"SPS Commerce, Inc. (NASDAQ:SPSC) is a global provider of cloud-based supply chain management solutions for fulfillment, analytics, drop shipping and other use cases. Their SPS Commerce platform improves the way retailers, suppliers, grocers, distributors, and logistics companies manage orders, monitor sell-through performance, and discover new products by leveraging cloud technology. During the period, the company reported strong fiscal first quarter results, as revenues and earnings beat analyst estimates. Better-than-expected revenues were driven by strength in both fulfillment and analytics, where management raised their fiscal full year 2023 guidance. Despite a difficult macroeconomic environment with high inflation and recession concerns, management reaffirmed their confidence in its subscription-based business model, which is largely reliant on the number of client connections with only a small portion tied to volumes. Moreover, we believe the company is a key beneficiary of supply chain digitalization over the long-term, given the growing influence of e-commerce."
