Atlassian (TEAM - Free Report) reported better-than-expected third-quarter fiscal 2021 bottom-line results. The company’s non-IFRS earnings per share of 48 cents beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 29 cents. Moreover, the figure surged 92%, year on year, mainly driven by higher revenues.
Quarter in Detail
The company’s fiscal third-quarter revenues jumped 38% to $568.7 million on the elevated short-term demand for its on-premises products, as customers rushed to purchase ahead of both the planned price changes and the discontinuation of new server license sales. New client additions and increased pricing on certain products also boosted revenues during the quarter. However, the top line missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $569.2 million.
Segment wise, Subscription revenues jumped 43% year over year to $349.9 million. Sales from the Maintenance business increased 11% to $132.9 million, while Perpetual License business revenues grew 49% to $31.3 million. Other revenues surged 104% year on year to $54.6 million.
