Current report

The $1.0 million decrease for the three months ended July 31, 2025 was primarily due to an increase of $3.7 million in foreign currency losses, partially offset by an increase of $2.6 million in gains on foreign currency forward contracts.

During the three months ended April 30, 2025, we conducted a workforce reorganization effort to better align our resources with our strategic priorities. This resulted in charges of approximately $7.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, primarily consisting of severance and termination benefits, continuation of employee health benefits, and other personnel related costs.

Previous wording

Our overall performance depends in part on worldwide economic and geopolitical conditions and their impact on customer behavior. Economic conditions, including impacts from inflation, higher interest rates, tariffs, slower growth, the stronger dollar versus foreign currencies, particularly the Japanese Yen, reductions in U.S. federal spending, the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, and other changes in economic conditions, may adversely affect our results of operations and financial performance. During the three months ended April 30, 2025, in addition to headwinds from foreign exchange rate trends, we continued to see an impact from additional customer scrutiny being placed on larger deals and lower seat expansion rates due to the challenging macroeconomic environment. As a result, we have experienced, and may continue to experience, customer churn and delayed sales cycles, as well as customers and prospective customers reducing budgets for services that we offer. While we believe IT budgets have tightened and some larger deals have required more scrutiny across verticals and geographies, we also believe we are well-positioned to execute through these dynamic times as Box's ICM platform enables enterprises to streamline their businesses, drive up productivity, reduce risk, and lower costs.

Previous wording

Our net retention rate was 102% and 101% as of April 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Our net retention rate continues to be impacted by heightened budget scrutiny, putting pressure on seat expansion within existing customers and increased partial customer churn. As our customers purchase add-on products or our bundled plans, we tend to realize significantly higher average contract values and stronger net retention rates as compared to customers who only purchase our core product. We believe our go-to-market efforts to deliver a solution selling strategy and our investments in product, customer success, and Box Consulting, including our Box Shuttle migration offering, are significant factors in our customer retention results. As we penetrate customer accounts, we expect our net retention rate to remain above 100% for the foreseeable future.

As of April 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments of $792.1 million.

We believe our existing cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, together with our credit facility, will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs for at least the next 12 months and beyond. Our long-term capital requirements will depend on many factors including our growth rate, subscription renewal activity, billing frequency, public cloud obligations, repayment or refinancing of our debt obligations, settlement of our convertible senior notes and convertible preferred stock, the timing and extent of spending to support development efforts, the expansion of international activities, the introduction of new and enhanced service offerings, and the continuing market acceptance of our services. We may in the future enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, services and technologies, including intellectual property rights. We may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing.

The $4.1 million decrease in net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended April 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended April 30, 2024 was primarily due to a $9.0 million decrease in our net income, partially offset by a $2.9 million increase in adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities and $2.0 million in net cash provided from changes in operating assets and liabilities.

These were partially offset by a $15.2 million decrease in accounts receivable due to timing of our cash collections, a $2.9 million decrease in operating lease right-of-use assets due to amortization, a $2.1 million decrease in other assets, and a $0.7 million increase in deferred commissions resulting from capitalization of incremental commissions paid to our sales force.

Current wording
