You've only been here for a month, but I appreciate having you here on the call today. Since we made our announcement on 11 August, we've met with hundreds of shareholders, analysts, and investors, and it's been great for me to renew old acquaintances. I thank all of you who said that I haven't aged a day since the last time you saw me. I wish that was true. This has allowed us an opportunity to communicate to you a simpler strategy for the company, to unlock the value that OpenText has.

Speaker #6: His leadership scaled and developed our company as a leader and enterprise information management . And Steve , a well , warm welcome to you and welcome to OpenText .

Speaker #6: You've only been here for a month , but I appreciate having you here on the call today . Since we made our announcement on August 11th , we've met with hundreds of shareholders and analysts and investors , and it's been great for me to renew old acquaintances .

Speaker #6: And I thank all of you who said that I haven't aged a day since the last time you saw me . I wish that was true .

Speaker #6: This has allowed us an opportunity to communicate to you a simpler strategy for the company to unlock the value that OpenText has . We're going to concentrate on our core business units and enterprise information management .

Tom Jenkins: We're gonna concentrate on our core business units in enterprise information management, and specifically those that provide the training for the new area around enterprise artificial intelligence. You'll hear us use the term Agentic AI as well, and more on that in a minute. After all, it makes sense for us because OpenText is one of the biggest, we think it's the biggest, but it's certainly one of the biggest corporate data and metadata vendors in the world with hundreds of connectors to legacy and current datasets. That's a powerful asset inside OpenText for AI, and we plan to unlock it. We'll do this first, though, by selling off all our non-core business units and using those proceeds to further create shareholder value. That's really our end goal. In a way, what is old is new again.

Speaker #6: And specifically those that provide the training for the new area around enterprise artificial intelligence . You'll hear us use the term Agentic AI as well , and more on that in a minute .

Speaker #6: After all, it makes sense for us because OpenText is one of the biggest. We think it's the biggest, but it's certainly one of the biggest corporate data and metadata vendors in the world.

Speaker #6: With hundreds of connectors to legacy and current data sets, that's a powerful asset inside OpenText for AI, and we plan to unlock it.

Speaker #6: We'll do this first , though , by selling off all our non-core business units and using those proceeds to further create shareholder value .

Speaker #6: And that's really our end goal . And so in a way , what is old is new again , we're going back to our historical roots of being a content management company .

Tom Jenkins: We're going back to our historical roots of being a content management company, except this time we have additional products in business networks and machine management wrapped in an enterprise class security layer. That will be our core business. We already have the global scale, the go-to-market sales force, the product line in these businesses. The core of our core, which is the content management business, is also our largest business unit at about 40% of our total revenue. It also happens to be the fastest growing, with on average more than 20% cloud growth over the past few years. It was a pretty obvious strategic decision by the board to take these actions. We now have the entire company from the board, the exec management team, to our 20,000-plus strong global workforce aligned and locked into achieving our FY 2026 objectives and beyond.

Speaker #6: Except this time we have additional products in business networks and machine management wrapped in an enterprise class security layer that will be our core business .

Speaker #6: We already have the global scale , the go to market sales force , the product line in these businesses , and the core of our core , which is the content management business , is also our largest business unit , at about 40% of our total revenue .

Speaker #6: So it was a pretty obvious strategic decision by the board to take these actions . We now have the entire company from the board , the exec management team , to our 20,000 plus strong global workforce aligned and locked into achieving our FY 26 objectives and beyond .

Speaker #6: We're going to stick to our plan . There are early signs that we may be even going faster towards the cloud , as the year goes on , and as we shed the non-core units , our cloud content business will be soon the dominant share of all of our revenue sources .

Tom Jenkins: We're gonna stick to our plan. There are early signs that we may be even going faster towards the cloud as the year goes on. As we shed the non-core units, our cloud content business will be soon the dominant share of all of our revenue sources. That's our goal. We'll keep reporting our business unit breakout as we go through this journey so that you can track right along with us our progress towards that goal. Speaking of progress, if you take our 11 August release and some of the short-term priorities that we said we would address, I'm pleased to report we've addressed almost all of them. We've had a very busy 90 days, and the next 90 days will be just as busy. As I mentioned, we started by providing additional transparency with all of the revenue breakout performance for our business units.

Speaker #6: That's our goal . We'll keep reporting our business unit breakout as we go through this journey , so that you can track right along with us our progress towards that goal .

Speaker #6: So speaking of progress , if you take our August 11th release and some of the short term priorities that we said we would address , I'm pleased to report we've addressed almost all of them .

Speaker #6: We've had a very busy 90 days , and the next 90 days will be just as busy . As I mentioned , we started by providing additional transparency with all of the revenue breakout performance for our business units .

Speaker #6: We did this in early September so that you could track along with us on our progress. That's where you saw the strength of the cloud growth.

Tom Jenkins: We did this in early September so that you could track along with us on our progress. That's where you saw the strength of the cloud growth. In fact, last year, Content Cloud grew 17%, and this quarter it grew 21% year over year, and that's the acceleration I was referring to. Clearly, our content management customers are moving even faster to the cloud, and this will start to change our revenue mix slightly in our plan, but it's an indication that we're moving faster to becoming a fully cloud-centric company. Now, of course, we appointed Steve Rae as our permanent CFO, and he of course has a solid background in financial and operational reporting.

Speaker #6: In fact , last year , content Cloud grew 17% . And this quarter it grew 21% year over year . And that's the acceleration I was referring to .

Speaker #6: So clearly our content management customers are moving even faster to the cloud . And this will start to change our revenue mix slightly in our plan .

Speaker #6: But it's an indication that we're moving faster to becoming a fully cloud centric company . Now , of course , we appointed Steve Ray as our permanent CFO , and he , of course has a solid background and financial and operational reporting , and even more so with his background at BlackBerry .

Tom Jenkins: Even more so with his background at BlackBerry, he has a lot of experience in portfolio shaping, so we welcome that wisdom to the management team. This was followed by our first announcement of a non-core business unit sale within the analytics business, as has already been mentioned. It's an on-premise piece of software, so that will help the pivot towards cloud even further as we shed the non-core units. We also talked about the refreshment of the board, and recently we appointed a new board member, George Schindler. He's the former CEO of global IT consulting giant CGI.

Speaker #6: He has a lot of experience in portfolio shaping , so we welcome that wisdom to the management team . This was followed by our first announcement of a non-core business unit sale within the analytics business has already been mentioned .

Speaker #6: It's an on premise piece of software , so that will help the pivot towards cloud even further . As we shed the non-core units .

Speaker #6: We also talked about the refreshment of the board and recently we appointed a new board member , George Schindler . He's the former CEO of global .

Speaker #6: IT consulting giant CGI . He's a fantastic addition to the board , brings valuable perspective . And now includes other members that we've announced in the past year , such as the senior partner and technology .

Tom Jenkins: He's a fantastic addition to the board, brings valuable perspective, and now includes other members that we've announced in the past year, such as the senior partner in technology and telecom from Accenture, the chief human resources officer of Hewlett Packard, and the CIO of Cisco, among just the new members that we've announced in the past year. We're quickly retooling everything at OpenText. Yesterday, we published our Q1 fiscal 2026 results. That demonstrates the resilience of the business and the continued demand for OpenText Content Cloud and AI. We're focused on the right market at the right time. It leaves us with one major priority remaining, which is to find a permanent CEO. The search is ongoing, both internal and external candidates, and I'm pleased to note that we have had many world-class candidates step up and put their hat in the ring for consideration by our search committee.

Speaker #6: And telecom from Accenture . The chief human resources officer of Hewlett Packard , the CIO of Cisco . Among just the new members that we've announced in the past year .

Speaker #6: So we're quickly retooling everything at OpenText . Yesterday , we published our Q1 fiscal 26 results that demonstrates the resilience of the business and the continued demand for content , cloud and AI .

Speaker #6: We're focused on the right market , at the right time . It leaves us with one major priority remaining , which is to find a permanent CEO .

Speaker #6: The search is ongoing . Both internal and external candidates , and I'm pleased to note that we have had many world class candidates step up and put their hat in the ring for consideration by our search committee .

Speaker #6: Our goal is to find a leader who is solutions-focused and to help us elevate to the next phase of the OpenText journey. In the meantime, I'd like to thank James for stepping in as interim CEO.

Tom Jenkins: Our goal is to find a leader who's solutions focused and to help us elevate to the next phase of OpenText's journey. In the meantime, I'd like to thank James McGourlay for stepping in as interim CEO. He's been a steady hand leading the operations of the company, and to Cosmin Balota for leading the financial group. As you can see from the results, they've both done a great job stepping up on short notice. OpenText is on a solid financial and operational foundation of growing long-term margin and free cash flow. We're committed to unlocking shareholder value through our capital allocation strategy, which will include reducing debt, paying a dividend, share buybacks, and tuck-in M&A. With all of this, we're committed to providing investors with clear, simple, transparent metrics so you can better understand our business and performance and follow along with us on this journey.

Speaker #6: He's been a steady hand leading the operations of the company, and Todd Cione has done a great job leading the financial group. As you can see from the results, they've both done a great job stepping up on short notice.

Speaker #6: OpenText is on a solid financial and operational foundation of growing long term margin and free cash flow , and we're committed to unlocking shareholder value through our capital allocation strategy , which will include reducing debt , paying a dividend share , buybacks and tuck in M&A .

Speaker #6: And with all of this , we're committed to providing investors with clear , simple , transparent metrics so you can better understand our business and performance and follow along with us on this journey .

Speaker #6: Let's turn to our strategy now and how OpenText plays an important role for our customers in Agentic AI . We provided some slides and obviously we're also going to speak at our user conference and Analyst Day next week .

Tom Jenkins: Let's turn to our strategy now and how OpenText plays an important role for our customers in agentic AI. We provided some slides, we're also going to speak at our user conference and analyst day next week, as James had mentioned. A lot more detail to come, but we thought we'd give you an overview of what you'll be seeing next week. It really falls around a recent MIT study on agentic AI, which indicated that the importance to productivity that AI must be trained by specific content that can only be found inside the firewall of organizations. Keep in mind that many of the world's first, most amazing GenAI products like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude were all primarily trained on public information. Public information only represents about 10% of the world's information.

Speaker #6: As James had mentioned . So a lot more detail to come . But we thought we'd give you an overview of what you'll be seeing next week .

Speaker #6: And it really falls around our recent MIT study on a AI , which indicated that the importance to productivity that AI must be trained by specific content that can only be found inside the firewall of organizations .

Speaker #6: Keep in mind that many of the world's first , most amazing gen AI products like ChatGPT and Perplexity and Cloud were all primarily trained on public information .

Speaker #6: Now , public information only represents about 10% of the world's information . About 90% of that information is behind the firewall . In fact , many years ago , OpenText wrote a book called Behind the Firewall that described where all this information is and how you find it and how you use it .

Tom Jenkins: About 90% of that information is behind the firewall. In fact, many years ago, OpenText wrote a book called Behind the Firewall that described where all this information is and how you find it and how you use it. Now, of course, most of that was built as records management and archive for regulated industries, and OpenText was the leader in all of that. That positions us with an enormous access to all the data. As you know, we have hundreds of thousands of organizations all throughout the world that we've built these systems for over the past 35 years. That's really the goldmine for customers that are seeking to build productivity-related agentic AI. We'll provide a lot more information on that. Where does that apply to OpenText?

Speaker #6: Now , of course , most of that was built as records management and archive for Regulated Industries and OpenText was the leader in all of that .

Speaker #6: So that positions us with an enormous access to all the data . And so , as you know , we have hundreds of thousands of organizations all throughout the world that we built these systems for over the past 35 years .

Speaker #6: That's really the goldmine for customers that are seeking to build productivity related Agentic AI . So we'll provide a lot more information on that .

Speaker #6: But where does that apply to OpenText ? Well , OpenText in enterprise Information management , it's got data stored in three major business units that we've broken out for you today in content .

Tom Jenkins: Well, OpenText in enterprise information management, it's got data stored in three major business units that we've broken out for you today. In content, our ITOM, and our business networks. These products, our users are able to use their own data to train agentic AI that's way more powerful for anything that's available in the public domain. That's why we call this enterprise artificial intelligence, in the same way that we used to call it enterprise information management, and before that, enterprise content management. What is old is new again, and we're returning to our roots, and we think that there's an enormous demand for this as we go forward. Now, we're also seeing an interesting change around proprietary clouds, and in the case of governments, they call it a sovereign cloud. Users don't want to lose the keys to their castle.

Speaker #6: Our item and our business networks . These products are users are able to use their own data to train a AI that's way more powerful for anything that's available in the public domain .

Speaker #6: So that's why we call this enterprise artificial intelligence . In the same way that we used to call it enterprise information management . And before that , enterprise content management .

Speaker #6: So what is old is new again . And we're returning to our roots . And we think that there's an enormous demand for this as we go forward .

Speaker #6: Now we're also seeing an interesting change around proprietary clouds . And in the case of governments , they call it a sovereign cloud .

Speaker #6: Users don't want to lose the keys to their castle . AI is very different than just storing data . And our users are starting to find that they want to be very careful how they construct clouds that use AI .

Tom Jenkins: AI is very different than just storing data, and our users are starting to find that they want to be very careful how they construct clouds that use AI. They want to make sure that they're inside the firewall. We're noticing that the domestic telecoms throughout the world are starting to take a more substantial role in the supply chain for these proprietary clouds, and I think you'll see in the future OpenText get more involved with those telecoms throughout the world as those channel opportunities present themselves.

Speaker #6: They want to make sure that they're inside the firewall . So we're noticing that the domestic telecoms throughout the world are starting to take a more substantial role in supply chain for these proprietary clouds .

Speaker #6: And I think you'll see in the future , OpenText get more involved with those telecoms throughout the world as those channel opportunities present themselves .

Speaker #6: It's interesting because we're finding that major corporations that went to the cloud actually don't have an IT capacity internal to their companies anymore .

Tom Jenkins: It's interesting because we're finding that major corporations that went to the cloud actually don't have an IT capacity internal to their companies anymore, and that's why they're seeking alternatives where they can maintain a proprietary AI, but do it on a managed service basis through ourselves, other vendors, and the telecoms, as I had mentioned. These trends, they're going to be a major topic of our upcoming user conference, James McGourlay has mentioned that we'll be having later this month in Nashville, as well as the Analyst Day. We're also going to have a new book called Enterprise Artificial Intelligence available that explains all these concepts in much more detail, both to yourselves as well as our users. In closing, what lies ahead for OpenText is perhaps the greatest opportunity in the history of the company.

Speaker #6: And that's why they're seeking alternatives where they can maintain a proprietary AI , but do it unimagined . Managed service basis through ourselves .

Speaker #6: Other vendors , and the telecoms . As I had mentioned . Now , these trends , they're going to be a major topic of our upcoming user conference .

Speaker #6: James has mentioned that we'll be having later this month in Nashville , as well as the Analyst Day . Now we're also going to have a new book called Enterprise Artificial Intelligence available that explains all these concepts in much more detail , both to yourselves as well as our users .

Speaker #6: So in closing , what lies ahead for OpenText is perhaps the greatest opportunity in the history of the company . We hope that you'll follow us on that journey as we take our core businesses and focus on them .

Tom Jenkins: We hope that you'll follow us on that journey as we take our core businesses and focus on them. We're gonna train Agentic AI with all that content. Our board committee continues to make the divestitures of the non-core business, and our board identifies and onboards our new CEO. With that, could the operator please open the line to have questions?

Speaker #6: We're going to train Agentic AI with all that content . Our board committee continues to make the divestitures of the non-core business , and our board identifies and onboards our new CEO .

Speaker #6: So with that , could the operator please open the line to have questions ?

Speaker #1: We will now begin . The analyst question and answer session . Analysts who wish to ask a question may press star , then one on the touch tone telephone .

Operator: The first question comes from Richard Tse with National Bank Financial. Please go ahead.

Speaker #1: To join the question queue , you will hear a tone acknowledging your request . If you are using a speakerphone , please ensure you lift the handset before pressing any key .

Speaker #1: If you wish to remove yourself from the question queue , you may press star , then two . The first question comes from Richard Si with National Bank financial .

Speaker #1: Please go ahead .

Speaker #7: Yes . Thank you . So , Tom , you're embarking on a pretty ambitious strategy here . Just kind of want to get your thoughts in terms of what you think .

Richard Tse: Yes, thank you. Tom, you're embarking on a pretty ambitious strategy here. Just kinda wanna get your thoughts in terms of what you think OpenText competitive edge is in content as you make this pivot to leveraging, you know, your data for AI, because there are a number of companies in the marketplace.

Speaker #7: OpenText Competitive Edge is in content as you make this pivot to leveraging , you know , your data for AI because there are a number of companies in the marketplace .

Speaker #6: Yeah , the competitive edge you don't create competitive edges overnight . As you know that competitive edge was built over 35 years . We're the only company that has the hundreds and hundreds of data connectors .

Tom Jenkins: Yeah, the competitive edge, you don't create competitive edges overnight, as you know. That competitive edge was built over 35 years. We're the only company that has the hundreds and hundreds of data connectors. You know, you had to be around back in 1995 to be able to have a connector into WordPerfect and into Lotus Notes and into Lotus 1-2-3, and all that stuff. The reality is that legacy data is critical to training Agentic AI. We have all of those connectors, whether it's in business networks, whether it's in IT operations management or in human content. That stuff gets built up over decades. You had to have been there at the time. All that source code, all of that plumbing is buried inside our products. Whether it's SAP archives that are written directly in ABAP.

Speaker #6: You know , you had to be around back in 1995 to be able to have a connector into WordPerfect and into Lotus Notes , and in a Lotus one , two , three and all that stuff .

Speaker #6: And the reality is that legacy data is critical to training a AI , and we have all of those connectors , whether it's in business networks , whether it's in IT , operations management or in human content .

Speaker #6: And that stuff gets built up over decades . You had to have been there at the time . And so all that source code , all of that plumbing is buried inside our products , whether it's SAP archives that are written directly in Abap , that kind of stuff .

Tom Jenkins: That kind of stuff you just can't make up later. You had to have been there at the time. That's the part that really gives us a huge competitive advantage. I think the other part that we're going to find play out in the market is that we offer a hybrid mix. We offer on-prem through license, as well as in the cloud and managed services. There's a mix that users can pick, because as you go to build these AI systems, you know, that information is located throughout corporations in many, many different attics, so to speak, throughout. We're equipped to be able to do that.

Speaker #6: You just can't make up later . You had to have been there at the time . So that's the part that really gives us a huge competitive advantage .

Speaker #6: I think the other part that we're going to find play out in the market is that we offer a hybrid mix . We offer on prem through license , as well as in the cloud , and managed services .

Speaker #6: So there's a mix that users can pick because as you go to build these AI systems , you know that information is located throughout corporations in many , many different attics , so to speak .

Speaker #6: Throughout and we're equipped to be able to do that .

Speaker #7: Okay , great . And my second question has to do with the content business . Thank you for that segmented disclosure . It obviously is growing at a pretty rapid rate , certainly on the cloud side .

Richard Tse: Great. Great. My second question has to do with the content business. Thank you for that segmented disclosure. It obviously is growing at a pretty rapid rate, certainly on the cloud side. Can you maybe give us a bit of color in terms of the mix of where that growth is coming from? Is it sort of AI readiness or is it something else? You know, for mature markets, you know, granted it's sort of off a small base on the cloud piece, but still, curious to see how that's playing out.

Speaker #7: Can you maybe give us a bit of color in terms of the mix of where that growth is coming from ? Is it sort of AI readiness , or is it something else because , you know , for mature markets , you know , granted , it's sort of off a small base on the cloud piece , but still , I'm curious to see how that's playing out .

Speaker #6: Yeah , I'll defer this to James , but I will say one thing . When a CIO approaches this problem , the first thing that they have to do is they have to curate their content in general .

Tom Jenkins: Yeah, I'll defer this to James, but I will say one thing. When a CIO approaches this problem, the first thing that they have to do is they have to curate their content in general. That's why I think you're seeing a lag in some of the adoption of AI, because even though we had COVID and even though we created a lot of digital pieces inside our organizations, the reality is we were doing that in a hurry during COVID. Getting this in an organized fashion, that takes a lot of content management. It takes a lot of archival, a lot of records management. A lot of organizations were simply getting digitally ready. They had never been asked to do this before. They were keeping all that data for regulatory reasons.

Speaker #6: That's why I think you're seeing a lag in some of the adoption of AI , because even though we had Covid and even though we created a lot of digital pieces inside our organizations , the reality is we were doing that in a hurry during Covid .

Speaker #6: Getting this in an organized fashion that takes a lot of content management . It takes a lot of archival , a lot of records management .

Speaker #6: So a lot of organizations were simply getting digitally ready . They had never been asked to do this before . They were keeping all that data for regulatory reasons .

Speaker #6: Now they're starting to present that data in real time , in ready , so that they can do training . So I'll leave it to James to talk about the the very specific parts .

Tom Jenkins: They're starting to present that data in real time and ready so that they can do training. I'll leave it to James to talk about the very specific parts.

Speaker #3: I think you covered it pretty well , Tom . You know , we're seeing our customers looking at moving into the cloud for , for a number of reasons , including the managed capability that we offer , curating their data for , for AI readiness .

James McGourlay: I think you covered it pretty well, Tom. You know, we're seeing our customers looking at and moving into the cloud for a number of reasons, including the managed capability that we offer, curating their data for AI readiness and just overall simplification of the management of the system for them. You know, customers are moving quickly. We're seeing new customers coming in, coming on board, jumping directly into our cloud offering, as you would expect in this day and age. It's across the board, we're seeing a shift to cloud in the customer base.

Speaker #3: And just overall simplification of of the of the the management of the system for them . So , you know , customers are moving quickly .

Speaker #3: We're seeing new customers coming in , coming on board , jumping directly into our cloud offering , as you would expect . And this day and age , but it's across the board .

Speaker #3: We're seeing a shift to cloud and the customer base .

Speaker #1: The next question comes from . Kevin Kershner with Scotiabank . Please go ahead .

Operator: The next question comes from Kevin Krishnaratne with Scotiabank. Please go ahead.

Speaker #8: Hey there . Good morning . Maybe Tom , just on that last point on the data readiness and can appreciate the sort of decades worth of of content that you're managing for your customers .

Kevin Krishnaratne: Hey there. Good morning. Maybe Tom, just on that last point on the data readiness, and can appreciate the sort of decades worth of content that you're managing for your customers. Can you just talk about maybe is there a sweet spot in terms of how far back customers need to go. You talked about, you know, all the data that you've got to train agentic, but I'm wondering, like, how relevant is data, you know, from 30 years ago versus, say, 5 years ago? Is there, again, just sort of a sweet spot that you're seeing in terms of, you know, how far back, you know, how much data, you know, customers are bringing in to think about their agentic AI training purposes? Thanks.

Speaker #8: Is that like , can you just talk about maybe is there a sweet spot in terms of how how far back customers need to go ?

Speaker #8: You talk about , you know , all the data that you've got , to train , but I'm wondering , like how relevant is data from 30 years ago versus , say , five years ago ?

Speaker #8: Is there again just sort of a sweet spot that you're seeing in terms of , you know , how far back , you know , how much how much data , you know , customers are bringing in to to think about their agentic AI training purposes .

Speaker #8: Thanks .

Speaker #6: Yeah , that's a great question . And , and even to go further , we could say that there were early attempts to create synthetic data where you would take five years of data and just simply replicate it to try and fake out some form of agentic AI training .

Tom Jenkins: Yeah, that's a great question. Even to go further, we could say that there were early attempts to create synthetic data, where you would take 5 years of data and just simply replicate it to try and fake out some form of Agentic AI training. The reality is, I think the person who did this analysis the best was Lawrence Summers, who's of course now on the board at OpenAI and former Harvard president, when he was doing the analysis of how the Fed had made such an error during COVID. When he went to look at the Fed models, he discovered that they had gone back 20 years. You can go on YouTube and watch this. It's a fascinating presentation and analysis by Lawrence Summers.

Speaker #6: The reality is , I think the person who did this analysis the best was Larry Summers , who's of course now on the board at OpenAI and former Harvard president .

Speaker #6: When he was doing the analysis of how the fed had made such an error during Covid , and when he went to look at the fed models , he discovered that they had gone back 20 years .

Speaker #6: And you can go on YouTube and watch this . It's a fascinating presentation and analysis by Larry Summers . And basically he looked at them and he said , you didn't go far enough back .

Tom Jenkins: Basically, he looked at them and he said, You didn't go far enough back. You had to go to where the Black Swan was, which was in the 1970s, and that's why you missed it. It's an interesting point, because what you're doing when you're training GenAI, you're going back looking for patterns. If you have the data, you go back as far as you can, because you're looking to get the pattern of the Black Swan. That's what a corporation wants to be able to see. Where are those anomalies? Quite frankly, you can't go far enough back. If you've got the ability to go back 35, 40 years, you're absolutely gonna do that because your AI will be more accurate and, quite frankly, wise. That's the race.

Speaker #6: You had to go to where The Black Swan was , which was in the 70s . And that's why you missed it . And it's an interesting point , because what you're doing when you're training Gen AI , you're going back looking for patterns .

Speaker #6: And so if you have the data , back as far as you can because you go you're looking to get the pattern of the black swan .

Tom Jenkins: There is no such thing as data that is not useful. The more you have, the better off you are.

Kevin Krishnaratne: That's super fascinating. Thanks for that. Maybe switching over to Steve, you know, welcome to the team. Think about the Q2 guide on revenue. It's a range. It does imply a scenario that could see quarter-over-quarter decline. I'm just wondering if you could maybe talk about the drivers that would get you know, on the one hand down to the bottom of the range and on the other hand, the top end of the range. Can you just talk about, you know, expectations for the coming quarter?

Steve Rai: Well, I think it's The most critical item for the quarter and the rest of the year and beyond is this theme that we've, you know, that Tom's been talking about and James commented on. That, I mean, focus I mean, I'm new on the scene, right? What's so compelling to me, as from what I look at, is you look at content and those and the core pieces that kind of feed into that and that Then take a look at the CRPO, right? That current remaining performance obligation, that is just really kind of gonna That's what's carrying everything here. That is the biggest component of the business.

Steve Rai: From a, you know, where Q2 is versus the H2, look, we haven't changed our annual outlook. You know, there is gonna be some degree of shift from the other elements of the business. You know, that trajectory is the key trend to watch.

Tom Jenkins: Yeah. Don't forget that the thing that we don't know is what's the mix of revenue caused by how fast people are going to the cloud. As you know, the revenue reporting for cloud gets distributed when we make a contract three, four, even five years, as opposed to license, which gets recognized right away in that quarter. That's part of the issue that we don't know what the mix of that revenue will be. We sure do have the customers, though. It's just that what buckets of revenue will that go into quarter by quarter? That's the thing that we think we're seeing an even faster move to the cloud.

Operator: The next question comes from Stephanie Price with CIBC. Please go ahead.

Stephanie Price: Hi. Good morning. Thank you. Maybe just to follow up on Kevin's question around the Q2 guide, appreciate the color on the go-forward strategy. In terms of EBITDA growth in H2, the reiterated guide implies a pretty significant step up in H2. Just curious about what's driving that growth. Is it primarily transformation initiatives? Any color on that, Steve, and welcome, would be great.

Steve Rai: I'll let the others jump in, but certainly, you know, there's a lot of the portfolio reshaping, the very significant business optimization initiatives that have been underway for some time, and continue to be, you know I mean, that's a half a billion dollar run rate improvement since the program was announced that we're working on. A significant portion of that, call it a third, I understand was realized last fiscal year. There's another third approximately that's built into the plan for the current year, and then we continue to work beyond that. You know, all of those things really drive, you know, that improvement.

Stephanie Price: Great. Thank you. Tom, maybe just an update on the divestitures initiative. Congratulations on eDOCS. How should we kind of think about the cadence of divestitures over the next several quarters here as you look to divest 15% to 20% of the overall revenue?

Yeah, I'll let the others jump in but certainly, uh, you know, there's there's a lot of uh, the the portfolio reshaping, the very significant, uh, business optimization initiatives that have been underway for for some time, uh, and and continue to be, um, you know, I mean that's a, that's a half a billion dollar run rate Improvement, uh, since the program, um, was, uh, what was announced that that we're working on. So a significant portion of that, call it a third. Uh, I understand was realized last fiscal year, there's another third approximately, uh, that's built into the plan for for the current year and then we continue to work uh, beyond that. So you know, all of those things really Drive. Um, you know that uh, that that Improvement.

Tom Jenkins: Yeah, it's a great question. We've been grappling with that and talking to Steve about the right way to do it. Clearly there are multiple business units here that are non-core. I think what you'll see is we'll establish a pace of doing 1 per quarter because it does take a lot of effort. If you think about what Steve just said, as we divest a unit, there's parts that do not go with the unit sale that we then have to restructure. It's a non-trivial exercise. We're gonna do it methodically. I think you'll see us generally be done within the next year. That's sort of what our overall goal is. Yeah, you'll see a drumbeat of this. It will not be all at once. That would be irresponsible.

Great, thank you. And then Tom, maybe just an update on the device toes initiative. Congratulations on eocs. Um, how should we kind of think about the Cadence of deves, over the next several Quarters here? As you look to, to the best 15 to 20% of the the overall Revenue.

Tom Jenkins: We wanna stay very disciplined on our EBITDA as you know, the company's very disciplined when it comes to EBITDA. We'll make sure that we do this in a methodical fashion so that we don't get big changes in EBITDA. That will guide us. You know, we'll have to ask everyone's patience while we do it, but we don't want drama. We just wanna have it in a real constant drumbeat as we go through the year.

You'll see us generally be done within the next year. That's sort of what our overall goal is. Uh, but yeah, you'll, you'll see a drum beat of this. It will not be all at. Once, that would be irresponsible, we want to stay very disciplined on our IBA and keep, as you know, the, the company's very disciplined when it comes to you. But uh, we'll make sure that we do this in a methodical fashion so that we don't get big changes in IBA dust. So that will guide us, you know, we'll have to ask everyone's patience while we do it but we don't want drama. We just want to have it in in a in a real constant drum beat as we go through the year.

Operator: The next question comes from Steven Enders with Citigroup. Please go ahead.

George Webb: Hi, this is George Webb on for Steve. Thanks for taking the questions here. Maybe one follow-up on the divestiture point. Steve, I think one of the things that jumped out to us on your resume, your time at BlackBerry, was your involvement in divestitures with that organization. Maybe any thoughts on your approach or playbook? What do you feel like is similar or different coming into this situation?

The next question comes from Steve Anders with City. Please go ahead.

Hi. This is George. Chris on for Speed. Thanks for taking the questions here.

Uh may maybe 1 follow up on the devest your point. Um, Steve I think 1 of the things that jumped out to us on on your resume at your time at Blackberry was your involvement investors with that organization and the maybe any thoughts on your approach, or Playbook? What do you feel like is similar or different coming into this situation?

Steve Rai: Well, the primary difference that we've got here is the core, you know, represents the largest and fastest growing piece of the business. That is, you know, a great position to be in. Beyond that, just, you know, given the kind of the landscape that Tom Jenkins painted, everybody realizes we're on the cusp of a major step change in terms of, you know, AI, and Agentic AI in particular, developing. You know, this company's got AI of its own.

Well, the the primary difference that we've got here is the, is the core, uh, you know, represents the, the largest and, and fastest growing, uh, piece of the business. So that that, that is, uh, you know, a great position to be in. Um, and then beyond that,

Steve Rai: In addition to that access to all the information to training it, I mean, that training ground and providing that access to it is I mean, what a phenomenal time to, you know. You know, again, this is 35 years in the making. A great position to be in to kind of capitalize on that market picture.

Just, you know, given the, the kind of the landscape that that Tom painted the every everybody realizes we're on the cusp of a major step change in terms of, uh, you know, AI, uh, and a gentic AI in particular developing. And, and, you know, we've got this company's got, uh, AI of its own. But in addition to that, that access to all the information to training it, I mean that that training ground and providing that access to it is is I mean, what a phenomenal time to you know to kind of you know again this is this is 35 years in the making um uh great position to be in to kind of capitalize on that that market.

George Webb: Got it. Okay, great. Appreciate that color. Also appreciate the additional disclosure on the business unit side. I think the Content Cloud side really jumps off the page as, you know, it's been well discussed. I think the other thing that caught our attention maybe on the, on the flip side was the cybersecurity enterprise piece, you know, particularly that cloud component declining. I know it's small, but, you know, I think we were kind of interested in the cross-sell opportunity there, so surprised to see that, you know, moving the wrong direction. Just any color or commentary on what's happening in that business and your outlook there going forward.

U picture got it. Okay great I appreciate that that color. Um and then also appreciate the additional disclosure on the business unit side. I think the content Cloud side really jumps off the page. As you know, it's been. Well discussed I I think the other thing that caught our attention, maybe on the on the flip side was the cyber security Enterprise piece, you know, particularly that cloud component declining. I know it's small but

James McGourlay: Yeah. Look, it's James speaking. I think it's fair to say that we're working extensively on that business. You know, we've made several investments in the product development since we acquired the product lines. We are seeing great success as we're moving forward, you know, we will start to see those cloud numbers coming up with investments in specific regions. You know, I can look at various deals that we've done with large strategic banks where we've sold content and cloud and security together. We are seeing success in our cross-selling efforts. We're expanding those efforts, you'll see us continue to expand those efforts as we go through this year and beyond.

But you know, I think we were kind of interested in the the crosselle opportunity there. So surprised to see that, you know, moving the wrong direction, just any color commentary on on, what's happening in that business and your your outlook there going forward.

Look, I I I think it's it's very sort of James speaking. I think it's fair to say that we're we're working extensively on that business. Um, and you know, we've made several investments in the product development since since since we acquired the product lines, um, we are seeing great success as we're moving forward, uh, you know, and we, we will start to see those those Cloud numbers coming up with investments in specific regions. But, you know, I can look at at various deals that we've done with the, with large strategic Banks, where, where we've sold content and cloud and security together. Uh, so we are seeing success in our cross-selling, experts, we're we're expanding those efforts and you'll see us continue to expand those efforts as we go through this year and Beyond,

Operator: The next question comes from Samad Samana with Jefferies. Please go ahead.

Billy Fitzsimmons: Hey, guys. This is actually Billy Fitzsimmons on for Samad. I wanna double-click on Content Cloud because it's important. When we think about the 21% Content Cloud growth in the quarter, how would we break down that growth between, call it net new customer wins, seat expansions, ARPU expansion from selling additional modules in the base, and then cloud conversions in your existing base? What I'm kind of getting at here is when we think about cloud versus non-cloud, OpenText has always made it a point to support customers where they are. Just so we're all clear, were there any, call it, shorter-term tailwinds to the Content Cloud growth rate from you guys using either carrot sticks to incentivize your existing on-prem customers to move to the cloud?

the next question comes from zamad Semana with Jeffy. Please go ahead.

Hey guys, this is actually Billy at Simmons on for sad. I want to double click on on contact Cloud because it's important. And and when we think about the the 21% content Cloud growth in the quarter, how would we break down that growth between call it net? New customer wins seed expansions Arco expansion from selling additional modules in the base.

Billy Fitzsimmons: Would you more categorize this as customer driven and that they're choosing to transition because of their AI readiness?

James McGourlay: First of all, I would characterize this as a joint effort between OpenText and customers. As you said, we're selling to our customers where they want to be. We allow our customers to make that choice, and that's where we go. We don't have a program in place that incentivizes customers to move into the cloud. We're not pushing people to the cloud. You know, this is really a joint effort and a joint decision as we go forward. There's nothing exceptional that comes to mind in the quarter that would drive that growth other than the concerted effort of our sales team selling.

And then and then Cloud conversions in your existing base. And what I'm kind of getting at here is is when we think about Cloud versus non-cloud open, text has always made it a point to support customers where they are, uh, and so Jus just so we're all clear, were there any call it shorter term, Tailwind to the content, Cloud growth rate from from you guys using either character sticks to incentivize your existing on-prem customers to move to the cloud or would you more categorize? This is is customer driven and that they're choosing to transition because of their AI running this

To move into the cloud. We're not pushing people to the cloud. You know, this is this is really a joint effort and a joint decision as we go forward. Um, there's

Tom Jenkins: I think there's also a really big point buried inside that question. We as a company are focused on shareholder value. How do we make the most profit?

Nothing exceptional that. I that I can that comes to mind in the quarter that would would drive that that that growth other than the the concerted effort of our our sales teams selling

Tom Jenkins: The install base has a tremendous amount of ARR, what we would classically call maintenance. It's very lucrative for the company. We're not in a hurry to see that leave. Quite frankly, neither are our customers. Our customers are very You know, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. We're not in a hurry. I know other vendors, because they wanna categorize everything into the cloud are converting. We don't see the wisdom of that, not for our customers and not for ourselves. They're happy to actually pay us more under the old way, and we're happy to take it. I think you'll see that this, as James McGourlay says, is a partnership ongoing, between our users and ourselves. We're not dogmatic on this.

Tom Jenkins: We're just driven by how do we make the most amount of money, and the most amount of money is by doing what customers want.

I think there's also a really big Point buried inside that question. I we as a company are focused on shareholder value. How do we make the most profit? And the install base has a tremendous amount of ARR, uh, what we would classically call maintenance is very lucrative for the company, we're not in a hurry to see that leave and quite frankly. Now, there are customers, our customers are very, you know, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. And so, we're not in a hurry. I, I know other vendors, uh, because they want to categorize everything into the cloud or converting. Uh, we don't see the wisdom of that, not for our customers, and not for ourselves. They're happy to actually pay us more under the old way, and we're happy to take it. So I think you'll see that this as James says, is a partnership ongoing, uh, between our users and ourselves. But we're not dogmatic on this. We're just driven by

How do we make the most amount of money and the most amount of money is by doing what customers want?

Billy Fitzsimmons: Makes perfect sense and crystal clear on that. Maybe if I can ask one to you, Steve. I'll leave this pretty open-ended, but it's only been a month or so since you've joined, and this is your first earnings call. Can you just talk through kind of what are your initial priorities as CFO?

Makes perfect sense and crystal clear on that. And maybe if I could ask 1 to to you, Steve, um, and I'll leave this pretty open-ended but it's only been a month or so since you joined and this is your first earnings call. Can you can you just talk through kind of what are your initial priorities as CFO?

Steve Rai: Well, obviously, you know, understanding the priorities on the part of our customers, understanding the products. Obviously, there's been, you know, some very significant strategic initiatives recently announced, and the board obviously has been very involved in that. You know, the big things are, you know, the primary trend that we've been talking about with content leading the growth and, wrapped, you know, with all the business optimization initiatives. That's really the, you know, top line, bottom line. I mean, those are the most significant and most impactful items. That's where I'm focusing, you know, and just obviously getting to know the team and how we do things.

well, uh, obviously you know, understanding, um,

Understanding the, the priorities on the part of our customers, understanding the products obviously. There's been, uh, you know, some very, uh, significant, uh, strategic initiatives, uh, recently announced and, and the board obviously has been very involved in that, um, you know, but but the big things are, you know, the, the primary Trend that we've been talking about with content leading, uh, uh, you know, leading the growth and, uh,

Tom Jenkins: Steve is certainly not bored. There's a lot of balls in the air, and he's just in a perfect position. We had a meeting early in and I said, Steve, what do you think? He said, Go faster. I think that characterizes Steve for us. He's a veteran, been around. He sees what we're doing. Just go faster.

Wrapped, you know, with all the, the business optimization initiatives. And and that's really the, you know, Top Line. But bottom line, I mean, those are the most uh significant uh and and most impactful items. So. So that that's where I'm focusing, you know? And just obviously getting to know the the the team and uh and how we do things.

Steve is certainly not bored.

There's a lot, there's a lot of balls in the air, and he's just in a perfect position. We had a meeting early in, and I said, "Steve, what do you think?" He said, "Go faster."

And I think that characterizes Steve for us, he's a veteran been around. He sees what we're doing. Just go faster.

Operator: The next question comes from Thanos Moschopoulos with BMO Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Thanos Moschopoulos: Good morning. With respect to the ITOM business, you clearly had some strong cloud growth, albeit off of a small base. What would your expectations be for stabilizing total ITOM revenue? Like, is this something you hope to accomplish as you exit this year, or is it still TBD?

The next question comes from Stephen mckel with BMO Capital markets. Please go ahead, good morning. Um, so with respect to the itom business, uh, you clearly had some strong Cloud growth. So I'll be it off of a small base, uh, what would your expectations be for stabilizing total? Itm revenue, like, is this something you hope to accomplish as you exit this year or is it still uh, pbd?

James McGourlay: I think I will say at this point it's still TBD. I mean, we are working on stabilizing as we go along, and obviously you can see the growth coming in on the cloud. There's some great product features, benefits that are coming out in our upcoming releases. We're seeing stronger demand from our customers. Yeah, we're working towards stabilizing. I'm not willing to put a date on it at this point in time, but, you know, we are progressing well towards that end and winning some great deals against some strong competition. We've got really positive plans for ITOM and a key part of the portfolio.

I think we're, I think it will say, at this point, it's still TBD. I mean, we are we are working on stabilizing as as we go along, and obviously, you can see the growth coming in on the cloud. Um, there's there's some great product, uh, features benefits that that are coming out in our, in our upcoming releases. Uh, we're we're seeing stronger demand from our customers, so yeah. We're we're working towards stabilizing them. Not willing to put a, put a date on it, uh, at at this point in time. But, you know, we are progressing well towards towards that end, uh, and and winning some, we're winning some great, uh, some great deals against some strong competitions. So, uh, we we've got really

Positive. Uh,

Tom Jenkins: I think what you'll see at Analyst Day and also at the user conference, although we break out these units as ITOM and enterprise security and content, you're quickly seeing us evolve into a go-to-market strategy where we're training all content for agentic AI. You'll see us go to market where the ITOM, which is really machine-generated content for agentic AI, you'll see business networks, which is really transactional content for agentic AI, and then the original Content Server business, which is human-generated content. All of those components are gonna come together in an offering from us because our users, when they go to train agentic AI, they don't think of it as ITOM or the way we as vendors would break it up in the historical way of creating content. They just think of it as content, a big data pool.

positive plans for for I Tom and a key part of the portfolio, I think what you'll see at analyst State and also at the user conference although we break out these units as I Tom and Enterprise security and content you're you're quickly seeing us evolve into a go to market strategy where we're training all content

Tom Jenkins: You'll see us go to market where we would in the past call that cross-selling. We're coming to the market now to give our users what they need, which is really all of the data, not select data that previous vendors had, but rather all of the data. I think this is a very important thing you'll see us go to market with, starting with next week with Analyst Day.

Thanos Moschopoulos: All right. We'll look forward to it. My second question is, the Q2 revenue guide seems to imply a double-digit decline in license revenue. Can you provide some color on that dynamic? Is it reflective of clients transitioning from license to cloud, or is there some other dynamic or factor to point to?

Which is human generated content. All of those components are going to come together in an offering from us because our users when they go to train a Gentech AI, they don't think of it as I Tom, or the way we as vendors would break it up in the historical way of creating content. They just think of it as content, a big data pool. And so you'll see us go to market, where we would in the past. Call that cross-selling, we're coming to the market. Now, to give our users what they need, which is really all of the data. Not not select data that previous vendors had. But rather all of the data I think this is a very important thing. You'll see us go to market with starting with next week with analyst day.

Day. All right, we'll look forward to it. Um, my second question is, the Q2 revenue guide seems to imply a double-digit decline in license revenue.

Tom Jenkins: This is what I was referencing before. We're really driven by the selection that our customers are making. As James has said, we don't have a definitive target. We simply show up and say, here's the menu. Would you like this on-prem? Would you like this as a managed service? In many ways, that mix is really a reflection of how quickly customers are going to the cloud. Quite frankly, last quarter, they chose cloud more than they did license. That could change next quarter because there is that other dynamic going on.

Um, can you provide some color on that Dynamic? Is it, uh, reflective of compliance transitioning from licensed to cloud? Or is there some other, uh, dynamic or factored to point to?

So this is what I was referencing before. We're really driven by the selection that our customers are making it. As James has said, we don't have a definitive Target uh we simply show up and say Here's the menu. Uh would you like this on Prem? Would you like this as a managed service? So in many ways,

Tom Jenkins: Where the need for a proprietary cloud or a sovereign cloud, that will have an element of on-prem, and it will have an element of wanting license revenue. It's not something that we can predict with absolute precision. We think overall, though, that the trend line will continue just like what you saw this quarter into the following quarters. That variability quarter to quarter is really hard to really nail down. James, what's your-

James McGourlay: I think you covered it great, Tom.

Tom Jenkins: That's what we're seeing.

James McGourlay: That's what we're seeing. We're seeing our customers move to cloud. There's some large deals out there. There's some variability in when those deals will happen on the license side, you know. The main driver is that customers are moving to the cloud. Those are bigger deals but they're spread over time, and that's the impact on the quarter.

Way that mix is really a reflection of how quickly customers are going to the cloud and quite frankly. The last quarter, they chose Cloud more than they did license it. That could change next quarter because there is that other Dynamic going on where the need for a proprietary cloud or a sovereign Cloud that will have an element of on-prem and it will have an element of wanting license Revenue. So it's not something that we can predict with absolute Precision. Uh, we think overall though, that the trend line will continue just like what you saw this quarter into the following quarters. But but that variability quarter quarter is really hard to to Really nail down. James, what's your, I think you covered a great Tom? That's what we're seeing. That's what we're seeing. We're seeing our customers move to Cloud. There's some large deals out there. There's some variability in when those deals will happen on the license side. You know? But the the main

Driver, is that customers are moving to the cloud. Those are bigger deals that but they're spread over time and that's that's the impact on the court.

Operator: The next question comes from Karl Keirstead with UBS. Please go ahead.

The next question comes from, Seth Gilbert with UDF. Please. Go ahead.

Karl Keirstead: Hey, thanks for taking the questions. Maybe another one on the two-tier revenue guidance, if you don't mind. The two-tier usually seems way stronger than one-tier with the December year-end, calendar year-end. Maybe to help us out a little bit, you know, is cloud services, is that line going to be less than the 6%? There's a, you know, there's a fine mix if you kind of play with license as in the previous question and if you play with cloud. Maybe, you know, trying to help us understand for modeling purposes, you know, where those two will kind of be in two-tier, I think could help squash a lot of investor fears. Thank you.

Hey, thanks for taking the questions. Um, maybe another 1 on the, on the 2q revenue guidance. If you don't mind the 2q usually seems like stronger than 1 Q with the December year, end calendar year end. Maybe to help us out a little bit. Um, you know, is cloud services, um, is that line going to be uh, less than than the 6% because there's a, you know, there's a fine mix, it'd be kind of play with, with licenses in the previous question. And if you play with cloud and uh, maybe you know, trying to help us understand for modeling purposes. Um you know where those 2 will kind of be um in in 2 Q. I think could help um squash a lot of investor fears. Thank you.

Steve Rai: I would kind of start with, you know, we haven't revised the outlook for the full year. There is some element of larger deal timing, particularly on, you know, on the license front because the rev rec is more upfront on that. This is why at the outset, and I think we've covered in some of our IR presentation as well, that if that's a trade-off and the customer chooses to go to the cloud, rather than signing up for a license deal with more upfront rev rec, keep an eye on the RPO because that's where that trade-off and that customer choice ends up. Particularly the current RPO, which is the next 12 months.

I would kind of start with, you know, we, we haven't,

we, we haven't revised the outlook for the full year so there is some element of of

Larger deal timing, particularly on on, uh, you know, on the license front because the Rev wreck is, is more upfront on that. But this is why at the outset and I think we, we've covered in some of our, our, uh, our IR presentation, as well that, if, if that's a trade-off and a customer chooses to go to the cloud, uh, rather than a, a signing up for a, for a, for a licensed deal, with more upfront, rev wreck, keep an eye on the on the RPO because that's that's where that, that trade-off, and that customer Choice ends up and and particularly

Steve Rai: It, you know, it's that, you know it's a positive shift for the long term to see it, but obviously there's that, there's that near-term accounting rev rec impact. That's how I'd guide you to kind of view that.

The current RPO which is the next 12 months. So it you know it's that you know it's it's it is a positive shift for the long term to to see it but obviously there's that there's that near-term. Um accounting rev wreck uh impact. So that that's that's how I I guide you to kind of view that

Karl Keirstead: Got it. Thank you. Maybe, as a follow-up, recognizing you have not changed your full year guidance, which was good to see. Maybe this is a question about a little bit further out. Can you talk about how you're thinking about the changing revenue mix to impact margins, maybe at a high level?

Tom Jenkins: Yeah. No matter what the revenue mix, we are committed to the margin. We've always been a very disciplined operator, so there will be no change to the margin regardless of the revenue mix. We will adjust as we go along. It's like Steve Rai said, some of this from a rev rec point of view, you know, all the so-called dump truck still has the same amount. It's just that we're letting some of it out slower in one of the scenarios with cloud. The dump truck still has the same amount of dirt in it. It's just, as we meter it out, we will make sure we maintain our margins. We've got a long history of being a very disciplined operator.

Level.

Yeah, no matter what the revenue mix we are committed to the margin. We've always been a very disciplined operator, so there will be no change to the margin, regardless of the revenue mix. We will adjust as we go along and it's like Steve said, some of this, from a revre point of view, you know, all all the, uh, the so-called dump truck still has the same amount. It's just that we're letting some of it out slower in 1 of the scenarios with uh, with Cloud. Uh, but the dump truck still has the same amount of uh uh dirt in it. So, it's just a, as we meter it out, we will make sure we maintain our margins. We've got a long history of being very disciplined operator.

Operator: I will now hand the call back over to management for closing remarks. Please go ahead.
