We derived approximately 95% of our revenue from subscriptions to our cloud-based software platform and approximately 5% from professional services for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Our subscription contracts have initial non-cancellable terms of one year to three years with renewal options. The majority of new contracts in 2024 and during the six months ended June 30, 2025 had an initial non-cancellable term of three years. We have updated our subscription pricing models to address the value of BlackLine solutions based on a number of factors, including customer size, the products involved in delivering our solutions, and volumetrics, such as transactions or entities. We typically invoice customers annually in advance for subscriptions, which is initially recorded as deferred revenue and recognized ratably over the term of the customer contract. The first year of subscription fees are typically payable within 30 days after execution of a contract, and thereafter upon renewal.

Dollar-based net revenue retention rate. We believe that dollar-based net revenue retention rate is an important metric to measure the long-term value of customer agreements and our ability to retain and grow our relationships with existing customers over time. We calculate dollar-based net revenue retention rate as the implied monthly subscription and support revenue at the end of a period for the base set of customers from which we generated subscription revenue in the year prior to the calculation, divided by the implied monthly subscription and support revenue one year prior to the date of calculation for that same customer base. This calculation does not reflect implied monthly subscription and support revenue for new customers added during the one-year period but does include the effect of customers who terminated during the period. We define implied monthly subscription and support revenue as the total amount of minimum subscription and support revenue contractually committed to, under each of our customer agreements over the entire term of the agreement, divided by the number of months in the term of the agreement. At June 30, 2025, our dollar-based net revenue retention rate increased from the quarter ended March 31, 2025 due to the impact of favorable foreign exchange rates. Our ability to maximize the lifetime value of our customer relationships will depend, in part, on the willingness of the customer to purchase additional user licenses and products from us. We rely on our customer success and sales teams to support and grow our existing customers by maintaining high customer satisfaction and educating the customer on the value our products provide.

Number of customers. We believe that our ability to expand our customer base is an indicator of our market penetration and the growth of our business. We define a customer as a company that contributes to our subscription and support revenue as of the measurement date. In situations where an organization has multiple subsidiaries or divisions, each entity that is invoiced as a separate entity is treated as a separate customer. However, where an existing customer requests its invoice be divided for the sole purpose of restructuring its internal billing arrangement without any incremental increase in revenue, such customer continues to be treated as a single customer. For the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, no single customer accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues.

Non-GAAP Income from Operations and Non-GAAP Operating Margin. Non-GAAP income from operations is defined as GAAP income from operations adjusted for amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, change in fair value of contingent consideration, transaction-related costs, legal settlement gains or costs, and restructuring costs. Non-GAAP operating margin is defined as non-GAAP income from operations divided by GAAP revenues. We believe that presenting non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP operating margin is useful to investors as it eliminates the impact of items that have been impacted by our acquisitions and other related costs in order to allow a direct comparison of income from operations between all periods presented.

For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025, our annual estimated effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily as a result of non-deductible officer compensation, stock-based compensation shortfalls, foreign taxes, and changes in our valuation allowance for income taxes.
Current wording
We are subject to federal and state income taxes in the U.S. and taxes in foreign jurisdictions. For the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025, our annual estimated effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily as a result of non-deductible officer compensation, stock-based compensation shortfalls, foreign taxes, and changes in our valuation allowance for income taxes.
Previous wording
For the quarters ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we recorded $6.2 million and $4.3 million in income tax expense, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we recorded $10.8 million and $5.2 million in income tax expense, respectively. The increase in income tax expense for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the prior year comparative periods ended June 30, 2024, resulted primarily from non-deductible officer compensation and stock-based compensation shortfalls, along with changes in valuation allowance and changes in the mix of profitable foreign jurisdictions.
Current wording
For the quarters ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recorded $4.7 million and $2.1 million in income tax expense, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recorded $15.5 million and $7.3 million in income tax expense, respectively. The increase in income tax expense for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2024, resulted primarily from non-deductible officer compensation and stock-based compensation shortfalls, along with changes in the mix of profitable foreign jurisdictions, partially offset by the current quarter’s release of existing valuation allowance with respect to BlackLine K.K. deferred tax assets.
