Duck Creek Technologies, a provider of SaaS-delivered enterprise software to the property & casualty (“P&C”) insurance industry, today announced its financial results for the three months ended November 30, 2020.
“Duck Creek’s strong business momentum continued into fiscal year 2021, with first quarter financial and operational results that were highlighted by 59% subscription revenue growth,” said Michael Jackowski, Duck Creek’s Chief Executive Officer. “We signed 4 new Duck Creek OnDemand deals, including a Tier 1 customer, and a number of add-on transactions during the quarter, further solidifying our position as the clear SaaS leader for the P&C industry.”
Mr. Jackowski added, “P&C carriers are increasingly recognizing the benefits of SaaS-based core systems as they look to deliver on their digital transformation programs to improve their operational outcomes and customer experiences. We believe Duck Creek is in a great position to be a primary beneficiary of the P&C industry’s move to the cloud, which we expect will enable us to continue delivering strong revenue growth and margin expansion over the long-term.”
