Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Revenue Growth: Total revenue increased 29% year-over-year for Q2 2026 and 27% for the six-month period. Growth was driven by both new customers and expansion within the existing base.
• SaaS Mix: SaaS subscriptions contributed 53% of total revenue in Q2 2026, up from 45% in the same period in 2025, indicating a continued shift toward cloud-managed deployments.
• Profitability Improvement: The operating loss narrowed significantly from $26.0 million in Q2 2025 to $13.2 million in Q2 2026. Net loss improved from $21.7 million to $4.2 million, aided by higher interest income ($7.7 million vs $6.3 million) and improved operating leverage.
• Expense Trends: Operating expenses increased 15% year-over-year in Q2, primarily due to higher personnel-related expenses (increased headcount) and third-party software costs, partially offset by $1.5 million in refundable tax credits commencing in 2026.
• Share Repurchases: The company repurchased 47,727 shares for $2.0 million in Q2 2026 under a $300 million program authorized in February 2026. Approximately $298 million remains available.

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

• Outlook: Management expects net dollar retention rate to remain relatively stable around current levels (121% as of June 30, 2026). The company anticipates continued investment in R&D and sales/marketing to support growth.
• Geopolitical Risks: The filing highlights significant volatility in the Middle East, including ongoing conflicts involving Israel, the U.S., Iran, and Hezbollah. While the company maintains a business continuity plan and has not experienced material operational disruption to date, the situation remains volatile and could impact operations, employee availability (military service), and the broader economy.
• Regulatory Environment: The company is monitoring the impact of the EU AI Act and new Israeli tax regulations regarding R&D credits and knowledge-intensive industry acquisitions.
• Market Risks: Risks include competition from cloud providers (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud), potential slowdowns in enterprise IT spending due to macroeconomic conditions, and the challenges of integrating AI technologies into the platform.

Investor Verification Checklist

• Geopolitical Exposure: Verify the extent of employee mobilization in Israel and the specific impact on R&D output and operational continuity given the ongoing regional conflict.
• SaaS Transition: Confirm the sustainability of the gross margin expansion as the revenue mix shifts further toward SaaS, which typically carries different cost structures than self-managed solutions.
• Customer Concentration: Review the number of customers with ARR over $1 million (97 as of June 30, 2026) to assess reliance on large enterprise contracts.
• Share Repurchase Activity: Monitor the pace of the $300 million share repurchase program and its impact on cash reserves relative to operating cash flow.
• Tax Credit Utilization: Validate the recognition of the new Israeli R&D refundable tax credits and their impact on future effective tax rates.
