| So we're pleased with that momentum |
| mortgage business continuing to take market share and grow revenues despite the interest rate pressure and elevated churn, we believe this business is very well positioned for healthy top line growth for years to come |
| Once again, we significantly increased profitability, posting a 17% non-GAAP operating income margin even as we continue to invest in the business, specifically in product innovation |
| Our positive view of the quarter reflects a number of significant product wins across the platform |
| We've got a great pipeline with good coverage |
| We are excited about the business |
| And that's one of the benefits of having such a fantastic customer base of happy customers that we partnered with for years |
| So we feel confident that we have ample coverage 60% in quarter from existing customers as we've seen when the market gets tough, our customers need us more, and we continue to focus on them |
| These results demonstrate the benefit of cross-selling into our installed base of banks and credit unions, the differentiation of our mortgage technology, and we believe the durability of our business model |
| Looking to the fourth quarter, we remain confident in our ability to execute and are well positioned with ample pipeline coverage for a seasonally high fourth quarter sales performance |
| Our market-leading mortgage technology further enhances our ability to grow wallet share in an account once a customer experiences the value of our technology |
| These wins are the result of having our products available on a single integrated platform, and we are excited to deliver an enhanced omnichannel experience for consumer lending in the spring, further leveraging the technology we acquired in the SimpleNexus transaction |
| As our first generally available point-of-sale journey beyond mortgage, this offering will empower our consumer lending customers to deliver the exceptional point-of-sale experience we offer for mortgage across a broad spectrum of consumer lending products |
| The gross margin improvement was due to efficiencies realized in our customer support organization while maintaining customer satisfaction ratings of 3.9 or about 98% with 5x the respondents documented versus the year ago quarter |
| We had another solid quarter despite the continued unsettled macroeconomic environment |
| So we feel good about the pipe relative to our ability to deliver on the commitments that we've made for the fourth quarter |
| Today, we are well positioned to provide valuable and actionable insights from data aggregated across our customer base and integrated into our single platform |
| We've done, I think, a really good job of meeting our customers where they are |
| We've been pleased but not surprised by the customer excitement about this |
| The team has done a really good job of tracking the churn |
| We are excited about the large opportunities we see in the Japanese market and are pleased to see our investments over the past few years there bearing fruit |
| So I feel very optimistic that we're in a good strategic place |
| This impressive bottom line performance reflects continued operational discipline and leverage from our business model |
| We exceeded the high end of our revenue guidance with subscription revenues of $104.8 million, up 19% year-over-year, and total revenues of $121.9 million, up 16% year-over-year |
| So we're excited |
| As the backhoe environment settles down, the institutions leveraging and senior will be better positioned for market share gains, profitability, success and longevity |
| Our sales pipeline, which remains healthy, reinforces we are on the right path, notwithstanding some lumpiness we have seen this year with enterprise sales opportunities |
| We are excited to close the year with a strong Q4, positioning nCino for further growth next year and beyond |
| We are pleased with our third quarter results and the continued momentum we see in the business |
| Fortunately, despite the rate pressure, we are seeing the top performing originators earn a positive production profit as reported in the latest MBA quarterly mortgage bankers performance report |

| Despite this list of Q3 accomplishments, the selling environment does remain challenged in certain parts of our business |
| And I was just in Europe where one customer said to me, look, man, the project is a bit more difficult than we expected |
| Look, we've got banks where profitability is down as much as 40% year-over-year, as announced by public institutions |
| This event had a negative impact on deferred revenue of approximately $900,000 |
| Enterprise banks, in particular, continue to be slower signing deals |
| I think what you'll notice is below the top four banks, the deposit flow towards the big four was an issue through the liquidity crisis |
| And just from an internal perspective, we did expect Q3 to be lower than Q2 |
| We're not also not being toned on the macro and realizing that the buying environment is tough |
| But again, that final decision-making is a bit slower than what we would like to see |
| And you're just seeing that level of uncertainty and the moment that's over according to our pipelines and our conversations with banks, they have to do this |
| We did see elevated churn in the third quarter from IMBs in our U.S |
| The tentative nature of the buying persona we're seeing today is still because of the uncertainty of the rate environment |
| So we do not see a lack of conviction on the need for transformation |
| Non-GAAP net income attributable to nCino for the third quarter of fiscal '24 was $16.2 million or $0.14 per diluted share compared to negative $1.4 million or negative $0.01 per basic and diluted share in the third quarter of fiscal '23 |
| In the short run, we're still seeing that lumpiness in the market |
| And so what we are seeing is people are cautiously becoming optimistic, but waiting to see that this stabilized environment is setting in |
| And unlike the second quarter, we did see a few deals get pushed out of the third quarter as these customers further evaluate their budgets and the potential impact of an evolving interest rate environment on their business |
| And I think, Pierre, in the past, you've alluded to some inertia in the sales cycle |
| What we saw through COVID was when the market was destabilized |
| What I'm curious about is I'm not trying to put you on the spot, 4Q is a seasonally stronger bookings quarter, hopefully |
