Aaron Levie: Enterprise Advanced also continues to capture a price premium of 30% to 40% over Enterprise Plus, demonstrating the recognized value we are bringing to customers. Overall, this quarter continues to prove our unique value to Box customers as they migrate their infrastructure and applications toward an agentic future. Box is increasingly being deployed as the platform for enterprises to securely manage their unstructured data for AI agents and as a platform for automating their critical enterprise workflows. Some examples of our Enterprise Advanced wins in the quarter included a lending and financial services solutions provider upgraded from Enterprise Plus to Enterprise Advanced to centralize and organize the trust and estate related documents within Box and leverage Box AI to extract key metadata from unstructured legal documents.

Representing a new logo win in EMEA, a European manufacturing company adopted Enterprise Advanced to securely manage and share critical documents, streamline collaboration between global teams and partners, and reduce friction in complex workflows. That means faster decision making, improved operational efficiency, and a stronger foundation for innovation. Box will help them move away from fragmented systems toward a more unified, secure content layer, giving them better visibility, governance, and control over their information. Over the past quarter, I've had the distinct pleasure of being able to personally connect with well over 100 enterprises in various industries and geographies.

Speaker #2: What every single one of them have in common is they want the ability to leverage AI to accelerate their product execution, be able to better serve customers, find new market opportunities, produce better campaigns, drive operational efficiency, and more.

Aaron Levie: What every single one of them have in common is they want the ability to leverage AI to accelerate their product execution, be able to better serve customers, find new market opportunities, produce better campaigns, drive operational efficiency, and more. In these conversations, one of the biggest challenges that comes up is that enterprises need the ability to securely connect AI agents to their most important enterprise context, most of which rests in unstructured data. This unstructured data contains the most valuable information for agents to work with, whether it's key contracts, research materials, HR policies, marketing assets, product roadmap decisions, financial documents, or anything else in the organization. Getting agents to be able to successfully work with this information, process it at scale, and be able to connect to it securely remains one of the biggest challenges for any AI strategy in an organization.

Speaker #2: Getting agents to be able to successfully work with this information, process it at scale, and be able to connect to it securely remains one of the biggest challenges for any AI strategy in an organization.

Speaker #2: Decades of legacy, fragmented, or on-premises content management infrastructure are holding organizations back from being able to truly get the full value from AI. This is where Box comes in, and what we are building with our intelligent content management platform.

Aaron Levie: Decades of legacy, fragmented, or on-premises content management infrastructure is holding organizations back from being able to truly get the full value from AI. This is where Box comes in, and what we are building with our intelligent content management platform. In a world where there are hundreds of times more agents than people in an enterprise, the importance of getting the right information to agents becomes paramount. Agents need to be securely enabled, tied to a business process, grounded in enterprise information, governed properly, and more. We are building the company and platform that can help our customers transform how they work with their enterprise content in the era of agents. As the role of unstructured data grows in importance due to AI agents, our opportunity and TAM does as well.

Aaron Levie: In Q1, we had another quarter of great execution on our product roadmap, delivering both the new Box Agent and Box Automate. The Box Agent acts as a unified AI engine across Box, leveraging the latest advanced reasoning models and Box's agentic harness to securely search company files, analyze and synthesize critical data, and generate new content, all while respecting Box's enterprise-grade security governance and permission controls. You can use the Box Agent to transform company content into expertise that any employee can interact with, use the Box Agent to process large amounts of documents, whether it be for an M&A data room or large set of contracts, and generate new content from existing corpus of information, like responding to RFPs or generating sales presentations on the fly.

Next up in Q1, we announced the general availability of Box Automate, our new workflow automation solution that dynamically routes work across people, Box AI agents, and enterprise systems, with end-to-end automation to replace fragmented workflows and unlock enterprise productivity at scale.

Aaron Levie: Next up in Q1, we announced the general availability of Box Automate, our new workflow automation solution that dynamically routes work across people, Box AI agents, and enterprise systems with end-to-end automation to replace fragmented workflows and unlock enterprise productivity at scale. Customers can deploy custom Box agents across any workflow to create new content-driven processes that completely reimagine how work gets done, powering use cases like client onboarding, contract intelligence, brand asset approvals, life sciences R&D workflows, and more. This is one of our biggest releases yet and is a core part of the Enterprise Advanced story. Additionally, we expanded MCP app support in the Box MCP server and Box CLI for agents and developers to leverage. We also strengthened important technology partners and continued to expand our ecosystem, including work with NVIDIA NeMo, Claude, and OpenAI, and Box AI agents in ServiceNow AI Agent Fabric.

Providing customers with choice across AI models remains a critical part of our differentiation and value proposition so customers can ensure they can take advantage of any leading AI model with their content. Now, in Q2 this year and beyond, we are continuing to invest in our innovation that helps organizations accelerate knowledge work, unlock intelligence from content, and transform workflows with AI agents. We are expanding the capabilities of Box Agents to support more sophisticated and longer-running tasks, richer content creation, and greater customization. We are also advancing Box Extract with major improvements designed to simplify extraction template creation, enable more advanced use cases with better evaluation capabilities, and more.

Next, our long-term focus on security and governance remains a major focus for us. As organizations deploy both Box Agents and external agents from systems like Claude Cowork or OpenAI's Codex that interact with Box content, protecting access to information becomes incredibly important. As agents become the largest user of software and data in an enterprise, organizations need robust ways of ensuring agents are only accessing the right data they need to work with. Any risk of malicious use of data or rogue agents must be detected and prevented.

Speaker #2: As agents become the largest users of software and data in an enterprise, organizations need robust ways of ensuring agents are only accessing the right data they need to work with.

Speaker #2: And any risk of malicious use of data or rogue agents must be detected and prevented. We are building on our leadership position in content security with more granular access controls to help enterprises govern how external agents interact with content, safeguards around sensitive data, and improved visibility into potentially concerning agent activity.

Aaron Levie: We are building on our leadership position in content security with more granular access controls to help enterprises govern how external agents interact with content, safeguards around sensitive data, and improve visibility into potentially concerning agent activity. We are also building on our agent guardrails so we can ensure that enterprises can limit how agents use their organization's content. Finally, given the growing increase in headless software experiences where AI agents interact with enterprise applications and data through APIs rather than traditional user interfaces, we are investing in a best-in-class developer experience so developers and agents can use Box effectively as a file system for AI. This includes faster onboarding, better insights, improved SDKs, new MCP capabilities, and broader support for agentic development. We are also continuing to deepen our partnerships and integrations with leading agent development platforms, including the OpenAI Agents SDK, Claude Agents SDK, LangChain, and many others.

Aaron Levie: To do this, we're working to ensure that Box is going to market with the leading frontier AI labs, system integrators, and hyperscalers. For instance, in AWS's official announcement on bringing on OpenAI as a model partner, Box was named as a partner with both organizations for agentic document workflows. In the recent Claude for Legal Solutions announcement, Box was one of the key partners highlighted for management of enterprise content across the solution, which built on our previous inclusion in the Claude for Financial Services launch. The system integrator ecosystem also remains a core focus of ours. In Q1, we continued to gain momentum in our partner-led wins with Enterprise Advanced. Working with our partner, Versatile, we expanded our relationship with a major EMEA-based automotive, engineering, and industrials conglomerate that upgraded from Business Plus to Enterprise Advanced and added seats.

Dylan Smith: Thanks, Aaron. Good afternoon, everyone. Q1 was a very strong start to the year, highlighted by record Q1 bookings. We delivered our fourth consecutive quarter of accelerating revenue growth, achieved a double-digit growth rate for the first time since fiscal 2023, exceeded our guidance across all metrics. We have made significant progress against the financial strategy we outlined in March at our Financial Analyst Day, accelerating revenue growth, driving continued Enterprise Advanced momentum, and reducing total shares outstanding by executing our disciplined capital allocation strategy. Q1 revenue of $306 million was up 11% year over year, up 10% in constant currency. Customers paying us at least $100,000 annually grew 11% year over year.

We ended Q1 with remaining performance obligations, or RPO, of $1.6 billion, a 12% year-over-year increase, or 16% in constant currency. Short-term RPO was up 8% year-over-year and up 12% in constant currency. We expect to recognize roughly 55% of our RPO over the next 12 months. Q1 billings of $255 million were up 5% year-over-year, or 13% in constant currency. This result exceeded our expectations of low double-digit growth despite absorbing an FX headwind that was 260 basis points greater than our prior expectations. This outperformance was driven primarily by strong Q1 bookings, fueled by continued momentum from customers upgrading to Enterprise Advanced. Our net retention rate in Q1 was 105%, above our guidance of 104%, and up from 102% in the year-ago period. Our annualized full churn rate remained at 3%.

Dylan Smith: We now expect our net retention rate to be 105% exiting FY27. We delivered Q1 gross margin of 81.5%, up 100 basis points from the year-ago period. Operating income of $85 million resulted in operating margin expansion of 240 basis points from the year-ago period to 27.7%, or 28.1% in constant currency. This was above our guidance of 27.5%. In Q1, we delivered EPS of $0.37, which was above our guidance of $0.36. Turning to our cash flow and balance sheet. In Q1, we generated record free cash flow of $128 million and cash flow from operations of $140 million, up 8% and 10% year-over-year respectively. We ended Q1 with $479 million in cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments. In March, we announced a $500 million expansion of our share repurchase program. We repurchased 4.8 million shares in Q1 for approximately $114 million.

With that, let me now turn to our Q2 and updated FY27 guidance. For the Q2 of fiscal 2027, we expect Q2 revenue to be approximately $319 million, representing approximately 9% year-over-year growth, or 10% growth in constant currency. This includes an expected headwind of approximately 170 basis points from FX. We anticipate our Q2 billings growth to land in the low double digits, which includes an expected tailwind from FX of approximately 140 basis points. We expect Q2 gross margin to be in the range of 81% to 81.5%. We anticipate our Q2 operating margin to be approximately 28.5%, which includes an expected headwind from FX of 100 basis points.

This includes an expected FX headwind of approximately 90 basis points, 30 basis points higher than our prior expectations. Adjusting for currency movements, this represents an increase of approximately $8.5 million versus our prior guidance. We expect our FY27 billings growth to be roughly in line with revenue growth. This includes an expected headwind of approximately 150 basis points from FX, 50 basis points higher than our prior expectations. We expect FY27 gross margin to be in the range of 81% to 81.5%.

This represents an increase of approximately $0.06 when normalizing for currency movements versus our previous expectations. Weighted average diluted shares are expected to be approximately 139 million, a reduction of 2 million shares versus our prior expectations. Our return to double-digit revenue growth, underpinned by Enterprise Advanced momentum and an improving net retention rate, reflects the growing demand we are seeing in the market for our AI-powered solutions. In Q1, we continued to build on our strong market position, launching powerful new capabilities such as our Box Agent and Box Automate. At the same time, our go-to-market investments are translating into increased partner-led deal momentum and encouraging early traction with Box Solutions.

Speaker #2: With that, Aaron and I will be happy to take your questions. Operator, at this time, if you would like to ask a question, please press star, then the number one on your telephone keypad.

Speaker #2: To withdraw your question, simply press star one again. We will pause for just a moment to compile the Q&A roster. Your first question comes from the line of Steve Enders with Citi.

Operator: We will pause for just a moment to compile the Q&A roster. Your first question comes from the line of Steven Enders with Citi. Please go ahead.

Speaker #2: Please go ahead.

Speaker #1: Okay, great. Thanks for taking the questions this afternoon. I guess maybe just to start on what you're actually seeing from Agentic AI adoption within your customers and, I guess, as you kind of look at the more sophisticated customers that you have, just kind of where are we in terms of their adoption curve and how that's translating to how that's changing, I guess, their usage of Box moving forward as a result of that?

Steven Enders: Okay, great. Thanks for taking the questions this afternoon. I guess maybe just to start on what you're actually seeing from agentic AI adoption within your customers, and as you look at the more sophisticated customers that you have, just where are we in terms of their adoption curve and how that's changing their usage of Box moving forward as a result of that?

Speaker #2: Yeah, so I think we're still relatively early in the journey on what we would probably consider to be more advanced agents working with enterprise content.

Aaron Levie: Yeah. I think we're still relatively early in the journey on what we would probably consider to be more advanced agents working with enterprise content. I think the really exciting thing is how much upside that remains ahead of us. Some of the biggest use cases that we're seeing so far are things like our document extraction agent, has absolutely become a killer app for us within enterprises that have large amounts of contracts or invoices or financial documents. We're seeing a lot of momentum on our data extraction efforts. Our Box Automate product that just launched at the tail end of Q1 is going to be another mechanism for deploying agents that can do much more advanced work on enterprise content workflows.

Speaker #2: So I think the really exciting thing is how much upside that remains ahead of us. Some of the biggest use cases that we're seeing so far are things like our document extraction agent has absolutely kind of become a killer app for us within enterprises that have large amounts of contracts or invoices or financial documents.

Speaker #2: So we're seeing a lot of momentum on our data extraction efforts. Our Box Automate product that just launched in Q1 at the tail end of Q1 is going to be another kind of mechanism for deploying agents that can do much more advanced work on enterprise content workflows.

Speaker #2: So, things like client onboarding, or RFP workflows, or brand asset detection—anything where you want to be able to, in an automatic process, have an agent go and review information, generate new content, extract metadata.

Aaron Levie: Things like client onboarding or RFP workflows or brand asset detection, anything where you want to be able to, in an automatic process, have an agent go and review information, generate new content, extract metadata. Those are some of the big use cases. I think right now it's mostly showing up within the Enterprise Advanced revenue momentum that we're seeing. That's really driving a lot of the accelerated growth that we're seeing. Layered on top of that, we're certainly seeing more platform usage and utilization. Box's APIs will be leveraged more across agents that are outside of Box. Customers leveraging the Box APIs for agentic work they're doing within Claude or within OpenAI, and other platforms. As well as our AI unit monetization, which is now starting to ramp up.

Speaker #2: So those are some of the kind of big use cases. I think right now it's mostly showing up within the enterprise, advanced revenue momentum that we're seeing.

Speaker #2: So that's really driving a lot of the accelerated growth that we're seeing. And then, layered on top of that, we're certainly seeing more platform usage and utilization.

Speaker #2: So Box's APIs will be leveraged more across agents that are outside of Box. So customers leveraging the Box APIs for agentic work they're doing within Claude or within OpenAI, and other platforms.

Speaker #2: And then, as well as our AI unit monetization, which is now starting to ramp up. Still, again, the early phases, but seeing good momentum with a lot of the heavy workload use cases, like Box Extract, that drives pretty heavy AI unit consumption from customers.

Aaron Levie: Still again, the early phases, but seeing good momentum with a lot of the heavy workload use cases like Box Extract, that drives pretty heavy AI unit consumption from customers.

Speaker #1: Okay, that's helpful context, and great to hear. And maybe on just the guide—I mean, it looks like a pretty healthy raise on a constant currency basis.

Steven Enders: Okay. That's helpful context and great to hear. Maybe on just the guide, it looks like a pretty healthy raise on a constant currency basis. I want to get a better understanding for maybe what's changed in some of the underlying assumptions. How much of this is based off of what you've already booked and seen coming through in Q1 versus maybe something that's still on the come later this year in terms of what you're seeing in the pipeline?

Speaker #1: I guess I just want to get a better understanding for, I guess, maybe what's kind of changed in some of the underlying assumptions? How much of this is based off of what you've already booked and seen come through in Q1 versus maybe something that's still kind of on the come later this year, in terms of what you're seeing in the pipeline?

Speaker #2: Yeah, so definitely pleased with the underlying momentum that we're seeing in the business. And really, what's driving the majority of the increase in our expectations is on the come, but in areas that we have pretty good visibility into.

Dylan Smith: Yeah, definitely pleased with the underlying momentum that we're seeing in the business, and really what's driving the majority of the increase in our expectations is on the come, but in areas that we have pretty good visibility into. Now that we see the continued impact and momentum of Enterprise Advanced in particular, certainly a portion of that increase you can see did already occur in the Q1 timeframe, and so we flowed that through. The magnitude of the beat, especially when factoring in the FX adjustments, so that $8.5 million increase to our expectations for this year's revenue outcome, is really about just the continued pipeline build and momentum that we're seeing in the business that we're again, really, really pleased by.

Speaker #2: Now that we see the continued impact and momentum of Enterprise Advanced, in particular, certainly a portion of that increase, you can see, did already occur in the Q1 timeframe.

Speaker #2: And so we flowed that through. But the magnitude of the beat, especially when factoring in the FX adjustments—so that $8.5 million increase to our expectations for this year's revenue outcome—is really about just the continued pipeline build and momentum that we're seeing in the business, that we're, again, really, really pleased by.

Speaker #1: Okay, perfect. Thanks for taking the questions.

Steven Enders: Okay, perfect. Thanks for taking the questions.

Speaker #2: Thank you.

Aaron Levie: Thank you.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Matt Bullock with Bank of America. Please go ahead.

Aaron Levie: Your next question comes from the line of Matt Bullock with Bank of America. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Matt Bullock with Bank of America. Please go ahead.

Speaker #1: Oh, hi. Great. Thanks for taking the questions. I wanted to ask about net revenue retention. Obviously, that continues to track very well, ahead of expectations.

Matt Bullock: Oh, hi. Great. Thanks for taking the questions. I wanted to ask about net revenue retention. Obviously, that continues to track very well, ahead of expectations. Maybe, Dylan, if you could just unpack the incremental drivers of that upside. You also mentioned the EA net revenue retention is also tracking above the corporate average. I would love if you could speak a little bit more about the drivers of that as well.

Speaker #1: Maybe, Dylan, if you could just unpack the incremental drivers of that upside. And then you also mentioned the EA net revenue retention is also tracking above the corporate average.

Speaker #1: And would love if you could speak a little bit more about the drivers of that as well.

Speaker #2: Sure. So I would say, actually, that the overall net retention rate—there's the business driver, which actually is directly related to the second part of the question, which is just very healthy momentum and an adoption of Enterprise Advanced.

Dylan Smith: Sure. Would say actually that the overall net retention rate, there's the business driver, which actually is directly related to the second part of the question, which is just very healthy momentum and adoption of Enterprise Advanced. That's what's driving, from a mix standpoint, the increase that we've been seeing in net retention rate. If you think of the components of what drives that net retention rate, we've seen an increase both on the seats and on the pricing side of that expansion. Really what's moved most recently, and has been the case for the past two, three quarters, is around seat expansion. That's just going a click deeper, what's really been driving that. Again, much of that is being driven by Enterprise Advanced.

Speaker #2: So that's what's driving, from a mixed standpoint, the increase that we've been seeing in net retention rate. And then, if you think of the components of what drives that net retention rate, we've seen an increase both on the seats and on the pricing side of that expansion. But really, what's moved most recently—and has been the case for the past two to three quarters—is around seat expansion.

Speaker #2: So that's just going a click deeper—what's really been driving that. But again, much of that is being driven by Enterprise Advanced. And as that becomes a larger portion of the business, and the customer expansion— that rate that's a little bit higher than the overall average—is what's bringing up the blended net retention rate to that 105% as well.

Dylan Smith: As that becomes a larger portion of the business and the customer expansion, that rate that's a little bit higher than the overall average is what's bringing up the blended net retention rate to that 105% as well.

Speaker #1: Very helpful. And then, if I could sneak one follow-up, that'd be fantastic. Dylan, maybe if you could just unpack the changes to the constant currency margin guidance for the full year.

Matt Bullock: Very helpful. Then if I could sneak one follow-up, that'd be fantastic. Dylan, maybe if you could just unpack the changes to the constant currency margin guidance for the full year. Anything specifically driving the change?

Speaker #1: Anything specifically driving the change?

Speaker #2: So for operating margin?

Dylan Smith: For operating margin?

Speaker #1: For operating margin.

Matt Bullock: For operating margin.

Speaker #2: Yeah, so really, we maintained our operating margin expectations of 28% on an as-reported basis. But on a constant currency basis, it's up about 20 basis points.

Dylan Smith: Yeah. We maintained on an as-reported basis, maintained our operating margin expectations of 28%, but on a constant currency basis, up about 20 basis points. Absorbing and offsetting that FX headwind because the efficiencies that we're driving. There's no single item that is driving that increase, really just continuing to drive efficiencies across the business. As we continue to see that healthy top-line growth, that's certainly helpful as well. Just really a continuation of a lot of the kind of leverage points and overall operating discipline that we've been driving across the business.

Speaker #2: So, absorbing and offsetting that FX headwind because of the efficiencies that we're driving. And there's no single item that is driving that increase—really just continuing to drive efficiencies across the business. And as we continue to see that healthy top-line growth, that's certainly helpful as well.

Speaker #2: So just really a continuation of a lot of the kind of leverage points and overall operating discipline that we've been driving across the business.

Speaker #1: Wonderful. Thank you.

Matt Bullock: Wonderful. Thank you.

Speaker #2: Thank you.

Dylan Smith: Thank you.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Taylor McGuinness with UBS. Please go ahead.

Dylan Smith: Your next question comes from the line of Taylor McGinnis with UBS. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Taylor McGinnis with UBS. Please go ahead.

Speaker #4: Yeah. Hi, team. Thanks so much for taking my questions. Aaron, maybe first one for you. So, you talked about a lot of AI innovation that you guys are bringing to market in your prepared remarks.

Taylor McGinnis: Hi, team. Thanks so much for taking my questions. Aaron, maybe first one for you. You talked about a lot of AI innovation that you guys are bringing to market in your prepared remarks. When we think about the growth levers outside of SKU upgrades to advance, any thoughts on when AI credits and MCP access could be more needle moving to numbers or Box spend? I guess part of the question is just with the broader hiring environment still being fairly muted, curious how your conversations with customers are going on Box spend potential near term, if you are seeing some signs of weaker seat expansion, but if Box is offsetting that potentially with some of this mix shift to usage.

Speaker #4: So when we think about the growth levers outside of SKU upgrades to Advance, any thoughts on when AI credits and MCP access could be more needle-moving to numbers or Box spend?

Speaker #4: I guess part of the question is just, with the broader hiring environment still being fairly muted, I'm curious how your conversations with customers are going on Box spend potential near term—if you're starting, if you are seeing some signs of weaker seat expansion, but if Box is offsetting that potentially with some of this makeshift to usage.

Speaker #2: Yeah. Great question. I mean, first of all, we, I think in the core seat part of the business, trends remain strong—both the upgrade to Enterprise Advanced and overall kind of seat just health.

Aaron Levie: Yeah. Great question. First of all, I think in the core seat part of the business, trends remain strong, both the upgrade to Enterprise Advanced and overall seat health. I think some of the broader narrative is sort of not something that is reflected within our customer base and within what we're seeing in the business model. I'd call that out first as just a very positive trend we're seeing on the pure Enterprise Advanced side. As we've talked about, there's sort of two additional growth levers beyond the pure seat and price per seat dynamic with Enterprise Advanced. There's the growth of AI units, which are really the consumption pool of AI tokens that our customers are leveraging across our native agents.

Speaker #2: And so I think some of the broader narrative is sort of not something that is reflected within our customer base and within what we're seeing in the business model.

Speaker #2: So I'd kind of call that out first as just a very positive trend we're seeing on the pure Enterprise Advanced side. And then, as we've talked about, there are sort of two additional growth levers beyond the pure seat and price per seat dynamic with Enterprise Advanced.

Speaker #2: There's the growth of AI units, which are really the consumption pool of AI tokens that our customers are leveraging across our native agents. And then there's API monetization that increasingly will happen as agents are deployed external to Box.

Aaron Levie: Then there's API monetization that increasingly will happen as agents are deployed external to Box that take advantage of content and documents in Box beyond whatever the seat allocation is provisioned for. Both of those metrics are growing nicely. Sometimes we decide to monetize when a customer has some burst capacity, and we go in and ensure that they're sort of right-sized for their deployment. Then at other times, at the appropriate renewal moment, customers will buy into more API calls or they'll buy into more AI units. Some of that will lag some of the usage, and some of that will come at the moment that the usage is happening, depending on what we're doing with that customer.

Speaker #2: That take advantage of content and documents in Box beyond whatever the kind of seat allocation is provisioned for. And both of those metrics are growing nicely.

Speaker #2: And sometimes we decide to monetize when a customer has some burst capacity, and we go in and ensure that they're kind of, sort of, sort of right-sized for their deployment.

Speaker #2: And then at other times, we'll, at the kind of appropriate renewal moment, see customers buy into more API calls, or they'll buy into more AI units.

Speaker #2: So, some of that will lag. Some of the usage, and some of that will come at the moment that the usage is happening, depending on what we're doing with that customer.

Speaker #2: But overall, both of those metrics are already driving kind of top-line revenue. And I think that will continue to kind of provide a nice, healthy component of the revenue over the near, medium, and long run.

Aaron Levie: Overall, both of those metrics are already driving top-line revenue, and I think that will continue to provide a nice healthy component of the revenue over the near, medium, and long run. I think we're firing on all cylinders from a monetization standpoint right now with, again, very clear vectors of upside as you get more of the consumption model that we're commercializing.

Speaker #2: But I think we're firing on all cylinders from a monetization standpoint right now, with, again, kind of very clear vectors of upside as you get more of the consumption model that we're commercializing.

Speaker #4: Awesome. Thanks, Aaron. And then Dylan, one for you. Could you comment on the billings outperformance in Q1? It was really strong, and it looks like the guide assumes a continued low double-digit constant currency growth in the first half.

Taylor McGinnis: Awesome. Thanks, Aaron. Then Dylan, one for you. Could you comment on the billings outperformance in Q1? It was really strong, and it looks like the guide assumes like a continued low double-digit constant currency growth in H1. When I look at the guide for H2, if I ran my math right, it looks like it implies something closer to high single digits. Any shift, I guess, in renewals from H2 into H1 or anything to keep in mind there, or is this just a function of prudence as we move throughout the year?

Speaker #4: So when I look at the guide for the second half, if I ran my math right, it looks like it implies something closer to high single digits.

Speaker #4: So, any shift, I guess, in renewals from the second half into the first half or anything to keep in mind there? Or is this just a function of prudence as we move throughout the year?

Speaker #2: Sure. So I would say that on the Q1 outperformance was really just driven by a lot of the underlying strength and bookings momentum that we saw in the business.

Dylan Smith: Sure. Would say that the Q1 outperformance was really just driven by a lot of the underlying strength and bookings momentum that we saw in the business. Nothing unusual in terms of early renewals or payment durations or any of those types of factors. That was really responsible for the upside. You're right that the H1 billings expectations for that growth rate versus H2. H1's a little bit higher, but they are pretty close to each other. We are expecting to see the momentum that we are seeing continue, if not pick up. That delta is really just a function of comparing largely actuals and the near-term expectations to the back half. Really just being prudent as we always want to make sure that we're setting expectations that we're confident in meeting or exceeding.

Speaker #2: Nothing unusual in terms of early renewals, payment durations, or any of those types of factors. So that was really responsible for the upside.

Speaker #2: And you're right that the H1 billings expectations for that growth rate versus H2—H1 is a little bit higher, but they are pretty close to each other.

Speaker #2: So we are expecting to see the momentum that we are seeing continue, if not pick up. And that delta is really just a function of comparing largely actuals and the near-term expectations to the back half.

Speaker #2: So really, just being prudent, as we always want to make sure that we're setting expectations that we're confident in meeting or exceeding.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Lucky Schreiner with D.A. Davidson. Please go ahead.

Speaker #2: Great, thanks for taking my questions. Maybe a quick follow-up on some of the agent and AI questions that have been asked. I'm curious how customers are maybe balancing their AI budgets as they scale their AI usage and the consumption pricing.

Lucky Schreiner: Great. Thanks for taking my questions. Maybe a quick follow-up on some of the agent and AI questions that have been asked. Curious how customers are maybe balancing their AI budgets, as they scale their AI usage and the consumption pricing, have you seen any instances of maybe token optimization and enterprises trying to introduce better cost controls? Maybe in general, how would you characterize the urgency in customer conversations today with regards to ramping AI adoption and trying to maximize productivity?

Speaker #2: Have you seen any instances of maybe token optimization and enterprises trying to introduce better cost controls? And maybe in general, how would you characterize the urgency in customer conversations today with regards to ramping AI adoption and trying to maximize productivity?

Speaker #5: Yeah, so maybe in reverse. I think the urgency is quite high for the overall execution of agentic strategies within enterprises right now. I mean, I'm in just a tremendous amount of customer conversations at the moment, and every week I'm talking to probably half a dozen to a dozen customers, depending on the week and if we're hosting events. The trends are unbelievably consistent across industry, across geography, across size of business, which is: everybody has seen the amazing capabilities of things like coding agents kind of take off within their engineering organizations.

Aaron Levie: Maybe in reverse. I think the urgency is quite high for the overall execution of agentic strategies within enterprises right now. I'm in just a tremendous amount of customer conversations at the moment, and every week talking to probably half a dozen to a dozen customers, depending on the week and if we're hosting events, and the trends are unbelievably consistent across industry, across geography, across sides of business, which is everybody has seen the amazing capabilities of things like coding agents kind of take off within their engineering organizations. Most companies have either deployed or are in the midst of deploying some kind of chat agent strategy. Now the big kind of open area is, okay, well, how do I get the gains of these kind of coding agents, but in the rest of knowledge work?

Speaker #5: Most companies have either deployed or are in the midst of deploying some kind of chat agent strategy. And so now the big, kind of open area is, okay, well, how do I get the gains of these kind of coding agents, but in the rest of knowledge work?

Speaker #5: How do I accelerate the productivity of my sales organization, or of my finance team, or of the legal organization for client onboarding and contract review processes, or research and development in life sciences or manufacturing?

Aaron Levie: How do I accelerate the productivity of my sales organization or of my finance team or of the legal organization for client onboarding and contract review processes or research and development in life sciences or manufacturing? In all of those areas, everybody kind of wants those same gains of the coding agents, but they’re quickly met with this challenge of, well, to get those gains, you need to have your actual workflows and your data look a lot closer to how engineers have always worked, which is your data’s in the same place, you have access to it all in an efficient way. You have the right kind of tooling to get your agents access to that information.

Speaker #5: And so, in all of those areas, everybody kind of wants those same gains of the coding agents, but they're quickly met with this challenge of, well, to get those gains, you need to have your actual workflows and your data look a lot closer to how engineers have always worked, which is: your data is in the same place.

Speaker #5: You have access to it all in an efficient way. You have the right kind of tooling to get your agents access to that information.

Speaker #5: And all of those kinds of challenges kind of show up pretty quickly because a customer says, "I want to get these gains with AI, but my data is in some legacy on-premises system."

Aaron Levie: All of those kinds of challenges kind of show up pretty quickly because a customer says, "I want to get these gains with AI, but my data's in some legacy on-premises system. I can't easily connect it to agents. My provider doesn't have an MCP support. My data's fragmented across a variety of systems, so I don't have the right access controls for people or agents to get access to that information." That's kind of the contour of the conversation right now, which is why we're in so many conversations, again, across industry and across size of company, because everybody's realizing they have to go ahead and solve that problem, if they're going to deploy agents at scale in their organization. We're having an unbelievable amount of customer conversations. This is why we're on the road with our Content + AI summits. BoxWorks coming up this fall.

Speaker #5: I can't easily connect it to agents. My provider doesn't have MCP support. My data is fragmented across a variety of systems, so I don't have the right access controls for people or agents to get access to that information. So that's kind of the contour of the conversation right now, which is why we're in so many conversations, again, across industry and across size of company, because everybody's realizing they have to go and solve that problem if they're going to deploy agents at scale in their organization.

Speaker #5: So, we're having an unbelievable amount of customer conversations. This is why we're on the road with our Content AI Summits—Boxverse coming up this fall.

Speaker #5: We just had our Content AI Virtual Summit last week, with major product announcements. So demand is strong. Pipeline is building. The conversations are fantastic.

Aaron Levie: We just had our Content + AI virtual summit last week, with major product announcements. Demand is strong, pipeline is building, the conversations are fantastic. The momentum is absolutely building there. Customers do realize they have to go in through this journey, and there is change management, there is new technology they have to deploy, and that is going to take them some amount of time, which puts us in a great position because they're going to need partners to help them bridge from all of these amazing AI innovations that they're seeing in the market to being able to actually deploy this in their own environment. That's the second part of your question. On the first part on tokenomics and overall kind of token budgeting dynamics, this is also a major theme.

Speaker #5: And so the momentum is absolutely building there. But customers do realize they have to go through this journey, and there is change management.

Speaker #5: There is new technology they have to deploy, and that is going to take them some amount of time, which puts us in a great position because they are going to need partners to help them bridge from all of these amazing AI innovations that they're seeing in the market to being able to actually deploy this in their own environment.

Speaker #5: So that's the second part of your question. And on the first part, on tokenomics and overall kind of token budgeting dynamics, this is also a major theme.

Speaker #5: So, every dinner we host with CIOs—and we do this every one to two weeks, pretty much, somewhere in the country—the token budgeting conversation has absolutely taken over as one of the most important topics for CIOs.

Aaron Levie: Every dinner we host with CIOs, and we do this every 1 to 2 weeks, pretty much somewhere in the country. The token budgeting conversation has absolutely taken over as one of the most important topics for CIOs. There's a variety of factors kind of at play right now. One thing that we strategically have as an advantage is you're going to see the value of having a neutral layer that you have between your data and the ultimate AI consumption, because what you want to be able to do is swap in and out of different model providers or different harnesses or different agents, based on whatever the type of performance gains you're getting based on the different cost profile you have of your workload.

Speaker #5: And there's a variety of factors kind of at play right now. But one thing that we strategically have as an advantage is you're going to see the value of having a neutral layer that you have between your data and the ultimate AI consumption, because what you want to be able to do is swap in and out of different model providers or different harnesses or different agents based on whatever the type of performance gains you're getting, based on the different cost profile you have of your workload.

Speaker #5: So you don't want to have your data kind of stuck with one vendor that's going to sort of try and keep your workloads going down a particular path.

Aaron Levie: You don't want to have your data kind of stuck with one vendor that's going to sort of try and keep your workloads going down a particular path. You want to be able to have some flexibility of which agents can you use, which models do you choose based on the workload. That puts our layer of the stack in effectively a premium position for the customer, because what happens is we can go in, and this is where we're seeing with our relationships with customers. We can go in and say, Okay, we can actually lower your cost on document extraction by choosing a different AI model that will get you the same amount of performance, but at a lower cost. That's something that's incredibly attractive to them. Lo and behold, that's dramatically more revenue than we were getting from that same customer before.

Speaker #5: You want to be able to have some flexibility of which agents you can use. Which models do you choose based on the workload? So that puts our layer of the stack in effectively a premium position for the customer, because what happens is we can go in—and this is what we're seeing with our relationships with customers.

Speaker #5: We can go in and say, "Okay, we can actually lower your cost on document extraction by choosing a different AI model that will get you the same amount of performance but at a lower cost." And that's something that's incredibly attractive to them.

Speaker #5: And lo and behold, that's dramatically more revenue than we were getting from that same customer before. So it's all revenue upside for us. But we then play a strategic role for that customer because we can route their workloads to different AI models based on their use case.

Aaron Levie: It's all revenue upside for us, we play a strategic role for that customer because we can route their workloads to different AI models based on their use case. That's going to be the value of the AI model neutral layer in the enterprise. It's also the importance of having your own AI harness, where we can route those workloads depending on, again, what the right price quality mix is. I think as token budgeting becomes a bigger topic, you're going to see more value accrue to the layer that can really swap out models for different workloads, based on what the customer is trying to solve. We think that's a great position to be.

Speaker #5: And so that's going to be the value of the neutral, sort of, AI model-neutral layer in the enterprise. It's also the importance of having your own AI harness, where we can route those workloads depending on, again, what the right sort of price-quality mix is.

Speaker #5: And so, I think as token budgeting becomes a bigger topic, you're going to see more value accrue to the layer that can really kind of swap out models for different workloads based on what the customer is trying to solve.

Speaker #5: So we think that’s a great position to be in.

Speaker #1: That's great to hear. Maybe a quick question for Dylan as well. Last quarter, you called out strength in the commercial segment. Did that continue this quarter?

Lucky Schreiner: That's great to hear. Maybe a quick question for Dylan as well. Last quarter, you called out strength in the commercial segment. Did that continue this quarter? Any nuances between commercial and enterprise adoption and potential impacts to linearity in this quarter?

Speaker #1: Are there any nuances between commercial and enterprise adoption and potential impacts to linearity in this quarter?

Speaker #3: No. So we saw pretty consistent trends and healthy execution and demand in most of the markets that we operate in globally, and that holds true for continued strength and consistently strong performance in the commercial business.

Dylan Smith: No. We saw pretty consistent trends and healthy execution and demand, in most of the markets that we operate in, globally. That holds true for continued strength and consistent, strong performance in the commercial business really globally as well. That's been one of the bright spots and drivers of some of the green shoots we're seeing in EMEA. Our US commercial business and our Japan commercial business are also both humming pretty nicely right now.

Speaker #3: Really, globally as well. So that's been one of the bright spots, and drivers of some of the green shoots we're seeing in EMEA. But then our US commercial business and our Japan commercial business are also both humming pretty nicely right now.

Speaker #1: Great. Appreciate you taking my questions.

Lucky Schreiner: Great. Appreciate you taking my questions.

Lucky Schreiner: Your next question comes from the line of Josh Baer with Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Josh Baer with Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead.

Speaker #2: Your next question comes from the line of Josh Baer with Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead.

Speaker #4: Thanks for the question, and congrats on the double-digit growth. Wanted to ask sort of a follow-up on different layers that you play in, and really, is it important to win the UI?

Josh Baer: Thanks for the question and congrats on the double-digit growth. Wanted to ask sort of a follow-up on the different layers that you play in. Really, is it important to win the UI? I'm wondering, just given enterprises using ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, all the agentic front ends, is it important to defend Box's position there? Understanding the role that Box can still play around governing, accessing, and securing the underlying content, but just curious on your thoughts there around positioning and value capture for the UI layer.

Speaker #4: And wondering, just given enterprises using ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, all the agentic front ends, is it important to defend Box's position there? Understanding the role that Box can still play around governing and accessing security and the underlying content, but just curious on your thoughts there around positioning and value capture.

Speaker #4: For the UI layer?

Speaker #3: Yeah, yeah. So, I mean, we've talked about and shared this a little bit over the past couple of quarters. We emphatically—and I can't underscore this more—we emphatically are both agnostic and endorse every possible use case of content at the agent and application layer above us.

Aaron Levie: Yeah. We've talked about and shared this a little bit over the past couple of quarters. We emphatically, and I can't underscore this more, we emphatically are both agnostic and endorse every possible use case of content at the agent and application layer above us. This has been core in our ethos, really since the first few, honestly, weeks of launching Box. We very quickly realized one of the biggest value propositions we would have, and one of the biggest differentiators, was you could store your content in one place but access it from anywhere. We were integrating with external service providers within truly the first couple of months of launching the business. That has been just in our DNA since day one.

Speaker #3: This has been core in our ethos really since the first few, honestly, weeks of launching Box. We very quickly realized one of the biggest value propositions we would have, and one of the biggest differentiators, was you could store your content in one place but access it from anywhere.

Speaker #3: And so we were integrating with external service providers within, truly, the first couple of months of launching the business. And that has been just in our DNA since day one.

Speaker #3: So agents, to us, represent a force multiplier of that value proposition, because what you're going to do is you're going to have all these new endpoints where people want to be able to go and send off a task to an agent. You go to Claude Cowork and you say, "Hey, can you go and summarize the past 50 contracts that I've signed?" Or you go to ChatGPT and you build an agent that has all of your sales materials and you say, "Can you answer this question about this customer that I'm in front of?" Every single one of those are going to be agentic workflows where our APIs will be consumed most likely an order of magnitude or more than what people ever did with their data.

Aaron Levie: Agents to us represent a force multiplier of that value proposition, because what you're going to do is you're going to have all these new endpoints where people want to be able to go and send off a task to an agent. You go to Claude Cowork and you say, Hey, can you go and summarize the past 50 contracts that I've signed? Or you go to ChatGPT, and you build an agent that has all of your sales materials, and you say, Can you answer this question about this customer that I'm in front of? Every single one of those are going to be agentic workflows where our APIs will be consumed, most likely an order of magnitude or more than what people ever did with their data.

Speaker #3: And so the importance of that is that actually then having a system that can securely manage that information, govern who has access to it, get auditability of what agents have done with every single step along the way—of what that agent ended up seeing, what files they looked at, what context retrieval they executed—being able to log and report and govern and retain any of those kind of critical actions, actually that value is going to go up in an enterprise as you have agents doing way more with our content than people.

Aaron Levie: The importance of that is that actually then having a system that can securely manage that information, govern who has access to it, get auditability of what agents have done with every single step along the way of what that agent ended up seeing, what files they looked at, what context retrieval they executed, being able to log and report and govern and retain any of those kind of critical actions. That actually, that value is going to go up in an enterprise as you have agents doing way more with our content than people. I would actually argue that we don't want to fight for the UI layer. We want to fight for the best possible level of integrations and APIs across all of those agentic systems.

Speaker #3: So I would actually argue that we don't want to fight for the UI layer. We want to fight for the best possible level of integrations and APIs across all of those agentic systems.

Speaker #3: And then the UI gets used as much as knowledge workers want to be able to go and directly interact with their content or interact with the Box agent.

Aaron Levie: Then the UI gets used as much as knowledge workers want to be able to go and directly interact with their content or interact with the Box Agent. We feel very comfortable that these are highly complementary interactions. The usage of Box across every surface that we can think of is only going up, even in a world of agents, because the more you have agents doing things with your content, the more you're also going to need to go and look at the content directly within Box or go and collaborate on it with other people. None of this is at all in kind of contention for that usage pattern. We want all the endpoints to grow.

Speaker #3: But we feel very comfortable that these are highly complementary interactions. The usage of Box across every surface that we can think of is only going up, even in a world of agents, because the more you have agents doing things with your content, the more you're also going to need to go and look at the content directly within Box or go and collaborate on it with other people.

Speaker #3: So none of this is at all in kind of contention for that usage pattern. So we want all the endpoints to grow.

Speaker #4: Very clear. Thanks, Aaron.

Josh Baer: Very clear. Thanks, Aaron.

Speaker #2: Your next question comes from the line of Brian Peterson with Raymond James. Please go ahead.

Josh Baer: Your next question comes from the line of Brian Peterson with Raymond James. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Brian Peterson with Raymond James. Please go ahead.

Speaker #5: Thanks, and congrats on the strong quarter. I'll keep it to one question. So given the strength that you're seeing in the pipeline—double-digit growth—are there any thoughts of leaning in a little bit more aggressively, either on the go-to-market or the product side?

Brian Peterson: Thanks, congrats on the strong quarter. I'll keep it to one. Given the strength that you're seeing in the pipeline, double-digit growth, are there any thoughts of leaning in a little bit more aggressively, either in the go-to-market or the product side? How are you guys thinking about incremental M&A opportunities? Thanks, guys.

Speaker #5: And how are you guys thinking about incremental M&A opportunities? Thanks, guys.

Speaker #3: Yeah, so we’re honestly incredibly excited about the growth prospects right now. And we do spend a decent amount of time figuring out, as we have overperformance in the business, what things we should be doubling down in, where are we seeing investment areas that we believe would have near- and medium-term kind of return profiles.

Aaron Levie: Yeah. We're honestly incredibly excited about the growth prospects right now, and we do spend a decent amount of time figuring out as we have over-performance in the business, what things we should be doubling down in, where are we seeing investment areas that we believe would have near and medium term kind of return profiles. I would say already that is sort of happening within the budgeting process, as you're seeing these results play out. Maybe to point to some areas that we're really focused on, as I mentioned, our vertical strategy, is taking on a lot of focus right now because the way that you're going to translate AI to most enterprises through some vertical lens. AI, at the end of the day, the customer is really kind of, bringing in an external service effectively as software.

Speaker #3: So I would say already that is sort of happening within the budgeting process, as you're seeing these results play out. Maybe to point to some areas that we're really focused on—as I mentioned, our vertical strategy is taking on a lot of focus right now, because the way that you're going to translate AI to most enterprises is through some vertical lens. AI, at the end of the day, the customer is really kind of bringing in an external service effectively as software.

Speaker #3: And the way that you've always procured services is through some form of an industry orientation, because you want that service provider to understand your business.

Aaron Levie: The way that you've always procured services is through some form of an industry orientation because you want that service provider to understand your business. The way that AI will get used in life sciences will be different than financial services, which will be different yet again than legal or media and entertainment or many other industries. Verticalization of the go-to-market efforts is increasing, and that's something we're investing in. We're certainly investing across the system integrator and kind of hyperscaler ecosystems. We see a lot of upside in how we work with partners. We were quite excited by the AWS announcement with OpenAI.

Speaker #3: And so, the way that AI will get used in life sciences will be different than financial services, which will be different yet again than legal or media and entertainment, or many other industries.

Speaker #3: So, verticalization of the go-to-market efforts is increasing, and that's something we're investing in. We're certainly investing across the system integrator and kind of hyperscaler ecosystems.

Speaker #3: We see a lot of upside in how we work with partners. We were quite excited by the AWS announcement with OpenAI. We obviously have a lot of customers that leverage Box with the OpenAI models.

Aaron Levie: We obviously have a lot of customers that leverage Box with the OpenAI models, and giving them choice of being able to deploy those on Bedrock, and have that route through the Box platform or connect to agents that the customer has deployed on Bedrock is another kind of growth vector for us, and we can now co-sell with Amazon through the AWS Marketplace. We think that's going to be some meaningful upside over the, again, kind of medium and long run. We're definitely doubling down on key go-to-market areas. In R&D, we do think that there's some efficiency as we continue to scale up, but we are making sure that we are staffing the R&D efforts appropriately for the kind of roadmap we are delivering, which is an expanded roadmap and delivering far more innovation to our customers.

Speaker #3: And giving them the choice of being able to deploy those on Bedrock and have that route through the Box platform or connect to agents that the customer has deployed on Bedrock is another kind of growth vector for us.

Speaker #3: And we can now co-sell with Amazon through the AWS Marketplace. So we think that's going to be some meaningful upside over the, again, kind of medium and long run.

Speaker #3: So we're definitely doubling down on key go-to-market areas. And in R&D, we do think that there's some efficiency as we continue to scale up.

Speaker #3: But we are making sure that we are staffing the R&D efforts appropriately for the kind of roadmap we are delivering, which is an expanded roadmap and delivering far more innovation to our customers.

Speaker #3: So, but I'd say that go-to-market, incrementally, is getting more of the investment just given the nature of how customer-centric we have to be right now with deploying AI in these environments.

Aaron Levie: I'd say that go-to-market incrementally is getting more of the investment just given the nature of how customer-centric we have to be right now with deploying AI in these environments.

Speaker #5: Thanks, Aaron.
