AI Brief
Q3 FY26 earnings call · Nov 3, 2026TL;DR. AI-platform adoption is improving productivity, demand remains strong, third-quarter adjusted EPS and gross margin increased, and management expects revenue growth early in 2027. Fourth-quarter guidance calls for revenue of $68 million to $70 million, adjusted EPS of $0.39 to $0.41, and increased operating cash flow. Revenue and certain segment results declined year over year, AI-related decision-making remains elongated, SAP faces a difficult comparison, and calendar effects plus an approximately $1 million AI transition charge create fourth-quarter headwinds.

Dividends per share over the trailing 365 days by ex-date · buyback figures as last reported in SEC filings ("spent" derived as authorized − remaining; when several programs run concurrently, authorized is their combined total per the newest filing) · components shown separately — trailing-year buyback spend isn't tracked, so no combined shareholder yield is derived.
