Current report
We have non-exclusive distribution agreements with certain partners who enable a more efficient and effective distribution channel for our solutions by managing our resellers and leveraging their own industry experience. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, Partner A accounted for approximately 32%, 35%, and 36% of our total revenues, respectively. Separately, Partner B accounted for approximately 11% of our total revenues for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026. Total revenues for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 for Partner B were less than 10%. If any of these partners were to discontinue or materially reduce their sales of our solutions, terminate their agreements with us, or experience operational or financial difficulties, and if we were unable to effectively replace them or assume management of the affected distribution activities, our business, revenues, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
Current report
We also sell our solutions through cloud-based marketplace offerings operated by third-party platform providers. Revenue from marketplace transactions are typically recorded on a gross basis, and amounts paid to the marketplace providers are capitalized as contract costs and amortized over the term of the related arrangement. Amortization of capitalized marketplace costs was $2.0 million, $1.7 million, and $0.3 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Transactions through third‑party cloud marketplace providers represented less than 10% of our total revenues for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. These transactions include sales to both new and existing customers and may include new purchases, renewals, expansions for existing customers, and subscriptions for both on‑premise and SaaS offerings.

Key Performance Indicators($ in millions)
Current report
We monitor the following key performance indicators to help evaluate the state of our business. We believe the below metrics are material to investors to understand the growth and performance of our business, as they help normalize certain variable factors. Metrics such as Annualized Recurring Revenue ("ARR"), Subscription ARR, SaaS ARR and SaaS Net Dollar Retention Rate ("SaaS NRR") provide a consistent view of our recurring revenue profile. ARR, Subscription ARR, and SaaS ARR exclude non-recurring elements and reflect the annualized value of active contracts, while SaaS NRR measures net expansion within our existing SaaS customer base. Together, we believe these metrics offer meaningful insight into the health and trajectory of our recurring revenue streams.
Current report
Total Annualized Recurring Revenue ("ARR")
Current report
Total ARR represents the annualized value of all active contracts as of the end of a reporting period. ARR includes recurring subscription offerings, customer support associated with perpetual and term licenses, premium support offerings for subscription-based customers, and managed service offerings. ARR excludes non-recurring elements, such as perpetual licenses and professional services, which are typically delivered at a point in time. For all term-based arrangements, ARR is calculated by dividing the total active contract value by the number of days in the contract term and multiplying the result by 365. For consumption-based arrangements on a pay as you go model without a fixed commitment, ARR is calculated by annualizing the revenue contractually expected to be received in a given month based on actual monthly usage from a prior month. Because ARR includes only contracts that are active at the end of the reporting period, it does not reflect assumptions or estimates regarding future contract renewals or non-renewals.
Current report
We believe ARR is a valuable metric for evaluating the growth of our business, as it provides a normalized view of recurring revenue by excluding the variability associated with contract term lengths and omitting contracts that are not expected to renew. Because ARR reflects the annualized value of recurring customer contracts at a particular point in time, quarter‑to‑quarter movements can vary depending on the timing of customer transactions, renewals and other normal purchasing patterns.
Current report
Subscription ARR
Current report
Subscription ARR represents the portion of ARR attributable to term-based licenses, maintenance and support services associated with term license arrangements, SaaS subscriptions, and consumption‑based arrangements, calculated using the same ARR methodology. We believe Subscription ARR provides useful insight into the growth of our subscription-based offerings and reflects both new customer acquisition and expansion within our existing customer base. As our most strategically significant and rapidly expanding revenue streams, our subscription arrangements are central to our long-term growth strategy and operational focus.
Current report
SaaS ARR
Current report
SaaS ARR represents the cloud‑hosted portion of Subscription ARR and excludes revenue attributable to term license arrangements and related maintenance and support services. SaaS ARR reflects the annualized value of active SaaS contracts and we believe this metric provides insight into customer adoption trends and expansion within our cloud-based offerings. As SaaS continues to represent a growing share of both subscription and total revenues, we view this metric as a key indicator of our ability to meet the evolving needs of our customer base. Continued adoption, expansion, and conversion to SaaS arrangements are critical to sustaining our long-term growth and aligning with customer preferences for cloud-delivered solutions.
Current report
SaaS Net Dollar Retention Rate (SaaS NRR)
Current report
SaaS NRR is the percentage of SaaS ARR retained from existing customers at the start of an annual period after accounting for expansion revenue, churn, and downsell. It is presented on a constant currency basis using exchange rates as of March 31, 2025. Acquired SaaS ARR is excluded until the acquisition is fully integrated, which we generally expect to occur twelve months from the closing date. We believe our SaaS Net Dollar Retention Rate offers valuable insight into the year-over-year expansion of our existing customer base, reflecting both increased utilization of current products and services as well as the adoption of additional offerings.
Current report
These metrics are non-GAAP measures and do not have standardized definitions under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). As such, they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses these metrics to assess the health of our recurring revenue base and to inform strategic decision making. These metrics should be viewed independently of GAAP revenue, deferred revenue and unbilled revenue and are not intended to be combined with or to replace those items. ARR is not a forecast of future revenue.
Current report
–Total revenues increased $188.1 million, or 19% year over year, driven primarily by continued growth in subscription revenue, reflecting our strategic focus on selling term-based software licenses and SaaS offerings. Subscription revenue growth included a $64.9 million increase in term-based license revenue and a $113.7 million increase in SaaS revenue. This growth was partially offset by a $12.4 million decrease in perpetual license revenue.
Current report
–Term-based license revenue increased $64.9 million, or 18% year over year, primarily driven by growth in larger transactions. Deals greater than $0.1 million increased 19% year over year, reflecting a 2% increase in average deal size and a 16% increase in transaction volume. These trends were driven by continued strength in new customer acquisition as well as expansion within our existing customer base.
Current report
–SaaS revenue increased $113.7 million, or 52% year over year, driven by strong demand for our SaaS offerings, including higher SaaS bookings from new customers and expansion within our existing customer installed base, including greater multi-product usage.
Current report
–Perpetual license revenue decreased $12.4 million, or 22% year over year, consistent with our continued shift toward subscription-based offerings. Perpetual licenses are generally only sold in limited verticals and geographies, and we expect perpetual license revenue to continue to decline over time.
Current report
–Customer support revenue increased $12.9 million, or 4% year over year, driven by a $33.0 million increase in term-based support revenue, partially offset by a $20.1 million decrease in perpetual support revenue. For the full fiscal year 2026, term-based support revenue was $202.2 million and perpetual support revenue was $118.3 million.
Current report
–Other services revenue increased $9.0 million, or 21% year over year. Period over period changes in other services revenue are primarily driven by the timing of professional services delivery and can vary between periods.
Current report
▪The increase in International total revenues was due to increases of 39%, 42%, 10% and 23% in term-based license, SaaS, customer support and other services revenues, respectively, partially offset by a 10% decrease in perpetual license revenue, as compared to the same period of the prior year.
Current report
–Cost of term-based license revenue increased $1.1 million and represented 2% of our term-based license revenue in fiscal 2026 compared to 3% in fiscal 2025.
Current report
–Sales and marketing expenses increased $85.6 million, or 20%, primarily driven by a $54.1 million increase in employee compensation and related expenses. This net increase reflects headcount additions, as well as higher sales commissions and payroll taxes associated with higher revenue levels relative to the prior year. Sales and marketing expenses also increased $3.5 million due to higher stock-based compensation. In addition, sales and marketing expenses increased $17.0 million due to higher spending on marketing initiatives, including in‑person events and travel.
Current report
–General and administrative expenses increased $24.3 million, or 18%, driven by an $11.6 million increase in professional services, including third party consultants, accounting and compliance activities. In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, we incurred $1.8 million in legal and consulting expenses as a result of our response to a non-routine security matter. General and administrative expenses also included a $3.3 million increase in employee compensation and related expenses, reflecting the impact of annual merit increases. In addition, there was a $2.7 million increase in stock-based compensation.
Current report
–Restructuring expenses were $32.2 million for the year end March 31, 2026. These charges relate to two restructuring plans initiated during fiscal 2026 and consist primarily of severance and associated costs from headcount reductions. These expenses included $4.5 million in fiscal 2026 of stock-based compensation resulting from modifications to existing awards granted to certain employees. We anticipate both plans will be completed in fiscal 2027, with approximately $2.0 million of additional costs expected to be incurred. Restructuring expenses were $10.0 million for the year end March 31, 2025 and related to a prior restructuring plan that was completed in fiscal 2025.
Current report
Interest Income
Current report
Interest income was $21.8 million in fiscal 2026 compared to $6.7 million in fiscal 2025. The increase in interest income was primarily due to higher interest earned on invested cash balances, including investments in money market funds.
Current report
Income Tax Expense
Current report
Income tax expense was $21.5 million in fiscal 2026 compared to $4.9 million in fiscal 2025. The change in income tax expense and effective tax rate is primarily attributable to items related to stock-based compensation. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the "OBBBA"), enacted on July 4, 2025, includes several corporate tax provisions relevant to U.S. businesses. Included in this legislation are provisions that allow for the immediate expensing of domestic research and development expenses, extensions of bonus depreciation, and modifications to the international tax regimes. The provisions in the legislation are generally effective beginning in our fiscal 2026 and have been included in our operating results. The OBBBA primarily affected current and deferred federal tax balances and did not have a material impact on income tax expense for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026.
Current report
Other Factors
Current report
In addition, during the first half of fiscal 2027, we expect to incur a contingent business expense related to performance‑based fees associated with certain strategic pricing and packaging initiatives. The obligation to pay these fees is contingent upon the achievement of defined outcomes, and the timing and amount of the expense remain subject to uncertainty. The amount of any such expense, if triggered, is currently estimated to range from approximately $5.0 million to $10.0 million. If incurred, the expense could increase operating costs and affect comparability of results for the period.
Current report
On September 5, 2025, we completed a private offering of senior, unsecured convertible notes (the "Notes"), with an aggregate principal amount of $900.0 million. Net proceeds after deducting debt issuance costs were approximately $878.4 million. In connection with the Notes, we entered into capped call transactions (the "Capped Calls") which are expected to reduce the potential dilution of our common stock upon any conversion of the Notes and/or offset any cash payments we could be required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes. We used an aggregate amount of $99.6 million of the net proceeds of the Notes to purchase the Capped Calls. Upon conversion, consideration will consist of cash, up to the principal amount of the Notes to be converted, and, for any conversion in excess of principal, cash or shares of our common stock, at our election.
Current report
During fiscal 2026, our Board of Directors (the "Board") approved multiple recommitments of our existing share repurchase program. On April 17, 2025, the Board approved a recommitment authorizing $250.0 million under the program, and on January 14, 2026, the Board approved an additional recommitment, bringing the amount available under the program to $250.0 million.
Current report
For the year end March 31, 2026, we repurchased $446.1 million of our common stock, of which $117.7 million was used in connection with the Notes and paid from the net proceeds. As of March 31, 2026, no funds remained available under the share repurchase program.
Current report
On April 15, 2026, the Board approved a further recommitment of our existing share repurchase program, authorizing $250.0 million to be made available. The share repurchase program does not have an expiration date.

We have a non-exclusive distribution agreement with Arrow pursuant to which Arrow's primary role is to enable a more efficient and effective distribution channel for our solutions by managing our resellers and leveraging their own industry experience. We generated approximately 35%, 36% and 37% of our total revenues through Arrow in fiscal 2025, fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively. If Arrow were to discontinue or reduce the sales of our solutions or if our agreement with Arrow was terminated, and if we were unable to take back the management of our reseller channel or find another distributor to replace Arrow, there could be a material adverse effect on our future business.

We expect our subscription arrangements will continue to generate revenues from the renewals of term-based licenses and SaaS offerings sold in prior years. We offer of our pricing models (capacity, instance based, etc.) to be sold via a subscription arrangement, either through term-based licensing or hosted services. In term-based license arrangements, the customer has the right to use the software over a designated period of time. The capacity of the license is fixed and the customer has made an unconditional commitment to pay. Software revenue in these arrangements is generally recognized when the software is delivered. In SaaS offerings, customers use hosted software over the contract period without taking possession of the software. Revenue related to SaaS is recognized ratably over the contract period.
Previous report
We sell both perpetual and term-based licenses of our software. We refer to our term-based software licenses as subscription arrangements. We do not customize our software and installation services are not required. The software is delivered before related services are provided and is functional without professional services, updates and technical support. We have concluded that our software licenses (both perpetual and subscription) are functional intellectual property that is distinct, as the user can benefit from the software on its own. Revenues for both perpetual and term-based licenses is typically recognized when the software is delivered and/or made available for download as this is the point the user of the software can direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the functional intellectual property. We do not recognize software revenue related to the renewal of subscription software licenses earlier than the beginning of the new subscription period.
Previous report
We also offer software that integrates with appliances and address a wide range of business needs and use cases, ranging from support for remote or branch offices with limited IT staff up to large corporate data centers. These appliances are almost exclusively sold via a software only model in which we sell software to a third party, which assembles an integrated appliance that is sold to end user customers. As a result, the revenues and costs associated with hardware are usually not in our financial statements.

Our typical performance obligations include the following:
Previous report
–Total revenues increased $156.4 million, or 19% year over year, driven primarily by an increase in subscription revenue, partially offset by decreases in perpetual license and other services revenues. We remain focused on selling subscription arrangements through both term-based software licenses and SaaS offerings.
Previous report
–Subscription revenue increased $160.5 million, or 37% year over year, driven primarily by a 74% increase in our SaaS revenue. Term-based license revenue increased 22%, primarily due to an increase in the number of larger term-based license transactions (deals greater than $0.1 million) period over period and an increase in the average selling price of these transactions. Subscription revenue accounted for 59% of total revenues in fiscal 2025 compared to 51% in fiscal 2024.
Previous report
–Perpetual license revenue decreased $2.0 million, or 3% year over year. Our preferred route to market is led by the sale of term-based licenses. Perpetual licenses are generally only sold in certain verticals and geographies. Perpetual license revenue accounted for 6% of total revenues in fiscal 2025 compared to 7% in fiscal 2024.
Previous report
–Customer support revenue was flat compared to the same period of the prior year, driven by a $25.7 million decrease in customer support revenue attached to perpetual license support renewals, offset by a $25.5 million increase in customer support related to term-based license arrangements.
Previous report
–Other services revenue decreased $2.0 million, or 4% year over year. Changes in other services revenue can vary period over period primarily due to the timing professional services are delivered.
Previous report
▪The increase in the Americas total revenues was primarily due to increases of 40% and 12% in subscription and perpetual license revenues, respectively. Customer support and other services revenues declined 2% and 3%, respectively.
Previous report

–Restructuring: Our restructuring plan, initiated in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 and completed in fiscal 2025, was intended to enhance customer satisfaction through the reorganization and redesign of our customer success functions. The realignment of the customer success structure aimed to optimize operational efficiency and improve continuity for our customers through the pre-sales and post-sales experience. Restructuring expenses were $10.0 million and $4.5 million for the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These charges related primarily to severance and related costs associated with headcount reductions as well as costs related to office termination and exit charges. These expenses included $4.6 million in fiscal 2025 and $1.5 million in fiscal 2024 of stock-based compensation related to modifications of existing awards granted to certain employees impacted by the plan.

Previous report
A summary of the cash used for the stock repurchase program consists of the following:
Previous report
We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and our cash from operations will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital, income taxes, capital expenditures and potential stock repurchases for at least the next twelve months. We may seek additional funding through public or private financings or other arrangements during this period. Adequate funds may not be available when needed or may not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. If additional funds are raised by issuing equity securities, dilution to existing stockholders will result. If we raise additional funds by obtaining loans from third parties, the terms of those financing arrangements may include negative covenants or other restrictions on our business that could impair our operational flexibility and would also require us to fund additional interest expense. If funding is insufficient at any time in the future, we may be unable to develop or enhance our products or services, take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our customer support revenue includes support contracts tied to our software products. Customer support includes software updates on a when-and-if-available basis, telephone support, integrated web-based support, and other premium support offerings, for both term-based software license and perpetual software license arrangements. We sell our customer support contracts as a percentage of net software.

We sell to end-user customers both directly through our sales force and indirectly through our global network of value-added reseller partners, systems integrators, corporate resellers, OEMs and marketplaces. Subscription revenue generated through indirect distribution channels accounted for approximately 90% of total subscription revenue in recent fiscal years. Subscription revenue generated through direct distribution channels accounted for approximately 10% of total subscription revenue in recent fiscal years. Deals initiated by our direct sales force are sometimes transacted through indirect channels based on end-user customer requirements, which are not always in our control and can cause this overall percentage split to vary from period-to-period. As such, there may be fluctuations in the dollars and percentage of subscription revenue generated through our direct distribution channels from time-to-time. We believe that the growth of our subscription revenue, derived from both our indirect channel partners and direct sales force, are key attributes to our long-term growth strategy. We intend to continue to invest in both our channel relationships and direct sales force in the future, but we continue to expect more revenue to be generated through indirect distribution channels over the long term. The failure of our indirect distribution channels or our direct sales force to effectively sell our products and services could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations.

Sales outside the United States were 46% of our total revenues for fiscal 2025, 48% for fiscal 2024 and 47% for fiscal 2023. The income statements of our non-U.S. operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates for each applicable month in a period. To the extent the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currency denominated transactions generally results in increased revenue, operating expenses and income from operations for our non-U.S. operations. Similarly, our revenue, operating expenses and net income will generally decrease for our non-U.S. operations if the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies.

We base these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable and appropriate. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates.

We account for revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Our revenue recognition policies require us to make significant judgments and estimates. In applying our revenue recognition policy, we must determine which portions of our revenue are recognized currently (generally software-related revenue) and which portions must be deferred and recognized in future periods (generally SaaS, customer support, and other services revenue). We analyze various factors including, but not limited to, the selling price of undelivered services when sold on a stand-alone basis, our pricing policies, the creditworthiness of our customers, and contractual terms and conditions in helping us to make such judgments about revenue recognition. As most of our transactions go through indirect distribution channels, we are also required to make judgments around principal versus agent considerations and judgments around which party is our customer in multi-party arrangements. Changes in judgment on any of these factors could materially impact the timing and amount of revenue recognized in a given period. We recognize revenue net of sales tax.

Most of our contracts with customers contain multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, we evaluate and account for individual performance obligations separately if they are determined to be distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. Standalone selling prices of software licenses (both perpetual and term-based) are typically estimated using the residual approach. Standalone selling prices for SaaS, customer support contracts, and other services are typically estimated based on observable transactions when these services are sold on a standalone basis.

Under ASC 740, deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts. Valuation allowances are established when, in our judgment, it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we consider all available objective and verifiable evidence both positive and negative, including historical levels of pre-tax income or loss, both on a consolidated basis and tax reporting entity basis, legislative developments, expectations and risks associated with estimates of future pre-tax income, and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. At March 31, 2025 and 2024, we recorded a valuation allowance, which reflects uncertainties around our ability to generate sufficient income in certain jurisdictions to utilize our net deferred tax assets. At March 31, 2023, we had recorded a full valuation allowance as the realizability of the Company's gross deferred tax assets was not more likely than not. We believe, in the current period, it is more likely than not that we will have sufficient taxable income to realize our remaining deferred tax assets.

Goodwill represents the residual purchase price paid in a business combination after the fair value of all identified assets and liabilities have been recorded. We test goodwill for impairment at least annually, on January 1, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. We have one reporting unit. Goodwill is tested at this reporting unit level. We have elected to first assess the qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of our single reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. This may involve making judgments about a variety of factors that impact fair value, including business plans, anticipated future cash flows, economic projections, and other market data. If the qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying amount, a quantitative goodwill impairment test is performed. If the fair value exceeds the carrying amount, no further analysis is required; otherwise, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its fair value. Because there are inherent uncertainties involved in these factors, significant differences between these estimates and actual results could result in future impairment charges and could materially impact our future financial results. No impairment of goodwill has been identified during the years presented.

Goodwill is recorded when the consideration paid for an acquisition exceeds the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired.

The Credit Facility contains financial maintenance covenants including a leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio. The Credit Facility also contains certain customary events of default which would permit the lender to, among other things, declare all loans then outstanding to be immediately due and payable if such default is not cured within applicable grace periods. The Credit Facility also limits our ability to incur certain additional indebtedness, create or permit liens on assets, make acquisitions, make investments, loans or advances, sell or transfer assets, pay dividends or distributions, and engage in certain transactions with foreign affiliates. Outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility accrue interest at an annual rate equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 1.25% subject to increases based on our actual leverage. The unused balance on the Credit Facility is also subject to a 0.25% annual interest charge subject to increases based on our actual leverage.
