Thryv Announces SaaS Revenue Target of $1 Bn in 2027

Thryv Chairman and CEO Joe Walsh will unveil his vision for “the decade of small business automation” and the future trajectory of SaaS revenues today at Thryv Holdings, Inc.’s (NASDAQ:THRY) Investor Day starting at 9 a.m. EDT at the Nasdaq MarketSite in Midtown Manhattan. The Thryv small business platform transforms the way local businesses run, by automating their day-to-day functions with cloud software they access from their smartphone, tablet or laptop.

In connection with the event, the company is announcing it is targeting SaaS revenue of $1 billion by 2027 and $4 billion by 2032. The company is also re-affirming first quarter and full year 2022 financial guidance ranges that it released on March 10, 2022.

“This is the decade that local, independent small businesses automate their operations and follow enterprises into the cloud,” said Walsh. “We put their office in their pocket so they can run their business from anywhere. And what’s exciting is that there are 10 times more small businesses than there are larger enterprises. The opportunity is so much bigger and, beyond that, more impactful to Main Street.”

The company will highlight Thryv’s continued dedication to ensuring small- to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) have access to the same types of tools that enterprise businesses use, scaled for the small business owner’s day-to-day needs. Today’s SMB owner needs a competitive advantage in a market where costs are increasing across the board – in the labor they hire, the supplies they buy, and even in the pay-per-click search advertising they purchase to acquire new customers. Thryv’s platform saves time and money for small business owners by automating time-consuming daily tasks and keeping their brand in front of customers and prospects via their smartphones.
