VeriSign Pre-Earnings: Decelerating Revenue Growth to Continue -- Trefis: "Domain registry services provider
VeriSign (NASDAQ:VRSN) is scheduled to report its second quarter results for fiscal 2014 Thursday, July 24. First quarter revenues grew 5% this fiscal year compared to 15% during a similar period in fiscal 2013. For full fiscal 2014, VeriSign expects revenues to grow between 4% and 5%, lower than the 11% registered in fiscal 2013. In addition to the
slowing adoption of .com and .net domain names from new customers, revenue growth slowed down rapidly in Q1FY14 primarily due to
falling renewal rates. The
global domain name market registered 7.3% increase in
Q4FY13 to 271 million domain names from a comparable period in FY12. During the same period,
the base for country code top-level domains (ccTLDs) continued to grow faster than the .com and .net domain base.
ccTLD domains notched a 12% increase to reach 123 million domain names while VeriSign’s domestic domain base of .com and .net domain names grew 5% to 127 million domain names... In terms of guidance for Q2FY14, the company expects a weak quarter with the zone growing 2-4% on a year-on-year basis before witnessing an acceleration in H2FY14...."
