BroadSoft (Nasdaq: BSFT) today said second quarter revenue increased 63 percent year-over-year to $32.2 million; a significant jump in license revenue--it improved 82 percent to $19.2 million--pumped earnings up to $15.8 million, or 32 cents per share for the quarter. In May, the company forecast 9 cents to 11 cents EPS on $28 million to $29 million of revenue.
The results, said the company, are due in large part to continued demand across the company's product line, especially from North American service provoders.
