The standout driver behind the profitability beat was a dramatic expansion in non-GAAP operating income, which surged to $40.31 million from just $11.54 million a year earlier, pushing non-GAAP operating margin to 20.7% from 7.2%. Cash generation reinforced the picture, with Q4 adjusted free cash flow of $41.70 million and a full-year cash and marketable securities balance of $1.07 billion. Not everything pointed upward, however; net dollar retention slipped to 103% from 108% a year ago, hinting at softer expansion revenue trends heading into 2025. The company guided full-year 2025 revenue of $809.00 million to $821.00 million, reflecting 12-14% growth, a step down from 2024's pace, with non-GAAP EPS expected in the range of $0.52 to $0.54.
