Coupa's Growth Velocity Continues IN Q2 With 14th Sequential Quarter of Record Growth

Series E Funding, Major Customer Wins Fortify Leadership Position In Cloud Spend Optimization Market

SAN MATEO, Calif. – July 17, 2012 – Coupa Software, the leader in cloud spend optimization software, today announced Q2 2012 results, highlighted by a 185 percent increase in the amount of spend through its platform, compared to Q2 2011. Further illustrating the momentum, Coupa posted its 14th sequential quarter of growth in new annual contract value.

To fund growth, Coupa completed a $22 million Series E round of funding in May, led by new investor Crosslink Capital. Venture capital firms Battery Ventures, BlueRun Ventures, El Dorado Ventures and Mohr Davidow Ventures continued their commitment to Coupa by also participating in the round.

“Our growth and our latest round of funding have put Coupa in a great position to accelerate our expansion,” said Rob Bernshteyn, CEO of Coupa. “Our recent customer wins are also a testament to the value of our platform, which helps companies spend responsibly. We’re empowering companies to lead the charge from within to control spend and improve their bottom line.”

“Our circumstances at Adidas Latin America were complex, because we use different languages and currencies. Coupa struck the right balance between standardization and customization, and complemented our existing ERP system while allowing visibility into our spend at a regional level,” said Christian Bader, head of IT at Adidas Latin America. “We were able to fully implement Coupa in just a short six weeks with everything we needed: procure-to-pay, budgets, contracts and reporting functionality.”

Other highlights highlighting Coupa’s velocity include:

  • New Customers: Coupa Software added Coca Cola Bottling, Orbitz, AAA Insurance, Exelis, General Atlantic, Cadence Design Systems, Amerinet, Atlassian, GREE, Hanger Orthopedics and many others.
