processes, procurement requirements and budget cycles, and is subject to significant risks over which we have little or no control, including:

•customers’ budgetary constraints and priorities;

•the timing of customers’ budget cycles;

•the need by some customers for lengthy evaluations prior to purchasing products; and

•the length and timing of customers’ approval processes.

Our typical sales cycles for more substantial enterprise customers can often be long, and we expect that this lengthy sales cycle may continue or could even increase, particularly during times of uncertain or volatile macroeconomic conditions. In the large enterprise market, the customer’s decision to use our platform may be an enterprise-wide decision or may require the approval of senior management, which may not only lengthen the sales cycle but also reduce the likelihood of completing a sale. Delayed and more complex sales cycles could cause our operating results and financial condition to suffer in a given period. If we cannot adequately expand and scale our sales force, we will experience further delays in signing new customers, which could slow our revenue growth.

A portion of our revenue is dependent on a few customers.

For the fiscal years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the aggregate of our top five customers accounted for approximately 8%, 8% and 9%, respectively, of our revenue. During the three months ended January 31, 2024, we experienced the attrition of one of these top five customers, and the corresponding absence of revenue from this customer has since been realized primarily in our quarterly results for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2025. We anticipate that sales of our platform to a relatively small number of customers will continue to account for a significant portion of our revenue in future periods. If we were to lose any more of our large customers, our revenue could decline and our business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. These negative effects could be exacerbated by customer consolidation, changes in technologies or solutions used by customers, changes in demand for our features, selection of suppliers other than us, customer bankruptcies or customer departures from their respective industries, pricing competition or deviation from marketing and sales methods away from physical location retailing, any one of which may result in even fewer customers accounting for a high percentage of our revenue and reduced demand from any single large customer.

In addition, some of our customers have used, and may in the future use, the size and relative importance of their purchases to our business to
