Tracy.
Good morning, and thank you for joining us.
For those of you with whom I have not yet met a bobcat <unk> chairman of the board and interim CEO.
As you know I stepped into this new role just a few weeks ago.
And while I will need some time before I can share with you my views on 2022 and beyond.
I thought I would give you some of my early observations on the business.
Today, I see a business with very strong assets and a solid foundation.
Citrix is you know as a leader in its markets. We're number one in the VDI Das market and we're number two in the ADC market and those market positions are supported by strong technology advantages.
The markets, we participate in are healthy and growing and our important VDI das business has some strong secular tailwind with trends supporting secure remote hybrid work.
We have a strong memorial customer base across the globe and we have a strong presence in every industry vertical.
And from a business perspective, we have proven success in our transition to the cloud with over $1 billion of sachet or and we have largely transitioned to our model to recurring revenues with over $3 billion.
Sure.
I believe the overall health and velocity of our business is best demonstrated by the fact that we expect our total AOR to grow nearly 10%. This year on an organic basis and I'll remind you of this growth is following your rather extraordinary year in 2020 that benefited from an unusual corporate demand.
Another important metrics signaling in the health of any recurring revenue businesses renewal rates and while we do not disclose our renewal rates I can say the rates are both strong and improving.
Theres lots of points so on a positive side, but I think it's fair to say, there's also been some missteps along the way, which is clearly overshadowing our success.
These missteps are largely in our go to market motion and then our own forecasting and I'm confident they're all fixable.
We need to shore up our channel programs and put in place a REIT and channel described with channel partners and we need to focus sales investments on direct selling quota carrying individuals' and eliminate excess investments and overlays and shared commissions.
I'm going to address all of these issues as part of our planning for 2022, and I will share more of that with you as part of our Q4 earnings call. Much of this work is underway, but not yet complete.
I can say however, the objectives for this work are very clear, we strive to be more predictable delivering solid growth again in our total AOR, along with better margins and cash flow.
My priority is to set us on a course to deliver long term sustainable growth and profitability I know we are capable of achieving.
I'm very happy to be in this role I look forward to working with the rest of the management team to achieve these objectives and I look forward to talking with many of you over the coming months.
That said, let me now open the call for your questions.
Ladies and gentlemen at this time, we'll begin the question and answer session.
To ask a question you May press Star and then one sort of draw your questions you May press star two.
If you are using a speaker phone, we do ask that you. Please pickup your handset before pressing the keys.
So with your all your questions you May press star into.
We will pause momentarily to assemble the roster.
Okay.
And our first question comes from Kirk <unk> from Evercore ISI. Please go ahead with your question.
Okay. Yeah. Thanks, very much Bob just a couple of things maybe as you settle in I assume by your comments there is not going to be any changes to the go to market motion for the fourth quarter or anything that would be change would be in the beginning of next year and then I guess secondly on the go to market side can you just talk a little bit more about the channel.
Kind of what's gone on this year, that's that hasn't worked meaning is it gives us visibility into the channel pipeline isn't there has just been execution between sort of your expectations and what the channels delivered I'm trying to get a little bit better sense of whats maybe gone wrong on that front.
And how do you think about correcting it a relative again you're just.
Getting an early view on that.
Yeah, Kirk certainly look the company talked about I think in an earlier conference call about some of the changes that were made to the channel over the past year or two.
That reduced our profitability.
Some of our channel partners business as it related to the Citrix and really some changes in our compensation program, which I think are need to be tweaked.
The issue really was.
Was about how we're compensating them in shifting our channel partners the channels still there the channel hasn't gone away, they're not selling.
Somebody elses products, so just focusing on other parts of their business.
And like any part of the sales organization and channel as part of our sales organization, we want to make it more profitable for them to do business with us. So there are a few actions we've taken.
We've already started to take with.
Our channel partners in order to make the business more attractive to them.
Was we recently moved over some of our stalled and uncovered pipeline and we're sharing that with them to give them leads and opportunities.
So new business we've also.
Modified some of our compensation program, so think of it as like a stress on them.
The short term here to encourage more focus.
On the Citrix business, we're going to do things in a more structured way for 2022 like compensation plans you typically start the amount at the beginning of the year. So it will be more structured in our approach in 2022, but we didn't want to wait.
Before we put some incentives in place and.
Alright, what's causing that headwind in terms of where they are happening I think we should have to wait a couple of quarters and looking to make sure. It is it is the transition, but nothing more than that.
Thank you all.
Our next question comes from caller Raki from City. Please go ahead with your question.
Hey, good morning, and welcome back Bob.
Wanted to just ask you you know kind of some initial thoughts on the the restructuring actions you announce tier for Q4, obviously the company has been through a lot in terms of realignment over the years and and just kind of curious where you see the biggest areas of low hanging fruit and and just kind of what your initial take on the the cost actually.
Alright, thank you.
Yeah, well the first thing I'd say is so.
Everything we're doing in terms of the <unk>.
Restructuring this first and foremost focused on growth.
I think.
It's just something I have long believed that any business that is focused does a better job on execution and that includes not only marching submit that includes.
So we are.
Looking to ensure that will making all of the necessary investments such support our growth and we're looking to remove distractions that not only depression margins, but distract us from growth. So I can focus was an important part of it I think.
The other thing I would say about it is we were going to keep or increase our direct quota caring individuals and we're going to increase I mentioned earlier.
We're gonna be making some changes in our making changes that will increase the compensation network provider.
Providing to our channel partners. So this is again in support of growth there'll be more investment and instead of front line and revenue generating aspects of our business and then with that said I think we're gonna get more efficient and other parts of the business. So I think one of the.
One of the things I've found early on and I'm, saying to go to market organization as we introduced.
Far too many overlaid over the last 12 to 18 months and and we've got two men against it says where we have too many people getting compensated on the same deal I don't think that's.
I don't think that's a good thing I think that not only adds more cost I think it also takes away shelves capacity at the same time. So we're looking to drive a lot of those changes of your organization and then another parts of the organization minority. It really is the product portfolio again, the things that are most important to us that are closely tied to our growth in D. D.
Dash E D C and then our content solutions, we're going to show up and make sure we're making all of the investments and eat them in those areas and anything else.
We don't have a lot of confidence and that's gonna be a material driver of growth.
To remove removed, though so I'm confident at the end of it will have an organization better position to grow and I think one that will also see margins improve and drive significantly more more cash flow I definitely see 2021 is a trough year for both.
Sergeant <unk> and cash flow. So I think we're going to come out of there so much stronger company and and one that can deliver and create more value.
Yeah, and maybe the follow up on the the free cash flow and I don't know if that makes sense for Ireland, but obviously just from the the the looks of the performance year to date and and kind of initial comments or for key for it looks like free passes can be down pretty significantly this year and and I'm just wonder.
If you could unpack kind of the the drivers of that you know how much is related to the to the restructuring kind of one time items and and if we can kind of think about the 2020th the.
Kind of a more of a normalized uhm growth rate just any any comments you can kind of bridge between what's implied in free cash flow for 2021, what can be driven by one time items relative to what you saw last year. Thank you.
Tyler I would think of it first of all you know there's a lot of moving parts of the guy slow and for us to come to normalize with dessert.
Very complicated so one of the reasons we highlighted in your letter was the fact that we have been quick compensation expands and 21 does he try to help drive the conversation for for your billing, which is what is normal life for gasoline it looks like I need to be able to get a multiyear basis and you think about how we're gonna drive the company I think it's fair to think of it as much more stable.
And your box at a trough cause there are factors that go into that that being said we haven't included obviously it was pretty casual guidance for the year and we haven't taken into account anything that might happen as a result of a restructure. So that's not included in April we might deal, but I think of your concept I'm thinking about free cash flow and one of them a little more.
Normalized basis, if you were to look at the last few years is probably an accurate way to think about it can cancel it.
Yeah, I think this year.
In a truck we do have some some cash flow headwinds. This year that were spillover in Charlotte said from last year last year's revenue growth.
<unk>, but I think drove a lot of added commissions and and bonus Susan at March when he gets paid out in the first quarter of the following year. So that spillover so at least $100 million I'd say from last year.
This year.
And then as you can see our margins are down this year. So that's you know we shouldn't have that spillover effect next year and I won't quantify the margin improvement yet is premature but will reverse will reverse a headwind on margin. So I I expect cash flows to you know to be.
Are you on an inflection point here off of 2021 and get back on the right track.
Have a much higher levels and becoming a year or two.
Thank you.
Our next question comes from Mark Modeler from Bernstein Research. Please go ahead with your question.
Thank you very much for taking my question I know, it's a lot you have going on I'm getting up to speed on two questions. If you don't mind, a big portion of the complexity the problems of Citrix was.
It was the fact that he was selling both perpetual licenses term licenses and cloud and you've now got rid of perpetual licenses for work space, which is a good step from what are your plans for term licenses can you modify them to make them radically recognize or you can just been sent to sell term licenses and then I have a follow up on it.
Oh look I think the.
Yeah there's.
There's a.
Not a whole model and then there's a delivery model on the rateable model.
Or a recurring basis, we've moved we've largely moved all of our revenue store recurring revenue, it's not all out of all but it's all recurring and I think that's the most important thing cause I think we will increase the lifetime revenue from our customers by doing that.
As far as driving the delivery model I think it's wrong to try to force a customer to a delivery model that doesn't work for them. We can incent them. We can encourage him and I think we've largely done that and you see the growth and our <unk> business well over a billion dollars now and slashed revenue is growing nicely, but I.
When we any company that tries to force customers to do something.
That's not in your best interest is probably not a good thing to do so I feel really good that we've got the business recurring.
And while it would be easier to follow us if it was all rateable I think the best Metro now look at is it itchy annualize recurring revenue on a total basis I think that sorts out all the noise of the business model transition to Russell sure shop, the militia of having different licensing models and if we look at that I'm very encouraged by the way.
<unk>, we have 13% growth and that metric go through three quarters of this year were saying for the full year will be approximately 10, 10% for the full year and I feel really good about that and I think that as a metric. That's most important to me I'm understanding the health and velocity of the business.
And I think we can provide that transparency for investors.
Being that additional recurring revenue and edit that.
Something you'll see an increase in focus on both Austin terminally and I think an hour marketing messages out to.
Could you in to other investors as well so that's.
That's really good now I do think customers are naturally going to migrate so the cloud delivery model, we just want them to do that alright, and pace that makes sense for them because.
Citrix infrastructure is often times tied to a much bigger decision around the cloud not just about Citrix and I think we've got to recognize that reality.
Lower than we've seen for many many of the companies in the industry.
What pulls it down to 1.7 years is it the term licenses networking software any color would be appreciated.
Yeah, I I think you cut out there for a second Martha but I think the question was about duration of about one seven and I think I have a way to think about it but first of all we're we're happy with 178.
You recognize that he compared to the fourth quarter when we get a high is a high for us and obviously, if we continue to shop fast licenses. We expect all continuing to go up that being said the combination of the transmission of the 83 business because it was.
It was on the phone as well as the the fast business is perfect in a position, where we're gonna have modifications for that duration and some of those finger confirmation contract from those are gonna be the.
The transfer from the business, but with where we are we're happy with where we are in terms of art for I shall we expect I'll continue to go up but we're not gonna do anything to push that out fast or other than your transaction itself with a cool overtime that.
That makes sense I appreciate it. Thank you guys. Yeah. This is great. This is a great example of my earlier point about why the focus that should be on a R. R cause of duration goes up or down I mean, obviously duration I'd, rather shine longer term gilson shorter term deals, but it's duration goes up or down to create some noise and reported revenues and.
You know, we could be having a good quarter, but have less duration or that could be a misleading indicator and vice versa. So I'm gonna increasingly point everybody to a R. R. S.
The trick that normalizes all of that and I think that's gonna be a better indicator of our you know underlying health and velocity.
Thank you I appreciate that makes sense.
Our next question comes from Brent fell from Jeffries. Please go ahead with your question.
Thanks, Bob just I Wanna talk true when you talk about the confidence of the trough in the margin of cash flow and most companies that are less than 15% penetrated the cloud and have a number of the items that you listed on your to do list you know it it seems like there's there's quite a bit.
Bit of investment that you have to put in what what what gives you confidence given all of those investments that you can manage through that that's been the trough here.
Look I I I I I'm, a firm believer that a businesslike citrix software business on our scale could do both I think that we can grow at reasonable levels and I think we can have respectable profitability.
Our our margins went down this year, largely because we <expletive> unrealistic expectations at the beginning of the year for a level of bookings that were greater than what was a surge in 2020 I think.
Everyone would would.
I don't think so it would be a surprise that booking levels would be lower this year than 2020, but they are higher than the trend line. If we look past 2020, I'm looking at the pre Colby trend mind at higher and I think we would have felt a lot differently about the year, if we had a better.
Think better internal forecasting about this year looked like but you know a lot of negative things happen when you're not realistic you know the first thing is your mind upsetting quotas too high that's not good for yourself for US you also allow spending to come into the company for revenue that you're not gonna get and you saw the margins of the business come down from 30%.
Last year to 26% me thereabouts for 2021 I think this was a margin restoration program. These are all you know very fixable operating.
So we have to work on I was like set up my comments earlier. This is not about limiting growth. This is about funding gross but anything that isn't funding growth through just a distraction and we're gonna we're gonna walk and Chew gum I think we can do both and disorganization could do it.
And and maybe you know anytime a new leader comes and there's concern about you know.
How big the shake up is going to be when when you think about kind of the fine tuned versus overhaul how how would you characterize the magnitude of changes you Wanna make.
Strategies in tact. This is a business that has a lot of challenge I think the remote hybrid work is here to stay I think there is a lot.
A lot of secular televisions in this business that should fuel growth.
For quite some time I feel really good about that I don't think the strategy needs to be overhauled at all I think these are fixable operational things, yeah, sometimes companies focused on growth and only gross and I think it takes more than that to run a successful business. I think you can be operationally sound and you can grow a business.
Some either neither or both.
Where where where where are choking off growth might have been a little better margin or we have in this business.
Thank you.
Our next question comes from Karl <unk> from you B S. Please go ahead with your question.
Oh, Thanks, Barbara just to follow up on that last question when.
When you say that the the strategy doesn't need an overhaul and these are fixable operational issues that sends a signal that you're really not contemplating the the outright exit or sale of any major citrix businesses or product lines and I noticed he did express a commitment to the ADC.
C. As a service is that the correct interpretation Bob.
Oh, where at three businesses largely today, we're in the VDI Dash business. We're in the eighties, she business and we're in content solutions, largely the right business because of it.
When I think about the business that we're in and so I feel good about all three of those businesses. So we are investing in 80. She has a serviceable continue to do that I C. A b C. As an important part of war VDI and Dash solutions, so were largely going to stay another three businesses, but like.
Every company there's always.
Investments that are being made around the edges of all of that stuff and sometimes those investments or center just stick to what what we're doing and sometimes those investments are I think distractions and so that's where we're doing the portfolio analysis all right now if it's going to have a meaningful.
Contribution to the growth, it's going to get well funded and if it isn't it's going to get defund. It got.
It's it's clear.
We're doing that so you know at a high level no change always.
She got a detail level that has to be some.
Some some change what I think it's gonna be something that will support growth not not limit growth companies that can put more wood behind fewer arrows. When are you going to be more successful than companies are spread themselves too thin across too many too many priorities. Okay that makes sense I want New York basically I've been.
Telling me organization since I got here when everything was important nothing is important so we have to focus on what's important got it makes sense I guess one of the other things that I I think it's important that I haven't heard as much on on this call is around [noise] Alright that was you know citrix is largest acquisition by far off for the last several years.
Yes, I did notice that you trimmed your a R. R. A guy at a little bit for Reich Ah Bob Arlene, what what's the plan to perhaps do a better job around driving Ah synergies and reducing attrition around right such that that can be an important part of the the growth story at Citrix.
Yeah look like a company did change it's a forecast for the full year. A R went from you know 180 to 90 million estimate to 170 180 showed so from that point of view I think.
It's slightly underperformed earlier expectations, what he's still growing nicely I think we've got mid twenties kind of growth in the air are there so it's sort of good.
Growth business I see it as continuing to be accretive solid growth.
And I think we can do better than at the market is growing pretty strong enough business and we have a a.
A good product like like all acquisitions I think there's always some.
Confusion that happens with an organization after an acquisition and I think some of that is true here.
But again, that's I see that as temporary and all of those things can can get settled down and start driving to a higher level of growth.
Okay terrific best of luck and and these initiatives.
Great. Thanks.
Our next question comes from Sundry things from Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead with your question.
Thank you ever see him again and thanks, a lot for taking my question. The question really is around what do you think the source of the issue isn't that sort of listened to the questions that have been given and your answers and it seems to me that.
You really pointing at kind of the efficiency of the business and the efficiency of operations rather than the.
The pace of the cloud transit and I, just want to make sure that I'm I'm sort of interpreting that correctly when you look at the.
B a R R a growth and more importantly, the 15% of the base has moved on the cloud.
Are you happy with those metrics I mean, we always want you know things to get better, but you know high level do you do you think that pace that we've seen over the last you know four to six quarters has that been the pace that you guys have been satisfied with that just sort of the efficiency at what's your you.
You know executing through the crowd physicians being more of the issue.
No I I I I I don't think it's so the right way to read this at the the focus is on efficiencies versus pace.
Patient translation I think quite the contrary.
[noise] Yeah to me.
Lost city at a business is the number one focus and there. It's on total a R. R and no a 13 per cent growth across the board I think that's been really good this year.
At that level, there clearly we want to continue to drive the pace of transmission, that's not only Michelle sore cloud platform, but also moving existing customers offer one prim and onto the.
The cloud platform and that's accelerating and I think that's a continued focus of the company. There. So don't don't mistake. The comments that we want to have higher margins with notes priority overgrowth growth as a number one priority, but like I said earlier, we can we can both continue to feel all gross and.
And also be a more profitable companies and we are in 2021.
Margins it and come down this year, because we were too much growth on margins came down because we made a couple of mistakes.
Go to market motion that we need to clean up.
And are willing to clean them up.
Understood and just to follow up on the on the on the broader margin question I think if we take a step back philosophically and we would talk about six o'clock transition over the last several years I think that's it the distinctive instead of the message into the market that we're gonna have a clock physician and broadly.
Margins revenue growth and cast, though we're all going to uhm improve during during this transition to subscription and then ultimately to sauce, which is distinctive right at most other software companies that are going through a crowd transition the message to investors typically hey, we have to digest a period of.
Potentially slower growth, maybe lower margins, but but you did that cause a atomics of art cloud tradition are so compelling that you come out the other side looking looking really strong so the classical position. So understanding like you know you're you're getting investing direct salespeople to drive that growth, but philosophically. This like the the the the point around growing Margaret.
Cash flow is it in concert with it with the sauce transition does that do you feel confident that still the right path to go.
Yes, I think again, we're not we're not emphasizing margins overgrowth.
This I should maybe call. This a margin restoration program.
Will improve our margins, but the number one focus is on on the growth and in supporting Big transition and I think the companies, making good progress on that transmission and a lot of the changes that we're talking about here I think are going to be focused around like I said, we're gonna increase the direct quota carrying individuals.
We're going to increase the channel investments at a drive in the front line, we're gonna take away things that aren't adding the growth just chatting to expense I mean, having a bunch of overlays that are not directly accountable for delivering.
Delivering shelves and having shared compensation doesn't add to growth.
That investment would be better made somewhere else, if you're really hungry son gross and that's that's what we're looking to do so well, we we I haven't checked the objective jet for 2022, I'm Gonna just given a directional showrooms at this point.
You know there are 2021, and say trafigura for both margin and cash flow but.
Don't leave that to think it's in lieu of groceries in support of growth growth is our number one objective.
I appreciate all the thoughts about taking.
And our next question comes from Dan burst from from RBC Capital markets. Please go ahead with your question.
Can you guys hear me.
Yes, yes, Sir we can hear you now Oh, okay. Yeah. This is actually met Hubbard. So yeah I guess, Bob is first of all it's good to hear your voice you know I I was encouraged to hear you know that you noted renewal rates are strong and improving which is really good to hear and I guess when you. When you sort of you know I know.
And I know you're sort of just kind of looking at whether you process, but.
You know I guess, what what gives you confidence that that that can continue you know into into this you know you know period of change and and focus on growth and margin.
Well I think I I I think that's an indication of the strength of our business and I said look there's a narrative out there right now that's questioning their health and the stress of the business out there and I think the submission forms I think we'd go out of business sure that's very healthy.
She can see that reflected in the growth an hour a R. Arthur <unk> I think you can see it in the fact that we have very strong renewal rates and they're getting better that's a sign of a very healthy business in a very healthy competitive environment and I think on the on the point of competition.
Out there I would point out that Microsoft is a big partner of ours.
And that again this is a little bit contrary to to the narrative right now, but yeah, we partner with them.
Because it's a symbiotic relationship to where they see a lot of value and moving citrix infrastructure to Asher it drives a lot of asher consumption and as conditions for us. So do most deals that were working on Microsoft as a partner.
We monitor the deal so we have a significant uptick in both the number of deals that were working on jointly and you'll also see a significant uptick in the size of those deals that were working out with Microsoft. So I think there's a lot of metrics here that are very very encouraging that are in.
Consistent with the narrative out there and I think part of that.
Narrowed her but I think there's some of our own doing because we obviously stumbled in the first couple of quarters. This year and and just missed a reported revenue objectives and and that's the reason why I'm pointing to a R. R to say throughout all of that noise, we have really solid double digit growth and our a O R and all the other metrics so it should.
You have strengths and our business severe low rates partnership with Microsoft.
I look at the.
Look at the the sash gross if I look at the transition of our existing customers form on crammed sort of cloud. These are all to me votes of confidence in the business and making that transition to the citrix cloud some of our biggest and most complicated customers I'm make.
Thing that moved to me, that's a tremendous motor confidence and the Citrix business long term and that I think is part of the reason why we should be strung renewal rates.
Oh God that's helpful.
That's helpful. Bob and then you know obviously you know Citrix is it's really sort of built upon you know.
Really enabling flexible work hybrid work you know if you started talking to customers maybe more directly in your new role.
Yeah, how how do you see that it's I mean, you know that you know to tailwinds across a lot of your businesses. You know how important is citrix in that narrative of sort of post COVID-19 hybrid work cause it. It. It always struck me that you guys are should be really well positioned to to leverage a lot of learnings since 2020.
Well I think it's very important in fact.
Might even be more important you know last year was a mad scramble for a lot of companies Citrix Scott.
A lot of benefit from that and there was a lot of pain.
Incremental business.
10 hour away, but there was a lot of.
Do a lot of different ways companies solve this big problem last year and I think over time people are gonna start to realize that.
Remote work has a very big security aspect to it and they're very big performance aspect to it not just Ah connectivity aspect to it and I think.
[noise] remote hybrid work becomes more permanent and not reactive I think it's gonna move more towards the use cases, where a citrix actually has strengths I mean, one of the big advantages Citrix is our performance levels of the Ht X technology that we have an old DDI I mean, that's something that is you know.
Orders of magnitude more more performance in any other form of facilitating remote hybrid work, so actually thinking as a security becomes a bigger and bigger issue I think it's gonna move more towards complex use cases that require citrix and also.
But some of your other alternatives at a disadvantage out there. So this is a secular tell wind but is.
That is real and it is going to be there forever and I think somebody underlying currents awesome moving citrix direction as well.
Okay. Thanks, a lot of best of luck.
Great. Thank you.
And ladies and gentlemen, with that will be concluding today's question and answer session I'd like to turn the floor back over to Bob Calderone for any closing remarks.
Alright. Thanks, Thanks, everyone for joining us today I just want to leave you with a few.
Final thoughts as I mentioned in a number of my comments I feel terrific about the strength of the underlying business, our progress and the rate and pace I'm moving to the cloud is all good. It's also got a movie to recurring work revenues, that's all going well and we have a good momentum and the overall health of.
The business reflected in our AOR growth for 2021.
And it nearly 10%.
Like like every business there are things, we can get better at I.
I believe we've got an understanding of what they are working on a plan to deliver continued success in 2022 and beyond and.
