Technological validation of Broadpeak's SaaS offer: two awards at the IBC global trade show

A new business growth accelerator

Cesson-Sévigné (France), 20 September 2022

After being held virtually for two years straight, the IBC trade show made its comeback in Amsterdam this year, from 9 to 12 September. This must-attend event for media, video and tech professionals, which welcomed around 37,000 visitors and nearly 1,000 exhibitors, underscored the keen interest shown by major clients in Broadpeak's offer (ISIN code: FR001400AJZ7 – Ticker: ALBPK). Broadpeak is a leading French player in video streaming software solutions.

The 2022 trade show came at an important time for Broadpeak with the recent launch of its software as a service (SaaS) offer in the cloud on 18 January.

This platform, called broadpeak.io, boasting turnkey applications and accessible on a monthly subscription basis (billing is based on volumes processed), addresses the growing demand from new media and content creators for fast, flexible and reliable streaming solutions.

The broadpeak.io catalogue was expanded on 1 September with the Dynamic Ad Insertion (DAI) app, presented at IBC 2022. This new service greatly simplifies the insertion of targeted ads during the streaming of live or VOD content, thus increasing monetisation potential. 

These innovations and the strong value associated with the Company's SaaS range were doubly recognised at IBC 2022, where broadpeak.io received both the TV Tech "Best of Show" Award and a CSI Award.

Successful commercial launch, with a gradual rise in recurring revenue

These awards underpin the successful commercial deployment undertaken over the last few months as already materialised by the signing of initial contracts.

 The commercial launch of the SaaS offer is perfectly in line with the company's business plan, bolstering its firm belief that the guidance announced at the time of the IPO will be achieved. The development of broadpeak.io should in particular  pave the way for an increase in recurring revenue. It should be noted that the official goal is to boost recurring revenue (maintenance and SaaS offer) from 20% of total business in 2021 to more than 40% in 2026, when Broadpeak has set a revenue target of €100 million.
