The floor is yours.

David Trone
David Trone
Senior Vice President, Investor Relations at Intapp

Thank you. Welcome to NTAP's fiscal third quarter twenty twenty five financial results. On the call with me today are John Hall, Chairman and CEO of NTAP and David Morton, Chief Financial Officer. During the course of this conference call, we may make forward looking statements regarding trends, strategies, and the anticipated performance of our business, including guidance provided for our fiscal fourth quarter and full year 2025. These forward looking statements are based on management's current views and expectations, entail certain assumptions made as of today's date, and are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described in our SEC filings and other publicly available documents that are difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward looking statements.

David Trone
David Trone
Senior Vice President, Investor Relations at Intapp

NTAP disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward looking statements except as required by law. Further on today's call, we will also discuss certain non GAAP metrics that we believe aid in the understanding of our financial results, including non GAAP gross margin, non GAAP operating expenses, non GAAP operating income, non GAAP diluted net income per share, and free cash flow. As a reminder, all of our financial figures we will discuss today are non GAAP except for revenue and revenue growth, cash and cash equivalents, and total remaining performance obligations. Our GAAP financial results, along with reconciliations of GAAP to non GAAP financial measures, can be found in today's earnings release and its supplemental financial tables, which is available on our website and as an exhibit to the Form eight ks furnished with the SEC prior to this call or a supplemental financial presentation, which is available on our website. With that, I'll hand the conversation over to John.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

Thank you, David. Good afternoon, everyone. Thank you for joining us today as we share the results of our fiscal third quarter. I'm happy to say that once again, we've achieved strong quarterly results, driven by the launch of new solutions and AI capabilities, an exciting new acquisition, new partnerships, and an expanding client base around the world. In Q3, our cloud ARR grew to $352,000,000, up 28% year over year.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

Cloud now represents 77% of our total ARR of $455,000,000 In the quarter, we earned SaaS revenue of $85,000,000 up 28% year over year and total revenue of $129,000,000 up 17% year over year. Now I'd like to share some key innovations and growth drivers from our fiscal third quarter. In February, we hosted our premier product event, INTAP Amplify in New York, which was attended by leaders from more than 400 of our client firms. We previewed our latest advancements in alignment with our growth AI strategy, and we demonstrated our ongoing commitment to tailored innovation. First, we announced the general availability of Intact DealCloud Activator, a research backed AI enabled growth platform that gives professionals the tools, insights, and coaching they need to build, scale, and apply successful business development behaviors.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

We previewed our transformed IntapTime product scheduled for release this summer. The new IntapTime uses generative AI and a modernized user experience to make timekeeping faster and easier for professionals. Complete and accurate time entries help firms grow and better realize revenue while making clients happier by reducing errors and non compliant billing. We introduced in tap walls for AI, which offers protection against the oversharing of confidential data by AI tools, letting firms confidently deploy AI no matter the provider. We also added three new features to inTAP Assist for DealCloud.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

First is an origination capability that uses Applied AI to deliver search results based on users' investment criteria and preferences, helping to uncover more opportunities faster than ever before. Next is a smart tagging capability that further automates data capture and enhances organization, ensuring that firm intelligence, like client activity, deal status, and prospective opportunities is easy to find, understand, and use. And we delivered a prompt studio feature that helps investors, advisers tailor their AI to generate highly personalized insights specific to their role, giving them even better performing AI for their unique investment and client strategies in pursuit of growth. Zach Polly, an associate at Alterna Equity Partners, told us, IntAP Assist enables us to include more information on intermediaries and target companies. With smart tagging and AI suggestions, information is inputted faster than ever with 100% accuracy, allowing us to include more and get more done in a shorter time frame.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

Following the success and client response to InteP Amplify in New York, we're looking forward to bringing the event to London this May as well. We're also pleased to be continuing our success in real assets. A key win from this quarter is with a large U. S.-based real assets firm. They recently replaced a legacy horizontal CRM with DealCloud to access better investor relationship data and accelerate fundraising as they establish new investment lines.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

We're continuing to grow and enhance our Real Assets offering through the strategic acquisition of Termsheet, a software provider for real estate teams. Bringing together YieldCloud and Termsheet adds additional capabilities and expands our ability to serve new personas within Real Assets. Combined, YieldCloud and Termsheet will deliver a powerful operating system tailored for every aspect of the real assets investment life cycle. One of our clients told us that this strategic move differentiates Intap from more narrow tail management solutions, validating that we've chosen a partner who will innovate to help us grow. We're pleased to welcome the term sheet team to IntAP, further building our unparalleled team of industry experts.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

Our partner ecosystem also continues to be an important cornerstone of our company's strategy. We're continuing to achieve strong growth, signing eight new partners this quarter and bringing our partner ecosystem to more than 140. New partners span technology integration, services, data, and software companies, including Infobode, a research news and insights platform for the real estate industry, and Subscribe, a provider of complementary investor onboarding capabilities. Additionally, in March, we co hosted our third annual CIO leadership summit with Microsoft for a group of select legal accounting and consulting CIOs. Held at Microsoft's Redmond campus, the summit focused on driving innovation and accelerating productivity through AI and cloud technologies.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

It also highlighted the power of our partnership, including the many key integrations that enable operational transformation and enhanced collaboration. Okay. I'll turn now to q three wins, both new clients and expansions as well as cloud migrations. First, I'm pleased to share that we're continuing to grow through the addition of new clients. Here are a few examples from the quarter.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

New Forests, a global investment manager of nature based real assets and natural capital strategies, chose DealCloud to streamline its reporting and communications and to better track investors and fundraising for a more tailored approach to relationship management. Next, Omnice Capital, a private equity firm dedicated to energy transition, replaced a legacy horizontal CRM with DealCloud to increase adoption and better manage investor relations and communications. Next, Australian law firm Gadens chose Intept Intake and Intept Conflicts to improve compliance with new anti money laundering and counterterrorism financing regulations. And next, a global law firm based in Europe selected in tap conflicts, intake and terms to support its strategic growth with improved data quality and streamline processes for regulatory adherence. This quarter, we also continue to see a keen focus on independence in accounting, with first choosing NTAP employee compliance to replace homegrown or legacy solutions and manual processes.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

These include Crow, a top 20 US based accounting firm, and Cohen and Company, a top 50 accounting firm. As well this quarter, upselling and cross selling success in our existing accounts continue to drive strong cloud net revenue retention. I'll share some notable examples. First, existing client DNB, Norway's largest financial services group and bank, increased its number of DealCloud seats after acquiring Carnegie Bank and standardizing on our platform. Next, a US based global alternative investment firm added additional DealCloud seats to bring all deal teams onto the same platform and create one central point of information.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

Next, an Amlaw two hundred client focused on m and a transactions replaced its legacy horizontal CRM with DealCloud. This furthers their goal of creating a legal ecosystem in the cloud along with intact time, conflicts, intake, terms, and walls. And next, Accordion, a private equity focused consulting firm that I mentioned in the past when they purchased DealCloud, added Intap Conflicts to help them bring on new business without conflicts of interest among their clients and PE investors. Finally, we continue to help more legal clients, including Fenimore, Blazer Weil, Jackson Lewis, and Smith Gambrell migrate Intact Time to the cloud. Once implemented, they'll have access to a more modern web client, new AI features, and continuous innovation, including the new IntApp time announced at Amplify.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

In conclusion, we're proud of our strong third quarter performance, and we continue to be optimistic about our growth opportunities. As our Q3 performance has shown, we are growing by adding new capabilities and increasing our global enterprise go to market reach. We see continued opportunity both to add new clients across a broad TAM and to deliver greater value by expanding our existing client base. We're serving a durable end market with our subscription revenue model, industry specific cloud platform and applied AI and compliance capabilities. We have a great growth opportunity to drive AI, cloud adoption, and modernization across all the industries we serve.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

As always, I'd like to thank our clients, our partners, our investors, our Board and our global Intact team for their teamwork and dedication. Thank you all very much. Okay, David, over to you.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

Thank you, John, and thanks to everyone for joining us today. A special thank you as well to those who turned into our Amplify keynote in February to hear about NTAP's latest product advancements and roadmap strategy across our vertical specific solutions. As a product led growth company, our rate of pace of innovation over the past year has been exceptional. With that, I am pleased to report a solid third quarter performance. The durability of our cloud business was evident in Q3, driven by progress with large accounts across verticals and geographies, as well as success in transitioning client spend to the cloud.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

We also continue to demonstrate improving efficiencies and leverage within the model. We are confident in our ability to deliver profitable growth as we close out fiscal twenty twenty five and enter fiscal twenty twenty six, well positioned to capitalize on the positive digitalization and cloud native trends in front of us. Let's begin with fiscal Q3 results. SaaS revenue was $84,900,000 up 28% year over year, driven by new client acquisitions, contract expansions and the migration of on premise products to the cloud. As of March 31, '90 '3 percent of our clients have at least one cloud module, up one point sequentially.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

License revenue was $31,700,000 in fiscal Q3, up 2% year over year. Positive contributions continue to be on prem price increases and contract expansions and renewals, and these were largely offset this quarter by our steady pace migrating clients to the cloud and onto our SaaS offerings. Professional services revenue totaled $12,500,000 down 6% year over year. Our strategic decision to outsource more activities to the partners has allowed us to place greater emphasis on enhancing client satisfaction and driving co sell pipeline generation supporting our long term cloud growth objectives. Total revenue was $129,100,000 up 17% year over year driven primarily by sales of our cloud solutions.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

Revenue from our international operations accounted for over a third of our total revenue this quarter and continues to provide growth opportunities. International revenue grew 20% year over year in Q3. We kicked off our calendar 2025 with noteworthy execution on our acquisition and partnership growth strategies. First, as John mentioned earlier, the acquisition of Termsheet marks an important next step in deepening our expertise of real assets, building on strong organic momentum, including multiple new logo wins this quarter. This combination will broaden our capabilities to fully serve real estate teams across their investment life cycles and personas.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

With this acquisition, we continue to reinforce the core tenets of our ecosystem expansion track record, strengthening the breadth and depth of our vertical specific offerings and delivering long term value to our end markets. On that note, our broader alliances and partner ecosystem saw progress this quarter with the newly signed Infobode, a real estate data partner complementary to our term sheet acquisition, our partner network grew to over 140 in Q3. Our co sell motion continues to build the client pipeline, drive wins and strengthen retention as a long term growth leader. We are optimistic about our investment in and the increasing impact of NTAP's enhanced partner program to strengthen our capabilities across deal generation, technology, data and implementation. As partner certifications have increased 75% year over year, we are on a strong pace for our partner ecosystem and platform to become more of a material contribution to fiscal twenty twenty six demand generation and greater assistance on revenue realization.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

As we continue to focus on our margin and operational efficiencies, Q3 non GAAP gross margin was 77.9 percent, up from 75.1% in the prior year period, reflecting continued progress toward breakeven professional services gross margins and reducing the relative top line contribution from that business. Non GAAP operating expenses totaled $80,300,000 compared to $71,900,000 in the prior year period, reflecting our continued investment in our product led growth. Non GAAP operating income was $20,300,000 as compared to $11,200,000 in the prior year period. Non GAAP diluted EPS was $0.26 in the third quarter of fiscal twenty twenty five as compared to $0.14 in the prior year period. Free cash flow, which is defined as our cash flow from operations less capital expenditures, was $35,100,000 for the third quarter or 27% of total revenue.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

We exited the quarter with $323,200,000 of cash and cash equivalents. Turning to our key metrics, cloud ARR was up 28% year over year, while total ARR was up 19% year over year. Total remaining performance obligations were $621,500,000 up 33% year over year. We remain committed to executing our land and expand go to market model, which yielded a quarter end seven forty eight clients with annual recurring revenue of at least $100,000 up from $6.73 in the previous year. Our 100,000 ks plus ARR clients now comprise 28% of our total clients of over 2,650.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

Our 119% cloud net revenue retention rate in Q3 highlights the consistency with which we retain and steadily grow business with existing cloud clients. Now turning to our outlook. For the fourth quarter of fiscal twenty twenty five, we expect SaaS revenue of between $89,000,000 and 90,000,000 As these are newly provided revenue outlook metrics, we are also providing the implied year over year growth outlook of between 2627%. Total revenue in the range of 131,500,000.0 and $132,500,000 non GAAP operating income in the range of 41,000,000 and non GAAP EPS results of $0.22 to $0.24 using a diluted share count weighted for the quarter of approximately 85,000,000 common shares outstanding. For the full fiscal 2025, we expect SaaS revenue of between $330,800,000 and $331,800,000 As these are newly provided revenue outlook metrics, we also provide the implied year over year growth outlook of 28%.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

Total revenue in the range of $500,600,000 and $501,600,000 We also expect non GAAP operating income in the range of $74,300,000 and $75,300,000 and non GAAP EPS in the range of $0.88 to $0.90 using a diluted share count weighted for the fiscal year twenty twenty five of approximately 84,000,000 common shares outstanding. Thank you. And I'll now turn the call back to the operator.

Operator

Thank you. And as a reminder, to ask a question, simply press 11 on your telephone and wait for your name to be announced. Our first question comes from Alexey Gogolev with JPMorgan. Please proceed.

Alexei Gogolev
Alexei Gogolev
Executive Director at JPMorgan Chase

Hello, everyone. John, first question for you. A while, you've highlighted that much of your business is a cyclical. Can you talk about various indicators of that in your recent client conversations? And how much does deal activity drive growth of your business?

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

Sure. Thanks, Alexi. As you know, we bootstrapped the company all the way to IPO serving this traditionally underserved end market in this specific platform. The law firms, the accounting firms, the consulting firms, the investment banks, the private capital firms have a pretty steady demand to move to the cloud and to adopt AI. That fuels the company's consistent growth.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

The indicators that we watch, obviously, pipeline. We watch sales cycle. We watch the overall deployment time that helps folks to get to the next stage where they can expand further the platform for us. The macro discussion that's going on around tariffs and everything, obviously, all the firms are talking about, we have not seen indications in their operational digitalization move that's affected them. It's been very consistent demand through this period.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

And we've had that experience through previous economic cycles. We grew right through the two thousand eight recession and right through COVID. So overall, I think that the fundamental driver here is the need for these firms to catch up with the rest of the industries to finally get to the cloud, and they have an unusual opportunity to take advantage of AI given the type of work that they do.

Alexei Gogolev
Alexei Gogolev
Executive Director at JPMorgan Chase

Great. Thank you, John. And, Dave, a quick question for you about international revenue. What was the growth in constant currency, please?

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

Yes. Primarily USD. So it's it's almost one and the same.

Alexei Gogolev
Alexei Gogolev
Executive Director at JPMorgan Chase

Okay. Thank you.

Operator

Thank you. One moment for our next question, please. And it's from Parker Lane with Stifel. Please proceed.

Matthew Kikkert
Matthew Kikkert
Equity Research Associate at Stifel Financial

Hello. This is Matthew Kicker on for Parker. Thank you for taking my questions. So first, last quarter, you talked about solid traction selling DealCloud into the legal vertical. Would you just talk a little bit about if you saw any continuation of that activity there this quarter and the pipeline around that specific motion?

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

Thanks, Matthew. Yes. We are excited about what's happening with bringing DealCloud to legal as we are with the other industries as well. This was a question that the investors had when we came public, and we've been highlighting firms that have been taking up DealCloud in legal specifically to help answer that question. There's a lot of enthusiasm in these firms, particularly the large multipractice firms talking specifically about legal, who are looking to grow by winning new clients, but also through cross selling their services into their existing client base.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

There's also an underlying trend in legal where the firms grow through what they call lateral hiring. They bring in law firm partners from other firms and with them a group of clients. And a lot of the objective there is to bring that person's expertise into their existing client base or vice versa, bring the firm's variety of expertise into the clients they bring with them. So that all drives an interest in a much more industry specific business development approach, and HillCloud is purpose built for that style of business development. So there's a lot of demand and, in fact, replacing of legacy horizontal CRM systems that don't understand how these professionals actually go to market through their network.

Matthew Kikkert
Matthew Kikkert
Equity Research Associate at Stifel Financial

Okay. Got it. And then secondly, with the company leaning more into AI, you know, recently, how should we think about level of incremental spend related to those features as it relates to your margin expansion targets over the next two to three years?

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

Well, I think the overall point we would make is that we are doing applied AI, so we are not building data centers or running models that would drive a lot of CapEx or other expense. Dave, you can add some color here. But the opportunity for us is to take this next generation of AI technologies and apply them to specific applications based on our years of experience and expertise in this market where we can really help the firms achieve the value potential inherent in this generation of technology. We've done that through several generations of technology. And so that's why you hear us talking about intelligence applied in the brand overall and applied AI, consistent part of our story.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

And the firms really appreciate that because the general purpose systems, as exciting as they are, need some real attention in order for these firms to adopt specific applications that fit with their workflows, their personas, and the compliance needs in particular that these special firms have in the way that they use AI.

Matthew Kikkert
Matthew Kikkert
Equity Research Associate at Stifel Financial

Terrific. Thank you.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question comes from Alex Klar with Raymond James. Please proceed.

John Messina
John Messina
Research Associate at Raymond James

Hi. Thank you. This is John from the carry on for Alex this evening. So just wanted to touch on the the Amplify product launch event. There's some really interesting new functionality there, particularly with the the IntApp Assist use cases.

John Messina
John Messina
Research Associate at Raymond James

So just hoping, what can you tell us about the event in

John Messina
John Messina
Research Associate at Raymond James

terms of demand gen?

John Messina
John Messina
Research Associate at Raymond James

Is there any quantification in terms of pipeline build or customers reengaged after that? I know you gave the 400 customers attending count, but is there any way you could give us any quantifiable sense for that?

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

Thanks, John. We we're very excited about the way that Intepe Amplify came together. This was our second year of doing an event in New York in February since COVID, and we had tremendous turnout both in person and online. We launched a range of new capabilities across the platform, We talked about some of them in the prepared remarks there. Your question about the NTAP Assist specifically, one of the things we highlighted with NTAP Assist was our new origination capability.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

So this is AI that helps firms who are seeking out either new investors or new investment opportunities or new clients to use AI to pattern match opportunities that look a lot like the types of opportunities that they want to pursue and they've had success with over the past in the past. And the reception has been fantastic. We've had a lot of enthusiasm from the folks that were there, but also across our client base because we've gone out with the InteP Amplify story and all of the content of it and and been meeting with clients around the world. We're also going to do a second edition of Intept Amplify this year in London in May. So that whole program continues.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

The pipeline has had a strong response. It wasn't simply what you asked about with Intept Assist, but one of the things that we really saw incredible response was the next generation of our IntapTime product, which is very, well taken up in the marketplace. And now we're able to bring this next generation of AI and cloud capabilities into IntapTime, and there was a line out the door at Amplify for folks to see demos and talk to us about taking that next step. And then we highlighted several of the law firms that have successfully moved from on prem to the cloud and are very excited about the opportunity to take up this new AI driven in tap time. So several things came out of Amplify, and it's part of our overall program, as Dave mentioned, increased product R and D that is bringing more and more applied AI applications out for our clients.

John Messina
John Messina
Research Associate at Raymond James

Great. Thank you.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question comes from Terry Tillman with Truist Securities. Please proceed.

Robert Dee
Robert Dee
Equity Research Associate at Truist Securities

Great. Thanks for taking the questions. This is Bobby D on for Terry. Just a couple on term sheet. Firstly, can you expand on how the acquisition enhances your vertical strategy in Real Assets?

Robert Dee
Robert Dee
Equity Research Associate at Truist Securities

And what does early feedback from clients and prospects look like since the announcement? And then I have one follow-up. Thank you.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

Thanks, Bobby. We're very excited about joining forces with the Terms Sheet team. First of all, it's a tremendously expert group of people that really know the real assets industry and the software needs of the real assets industry to incredible depth. And that's always been a theme of our company is to bring the world's experts in each of these industries and their business operations and what makes them unique. So the team there is fantastic.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

They have developed some technologies that are really incredible that expand DealCloud's capabilities to serve additional personas in the real assets industry. As you all may recall, we announced our expansion into real assets a little over a year ago at the New York event in February '20 '20 '4. We had been led into that industry because our multi strategy asset manager clients wanted to use DealCloud across all of the asset classes that they invest in, both for fundraising and raising new funds as well as deploying capital and managing assets over their life. And we had made some important developments in DealCloud, like mapping technologies and some of the geographic information system integrations in order to enable those asset managers to do that. And as we did that, we found that we were in a better and better position to serve the broader community of real asset investors, the whole asset class, both investors, advisers, as well as operators.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

The term sheet team brings us technology to serve even more of those roles inside the real assets industry, which is very parallel. It's traditionally underserved. They have a unusual operating model that is not well suited to the traditional horizontal CRMs, and a lot of the technology that we're bringing from term sheet is going to allow us to penetrate further and further into that market. So it's a really exciting opportunity for us. And it's a big industry that needs cloud and AI technology and has not been able to succeed with that from the traditional horizontal systems historically.

Robert Dee
Robert Dee
Equity Research Associate at Truist Securities

Great. I appreciate the color. Just secondly, I'm curious, what are the key integration milestones for the Unified Solution with Term Sheet? And when should we expect initial go to market activity or financial contribution? Thank you very much.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

Thank you. Yes, we're already in the integration program. The teams are working together. We had a summit last week in New York. I was there for a board meeting, and we got to meet some of the team members.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

It's an exciting group that has a lot of energy to go win this market. Some of the integration milestones have to do with bringing together the brands, bringing together the product for the clients and real assets. As I mentioned in the script, we have some really positive feedback from firms who had looked at term sheet and looked at DealCloud and said this was a great move for Intap to make, and it validated their choice for us as an overall platform for their business. And we're getting a lot of encouragement from the clients to bring the products together as fast as we can. So we're excited about where this is going.

Robert Dee
Robert Dee
Equity Research Associate at Truist Securities

Thank you.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question is from George Kurosawa with Citi. Please proceed.

George Kurosawa
George Kurosawa
Equity Research Analyst at Citi

Hi. I'm on for Steve Anders. Thanks for taking the questions. When I'm looking across the metrics for the quarter, I did notice calculated billings came in a little below our estimate. I know that can be a lumpy metric.

George Kurosawa
George Kurosawa
Equity Research Analyst at Citi

So anything one time in nature or timing related that we should keep in mind when we're interpreting that metric?

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

Yeah. We've we've always narrated because of the noise, not only in billings and in some of the Doctor and so forth, just because of our fixed fee models with our partner ecosystem. We look more to our remaining performance obligation to give you kind of the forward leading indicators, which was very nice. But coming off the billings itself, you also have to remember we're coming off a high in FQ2. So there's going to be not only seasonality coming off of that as well as some timing.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

So there's nothing else to narrate on that specifically.

George Kurosawa
George Kurosawa
Equity Research Analyst at Citi

Okay. That's helpful. And then I guess a little related. I know I'm a quarter early here, but I did want to ask about if there's any kind of color you can give us early view into FY 2026 when we're trying to triangulate our models between RPO growth, ARR growth, billings growth. And then I guess on the margin side, whether you're thinking about FY 2026 as more of a margin harvesting year or more of an investment year?

George Kurosawa
George Kurosawa
Equity Research Analyst at Citi

Thank you.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

Well, we'll always continue to invest. So and we'll continue to drive leverage in our model as well. But it'd be far too early and probably not prudent for us to articulate anything as we get into 2026 at this point in time. With that said, we continue to work very hard on building up our demand gen. We continue to drive pipe across all of our leading platform of offerings.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

We like how that continues to develop, not only for this intra quarter, but then also for the back half of the year. And so as you've seen our continued investment, only in the go to market, but also in our product and engineering, you've seen with the advancement of our new product offerings with Amplify that John narrated on and you continue to also hear us talk about our partner ecosystem, which continues to drive co sell motions on that as well. So we like where things are being positioned. We think it's a good setup. But as far as quantifying anything heading into 2026, it'd be far too early for us to do that at this time.

George Kurosawa
George Kurosawa
Equity Research Analyst at Citi

Fair enough. Appreciate the color and thanks for taking the questions.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question comes from Brian Schwartz with Oppenheimer. Please proceed.

Brian Schwartz
Managing Director and Senior Analyst at Oppenheimer & Co. Inc.

Yes, hi. Thanks for taking my questions this afternoon. John, wanted to see if you could just give us an update in terms of the arc of improvements you're seeing from the sales reorganization that you did at the beginning of the year to target large accounts. I'm just wondering if you're starting to see some of the fruits from those changes you made at the beginning of the year or if that's still on the come for the business. And then I have a follow-up for David.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

Thanks, Brian. Yes, we did make an adjustment to the sales organization at the beginning of the fiscal year to move more resources to the large and larger end of our market, which we call enterprise accounts versus our mid market accounts. 70% of our TAM is in firms of that class. And there's a tremendous opportunity for us both to win new clients and to expand within our existing clients. And the team has done an excellent job of getting out and covering even deeper the accounts at that end of the market.

We've also had some very good success with a lot of the technology investment that we made over the past couple years to do things around scalability and interoperability and security and compliance for firms of that class. Obviously, larger deals, high 6 figure, 7 figure deals are slower from a sales cycle process, but they also pay off when they land. So we're seeing a very strong pipeline there, and I'm excited about the move that we made. It was well executed, and a lot of the team has developed pipeline there that's really in great shape. So it's an exciting time for us in the enterprise.

Thanks, John. And then the follow-up questions just on the model I have for David. Just one on the near term, just on the revenue guide in 4Q. What are you expecting from term sheet? And then as we think about calibrating our model, can you give us any directional advice on how you think stock based compensation should trend?

Brian Schwartz
Managing Director and Senior Analyst at Oppenheimer & Co. Inc.

It's just kind of varied as a percentage of revenue over the last two years. And just wondering anything that you could help us directionally with the model for fiscal twenty six. Thanks for taking my questions this afternoon.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

Yes. No, for sure. Term sheet for FQ4 is going to be very immaterial contribution. We can talk more about the contribution specifically for FY twenty six on our next earnings call. Then as far as SBC, that will continue to trend down as a percentage of revenue.

David Morton

And so you should continue to see that stair step down as it did this quarter.

Brian Schwartz

Thank you.

Thank you. One moment for our last question, please. It comes from Kouhi Ikeda with Bank of America. Please go ahead.

Koji Ikeda
Koji Ikeda
Analyst at Bank of America

Yeah. Hey, guys. Thanks so much for taking the questions. A couple from me here. I wanted to ask a question on SaaS revenue.

Koji Ikeda

And so when I look at the performance in the quarter, it looks like it came in slightly below the high end of the guide. And when I look at the last three quarters, the three quarters that you've given this guide, you beat the high end once and you were below the high end twice. And so just kind of wondering how we should be thinking about the performance of SaaS revenue, the visibility in SaaS revenue, and how we should be thinking about upside potential in this line item going forward.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

I think a lot of that code you just gets into when the deals have been exercised, not only signed, but then provided for. And so that gets into the timing of the quarter. And so anytime you come in with that level, I mean, obviously, the visibility, it comes into a month one, month two execution and revenue yield. And so, yeah, we that that range is very narrow, and obviously, there's pros and and and, puts and takes as to how we can overachieve that, on any given point in time. So, that's kind of the prudence we put into it.

David Morton
David Morton
CFO at Intapp

You know, obviously, we're trying to execute even more to get even more upside off of that, but, you know, it's always gonna be within that envelope. So hopefully, answers your question on that. Yep.

Koji Ikeda
Koji Ikeda
Analyst at Bank of America

No. That's super helpful. And maybe a follow-up here. I wanted to ask about how your customer conversations are going broadly in the uncertain macro environment, maybe split between professional services and financial services and take it from that view. But even if you could, you could get more granular if you like, you want to talk specifically about law firms versus consulting versus investment banking versus private equity.

Koji Ikeda

Any sort of deeper granularity in the demand environment would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

Sure, Koji. Thank you for the question. The private capital investment community pays our bill out of their management fee rather than out of any particular deal transaction fee. So we have a very stable and growing demand from those firms as they're trying to modernize their operation, compete with each other, adopt AI, pursue pursue origination opportunities in the marketplace, and very steady pipeline build from those firms, both new clients and expansion. I mentioned a few examples on the call, specifically to emphasize that firms standardize on DealCloud when they put it in.

John Hall
John Hall
Chairman & CEO at Intapp

They start with one group and expand over time, and that's so that they can continue to raise funds and deploy funds consistently and get the insights across all of that activity for the benefit of the management team and their overall firm strategy and fund strategy. On the adviser side, looking at accounting, consulting, the financial advisers like investment banks, and then the legal firms, they have had a very steady pull to digitalize their operation because they have not succeeded with the traditional horizontal system. So I gave several examples and try to do it each quarter of us replacing very well known horizontal CRM systems, because we have the purpose built platform that's getting more and more traction and credibility across even the very largest firms in the enterprise class. So I think it's an exciting vertical industry cloud category creation situation that we're in, where we're really following the example of pioneers like Fiva for each of their industry you know, those firms' industries to bring the next generation cloud and AI platform to these folks. We have said over the years that if there's any of our end markets that's more sensitive to the cycle, it might be the investment bankers themselves.

John Hall
John Hall

But we've had some very good and large wins. I gave an example with DNB in Norway where they actually did an acquisition and standardized on IntactealCloud across the whole firm as part of that. And that's really the awesome situation where people have really said this is the platform for our future. And so I think that's where we are at an important time in the overall industry's move to be more cloud based in their technology and more AI enabled and also compliant. A really important part of our overall story is the fact that our platform is built to be compliant with the unique requirements, both ethical professional and statutory regulatory for this industry, and it really sets our overall platform apart.

John Hall

So, you know, we've grown the company through direct client funding from for all these years because we actually understand the idiosyncrasies of how this very large underserved industry works, and and that's what's driving our business.
