Tableau (NYSE:DATA) announced its second quarter results on August 2nd. For the quarter ended June 30th, the company’s revenue grew by 32.5% year over year  to $198.5 million and exceeded the consensus estimate of $193.7 million. The increase in revenues was driven by strong growth in Licence revenues, which recorded an increase of 20% in revenues over the prior year quarter to $116.3 million. The company successfully added 3,900 clients to its base in the quarter, which was the highest in its history. Despite the increase in revenues, the company reported operating losses of $46.9 million. This was primarily due to increased spending in sales and marketing and research and development, a reflection of the company’s focus on growth. For the quarter, the company reported a net loss of $47.5 million or 64 cents a share, a significant increase from the last year quarter’s figures of $18.9 million or 27 cents a share. On a non-GAAP basis, the results were roughly breakeven.

Revenue Growth

The revenue growth for the company was fueled by a 20.3% year-over-year increase in the License revenues and a 54.7% increase in the Maintainence and Services revenues. The growth in the License revenues was primarily due to a 28% rise in the license bookings over the last year period. In addition to this, the company successfully added 3,900 more customers to its base in the last quarter. The company successfully closed 16 deals of value greater than $1 million, and another 332 transactions of value $100,000.
