Historic software ACV with growth in all regions

All-time high in services bookings and highest average services deal size ever

Company excited about momentum leading into 2024

BOSTON, Jan. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Syniti, a global leader in enterprise data management, today announced record-breaking fourth quarter 2023 results, setting a strong position for the company in the new year. The company's Data First strategy continues to resonate with customers and partners, with record highs in software annual contract value (ACV) and services bookings, as well as key strategic wins with multinational brands in the oil & gas, chemical manufacturing, food and beverage, and retail industries. Syniti also reports its highest average services deal value ever, with the fourth quarter delivering the highest volume of deals over $1 million in company history.

Having a solid foundation of clean, quality data is critical to the success of any business transformation, whether that's system modernization or taking advantage of AI. Yet many organizations continue to use a "status quo" approach to transformation projects that hasn't fundamentally changed in decades, doesn't support innovation and isn't delivering on the value promised. Syniti's Data First approach ensures data quality is prioritized from day one; combining intelligent software and patented methodology with specialized technology and business data expertise to understand data in context and help accelerate the timeline for capturing value from these strategic initiatives.

Financial highlights:

Annual recurring revenue (ARR) grew 7% over third quarter, and 36% when compared to the fourth quarter of 2022.
The company closed 47 enterprise software contracts, exceeding the previous high in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Twenty-six significant new logos were added in the quarter, including global distribution solutions provider Caldic and global technology company Heraeus Group; Syniti also expanded work with existing clients Bridgestone, BHP and others.
The company reported record volume and value with its SAP^® business, breaking records set in the third quarter of 2023 and demonstrating the company's growing momentum with its largest and longest-standing partner.
Syniti experienced growth in all regions. It hit record-breaking sales in software and services in EMEA, and the Americas delivered a 44% increase in services bookings over the previous quarter. The Asia Pacific and Japan (APJ) region had big wins with major food & beverage and mining/manufacturing clients.
Significant renewals at many key clients, bringing the yearly total renewal rate to greater than 90%, demonstrating the value of Syniti's data expertise and client's desire for Syniti to handle their entire digital transformation journey.
Syniti celebrated 18 successful go-lives in the fourth quarter resulting in 38 major project go-lives in 2023. The company also celebrated its first go-lives with its cloud-native product, Syniti Knowledge Platform, which launched in the fourth quarter of 2022. These go-lives were celebrated at Legrand as well as other Global 2000 clients undergoing major SAP transformations.
