Rob Painter: When performing earthmoving, our laser scanners are deployed for capturing the job site in high-fidelity 3D to create a digital twin of the physical earth, while our tools back in the office power the design of the terrain model into a constructible model. Enabled by the Trimble ecosystem, this model is seamlessly deployed to our Trimble survey and machine control systems in the field to execute the work in the physical world, while our project management and scheduling capabilities are managing the work. Physical to digital to physical. When performing complex steel and bridge work, they take the structural and design model that is managed within the Trimble ecosystem and then use our robotic total stations to precisely orient the digital model on the physical job site.

Rob Painter: Trimble is the data platform through which our customer's data flows and remains in sync as the work moves from the physical to digital to physical to digital, and so on. Through the power of the Trimble ecosystem, George Leslie is realizing significant productivity, quality, and efficiency in ways that Trimble uniquely delivers. Only Trimble can connect and optimize work like this. That's our connect and scale strategy in action, connecting work in the office and the field, connecting our hardware and software, connecting the physical and digital worlds. We see tremendous opportunity as we bring AI to industry workflows and further establish Trimble as the intelligence and execution layer that reconciles our customers' digital and physical realities.

Rob Painter: Slide five shows four examples of Trimble AI delivering actionable outcomes and breakthrough levels of productivity across projects in airports, rail, tunnels, and roads for some of the largest and most influential companies and organizations in the industry. Only Trimble. Speaking of AI, we believe customers will adopt AI from trusted platforms like ours, where we deliver the support, cybersecurity, governance, and sustaining engineering that our customers expect and require. Integrated workflows with deep domain knowledge at scale is a differentiator and a moat. Our ecosystem of third-party connectivity and platform extensibility compounds value delivery and drives network effects, where every connection point and transaction improves the next autonomous decision, making the data not peripheral to the product, but the product itself.

Rob Painter: In short, we see a world where AI increases the size of the addressable market, and we believe we have a compelling right to win, thus capturing additional avenues of growth. While we monetize our software and AI today primarily through named user licenses, we are architecting ourselves to scale hybrid value delivery at the intersection of licenses and consumption. This isn't just a hypothetical thought experiment. We already deliver consumption models today. For example, Trimble Transportation and Transact well over $100 million of revenue through tens of millions of annual transactions on our platform, and our recent native AI products deliver autonomous procurement and autonomous quotation on a consumption basis. In Q4 2025, Trimble SketchUp released SketchUp AI as an add-on that is available to our subscriber base.

Speaker #3: In the fourth quarter of 2025, Trimble SketchUp released SketchUp AI as an add-on that is available to our subscriber base. The hybrid add-on is an additional subscription that makes a fixed number of AI credits available to each user each month.

Rob Painter: The hybrid add-on is an additional subscription that makes a fixed number of AI credits available to each user each month. We will continue to track market adoption of our AI capabilities along with market readiness for emerging consumption and outcome-based models as our monetization strategy evolves. Let's now turn to some segment-level highlights, starting with AECO. The team delivered another outstanding quarter. Both ARR and revenue were up 14%. Cross-sell and upsell performed well, and we extended the reach of Trimble Construction One into the Asia Pacific region. While North America remains our largest market, we are pleased with our performance in Europe as well as the APAC region. Last week, we launched an integration with SketchUp and Anthropic's Claude.

Speaker #3: While North America remains our largest market, we are pleased with our performance in Europe as well as the APAC region. Last week, we launched an integration with SketchUp and Anthropic's Claude.

Rob Painter: This makes it easy for Claude users to create Trimble SketchUp 3D models directly from conversational text, image, or speech prompts enabled by a SketchUp in MCP service that allows Claude to create and modify SketchUp files. The immediate monetization is downstream in our SketchUp subscriptions. After starting in Claude, users will then bring their files into SketchUp to further iterate on the design, leverage SketchUp's real-time collaboration features to engage project stakeholders, create visualizations, perform data light analysis, and more. The midterm revenue opportunity is expanding the addressable market by converting Claude users into Trimble customers. This is just one of the many examples you are going to see from us throughout 2026. Turning to slide 6, on 2 April, we announced the acquisition of Document Crunch. For context, construction is a relatively low-margin industry, yet remains one of the most risk-exposed industries in the world.

Speaker #3: Turning to slide six, on April 2nd, we announced the acquisition of Document Crunch. For context, construction is a relatively low-margin industry, yet remains one of the most risk-exposed industries in the world.

Rob Painter: More than 80% of projects exceed budget. When disputes arise, the average claim in North America tops $60 million. The root cause is consistent. Errors in project documents and stakeholders failing to understand their obligations. With Document Crunch, we're addressing this directly. We're establishing a new AI-powered risk management category within Trimble, bringing contract intelligence and compliance automation into the project management, estimating, and ERP workflows our customers already rely on. That's just the beginning. Think about what that means at scale. Layering these intelligence tools across tens of millions of projects in Trimble Connect, billions in construction managed through our ERPs, and field workflows that have never before been connected to the contract. We're connecting the field to the office, to the risk, to the execution, and embedding it all into Trimble Construction One. This isn't just simply AI document review.

Rob Painter: We are linking the contract and risk elements to the execution in the field and to multiple stakeholders throughout the ecosystem, thereby addressing the core reason for disputes. Early customer feedback has been exceptional, and we're moving quickly to expand, reach, and to leverage this AI-first development team to organically address new categories. Moving next to field systems, the physical side of Trimble outperformed in the quarter, with particular strength once again in civil construction. Both ARR and revenue were up 12%. We continue to innovate and execute with end market strength and infrastructure and data centers supporting our growth.

Rob Painter: The strategic highlight of the quarter was seeing our team in action at the CONEXPO-CON/AGG in Las Vegas in February, where the 140,000 plus construction professional attendees were able to see Trimble showcased in the booths of 24 leading construction OEMs from North America, Europe, and Asia, thus demonstrating the site technology leadership position we hold in the market. Extensibility is core to our connect and scale strategy and crucial to extending our leadership position. At our booth, we were able to showcase support for more machine categories, such as compact machines, along with new functionality for excavators equipped with dynamic swing booms. We also introduced an integration with ground-penetrating radar for real-time asphalt compaction quality control.

Combined with our expansion of points of distribution in the market and the linkage with workflow as described in the customer example in my opening remarks, we are as confident as ever that we have the right strategy at the right time executed by the right team.

Rob Painter: Combined with our expansion of points of distribution in the market and the linkage with workflow as described in the customer example in my opening remarks, we are as confident as ever that we have the right strategy at the right time executed by the right team. Moving now to transportation, ARR was up 9% and revenue was up 7%. Our booking strength in the quarter gives us confidence in our growth plans for the year. The AI ambitions of this team are inspiring and cutting edge. To unlock the potential of AI for product development requires a systemic paradigm shift across the entire product development life cycle. Today, the vast majority of new code is generated with AI tools, and our product development organization is fundamentally rewiring how we work, which in turn is increasing our velocity.

Rob Painter: In addition, we are approaching our target to dedicate 10% of our development resources to an applied AI organization that is tasked with agentic development as well as safe AI deployment. With a couple of recent customer wins and selling autonomous procurement and autonomous quotation in North America, we are building momentum and demonstrating that we can bring Transporeon capabilities to North America and that we can cross-sell into our carrier base. While the macro environment remains challenged, the North American market is beginning to show some signs of market recovery. In Europe, we continue to hold our competitive win ratios and grow our network density. In Q1, our new logo growth increased by more than 50% year over year, demonstrating the quality of our solutions, the available market to penetrate, and the solid execution of the team.

Rob Painter: Phil, I'll turn it over to you now.

Speaker #3: Phil, I'll turn it over to you now.

Phil Sawarynski: Thanks, Rob. Let me start with capital allocation, which remains disciplined and consistent. During the first quarter, we repurchased approximately $317 million of common stock, a direct reflection of our balance sheet and cash flow strength, our confidence in the long-term value of our business, and our commitment to delivering shareholder returns. We retain a substantial $608 million under our current repurchase authorization, which continues to give us flexibility for opportunistic buybacks. Longer term, we continue to expect at least a third of our free cash flow to be used for repurchasing shares as we look to provide returns for our shareholders. Our M&A strategy remains focused on strengthening our core market positions and adding capabilities that allow us to run the cross-sell motions and provide high ROI for our customers, such as our recent acquisition of Document Crunch.

Phil Sawarynski: In Q1, we also divested a small business in Field Systems as we continue to sharpen our focus on core competencies and allocate capital and resources to the highest returns. Let's review Q1 starting on slide 7. We delivered organic revenue growth of 12%, which exceeded our outlook. This performance was driven by the strength of AECO and Field Systems, while Transportation and Logistics delivered positive growth despite a constrained freight market. ARR was in line with our outlook at 13% to a record $2.435 billion. The continued growth in our recurring revenue base provides a predictable and resilient foundation for our business. Gross margins expanded to 71%, and we achieved EBITDA margins of 27.4%, which is a 150 basis points expansion compared to the prior year.

Kristen Owen: Hi, good morning, and thank you for the question. Nice start to the year, guys. It sounds like things are kind of all rolling in the same direction. You lifted your guidance for AECO and field systems. You beat by $0.07, you lifted the guide by $0.04. I'm just kind of wondering what's, what are the back half scenarios? How should we think about the level of conservatism that you're baking into the guide, given the strong start to the year?

Speaker #4: Hi, good morning, and thank you for the question. Nice start to the year, guys. It sounds like things are kind of all rolling in the same direction.

Speaker #4: You lifted your guidance for ACO and field systems. You beat by 7 cents. You lifted the guide by 4. So I'm just kind of wondering what are the back half scenarios or how should we think about the level of conservativeism that you're baking into the guide given the strong start to the year?

Phil Sawarynski: Hey, Kristen, it's Phil, thanks for the question. Let me start with, we're in line with our previous guide from earlier this year. Actually, in fact, we raised the guide for the year, we're on track to be at or ahead of our 3/4/30 model that we put out in Investor Day. I'd say we have the most visibility we've ever had at the company level with the transformation in the ARR mix. We do have less visibility on the hardware business and the length of the conflict we see in the Middle East and uncertainty around tariff policies, along with upper comps in H2. We've incorporated those puts and takes into our guide, we'll update you in a few months as we get more visibility on the year.

Speaker #5: Hey, Kristen. It's Phil. And thanks for the question. So let me start with we're in line with our previous guide from earlier this year, actually.

Speaker #5: In fact, we raised the guide for the be at or ahead of our 3430 model that we put out in Investor Day. I'd say we have the most visibility we've ever had at the company level with the transformation and the ARR mix.

Speaker #5: But we do have less visibility on the hardware business. And in light of the conflict we see in the Middle East and uncertainty around tariff policies, along with upper comps in the back half, we've incorporated those puts and takes into our guide and we'll update you in a few months as we get more visibility on the air.

Kristen Owen: Great. That's very helpful. I wanted to dive into some of the consumption model changes that you talked about, Rob, in your prepared remarks. You know, I'm hoping to understand any early indications of how your customers are utilizing tokens for the AI tools that are currently embedded in your products. Just any sort of qualitative or quantitative data that you can provide on, like, utilization trends or where you're seeing tokens being purchased. You know, how are those early learnings informing your commercialization of AI across the platform? Thank you.

Speaker #4: Great. That's very helpful. And then I wanted to dive into some of the consumption model changes that you talked about, Rob, in your prepared remarks.

Speaker #4: I'm hoping to understand any early indications of how your customers are utilizing tokens for the AI tools that are currently embedded in your products.

Speaker #4: Just any sort of qualitative or quantitative data that you can provide on utilization trends or where you're seeing tokens being purchased, how are those early learnings informing your commercialization of AI across the platform.

Speaker #4: Thank you.

Rob Painter: Good morning, Kristen. Yeah, I'll start by directly answering the token question. Quantitatively, what we can see is that the usage is growing and that almost all of those credits that are associated with those named user licenses are being consumed. That's good because it tells us they're actually being used. Qualitatively, what I really like are the learnings we're getting from doing this, because the development, the deployment, and the monetization motions are all different. Now, if we up-level the conversation, I think the real conversation to have is around the commercialization of AI across the platform, because the tokens themselves are a tactic of commercialization. Of course, we're gonna expect to see more of them going forward, and we're building the capabilities in order to do that. At the same time, we'll deploy many additional commercial tactics.

Speaker #5: Good morning, Kristen. Hey, I'll start by discreetly answering the token question. Quantitatively, what we can see is that the usage is growing. And that almost all of those credits are associated with this named user licenses are being consumed.

Speaker #5: And that's good because it tells us they're actually being used. Qualitatively, what I really like are the learnings we're getting from doing this because the development, the deployment, and the monetization motions are all different.

Speaker #5: Now, if we uplevel the conversation, I think the real conversation to have is around the commercialization of AI across the platform. Because the tokens themselves are a tactic of commercialization.

Speaker #5: And of course, we're going to expect to see more of them going forward. And we're building the capabilities in order to do that. But at the same time, we'll deploy many additional commercial tactics.

Rob Painter: I'll give you 2 examples. First one was discrete consumption and transactions. If you take autonomous procurement and autonomous quotation within transportation, I think that's a great example of that, because what we're monetizing through those particular product motions is happening at a higher rate than the traditional non-AI capabilities that we have. We can charge more because we're demonstrating a higher ROI to our customers when we do that. A second example is we'll create monetization through the good, better, best product motions, where we put AI into those better and best upsell motions. I highlighted 4 examples, I think it was on slide 5, of the presentation that give examples of this.

Speaker #5: So I'll give you two examples. First one, with discrete consumption and transactions. So if you take autonomous procurement and autonomous quotation within transportation, I think that's a great example of that, because what we're monetizing through those particular product motions is happening at a higher rate than the traditional non-AI capabilities that we have.

Speaker #5: And we can charge more because we're demonstrating a higher ROI to our customers when we do that. A second example is, we'll create monetization through the good, better, best product motions, where we put AI into those better and best upsell motions.

Speaker #5: And I highlighted four examples. I think it was on slide five of the presentation. They give examples of this. And one of those examples would be automated feature extraction out of the large point clouds.

Rob Painter: One of those examples would be automated feature extraction out of the large point clouds that we deliver to our customers. In that example, that automation of the feature extraction, which turns hours and days of work into minutes of work, we're monetizing that through that better and the best product sets that we deliver to our customers. In fact, in that example, when we're actually also enabling our customers to create their own proprietary datasets for their own unique work on feature extraction. Many different motions and tactics that we'll apply to achieve and reach that vision of commercializing the value that we're delivering to our customers through AI.

Speaker #5: That we deliver to our customers. So in that example, that automation of the feature extraction, which turns hours and days of work into minutes of work, we're monetizing that through better and the best product sets that we deliver to our customers.

Speaker #5: And in fact, in that example, when we're actually also enabling our customers to create their own proprietary data sets, for their own unique work on feature extraction.

Speaker #5: So many different motions and tactics that we'll apply to achieve and reach that vision of commercializing the value that we're delivering to our customers through AI.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Rob Wertheimer with Melius Research. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Rob Wertheimer: Thank you. I had two questions on trend at AECO and then on monetization along the lines of what you were just talking about. On trend line, obviously, ARR growth was strong. The comp on core is a little bit, you know, just abnormal, I wonder if you could just talk about revenue trends for the quarter, just any sense of that. As we go through the year, there were questions on the competitor call yesterday about whether construction is improving or not. There's lots of mixed indicators. I wonder if you might weigh in there.

Speaker #6: Thank you. I had two questions on trend at ACO and then on monetization along the lines of what you were just talking about. On trend line, obviously, ARR growth was strong.

Speaker #6: The comp on core is a little bit just abnormal. And so I wonder if you could just talk about revenue trends for the quarter, just any sense of that, and then as we go through the year, there are questions on a competitor call yesterday.

Speaker #6: About whether construction is improving or not. And there are lots of mixed indicators. I wonder if you might weigh in there.

Rob Painter: Hey, Rob, it's Phil. Let me start, as we think about the year and the guide for AECO. Let me start with connecting this to some numbers. As I look at the net new ARR, that is growing and has grown in Q1, and we expect that to continue to grow throughout the year. Historically, we also benefited a little bit from a tailwind due to conversion uplifts. We moved from maintenance and support into subscriptions, there was a bit of an uplift. If I look over history, again, that was a bit of a tailwind.

Phil Sawarynski: Hey, Rob, it's Phil. Let me start, as we think about the year and the guide for AECO. Let me start with connecting this to some numbers. As I look at the net new ARR, that is growing and has grown in Q1, and we expect that to continue to grow throughout the year. Historically, we also benefited a little bit from a tailwind due to conversion uplifts. We moved from maintenance and support into subscriptions, there was a bit of an uplift. If I look over history, again, that was a bit of a tailwind.

Speaker #5: Hey, Rob. It's Phil. Let me start. As we think about the year and the guide for ACO, so let me start with connecting this to some numbers.

Speaker #5: As I look at the net new ARR, that is growing and has grown in Q1. And we expect that to continue to grow throughout the year.

Speaker #5: Historically, we also benefited a little bit from a tailwind due to the conversion uplifts. So when we moved from maintenance and support into subscriptions, there was a bit of an uplift.

Speaker #5: So if I look over history, again, that was a bit of a tailwind. Still a small amount of that left, but the impact is a bit less.

Phil Sawarynski: Still a small amount of that left, but the impact is a bit less. The Q1 results and the full year guide are fully in line with our expectations and the model we put out in Investor Day with that mid-teens ARR growth and mid-teens revenue growth. Again, I think we're in line with the prior guide and in line with our multi-year model that we put out there.

Speaker #5: But the Q1 results and the full-year guide are fully in line with our expectations. And the model we put out in Investor Day with that mid-teens ARR growth and low to mid-teens revenue growth.

Speaker #5: So again, I think we're in line with the prior guide and in line with our multi-year model that we put out there.

Rob Wertheimer: Perfect. Fair enough. Then Rob, you were just touching on this, but I'm just thinking about how you monetize some of the capabilities you're bringing. You're maybe passing through tokens. I don't know if there's a margin there, but maybe you're hoping to win, you know, new logos from competitors, new people entering an ecosystem because the capabilities are bigger and easier. I wonder if you could just talk about what you see as the biggest opportunities as your capabilities expand.

Speaker #6: Perfect. And fair enough. And then, Rob, you were just touching on this, but I'm just thinking about how you monetize some of the capabilities you're bringing.

Speaker #6: You're maybe passing through tokens. I don't know if there's a margin there. But maybe you're hoping to win new logos from competitors, new people entering an ecosystem because the capabilities are bigger and easier.

Speaker #6: I wonder if you could just talk about what you see as the biggest opportunities as your capabilities expand.

Rob Painter: Rob, the frame I have on monetization starts with value delivery and value capture. You know, the extent to which we're creating positive outcomes and positive ROI for our customers, we backwards integrate from that into then what would be the fair share for our value capture out of that. You know, we're mostly focused on the AI capabilities we can create for ourselves on leveraging the Trimble platform and the unique data set and scope and breadth and depth that we have that we have globally. In doing so, you know, we believe, yes, that we can capture new addressable market. We think we can take market share over time.

Speaker #5: Rob, the frame I have on monetization starts with value delivery and value capture. So the extent to which we're creating positive outcomes and positive ROI for our customers, we backwards integrate from that into then what would be the fair share for our value capture out of that.

Speaker #5: So we're mostly focused on the AI capabilities we can create for ourselves. On leveraging the Trimble platform and the unique data set and scope and breadth and depth that we have globally.

Speaker #5: In doing so, we believe, yes, that we can capture new addressable market. We think we can take market share over time. I mentioned three different types of motions.

Rob Painter: There, you know, I mentioned, you know, three different types of motions, monetization motions, in answering that last question. You know, another one would be if you think about the announcement we made with SketchUp and Claude a few days ago, and the integration there is, you know, another motion we see where we can monetize is by creating new users, creating new customers, expanding that addressable market with Claude users who aren't already SketchUp users. By creating models in out of Claude, you need to bring those into a SketchUp model to be able to do more with that. We'll watch that to see if that's another avenue by which we can gain new customers. We see opportunities to increase the size of the addressable market.

Speaker #5: Monetization motions in answering that last question. Another one would be if you think about the announcement we made with SketchUp and Claude a few days ago, in the integration there, is another motion we see where we can monetize is by creating new users, creating new customers, expanding that addressable market with Claude users who weren't already SketchUp users.

Rob Painter: By creating models in out of Claude, you need to bring those into a SketchUp model to be able to do more with that. We'll watch that to see if that's another avenue by which we can gain new customers. We see opportunities to increase the size of the addressable market. We see opportunities, to monetize, through our fair share capture of the value and ROI that we deliver to our customers, and we'll see over time, how that plays out into market share.

Speaker #5: So by creating models in out of Claude, you need to bring those into a SketchUp model to be able to do more with that.

Speaker #5: So we'll watch that to see if that's new customers. So we see opportunities to increase the size of the addressable market. We see opportunities to monetize through our fair share capture of the value that an ROI that we deliver, to our customers.

Rob Painter: We see opportunities, to monetize, through our fair share capture of the value and ROI that we deliver to our customers, and we'll see over time, how that plays out into market share.

Speaker #5: And then we'll see over time how that plays out into market share.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Jason Salino with KeyBank Capital Markets. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Jason Celino: Hey, great. Thanks for taking my question. Rob, to that point, on that SketchUp Claude partnership that you have, it sounds like the goal is to maybe try to convert Claude users to SketchUp users, because I imagine they'll need a SketchUp seat. Is there any consumption, like Claude credits, you were talking about aligned with this partnership, or is it more on the license component? It wasn't lost on me that you weren't the only initial partners with this initial announcement. There's one other, but is this a table stakes kind of feature?

Speaker #5: Hey, great. Thanks for taking my question. Rob, to that point, on that SketchUp, Claude, partnership that you have, it sounds like the goal is to maybe try to convert Claude users to SketchUp users.

Speaker #5: Because I imagine they'll need SketchUp C, is there any consumption credits you were talking about aligned with this partnership, or is it more on the license component?

Speaker #5: And then it wasn't lost on me that you were one of the only initial partners with this initial announcement. There's one other, but could this, is this a table stakes kind of feature?

Jason Celino: You know, how do you think the, you know, partnerships with the frontier models kind of evolve for you and kind of the market?

Speaker #5: How do you think the partnerships with the frontier models kind of evolve for you and kind of the market? Well, good morning, Jason. Thanks for the questions.

Rob Painter: Well, good morning, Jason. Thanks for the questions. You know, I think that this is gonna be more table stakes to have different motions and way to reach the market, and we embrace that. Expect to see more from us across the portfolio. You know, that's one example where you can start with the modeling in Claude. I flip that around the inverse. You know, what we launched in Q4 was SketchUp AI, then where you can do that, what we call Vibe modeling, and natural language, you know, prompts within SketchUp itself to do the modeling. You wanna offer it in multiple avenues, and we'll see going more, call it atomic level at the capabilities.

Speaker #5: I think that this is going to be more table stakes. To have different motions and way to reach the market. And we embrace, we embrace that.

Speaker #5: So expect to see more from us across the portfolio. That's one example where you can start with the modeling in Claude. I flipped that around the inverse.

Speaker #5: What we launched in Q4 was SketchUp AI, then where you can do that. So we call it vibe modeling. And natural language prompts. Within SketchUp itself, to do the modeling.

Speaker #5: So you want to offer it in multiple avenues. And we'll see going more I call it atomic level at the capabilities. We want to be able to do that in Trimble Connect, for example, off of our agent, our own agentic.

Rob Painter: You know, we wanna be able to do that in Trimble Connect, for example, off of our own agentic AI platform. Multiple paths to market. We're learning a lot. You know, we're learning a lot internally. We'll learn a lot by following our customers and how they use it. We'll learn the motions and, let's say, optimize the motions of how to convert users and then to bring them into the Trimble ecosystem.

Speaker #5: AI platform. So multiple paths to market. We're learning a lot. We're learning a lot internally. We'll learn a lot by following our customers and how they use it.

Speaker #5: We'll learn the motions and, let's say, optimize the motions of how to convert users and then to bring them into the Trimble ecosystem. And once you're in that ecosystem, let's say if you've done a model, through Claude, then I talked about in the prepared remarks, if you want to do rendering or daylight analysis, on that, that creates capabilities for us to upsell and deliver more value to the customers once they're coming into SketchUp.

Rob Painter: Once you're, you know, in that ecosystem, let's say if you've done a model through Claude, and then I talked about it in the prepared remarks, if you want to do rendering or daylight analysis on that, you know, that creates capabilities for us to upsell and deliver more value to the customers once they're coming into SketchUp. Coming at it from multiple angles, I do think that it's table stakes that we're engaged on a number of levels, and I'm really proud of the team for the entrepreneurial spirit they're displaying. They're really going after it.

Speaker #5: So coming at it from multiple angles, I do think that it's table stakes. That we're engaged on a number of levels. And I'm really proud of the team for the entrepreneurial spirit they're displaying.

Speaker #5: They're really going after it.

Jason Celino: Okay. I might have missed it, but, you know, the field services strength in the quarter, I'm curious if any of this was, you know, demand that was pulled forward might not be the right word, but maybe deals had closed, you know, earlier than expected. It's just I look at kind of, you know, high oil prices, high memory prices. I wonder, you know, if clients are trying to, maybe, get ahead of some of those things.

Speaker #6: Okay. And then I might have missed it, but the field services strengths in the quarter, I'm curious if any of this was demand that was pulled forward might not be the right word, but maybe deals that closed earlier than expected.

Speaker #6: It's just I look at kind of the high oil prices, high memory prices, I wonder if clients are trying to maybe get ahead of some of those things.

Rob Painter: A good question, Jason. Within field systems, the demand was strong intrinsically in the quarter, so we saw no pull forward in the quarter whatsoever. The two pillars of strength in the quarter. First one's in civil construction. That really has just been continuing the trend of the last few years. I know you were at ConExpo, you saw our booth. Trimble was on 24 other OEM partner booths at ConExpo. The level of innovation the team continues to deliver, extensibility for swing booms on excavators, ground penetrating radar integrated into machine control is impressive to see reaching new machine types like compact track loaders, new OEM partnerships, new go-to-market partnerships with the Trimble Technology Outlets.

Speaker #5: Yeah, good question, Jason. So within field systems, the demand was strong intrinsically in the quarter. So we saw no pull forward in the quarter whatsoever.

Speaker #5: The two pillars of strength in the quarter, first ones in civil construction that really has just been continuing the trend of the last few years.

Speaker #5: I know you were at ConExpo. You saw our booth. Trimble was on 24 other OEM partner booths at ConExpo. The level of innovation the team continues to deliver—extensibility for swing booms on excavators.

Speaker #5: Ground penetrating radar integrated into machine control is impressive to see reaching the machine types like compact track loaders. OEM partnerships, new go-to-market partnerships with our Trimble technology outlets.

Rob Painter: The sum of activity is creating the demand from the product innovation side as well as the go-to-market reach. The survey team also had and delivered a strong, a strong quarter. I'd say also off the back of new platforms, data collector platforms, they've built and continue to go to market excellent. Really strong execution in the quarter. Really just a terrific print for the team.

Speaker #5: The sum of activity is creating the demand from the product innovation side, as well as the go-to-market reach. The survey team also had and delivered a strong quarter.

Speaker #5: I'd say also off the back of new platforms data collector platforms, they built and continue to go to market. Excellent. So really strong execution in the quarter really just a terrific print for the team.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Nay Soe Naing from Berenberg. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Naso Nang, from Barenberg. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Nay Soe Naing: Hi, good morning. Thanks for taking my questions. 2, if I may. The first one, if I could start with the AECO. You talked about the strength in your Trimble Construction One and Trimble Connect outside of the US. I was wondering, any highlights that you could call out that's really driving the upsell, cross-sell motion as well. In the regions outside of North America, if you could maybe talk a little bit about the competitive dynamics that you were seeing as well, that'd be really helpful. Thank you.

Speaker #7: Hi, good morning. Thanks for taking my question too, if I may. The first one, if I could start with the ACO, you've talked about the strength in your Trimble connection.

Speaker #7: What Trimble construction want and Trimble Connect. Outside of the US, I was wondering any highlights that you could call out that's really driving the upsell cross-sell motion as well.

Speaker #7: And then in the regions outside of North America if you could maybe talk a little bit about the competitive dynamics that you were seeing as well.

Speaker #7: That would be really helpful. Thank you.

Rob Painter: Hey, good morning. This is Rob. I'll take the question. With, with respect to Trimble Construction One, we launched the capabilities in Asia Pacific in the quarter. It's obviously still early as a result of that, but that to me is a real highlight because we've seen the positive benefits of that through North America and Europe. Within Europe, we brought ProjectSight to Europe in the last couple of quarters. The team is doing a really nice job starting to take that to market. In fact, I think the European growth was even faster than the North American growth in the quarter, and that would be indicative of the cross-sell and upsell motion.

Speaker #5: Hey, good morning. This is Rob. I'll take the question. So with respect to Trimble construction one, we launched the capabilities in Asia Pacific in the quarter.

Speaker #5: Still, let's obviously still early as a result of that. But that, to me, is a real highlight because we've seen the positive benefits of that through North America and Europe.

Speaker #5: Within Europe, we brought project site to Europe. In the last few, in the last couple of quarters, the team is doing a really nice job starting to take that to market.

Speaker #5: In fact, I think the European growth was even faster than the North American growth in the quarter. And that would be indicative of the cross-sell and upsell motion.

Rob Painter: Competitively, this is a unique set of capabilities we have at Trimble inside of that TC1 offering the breadth and depth of what we can bring to our customers, much less than when we now intersect what we can do with field systems and AECO. Uniquely positioned at a competitive standpoint. Strong highlights that to me, with the cross-sell and upsell, translated into the strength, not only the ARR and revenue beat, but also the bookings that support that ongoing growth here for the rest of the year.

Speaker #5: Competitively, this is a unique set of capabilities we have at Trimble inside of that TC1 offering the breadth and depth of what we can bring to our customers.

Speaker #5: Much less when we now intersect what we can do with field systems. And AECO. So uniquely positioned at a competitive standpoint, strong highlights that, to me, with the cross-sell and upsell that translated into the strength not only at the ARR and revenue beat, but also the bookings that support that ongoing growth here for the rest of the year.

Nay Soe Naing: That's really helpful. Thank you. My second question is around the SketchUp to Claude connector. You know, really exciting. I think someone's already flagged it as well. Only a few software vendors are following this approach in this design software space. I was just thinking more in terms of risk. I was wondering, you know, how would it work in terms of the data created in SketchUp through the users coming through Claude. Does Anthropic have access to that data, and is there any possibility that they might be able to replicate some of the SketchUp features through the data access that they might have going forward? Is it something that maybe we shouldn't worry about it at all?

Speaker #7: That's really helpful. Thank you. My second question is around the SketchUp to Claude Connect really exciting. I think someone's already flagged it as well.

Speaker #7: Only a few software vendors are following this approach in this design software space. So I was just thinking more in terms of risk. I was wondering how would it work in terms of the data created in SketchUp through the users coming through Claude?

Speaker #7: Does Anthropic get does it have access to that data? And is it any possibility that they might be able to replicate some of the SketchUp features through the data access that they might have going forward?

Speaker #7: Or is it something that maybe we shouldn't worry about it at all?

Rob Painter: I don't see a near-term concern on that relative to what Claude or another LLM provider could do in that respect. What we like about it is, in fact, we see more opportunity to expand the addressable market for people who are not Trimble customers today. What they have to do to be able to use the service is to create a Trimble identity. That's important so we can actually know who the user is. We believe we can capture customers and users who haven't used the tool before. We'd see a net opportunity to expand the size of the addressable market.

Speaker #5: I don't see a near-term concern on that relative to what Claude or another LLM provider could do in that respect. What we like about it is, in fact, we see more opportunity expanding addressable market for people who are not Trimble customers today what they have to do to be able to use the services to create a Trimble identity.

Speaker #5: So that's important so we can actually know who the user is. So we believe we can capture customers and users who haven't used the tool before.

Speaker #5: So we'd see in that opportunity to expand the size of the addressable market. And it becomes relatively easy to do that modeling because you're doing so through text prompts.

Rob Painter: It becomes relatively easy to do that modeling because you're doing so, through, you know, text prompts, in order to create that. Our opportunity then from a downstream monetization play, is to create new SketchUp users and then to upsell those SketchUp users, into, excuse me, the Trimble Construction One offering.

Speaker #5: In order to create in order to create that. So then our opportunity then from a downstream monetization play is to create new SketchUp users and then to upsell those SketchUp users into inside, excuse me, the Trimble construction line offering.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Jerry Revich with Wells Fargo. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Jerry Revich with Wells Fargo. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Jerry Revich. With Wells Fargo, your line is open. Please go ahead.

Jerry Revich: Yes. Hi. Good morning, everyone. Rob, I wonder if we just talk about just a minute on all of the data that you folks have and the value of bringing that together using the AI tools. Is there a way to quantify in terms of the number of projects that you folks have in the system, et cetera, just to build comfort around the ability to essentially leverage AI to drive incremental ARR as opposed to the risk factors that everybody's looking at?

Speaker #8: Yes, hi. Good morning, everyone. Rob, I wonder if we could just talk about just a minute on all of the data that you folks have and the value of bringing that together.

Speaker #8: Using the AI tools, is there a way to quantify in terms of the number of projects that you folks have in the system, etc., just to build comfort around the ability to essentially leverage AI to drive incremental ARR as opposed to the risk factors that everybody's looking at?

Rob Painter: Yeah. Hey, good morning, Jerry Revich. You know, you've heard me talk before about trillions, billions, millions, and thousands. $ trillions of construction run through Trimble today. $ tens of billions of freight run through Trimble. We have millions of users of our software, and hundreds of thousands of instruments and machines in the real physical world operate on Trimble. That is singularly unique. If we talk about, I'll double-click within that, and we take Trimble Connect, which provides that single source of truth, creates that digital twin between the physical and digital. Today, inside of Trimble Connect, more than 30 million projects have been created. There's been over 50 million users in Trimble Connect since inception. We have thousands of integrations, third-party integrations into the app, individual applications we have across Trimble.

Speaker #5: Yeah, hey, good morning, Jerry. You've heard me talk before about trillions, billions, millions, and thousands. Trillions of dollars of construction run through Trimble today.

Speaker #5: Tens of billions of freight run through Trimble. We have millions of users of our software and hundreds of thousands of instruments, machines, and the real physical world operate on Trimble.

Speaker #5: That is singularly unique. If we talk about it, I'll double-click within that, and we take Trimble Connect, which provides that single source of truth, creates that digital twin between the physical and digital.

Speaker #5: Today, inside of Trimble Connect, more than 30 million projects have been created. There's been over 50 million users and Trimble Connect since inception. We have thousands of integrations third-party integrations into the individual applications we have across Trimble.

Rob Painter: We have over 130 extensions, integrations that have been created inside our Trimble Marketplace, which is part of Trimble Connect. In fact, at Dimensions, at our user conference in November, which we'd love to see you and the community attend, we're actually gonna hold our first developer conference as part of that. You take this unique set of proprietary data, the density of that data, this is singularly unique. Creating the ecosystem and the partner network to build upon this is why we see such an opportunity for AI to be a logical extension of our connect and scale strategy, not really not even a separate initiative.

Speaker #5: We have over 130 extensions integrations that have been created inside our Trimble marketplace. Which is part of Trimble Connect. In fact, at dimensions that are user conference in November, which we'd love to see you and the community attend, we're actually going to hold our first developer conference as part of that.

Speaker #5: So you take this unique set of proprietary data that density of that data, this is singularly unique. Creating the ecosystem and the partner network to build upon this.

Speaker #5: This is why we see such an opportunity for AI to be a logical extension of our Connect and Scale strategy, not a really not even a separate initiative.

Rob Painter: We really think there's a lot of compelling aspects here for us and for our customers.

Speaker #5: So we're really I think there's a lot of compelling aspects here for us and for our customers.

Jerry Revich: Super. Then, from a margin standpoint, was really impressed with Transportation and logistics performance in the quarter. I don't know if the margins exceeded your internal plan, or but if you could just unpack the drivers of margins in the quarter. You know, I think typically, you do see a step-up in margins in the business Q2 versus Q1, I just wanna make sure there's nothing in the base that's extraordinary as we think about the bridge in that business from here.

Speaker #8: Super. And then from a margin standpoint, was really impressed with transportation and logistics performance in the quarter. I don't know if the margins exceeded your internal plan or but if you could just unpack the drivers of margins in typically you do see a step up in margins in the business two Q versus one Q.

Speaker #8: And I just want to make sure there's nothing in the base that's extraordinary as we think about the bridge in that business from here.

Rob Painter: Hey, Jerry, it's Phil. Yeah, thanks for the question. I'm really pleased with the team. As we lap ourselves, we had the mobility divestiture last year, there were some stranded costs within that business the team had worked on throughout the year. Really happy with the performance. We're guiding to about the same rate at the end of the year, throughout the year, the 24%. I think you can view this as structural as we go throughout the year.

Phil Sawarynski: Hey, Jerry, it's Phil. Yeah, thanks for the question. I'm really pleased with the team. As we lap ourselves, we had the mobility divestiture last year, there were some stranded costs within that business the team had worked on throughout the year. Really happy with the performance. We're guiding to about the same rate at the end of the year, throughout the year, the 24%. I think you can view this as structural as we go throughout the year.

Speaker #5: Hey, Jerry, it's Phil. Yeah, thanks for the question. I'm really pleased with the team as we got lap ourselves we had the mobility divestiture last year.

Speaker #5: And so there were some stranding costs within that business that the team had worked on throughout the year. And so really, really happy with the performance.

Speaker #5: We're guiding to about the same rate at the end of the year throughout the year. The 24%. So I think you can view this as structural as we go throughout the year.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Tami Zakaria with JPMorgan. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Tami Zakaria with JPMorgan. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Tammy Zakaria. With JP Morgan. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Tami Zakaria: Hi. Good morning. Very nice results. Congrats on that. This is a question from me, who is not a designer, and I don't use SketchUp or Claude to draw 3D models, so I apologize for the simplistic nature of the question. About the Claude partnership, it sounds very interesting, and I appreciate the TAM increased potential. Could you sort of explain how do you have confidence that Claude users would eventually migrate to using SketchUp instead of just staying on Claude that probably keeps getting better at giving customized designs on the platform? Maybe a better way to ask is, what's there in SketchUp now that Claude doesn't and will not be able to help with?

Speaker #9: Hi, good morning. Very nice results. Congrats on that. So this is a question from me who's not a designer and I don't use SketchUp or Claude to draw 3D models.

Speaker #9: So I apologize for the simplistic nature of the question. But about the Claude partnership, it sounds very interesting. And I appreciate that TAM increased potential.

Speaker #9: But could you sort of explain how do you have confidence that Claude users would eventually migrate to using SketchUp instead of just staying on Claude that probably keeps getting better at giving customized designs on the platform?

Speaker #9: Or maybe a better way to ask is, what's their SketchUp now that Claude doesn't and will not be able to help with?

Rob Painter: Hey, Tami. Good morning. Thanks for the question. I will be your personal sales rep to sell you a license of SketchUp and make you a user. Until then, imagine going to Claude and the natural language prompting. You don't have to be a user of the underlying modeling technology. You're new to the software, and you wanna create a model. You can do so through just typing the prompt of what you want. If you want a new patio for the backyard, it's of a certain size and, let's say dimensionality, and style that you wanna put in there. Okay, Claude's gonna deliver you a model. We believe that that's not enough.

Speaker #5: Hey, Tammy. Good morning. Thanks for the question. And I will be your personal sales rep to sell you a license of SketchUp and make you a user.

Speaker #5: Until then, what imagine going to Claude and not through natural language prompting. You don't have to be a user of the underlying modeling technology.

Speaker #5: So your new to the software. And you want to create a model. You can do so through just typing the prompt of what you want.

Speaker #5: If you want a new patio for the backyard and it's of a certain size and let's say dimensionality and style that you want to put in there.

Speaker #5: Okay, so the Claude's going to deliver you a model. We believe that that's not enough. You need to do something with that model. If you just wanted a picture of the model, you could create that in Claude.

Rob Painter: You need to do something with that model. If you just wanted a picture of the model, you could create that in Claude, but that's not actually gonna translate into the workflow. What you then do is if you've created that design of that model in Claude, you bring it into the SketchUp ecosystem in order to iterate on it. Because the one thing we know with a design is it's not static. You don't just do a prompt and then you're done. You want to iterate on that. You want to collaborate on that. Like, one of the real powers of SketchUp is the ability to have multi-user collaboration. Think about the coordination that an architect has with an engineer, much less a contractor or the owner. You're not gonna do that through the LLM.

Speaker #5: But that's not actually going to translate into the workflow. What you then do is you create that if you've created that design of that model in Claude, you bring it into the SketchUp ecosystem in order to iterate on it.

Speaker #5: Because the one thing we know with the design is it's not static. You don't just do a prompt and then you're done. You want to iterate on that.

Speaker #5: You want to collaborate on that. One of the real powers of SketchUp is the ability to have multi-user collaboration. And think about the coordination that an architect has with an engineer much less a contractor or the owner.

Speaker #5: You're not going to do that through the LLM. You're doing that through SketchUp and then leveraging Trimble Connect to drive that collaboration. And when you want to perform that professional-grade analysis and you want to do the energy modeling of that or the rendering on that model, you're going to come into the authoring application or the authoring tool, which is SketchUp, to do that.

Rob Painter: You're doing that through SketchUp and then leveraging Trimble Connect to drive that collaboration. And when you want to perform that professional-grade analysis, and you wanna do the energy modeling of that or the rendering of, on that model, you're gonna come into the authoring application or the authoring tool, which is SketchUp, to do that. I go back to the ability to have started in Claude in this example, is we're lowering the barrier to entry to create that next generation of AI-first professionals who then can bring those models into SketchUp for the next iterations of that.

Speaker #5: So I go back to the ability to have started in Claude in this example as we're lowering the barrier to entry to create that next-generation of AI-first professionals who can then bring those models into SketchUp for the next iterations.

Rob Painter: I don't know if I hope that helps you a little bit understand that, is that it's, you know, insufficient to complete a workflow with that initial model that you've created in an LLM. I agree with, I think the assertion you're making is that it's going to get better over time, and you can imagine then we'll put more capabilities into those engines up front over time. We wanna bring more Trimble capabilities throughout our ecosystem that direction as well. So much of that, again, I see as an ability to create new users for our tools. Remember that within the tools we have themselves, whether it's SketchUp or every other software application we're delivering at Trimble, we also have AI inside of those tools.

Speaker #5: Of that. So I don't know if I hope that helps you. A little bit understand that is that it's insufficient to complete a workflow with that initial model that you've created in an LLM.

Speaker #5: I agree with I think the assertion you're making is that it's going to get better over time and you can imagine and we'll put more capabilities into those engines up front over time.

Speaker #5: And we want to bring more Trimble capabilities throughout our ecosystem that direction as well. At this and it's so much of that again, I see as an ability to create new users for our tools.

Speaker #5: And remember that within the tools we have themselves, whether it's SketchUp or every other software application we're delivering at Trimble, we also have AI inside of those tools.

Rob Painter: Think of Claude inside, AI, Claude inside of SketchUp as opposed to SketchUp inside of Claude. We work it from multiple angles.

Speaker #5: So think of Claude inside AI as Claude inside of SketchUp, as opposed to SketchUp inside of Claude. We work it from multiple angles.

Tami Zakaria: That is extremely helpful. Thank you so much. My second question, I wanted to double-click on Field Systems. The year started off really strong, but you're still targeting low to mid-single-digit organic growth. Can you remind us what you're expecting for Q2? To get to your full year guide, we need to see a lot of slowdown versus the Q1 number you had. Is it conservatism? Are you seeing an impact from the Iran war in Q2, and you expect that to stay for the rest of the year? Any color on Field Systems?

Speaker #9: That is extremely helpful. Thank you so much. And my second question, I wanted to double-click on Phil Systems, the year started off really strong.

Speaker #9: But you're still targeting low to mid-single-digit organic growth. Can you remind us what you're expecting for two Q and to get to your full year guide?

Speaker #9: We need to see a lot of slowdown versus the first quarter number you had. So is it conservatism? Are you seeing an impact from the Iran war in Q2, and do you expect that to stay for the rest of the year?

Speaker #9: So any color on fuel systems?

Phil Sawarynski: Hey, Tami, it's Phil. I'd say, you know, the Q1 obviously reflected what we saw last year, particularly in civil construction. The market continues to be strong, particularly in that business. Rob mentioned, geospatial performed well in Q1. As we start to think about the rest of the year in that business, this is the one we have the least visibility with the hardware, particularly. We start to get into last year, we had really strong H2. Part of this is the year-over-year, the comps. Part of this is the Middle East, you know, starting around the tariff policy, just some of the macros. I'd say, you know, we've incorporated the risk.

Speaker #5: Yeah, hey, Tammy. It's Phil. I'd say the first quarter obviously reflected what we saw last year, particularly in civil construction. So the market continues to be strong, particularly in that business.

Speaker #5: Rob mentioned geospatial performed well in the first quarter. As we start to think about the rest of the year in that business, this is the one that has we have the least visibility with the hardware, particularly.

Speaker #5: And we start to get into last year, we had really strong second half of the year. So part of this is the year-over-year, the comps.

Speaker #5: And part of this is the Middle East and certainly around the tariff policy. Just some of the macros. I'd say so we've incorporated the risk.

Phil Sawarynski: We also incorporate the opportunities as we think about the guide and where the strength of the market is. At this point, again, we started the year very well, but we'll continue to keep an eye on it, on the market, and update you in a few months.

Speaker #5: We also incorporate the opportunities as we think about the guide and where the strength of the market is. At this point, again, we started the year very well.

Speaker #5: But we'll continue to keep an eye on it and market and update you in a few months.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Joshua Tilton with Wolfe Research. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Joshua Tilton with Wolfe Research. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #8: Your next question comes from the line of Joshua Tilton with Wolf Research. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Joshua Tilton: Hey, guys. Thanks for sneaking me in. Congrats on a good quarter, just two quick ones from me. The first one is kind of a follow-up question to, I think, a question a lot of my peers have been trying to ask you on the call so far. I think that's around the Claude integration announcement. I think what a lot of people are trying to understand is just as you know, as you integrate more and more with Claude, you are increasing your users' productivity. I think people are trying to understand how are you guys setting up yourselves to capture that increase in productivity that the Claude connector will provide your average SketchUp user.

Speaker #10: Hey, guys. Thanks for sneaking me in. Congrats on a good quarter. And just two quick ones from me. The first one is kind of a follow-up question to I think a question a lot of my peers have been trying to ask you on the call so far.

Speaker #10: And I think that's around the Claude integration announcement. And I think what a lot of people are trying to understand is just as you integrate more and more with Claude, you are increasing your users' productivity.

Speaker #10: And I think people are trying to understand how are you guys setting up yourselves to capture that increase in productivity that the Claude connector will provide your average SketchUp user.

Joshua Tilton: I think the second question that I have, just a quick follow-up, is on that last field system comment that you mentioned, is it fair to assume that there is more conservatism in the field systems outlook today than there was 90 days ago, given everything that's going on in the world and the visibility that you just spoke to? Thanks.

Speaker #10: And I think the second question that I have just a quick follow-up is on that last field system comment that you mentioned. Is it fair to assume that there is more conservatism in the field systems outlook today than there was 90 days ago given everything that's going on in the world and the visibility that you just spoke to?

Speaker #10: Thanks.

Rob Painter: Hey, Josh. Good morning. It's Rob. I'll take both of those. With respect to Field Systems, what I want you to assume is that well, we've actually increased the guide for the year. I want you to see that we don't see that anything has fundamentally changed in the market. We're 3 months, from a reporting standpoint, we're 3 months into the year. We got 9 more to go. Let's see where things are, how they're shaking out in 3 months from now. No fundamental change in view in the Field Systems business. In fact, if anything, you could say it's better because of the raise, some of the raise we put through. That's what you need to hear on that one.

Speaker #5: Hey, Josh. Good morning. It's Rob. I'll take both of those. With respect to field systems, I'd say what I want you to assume is that what we've actually increased the guide for the year.

Speaker #5: So I want you to see that we don't see that anything is fundamentally changed in the market. We're three months from a reporting standpoint.

Speaker #5: We're three months into the year. We got nine more to go. Let's see where things are how they're shaking out in three months from now.

Speaker #5: So no fundamental change in view in the field systems business. In fact, if anything, you could say it's better because of the raise some of the raise we've put through.

Speaker #5: That's what you need to hear on that one. With respect to Claude and as we integrate Trimble capabilities, with LLMs and increase our users' productivity, we start what I want you to hear there is we start by increasing our users' productivity within the tools they already use from us today.

Rob Painter: With respect to Claude, and as we integrate Trimble capabilities with LLMs and increase our users' productivity, what I would want you to hear there is we start by increasing our users' productivity within the tools they already use from us today. That's the primary place we start. When I think about going the other way, and if when we're working with Claude, with the SketchUp example or other examples that I think you'll see in time to come, we think of those as opportunities to create new users. We think of that as opportunities for our existing users to start, if that's where they wanna start, and then bring those models into to SketchUp.

Speaker #5: That's the primary place we start. When I think about going the other way, and if when we're working with Claude and with this SketchUp example or other examples that I think you'll see in time to come, we think of those as opportunities to create new users.

Speaker #5: We think of that as opportunities for our existing users to start, if that's where they want to start, and then bring those models into the SketchUp.

Rob Painter: I just can't stress enough that for the professional user, let's separate maybe the professional user from the consumer user of SketchUp. At that professional user level, you need to bring those files into our ecosystem if you're gonna iterate, if you're gonna collaborate, and if you're gonna perform professional-grade analysis. That's the difference between the professional user and, let's say, the maker, the consumer user of SketchUp. I totally embrace SketchUp consumers. That is the bulk of the user count that we have in that community, and it creates that brand and the content that we have in it. Really monetize at the professional grade level. That is fundamentally different set of workflow, and hopefully, that helps answer the question.

Speaker #5: I just can't stress enough that for the professional user, let's separate maybe the professional user from the consumer. User of SketchUp at that professional user level, you need to bring those files into our ecosystem.

Speaker #5: If you're going to iterate, you're going to collaborate, and if you're going to perform professional grade analysis. That's the difference between the professional user and let's say the maker, the consumer user of SketchUp.

Speaker #5: I totally embrace SketchUp consumers. That is the bulk of the user count that we have. And that community, and it creates that brand and the content that we have in it.

Speaker #5: We really monetize at the professional grade level. That is fundamentally different set of workflow. And hopefully, that helps answer the question.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Chad Dillard with Bernstein. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Chad Dillard with Bernstein. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #8: Your next question comes from the line of Chad Dillard with Bernstein. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Chad Dillard: Hey, good morning, guys. I'm gonna continue on the SketchUp and Claude line of questioning. A few for me. I guess first of all, like from an economic standpoint, I'm assuming you guys, you know, price for this added feature. Like, how do you guys think about the split up between what Trimble gets versus what Claude gets? Who owns the data? I'm just trying to understand, like, how does this compress the learning curve going to more of an agentic approach? Maybe lastly, you know, this is, you know, SketchUp was like, kind of like the first deployment, where else do you see this sort of, you know, relationship evolving across your different product sets?

Speaker #11: Hey, good morning, guys. I'm going to continue on the SketchUp and Claude line of questioning. So a few for me. So I guess first of all, from an economic standpoint, I'm assuming you guys price for this added feature.

Speaker #11: How do you guys think about the split up between what Trimble gets versus what Claude gets? Who owns the data? And I'm just trying to understand how does this compress the learning curve going to more of an agentic approach?

Speaker #11: And maybe lastly, this is SketchUp was kind of like the first deployment, but where else do you see this sort of relationship evolving across your different product sets?

Rob Painter: Hey, good morning, Chad. This is Rob. I'll take that. Okay, there's a few topics in there. Hopefully, I can capture them here. The data is the customer's data, so I always wanna orient starting there. That customer is creating a model, an example that we talked about today. That model is downloadable, and you can bring it into SketchUp. From an economic standpoint, let me highlight two different motions we have. One motion is the announcement we had in Q4 of last year where we have SketchUp AI. It's an add-on subscription to the SketchUp license you already have. With that SketchUp AI license, it's only $11.99 a month for that add-on license.

Speaker #5: Hey, good morning, Chad. This is Rob. I'll take that. Okay. There's a few topics in there. Hopefully, I can capture them here. The data is the customer's data.

Speaker #5: So I always want to orient starting there. And that customer is creating a model, an example that we talked about today. That model is downloadable, and you can bring it into and you can bring it into SketchUp.

Speaker #5: From an economic standpoint, let me highlight two different motions we have. One motion is the announcement we had in Q4 of last year where we have SketchUp AI.

Speaker #5: It's an add-on subscription to the SketchUp license you already have. And with that SketchUp AI, license, it's only $11.99 a month for that add-on license.

Rob Painter: You get a set of credits for it or tokens, but think of it as credits that you, that you get. From that, I'll call it economic standpoint, that is directly to Trimble. It's all Trimble and obviously, there's a variable cost when we're on the consumption side of that, but we built that into the pricing model. What we're asking about with Claude, if you start in Claude where, and you create that model that's downloadable, what we really see is the economic model there is to create users downstream. That's the way I would think about that. How can we create those users downstream? Well, at least today, we start by requiring them to have a Trimble ID.

Speaker #5: You get a set of credits for it or tokens. But think of it as credits. That you get. So from that, I'll call it economic standpoint, that is directly to Trimble.

Speaker #5: It's all Trimble. And obviously, there's a variable cost when we're on the consumption side of that, but we built that into the pricing model.

Speaker #5: What we are asking about with Claude, if you start in Claude, where and you create that model that's downloadable, what we really see is that economic model there is to create users downstream.

Speaker #5: That's the way I would think about that. And how can we create those users downstream? Well, at least today, we start by requiring them to have a Trimble ID, and when you have that Trimble ID, that's how you're able to download that SketchUp model and then bring it into and to SketchUp as the authoring tool.

Rob Painter: When you have that Trimble ID, that's how you're able to download that SketchUp model and then bring it into SketchUp as the authoring tool. There's multiple paths to monetization. I think about when in the first, one of the first, I think it was the second question we got this morning, when we talk about tokens, I see that as a tactic. That's one of multiple tactics that we have. We'll have tactics of monetization, where we bundle AI capabilities into the good, better, best offerings, and clearly, we wanna upsell customers into the better and the best. We provide a higher value, we'll monetize there. We'll monetize purely as standalone transaction or consumption.

Speaker #5: So there's multiple paths to monetization. And I think about in the first one of the first, I think it was the second question we got this morning, when we talk about tokens, I see that as a tactic.

Speaker #5: That's one of multiple tactics that we have. We'll have tactics of monetization where we bundle AI capabilities into the good, better, best offerings. And clearly, we want to upsell customers into the better and the best.

Speaker #5: We provide a higher value. We'll monetize there. We'll monetize purely as standalone transaction or consumption. And one of the reasons we are attracted to the transporting acquisition when we did it is there's well over $100 million of transactional revenue that comes from that business.

Rob Painter: You know, one of the reasons we were attracted to the Transporeon acquisition when we did it is there's well over $100 million of transactional revenue that comes from that business. We don't have to imagine a world with transactional revenue. We have a world with transactional or consumption-based revenue. Inside of that, we've got autonomous, which are, in other words, those are AI-first products that we're monetizing on a consumption-based level. We're open to multiple doors and avenues as the tactics to monetize the capabilities that we're bringing to market. We think we can do so in a way that expands the size of the addressable market while we're doing it. All of this is early days.

Speaker #5: We don't have to imagine a world with transactional revenue. We have a world with transactional or consumption-based revenue. And inside of that, we've got autonomous, which in other words, there's our AI-first products that we're monetizing on a consumption-based level.

Speaker #5: So we're open to multiple doors and avenues as the tactics to monetize the capabilities that we're bringing to market. And we think we can do so in a way that expands the size of the addressable market while we're doing it.

Speaker #5: And all of this is early days. And we see it as a virtue that we're out there in the market, that we're testing, that we're learning, and that we're leading.

Rob Painter: We see it as virtue that we're out there in the market, that we're testing, that we're learning, and that we're leading.

Chad Dillard: Great. That's helpful. Second question. Can you talk about what Trimble is doing to shift from like the, I guess, the co-pilot or assistant-based AI to more of an autonomous workflow product? I guess one thing I'm trying to get at is, you know, do you have all the everything in your tech stack inside the four walls of Trimble, or do you need to go out and acquire some of those capabilities? You know, where is, you know, some of the low-hanging fruit today to deploy autonomous workflow in your products?

Speaker #1: Great. That's helpful. So second question. Can you talk about what Trimble's doing to shift from, I guess, the Copilot or assistant-based AI to more of an autonomous workflow product?

Speaker #1: I guess one thing I'm trying to hit at is, do you have all the everything in your tech stack inside the four walls of Trimble?

Speaker #1: Or do you need to go out and acquire some of those capabilities? And then where is some of the low-hanging fruit today to deploy autonomous workflow in your products?

Rob Painter: Chad, let me come at that from a couple of different angles. It's an interesting, it's an interesting question. In terms of our own agentic AI development, we have multiple teams in the company that are working on it. Really twofold. One, from the engineering construction, which is the intersection of field systems and AECO, and the second in transportation. Each of those teams have agentic AI teams, and we believe we don't need to go acquire, let's say, an agentic AI platform because we're doing it ourselves. We wanna do that organically. Now, the Document Crunch example is one where we acquired to create a new category.

Speaker #5: I'm Chad. Let me come at that from a couple of different angles. It's an interesting question. In terms of our own agentic AI development, we have multiple teams in the company that are working on it.

Speaker #5: But really, twofold. One, from the engineering and construction, which is the intersection of field systems and ACO. And the second, in transportation. So each of those teams have agentic AI teams.

Speaker #5: And we believe we don't need to go acquire, let's say, an agentic AI platform because we're doing it ourselves. We want to do that organically.

Speaker #5: Now, the document crunch example is one where we acquired to create a new category. And in this case, an AI-powered risk management category. And where we see through document crunch that we can link contract intelligence and compliance automation and link that with the project management that we deliver at Trimble with estimating that we deliver at Trimble and with the ERP.

Rob Painter: In this, in this case, an AI-powered risk management category, and where we see through Document Crunch that we can link contract intelligence and compliance automation, and link that with the project management that we deliver at Trimble, with estimating that we deliver at Trimble, and with the ERP workflows we have at Trimble. That's singularly unique. It's bespoke, it's domain-specific. That creates a new category. We're open to that. The last example I'll give you is really coming more at it from a field systems perspective. I'm gonna sort of maybe take a play on the word of autonomy. You know, Trimble's been an autonomy company for decades. We happen to call it machine control and guidance. It's between level 2 and 3 autonomy today.

Speaker #5: Workflows we have at Trimble. That's singularly unique. It's bespoke. It's domain-specific. That creates a new category. We're open to that. The last example I'll give you is really coming more at it from a field systems perspective.

Speaker #5: And I'm going to maybe pick a play on the word of autonomy. Trimble has been an autonomy company for decades. We happen to call it machine control and guidance.

Speaker #5: It's between level two and three autonomy today. We already are an autonomy company. And we see what underlies that is a grade control engine.

Rob Painter: We already are an autonomy company, we see what underlies that is a grade control engine. We see autonomy as a feature extension of the grade control engine that we take to market today. We will, on our own, continue to work up the stack in autonomy, because we see autonomy as a progressive series of automation. We'll create extensibility on top of our grade control engine platform. That's how we reach these new categories, whether they're safety applications, whether they're ground-penetrating radar applications, whether it's a new machine-type integrations. A lot of which we believe we can deliver when we focus on the underlying platform and extensibility of that.

Speaker #5: And we see autonomy as a feature extension of the grade control engine that we take to market today. So we will, on our own, continue to work up the stack of autonomy because we see autonomy as a progressive series of automation.

Speaker #5: And we'll create extensibility on top of our grade control engine platform. And that's how we reach these new categories, whether they're safety applications, whether they're ground-penetrating radar applications, or whether it's new machine type integrations.

Speaker #5: A lot of which we can believe we can deliver when we focus on the underlying platform and extensibility of that.

Clarke Jeffries: Hello. Thank you for taking the question, and I apologize if I missed this, but, I believe reported ARR for AECO was 17% versus the 14% organic. Was there something driving that? I'd assume Document Crunch is gonna be in a future quarter, when that closes. Did I miss something there?

Speaker #6: Hello. Thank you for taking the question. And I apologize if I missed this. But I believe reported ARR for ACO was 17% versus the 14% organic.

Speaker #6: Was there something driving that? I'd assume document crunch is going to be in a future quarter when that closes. So am I missing something there?

Rob Painter: Hey, Clark. Phil. The difference is the FX. There's still a benefit with the weaker US dollar for Q1 this year. That's the difference.

Phil Sawarynski: Hey, Clark. Phil. The difference is the FX. There's still a benefit with the weaker US dollar for Q1 this year. That's the difference.

Speaker #5: Hey, Clark. So no. The difference is the FX. There's still a benefit with the weaker dollar for the first quarter of this year. So that's a difference.

Clarke Jeffries: Understood. Okay. Second question, I mean, it does seem pretty exceptional what happened in AECO and transportation and logistics from a gross margin and operating margin perspective. Just maybe could we talk about the OpEx timing that did affect field systems? To what extent is that one time and may resolve itself in future quarters in terms of not have that lump of OpEx? Anything to kind of speak about whether or not we're really getting to a point where the leverage, the recurring revenue across these portfolios are starting to really pick up on the margin benefit here? Thanks.

Speaker #6: Understood. Okay. And then second question, maybe just following up on one of the questions around operating margin. I mean, it does seem pretty exceptional what happened in the ECO and transportation logistics from a gross margin and operating margin perspective.

Speaker #6: Just maybe could we talk about the OPEX timing that did affect field systems? To what extent is that one time and may resolve itself in future quarters in terms of not have that lump of OPEX?

Speaker #6: Anything to kind of speak about whether or not we're really getting to a point where the leverage, the recurring revenue across these portfolios are starting to really pick up on the margin benefit here.

Speaker #6: Thanks.

Rob Painter: Yeah. Hey, Clark, Phil again. Yeah, at the company level, really good progress on the margin expansion. What I really like about the company model is there's an and in there. We're able to expand margins, and we're able to reinvest in the growth. I think the teams have done really well. As I think about, yeah, I think you asked a specific question in field systems. We did have some ConExpo Rob had mentioned, trade shows in Q1. We had some additional expenses, and that's where I was saying some of the timing when I mentioned that. There's a couple other things on the innovation side, and particularly in FedRAMP for our certification that we're investing in. What I mentioned about the investing in future growth, that's one of the additional expenses.

Phil Sawarynski: Yeah. Hey, Clark, Phil again. Yeah, at the company level, really good progress on the margin expansion. What I really like about the company model is there's an and in there. We're able to expand margins, and we're able to reinvest in the growth. I think the teams have done really well. As I think about, yeah, I think you asked a specific question in field systems. We did have some ConExpo Rob had mentioned, trade shows in Q1.

Speaker #5: Yeah. Hey, Clark. Still again. Yeah. So at the company level, really good progress on the margin expansion. And what I really like about the company model is there's an and in there.

Speaker #5: We're able to expand margins and we're able to reinvest in the growth. So I think the teams have done really well. As I think about I think you asked the specific question in field systems.

Speaker #5: So we did have some CONEXPO, Rob had mentioned, trade shows in Q1. And so we had some additional expenses. And that's where I was saying some of the timing when I mentioned that.

Phil Sawarynski: We had some additional expenses, and that's where I was saying some of the timing when I mentioned that. There's a couple other things on the innovation side, and particularly in FedRAMP for our certification that we're investing in. What I mentioned about the investing in future growth, that's one of the additional expenses. If you look at what we guided for the year, we ended up in Q1 about 28.8% on OI, and we're guiding toward 31% for the rest of the year. We see improvement.

Speaker #5: There's a couple of other things on the innovation side, and particularly in FedRAMP. For our certification that we're investing in. And when I mentioned about the investing in future growth, that's one of the additional expenses.

Rob Painter: If you look at what we guided for the year, we ended up in Q1 about 28.8% on OI, and we're guiding toward 31% for the rest of the year. We see improvement.

Speaker #5: But if you look at what we guided for the year, we ended up in Q1 about 28.8% on OI. And we're guiding toward 31% of the rest for the rest of the year.

Speaker #5: So we see improvement.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Jonathan Ho with William Blair. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Jonathan Ho with William Blair. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #1: Your next question comes from the line of Jonathan Ho. With William Blair. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Jonathan Ho: Hi. Good morning. I wanted to start out with Document Crunch. Can you give us a sense of how you can cross-sell this to your base? You know, maybe what does the economics sort of look like in terms of that incremental add-on?

Speaker #7: Hi. Good morning. I wanted to start out with document crunch. Can you give us a sense of how you can cross-sell this to your base?

Speaker #7: And maybe what is the economics sort of look like in terms of that incremental add-on?

Rob Painter: Hey, Jonathan. Good morning. You know, I think as you heard me say in the prepared remarks, it creates a new high-value category for us in AI-powered risk management. To think about the billions of construction that runs through our ERP today and the tens of millions projects, we have in Trimble Connect, the project management capabilities, think about the tools we have in the field. There's an enormous amount of data when we think about linking that contract intelligence and compliance automation that comes from Document Crunch into those project management estimating and ERP workflows that we already have today. The value proposition is pretty clear in terms of the risk that comes with the construction industry, which I think is relatively well understood.

Speaker #5: Hey, Jonathan. Good morning. So I think as you heard me say in the prepared remarks, it creates a new high-value category. For us in the AI-powered risk of management.

Speaker #5: So to think about the billions of construction that runs through our ERP today and the tens of millions of projects we have in Trimble Connect, the project management capabilities, think about the tools.

Speaker #5: We have in the field. There's an enormous amount of data when we think about linking that contract intelligence and compliance automation that comes from document crunch into those project management estimating and ERP workflows.

Speaker #5: That we already have today. And the value proposition is pretty clear in terms of the risk that comes with the construction industry, which I think is relatively well understood.

Rob Painter: Particularly in North America, it's a litigious industry. Claims are high dollars in an industry that happens to already be low, low margin. This goes, you know, well beyond any kind of document review in order to really power that risk management for our customers. Now, okay, with that value proposition, how we take it to market, we'll bundle that inside of Trimble Construction One. Out of the gate, we go about it through, I'll call it, traditional cross-selling, and we'll build the motions to more tightly integrate it with Trimble Construction One. In other words, so that it's on the one piece of paper coming from Trimble.

Speaker #5: It's a particularly North America. It's a litigious industry. Claims are high dollars. In an industry that happens to already be low margin. So this goes well beyond any kind of document review in order to really power that risk management for our customers.

Speaker #5: So now, okay, with that value proposition, how we take it to market, we'll bundle that inside of Trimble Construction One. Out of the gate, we go about it through, I'll call it, traditional cross-selling.

Speaker #5: And we'll build the motions to more tightly integrate it with Trimble Construction One. In other words, so that's on one piece of paper coming from Trimble.

Rob Painter: We like what we see out of the gate relative to customer inquiry in terms of the press that the deal has generated. It's getting nice coverage. Our selling teams are excited to have it, and customers are telling us this is exactly where they wanna go. That intersection of gotta have the right product, meet the right go-to-market motion, feeling good about this one, stay tuned. We'll keep you updated how it's going.

Speaker #5: And we like what we see out of the gate. Relative to customer inquiry in terms of the press that the deal has generated, it's getting nice coverage.

Speaker #5: Our selling teams are excited to have it. And customers are telling us this is exactly where they want to go. So that intersection of you've got to have the right product.

Speaker #5: Meet the right go-to-market motion. Feeling good about this one. And stay tuned. We'll keep you updated how it's going.

Jonathan Ho: Great. Just as a quick follow-up, with the use of AI potentially, you know, maybe displacing some workers, do you see any threat to any of the seat-based licensing models that you have as well? You know, is there the opportunity to shift to, you know, maybe more value-based pricing over time? Thank you.

Speaker #7: Great. And just as a quick follow-up, with the use of AI potentially maybe displacing some workers, do you see any threat to any of the seat-based licensing models that you have as well?

Speaker #7: Or is there the opportunity to shift to maybe more value-based pricing over time? Thank you.

Rob Painter: You know, we go back to that monetization conversation we've had in the prepared remarks and through some of the Q&A. That's one of the reasons you see us talking about hybrid models. We do have a belief that we'll see more hybrid models, hybrid at the intersection of the named user license and consumption. At the same time, we have some consumption-only businesses and capabilities as well. There's multiple tactics that we can deploy in that respect. Our industry today is not demand-constrained. We have Our customers have significant backlog. There's a labor shortage. You know, we're hundreds of thousands of workers short in North America alone.

Speaker #5: We go back to that monetization conversation we've had in the prepared remarks and through some of the Q&A. That's one of the reasons you see us talking about hybrid models.

Speaker #5: So I do have we do have a belief that we'll see more hybrid models. Hybrid at the intersection of the named user license. And consumption.

Speaker #5: At the same time, we have some consumption-only businesses and capabilities as well. So there's multiple tactics that we can deploy in that respect. Our industry today is not demand-constrained.

Speaker #5: We have our customers have significant backlog. There's a labor shortage. We're hundreds of thousands of workers short in North America. Alone. So in the near term, it's hard to see it's hard to see any kind of fundamental worker displacement.

Rob Painter: In the near term, it's hard to see any kind of fundamental worker displacement. We'll always want to anchor to what's the value that we're delivering for our customers and then, to me, back into the monetization, which is a tactic. We're not shelfware. We're not a nice-to-have thing that you use every once in a while. We are fundamental to our system, to our customers' work. If you're a worker out in the field, you're using our tools all day long. If you're a project manager, you're managing an ERP, you're a civil designer, you're a mechanical estimator, you're an architect, you're working inside of Trimble all day long.

Speaker #5: We'll always want to anchor to what's the value that we're delivering for our customers. And then to me, the money back into the monetization.

Speaker #5: Which is a tactic. We're not shelfware. We're not a nice-to-have thing that you use every once in a while. We are fundamental to our system to our customers' work.

Speaker #5: If you're a worker out in the field, you're using our tools all day long. If you're a project manager, you're managing in the ERP.

Speaker #5: You're a civil designer. You're a mechanical estimator. You're an architect. You're working inside of Trimble all day long. So long as we've got these labor shortages, as long as we continue to provide the value, I feel good about our ability to continue to drive the revenue in the business.

Rob Painter: Long as long as we've got these labor shortages, as long as we continue to provide the value, I feel good about our ability to continue to drive the revenue of the business.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Guy Hardwick with Barclays. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Guy Hardwick with Barclays. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #1: Your next question comes from the line of Guy Hardwick. With Barclays. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Guy Hardwick: Hi. Good morning. Hi, Rob, Phil, and Michael. Maybe I missed this earlier, apologies if I did, but it looks like you beat your Q1 guidance for revenues for about $35 million, and you've raised your full year guidance for revenues by only $15 million. I look at the supplementary information, it looks like Q1 2026 is gonna be a higher proportion of total revenue, and you can half by about half a point for both quarters. Is it really a pull forward you saw in Q1, but at this point, you don't feel you can raise the full year as much as you beat in Q1? That's the first part of my question. The second part, you also took the top end of your EBITDA guidance down 20 basis points.

Speaker #8: Hi. Good morning. Hi, Rob Phil and Michael. Maybe I missed this earlier. Apologies if I did. But it just looks like you meet your Q1 guidance for revenues were about 35 million.

Speaker #8: And you've raised your four-year guidance for revenues by only 15 million. And now look at the supplementary information. It looks like Q1 of '26 is going to be a higher proportion of total revenue.

Speaker #8: And you can half by that half a point for both quarters. So is it really a pull forward you saw in Q1? But at this point, you don't feel you can raise the full year as much as you've beaten the first quarter?

Speaker #8: And that's the first part of my question. The second part's your part. You also took the top end of your EBITDA guidance down 20 bits.

Guy Hardwick: Just wondering, was that really mix-driven, or was there anything else for reason for that?

Speaker #8: So just wondering was that really mix-driven or was there anything else for reason for that?

Rob Painter: Good morning, guys. This is Rob. I'll add color to what Phil has already talked about in the prepared remarks and in the Q&A. Answer, no pull forward in the quarter. Really by our own policy, I do not like to raise guidance after Q1, to be 3 months into the year. That's the standard way I wanna approach it. Given the strength of that Q1, we did flow $15 million of that into the year. I'm thinking about it from the perspective of the year. I feel good about where we're positioned now. I feel good about the rest of the year.

Speaker #5: Hey, good morning, Guy. This is Rob. I'll add color to what Phil has already talked about in the call in the prepared remarks and in the Q&A.

Speaker #5: Answer no pull forward in the quarter. Really, by our own policy, I do not like to raise guidance after the first quarter. To be three months into the year.

Speaker #5: That's the standard way I want to approach it. Given the strength of that Q1, we did flow 15 million of that into the year.

Speaker #5: I'm thinking about it from the perspective of the year. Feel good about where we are positioned. For I feel good about where we're positioned now.

Speaker #5: I feel good about the rest of the year. As we all know, there's volatility and uncertainty out in the world. We'll update you in three months where we are there.

Rob Painter: As we all know, there's volatility, uncertainty out in the world. We'll update you in three months, where we are there. Really just think about it as a, there's a beat and a raise, and it's within the frame of wanting to hold that model for the year.

Speaker #5: So really just think about it as a there's a beat and a raise. And it's within the frame of wanting to hold that model for the year.

Guy Hardwick: Just as a follow-up. Obviously, you're getting very close to 2027 and the potential for meeting some of the 2027 targets this year, potentially on the EBITDA margin line. You're already probably getting questions from investors about future targets. What could we hear about 2028 targets or beyond? Is that something you would look at maybe later this year?

Speaker #8: And just as a follow-up, and you'll see you're getting very close to 2027. And the potential for meeting some of the 2027 targets this year.

Speaker #8: And potentially on the EBITDA margin line. You're already probably getting questions from investors about future targets. So what could we hear about 2028 targets or beyond?

Speaker #8: Is that something you would look at maybe later this year?

Rob Painter: A good question. I think that's important to reiterate that the 3/4/30 model, 3 billion ARR, 4 billion revenue, 30% op margins in 2027. Look at the numbers that are in the guide that Phil put forward, we are well on track for that play forward operating leverage on top of revenue growth into 2027. It stands to reason that, you know, why we are affirming our path to that 2027 model. We're continuing to deliver and balance the short-term and the long-term progression of Trimble. We're not yet ready to talk about 2028 or to set a frame on that. We haven't yet even thought about when it would be the next logical Investor Day to have.

Speaker #5: A good question. I think that's important to reiterate that the 3, 4, 30 model 3 billion ARR, 4 billion revenue, 30% up margins in 2027.

Speaker #5: Look at the numbers that are in the guide that Phil put forward. And we are well on track for that. Play forward operating levers on top of revenue growth into 2027.

Speaker #5: And it stands to reason that why we are affirming our path to that 2027 model. We're continuing to deliver and balance the short term and the long term progression of Trimble.

Speaker #5: We're not yet ready to talk about 2028 or to set a frame on that. We haven't yet even thought about when it would be the next logical investor day to have.

Rob Painter: Though we think it would be smart to put something together for our user conference in November to invite the analyst community investors to see Trimble in action at Trimble Dimensions in Las Vegas in November. See that, I think you can get renewed appreciation for the uniqueness and the quality of what we're doing and why we would continue to have conviction that 2028, you know, would continue the path of growth and margin expansion that we're delivering today.

Speaker #5: That we think it would be smart to put something together for our user conference in November to invite the analyst community, investors, to see Trimble in action.

Speaker #5: At the Trimble Dimensions in Las Vegas in November. See that. And I think you can get renewed appreciation for the uniqueness and the quality of what we're doing and why we would continue to have conviction that 2028 would continue the path of growth and margin expansion that we're delivering today.
