Zoom also boasted close to half a million business customers with more than ten employees, which is up 87 per cent year on year.

“We kicked off the fiscal year with a very strong first quarter,” said Zoom founder and CEO, Eric S. Yuan.

“Work is no longer a place, it’s a space where Zoom serves to empower your teams to connect and bring their best ideas to life. We are energised to help lead the evolution to hybrid work that allows greater flexibility, productivity, and happiness to both in-person and virtual connections.”

Net profit sits at $1.32 a share.

Wall Street analysts had forecast revenue of $908 million, with a value of 99 cents per share.

“Our steadfast commitment to empowering customers to work and learn from anywhere with our expansive, innovative, and frictionless video communications platform continued to drive our results,” Yuan continued.
