Q & A Highlights
Q: Could you help us decompose the fiscal Q4 guidance reduction on an organic subscription base?
A: Pierre Naude, CEO: The reduction is primarily due to increased churn and the fact that mortgage rates have not decreased despite the reduction in the Fed's fund rate. We are being cautious and prudent in our outlook for Q4, given these factors.
Q: How are the other pieces of the business performing outside of mortgage, and how is the pipeline shaping up for Q4?
A: Pierre Naude, CEO: We have signed significant deals internationally, including in the Nordics and Japan. In the U.S., we signed a large enterprise deal shortly after Q3, which was the largest remaining deal for the year. The pipeline for the rest of the year is focused on smaller deals, and we are optimistic about executing them.
Q: Can you provide more color on the intelligent solution framework and its reception by customers?
A: Pierre Naude, CEO: We are receiving positive feedback as the framework aligns with the bank's success and simplifies the buying experience. Customers appreciate the value tied to their loan portfolios, and the renewal process has been easier and simpler.
Q: Are there any updates or customer feedback from the initial cohort of banking advisor customers?
A: Pierre Naude, CEO: We added 11 new banking advisor customers this quarter. The adoption is positive, and we are excited about the potential to add more skills to the product. The initial rollout is slow due to regulatory requirements, but we expect to showcase significant productivity improvements at our next conference.
Q: How do you view the cross-sell opportunities with new acquisitions like Full Circle?
A: Pierre Naude, CEO: Cross-sell is already proving successful, with more than 50% of bookings coming from non-commercial products. Acquisitions like Full Circle enhance our onboarding capabilities and are expected to drive significant cross-sell opportunities once fully integrated.
