More specifically on the former, HubSpot's quarterly revenue increased 38% year over year to $122.6 million, and it translated to adjusted earnings of $7.4 million, or $0.18 per share, up from $0.07 per share in the same year-ago period. By comparison, most analysts were only expecting adjusted quarterly earnings of $0.16 per share on revenue of $118 million.

So what

HubSpot's subscription revenue climbed 38%, representing the vast majority of total sales at $116.6 million. That growth was driven primarily by a 40% increase in HubSpot's total customers, to 48,091, which more than offset a modest 2% decline in average subscription revenue per customer. Professional services and other revenue also jumped 27%, to $6 million.

Top Safest Stocks To Buy For 2021: Multi-Color Corporation(LABL)

Multi-Color Corporation (Multi-Color), incorporated on April 15, 1985, is engaged in label solutions business, supporting brands, including producers of home and personal care, wine and spirit, food and beverage, healthcare and specialty consumer products.

The Company also provides a range of print methods, including flexographic, lithographic, rotogravure, letterpress and digital, and in-house prepress services.

Pressure Sensitive Labels

The Company's pressure sensitive labels adhere to a surface with pressure. The label consists of four elements: substrate, which includes paper, foil or plastic; an adhesive, which can be permanent or removable; a release coating, and a backing material to protect the adhesive against premature contact with other surfaces. The release coating and protective backing are removed prior to application to the container, exposing the adhesive, and the label is pressed or rolled into place. The product offers neckbands, peel-away coupons, resealable labels, see-through window graphics, and holographic foil enhancements to cold and hot foil stamping.

In-Mold Labels

The in-mold label process applies a label to a plastic container as the container is being formed in the mold cavity. The components of in-mold labels include the substrate (the base material for the label), inks, overcoats, varnishes and adhesives. The Company manufactures in-mold label on rotogravure, flexographic and lithographic printing presses.

Heat Transfer Labels

The heat transfer labels are reverse printed and transferred from a special release liner onto the container using heat and pressure. The labels are a composition of inks and lacquers. The! se labels are printed and then shipped to blow molders and/or contract decorators transferring the labels to the containers. Once applied, the labels are permanently adhered to the container. Therimage is its heat transfer label technology developed primarily for applications involving plastic containers, serving consumer markets in personal care, food and beverage, and home improvement products. The addition of the Clear ADvantage brand provides graphics on both glass and plastic containers.

Glue-Applied Labels

The glue-applied labels (cut and stack) are adhered to containers using an adhesive applied during the labeling process. These labels can be produced on a range of substrates and accommodate a range of embellishments, including foil stamping, embossing, metallic and varnish finishes. The Company's glue-applied labels include peel-away promotional labels, thermochromics, holographic and metalized films. The Company also offers promotional products, such as scratch-off coupons, static-clings and tags.

Shrink Sleeve Labels

The Shrink sleeve labels are manufactured as sleeves, slid over glass or plastic bottles and then heated to conform to the contours of the container. The shrink sleeves are applicable in beverage market within the consumer goods industry, and food and personal care markets.

Graphic Services

The Company provides graphics and pre-press services for its customers at all of its manufacturing locations. These services include the conversion of customer digital files and artwork into proofs, production of print layouts and printing plates, and product mock ups and samples for market research.
