    Questions to Ask Management

    1. Given that AI native customers accounted for 6% of your ARR and contributed 4 percentage points to your year-over-year growth, how are you planning to manage the potential revenue volatility from these customers as they optimize their usage and seek better terms?

    2. Your remaining performance obligations (RPO) growth has decelerated, and billings growth is affected by timing differences; can you provide more clarity on how these trends impact your long-term revenue visibility and what steps you're taking to address investor concerns about the trajectory?

    3. With the introduction of your OnCall product potentially competing with established players like PagerDuty, how do you plan to differentiate your offering, and what is your strategy to gain market share in the incident response and automation space?

    4. As you expand into security and service management with products like cloud SIEM and OnCall, how are you balancing investment in these newer areas with the need to maintain strong growth and margins in your core observability business?

    5. While enterprise customers are showing stronger usage growth, some customers remain cost-conscious and are seeking efficiencies; how are these dynamics affecting your net revenue retention rates, and what strategies are you employing to drive expansion within your existing customer base?
