Thank you, Operator. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining us today for Research Solutions' third quarter fiscal 2022 earnings call. On the call with me today are Roy W. Olivier, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Bill Nerthen, Chief Financial Officer. After the market closed this afternoon, the company issued a press release announcing its results for the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The release is available on the company's website at researchsolutions.com. Before turning the call over to Roy and Bill, or before Roy and Bill begin their prepared remarks, I would like to remind you that some of the statements made today will be forward-looking statements and are made under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied due to a variety of factors. We refer you to Research Solutions' recent filings with the SEC for a more detailed discussion of the risks that could impact the company's future operating results and financial condition. Also, on today's call, management will reference certain non-GAAP financial measures, which we believe provide useful information for investors. A reconciliation of those measures to GAAP measures is included in the earnings press release issued this afternoon. Finally, I would like to remind everyone that this call will be recorded and made available for replay via a link on the company's website. With that, I would now like to turn the call over to Roy. Roy?

President and Chief Executive Officer

Thank you, Stephen, and thanks to everyone joining us today. We are generally pleased with our continued progress and growing the business. It was our second quarter of net ARR growth over 500,000 and a record in terms of quarterly recognized revenue. We had a strong upsell quarter, which is a good sign that the product upgrades we have been investing in are valuable to our customers. The upsell number was also a company record and helped us to maintain over 110% net churn for the second quarter in a row, and now in three of the last four quarters. The business also posted over 30% growth year-over-year in platform customer growth, ARR, and platform revenue. Our net new customer deployments on a trailing 12-month basis was 168. A majority of these deployments are what we call new-new, which means they are new customers to the company, not upgrades. I'll provide some additional context after Bill walks you through the quarterly results in more detail.
