The platform collects critical business information from over 100 million listings and sends over 1 billion updates per year through the industry’s largest network of direct integration partners, including platforms -forms such as Google, Amazon Alexa, Apple Maps, and many more.

Last week, Yext released quarterly results that beat Wall Street forecasts. Net loss was $25.8 million and revenue for the quarter increased 7% to $98.8 million.
Although the stock has performed remarkably well in recent months, the overall interest from investors has dropped noticeably. That has seen its trading volume surge by 40.41%, figures that rank poorly compared to the stock’s average volumes. This information is critical as it reflects the stocks’ float size, given that the market is exposed to 117.14 million shares of the company.
