ARR

We believe that ARR is a key indicator of the trajectory of our business performance, enables measurement of the progress of our business initiatives, and serves as an indicator of future growth. We define ARR as the annualized value of subscription contracts that have commenced revenue recognition as of the measurement date. ARR highlights trends that may be less visible from our financial statements due to ratable revenue recognition. ARR does not have a standardized meaning and is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. ARR should be viewed independently of revenue and is not intended to be combined with or replace it. ARR is not a forecast, and the active contracts at the date used in calculating ARR may or may not be renewed. For all international customer contracts denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, ARR is translated from local currency to U.S. dollar based on the currency exchange rate as of the effective date of the contract.

Number of Customers Over $100,000 in ARR

We focus on customers representing over $100,000 in ARR, as this key business metric is indicative of our penetration with larger customers. The number of our customers over $100,000 in ARR has grown over time as we have focused our sales efforts on larger customers, invested in our partner ecosystem, and released more Applications to address the needs of our larger customers.

To better reflect the structure of our largest enterprise customers, who often have multiple subsidiaries and grow through mergers and acquisitions, we adjusted our definition of a customer in the fiscal quarter ended May 3, 2025. Previously, separate entities within a larger organization were counted as individual customers. We now define a customer as an entity, or group of affiliated entities with a shared parent organization, that has ARR of greater than $1,000 at the end of a reporting period. This better aligns with our current go-to-market strategy and how we assign sales representatives to customer accounts. Determinations regarding the relationship between customer entities are primarily based on publicly available information and information supplied to us by our customers, and we have not independently verified the legal relationship between
