The Sunnyvale-based company racked up revenue of $33.9m, up from $30.5m a year ago.
However the company only just fought off the red ink after turning over a small profit of $0.6m for the quarter. Last year the company’s net income was in much more healthy state, standing at $4.8m.
Verity’s CEO Anthony Bettencourt said he was disappointed with the latest set of results and blamed a failure close key deals as a cause for the slide in profitability.
Verity was hit with a $8.3m cash payment for its acquisition of business process management firm Dralasoft Inc during the quarter.
