300 percent SaaS bookings growth and 11 percent revenue growth spur Q2 results

JDA Software, Inc., today announced strong financial momentum and customer demand for its software and software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions in the second quarter of 2018. These results underscore JDA’s focus on delivering on digital supply chain transformations across its end-to-end supply chain platform, delivering cognitive insights that enable more intelligent, automated business decisions to help make companies more competitive and profitable.

“Customer response to our JDA Luminate product line has been very positive. With our recently announced acquisition of Blue Yonder and our sights set on delivering an Autonomous Supply ChainTM, we are infusing new, innovative capabilities on the edge to further automate intelligent decision-making,” said Girish Rishi, chief executive officer, JDA. “Also, I take this opportunity to acknowledge the JDA team that is living our values and building a culture of operational excellence, which has led to yet another quarter of delivering profitable growth across each segment of our business.”

SaaS bookings accelerate in Q2, coupled with sustained profitable growth across Product bookings

Q2 2018 Product (software and SaaS) bookings grew 14 percent year-over-year (YoY) fueled by a 314 percent YoY increase in SaaS bookings marking JDA’s 10th consecutive quarter of double digit product bookings growth on a YOY basis.  Total revenue grew by 11 percent and product revenue grew 16 percent in Q2 2018 compared to the same period last year.
