Now before taking questions, we will begin with prepared remarks. With that, I would like to turn the call over to Seth.

Seth A. Ravin

Management

Thank you, Dean, and thank you, everyone, for joining us. Second quarter results. At our December 25 Investor Day, we shared our vision, strategy, and plan for evolving into an innovation company, and returning to growth and improved profitability. We provided fiscal year 26 guidance for achieving rule of 20 results. We have now delivered 4 consecutive quarters of improved growth metrics, in alignment with the vision, strategy, and plan we shared at the 2025 Investor Day. And we reiterate our rule of 20 guidance for fiscal 2020. Second quarter results demonstrate strong demand for our core Rimini support offering. Increasing adoption of our broader enterprise software service portfolio, and improving sales execution. Key transactions included household brands in many countries, and we sold across our solutions portfolio. During the quarter, we closed 14 new client transactions with over $1 million in TCV totaling $30 million and added 58 new logos. And for the first half of 2026, we closed 25 new client transactions with over 1 million in TCV totaling 62.9 million and added 100 new logos. Partnerships and alliances sourced or assisted with the closing of a meaningful number of sales transactions in the quarter. Also during the quarter, clients continued their adoption of Rimini Street's AI solutions that are helping them solve real business problems using innovative technology quickly and economically deployed over the top of their existing ERP software and releases. Without any need for ERP software upgrades, migrations, or replatforming. Our clients use the collective savings from switching to Rimini Street annual maintenance on their ERP software and avoided costly low value ERP upgrades and migrations to fund their Rimini AI ERP solution deployments. And they did not have to spend beyond their current IT budgets for the innovation. Driving increased growth and profitability. Organizations today are under increasing pressure to innovate and modernize their enterprise systems. While managing cost, risk, and disruption. Many are finding that large scale ERP replacements are expensive, time consuming, and often fail to deliver the expected business value. Real innovation is not about a software vendor's next.ai release. it is about reducing total operating costs. Improving profitability, and enhancing competitive advantage. We help organizations achieve these goals by avoiding unnecessary ERP software upgrades, migration, or replatforming, and instead deploying Rimini Street's innovative Agentic AI ERP solutions over the top of existing ERP software to deliver faster, better, cheaper, and more agile ERP process execution. Funded within the current IT budget. As we continue to expand sales and cross sales of our entire service portfolio, our focus remains on enabling clients to extract more value from their existing systems and achieving innovation and modernization that lowers total cost of operations, improves profitability, and enhances competitive advantage. Leadership in AgenTeq AI ERP. We are helping more and more clients set a new vision, technical, and functional path forward from their current vendor ERP software release. A path that does not require any return to the vendor for a future upgrade or migration to their current ERP software release in order to achieve innovation or modernization.

We guide clients through this path using our proprietary improvement 3-step methodology called the Rimini SmartPath. Our methodology is being used by clients to self fund and accelerate innovation.

Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, we will now begin the Q&A session. Should you wish to cancel your request, please press star followed by the 2. If you are using a speakerphone, please lift the handset before pressing any keys. 1 moment please for your first question. Thank you. And your first question comes from the line of Richard Baldry from ROTH Capital Partners. Please go ahead.

Richard Baldry

Analyst · ROTH Capital Partners. Please go ahead

Thanks. Could you talk about how much maybe to date and how much ahead AI should be able to impact your cost model? I am sorry. We are hearing from people it is not just faster development or lower service cost, but things like virtual sales development reps are improving sales efficiencies and things. So where are we at? How much could that impact your adjusted EBITDA margins over the long term? Thanks.

Seth A. Ravin

Management

Sure, Richard. I think internally, when you talk about internal usage and deployment of AI, we, like everybody else, are looking for good use cases. We are using it for sales. We are using it to gather broad amounts of information about prospects very quickly and present it in a way that sales reps can see what is happening at a prospect before they ever pick up the phone and call them. that is certainly a huge improvement in time and productivity. We also, of course, use tools like Clari, which are excellent in the sales side. On top of Salesforce to be able to understand and predict close rates, and it is very accurate, in fact. What we have seen over the last couple years that we have used it. And so we deploy tools in that part of the pipeline management and it also allows us to aggregate very large views of what is happening when you have sellers all over the world, working different types of transactions. It makes it much easier to manage at a very large level. And, of course, we are using AI and finance We are continuing to deploy those items. And so I think overall, all look at the more thoughtful way that we are using it, not just throwing AI all over the place. I think that, yes, we will achieve a meaningful reduction in total operating cost and more leverage as we move forward in the coming years.

Richard Baldry

Analyst · ROTH Capital Partners. Please go ahead

And can you talk a little bit about any color you can give us on sort of top of the funnel, prospect changes? it is been maybe a year now, I guess, since the big settlement with Oracle. Sort of curious how that top of the funnel growth is going whether it is mostly driven by sales headcount increases or whether there is really some natural growth of the addressable market or the willingly addressable market, I guess, could look at it. Thanks.

Seth A. Ravin

Management

Well, I think you are looking at a few different things. 1, there is no doubt that our change in the world of litigation, our change in the world, putting AI services and the evolution into being an innovation company have driven a lot more customers to us. I think there are other elements. Number 1, Richard, the fact that we are now giving customers a path where they can leave the vendor's maintenance forego upgrades, and go on a path that has innovation, and modernization in it where they do not have to think about a potential return to the vendor's road map at some point down the line has been a game changer, I think, in terms of overall demand generation to the point you could say there are deals that we lost years ago where customers said we love the support, we know we are going to get better service, but we are just afraid to leave the vendor's path because we think we might have to go back someday. Now that is changing and those customers, we have several of them that have signed with us because now they are confident they do not need to make that return trip to the vendor, the boomerang effect that some refer to. And I think that is the single biggest driver of the top of the funnel. And I think there is some other macro issues. I mean, with SAP, setting deadlines, we have all sorts of release deadlines happening in the software world, and those deadlines are driving customers to seek other alternatives to extend the life of their products because they are not ready to make change. They do not see the value. And they feel like they are being pressured from every angle. Those things combined, I think, are creating a much higher top of the funnel experience.

Richard Baldry

Analyst · ROTH Capital Partners. Please go ahead

And last for me, beyond the balance sheet, you knocked out $10 million of debt ahead of schedule. You have been pretty steadily kinda taking that number down. How do you think about the flexibility on your balance sheet and where best to allocate capital? You have got a good amount of cash. You could take out the debt overnight if you wanted to. Arguably, shares are undervalued. You could do buybacks or, you know, as M&A an interesting? How do you view the best use of the balance sheet flexibility you have now?

Michael L. Perica

Management

Yeah. Richard, Michael here. As you noted, right, we have been heavily concentrated on 1 of our 2 levers we have got identified on capital return, the debt repayment so far this year. Last 2 quarters of last year, the lower amounts, share repurchases, We continue to evaluate, but looking forward, we may see a shift in how we allocate sitting here today. So, still the 2 levers. But may see a shift moving forward.

And your next question comes from the line of Andrew Sherman from TD Cowen. Please go ahead.

Andrew Sherman

Analyst · Andrew Sherman from TD Cowen. Please go ahead

Great. Hey, guys. Thanks, and nice quarter. Seth, I was not sure if I heard a whole lot on the go to market side in the prepared remarks. How's the sales hiring? Where do you stand versus plan on that? And how are some of the newer reps ramping to productivity?

Seth A. Ravin

Management

Thanks, Andrew. I think we are doing okay. I think we have we have had a little bit more turnover than I would like in some of the sales reps, and I think part of that was we have been readjusting the skill sets that we are looking for. I think like everybody else, our folks now have to talk about AI; they have to talk about innovation in different ways with a lot more technology than they did even 2, 3 years ago. And I do think some of the reps are not going to make that turn, and I think that is not just true for us. I think you are gonna see that across technology. But we are making some changes in the force, and I think some people who have more aptitude towards being able to discuss technology in ways that business people can understand, are doing better. Those who could not make that turn were not doing as well. And so we are our sales numbers, the total number of sellers is increasing. We are committed to, again, growing our sales force. We talked about that on the last couple calls. Where we were feeling optimistic enough and bullish enough about the business to begin the aggressive hiring of sellers, but not just sellers. A lot of different sales support. We had to build out a new AI support team. We had to build out new capabilities as we talked about the new service launches. Those had to come in, and we had to retrain sellers as well. So overall, I think the go to market is working, for the sellers. I think the go to market in the alliances and channels is another very big part. As you know, we expect a substantial amount of our pipe to come from indirect channel So we continue to work with our friends at ServiceNow and many other of our partners to build out more pipeline into that operation to reduce our total, cost of sale and increase our leverage on sales. that is great. Thanks.

Andrew Sherman

Analyst · Andrew Sherman from TD Cowen. Please go ahead

And then, Michael, just on the Q3 guide and the implied Q4, just what would help us get a little bit more confident in the acceleration there? I know some of it is easier comps. The RPO ex PeopleSoft did slow down a little bit, but anything you can give us on the confidence or the pipeline heading into the second half that will help us with the second half numbers. That would be great. Thanks.

Michael L. Perica

Management

Sure, Andrew. And highlighting as Seth noted, we outlined that the building of our positive year over year metrics in 4 quarters in a row Our retention rate, a key area that has the 9 in front of it. We also highlighted relative to billings, renewal timing has impacted the quarter over quarter. But putting all of this together, we are still seeing healthy meaning double digits plus, new bookings growth year over year puts us in a strong position where again, we have reiterated guidance, and we feel we are in a very good position to achieve what we have laid out for the second half of the year.

And your next question comes from the line of Jeff Van Rhee from Craig Hallum. Please go ahead.

Jeff Van Rhee

Analyst · Jeff Van Rhee from Craig Hallum. Please go ahead

Great. Yes, thanks for taking the question. So Seth, on the European Commission decision, about SAP's anti competitive practices seems dead spot on in terms of forcing SAP to stop the punitive measures they were imposing on customers and allow them to choose third party support would seem to have some pretty direct ramifications for you and possibly even be kind of a shot across the bow for Oracle's behavior. Just any thoughts on that? Seen any impact? Obviously, it is very recent, but just love a little feedback there.

Seth A. Ravin

Management

Sure, Jeff. I think that when you look at the decision, the agreement in Europe with SAP, I think this is really bigger than SAP. I think this is more along the lines that software licensing is getting extremely complex. We are connecting systems all over the place. All of us are. This is the new world. it is an integrated environment. How we integrate, what we are allowed to move, data moving between places, licenses get brought together, they get separated. Companies are merged. Companies are separated. And a lot of the points that were raised and agreed upon between SAP and the European Union really were around some of these challenges that companies have with their licenses and what we might consider to be fair or unfair practices. They are not uncommon. it is just that these challenges are really impacting people's ability to run their business. And I think that they are good. I think that the decisions, of course, they are not everything we all would want, but I do think that there is positives in there. For example, what I was just saying about the ability, if a company splits apart, and has to split its licenses or has to merge and comes together with another company, there are provisions about not being able to overcharge for the cost of that merger, not being able to hold people hostage around taking things apart and moving them back together. And, yes, that does have downward downstream impact on people like Rimini Street and other third party providers and other IT providers who will see this as a big benefit because it increases the overall competitive environment and allows customers much more choice.

Jeff Van Rhee

Analyst · Jeff Van Rhee from Craig Hallum. Please go ahead

Mhmm. Yeah. I would think it would be obviously, very positive. And let me revisit the billing just real quickly. I understand the lumpiness, but, sort of back to overall momentum in pipeline. Dean, obviously, you have had very steady build in that overall momentum over the last handful of -- is there any more quantification you can give on the scope size growth in the pipeline around, again, getting that conviction in second half billings?

Seth A. Ravin

Management

Yes. I think, again, that is why we felt that reiterating guidance that we put out there at the end of 25 was important. We feel good about it. I think as Michael mentioned, in his prepared remarks, we have pulled forward a bit of cost. We said that at the end of Q1 as well. that is why you saw sales cost to be a bit higher than last year We decided to forward load some of those costs, but we wanted to reiterate the guidance because it is important for people to understand that we are committed to the top line and bottom line. Now this is not an easy time, Jeff. As you know, there is a lot of investment being made in AI, in bringing new people in, tools, technologies, launching new products. That drives up sales and marketing costs as you get those launched. it is also driving up the COGS. that is why even though we moved up to a 60, we said we just wanted to make sure there was a 6 in front of the gross margin. Because we are having to increase costs on the back end to support all these new products. it is a balancing act when you are in growth mode, and you are trying to deliver top line and bottom line number growth. So I think we are balancing it well. I feel good about where we are. And the top line, we keep seeing that pipeline grow. We have seen double digit growth in the pipeline. Year over year. So we are feeling good about what we are seeing. We are feeling optimistic about the numbers, that are flowing through. The close rate, for example, we are hitting 30% pipe close rates. Those are very, very good numbers. And that means we have a solid pipe. it is a clean pipe. And we have good visibility as to what is coming down the pipe. So I feel that we are really in a good place as we give our reiterated guidance.

Jeff Van Rhee

Analyst · Jeff Van Rhee from Craig Hallum. Please go ahead

Yeah. You kind of preempted a little bit of my follow on there. I just want to clarify. On the sales and marketing expenses, it is ticked up 34%, 35%, 37%. I think we are 37.5% this quarter on non GAAP. Is this the peak in non GAAP as a percent of revenue? Or do we still see that tick higher through the remainder of this year and then comes down in 2027?

Seth A. Ravin

Management

I think we are at around the peak. You know, there is still some pieces we are putting in place, but we launched a brand new service, our, Rimini Govern for AI today, which is a big service. So there will still be a little bit of marketing push that goes with all those new products and services. But as a percentage of revenue, the revenue, as you know, on a ratable basis, revenue will always follow the expense when you are in a growth mode. For most people who do not know, our average first year contract is essentially a 15-month contract, 3 months of onboarding. So you are amortized over 15 months, and you sign a contract. We start delivering service the next day usually, which means we have to hire the resources, take the expense immediately long before the revenue starts to add in on the ratable. Scale. That is the challenge in the growth model that we are balancing right now.

Jeff Van Rhee

Analyst · Jeff Van Rhee from Craig Hallum. Please go ahead

Got it. Maybe 1 last quick 1 if I could. On the, partner front, I guess this is either for either of you, the talked about the momentum with the partners. Can you just give any quantification there? Like what percent of pipeline at this point or what percent of new bookings are being driven through those partner relationships maybe versus what it was, say, a year ago?

Seth A. Ravin

Management

Well, I definitely think we are seeing increases. We are doing million dollar deals with partners which is great. We are not if I were to use the old walk, jog, run approach, I would say we are in the jog approach. We are getting off and running, but as everyone knows, we are a little more immature in our partner program, based on age than a lot of other companies because we started later in the partner world. But we are making progress We are absolutely, working with dozens of partners on a global basis and then we are really solidifying around our top global strategic partners, and we will have more announcements around that very soon. Sounds good.

Thank you. And your next question comes from the line of Alex Fuhrman from Lucid Capital Markets Please go ahead.

Alex Fuhrman

Analyst · Alex Fuhrman from Lucid Capital Markets Please go ahead

Hey, guys, thanks very much for taking my question. It looks like the last couple of years you lost about 30 clients or so. In the second quarter before getting back to net client acquisition in the back half of the year. This year, you actually gained a few in the second quarter. Can you talk a little bit about what is driving that? Has that been some of the sales pipeline and just moving some of those customers through the funnel that you mentioned, or is that maybe some of the little sequential uptick in retention starting to show in the numbers a little bit more?

Seth A. Ravin

Management

I think it is actually a combination of all. First, you got the retention. Component. The second 1 is we have been very focused on new logo acquisition. As you noted, back in the last couple years, we were losing clients, net loss, in the second and the end of the second quarter usually. We turn that around by focusing in exclusively on new logo acquisition. So we put programs in place And interestingly enough, in The Americas, we went to a separated model where we have hunters and farmers, and the hunters are only focused on new logo acquisition while the farmers manage all the existing clients and focus on the cross sell and the retention, of the account on the renewal front. And that has yielded, especially in North America, significant growth in new logo acquisition. Of course, we all know there is no perfect sales model. that is why we all change them around as we evolve our businesses. But this model has worked very well for Rimini over the last couple years. We can see the results.

Brian Kinstlinger

Analyst · Brian Kinstlinger from Alliance Global Partners. Please go ahead

Hi. This is Shrey. I am in for Brian. During your last analyst day, you highlighted that there were 26 customers testing out your, Agentic AI ERP solution with ServiceNow. Can you provide an update with account of how many customers have moved into production? With this new solution and how many are currently still in the test phase?

Seth A. Ravin

Management

Oh, great. Well, we have several of them that have moved into And in fact, there is a Rimini catalog you can get on our website and a lot of those customers are in there with case studies and quotes. And so it is been a very, very interesting progress, as we have rolled these solutions out. We have learned a lot about the technology. We have learned a lot about how to solve very specific business issues and I think this has really allowed us to move into position to be the best at the Agentic AI ERP, solutions in the world. I feel very strongly about that. And I think that we are watching a good number of them already in production. I think a good number of them are already working to expand. Some of them are already working on next projects, multiple next projects. So I think we could declare it a very big success. And we are now expanding that project out even more because we have the new solutions and the new Rimini governance solutions. That we have clients who have been waiting to deploy.

Thank you. That is that is helpful. And then as a quick follow-up, are you able to quantify the pipeline for your ServiceNow partnership? And how much of it is existing customers versus brand new customers?

Seth A. Ravin

Management

Well, the pipeline has certainly been a combination from both of us. Which is what we wanted. Of course, ServiceNow would love access to our customers. We would love access to theirs. We actually share, I believe, over 1 thousand customers together. That both our services already. So it is already very much a situation where we can both come in and work to expand our footprints together. So we are very, very pleased about where we can go on that side of the house. And I think you are gonna see a lot of that with our other partners out there such as T-Systems and many others. Got it.
