Daniel Dines: Thank you, Allise. Good afternoon, everyone. Thanks for joining us. We delivered a strong start to fiscal 2027, once again exceeding our guidance across all key financial metrics. Before I dive into the results, I want to take a moment to reflect on our progress over the last year. In May of last year, we launched our agenting and business process orchestration products into general availability. One year in, adoption has moved from early experimentation to production deployment. We are seeing this play out across three areas in particular: install base expansion, process orchestration adoption, and vertical AI workflows. A great example is one of the largest healthcare distribution companies in the US. One end-to-end workflow combining UiPath agents and deterministic automations is expected to drive multimillion-dollar annual savings, which led to a seven-figure expansion in the quarter.

Speaker #3: Before I dive into the results, I want to take a moment to reflect on our progress over the last year. In May of last year, we launched our agenda and business process orchestration products into general availability.

Speaker #3: One year in, adoption has moved from early experimentation to production deployment. We are seeing this play out across three areas in particular: install-based expansion, process orchestration adoption, and vertical AI workflows.

Speaker #3: A great example is one of the largest healthcare distribution companies in the US. One end-to-end workflow, combining UiPath agents and deterministic automations, is expected to drive multimillion-dollar annual savings.

Speaker #3: which led to a seven-figure expansion in the quarter. One of the world's largest construction companies adopted our purchase-to-pay vertical solution and told us they chose UiPath.

Daniel Dines: One of the world's largest construction companies adopted our Purchase-to-Pay vertical solution and told us they chose UiPath, not as a software vendor, but as a strategic co-development partner for their enterprise AI transformation. The Fortune 500 energy company placed UiPath at the center of a $70 million cost reduction initiative, made possible by our ability to bring deterministic agentic and process orchestration together as a single glass. Turning to the quarter. Q1 ARR reached $1.901 billion, up 12% year over year, driven by $49 million of net new ARR and revenue of $418 million, up 17% year over year. We grew Q1 non-GAAP operating income to $92 million, a 22% margin driven by improved operational efficiency and disciplined execution across the business. We delivered Q1 GAAP profitability for the first time in company history.

Speaker #3: Not as a software vendor, but as a strategic co-development partner for their enterprise AI transformation. And the Fortune 500 energy company placed UiPath at the center of a $70 million cost reduction initiative.

Speaker #3: Made possible by our ability to bring deterministic agending and process orchestration together as a single platform. Turning to the quarter, first quarter ARR reached 1.901 billion dollars, up 12% year over year.

Speaker #3: Driven by 49 million dollars of net new ARR and revenue of 418 million dollars, up 17% year over year. We grew first quarter non-gap operating income to 92 million dollars, a 22% margin, driven by improved operational efficiency and discipline execution across the business.

Speaker #3: And we delivered first quarter gap profitability for the first time in company history. This quarter's performance is built on the strength of our enterprise automation install base.

Daniel Dines: This quarter's performance is built on the strength of our enterprise automation install base. Thousands of customers with deep platform adoption, proven ROI, and a track record of expanding with us over time. It reflects continued momentum with our AI products. In the quarter, 16 out of top 20 deals included AI, and expansion deals that included AI were six times larger than those that did not. The drivers behind these results are the same core differentiators we outlined last quarter. Our platform that brings together deterministic and agentic automation with enterprise grade process orchestration. Our install base flywheel, our governance foundation, and our ability to combine a horizontal automation platform with deep vertical solutions. I saw that momentum firsthand across our global events, including in India at our annual Fusion event and DevCon developer conference. Across customers, developers, and partners, the message was consistent.

Speaker #3: Thousands of customers with deep platform adoption proven ROI and a track record of expanding with us over time. And it reflects continued momentum with our AI products.

Speaker #3: In the quarter, 16 out of top 20 deals included AI and expansion deals that included AI were six times larger than those that did not.

Speaker #3: The drivers behind these results are the same core differentiators we outlined last quarter: our platform that brings together deterministic and agentic automation with enterprise-grade process orchestration.

Speaker #3: Our install-based flywheel, our governance foundation, and our ability to combine a horizontal automation platform with deep vertical solutions. I saw that momentum firsthand across our global events.

Speaker #3: Including in India, at our annual Fusion event and DevCon developer conference. Across customers, developers, and partners, the message was consistent: enterprises increasingly need a platform that can govern and orchestrate humans, agents, workflows, automations, and systems.

Daniel Dines: Enterprises increasingly need a platform that can govern and orchestrate humans, agents, workflows, automations, and systems. An area where UiPath has a structural advantage. At DevCon, we launched UiPath for coding agents, enabling developers to connect their coding agent of choice to create, test, deploy, and manage automations across the full life cycle on the UiPath platform with enterprise-grade governance and reliability built in. This matters because nearly every customer conversation surfaces the same constraint, an automation backlog that outpaces their capacity to build and maintain. Implementation is often the hardest part, particularly in complex enterprise environments where upstream system changes can drive maintenance costs over time. By combining coding agents with the governance, orchestration, and self-healing capabilities built into our platform, we can dramatically reduce that operational burden and compress deployment timelines from quarters to weeks.

Speaker #3: Where upstream system changes can drive maintenance costs over time. By combining coding agents with the governance, orchestration, and self-healing capabilities built into our platform, we can dramatically reduce that operational burden and compress deployment timelines from quarters to weeks.

Speaker #3: We expect this to accelerate time-to-value for our customers, drive deeper adoption, and strengthen long-term retention across our customer base. Our internal teams and customers are also seeing great results with coding agents.

Daniel Dines: We expect this to accelerate time to value for our customers, drive deeper adoption, and strengthen long-term retention across our customer base. Our internal teams and customers are also seeing great results with coding agents, including one of the world's largest consumer electronics companies, which reduced a 4-week project build to 3 hours, and one of the world's largest chip manufacturers reduced a 2-month project build to a few days. What stood out most this quarter is how clearly customer priorities have evolved with the focus consistently centered on process orchestration. As one customer put it during DevCon, "Models are easy. Orchestration is not." That directly reflects what we hear across our customer base. Customers are no longer asking us simply to deploy more agents or generate more code.

Speaker #3: Including one of the world’s largest consumer electronics companies, which reduced a four-week project build to three hours, and one of the world’s largest chip manufacturers, which reduced a two-month project build to a few days.

Speaker #3: What stood out most this quarter is how clearly customer priorities have evolved, with the focus consistently centered on process orchestration. As one customer put it during DevCon, 'Models are easy; orchestration is not.'

Speaker #3: That directly reflects what we hear across our customer base. Customers are no longer asking us simply to deploy more agents or generate more code.

Speaker #3: They are asking us to transform how entire business functions operate through end-to-end workflows that span departments, connect systems, and deliver measurable operational outcomes. And delivering that kind of transformation requires more than individual AI agents.

Daniel Dines: They are asking us to transform how entire business functions operate through end-to-end workflows that span departments, connect systems, and deliver measurable operational outcomes. Delivering that kind of transformation requires more than individual AI agents. It requires a platform that can orchestrate agents, automations, APIs, systems, and people together within secure governed enterprise workflows. A great example is one of the world's largest telecommunications companies. With nearly 2,000 processes already automated and over $30 million in annual cost savings, they are now expanding their deterministic base further and moving into agentic workflows, building a pipeline of more than 200 additional deterministic automations and over 20 agentic use cases. That same process orchestration capability also drove a competitive displacement with the Fortune Global 500 electronics manufacturer, where we were the only platform that could take them from task-based automation to enterprise-wide business process orchestration.

Speaker #3: It requires a platform that can orchestrate agents, automations, APIs, systems, and people together within secure, governed enterprise workflows. A great example is one of the world's largest telecommunications companies.

Speaker #3: With nearly 2,000 processes already automated and over $30 million in annual cost savings, they are now expanding their deterministic base further and moving into agentic workflows.

Speaker #3: We were the only platform that could take them from task-based automation to enterprise-wide business process orchestration. Building on a strong deterministic foundation, they are now expanding across manufacturing and supply chain workflows, using Maestro to coordinate automations, agents, systems, and human decisioning globally.

Daniel Dines: Building on a strong deterministic foundation, they are now expanding across manufacturing and supply chain workflows using Maestro to coordinate automations, agent systems, and human decisioning globally. Maestro already excels at structured workflows like invoice approvals and deployment pipelines, where the process itself is clearly defined. Increasingly, enterprise work is non-linear, and it's dynamic, exception-driven, and centered around decisions that move across teams and systems. This is why at DevCon, we launched Maestro Case into public preview, extending Maestro beyond traditional process orchestration into the orchestration of unstructured enterprise work. The breadth is what makes UiPath the most complete process orchestration and automation platform in the market, and it's already driving broader customer adoption, including Sonic Automotive, an early adopter of our agentic products. They initially deployed UiPath to automate vehicle stocking and sales lift follow-up.

Speaker #3: Maestro already excels at structured workflows like invoice approvals and deployment pipelines, where the process itself is clearly defined. But increasingly, enterprise work is non-linear, and its dynamic exception-driven and centered around decisions that move across teams and systems.

Speaker #3: This is why at DevCon, we launched Maestro Case into public preview, extending Maestro beyond traditional process orchestration into the orchestration of unstructured enterprise work.

Speaker #3: The breadth is what makes UiPath the most complete process orchestration and automation platform in the market. And it's already driving broader customer adoption including Sonic Automotive, an early adopter of our agentic products.

Speaker #3: They initially deployed UiPath to automate vehicle stocking and safely follow-up. They are now standardizing their agentic automation strategy on the UiPath platform under a broader C-suite initiative and expanding into workflows such as month-end close and employee onboarding.

Daniel Dines: They are now standardizing their agentic automation strategy on the UiPath platform under a broader C-suite initiative and expanding into workflows such month-end close and employee onboarding. The key driver of the expansion was Maestro Case's ability to orchestrate complex multi-stage workflows across agents, automations, and people. Beyond process orchestration, documents remain one of the biggest sources of friction in enterprise work, and customers are increasingly turning to UiPath IXP to automate document-intensive workflows at enterprise scale. In May, we were named a leader in the Forrester Wave, Document Mining And Analytics Platforms, Q2 2026. We are seeing that momentum translate directly into larger enterprise deployments and competitive wins. A great example is the leading medical technology company that is standardizing on UiPath IXP to automate high-volume unstructured documents like invoices and purchase orders.

Speaker #3: A great example is the leading medical technology company that is standardizing on UiPath IXP to automate high-volume unstructured documents like invoices and purchase orders.

Speaker #3: The customer is already realizing approximately 5 million dollars in annual savings, and expects that to grow to 10 million dollars as they scale. Demand for industry-specific governed workflows continues to grow as enterprises increasingly adopt purpose-built AI solutions tailored to their business.

Daniel Dines: The customer is already realizing approximately $5 million in annual savings and expects that to grow to $10 million as they scale. Demand for industry-specific governed workflows continues to grow as enterprises increasingly adopt purpose-built AI solutions tailored to their business. What differentiates UiPath is our ability to combine those deep domain-specific solutions with the same process orchestration, automations, and governance platform. This quarter, we expanded our portfolio across financial services, retail, and manufacturing, and the office of the CFO. We are already seeing momentum in healthcare in a seven-figure new logo win. A leading Latin American healthcare provider selected our vertical solutions to support revenue cycle management, medical record summarization, and claim denial management, and expect $12 million in cumulative benefits. Customers are also realizing meaningful operational benefits from these vertical solutions. A leading healthcare technology company reduced clinical summary review times by 90% using our medical record summarization solution.

Speaker #3: Customers are also realizing meaningful operational benefits from these vertical solutions. A leading healthcare technology company reduced clinical summary review times by 90% using our medical record summarization solution.

Speaker #3: We are seeing similar momentum in financial services, a regional ban is now automating 61% of sanctions hit reviews with our transaction screening alert review solution processing roughly 14,000 alerts per month.

Daniel Dines: We are seeing similar momentum in financial services. A regional bank is now automating 61% of sanctions hit reviews with our transaction screening alert review solution, processing roughly 14,000 alerts per month. AI is accelerating software creation, but is also accelerating the need to validate it. As code volume grows, so does the testing burden. Independent research firms have consistently recognized UiPath as a leader in this space, and we believe that validation reflects a real and growing structural advantage. Test Cloud is at the center of that, helping customers move testing from a downstream bottleneck to a continuous intelligent function embedded across the delivery life cycle. One example this quarter is a leading US utility provider that adopted UiPath Test Cloud for agentic testing to streamline a customer platform support launch. The solution is expected to significantly reduce manual testing while generating nearly $3 million in savings.

Speaker #3: AI is accelerating software creation, but is also accelerating the need to validate it. As code volume grows, so does the testing burden. Independent research firms have consistently recognized UiPath as a leader in this space, and we believe that validation reflects a real and growing structural appendage.

Speaker #3: TestCloud is at the center of that, helping customers move testing from a downstream bottleneck to a continuous, intelligent function embedded across the delivery lifecycle.

Speaker #3: One example this quarter is a leading US utility provider that adopted UiPath TestCloud for agentic testing to streamline customer platform support launch. The solution is expected to significantly reduce manual testing while generating nearly $3 million in savings.

Speaker #3: During the quarter, we continued to deepen our partnerships across both go-to-market and technical integrations. This included our expanded collaborations with Deloitte, embedding UiPath TestCloud into their Assembly Delivery Platform and bringing agentic testing capabilities to Deloitte's global client base.

Daniel Dines: During the quarter, we continued to deepen our partnerships across both go-to-market and technical integrations. This included our expanded collaborations with Deloitte, embedding UiPath Test Cloud into their Ascend delivery platform, bringing agentic testing capabilities to Deloitte's global client base. We are seeing similar momentum with Accenture. A life sciences customer we highlighted last quarter worked with Accenture to deploy a global agentic sales entry solution and has now scaled this across 70 countries. Building on that success, they signed a seven-figure expansion and are now partnering with us to design an office of the CIO intake solution built on our process orchestration platform. On the technical side, we continue to broaden our reach across key enterprise ecosystems. With Microsoft, we integrated UiPath with their security test suite to help automate threat detection and response.

Speaker #3: We are seeing similar momentum with Accenture, a life sciences customer. We highlighted last quarter work with Accenture to deploy a global agentic sales entry solution, which has now scaled across 70 countries.

Speaker #3: On the technical side, we continue to broaden our reach across key enterprise ecosystems. With Microsoft, we integrated UiPath with their security test suite to help automate threat detection and response with Salesforce.

Daniel Dines: With Salesforce, we launched a new agent exchange offering that extend Maestro process orchestration across Salesforce and back-office systems. With Google Cloud, we brought our IXP solution to their marketplace. With Databricks, we connected their data intelligence platform directly with UiPath process orchestration to help enterprises move from data insights to automated action within governed workflows. In summary, this quarter reflected disciplined execution across the business, continued AI adoption, and growing momentum across our platform. No other vendor can bring together deterministic automation, agentic AI, document intelligence, and business process orchestration on a single platform. That completeness is what customers are standardizing on. We believe we are uniquely positioned for this next phase of enterprise AI adoption, and our strong start to fiscal 2027 reinforces both the durability of our business and the scale of the opportunity ahead.

Speaker #3: Before I turn it over to Ashim, I want to take a moment to acknowledge the loss of our dear friend and board member, Soma Segar.

Daniel Dines: Before I turn it over to Ashim, I want to take a moment to acknowledge the loss of our dear friend and board member, S. Somasegar. Soma was a longtime investor in UiPath, and he joined our board just eight months ago. His impact on UiPath was immediate and profound. He was a mentor, trusted advisor, and someone I deeply admired, both professionally and personally. I will miss him greatly, and I know our entire board and leadership team share that feeling. Our hearts are with his family. With that, I'll turn the call over to Ashim.

Speaker #3: Soma was a longtime investor in UiPath and rejoined our board just eight months ago. His impact on UiPath was immediate and profound. He was a mentor, trusted advisor, and someone I deeply admire both professionally and personally.

Speaker #3: I will miss him greatly, and I know our entire board and leadership team shared that feeling. Our hearts are with his family. With that, I'll turn the call over to Ashim.

Speaker #2: Thank you, Daniel, and good afternoon, everyone. Before turning to the financials, I'd like to provide a quick operational update. We continue to make meaningful progress across the key priorities we outlined last year.

Ashim Gupta: Thank you, Daniel. Good afternoon, everyone. Before turning to the financials, I'd like to provide a quick operational update. We continue to make meaningful progress across the key priorities we outlined last year. Our partner ecosystem is becoming more deeply integrated with both our go-to-market motion and customer adoption efforts, helping us scale larger enterprise deployments across industries. As Daniel mentioned, partners like Deloitte and Accenture are increasingly instrumental, not just in selling, but in helping customers operationalize and scale AI-driven workflows. We are seeing that play out across financial services, healthcare, and other key verticals. At the same time, our internal focus on customer adoption remains a central operating priority. We continue to invest in our services organization and industry expertise to help customers accelerate deployment and expand platform usage.

Speaker #2: As Daniel mentioned, partners like Deloitte and Accenture are increasingly instrumental not just in selling, but in helping customers operationalize and scale AI-driven workflows. And we are seeing that play out across financial services, healthcare, and other key verticals.

Speaker #2: At the same time, our internal focus on customer adoption remains a central operating priority. We continue to invest in our services organization and industry expertise, to help customers accelerate deployment and expand platform usage.

Speaker #2: A key part of that effort is our forward-deployed engineering program, which we launched six months ago. FTEs are proving to be an effective bridge between product innovation and customer deployment.

Ashim Gupta: A key part of that effort is our forward deployed engineer program, which we launched six months ago. FDEs are proving to be an effective bridge between product innovation and customer deployment, shaping vertical workflows directly in customer environments and accelerating time to value. In addition to adoption, our go-to-market teams are executing with discipline and customer centricity. AI is now part of virtually every strategic customer conversation, and those discussions are increasingly expanded into platform, orchestration, and vertical solutions. The deal data Daniel mentioned reflects that. AI was included in 16 of our top 20 deals, and expansion deals that include AI were six times larger than those that did not. Finally, on operational efficiency, AI is changing how we run the business internally. We are seeing increased operating leverage across the organization, while continuing to invest deliberately in R&D, vertical solutions, and customer-facing functions.

Speaker #2: Turning to the quarter, unless otherwise indicated, I will be discussing results on a non-GAAP basis, and all growth rates are year over year. I also want to note that since we price and sell in local currency, fluctuations in FX rates impact results.

Ashim Gupta: Turning to the quarter, unless otherwise indicated, I will be discussing results on a non-GAAP basis, and all growth rates are year over year. I also want to note that since we price and sell in local currency, fluctuations in FX rates impact results. Since the time of our last earnings call through the end of Q1, rates remained largely stable and resulted in an incremental tailwind to our Q1 ARR and revenue results of less than $1 million. Q1 revenue grew to $418 million, an increase of 17%. Normalizing for the year over year FX tailwind of approximately $7 million, revenue grew 15%. ARR totaled $1.901 billion, an increase of 11%. This included a $9 million year over year FX tailwind. Net new ARR was $49 million.

Speaker #2: Since the time of our last earnings call through the end of the first quarter, rates remain largely stable and resulted in an incremental tailwind to our first quarter ARR and revenue results of less than $1 million.

Speaker #2: First quarter revenue grew to $418 million, an increase of 17%. Normalizing for the year-over-year FX tailwind of approximately $7 million, revenue grew 15%.

Speaker #2: ARR totaled $1.901 billion, an increase of 11%. This included a $9 million year-over-year FX tailwind. Net new ARR was $49 million. Normalized for foreign exchange and the impact of M&A, net new ARR improved on a year-over-year basis.

Ashim Gupta: Normalized for foreign exchange and the impact of M&A, net new ARR improved on a year over year basis. Our dollar-based gross retention rates remain best in class at 97%, and our dollar-based net retention rate was 109%, underscoring the durability of our customer base as they embrace our agentic automation solutions. Adjusting for FX, dollar-based net retention rate was 108%, demonstrating stabilization across our business. We ended the quarter with approximately 10,550 customers. Attrition continues to be concentrated amongst our smallest customers, while customers generating more than $30,000 in ARR grew 7% year over year. That dynamic is also reflected in our cohort performance. Customers with $100,000 or more in ARR increased 11% to 2,624, and customers with $1 million or more in ARR increased 18% to 374.

Speaker #2: Our customer strategy has continued to focus on deepening our presence within the world’s most complex enterprises, where we see the greatest opportunity for long-term expansion.

Ashim Gupta: Our customer strategy has continued to focus on deepening our presence within the world's most complex enterprises, where we see the greatest opportunity for long-term expansion. Consistent with that strategy, we continue to add new enterprise customers with significant long-term expansion potential, including new logos like Candela Medical, Tire Rack, ShopRite Holdings, and a global semiconductor company who is replacing a legacy RPA vendor with UiPath as their strategic automation platform. Our cross-system integration and end-to-end process orchestration capabilities give them the scalable foundation they need to migrate their existing automation program beyond task-based automation into broader agentic workflows. Remaining performance obligations increased to $1.413 billion, up 15%. Normalizing for the FX headwind, which was approximately $9 million, RPO grew 16%. Current RPO increased to $908 million, up 17%. Turning to expenses, we delivered Q1 overall gross margin of 83%, and software gross margin was 90%.

Speaker #2: Consistent with that strategy, we continue to add long-term expansion potential, including new logos like Candela Medical, Tyrack, ShopRite Holdings, and a global semiconductor company who is replacing a legacy RPA vendor with UiPath as their strategic automation platform.

Speaker #2: Our cross-system integration and end-to-end process orchestration capabilities give them a scalable foundation they need to migrate their existing automation program beyond task-based automation into broader agentic workflows.

Speaker #2: Remaining performance obligations increased to 1.413 billion up 15%. Normalizing for the FX headwind, which was approximately $9 million, RPO grew 16%. Current RPO increased to 908 million, up 17%.

Speaker #2: Turning to expenses, we delivered first-quarter overall gross margin of 83%, and software gross margin was 90%. First-quarter operating expenses were $256 million.

Ashim Gupta: Q1 operating expenses were $256 million. For the first time in company history, we delivered a GAAP profitable Q1, with GAAP operating income of $28 million, up from the prior year GAAP operating loss of $16 million. GAAP operating income included $53 million in stock-based compensation expenses. Q1 non-GAAP operating income was $92 million, representing a 22% margin, up over 250 basis points year over year, and driven by our continued focus on operational efficiency. Q1 non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow was $130 million. We ended the quarter with a healthy balance sheet of $1.4 billion in cash equivalents, and marketable securities and no debt. During Q1, we repurchased 20 million shares at an average price of $11.47. Since 30 April, under our 10b5-1 plan, we have repurchased an additional 2 million shares at an average price of $9.63 through 27 May 2026.

Speaker #2: For the first time in company history, we delivered a GAAP-profitable first quarter, with GAAP operating income of $28 million, up from the prior year GAAP operating loss of $16 million.

Speaker #2: Gap operating income included $53 million of stock-based compensation expenses. First quarter non-gap operating income was $92 million. Representing a 22% margin, up over $250 basis points year over year, and driven by our continued focus on operational efficiency.

Speaker #2: First quarter non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow was $130 million. We ended the quarter with a healthy balance sheet of $1.4 billion in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, and no debt.

Speaker #2: During the first quarter, we repurchased 20 million shares at an average price of $11.47. Since April 30th, under our 10b5-1 plan, we have repurchased an additional 2 million shares at an average price of $9.63 through May 27, 2026.

Speaker #2: Now, turning to guidance, we are pleased with the team's execution and will continue to operate in a variable macroeconomic environment. We continue to maintain a prudent outlook and guide to what we see in front of us.

Ashim Gupta: Now turning to guidance. We are pleased with the team's execution in what continues to be a variable macroeconomic environment. We continue to maintain a prudent outlook and guide to what we see in front of us. Since we provided guidance on our last call, the euro has remained largely stable, while other currencies such as INR and Romanian leu have experienced volatility. As a result, for Q2 and full year, we expect a nominal incremental FX headwind to ARR and revenue. Despite the incremental FX headwind, we are raising guidance for the progress we've made on our operating priorities. Turning to the specifics of our guide.

Speaker #2: Since we provided guidance on our last call, the euro has remained largely stable, while other currencies such as INR and Romanian lei have experienced volatility.

Speaker #2: As a result, for the second quarter and full year, we expect a nominal incremental FX headwind to ARR and revenue. Despite the incremental FX headwind, we are raising guidance for the progress we've made on our operating priorities.

Speaker #2: Turning to the specifics of our guide, for the second fiscal quarter 2027, we expect revenue in the range of $395 million to $400 million.

Ashim Gupta: For Q2 fiscal 2027, we expect revenue in the range of $395 million to $400 million, ARR in the range of $1.929 billion to $1.934 billion, non-GAAP operating income of approximately $75 million. We expect Q2 basic share count to be approximately 518 million shares. For the fiscal full year 2027, we expect revenue in the range of $1.776 billion to $1.781 billion. ARR in the range of $2.058 billion to $2.063 billion. Non-GAAP operating income of approximately $430 million. Finally, we continue to expect fiscal year 2027 non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow of approximately $425 million and non-GAAP gross margin of approximately 84%. Thank you for joining us today. We look forward to speaking to as many of you during the quarter. With that, I will now turn the call over to the operator. Operator, please poll for questions.

Speaker #2: ARR in the range of $1.929 billion to $1.934 billion. Non-GAAP operating income of approximately $75 million. And we expect second quarter basic share count to be approximately 518 million shares.

Speaker #2: For the fiscal full year 2027, we expect revenue in the range of 1.776 billion to 1.781 billion. ARR in the range of 2.058 billion to 2.063 billion.

Speaker #2: Non-GAAP operating income of approximately $430 million. And finally, we continue to expect fiscal year 2027 non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow of approximately $425 million, and non-GAAP gross margin of approximately 84%.

Speaker #2: Thank you for joining us today, and we look forward to speaking with many of you during the quarter. With that, I will now turn the call over to the operator.

Speaker #1: Please note that participants will be limited to one question and one follow-up. We will now pause briefly to assemble the queue. Our first question will come from Brian Bergen with TD Cowan.

Speaker #1: Your line is open. Please ask your question.

Speaker #3: Hey, guys. Good afternoon. Thank you. Maybe just to start on the overall demand environment, are there any interesting changes in the underlying demand trends and pipeline conversion—anything as it relates to deal timing, sales cycles, things like that—just as this conflict has been extended?

Bryan Bergin: Hey, guys. Good afternoon. Thank you. Ashim, maybe just to start on the overall demand environment, any interesting changes in the underlying demand trends and pipeline conversion? Anything as it relates to deal timing, sales cycles, things like that, just as this conflict has been extended?

Speaker #4: No, we actually feel like the environment has stayed relatively stable versus what we saw in the first quarter. Sorry—when we got into the first quarter earlier this year, Brian, I think we've actually felt very positive about the momentum in the business.

Ashim Gupta: No, we actually feel like the environment has stayed relatively stable versus what we saw in Q1. Sorry, when we got into Q1 earlier this year. Bryan, I think we actually feel very positive about the momentum in the business, the health of our pipeline, and the conversion rates and the predictability. The customer conversations are going really well. A lot of the pilots are beginning to now start to convert, which we feel really positive about. Overall, we're actually very positive overall on our pipeline. The environment remains variable, as it has been. It feels like a new normal, is the way we kind of think about it.

Speaker #4: The health of our pipeline and the conversion rates, and the predictability of the customer conversations, are going really well. A lot of the pilots are now beginning to convert, which we feel really positive about.

Speaker #4: So, overall, we're actually very positive on our pipeline. The environment remains variable, as it has been; it feels like a new normal.

Speaker #4: Is the way we kind of think about it.

Speaker #3: Okay. And then on ARI product ARR levels, any sizing you can update us there, and how the pricing conversation across those solutions is evolving?

Bryan Bergin: Okay, on AI product ARR levels, any sizing you can update us there, and how the pricing conversation across those solutions is evolving?

Speaker #4: Yeah, we'll disclose the product IRR periodically here. We feel really good about the momentum. I think we pointed to it in terms of 16 of the top 20 deals for the quarter.

Ashim Gupta: Yeah. We'll disclose the product ARR periodically here. We feel really good about the momentum. I think we pointed to it in terms of 16 of the top 20 deals for the quarter involved AI. I think agentic and our AI products in general just have really good, strong momentum. Our vertical solutions are also starting to really get traction, both from customer interest and pipeline, particularly in healthcare and financial services. Lastly, I think test, which is our agentic testing solutions, that has really good traction as well. We look forward to update the numbers here in the coming periods. Right now, we feel really good momentum, and I think the deal traction kind of speaks to the overall trajectory for the AI products.

Speaker #4: Involved AI, I think Agentic and our AI products in general just have really good, strong momentum. And our vertical solutions are also starting to really get traction, both from customer interest and pipeline.

Speaker #4: Particularly in healthcare and financial services. And then lastly, I think Test, which is our agentic testing solution, has really good traction as well.

Speaker #4: We look forward to updating the numbers here in the coming periods. But right now, we feel really good momentum, and I think the deal traction kind of speaks to the overall trajectory for the AI products.

Speaker #1: Your next question will come from Scott Berg with Needham. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question will come from Scott Berg with Needham. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #5: Hi, everyone. Nice quarter. Thanks for taking my questions. Daniel, you spoke extensively about orchestration, and it’s a key topic that comes up in our work on the space consistently over the last probably year or two.

Scott Berg: Hi, everyone. Nice quarter. Thanks for taking my questions. Daniel, you spoke extensively about orchestration, and it's a key topic that comes up in our work on the space consistently over the last probably year or two. When you think about UiPath Maestro and the deals that you have out there, is there any reason why UiPath Maestro isn't a part of basically every deal that has AI, or is there some combination that would suggest that that's not going to be a part of every deal going forward?

Speaker #5: When you think about Maestro and the deals that you have out there, is there any reason why Maestro isn't a part of basically every deal that has AI?

Speaker #5: Or is there some combination that would suggest that that's not going to be a part of every deal going forward?

Speaker #6: I don't think Maestro can be part of every deal. The way we are looking at our business, we have an entire platform that can address the whole spectrum of task and process orchestration.

Daniel Dines: I don't think Maestro can be part of every deal. The way we are looking at our business, we have an entire platform that can address the whole spectrum of task and process orchestration. Maestro is a solution that comes into play when customers are doing process orchestration and automation, and end-to-end process orchestration and automation. We have customers out there that are happy to start with a task automation product, and task automation can also be deterministic and cognitive. I would say that RPA and API automation plays into deterministic task automation while we have agents that can be applied to task level. Maestro comes into place when you need more complex orchestration of work that involves humans, task automations, enterprise workflows, systems, and agents. It's naturally more for our more evolved customers.

Speaker #6: Maestro is a solution that comes into play when customers are doing process orchestration and automation, and end-to-end process orchestration and automation. But we have customers out there that are happy to start with the task automation product.

Speaker #6: And task automation can also be deterministic and cognitive. I would say that RPA and API automation play into deterministic task automation, while we have agents that can be applied at the task level.

Speaker #6: Maestro comes into play when you need more complex orchestration of work that involves humans, task automations, enterprise workflows, systems, and agents. So, it's naturally more for our more evolved customers.

Daniel Dines: Maestro helps us landing bigger deals, makes our install base stickier to the customers, but I cannot say it can be deployed in every single deal.

Speaker #6: Maestro helps us land bigger deals and makes our install base stickier with customers. But I cannot say it can be deployed in every single deal.

Speaker #5: Got it, helpful. And then, Ashim, a follow-up to the last questions that were out there. I think what we're all trying to understand is the impact of, obviously, some of your AI modules on the business and the bookings, and what the general trajectory is.

Scott Berg: Got it. Helpful. Ashim, a follow-up to the last questions that were out there. I think what we're all trying to understand is the impact of, obviously, some of your AI modules on the business and the bookings and what the general trajectory is. I understand that you don't want to necessarily report that AI metric every quarter, if I ask a question a slightly different way is, if I think about those 16 deals in the top 20 that had an AI component of them. How significant of those transactions is coming from some of the AI functionality? I think what we're all trying to understand is it's still traditional RPA heavy in those transactions, or if we're seeing a bigger impact from some of the AI functionality.

Speaker #5: I understand that you don't want necessarily to report that AI metric every quarter, but if I ask a question a slightly different way is, if I think about those 16 deals in the top 20 that had an AI component of them, how significant of those transactions is coming from some of the AI functionality?

Scott Berg: How significant of those transactions is coming from some of the AI functionality? I think what we're all trying to understand is it's still traditional RPA heavy in those transactions, or if we're seeing a bigger impact from some of the AI functionality.

Speaker #5: I think what we're all trying to understand is, is it still traditional RPA-heavy in those transactions, or are we seeing a bigger impact from some of the AI functionality?

Speaker #4: No, we're seeing a bigger impact. I think the way I look at it is, I would kind of divide it into three areas. For our top customers and our top deals, the majority of our transactions have a significant AI component, if not a majority AI component.

Ashim Gupta: No, we're seeing a bigger impact. I think the way I look at it is, I would divide it into three areas. Our top customers and our top deals, the majority of our transactions have a significant AI, if not a majority AI component. Scott, that's driving it. They're not piecemeal where it's one or two SKUs that get moved in or small quantities. They are materially what we are selling to our customers. I think there is a mid-tier of customers where you see actually a continued demand in traditional RPA and deterministic automation. Those are companies that either have embraced agentic and AI in a major way, and they are actually pulling forward more deterministic automations, as they weigh both the cost and the trust in governance that agents versus deterministic automations give you.

Speaker #4: Scott, that's driving it. They're not piecemeal, where it's kind of like one or two SKUs that get moved in, or small quantities. They are materially what we are selling, right?

Speaker #4: To our customers, I think there is a mid-tier of customers where you see actually a continued demand in traditional RPA and deterministic automation. And those are companies that either have not embraced agentic and AI in a major way, and they are actually pulling forward more deterministic automations as they weigh both the cost and the trust and governance that agents versus deterministic automations give you.

Speaker #4: And then really the kind of some of the drag that we talked about is really from the low end of the market. Smaller customers and personal productivity.

Ashim Gupta: Really some of the drag that we talked about is really from the low end of the market, smaller customers and personal productivity. That's the way I would divide up the quarter. We are actually really pleased with the pull that we're getting on the agentic side and its contribution to our growth.

Speaker #4: That's kind of the way I would divide up the quarter. So, we are actually really pleased with the pull that we're getting on the agentic side and its contribution to our growth.

Speaker #1: Your next question will come from Sanjit Singh with Morgan Stanley. Your line is open. Please go ahead. Sanjit Singh with Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question will come from Sanjit Singh with Morgan Stanley. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Abhishek Marwaha: Hi

Abhishek Murli: Hi.

Operator: Sanjit Singh with Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead.

Operator: Please go ahead.

Abhishek Marwaha: This is Abhishek Marwaha for Sanjit Singh. Thanks for taking the question. I would love to hear a little more on the beat and kind of dig into, given Q1 revenue upside was strong. The beat was largely driven by licensed revenue. ARR was relatively in line. Can you help us understand the quality of that revenue beat? Was there anything unusual in license timing or customer behavior that we should be aware of? How should we think about the relationship between license performance and ARR trajectory for the rest of the year?

Abhishek Murli: This is Abhishek Murli on for Sanjit Singh. Thanks for taking the question. I would love to hear a little more on the beat and kind of dig into, given Q1 revenue upside was strong. The beat was largely driven by licensed revenue. ARR was relatively in line. Can you help us understand the quality of that revenue beat? Was there anything unusual in license timing or customer behavior that we should be aware of? How should we think about the relationship between license performance and ARR trajectory for the rest of the year?

Speaker #3: This is Abhishek Merlion for Sanjit Singh. Thanks for taking the question. Would love to hear a little more on the beat and kind of dig into given Q1 revenue upside was strong, but then the beat was largely driven by license revenue.

Speaker #3: And then ARR was relatively in line. So can you kind of help us understand the qualities that drove the revenue beat? Was there anything unusual in license timing or customer behavior that we should be aware of?

Speaker #3: And then how should we think about the relationship between license performance and ARR trajectory for the rest of the year?

Speaker #4: Yeah, I mean, I would say two things. One is, we feel really good about the quality of that revenue, both in terms of the products as well as the deal quality.

Ashim Gupta: Yeah, I would say two things. One is we feel really good about the quality of that revenue, both in terms of products as well as the deal quality and structures. I would say our quarters have been very clean, and we feel very good about the overall deal quality and construction. Remember, revenue is a quarterly performance metric when you're looking at the growth rates, and we are on ASC 606 versus ARR, which is a 12-month metric. If I break down the question, you look at revenue growth at 17%. When you look at a trailing 12-month period, the revenue growth rate is 15%. Actually, which makes me feel very good about 15% growth on a trailing 12-month basis. It's relatively in line with the ARR growth at 12%.

Speaker #4: And structurally, I would say our quarters have been very clean, and we feel very good about the overall deal quality and construction. Remember, revenue is a quarterly performance metric when you're looking at the growth rates.

Speaker #4: And we are on ASP 606 versus ARR, which is a 12-month metric, right? So if I break down the question, you look at revenue growth at 17%.

Speaker #4: When you look at a trailing 12-month period, the revenue growth rate is 15%. So actually, that makes me feel very good about 15% growth on a trailing 12-month basis.

Speaker #4: And it's relatively in line with the ARR growth at 12%. In terms of IARR beat versus revenue beat, it's really just the mix of deals with 606 timing.

Ashim Gupta: In terms of ARR beat versus revenue beat, it's really just a mix of deals with 606 timing, and the licensed revenue being a factor in that is a sign, actually, of really good quality revenue overall.

Speaker #4: And the license revenue being a factor in that is a sign, actually, of really good quality revenue overall.

Speaker #3: To be honest, thank you. And then, as a follow-up, is there anything you can share in terms of the mix you think between consumption-based revenue and per seat?

Abhishek Marwaha: Thank you. As a follow-up, anything you can share in terms of the mix between consumption-based revenue and per seat?

Abhishek Murli: Thank you. As a follow-up, anything you can share in terms of the mix between consumption-based revenue and per seat?

Speaker #4: We don't consumption-based revenue is a very small part of what we do. We still have subscription really dominates our pricing model. And per seat pricing as well, that is not the majority of what we do.

Ashim Gupta: Consumption-based revenue is a very small part of what we do. The subscription really dominates our pricing model. Per seat pricing as well, that is not the majority of what we do. We are really selling executions as well as our typical server-based pricing that we have for unattended robots in particular. I really emphasize again, personal productivity is a very small part of our portfolio. Simple task-based automation. What we sell is the larger, complex use cases now, and that really mixes higher towards both server-based and subscription-based pricing.

Speaker #4: We are really selling executions, as well as kind of our typical server-based pricing that we have for unintended robots in particular. I just really emphasize, again, personal productivity is a very small part of our portfolio, simple task-based automation.

Speaker #4: So what we sell is the larger, complex use cases now. And that really mixes higher towards both server-based and subscription-based pricing.

Speaker #1: Your next question will come from Sunika Merchant with RBC. Your line is open. Please ask your question.

Operator: Your next question will come from Sonika Merchant with RBC. Your line is open. Please ask your question.

Operator: Your next question will come from Sanika Merchant with RBC. Your line is open. Please ask your question.

Speaker #6: Hey, guys. This is Sunika Merchant on for Matt Hedberg from RBC. Thank you so much for taking the question. Could you talk a little bit about the broader competitive environment for orchestration, and any changes or trends you're seeing?

Sonika Merchant: Hey, guys. This is Sonika Merchant on for Matthew Hedberg from RBC. Thank you so much for taking the question. Could you talk a little bit about the broader competitive environment for orchestration and any changes or trends you're seeing? There've also been a lot of developments around frontier model capabilities. Could you talk to how you see these developments impacting the broader competitive landscape and the company specifically? Thanks.

Sanika Merchant: Hey, guys. This is Sanika Merchant on for Matt Hedberg from RBC. Thank you so much for taking the question. Could you talk a little bit about the broader competitive environment for orchestration and any changes or trends you're seeing? There've also been a lot of developments around frontier model capabilities. Could you talk to how you see these developments impacting the broader competitive landscape and the company specifically? Thanks.

Speaker #6: And there have also been a lot of developments around frontier model capabilities. Could you talk through how you see these developments impacting the broader competitive landscape and the company specifically?

Speaker #6: Thanks.

Speaker #5: Yeah, sure. I would like to start by saying that we have a really unique platform in the market, and it's based on three major pillars.

Daniel Dines: Yeah, sure. I would like to start by saying that we have a really unique platform in the market. It's based on three major pillars. We have a very modern process orchestration technology that is built on very innovative workflow engine capabilities. We have a proven of 10 years deployment of scales of automations in a secure and governed environment with some of the largest companies in the world. We have a unique ability to connect to both modern API-based systems and legacy systems. These three pillars make our platform quite unique in the market. In terms of the new developments that we are seeing, I think we all recognize the huge impact of the coding agents of the entire ecosystem. I want to point you to an interesting phenomenon that It's something that we spot with our customers and within our own UiPath operations.

Speaker #5: We have a very modern process orchestration technology that is built on highly innovative workflow engine capabilities. We have a proven 10-year deployment of automation at scale in secure and governed environments with some of the largest companies in the world.

Speaker #5: And we have a unique ability to connect to both modern API-based systems and legacy systems. These three pillars make our platform quite unique in the market.

Speaker #5: And in terms of the new developments that we are seeing, I think we all recognize the huge impact of the coding agents on the entire ecosystem.

Speaker #5: And I want to point to an interesting phenomenon that it's something that we spot with our customers and within our own UiPath operations. It's becoming increasingly easier to build deterministic automations.

Daniel Dines: It's becoming increasingly easier to build deterministic automations. You are using coding agents to build deterministic automations and deploy them at scale. It's becoming really easier to address the long tail of opportunities of work. It was not economically feasible before coding agents to get to this level of automations. Building automations, it's really creating the substrate for deploying agentic AI later on. I would point to why coding agents are so successful nowadays, because they really combine models, the strength of the models with the strength of deterministic automations. Claude Code, it's so good because there is this deterministic harness around it. Claude generates code, but then it uses a compiler, which is a deterministic piece of technology, to compile the code, and then it's using testing, which are another deterministic piece of code, to validate the code that is generated.

Speaker #5: You are using coding agents to build deterministic automations and deploy them at scale. It's becoming really easier to address the long tail of opportunities of work.

Speaker #5: And it was not economically feasible before coding agents to get to this level of automations. And building automations, it's really creating the substrate for deploying agentic AI later on.

Speaker #5: I would point to why coding agents are so successful nowadays because they really combine models, the strength of the models, with the strength of deterministic automations.

Speaker #5: Claude Code is so good because there is this deterministic hardness around it. So Claude generates code, but then it uses a compiler—which is a deterministic piece of technology—to compile the code.

Speaker #5: And then it's using testing, which is another deterministic piece of code to validate the code that is generated. So I think it's becoming more clear to everyone that the combination of deterministic automations and models is what makes the real deployments in production.

Daniel Dines: I think it's becoming more clear to everyone that the combination of deterministic automations and models are what makes the real deployments in production. I would say that in this regard, we do have tremendous advantage. Our platform is already enabled for coding agents, as we showed at our DevCon in India. We showed that we can reduce significantly the implementation times. Hey, think for a second, weeks to hours. That really means a lot when you go and deploy automations to the long tail of possible work.

Speaker #5: And I would say that, in this regard, we do have a tremendous advantage. Our platform is already enabled for coding agents, as we showed at our DevCon in India.

Speaker #5: We showed that we can significantly reduce the implementation times. Think for a second—weeks to hours. That really means a lot when you go and deploy automations to the long tail of possible work.

Sonika Merchant: Thanks, guys. Appreciate the color there. As a quick follow-up, you've talked a lot about sort of profitability and last quarter, you also updated your long-term non-GAAP operating margin target to 30%. Keeping in mind the fact that growth remains a priority for the company, what are some keys to margin expansion in fiscal year 2027? Is there any seasonality you would point out on that? Thanks.

Sanika Merchant: Thanks, guys. Appreciate the color there. As a quick follow-up, you've talked a lot about sort of profitability and last quarter, you also updated your long-term non-GAAP operating margin target to 30%. Keeping in mind the fact that growth remains a priority for the company, what are some keys to margin expansion in fiscal year 2027? Is there any seasonality you would point out on that? Thanks.

Speaker #6: Thanks, guys. Appreciate the color there. And as a quick follow-up, so you've talked a lot about profitability, and last quarter you also updated your long-term non-GAAP operating margin target to 30%.

Speaker #6: And keeping in mind the fact that growth remains a priority for the company, what are some keys to margin expansion in fiscal year '27?

Speaker #6: And is there any seasonality you would point out on that? Thanks.

Speaker #4: Look, I think from a cost seasonality standpoint, nothing except for, obviously, our later parts of the year—where we have sales compensation, which is just normal SaaS seasonality from an expense standpoint.

Ashim Gupta: Look, I think from a cost seasonality, nothing except for obviously our later parts of the year, we have sales compensation, which is just normal SaaS seasonality from an expense standpoint. Otherwise, I think there's no real seasonality to mention. From my standpoint, I think we're looking at growth as our first priority. We are investing in FDEs, we are investing in tests, we are investing in vertical solutions. We are investing in coding agents, as evidenced by the speed of the launch by which we're moving through things. From our standpoint, that investment is our first priority. At the same time, we updated our long-term models because we are able to find increasing levels of efficiency, both through continued discipline and scrutiny, and then also from implementing both our platform as well as broader AI tools within the company.

Speaker #4: Otherwise, I think we're pretty—there is no real seasonality to mention. From my standpoint, I think we're looking at growth as our first priority.

Speaker #4: So, we are investing in FTEs. We are investing in tests. We are investing in vertical solutions. We are investing in coding agents, as evidenced by the speed of the launch by which we're moving through things.

Speaker #4: And so, from our standpoint, that investment is our first priority. At the same time, we updated our long-term models because we are able to find increasing levels of efficiency, both through continued discipline and scrutiny, and also from implementing both our platform as well as broader AI tools within the company.

Speaker #4: And so, I would say we're an invest-first mindset and a waste-nothing mindset. And that combination, I think, gives us the ability to both grow and drive the strategic initiatives while expanding operating margins.

Ashim Gupta: I would say we're invest first mindset and a waste nothing mindset. That combination, I think, gives us the ability to both grow and drive the strategic initiatives while expanding operating margins.

Speaker #6: Your next question will come from Pat McEwie with William Blair. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question will come from Tim McHugh with William Blair. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question will come from Pat McIlwee with William Blair. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #7: Hi, Daniel and Ashim. Thanks for taking my questions. My first question: I thought the AI Summit you put on earlier this year was very helpful in envisioning how customers can evolve from your traditional RPA workflows towards more agentic-enabled workflows.

Tim McHugh: Hi, Daniel and Ashim. Thanks for taking my questions. My first question, I thought the AI summit you put on earlier this year was very helpful in envisioning how customers can evolve from your traditional RPA workflows towards more agentic enabled workflows, and specifically how they can choose their own autonomy level and then kind of use a feedback loop to evolve the level of automation in that process over time. I know it's early on, but for your existing customers, where are they in that autonomy evolution right now? Are a lot of them content with the value that they're getting from current RPA workflows and leveraging AI within newer workflows, or are they really racing towards these agentic solutions to maximize the ROI they're getting from the platform, both existing and new workflows alike?

Pat McIlwee: Hi, Daniel and Ashim. Thanks for taking my questions. My first question, I thought the AI summit you put on earlier this year was very helpful in envisioning how customers can evolve from your traditional RPA workflows towards more agentic enabled workflows, and specifically how they can choose their own autonomy level and then kind of use a feedback loop to evolve the level of automation in that process over time. I know it's early on, but for your existing customers, where are they in that autonomy evolution right now? Are a lot of them content with the value that they're getting from current RPA workflows and leveraging AI within newer workflows, or are they really racing towards these agentic solutions to maximize the ROI they're getting from the platform, both existing and new workflows alike?

Speaker #7: And specifically, how they can choose their own autonomy level and then use a feedback loop to evolve the level of automation in that process over time.

Speaker #7: So I know it's early on, but for your existing customers, where are they in that autonomy evolution right now? Are a lot of them content with the value they're getting from current RPA workflows?

Speaker #7: And leveraging AI within newer workflows, or are they really racing toward these agentic solutions to maximize the ROI they're getting from the platform, both existing and new workflows alike?

Speaker #4: Yeah, I would like to point out that despite the technology being very new, it is hailed by our customers with a lot of enthusiasm.

Daniel Dines: I would like to point out that despite the technology being very new, it is hailed by our customers with a lot of enthusiasm. Even when we were in closed preview, we got a lot of requirements from the customers. Some of the customers even went to fine-tune some of the skills that we publish and use them with the coding agents. Also, I would like to point out to the fact that basically coding agents solve two of the biggest hurdles in deployment of automations. Number one was always the implementation leading time, until an enterprise would get value from automation. That's been already proven internally by our own forward-deployed engineers and externally by a few advanced customers that can be shrinked, in many cases, from weeks to hours, which is very significant. The second way that coding agents unlocks a bottleneck of automation is in maintenance.

Speaker #4: Even when we were in closed preview, we got a lot of requirements from the customers. Some of the customers even went to find them online.

Speaker #4: Some of the skills that we publish are used with the coding agents. Also, I would like to point out the fact that, basically, coding agents solve two of the biggest hurdles in the deployment of automations.

Speaker #4: Number one was always the implementation lead time, until an enterprise would get value from automation. So that's been already proven internally by our own forward-deployed engineers and externally by a few advanced customers.

Speaker #4: That can be shrunk in many cases from weeks to hours, which is very significant. The second way that coding agents unlock a bottleneck of automation is in maintenance.

Speaker #4: One of the apparent flaws of automations was always the fact that they are fragile and they break. If there is an upstream modification in an enterprise system that automations are not aware of, they might break, and that will require human intervention and many days of reviewing and understanding.

Daniel Dines: One of the apparent flaws of automations was always the fact that they are fragile and they break. If there is an upstream modification in an enterprise system that automations are not aware, they might break, and that will require human intervention and many days of reviewing and understanding. Now we offer both a healing agent and a diagnose agent. The healing agent can do a lot of the work during runtime, during execution, and in many cases, the healing agent can fix the execution in itself and the processes run unaffected. When there is an exception, we help tremendously developers with these diagnose agents to gather all the context around an automation, and they can publish a fix in much faster than before. Yes, I would conclude that for us, this is a really big unlock.

Speaker #4: Now we offer both the healing agent and the diagnosed agent. So, the healing agent can do a lot of the work during runtime, during execution, and in many cases, the healing agent can fix the execution itself and the processes run unaffected.

Speaker #4: When there is an exception, we help developers tremendously with these diagnostic agents to gather all the context around an automation, and they can publish a fix much faster than before.

Speaker #4: So yes, I would conclude that, for us, this is a really big unlock. And we see the potential for huge acceleration of customer adoption.

Daniel Dines: We see the potential for a huge acceleration of customer adoption.

Speaker #7: Right. Okay. Thanks, Daniel, for the thoughts there. And to kind of continue on, it sounds like AI agents are largely extending rather than replacing deterministic automation.

Tim McHugh: Right. Okay. Thanks, Daniel, for the thoughts there. To continue on, it sounds like AI agents are largely extending, not replacing deterministic automation within your platform. As we think about that, I wanted to ask, is there any sort of dynamic where you're seeing customers leverage agentic AI to somewhat cannibalize some of the traditional bot monetization, or is it largely building incremental automation and therefore incremental monetization on top of those workflows?

Pat McIlwee: Right. Okay. Thanks, Daniel, for the thoughts there. To continue on, it sounds like AI agents are largely extending, not replacing deterministic automation within your platform. As we think about that, I wanted to ask, is there any sort of dynamic where you're seeing customers leverage agentic AI to somewhat cannibalize some of the traditional bot monetization, or is it largely building incremental automation and therefore incremental monetization on top of those workflows?

Speaker #7: Within your platform. But as we think about that, I wanted to ask, is there any sort of dynamic where you're seeing customers leverage agentic AI to somewhat cannibalize some of the traditional bot monetization?

Speaker #7: Or is it largely building incremental automation, and therefore incremental monetization, on top of those workflows?

Speaker #4: Yeah, I would like to say that perhaps this is one of the biggest confusions that AI brings to the table: the idea that non-deterministic, probabilistic technology can replace deterministic automations.

Daniel Dines: Yeah, I would like to say that perhaps this is one of the biggest confusion that AI brings into the table. The idea that a non-deterministic, probabilistic technology can replace deterministic automations. This is not true. It's not true from the capability perspective, and it's not true from an economical standpoint. Let me elaborate a bit on both. A probabilistic technology is not architecturally meant to follow a dozen of steps, and sometimes hundreds of steps in the same order, in the same sequence. Every step will have a probability. When you multiply these probabilities, you will end up with something that is not reliable, end of the day. There are many regulated industries that cannot tolerate anything that is not 100% reliable. They would prefer an automation to fail with an exception rather than produce an unexpected result.

Speaker #4: This is not true. It's not true from a capability perspective, and it's not true from an economical standpoint. Let me elaborate a bit on both.

Speaker #4: Probabilistic technology is not architecturally meant to follow a dozen steps—and sometimes hundreds of steps—in the same order, in the same sequence.

Speaker #4: Every step will have a probability. When you multiply these probabilities, you will end up with something that is not reliable. End of the day.

Speaker #4: And there are many regulated industries that cannot tolerate anything that is not 100% reliable. They will prefer an automation to fail as an exception, rather than produce an unexpected result.

Speaker #4: So deterministic bots cannot be replaced by non-deterministic AI agents. Again, this is the architecture that is proven over and over again by all the AI agents that are out there.

Daniel Dines: Deterministic bots cannot be replaced by non-deterministic AI agents. Again, this is the architecture that is proven over and over again by all the AI agents that are out there. The most sophisticated agents like Claude bots or OpenAI Codex are built on the foundation of deterministic tools that they code. It's a harness around the model and deterministic tools. This is exactly how they work. This is exactly what we are proposing to our customers. Hey, reuse your investment in your existing deterministic automation and surround it with process orchestration, which is also deterministic, that can orchestrate models, agents in the context of determinism. That's really the only way to deploy it effectively into an enterprise context. Now to the second point about the economical aspect.

Speaker #4: The most sophisticated agents, like Claude Codes or OpenAI Codex, are built on the foundation of deterministic tools, as they call them. So there's a hardness around the model and deterministic tools.

Speaker #4: This is exactly how they work. This is exactly what we are proposing to our customers. Guys, reuse your investment in your existing deterministic automation and surround it with process orchestration, which is also deterministic, that can orchestrate models and agents in the context of determinism.

Speaker #4: That's really the only way to deploy it effectively into an enterprise context. And now to the second point about the economic aspect. Even if, in certain cases, an agent can replicate some steps that are deterministic.

Daniel Dines: Even if in certain cases, an agent can replicate some steps that are deterministic, why would you do something that is costly and is going to consume tokens at every step in a process rather than generate a script that works and it costs nothing in order to run? To my previous answer, this is the best combination between AI and deterministic. AI creates automation, sometimes maybe even on the fly. AI will run those automations. It's very cheap to run, very deterministic, reliable, and auditable. Only when these scripts break, you can invoke again AI to fix the scripts. That's basically the right model to run agentic AI and automation into enterprise context.

Speaker #4: Why would you do something that is costly and is going to consume tokens at every step in a process, rather than generate a script that works and costs nothing to run?

Speaker #4: So, to my previous answer, this is the best combination between AI and deterministic. AI creates automation, sometimes maybe even on the fly. AI will run those automations, and it’s very cheap to run.

Speaker #4: Very deterministic, reliable, auditable. And only when these scripts break, you can invoke AI again to fix the scripts. But that's basically the right model to run agentic AI and automation in an enterprise context.

Speaker #8: Your next question will come from Raymond Lenshaw with Barclays. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question will come from Raimo Lenschow with Barclays. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #7: Perfect. Thank you. Thanks for squeezing me in. Daniel, can we stay on that subject? Because that's obviously where a lot of the investor questions are coming from.

Raimo Lenschow: Perfect. Thank you. Thanks for squeezing me in. Daniel, to stay on that subject, because that's obviously where a lot of the investor questions are coming around. How does the world work then going forward if you do the deterministic part and you have all the experience in the world, that's why you should do that. Who's doing then the probabilistic part? What are you seeing there in terms of where customers' thinking and how they think about you in that context? I had one follow-up for Ashim.

Speaker #7: So how do you—how does the world work then, going forward? If you do the deterministic part and you have all the experience in the world, so you should do that, who's doing, then, the probabilistic part?

Speaker #7: What are you seeing there in terms of work, customers' thinking, and how they think about you in that context? And then I had one follow-up for Ashim.

Speaker #4: Well, I think the answer varies. We are model agnostic in terms of how we see the world. We provide deterministic orchestration, and we can infuse that deterministic orchestration at any steps with agentic AI.

Daniel Dines: Well, I think the answer varies in. We are model agnostic in terms of how we see the world. We provide deterministic orchestration, and we can infuse that deterministic auto-orchestration at any steps with agentic AI. That agentic AI used behind the scenes, frontier lab models can use open weights models. We have a bring your own model policy. We will accommodate every spectrum of requirements from our customers. Again, I think what's important to note that even on the frontier lab models, the offering, it's a combination between deterministic and the model itself, which is purely cognitive. We extend, in a way, that model into the enterprise work itself. When you go and I think very important distinction to understand the enterprise work is to think of who initiates an agent where process automation.

Speaker #4: That agentic AI, used behind the scenes, frontier lab models can use open weights models. We have a bring-your-own-model policy, so we will accommodate every spectrum of requirements from our customers.

Speaker #4: But again, I think what's important to note is that even on the frontier lab models, the offering is a combination between deterministic and the model itself, which is purely cognitive.

Speaker #4: We extend, in a way, that model into the enterprise work itself. And when you go—and I think a very important distinction to understand in enterprise work—is to think of who initiates an agent, where process automation.

Speaker #4: It's a big difference if it's initiated by a person and the agent works on a person's desktop, versus an automation that is triggered by an event or by the enterprise workforce.

Daniel Dines: It's a big difference if it's initiated by a person and the agent work on a person desktop versus an automation is triggered by an event or by an enterprise workforce, where you will need to have different degree of auditability and reliability. Again, this is where we really shine. We have this 10 years of experience in running a large scale unattended automation that work on event triggers.

Speaker #4: Where you will need to have different degrees of auditability and reliability—and again, this is where we really shine. We have this 10 years of experience in running at large scale.

Speaker #4: Unattended automations that work on event triggers. And we are involving agentic AI and models into these workflows that can run unattended.

Raimo Lenschow: Yeah.

Daniel Dines: We are involving agentic AI and models into these workflows that can run unattended.

Speaker #7: Yeah, okay. Makes sense. That's very clear. Thank you, Daniel. And then, Ashim, the one other question I get from investors a lot at the moment is, you're doing really well on the revenue side.

Raimo Lenschow: Yeah. Okay. Makes sense. That's very clear. Thank you, Daniel. Then Ashim and the one other question I get from investors a lot at the moment is you're doing really well on the revenue side. ARR is very steady, at some point, they need to kind of start lining up. Revenue at the moment keeps growing faster than ARR. How do we need to think about that dynamic? In theory, you would think that they should line up, I would think.

Speaker #7: ARR is very steady. But at some point, they kind of need to start lining up. So, revenue at the moment keeps growing faster than ARR.

Speaker #7: How do we need to think about that dynamic? Because, in theory, you would think that they should line up, I would think.

Speaker #5: Yeah, I think, Raymond, the first piece is, again, when you look at it on a trailing 12-month basis, the revenue growth rate is 15%.

Ashim Gupta: Yeah, I think, Raimo, the first piece is, again, when you look at it on a trailing 12-month basis, the revenue growth rate is 15% versus the ARR growth rate of 12% that you see. The second piece is within the revenue growth rate, there's obviously the licensed revenue growth rate, and then there's services, et cetera. You can see we actually had good services revenue as SDEs, et cetera, are in demand from our customers. That's the second piece that is there. Over time, this has moved in different directions. There's been times where with ASC 606 revenue has trailed as certain duration and mix has moved the growth rate and where it succeeded. When you look at it on like an overall average over a longer period of time, it's together.

Speaker #5: Versus the ARR growth rate of 12% that you see. The second piece is within the revenue growth rate—there's obviously the license revenue growth rate, and then there's services, etc.

Speaker #5: You can see we actually had good services revenue, as FTEs, etc., are in demand from our customers. So that's a second piece. That is there.

Speaker #5: Over time, this has moved in different directions. There have been times where, with 606, revenue has trailed as certain duration and mix has moved the growth rate.

Speaker #5: And where it succeeded. But when you look at it on an overall average over a longer period of time, it's together. I don't really see any major disconnect at this moment that is driven by a business-specific area.

Ashim Gupta: I don't really see any major disconnect at this moment that is driven by a business specific area. It's really just a mix of 606 impacts on the business. Again, I would emphasize to look at it on a trailing 12-month basis versus looking at it where it is just in a particular quarter, because ARR is obviously an annual metric.

Speaker #5: It's really just a mix of 606 impacts on the business. And again, I would emphasize looking at it on a trailing 12-month basis, versus looking at where it is in just a particular quarter.

Speaker #5: Because ARR is obviously an annual metric.

Operator: Your next question will come from Michael Turrin with Wells Fargo. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #8: Your next question will come from Michael Turn with Wells Fargo. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #6: Hey, great. Thanks very much. Appreciate you taking the questions. I'll just ask two upfront and you can take them in whatever sequence you like. I guess the first is just in terms of public sector.

Michael Turrin: Hey, great. Thanks very much. Appreciate you taking the questions. I'll just ask the two up front, and you can take them on whatever sequence you like. I guess the first is just in terms of public sector. As we roll into mid-year, maybe just remind us how you're thinking about public sector this year. Any updates in terms of progress or deal progression from that vertical specifically? Then, maybe Ashim, just on the net retention rate, just what you're seeing currently and the uptick there and how to think about the trend line. Obviously, without guidance, but just thinking through the drivers there. Thanks very much.

Speaker #6: As we roll into midyear, maybe just remind us how you're thinking about public sector this year. Any updates in terms of progress or deal progression from that vertical specifically?

Speaker #6: And then maybe, Ashim, just on the net retention rate, what you're seeing currently in the uptick there and how to think about the trend line—obviously without guidance—but just thinking through the drivers there.

Speaker #6: Thanks very much.

Speaker #5: Yeah, let me answer. I can answer both questions. I'll start with the net dollar retention rate. I'm actually super excited about the net dollar retention rate and the progress we've made on it.

Ashim Gupta: Yeah, I can answer both questions. I'll start with the dollar-based net retention rate. I'm actually super excited with the dollar-based net retention rate and the progress we've made on it. As you can see, we have a 2-point increase quarter-over-quarter. That's one of the first times we've had an increase as we've stabilized net NRR and beginning to point the trajectory up towards that re-acceleration mark. One, when you normalize for foreign exchange and the impact of M&A, that is 1 point, but it's still a re-acceleration of dollar-based net retention rate. We're actually very encouraged by. As I said, as we start to stabilize net new ARR, the next step is re-acceleration. We're moving into that territory, and I think that's really great progress by the teams and speaks to the strategy and the operational execution that you see.

Speaker #5: As you can see, we have a two-point increase quarter over quarter. That's one of the first times we've had an increase as we've stabilized net URR and are beginning to point the trajectory up towards that re-acceleration mark.

Speaker #5: When you normalize for foreign exchange and the impact of M&A, that is one point. But it's still a re-acceleration of net dollar retention rate.

Speaker #5: So we're actually very encouraged by it. And as I said, as we start to stabilize net new ARR, the next step is re-acceleration. So we're moving into that territory.

Speaker #5: And I think that's really great progress by the teams and speaks to the strategy and the operational execution that we see. In terms of public sector, I actually was at the public sector Fusion event that we had.

Ashim Gupta: In terms of public sector, I actually was at the public sector UiPath FUSION event that we had. The energy was very strong. I think public sector in terms of disruption of budgets, et cetera, we feel like there is good stability. Obviously, as funding moves with different defense initiatives and wars, et cetera, that are there, we stay on top of it. Within many agencies, we actually have a very good presenceStrong relationships with really good use cases, whether that is audit compliance within the government, which we have a very strong set of solutions and partners that we're working with, or other transactional areas. We actually feel like our relationships are very good. In terms of what's in for, as we talk about events, we continue to guide what's in front of us there, which is we're pretty measured and prudent.

Speaker #5: The energy was very strong. I think, in the public sector, in terms of disruption of budgets, etc., we feel pretty—we feel like there is good stability.

Speaker #5: Obviously, as funding moves with different defense initiatives and wars, etc., we stay on top of it. But within many agencies, we actually have a very good presence, strong relationships, and really good use cases.

Speaker #5: Whether that is audit compliance within the government, for which we have a very strong set of solutions and partners that we're working with, or in other transactional areas, we actually feel like our relationships are very good.

Speaker #5: In terms of what's in front of us as we talk about events, we continue to guide what's in front of us there, which is we're pretty measured and prudent.

Speaker #5: We know what projects are generally funded, and we're looking to execute against that.

Ashim Gupta: We know what projects are generally funded, and we're looking to execute against that.

Speaker #8: Your next question will come from Radi Sultan with UBS. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question will come from Radi Sultan with UBS. Your line is open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #7: Awesome, yeah. Thanks for taking the question. First, for Daniel, just on the UiPath for Coding Agents, you've mentioned this would be targeted at the full software development lifecycle.

Radi Sultan: Awesome. Yeah, thanks for taking my question. First for Daniel, just on the UiPath for Coding Agents, you mentioned this would be targeted at the full software development life cycle, I guess, are there one or two areas where you see the biggest pain points where you think you can add the most value? You also mentioned this could strengthen retention. Maybe just how you imagine monetizing or bundling these agents into the broader suite.

Speaker #7: But I guess, are there one or two areas where you see the biggest pain points—where you think you can add the most value?

Speaker #7: And then you also mentioned this could strengthen retention. Maybe just how you imagine monetizing or bundling these agents into the broader suite?

Speaker #6: So we plan to bring agents across the entire development lifecycle. We are starting with an agent that helps with planning for an automation. So you can have a business analyst that can, with the help of the agent, interview different subject matter experts, gather all the information, create a process documentation document, and then we will have a solution architect agent that will take this design document and convert it into code.

Daniel Dines: We plan to bring agents across the entire development life cycle. We are starting with an agent that helps with planning for an automation. You can have a business analyst that can, with the help of the agent, interview different subject matter experts, gather all the information, create a process documentation document, we will have a solution architect agent that will take this design document and convert it into code. We will have different agents for different types of code. We have an agent that can create enterprise user interface. We have an agent that will create RPA. Another agent that can create API workflows. An agent that will create process orchestration based on Maestro. These can be deployed and tested. Again, it's fully agentic.

Speaker #6: And we will have different agents for different types of code. We'll have an agent that can create enterprise user interfaces. We'll have an agent that will create RPA, another agent that can create API workflows, and an agent that will create process orchestration based on Maestro.

Speaker #6: These can be deployed and tested again. It's fully agentic. Once they are in production, we have agents that monitor the entire execution and can proactively fix the errors that are coming, and once there is an exception, we also have agents that help our developers to diagnose the exception and fix it faster.

Daniel Dines: Once they are in production, we have agents that monitor the entire execution and can fix proactively the errors that are coming. Once there is an exception, we have also agents that help our developers to diagnose faster the exception and fix them faster. The entire life cycle, there is no single point in the life cycle that is not touched by agents. In fact, we believe that the entire offering surface of our platform is basically agentic first. Humans, we think, are mostly going to do validation. They will inject goals to the agents, and they will do the validation and supervision of the work. Most of the work itself is going to be created by agents.

Speaker #6: So the entire lifecycle, there is no single point in the lifecycle that is not touched by agents. In fact, we believe that the entire offering surface of our platform is basically agentic-first.

Speaker #6: Humans, we think, are mostly going to do validation. They will inject goals to the agents, and they will do the validation and supervision of the work.

Speaker #6: But most of the work is done by agents.

Radi Sultan: Got it. Maybe just one follow-up for Ashim. Last quarter, we talked about core RPA still growing and becoming increasingly strategic to the AI product offerings. If you just talk through how you think about how pricing should evolve for the RPA deterministic automation side of the business, given that it is becoming increasingly more strategic to customer AI initiatives to capture that incremental value.

Speaker #7: Got it, got it. Maybe just one follow-up for Ashim. Last quarter, we talked about core RPA still growing and becoming increasingly strategic to the AI product offerings.

Speaker #7: If you could just talk through how you think about how pricing should evolve for the RPA deterministic automation side of the business, given that it is becoming increasingly more strategic to customer AI initiatives to kind of capture that incremental value.

Speaker #5: Yeah. Look, I think that there are a lot of discussions around outcome-based pricing that are real and more active than they ever have been before.

Ashim Gupta: Yeah, look, I think that there's a lot of discussions around outcome-based pricing that are real and active more than they ever have been before. I think that is 1 tier of pricing to our top customers that I think it's a real evolution. We see real line of path, and we see people, especially with their fears about getting ROI with AI, really looking for that. The second piece, I would say, is I think where we're looking through is we also see use case or process-based pricing, where people are looking for restricted use cases so they can solve problems, and be able to use different parts of the platform that enable them to do so. Those are two evolutions that are there, in terms of where we are with the deterministic side and overall.

Speaker #5: So I think that is one tier of pricing. To our top customers, I think it's a real evolution. We see a real line of path.

Speaker #5: And we see people, especially with their fears of getting ROI with AI, really looking for that. The second piece I would say is, I think where we're looking through is we also see use case or process-based pricing.

Speaker #5: Where people are looking for restricted use cases, so they can solve problems and be able to use different parts of the platform that enable them to do so.

Speaker #5: Those are two evolutions that are there. In terms of where we are with the deterministic side and overall.

Operator: This now concludes the Q&A session. I would like to turn the call back over to management for closing remarks.

Speaker #8: This now concludes the Q&A session. I'd like to turn the call back over to management for closing remarks.

Speaker #6: Thank you so much for the questions. And, as usual, we would like to speak directly with many of you over the next few days.

Daniel Dines: Thank you so much for the questions. As usual, we would like to speak directly with many of you over the next few days. Thank you so much.
