Let’s see how things are shaping up for this announcement.

Key Factors to Consider

Pareteum’s mission is to connect every person and everything. This software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform provider’s first-quarter 2019 results are expected to benefit from an expanding customer base. Notably, the company exited 2018 with 533 customers compared with 25 at the end of 2017.

Moreover, Pareteum won 3-year contracts from 20 new customers across the globe, worth $30 million, in February 2019. Further, in March, the company won contracts worth $100 million.

Although these contracts don’t materially impact first-quarter results, they reflect growing demand for Pareteum’s software solution that enables mobile virtual network operator (MVNOs), IoT and applications on one network or cloud.

The company is benefiting from more than 70 partnership agreements with global mobile network operators (MNOs) that allows it to resell surplus network capacity to MVNO’s as per the latter’s need. The company’s current customer base includes enterprises, communication service providers and developers, and IoT services.

Additionally, the acquisitions of Artilium and iPass have strengthened Parateum’s portfolio and helped it offer end-to-end services. This is expected to drive top-line growth.

In late March, the company inked a sales transaction with Citrix Systems CTXS, under which the latter will migrate employees to a cloud-based deployment of Pareteum's iPass SmartConnect solution.

These acquisitions are also providing significant synergies in terms of cost savings, which are likely to drive margins in the soon-to-be-reported quarter.
