Q: With the BK rollout and new deals, could you speak to the growth cadence over the next three quarters and if you're still targeting 20% ARR organic growth for the year? A: We are targeting 20% plus organic growth for the year. The second half will see more impact from these deals and the big POS rollout. Expect gradual growth in Q2, similar to Q1, with a pickup in Q3 and Q4. Significant EBITDA expansion is also expected towards the end of the year. Savneet Singh, CEO
Q: Can you provide more details on the five new logos of multiproduct wins and any ARR metrics around those wins? A: We won five new POS deals this quarter and similar amounts on the Engagement Cloud. I can't disclose specific deal sizes or logos due to contracts, but we are well-positioned to make impactful launches and bring in second products quickly. Savneet Singh, CEO
Q: Can you explain the slight reduction in reported ARR for Q3 and Q4 relative to last time? A: The reduction is due to FX adjustments, particularly from the business acquired last year, TASK, which has revenue primarily outside the U.S. Adjusting for constant currency, sequential ARR grew by $10 million. Savneet Singh, CEO and Bryan Menar, CFO
Q: Do you have visibility on organic ARR growth for next year, especially with the four Tier 1 wins? A: We don't have enough visibility for 2026 yet, but we feel good about the current trajectory. The value of deals is higher due to multiple product attachments, which is promising for future growth. Savneet Singh, CEO
Q: Can you update on the competitive environment and any changes in RFP processes? A: We are happy with our competitive position, especially in table service deals. We feel strong in product offerings, and our high win rate in Tier 1 deals reflects our competitive edge. Savneet Singh, CEO

The proposal, outlined in a committee memo, would require the CFPB to seek funding in the regular appropriations process rather than receive it from the Fed.

Yuba City scales back water tower plaza project amidst budget shortfall, rising inflation
YUBA CITY – Yuba City is scaling back on its vision to revitalize Water Tower Plaza as prices have soared far beyond what was estimated just a few years ago. The once $1 million plan to revamp the area beneath the iconic and historic water tower on Plumas Street has doubled in cost. "This is a classic example of rising inflation. The bid was 3-4 years ago, things have gone up and therefore we're having to scale back the project," said Dave Shaw, mayor of Yuba City. Yuba City has $1.1 million left from a state grant to create a community-oriented plaza beneath the water tower. "That price tag is now coming in at about $2.2 million. So we've gotten creative and we've been working with the contractor we awarded the contract to," Shaw said. "We gave ourselves options in case there was additional money or options to shave some things," said Josh Wolffe, a senior civil engineer with Yuba City. Shaving some things is what took the city back to the drawing board. They said they want to keep the character of the original plans while reducing the dollar amount. That will include things like replacing the amphitheatre grass with concrete, removing the play structure and removing the electronic signage. Yuba City "We're going to settle for something in the $1.7-$1.8 million range and we're still looking to add as many of those amenities as we possibly can, which includes the archway that will be right over Plumas Street welcoming people into our downtown," Shaw said. The price is still coming in roughly $600,000 over budget, but the mayor said it'll come out of their capital improvement project fund. "Which is allocated for street improvements and different things that this project qualifies for. But it helps us fill that gap without taking funds from the general fund," Shaw said. Despite budget setbacks, the city said it's still on schedule. "They've already started removing the trees, the contractor is here, everything is fenced off," Shaw said. "We're looking for this to be another gem of our downtown business area." If construction stays on track, people could be enjoying the new plaza as early as this fall or winter.
