What Went Well and What Went Wrong
What Went Well
- Robust cloud growth and mix shift: Cloud ARR $401.4M (+30% y/y), 80% of total ARR; SaaS revenue $97.5M (+27% y/y) with non-GAAP gross margin up to 77.7% .
- Partner-driven enterprise momentum: Over half of top-10 Q1 wins jointly executed with Microsoft; Microsoft often fronted Azure investment dollars to accelerate deals; co-sell influence rising .
- GenAI adoption pulling platform: New Intapp Time Horizon AI features drove strong client engagement; early adopters added Intapp Assist to expand compliant time recording; strong attach and cross-sell motion drove cloud NRR to 121% .
Quoted management: “Of our 10 largest Q1 wins, more than half were jointly executed with Microsoft. In several of those, Microsoft fronted Azure investment dollars to help accelerate the deals.”
What Went Wrong
- GAAP profitability headwinds: GAAP operating loss widened to $(14.5)M and GAAP net loss to $(14.4)M due to elevated go-to-market investments and stock-based compensation; non-GAAP mitigated via exclusions .
- Professional services softness and margin pressure: Services revenue down 8% y/y; management expects margin pressure to moderate in the back half as partner ecosystem scales .
- Calculated billings volatility remains a watch item; management expects smoothing over 6–9 months as license/services dynamics and ASC 606 timing effects normalize .
