Before I begin, I want to briefly welcome Asaf, who recently joined as CFO, and Andy, who returned to Kornit to lead our capital markets activities. Let me turn directly to our business performance. When we entered 2025, we set clear and measurable targets for the year. We set out to move the company back to revenue growth while at the same time transitioning the business towards a more recurring ARR model, a shift that naturally changes near-term revenue timing as we build stronger, longer-term revenue foundation. We also committed to delivering positive EBITDA and generating positive cash flow from operations, all while capturing a meaningful share of bulk apparel production and driving impression growth across our installed base.

Speaker #7: We also committed to delivering positive EBITDA and generating positive cash flow from operations all while capturing meaningful share of bulk apparel production and driving impression growth across our install base.

Speaker #7: I'm very pleased to share that we achieved all of these objectives. Q4 marked a solid finish to the year. Our customers had a successful peak season reflected in a strong double-digit impression growth in Q4 year-over-year and 11% growth for the full year, reaching 243 million impressions.

Ronen Samuel: I'm very pleased to share that we achieved all of these objectives. Q4 marked a solid finish to the year. Our customers had a successful peak season reflected in a strong double-digit impression growth in Q4 year over year and 11% growth for the full year, reaching 243 million impressions. This growth was driven by higher utilization across our install base and an increased adoption of digital production for the longer runs. We delivered Q4 revenues of $58.9 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $5.5 million, both at the upper end of our guidance. We also generated approximately $11 million in operating cash flow in Q4, making our ninth consecutive quarter of positive operating cash generation. For the full year 2025, we moved back to growth, achieved positive Adjusted EBITDA, and generated strong operating cash flow of approximately $24 million.

Speaker #7: At the same time, we continued executing the transition towards a more recurring business model. We exited the year with approximately $25 million in ARR from our AIC program, this ARR is typically supported by multi-year customer commitments usually around five years providing strong revenue visibility and durability.

Ronen Samuel: At the same time, we continued executing the transition towards a more recurring business model. We exited the year with approximately $25 million in ARR from our AIC program. This ARR is typically supported by multi-year customer commitments, usually around five years, providing strong revenue visibility and durability. In 2025, AIC contributed $15.2 million in revenues and continued to scale as adoption expands. Together, these results reflect disciplined execution and meaningful progress in building a more recurring, predictable business model. One of the most important drivers of this progress is the accelerating shift from screen production to digital. We clearly see a shift of impression into longer runs and incremental bulk apparel production moving to digital. Over 40% of our system deals in 2025, including Q4, came from net new customers, many of them traditional screen printers adopting digital production for the first time.

Ronen Samuel: For example, in Europe, TopQ in Poland, one of the leading screen printers in the region, recently ordered an Apollo system for bulk apparel production under our AIC model. This represents a strategic move as they began transitioning part of their high-volume screen production to digital to improve flexibility, reduce labor dependency, and respond faster to customer demand. In the U.S., midsize screen printers are adopting our Atlas MAX platform to replace screen production for the first time. Customers like Cedar Stream, a U.S. apparel decoration company focused on high-volume production, and Real Thread, a U.S.-based custom apparel and merchandise producer serving brands, creators, and e-commerce customers, are moving bulk apparel impressions to digital to gain speed, consistency, and efficiency. At the same time, we are seeing clear expansion of bulk apparel impressions from existing Kornit customers, reinforcing the strengths of our value proposition and the business outcomes we deliver.

In parallel, our Atlas MAX family continues to gain traction among small and midsize screen printers, taking the first step into digital production. We are also seeing encouraging momentum in our customized design segment, with gross momentum returning across several of our key accounts. This momentum is driven by higher utilization of existing systems as well as customer adding capacity through upgrading to Atlas MAX Plus and by deploying additional systems to support growing demand.

Ronen Samuel: We expect 2026 to be a stronger year for our roll-to-roll business, both in the footwear, technical, and functional apparel segments, supported by new technologies and capabilities we plan to introduce later in the year that will further expand applications and drive future growth. We are entering 2026 with a growing pipeline of opportunities and much better visibility for the year. Today, more than 83% of our revenues are recurring or highly predictable. We expect low single-digit revenue growth in 2026, reflecting our deliberate decision to accelerate the transition toward the AIC model. Alongside this, we expect stronger profitability expansion and continued positive cash flow from operation while ARR continues to grow through additional AIC system deployments. As more customers move to AIC, our recurring revenue-based growth enhances visibility and strengthens the long-term scalability of our business.

Speaker #3: A confirmation tone will indicate your line is in the question queue. You may press star two if you would like to remove your question from the queue.

Speaker #3: For participants using speaker equipment, it may be necessary to pick up your handset before pressing the star keys. The first question is from Greg Palm from Craig Hallam.

Speaker #3: Please go

Speaker #4: Yeah, thanks. I wanted to start with a little bit of color on peak season Ronen. I think you gave us impressions are all double digits, but just can you give us a little bit more color on how it went and specifically performance of Apollo?

Greg Palm: Yeah, thanks. Wanted to start with a little bit of color on peak season. Ronen, I think you gave us impressions of double digits, but just, can you give us a little bit more color on how it went and specifically performance of Apollo?

Speaker #1: Yeah. Thank you, Greg. So first of all, on the peak season, it's indeed was a strong peak season for our customer. And the best indicator for a strong peak season is impression growth.

Ronen Samuel: Yeah. Thank you, Greg. So first of all, on the peak season, it indeed was a strong peak season for our customer. The best indicator for a strong peak season is impression growth. Impression growth for Q4 was a very strong double-digit. Specifically, it's close to the year of when we're looking at 12 months for the full year is 11% growth of impression. Now, when we're looking from where is it coming, those nice growths of impression, it's coming from three main areas. One, we see major growth coming from customers that actually are on the AIC program. We see utilization on this program, on those systems, relative high versus machines that are on CapEx. So major growth is coming from the AIC on impression. The second thing is major growth is coming from the screen market.

Speaker #1: And impression growth for Q4 was a very strong double digit. And specifically, it's close to the year, when we're looking at 12 months for the full year, it's 11% growth of impression.

Speaker #1: Now, when we're looking from where is it coming, those nice growth of impression, it's coming from three main areas. One, we see major growth coming from customers that actually on the AIC program.

Ronen Samuel: One, we see major growth coming from customers that actually are on the AIC program. We see utilization on this program, on those systems, relative high versus machines that are on CapEx. So major growth is coming from the AIC on impression. The second thing is major growth is coming from the screen market.

Speaker #1: We see utilization on this program on those systems relative high versus machines that are on on CAPEX. So major growth is coming from the AIC.

Speaker #1: On impression. The second thing is major growth is coming from the screen market. We start to see a shift of long runs, bulk apparel coming into cornet systems.

Ronen Samuel: We start to see a shift of long runs, bulk apparel coming into Kornit systems, and there we see really nice growth of impressions. And the fourth growth is connected to your question, is about the Apollo. And Apollo is really a machine or a system that's driving really high volume. We had a very strong peak season for our customers leveraging the Apollo. We worked very hard, and what we found out that in Q4, when it was the peak, the uptime of the system was more than 90% across the board. So very high utilization, very high stability of the system. Customer satisfaction is super, super high on the Apollo. Actually, in 2025, 40% of the existing customers that are using Apollo order a second machine or more on the Apollo.

Speaker #1: And there we see a really nice growth of impression. And the fourth growth is connected to your question is about the Apollo. And Apollo is really a machine or a system that's driving really high volume.

Speaker #1: We had a very strong peak season for our customers leveraging the Apollo. We worked very hard and what we found out is that in Q4, when it was the peak, the uptime of the system was more than 90% across the board.

Ronen Samuel: We worked very hard, and what we found out that in Q4, when it was the peak, the uptime of the system was more than 90% across the board. So very high utilization, very high stability of the system. Customer satisfaction is super, super high on the Apollo. Actually, in 2025, 40% of the existing customers that are using Apollo order a second machine or more on the Apollo.

Speaker #1: So, very high utilization, very high stability of the system. Customer satisfaction is super, super high on the Apollo. Actually, in 2025, 40% of the existing customers that are using Apollo order a second machine or more on the Apollo.

Speaker #1: We can see many newcomers new screen printers, big size screen printers that are taking for the first time cornet and specifically the Apollo. And Apollo is where we see as I mentioned before, the long run.

Ronen Samuel: We can see many newcomers, new screen printers, big-size screen printers that are taking for the first time Kornit and specifically the Apollo. Apollo is where we see, as I mentioned before, the long run. So we see customers running on the Apollo 500 copies, but also 5,000 copies. So it's fantastic. And of course, there are customers that are also using the Apollo for very short runs, for one-off, but we see more and more longer runs coming for the Apollo. Other than that, what I recommend for all of you is to come to Connection. As I mentioned, in the Connection, we are going to demonstrate also the Apollo, and there will be some game-changer applications and additional capabilities on the Apollo that we will show for the first time at Connection. Apollo by itself is a game-changer for the industry.

Speaker #1: So we see customer running on the Apollo 500 copies, but also 5,000 copies. So it's fantastic. And of course, there are customers that are also using the Apollo for very short runs, for one-off.

Speaker #1: But we see more and more longer runs coming for the that, what I recommend for all of you is to come to connection. As I mentioned in the connection, we are going to demonstrate also the Apollo.

Ronen Samuel: Other than that, what I recommend for all of you is to come to Connection. As I mentioned, in the Connection, we are going to demonstrate also the Apollo, and there will be some game-changer applications and additional capabilities on the Apollo that we will show for the first time at Connection. Apollo by itself is a game-changer for the industry.

Speaker #1: And there will be some game changer applications and additional capabilities on the Apollo that we will show for the first time at connection. Apollo by itself is a game changer for the

Speaker #1: industry. Yeah.

Greg Palm: Yeah. Look forward to that event. As you look back on 2025, I mean, what do you view as the most major accomplishments? I know it's a pretty busy year on a lot of fronts, but talk to us about that, and how does that guide some of your priorities this year and beyond.

Speaker #4: Look forward to that event. As we look back on 2025, I mean, what do you view as the most major accomplishments? I know it's a pretty busy year and a lot of fronts.

Speaker #4: But talk to us about that and how does that guide some of your priorities this year and beyond?

Speaker #1: Well, so 2025 was very busy, as you mentioned. It was a transition year. But it's a year that, when we're looking back, it's a year that we flipped the page.

Ronen Samuel: Well, so 2025 was very busy, as you mentioned. It was a transition year, but it's a year that when we're looking back, it's a year that we flipped the page. We're a different company right now. When we started 2025, we set clear targets, very measurable targets, and we deliver on them. I will start saying a few of those targets and what we have achieved. First of all, we moved back to growth. So finally, we are growing. And this growth is coming in parallel in transition of the business model into a more recurring model through the ARR and AIC, which is really gaining traction, which, as you know, moving to this model has some short-term impact but has a major positive long-term or mid-term, long-term impact to the business. We ended the year with significant ARR of approximately $25 million of ARR.

Speaker #1: We had different company right now. When we started 2025, we said clear targets. Very measurable targets. And we deliver on them. I will start saying a few of those targets and what we have achieved.

Speaker #1: First of all, we moved back to growth. So finally, we are growing. And this growth is coming in parallel with the transition of the business model into a more recurring model through the ARR and AIC.

Ronen Samuel: So finally, we are growing. And this growth is coming in parallel in transition of the business model into a more recurring model through the ARR and AIC, which is really gaining traction, which, as you know, moving to this model has some short-term impact but has a major positive long-term or mid-term, long-term impact to the business. We ended the year with significant ARR of approximately $25 million of ARR.

Speaker #1: Which is really gaining traction. Which, as you know, moving to this model has some short-term impact. But as a major positive mid-term or long-term, it will have an impact to the business.

Speaker #1: We ended the year with significant ARR of approximately 25 million dollars of ARR. For the full year, we recognized 50 million dollars of AIC.

Ronen Samuel: For the full year, we recognized $50 million of AIC. This is a growth versus 2024 from $3 million to $15 million, more than 300% growth. Those ARR and AIC or ARR contracts, you need to remember that are multi-year contracts with our customers. So traditionally, or most of those contracts are five-year contracts, which provide predictability, consistency, and stability to our business. Also, we deliver positive EBITDA, which is super important. We generate very healthy cash from operations for the full year and also for Q4. The main focus, which I also discussed it on a prepared remark, is really penetrating the screen market. I would say that we ended the year with really penetrating some key customers in the screen market. We start to see a real shift of major screen printers into digital, leveraging our technology.

Speaker #1: This is a growth versus 2024 from $3 million to $50 million—more than 300% growth. And those ARR and AIC, or ARR contracts, you need to remember that are multi-year contracts with our customers.

Speaker #1: So, traditionally, most of those contracts are five-year contracts, which provide predictability, consistency, and stability to our business. Also, we deliver positive EBITDA, which is super important.

Speaker #1: We generate very healthy cash from operation for the full year and also for Q4. And the main focus of which I also discussed it on prepared remark is really penetrating the screen market.

Ronen Samuel: We generate very healthy cash from operations for the full year and also for Q4. The main focus, which I also discussed it on a prepared remark, is really penetrating the screen market. I would say that we ended the year with really penetrating some key customers in the screen market. We start to see a real shift of major screen printers into digital, leveraging our technology.

Speaker #1: And I would say that we ended the year with really penetrating some key customer in the screen market. We start to see a real shift of major screen printer into digital leveraging our technology.

Speaker #1: And today, we are in positions that we have lighthouse almost all around the world. And we are starting to cause the cousin, the biggest opportunity in front of Kornit is really in the screen market.

Ronen Samuel: Today, we are in a position that we have lighthouses almost all around the world, and we are starting to cause the conversion. The biggest opportunity in front of Kornit is really in the screen market, and we feel that now we can start to scale on top of that. The screen is really where the long runs and the impressions are being driven. I talked about the impressions for the full year. We grew 11%, but we saw it from better utilization of the systems of our installed base, which is very important. We can see some of our key customers that now need more capacity, or they are upgrading it to Atlas MAX Plus or adding additional systems, which is a very, very strong signal.

Speaker #1: And we feel that now we can start to scale on top of that. And the screen is really where the long runs and the impression is being driven.

Speaker #1: I talked about the impression for the full year. We grew 11%. But we saw it from better utilization of the systems of our installed base, which is very important.

Ronen Samuel: We grew 11%, but we saw it from better utilization of the systems of our installed base, which is very important. We can see some of our key customers that now need more capacity, or they are upgrading it to Atlas MAX Plus or adding additional systems, which is a very, very strong signal in Apollo, as I mentioned before, this is a major milestone that we have achieved to see the stability, to see that customers are buying the second, third, and even more systems.

Speaker #1: We can see some of our key customers that now need more capacity, or they are upgrading it to Atlas MAX Plus, or adding an additional system, which is a very, very strong signal.

Speaker #1: Apollo as I mentioned before, this is a major milestone that we have achieved to see the stability, to see that customer are buying the second and third and even more systems.

Ronen Samuel: Apollo, as I mentioned before, this is a major milestone that we have achieved to see the stability, to see that customers are buying the second, third, and even more systems. This is really, really encouraging. 40% of the customers that are acquired in 2025 were net new customers, and each one of them has the potential to add additional capacity. So those are the main achievements. I would say that we are entering 2026 with much better visibility, predictability. Almost 83% of our revenue for 2026 is recurring or reoccurring revenue. So we feel very confident getting into 2026.

Speaker #1: This is really, really encouraging. 40% of the customers that are required in 2025 were net new customer. And each one of them has the potential to add additional capacity.

Ronen Samuel: This is really, really encouraging. 40% of the customers that are acquired in 2025 were net new customers, and each one of them has the potential to add additional capacity. So those are the main achievements. I would say that we are entering 2026 with much better visibility, predictability. Almost 83% of our revenue for 2026 is recurring or reoccurring revenue. So we feel very confident getting into 2026.

Speaker #1: So, those are the main achievements. I would say that we are entering 2026 with much better visibility and predictability—almost 83% of our revenue for 2026 is recurring or reoccurring revenue.

Speaker #1: So we feel very confident into getting into 2026.

Speaker #4: Okay. That's great. And I guess last one, before I hand it off. How should we think about the system placements this year versus last just in light of this continued I think you said accelerated shift towards AIC?

Greg Palm: Okay. That's great. And I guess last one before I hand it off, how should we think about the system placements this year versus last just in light of this continued, I think you said, accelerated shift towards AIC? I mean, I assume unit volumes will be up probably quite a bit. So I'm not looking for specifics, but just a little bit of color on how we should think about that dynamic.

Speaker #4: I mean, I assume volumes—unit volumes—will be up, probably quite a bit. So I'm not looking for specifics, but just a little bit of color on how we should think about that dynamic.

Speaker #1: Yeah, this is a very good question. Because what you see, you see product, and you compare products on CapEx. And you don't see the products that we are shipping on AIC.

Ronen Samuel: Yeah. This is a very good, clear question because what you see, you see product, and you compare products on CapEx, and you don't see the products that we are shipping on AIC. Overall, the number of systems that we have delivered in 2025 was higher than 2024. So we are delivering more systems to the field, but even more importantly, that we are delivering more capacity because we are selling more high-end products to the market, which each system can generate more volume. So those are very, very strong indications for the future: more system, more capacity, which will generate more revenue coming from ink, services, and AIC.

Speaker #1: Overall, the number of systems that we have delivered in 2025 was higher than 2024. So we are delivering more systems to the field. But even more importantly, that we are delivering more capacity because we are selling more high-end products to the market, which is systems can generate more volume.

Speaker #1: So those are very, very strong indication for the future. More system, more capacity, which will generate more revenue coming from ink services and

Speaker #1: AIC. Okay.

Greg Palm: Okay. Appreciate the color.

Speaker #4: Appreciate the

Speaker #4: color. Thanks, Greg. Next question,

Speaker #4: color. Thanks, Greg. Next question, please. The next question is

Speaker #1: Thank you.

Ronen Samuel: Thank you.

Andy Backman: Thanks, Greg. Next question, please.

Andrew Backman: Thanks, Greg. Next question, please.

Operator: The next question is from Brian Drab from William Blair. Please go ahead.

Speaker #5: from Brian Drab from William Blair. Please go

Speaker #5: ahead. Hi, Ronen.

Brian Drab: Hi, Ronen, and congrats on a good quarter. And Andy and Asaf, nice to connect with you again. Can you talk, Ronen, a little bit about the low single-digit forecast? And you have in the past, you've given us a good bridge, kind of breaking down the business into the components of the consumables, services, and upgrades, etc. And can you help us bridge from 2025 revenue to 2026 forecast, also kind of incorporating what you're expecting from that Amazon upgrade order that you mentioned?

Speaker #4: And congrats on a good quarter and Andy and Asaf. Nice to connect with you again. Can you talk, Ronen, a little bit about the low single-digit forecast and you have in the past, you've given us a good bridge kind of breaking down the business into the components.

Speaker #4: Of the consumables, services, and upgrades, etc. And can you help us bridge from 2025 revenue to 2026 forecast? Also, kind of incorporating what you're expecting from that Amazon upgrade order that you mentioned.

Speaker #1: Yeah. So first of all, we are very pleased with the decision of our global strategic customers to continue to grow with us, ensure the confidence in the technology, and in our partnerships moving forward.

Ronen Samuel: Yeah. So first of all, we are very pleased with the decision of our global strategic customers to continue to go with us, ensure the confidence in the technology, and in our partnerships moving forward. It's something that we anticipated, hoped to get, and we received it. Definitely, we'll have some impacts on 2026 in terms of growth and revenue. But we need to remember, we are in the beginning of the year. We would like to be very prudent about what we are saying to the market at this stage. While we have much better visibility and predictability for 2026, we are really continuing to push more into the AIC, ARR revenue.

Speaker #1: It's something that we anticipated, hoped to get, and we received it. Definitely, we'll have some impacts on the 2026 in terms of growth and revenue.

Speaker #1: But we need to remember we are in the beginning of the year. We would like to be very prudent about what we are saying to the market at this stage.

Speaker #1: While we have much better visibility and predictability for 2026, we are really continuing to push more into the AIC, ARR revenue. So whenever we can move customers and deals into this model, this is where we are motivating our team to go.

Ronen Samuel: So whenever we can move customers and deals into this model, this is where we are motivating our team to go and show the customer the value in the ARR, which means that there is some impact in the short term in order to build the long-term quality of the revenue and predictability. We are focusing a lot in 2026 on improvement of the profitability. So you will see expansion on the profitability. We will continue to focus on penetrating the screen market, growing the ARR drastically. This is the focus of 2026. And you will see a lot of innovation as well coming in 2026 that will start contributing for the second half of 2026. So I understand the questions of guiding the market into low single digits. Remember, we would like to be prudent.

Speaker #1: And the customer to show the customer the value in the ARR, which means that he has some impact in the short term in order to build the long-term quality of the revenue and predictability.

Speaker #1: We are focusing a lot in 2026 on improvement of the profitability. So you will see expansion on the profitability. We will continue to focus on penetrating the screen market, growing the ARR drastically.

Ronen Samuel: We will continue to focus on penetrating the screen market, growing the ARR drastically. This is the focus of 2026. And you will see a lot of innovation as well coming in 2026 that will start contributing for the second half of 2026. So I understand the questions of guiding the market into low single digits. Remember, we would like to be prudent.

Speaker #1: This is the focus of our 2026. And you will see a lot of innovation as well coming in 2026 that will start contributing for the second half of 2026.

Speaker #1: So I understand the questions of guiding the market into low single digits. Remember, we would like to be prudent. We would like to be in position that we are in a good size and not missing our numbers.

Ronen Samuel: We would like to be in a position that we are in a good size and not missing our numbers.

Speaker #4: Okay. Can you talk at all about the significance of an order from your strategic customer for the upgrades? How many machines, roughly, we're talking about?

Brian Drab: Okay. Can you talk at all about the significance of an order from your strategic customer for the upgrades? How many machines roughly we're talking about? Is that substantial? And how will that progress throughout 2026? Is it all in one quarter? Is it throughout the year?

Speaker #4: Is that substantial? And how will that progress throughout 2026? Is it all in one quarter? Is it throughout the

Speaker #4: year? Yeah.

Ronen Samuel: Yeah. So I would start to say we have a very close relationship, very strategic relationship, and we are very proud of this partnership between us, working very, very close together. As you can imagine, I cannot disclose any sensitive information of this strategic customer or any customer without getting their permission. I don't have the permission to share this information. What I can say is that after last year, we started the initial upgrade in part of their portfolio. It was very successful. They saw the benefit, and they placed an order for continuing upgrading it during 2026. These upgrades will take time. It's not one quarter. It's a few quarters because we're talking about a fleet of upgrades. Again, it showed the confidence in the solution. It showed that they need to grow.

Speaker #1: So I would start saying we have very close relationship, very strategic relationship. And we are very proud of this partnership between us, working very, very close together.

Speaker #1: As you can imagine, I cannot disclose any sensitive information of this strategic customer or any customer. Without getting their permission, I don't have the permission to share this information.

Speaker #1: What I can say is that after last year, we started the initial upgrade in part of the portfolio. It was very successful. They saw the benefit.

Ronen Samuel: It was very successful. They saw the benefit, and they placed an order for continuing upgrading it during 2026. These upgrades will take time. It's not one quarter. It's a few quarters because we're talking about a fleet of upgrades. Again, it showed the confidence in the solution. It showed that they need to grow. The main benefit of the Max is really providing more capacity, and they need more capacity to grow, which is a very good sign. Of course, we continue to evaluate together new technology into the future.

Speaker #1: And they placed an order for continual upgrading it during 2026. This upgrade will take time. It's not one quarter. It's a few quarters. Because we're talking about a fleet of upgrades.

Speaker #1: Again, show the confidence in the solution. It showed that they need to grow. The main benefit of the marks really providing more capacity. And they need more capacity to grow.

Ronen Samuel: The main benefit of the Max is really providing more capacity, and they need more capacity to grow, which is a very good sign. Of course, we continue to evaluate together new technology into the future.

Speaker #1: Which it's a very good sign. And of course, we continue to evaluate together. New technology into the

Speaker #4: Yeah. Thank you very

Brian Drab: Yeah. Thank you very much.

Speaker #4: much. The next

Speaker #5: question is from Eric. Yeah. Next question is from Eric Woodring from Morgan Stanley. Please go

Operator: The next question is from Eric. Yeah. Next question is from Eric Woodring from Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead.

Speaker #5: ahead. Hey, guys.

Brian Drab: Hey, guys. Thank you for taking my questions this morning. And congrats on the solid execution to end the year here. Ronen, I would love for you to maybe help us understand where the Apollo story stands today. It's taken a few turns. It took a few turns in 2025. Obviously, starting the year, I think we learned about the longer sales cycles with new customers. As we sit here today, what have you learned about the time to onboard and ramp these new customers to make sure that you can kind of maintain momentum in this product into 2026? And are these new customers using Apollo any differently than existing customers? If you have any cohort observations, I'd love to better understand that. And then a quick follow-up for Asaf, please.

Erik Woodring: Hey, guys. Thank you for taking my questions this morning. And congrats on the solid execution to end the year here. Ronen, I would love for you to maybe help us understand where the Apollo story stands today. It's taken a few turns. It took a few turns in 2025.

Speaker #4: And are these new customers using Apollo any differently than existing customers? Like if you have any cohort observations, I'd love to better understand that.

Speaker #4: And then a quick follow-up for Asaf, please.

Speaker #1: Okay. Excellent question. Look, remember that we started actually deploying the Apollo in 2024. 2024 was after the beta. And in the beginning, we actually deployed the Apollo mainly into existing customers.

Ronen Samuel: Okay. Excellent question. Look, remember that we started actually deploying the Apollo in 2024. 2024 was after the beta. And in the beginning, we actually deployed the Apollo mainly into existing customers, those that used to run digital, that they have the Atlas MAXes, and they have the digital workflow. And the deployment was quite easy. Of course, we had to continue to improve the stability and the productivity, but we grew quite quickly in 2024 with those customers. But the aim of the Apollo was to go after an incremental market, not only in the one-off customized design, but really going after the screen and replacing the screen analog technologies. And this was the focus of 2025.

Speaker #1: Those that used to run digital, that they have the Atlas Maxes, and they have the digital workflow. And the deployment was quite easy. Of course, we had to continue to improve the stability and the productivity.

Speaker #1: But we grew quite quickly in 2024 with those customers. But the aim of the Apollo was to go after an incremental market, not only in the one-off customized design, but really going after the screen and replace-the-screen analog technologies.

Speaker #1: And this was the focus of 2025. And what we have achieved in 2025, while 2024 was focused on few customers with large fleet of Apollo, 2025 was focused on net new customers from the screen printers or penetrating for the first time with digital and taking the Apollo.

Ronen Samuel: And what we have achieved in 2025, while 2024 was focused on a few customers with a large fleet of Apollo, 2025 was focused on net new customers from the screen printers, or penetrating for the first time with digital and taking the Apollo. And what we found out is that the sales cycle is different. It's much easier to penetrate a digital player because they have the workflow. They have the understanding. They already have the need. With the screen market, you need to show them the need. You need to show them that the quality is at least as good as the screen market. You need to work with them on the workflow. You need to train them. It's a different mindset. Many of them are traditional. So we worked very hard in 2025 to start building lighthouses.

Speaker #1: And what we found out that the sales cycle is different. It's much easier to penetrate digital player because they have the workflow. They have the understanding.

Ronen Samuel: They have the understanding. They already have the need. With the screen market, you need to show them the need. You need to show them that the quality is at least as good as the screen market. You need to work with them on the workflow. You need to train them. It's a different mindset.

Speaker #1: They already have the need. With the screen market, you need to show them the need. You need to show them that the quality at least as good as the screen market.

Speaker #1: You need to work with them on the workflow. You need to train them. It's a different mindset. Many of them are traditional. So we work very hard in 2025 to start building lighthouses.

Speaker #1: And within 2025, we'll already saw a few of them going with the second Apollo or taking a fleet of Apollo and Atlas Maxes together.

Ronen Samuel: Within 2025, we already saw a few of them going with the second Apollo or taking a fleet of Apollo and Atlas MAXes together. We started to see successes. What we see right now in all kinds of open houses that we have in those customers is that they're becoming a lighthouse, and they're telling the story to other screen printers how it changed their business, and what benefit it provides them, and if it wasn't too complex. So we've learned a lot. We've learned the type of quality that they expect, the type of productivity that they expect, the different garments that they would like to run. We are focusing a lot on the workflow. How do we automate their workflow versus digital players that are coming already with workflows that are designed for digital?

Speaker #1: And we started to see successes. And what we see right now in all kinds of open houses that we have in those customers, that they're becoming a lighthouse.

Speaker #1: And they're telling the story to other screen printers, how it changed their business, and what benefit it's provided them, and if it wasn't too complex.

Speaker #1: So we've learned a lot. We've learned the type of quality that they expect, the type of productivity that they expect, the different garments that they would like to run.

Ronen Samuel: We've learned the type of quality that they expect, the type of productivity that they expect, the different garments that they would like to run. We are focusing a lot on the workflow. How do we automate their workflow versus digital players that are coming already with workflows that are designed for digital?

Speaker #1: We focusing a lot on the workflow. How do we automate their workflow versus digital players that are coming already with workflows that are designed for digital?

Speaker #1: So you will see some innovation on the workflow side at connection, event, specifically addressing the screen market in order to make it easier for them and to shorten the sales cycle of penetrating and growing the screen

Ronen Samuel: So you will see some innovation on the workflow side at Kornit Connection events, specifically addressing the screen market in order to make it easier for them and to shorten the sales cycle of penetrating and growing the screen market.

Speaker #1: market. Okay.

Brian Drab: Okay. Awesome. Thank you for that. And then, Asaf, nice to, I guess, meet you over the phone here. But I'd love to get your insights just at a high level of how we see better profitability in 2026. Obviously, you gave us what you think about revenue growth, but how should we be thinking about gross margins given AIC mix improves? That's higher profitability. Ink and consumables growth should seemingly follow impressions, at least somewhat. And then what's the approach to expenses this year? I'd just love to understand the moving pieces there. Thanks so much.

Erik Woodring: Okay. Awesome. Thank you for that. And then, Asaf, nice to, I guess, meet you over the phone here. But I'd love to get your insights just at a high level of how we see better profitability in 2026. Obviously, you gave us what you think about revenue growth, but how should we be thinking about gross margins given AIC mix improves? That's higher profitability.

Speaker #4: Awesome. Thank you. Thank you for that. And then Asaf, nice to, I guess, meet you over the phone here. But I'd love to get your insights just at a high level of how we see better profitability in 2026.

Speaker #4: Obviously, you gave us what you think about revenue growth. But how should we be thinking about gross margins given AIC mix improves? That's higher profitability.

Speaker #4: Inc in consumables growth should seemingly follow impressions, at least somewhat. And then what's the approach to expenses this year? I'd just love to understand the moving pieces there.

Speaker #4: Thanks so much.

Speaker #1: Yeah. Hi, Eric. Thanks for the question. So I would say that our biggest growth driver is AIC. AIC has a creative gross margin to the overall company.

Assaf Zipori: Yeah. Hi, Eric. Thanks for the question. So I would say that our biggest growth driver is AIC. AIC has a creative gross margin to the overall company. And as it scales further, you should expect to see expansion continuous. With that, we have a very disciplined approach towards expenses and adjusting the expenses in line with our growth rate as we look into 2026. In 2026, I would not expect to see a significant deviation for our gross margins as AIC continues to scale. So you should expect reasonable levels as you're seeing now. In terms of OpEx, we are also not expecting any significant changes in OpEx for as long as we continue to grow as we expect. We will remain very disciplined in our approach and in the way that we evaluate the impact of tariffs, the impact of foreign exchange, and so on.

Speaker #1: And as it scales further, you should expect to see expansion continues. With that, we have a very disciplined approach toward expenses. And adjusting the expenses in line with our growth rate as we look into 2026.

Assaf Zipori: In 2026, I would not expect to see a significant deviation for our gross margins as AIC continues to scale. So you should expect reasonable levels as you're seeing now. In terms of OpEx, we are also not expecting any significant changes in OpEx for as long as we continue to grow as we expect. We will remain very disciplined in our approach and in the way that we evaluate the impact of tariffs, the impact of foreign exchange, and so on.

Speaker #1: In '26, I would not expect to see a significant deviation for our gross margins as AIC continues to scale. So you should expect a reasonable level as you're seeing now.

Speaker #1: In terms of OPEX, we are also not expecting any significant changes in OPEX for as long as we continue to grow as we expect.

Speaker #1: We remain very disciplined in our approach. And in the way that we evaluate the impact of tariffs, the impact of foreign exchange, and so

Speaker #1: on. Awesome.

Brian Drab: Awesome. Thank you. Good luck, guys.

Erik Woodring: Awesome. Thank you. Good luck, guys.

Speaker #4: Thank you. Good luck, guys.

Speaker #1: Thanks. Thank you. Next question, please.

Assaf Zipori: Thank you.

Troy Jensen: Thank you.

Andy Backman: Next question, please.

Andrew Backman: Next question, please.

Speaker #5: Next question is from Troy Jensen from Lake Street Capital Markets. Please go

Operator: Next question is from Troy Jensen from Lake Street Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Speaker #5: ahead. It's actually, I

Troy Jensen: It's actually, I can't know if it's Gerald now, but gentlemen, congrats on the great quarter. And Asaf and Andy, nice working with you guys again. Quick, maybe just Ronen, for you, just looking back at 2025, can you just talk about the overall market? Do you think the industry was stagnant? You guys maintained share, or was there growth, and you guys lost share because of the AIC conversion, or kind of any thoughts there would be great.

Speaker #6: can't hear if it's Gerald now. But a gentleman, congrats on the great quarter and Asaf and Andy. Nice working with you guys again. Quick, maybe just Ronen, for you, just looking back at '25, can you just talk about the overall market?

Speaker #6: Do you think the industry was stagnant? You guys maintained share or was there growth? And you guys lost share because of the AIC conversion or kind of any thoughts there would be

Speaker #6: great. Thanks for the

Ronen Samuel: Thanks for the question. Look, the market is shifting. The market is really changing. We are talking with many, many brands, retailers, and demand generators. They're all talking about, in any boardroom, talking about how they can stay relevant. Product lifecycle is getting shorter and shorter, changing by the minute. And the way that they were focusing in the past and producing in the past is not relevant. And we see it in life. We see brands, retailers, and demand generators moving production nearshore and onshore, talking about how can they produce closer to the consumer without excess inventory, how they become more sustainable, how they can become more relevant by bringing new products to the market. And it's a clear change that we see. We see some leading brands. And I mentioned Zumiez and the way that they changed, they fully moved to vertical production.

Speaker #1: question. Look, the market is shifting. Market is really changing. We are talking with many, many brands, retailers, demand generators. They're all talking about, in any boardroom, talking about how they can stay relevant.

Speaker #1: Product lifecycle is getting shorter and shorter. Changing by the minute. And the way that they were focusing in the past and producing in the past is not relevant.

Speaker #1: And we see it in live. We see brands and retailers and demand generators moving production nearshore and onshore. Talking about how can they produce closer to the consumer without excess inventory as they become more sustainable?

Ronen Samuel: We see brands, retailers, and demand generators moving production nearshore and onshore, talking about how can they produce closer to the consumer without excess inventory, how they become more sustainable, how they can become more relevant by bringing new products to the market. And it's a clear change that we see. We see some leading brands. And I mentioned Zumiez and the way that they changed, they fully moved to vertical production.

Speaker #1: How they can become more relevant by bringing new products to the market? And it's a clear change that we see. We see some leading brands and I mentioned Zoomies or the way that they changed their fully moved to vertical production.

Speaker #1: And we see more and more retailers and brands starting to move to on-demand production. This is become a necessity. This is not anymore a discussion like what was in the past.

Ronen Samuel: We see more and more retailers and brands starting to move to on-demand production. This has become a necessity. This is not anymore a discussion like what was in the past. And of course, tariffs and the minimums really pushed even further the move to onshore production. We see it also within our customers. They are gaining volume, which reflects in the impression volume. So overall, the trend is very, very clear. It's being now accelerated. It's obvious that the fashion industry, apparel industry, is going to change. It's going to change dramatically. How fast is very difficult to focus, but now it's a necessity. This world is moving to digital, like many, many other industries that we know that moved to digital. Textile and fashion is not an exception.

Speaker #1: And of course, tariff and the minimus really pushed even further the move to onshore production. We see it also within our customers that are gaining volume, which reflects in the impression volume.

Speaker #1: So overall, the trend is very, very clear. It's being now accelerated. It's obvious that fashion industry apparel industry is going to change. It's going to change dramatically.

Ronen Samuel: It's being now accelerated. It's obvious that the fashion industry, apparel industry, is going to change. It's going to change dramatically. How fast is very difficult to focus, but now it's a necessity. This world is moving to digital, like many, many other industries that we know that moved to digital. Textile and fashion is not an exception.

Speaker #1: How fast is very difficult to focus. But now it's necessity. This world is moving to digital. Like many, many other industries that we know that move to digital, textile and fashion is not

Speaker #1: exception. Yeah.

Speaker #6: All right. Understood. Asaf, just for you, just to follow up on the cost question too. I'm non-GAAP OPEX was $27 million. Would you assume that it's that number or higher going forward on a sequential

Troy Jensen: Yeah. All right. Understood. Asaf, just for you, just to follow up on the cost question too, non-GAAP OpEx was $27 million. Would you assume that it's that number or higher going forward on a sequential basis?

Speaker #6: basis? I would say that you should

Assaf Zipori: I would say that you should not expect any significant changes as we move forward. Obviously, we have a certain exposure to FX. We also hedge, so the exposure is somewhat contained. We are also well-positioned. And in our plants, we've assumed that FX would remain at reasonably similar levels to what it is today. So I would not expect any material changes.

Speaker #1: not expect any significant changes as we move forward. Obviously, we have a certain exposure to FX. We also hedge. So the exposure is somewhat contained.

Speaker #1: We are also well positioned and in our plants, we've assumed that FX would remain at reasonable similar levels to what it is today. So I would not expect any material changes.

Speaker #6: Okay. If you look at just in the model too on that FX, was that all kind of in the R&D? It looks like that had a big sequential growth.

Troy Jensen: Okay. If you look at just in the model too on that FX, was that all kind of in the R&D? It looks like that had a big sequential growth.

Speaker #1: It's mostly on the operational side. We have a significant team in Israel. That is being paid in the local currency. Not necessarily just

Assaf Zipori: It's mostly on the operational side. We have a significant team in Israel that is being paid in the local currency, not necessarily just R&D.

Speaker #1: R&D. All

Speaker #6: right. Understood. If I could get one last question, you guys kind of mentioned cash and use of funds and inorganic opportunities. What types of applications or technology, Ronen, do you think you guys would be interested for you guys to absorb?

Troy Jensen: All right. Understood. If I could get one last question, you guys kind of mentioned cash and use of funds and inorganic opportunities. What types of applications or technology, Ronen, do you think you guys it would be interesting for you guys to absorb?

Speaker #3: Yeah. So in general, we need to wait to see in connection. I expect to see you at connection because we are going to have a lot of unveiling new technologies.

Ronen Samuel: Yeah. So in general, we need to wait to see in connection. I expect to see you at connection because we are going to have a lot of unveiling new technologies. I'm going to say that it will be across the board. It will be on the direct-to-garment. It will be on the roll-to-roll. It will be on workflow. It will be on new applications. Think about it. Kornit was always in the decoration area. We will continue to bring innovation on the decoration, but we are taking it to the technical area as well with new capability, with new chemistry, with new processes. We are taking it to the functional area after the technical. And you will see some functional revolution that we are bringing with our technology and even to the smart area, smart apparel, that you will see some innovation at connection.

Speaker #3: I'm going to say that it will be across the board. It will be on the direct-to-government. It will be on the roll-to-roll. It will be on workflow.

Speaker #3: It will be on new application. Think about it. Qornit is always in the decoration area. We will continue to bring innovation on the decoration.

Ronen Samuel: Think about it. Kornit was always in the decoration area. We will continue to bring innovation on the decoration, but we are taking it to the technical area as well with new capability, with new chemistry, with new processes. We are taking it to the functional area after the technical. And you will see some functional revolution that we are bringing with our technology and even to the smart area, smart apparel, that you will see some innovation at connection.

Speaker #3: But we are taking it to the technical area, as well with new capability, with new chemistry, with new processes. We are taking it to the functional area after the technical.

Speaker #3: And you will see some functional revolution that we are bringing with our technology. And even to the smart area, our smart apparel that you will see some innovation at connection.

Speaker #3: Overall, it will be a breakthrough capabilities that we are bringing. It will be unique. We are the only one, what we are going to present there in terms of technology and innovation we will be unique in the market.

Ronen Samuel: Overall, it will be a breakthrough capability that we are bringing. It will be unique. We are the only ones what we are going to present there in terms of technology and innovation. We will be unique in the market. We will approach new market segments. It will be a major differentiator versus other things that you can see in the market. Specifically, I'm going to say that there will be a lot of focus also on the sports market and sports innovation at the event. So other than that, again, I welcome all of you to join us. It will give you the opportunity not only to see the technology but to interact with many of our customers, prospects, brands, and retailers that will be there, major brands that will be there, and they tell the stories. So you're all welcome to join us.

Speaker #3: We will approach new market segments. It will be a major differentiator versus other things that you can see in the market. Specifically, I'm going to say that there will be a lot of focus also on the sports market and sports innovation.

Speaker #3: At the event. So other than that, again, I welcome all of you to join us. It will give you the opportunity not only to see the technology, but to interact with many of our customers, prospects, brands, and retailers that will be there—major brands that will be there—and they tell the stories.

Speaker #3: So you're all welcome to join us.

Speaker #6: Awesome. Well, good luck going forward,

Troy Jensen: Awesome. Well, good luck going forward, guys.

Ronen Samuel: Thank you.

Speaker #6: All right. Thanks. Next Thank you. question, please.

Troy Jensen: All right. Thanks. Next question, please.

Speaker #7: Next question is from Jim Ricchiuti from Needham Inco. Please go ahead.

Operator: Next question is from Jim Ricciuti from Needham & Company. Please go ahead.

Speaker #8: Thanks. I was wondering if I can get an update on the direct-to-fabric market. I'm assuming that was probably a more challenging area of the business.

Jim Ricchiuti: Thanks. I was wondering if I can get an update on the direct-to-fabric market. I'm assuming that was probably a more challenging area of the business. In 2025, it sounds like you're looking to introduce a new product into that market. How do we think about that and the timing? Is that second half 2026, or can you give us some color on that?

James Ricchiuti: Thanks. I was wondering if I can get an update on the direct-to-fabric market. I'm assuming that was probably a more challenging area of the business. In 2025, it sounds like you're looking to introduce a new product into that market. How do we think about that and the timing? Is that second half 2026, or can you give us some color on that?

Speaker #8: In 2025, it sounds like you're looking to introduce some new product into that market. How do we think about that and the timing? Is that second half '26 or can you give us some color on that?

Speaker #3: Yeah. So indeed, 2025 wasn't a great year for the roll-to-roll business. We had higher expectations. What I can say is that we are starting the year with much stronger pipeline.

Ronen Samuel: Yeah. So indeed, 2025 wasn't a great year for the roll-to-roll business. We had higher expectations. What I can say is that we are starting the year with a much stronger pipeline, first of all, with tangible pipelines that we can convert, and we feel much more confident. Now, this confidence is not only about the pipeline. It's also about the new market that we invested in 2025, specifically in the footwear market with new players that are entering this market. Part of this innovation you will see in Kornit Connection again about the footwear. It's revolutionary, what we brought to this market, and this will continue to expand.

Speaker #3: First of all, with tangible pipelines that we can convert and we feel much more confident. Now, this confidence is not only about the pipeline.

Speaker #3: It's also about the new market that we invested in 2025, specifically in the footwear market with new players that are entering this market. Part of this innovation you will see in connection again about the footwear is revolutionary what we brought to this market.

Speaker #3: And this will continue to expand. On the technical market, we are getting to new market segments on the technical, and you will see some innovative applications there.

Ronen Samuel: On the technical market, we are getting to a new market segment on the technical, and you will see some innovative applications there and the functional in the sports market, which there's some big news that hopefully will come later this year, working with some of the biggest brands of the world on functional apparel that all relates also to the roll-to-roll business. We are going to unveil some new technology both in terms of the systems but also in terms of the process, chemistry, but also some features that will enable our customer to enter to new applications, very innovative applications that until today, traditionally, it was done by analog, and digital can do it much faster, much better with unleashing the flexibility and better economics.

Speaker #3: And the functional in the sports market, which there is some big news that hopefully will come later this year. Working with some of the biggest brands of the world on functional apparel.

Speaker #3: That all relates also to the roll-to-roll business. We are going to unveil some new technology, both in terms of the systems but also in terms of the process.

Ronen Samuel: We are going to unveil some new technology both in terms of the systems but also in terms of the process, chemistry, but also some features that will enable our customer to enter to new applications, very innovative applications that until today, traditionally, it was done by analog, and digital can do it much faster, much better with unleashing the flexibility and better economics.

Speaker #3: Chemistry, but also some features that will enable our customer to enter to new application very innovative application that till today traditionally was done by analog and digital can do it much faster, much better with unleashing the flexibility and better economics.

Speaker #3: So we are much more confident that 2026 will be a year that will start to see a very nice growth on the roll-to-roll business.

Ronen Samuel: So we are much more confident that 2026 will be a year that we'll start to see a very nice growth on the roll-to-roll business. And definitely, later second half of the year and getting into 2027, this is where we will expect to see acceleration in this market.

Speaker #3: And definitely, later second half of the year and getting into 2027, this is where we will expect to see acceleration in this market.

Speaker #8: Thank you. Stuff, can you talk about the there were some targeted price increases I think that the company called out in the last earnings call.

Jim Ricchiuti: Thank you. Asaf, can you talk about that there were some targeted price increases, I think, that the company called out in the last earnings call. Were those fully realized in Q4, or will there be some benefit from that in the early part of 2026? Thanks.

James Ricchiuti: Thank you. Asaf, can you talk about that there were some targeted price increases, I think, that the company called out in the last earnings call. Were those fully realized in Q4, or will there be some benefit from that in the early part of 2026? Thanks.

Speaker #8: Were those fully realized in Q4 or will there be some benefit from that in the early part of 2026?

Speaker #8: Thanks. So this is

Assaf Zipori: So this is a gradual process that the company is evaluating and executing. I think that we remain committed to the guidance that we've given, and everything is reflected within that guidance. So yeah, that's.

Speaker #3: a gradual process that the company is evaluating and executing. I think that we remain committed to the guidance that we've given. And everything is reflected within that guidance.

Speaker #3: So yeah, that's.

Speaker #8: Yeah. I would just

Ronen Samuel: Yeah. I would just say we mentioned the last call, we implemented a small price increase to our installed base due to the tariffs. We already implemented it, and we are running it at the beginning of the year. Overall, the market received it with full acceptance, and we are running, and it's baked into the model.

Speaker #8: say as we mentioned the last call, we implemented a small price increase to our install base due to the tariff. We already implemented it.

Speaker #8: And we are running it as a beginning of the year. Overall, the market received it with fully acceptance. And we are running and it's baked into the model.

Speaker #8: Okay. And we're going to last question just a quick one. On '26, would you expect more activity with new customers or just greater multi-unit deployments with existing given some of the traction you saw with new customers last year?

Jim Ricchiuti: Okay. And Ronen, last question, just a quick one. On '26, would you expect more activity with new customers or just greater multi-unit deployments with existing, given some of the traction you saw with new customers last year?

James Ricchiuti: Okay. And Ronen, last question, just a quick one. On '26, would you expect more activity with new customers or just greater multi-unit deployments with existing, given some of the traction you saw with new customers last year?

Speaker #3: It's a mix. As I mentioned, in 2025, 40% of our dealer were with new customers. Almost every one of them we expect to grow in 2026.

Ronen Samuel: It's a mix. As I mentioned, in 2025, 40% of our dealers were with new customers. Almost every one of them, we expect to grow in 2026. So it will be repeated sales on top of some of our key customers that continue to grow, if it's for upgrades, if it's for additional systems. But our focus is, of course, on penetrating the screen market and penetrating in the roll-to-roll into new markets. By definition, penetrating to the screen market and the roll-to-roll, mostly it will come from net new customers. So we expect many net new customers adding into 2026. And of course, later on, each one of them can take multiple systems.

Speaker #3: we'll be repeated sales on So top of some of our key customers that continue to grow. If it's for upgrade, if it's for additional systems, but our focus is, of course, on penetrating the screen market.

Speaker #3: And penetrating in the roll-to-roll into new market by definition, penetrating to the screen market and the roll-to-roll mostly it will come from a net new customer.

Speaker #3: So we expect many net new customers adding into 2026. And of course, later on, each one of them can take multiple

Speaker #3: So we expect many net new customers adding into 2026. And of course, later on, each one of them can take multiple systems. Thank

Speaker #8: you. Great. Thanks, Jim. Next question,

Speaker #8: you. Great. Thanks, Jim. Next question, please. Next question is

Jim Ricchiuti: Thank you. Great. Thanks, Jim. Next question, please.

James Ricchiuti: Thank you. Great. Thanks, Jim. Next question, please.

Operator: Next question is from Chris Moore from CJS Securities. Please go ahead.

Speaker #7: from Chris Moore from CJS Securities. Please go ahead.

Speaker #9: Hey, thanks. Taking a couple, guys. So obviously, the shift to AIC slows the revenue growth near term. Talking about low single digits today. Given where you sit and the pace of progression on ARR, is it likely two to three years before that annual revenue growth starts to pick up, or just any thoughts on how you're looking at that?

Chris Moore: Hey. Thanks. Taking a couple, guys. So obviously, the shift to AIC slows the revenue growth near term. Talking about low single digits today. Given where you sit and the pace of progression on ARR, likely 2 to 3 years before that annual revenue growth starts to pick up or just kind of any thoughts on how you're looking at that?

Speaker #3: Yeah. So first of all, look, the ARR by itself is 25 million dollars of ending this year. It's a major milestone. It's starting to be also significant in terms of revenue per revenue.

Ronen Samuel: Yeah. So first of all, look, the ARR by itself is $25 million ending this year. It's a major milestone, starting to be also significant in terms of revenue per quarter. We ended the year with $50 million of revenue. This revenue is accretive in terms of gross margin to the mix of the gross margin. And we expect that this gross margin will expand as the program will continue to grow. So it will have a major contribution both in revenue, gross margin, but the predictability is very important. Each one of those deals usually is being signed for five years commitment. So we have five-year horizon of those deals, so with a clear commitment. And the ARR that we are reporting is the minimum commitment on the contract. Of course, customer can print more impressions and deliver additional. So this is a significant milestone.

Speaker #3: This revenue is higher and is accretive in terms of gross margin to the mix of the gross margin. And we expect that this gross margin will expand as the program will continue to grow.

Speaker #3: So it will have a major contribution both in revenue gross margin, but the predictability is very important. Each one of those deals usually is being signed for five years, commitment.

Ronen Samuel: Each one of those deals usually is being signed for five years commitment. So we have five-year horizon of those deals, so with a clear commitment. And the ARR that we are reporting is the minimum commitment on the contract. Of course, customer can print more impressions and deliver additional. So this is a significant milestone.

Speaker #3: So we have five-year horizon of those deals. So with a clear commitment. And the ARR that we are reporting is the minimum customer can print can print more impression and deliver additional.

Speaker #3: So this is a significant milestone. Now, we believe that we will start seeing a faster growth in the top line revenue once the AIC or the ARR will reach around the 50 million dollars.

Ronen Samuel: Now, we believe that we will start seeing a faster growth in the top-line revenue once the AIC or the ARR will reach around the $50 million. So now we are at $25 million. When we will reach to the $50 million of ARR, the AIC revenue will be so significant that we will start to see acceleration on the top-line versus where we see today.

Speaker #3: So now we are at 25. When we reach $50 million of ARR, the AIC revenue will be so significant that we will start to see acceleration on the top line versus where we sit today.

Speaker #9: Got it. That's helpful. From a geographic standpoint, geographic mix, you expect your revenue to be much different two to three years from now?

Chris Moore: Got it. That's helpful. From a geographic standpoint, geographic mix, you expect your revenue to be much different 2 to 3 years from now?

Speaker #3: No. We still see the fastest growth in the Americas and specifically North Americas while it's the largest territories and both in revenue. It's also the fastest growing territories for us.

Ronen Samuel: No. We still see the fastest growth in the Americas, specifically North America. While it's the largest territory both in revenue, it's also the fastest-growing territory for us. We see that EMEA is catching up. And now, with the new technologies that we are bringing both on the DTG and the wall-to-wall, we expect to see some acceleration in Asia, specifically around the footwear, specifically around the sports market and technical market. But in the next 2 to 3 years, Americas will continue to lead and probably will continue to be the fastest-growing region for us.

Speaker #3: We see that EMEA is catching up. And now, with the new technologies that we are bringing, both on the DTG and the roll-to-roll, we expect to see some acceleration in Asia, specifically around footwear—specifically around the sports market and technical market.

Speaker #3: But in the next two to three years, Americas will continue to lead and probably will continue to be the fastest growing region for us.

Speaker #9: Got it, helpful. Last one for me—is there anything you're hearing in terms of competitors looking to create similar AIC?

Chris Moore: Got it. Helpful. Last one for me is just, are you hearing anything in terms of competitors looking to create a similar AIC model?

Speaker #9: model? We have

Ronen Samuel: We have some rumors. We had competitors saying that they can provide it as well. Tangentially, we don't see it. We think that it will be very difficult for them from a cash flow perspective to go forward with it. This is AIC is not just a financial model. It's a change of DNA. There's tons of tools around it. There's a lot of AI to support it. There's a change of the entire mindset of the service organization and support and customer success. We are much stronger today as a team, as an organization in terms of the way that we are supporting our customer. We are getting great feedback on the TCE reports from our customers about the way we're supporting them, meaning that we are much more proactive. This model forces us to be in partnership with our customers only when our customers are being successful.

Speaker #3: some rumors. We had competitors saying that they can provide it as well. Tangibly, we don't see it. We think that it will be very difficult for them from a cash flow perspective.

Speaker #3: To go forward with it, this is AIC is not just a financial model. It's a change of DNA. There's tons of tools around it.
