(1) This press release uses non-GAAP financial metrics that are adjusted for the impact of various GAAP items. See the section titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the tables entitled “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for details.

(2) Veeva is not able, at this time, to provide GAAP targets for operating income and fully diluted net income per share for the third fiscal quarter ending October 31, 2026 or the fiscal year ending January 31, 2027 because of the difficulty of estimating certain items excluded from non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP fully diluted net income per share that cannot be reasonably predicted, such as charges related to stock-based compensation expense. The effect of these excluded items may be significant.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In Veeva’s public disclosures, Veeva has provided non-GAAP measures, which it defines as financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP. In addition to its GAAP measures, Veeva uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally for budgeting and resource allocation purposes and in analyzing its financial results. For the reasons set forth below, Veeva believes that excluding the following items provides information that is helpful in understanding its operating results, evaluating its future prospects, comparing its financial results across accounting periods, and comparing its financial results to its peers, many of which provide similar non-GAAP financial measures.

Excess tax benefit (deficiency). Excess tax benefits (deficiencies) from employee stock plans are dependent on previously agreed-upon equity grants to our employees, vesting of those grants, stock price, and exercise behavior of our employees, which can fluctuate from quarter to quarter. Because these fluctuations are not directly related to our business operations, Veeva finds it useful to exclude excess tax benefits (deficiencies) when assessing the level of cash provided by operating activities. Given the nature of the excess tax benefits (deficiencies), Veeva believes excluding it allows investors to make meaningful comparisons between our operating cash flows from quarter to quarter and those of other companies.Stock-based compensation expenses. Veeva excludes stock-based compensation expenses primarily because they are non-cash expenses that Veeva excludes from its internal management reporting processes. Veeva’s management also finds it useful to exclude these expenses when they assess the appropriate level of various operating expenses and resource allocations when budgeting, planning and forecasting future periods. Moreover, because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types that companies can use, Veeva believes excluding stock-based compensation expenses allows investors to make meaningful comparisons between our recurring core business operating results and those of other companies.Amortization of purchased intangibles. Veeva incurs amortization expense for purchased intangible assets in connection with acquisitions of certain businesses and technologies. Amortization of intangible assets is a non-cash expense and is inconsistent in amount and frequency because it is significantly affected by the timing, size of acquisitions and the inherent subjective nature of purchase price allocations. Because these costs have already been incurred and cannot be recovered, and are non-cash expenses, Veeva excludes these expenses for its internal management reporting processes. Veeva’s management also finds it useful to exclude these charges when assessing the appropriate level of various operating expenses and resource allocations when budgeting, planning and forecasting future periods. Investors should note that the use of intangible assets contributed to Veeva’s revenues earned during the periods presented and will contribute to Veeva’s future period revenues as well.Litigation settlement-related charges. We exclude certain costs related to litigation settlements, including outcome-based payments to the law firms that represented us, because they are non-recurring and outside the ordinary course of business. Because these costs are unrelated to our day-to-day business operations, we believe excluding them enables more consistent evaluation of our operating results.Income tax effects on the difference between GAAP and non-GAAP costs and expenses. The income tax effects that are excluded relate to the imputed tax impact on the difference between GAAP and non-GAAP costs and expenses due to stock-based compensation and purchased intangibles for GAAP and non-GAAP measures.

There are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures because non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures provided by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures are limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by Veeva’s management about which items are adjusted to calculate its non-GAAP financial measures. Veeva compensates for these limitations by analyzing current and future results on a GAAP basis as well as a non-GAAP basis and also by providing GAAP measures in its public disclosures.

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Veeva encourages its investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate its business, and to view its non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of GAAP to the non-GAAP financial measures has been provided in the tables below.

— Yancheng Radio and Television Releases the Six‑Episode Micro‑documentary Homeland on the Tidal Flats

YANCHENG, China, Nov. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Ten thousand years ago, this land was nothing but sea. Today, 520,000 hectares of wetlands have risen from the tides, providing shelter for more than 4,700 species of life, where 467 kinds of birds arrive as promised. This land born out of the ocean holds an entire vibrant world.

Along China’s eastern coast stretches a 582‑kilometer coastline. Yancheng, home to 6.7 million people, lies next to one of the most densely populated regions on Earth, yet it has reserved vast “undeveloped” spaces for nature. Nearly one‑third of the world’s spoon‑billed sandpipers stop here to refuel; the world’s largest wild elk population thrives here; and four out of every ten offshore wind turbines worldwide are manufactured right here. At China’s first coastal World Natural Heritage Site — Yancheng — protection does not mean sealing nature off, nor does development mean pushing the wetlands aside. Instead, the city chooses to live in harmony with nature and grow along its rhythms: leaving ample room for nature amid development, and building better lives while safeguarding the ecosystem.

The six‑episode eco‑humanistic micro‑documentary Homeland on the Tidal Flats uses the camera as a pen to write a love letter between the sea and the land. Episode One, The Tidal Forest, reveals the intricate, hidden web of life in the intertidal zones. Episode Two, Return to the Wild, chronicles the rebirth of the elk population from just 39 to over 8,800. Episode Three, Beneath the Wings, records the visits of spoon‑billed sandpipers and red‑crowned cranes. Episode Four, New Life on Salty Soil, shows how rice waves and green granaries emerge from saline‑alkali soil. Episode Five, Light on the Wind, explores the pulse of offshore wind power and the zero‑carbon city. Episode Six, Wetland Life, captures the everyday rhythm of a city breathing in tune with its wetlands.

Prioritizing ecology and pursuing green development is the answer this beautiful city of harmonious coexistence between humanity and nature has written for Chinese‑style modernization.

Over 100 Delegates and 16 Startups: Taiwan Sends Largest-Ever Fintech Delegation to SFF 2026 as FinTechSpace Debuts “Taiwan Fintech Fleet” Collaboration Model

Published

on

By

TAIPEI, Nov. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — FinTechSpace, Taiwan’s premier one-stop fintech innovation acceleration hub – guided by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) and founded by the Taiwan Financial Services Roundtable (TFSR) — is making its eighth consecutive appearance at the Singapore FinTech Festival (SFF). This year, FinTechSpace has mobilized innovation energy from both northern and southern Taiwan to curate the island’s largest-ever delegation, bringing over 100 fintech leaders, representatives, and 16 selected startups at the Taiwan Pavilion (Booth #5B33, Hall 5).

The Taiwan Pavilion showcases 16 international pitch sessions anchored around three core pillars: Resilience Forward: Operational Defense & Compliance; New Asset Horizons: Digital & Sustainable Finance; and Ignite Growth: Enterprise & Integrated Solutions. Crucially, FinTechSpace is debuting its groundbreaking “Theme-Based Fleet Pilot Program,” an initiative designed to integrate multi-team technologies and services to capitalize on complementary strengths, demonstrating the versatility, depth, and international competitiveness of Taiwan’s fintech ecosystem. The delegation will also host two high-level international networking events to deepen cross-border collaboration and unlock commercial opportunities.

Maiden Flagship Initiative: “Trustworthy FinTech” Fleet Hits the Global Stage

The newly launched “Taiwan Fintech Fleet” serves as a collaborative mechanism that connects the specialized capabilities of different startups into cohesive, scenario-based enterprise solutions. By replacing standalone tools with integrated offerings, the fleet model enables international financial institutions and enterprise clients to seamlessly adopt multi-faceted services that directly address operational pain points.

The inaugural rollout focuses on “Trust in FinTech,” bringing together six FinTechSpace portfolio companies – IHH, TOPPAN Security, KDAN, AIFT, FANO, and wiAdvance – to form two strategic theme fleets: “Digital Trust Chain” and “Trustworthy AI Guardrails”. The initiative propels startups to transition from “single-point services” to “full-scenario application” solutions, while taking a “fleet goes global” model to lead teams in jointly expanding into international markets and demonstrating the integration and collaborative strength driving Taiwan’s fintech industry.

Two Signature Events: Canada Meets Taiwan Forum and Taiwan–Korea Happy Hour Deepen Global Ties

During SFF, the Taiwan Pavilion will host “Canada Meets Taiwan: AI, Fintech, and New Opportunities for Financial Innovation” on Wednesday, November 18, 2026, from 2:30 to 3:15 PM (Singapore time). The session brings together government, industry, and academic representatives from Taiwan and Canada to discuss how artificial intelligence is reshaping fintech innovation, and to exchange insights on ecosystem development and collaboration opportunities, further strengthening bilateral fintech ties.

The Taiwan Pavilion is also teaming up with the Korea Pavilion to host a “Happy Hour” networking mixer, featuring Taiwanese and Korean snacks in a relaxed, social setting. The event is designed to spark connections between fintech startups, financial institutions, and industry partners from both countries, opening the door to future technical collaboration and market expansion.

An Open Invitation: Join Taiwan in Building the Next Wave of FinTech Opportunity

FinTechSpace warmly invites financial institutions, investors, and industry partners from around the world to visit the Taiwan Pavilion (Booth #5B33, Hall 5) during SFF, November 18–20, 2026, to engage with participating teams and explore opportunities for technical collaboration, business partnerships, and investment.
