The primary engine behind the quarter was cloud, which generated $540.82 million, up 12% from a year earlier, with AI and self-service annual recurring revenue accelerating 42% year-over-year, a figure CEO Scott Russell pointed to as validation of the company's platform strategy. GAAP operating income expanded 25% to $160.59 million as operating margin widened to 22.1% from 19.4%, reflecting meaningful operating leverage. Looking ahead, management guided Q3 non-GAAP revenue to $722 million to $732 million and raised full-year EPS guidance to $12.33 to $12.53, representing 12% growth at the midpoint, though the outlook excludes any contribution from the pending Cognigy acquisition, which some analysts view as a source of delayed growth acceleration rather than near-term uplift.
Key Takeaways
- • Cloud revenue growth of 12% year-over-year driven by AI and self-service demand

- • GAAP operating margin expanded to 22.1% from 19.4%

“We're pleased to report another strong quarter, with total revenue reaching $727 million—surpassing the high end of our guidance range—and earnings per share of $3.01 at the top of the expected range. This performance was driven by continued strength in our cloud business, which grew 12% year-over-year. A key catalyst behind this momentum is the accelerating demand for AI and self-service solutions, with annual recurring revenue in this part of our business rising an impressive 42% compared to the same period last year.”
