"We are pleased by our second quarter results and our significant progress towards profitability. Revenues of $11.7 million were driven by strong order momentum resulting from several large Tier 1 customer wins, combined with significant expansion orders," said Julien Signès, founder and CEO of Envivio. "We continue to balance our progress toward profitability with investing in our future through innovation in key areas. We signed our first Nuage international customer and are also seeing accelerated momentum for large, software only converged head-end solutions." 

As of July 31, 2015, Envivio had cash and cash equivalents of $34.5 million, up $1.7 million quarter over quarter.

Q2 Business and Product Highlights

• Gross Margin – The continuing momentum in adoption of software only solutions resulted in an increase of gross margins to 70.2 percent compared with 58.3 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2015. 
   
• Tier 1 Operator Revenue – 38 percent of Envivio's revenue this quarter came from three US Tier 1 operators who made significant expansions to their existing installations, plus a new Tier 1 customer order.
   
• New Customers – Envivio secured orders from four new customers, to add to its global roster of video service providers.
   
• First Nuage Customer Win – We are pleased to report the first win of the Nuage video cloud solution. Envivio Nuage was launched last year and is an advanced, fully virtualized, live SaaS end-to-end video delivery solution that offers up to 4K live streaming to any device.
   
• Technology Momentum –
  
  • In the second quarter, Envivio broadcasted the French leg of the Volvo Ocean Race in Lorient in ultra-high definition 4K. In addition to broadcasting in ultra-high definition, high dynamic range (or HDR) video and 3D audio, Envivio's Muse Ultra HD encoder was extended with HDR capabilities, enabling a compression of content in 4K 10 bit HDR 50fps, providing increased realism of on-screen images, better color accuracy and highly improved contrast.
     
  • Envivio's Halo product received a new US Tier 1 win with their first deployment of Halo. There continues to be strong interest for the Halo product from existing and prospective customers. Later this month at IBC, Envivio will showcase its new cloud DVR solution combining next-generation process techniques, from efficient software-defined storage, the uses of the latest compression standards to packaging and even transcoding on the fly, resulting in up to 26x reduction in necessary storage capacity.
     
• Product Enhancements – In the second quarter of fiscal 2016, Envivio introduced two hardware platforms optimized for video processing, the Envivio G6 and Envivio X1. The G6 targets the high-end larger customer and has a 50 percent decrease in price performance, while the X1 is an optimized platform for smaller operators and emerging markets and has a 40 percent decrease in price performance. Both products have the power and performance capabilities of the latest generation Intel-based hardware platforms to further increase the capacity and performance of Envivio's Muse processing software. The Muse video compression solution has already proven itself: in customer trials, the new Muse Live 4.0 version delivered outstanding quality H.264 video while using less bandwidth than other solutions.
