Technology stocks, as the name represents, are those whose goods or services fundamentally rely on or use technology. Additionally, tech stocks serve a huge and varied range of industries, from software for corporations to PCs, smartphones, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices.

As a rapidly increasing market with several subsectors, tech companies are currently concentrating on concluding ways to combine recent scientific findings with product thinking and develop unique solutions for persistent consumer needs.

However, both low-tech and high-tech equities are always looking for new investors. So, if you are thinking of entering the Canadian technology stocks market or are already a part of it, let’s glance at two TSX tech stocks and their financial performances over the past year:

Docebo Inc . (TSX: DCBO) Operating as a cloud-based learning platform, Docebo Inc. holds its presence globally, including regions like Europe, Asia, and North America. Software-as-a-Service applications (SaaS) and professional services revenue are the primary sources of income for the company.

The company’s total market capitalization is about C$ 1.55 billion, and its return on equity (ROE) was 2.19 per cent at the time of writing. Since the last 30 days, the DCBO stock was up 3.8 per cent.

Docebo mentioned improving its revenue to US$ 37 million, up 37 per cent year-over-year (YoY). The company’s gross profit and net income for Q3’22 were US$ 29.8 million and US$ 10.3 million, respectively. Docebo’s business highlights for the third quarter of 2022 are summarized below:

Bottom Line Investing in 2023 might be difficult due to rising inflation and recession warnings in the past year. Investors are now being cautious about putting money in a stock market that remained extremely volatile throughout the past year. So, before choosing to invest in any of the stocks, always conduct a thorough market study.
