customer outcomes,” Mr. Rechan said in a statement.
The Ottawa firm posted first-quarter revenue of $17.7 million, up 11 per cent from the same quarter of 2015. Recurring revenue came in at $16.2 million, a 13 per cent increase from the same period last year.
