| Partnerships like Experian are pivotal in our efforts to support new verticals, including government, telco, healthcare each of which presents a significant growth opportunity |
| But now with what we're doing with MiPass and, of course, the ID R&D biometrics and liveness componentry, having recurring revenue associated with more of a conventional subscription model we're really excited about how that's growing the business, and not just what we're going to do for the rest of FY24 but really the future of this business over the intermediate term |
| We have pricing power, both with the end using banks as well as with the core service channel providers that we rely on |
| We continue to believe the base check business, mobile check deposit and the check intelligence business will continue to be contributing growth to Mitek from a revenue perspective and continue to throw off impressive operating margins and profitability |
| And we are just so well positioned with the be-first be-best approach to face and voice, I feel really good about it |
| In closing, we are very pleased with our results, which included record revenue and record non-GAAP net income for the full year of fiscal 2023 |
| We continue to generate solid cash flow and strengthen our balance sheet in fiscal 2023, and we expect to continue to generate cash in fiscal 2024 |
| I'm very proud of our 200 machine learning and AI engineers, data scientists, developers and cloud op team members, who are dedicated to ensuring that our award winning product offerings remain at the forefront of the industry and their vital role in developing solutions to combat evolving fraud and enhance digital security |
| More specifically, material growth rates are expected this year from Check Fraud Defender as it moves from its nascent stage to accelerated growth, coupled with strong expected growth from the flagship identity platform MiVIP, MiPass and our ID R&D biometrics products |
| We continue to deliver strong software and hardware gross margins of 98% while on services and other revenue our gross margin was 74% for fiscal year 2023 |
| In summary, Mitek is well positioned for the continued growth in both revenue and profitability |
| By leveraging our unique access to rare and privileged customer data and transaction intelligence, we can deliver a digital additional differentiated value to our customers and drive increased shareholder value |
| MiControl is the latest of many products being built on MiVIP's low-code no-code platform for fast and simple implementation that we believe can drive revenue growth for us over the next several years |
| I am pleased to announce that, we achieved solid growth across both deposits and identity, leading to total revenue growth of 19% year-over-year |
| Additionally, we achieved non-GAAP net income of $44.4 million and generated $31.6 million in cash flow from operations further strengthening our balance sheet |
| The channel has been the trusted blueprint for selling mobile deposit and we are thrilled with the momentum we are starting to see in the channel with CFD |
| Encouragingly, our pipeline of potential customers continues to expand indicating a growing market interest in our offering |
| Despite the deliberate pace inherent in the regulated banking sector, our progress remains promising, driven by the substantial cost savings our CFD solution can deliver |
| Nationwide Building Society was a very strategic win and a competitive takeaway |
| With less than a handful of potential competitors today, we believe a 20% market share should be achievable, especially given our leadership position and strong reputation in check processing |
| Mitek's mission and approach are very well matched to this rebranding and we are confident it is one of the reasons we secured the business |
| CFD is making significant strides in combating check fraud with the potential to save banks billions of dollars in losses |
| We're also very excited about how our identity product portfolio reinforces our deposits business |
| With our leading industry biometric solutions preventing deepfakes, we expect biometrics and liveness to be a significant revenue growth engine for Mitek for years to come |
| According to industry analysts, the identity market is growing between 14% and 16% annually and we have the opportunity to take market share given our unique proprietary industry leading biometrics offerings and orchestration platform |
| The role AI is playing in changing and accelerating regulation further benefits Mitek and our solutions |
| By leveraging these alliances, we aim to establish a strong foothold in new geographies driving expansion and enhancing our global presence |
| Identity revenue for fiscal year 2023 grew 17% year-over-year to $68.4 million, driven by our SaaS products revenue |
| Revenue grew 17% year-over-year in fiscal 2023, attributed to strategic efforts in customer acquisition and expansion within our existing customer base |
| Turning to Mitek's record performance in fiscal 2023 |

| Access to digitally enabled services continues to explode and this accelerating shift to digital creates an immense challenge for organizations as they strive to balance customer experience with financial risk |
| It's also important to note that we won a large mobile check deposit customer in fiscal Q1 of 2023, which creates a difficult year-over-year comparison |
| With where interest rates are, we definitely see challenges on anything that's kind of loan origination or interest rate sensitive refinancing, new mortgages, HELOCs, even credit card issuance at these rates |
| From a quarterly trending perspective, we expect top line revenue to be lowest in fiscal Q1, ramping in Q2 and again in Q3 with Q4 expected to be in the range of Q3 revenue |
| And so as I said, when Chad asked the question, there's still uncertainty in the economy, there's still a lot of geopolitical stuff going on |
| As a recent Boston Fed article noted, one industry analyst estimates over $24 billion in check fraud losses in 2023 |
| We continue to expect our identity business to reach standalone profitability on a fully burdened basis in the fourth fiscal quarter |
| Initially praised by expediting and securing customer authentication, voice biometrics are being challenged by the emergence of generative AI voice clips, known as vishing or voice deepfakes, which malicious actors exploit to infiltrate financial accounts |
| Unidentified Analyst And then just to touch on what you're seeing in the market from like a competitive perspective, given the more difficult funding environment for private ID verification providers |
| And as long as criminals can cleverly exploit weaknesses and an institution's ability to distinguish a legitimate customer from an imposter, this threat will continue to grow |
| Thus, thwarting attempts to bypass screening processes using manipulated images |
| This growth is expected to be somewhat offset by revenue declines associated with our retirement of legacy ICAR products as they move towards end of life |
