The company signed twelve seven-figure expansion deals and now has sixty-five percent of its revenue from their newer platform subscription model.

Guidance Management raised the full year earnings per share guidance by two cents to a range of one dollar fifty-eight to one dollar sixty-one per share. They are keeping the annual recurring revenue growth target of thirteen to fourteen percent and expect around two billion dollars in ARR by year-end.
