Hello, everyone, and welcome to the Q3 2022 OneSpan Earnings Conference Call. My name is Nadia, and I will be coordinating the call today. (Operator Instructions)
I will now hand over to your host, Joe Maxa, Vice President of Investor Relations to begin. Joe, please go ahead.
Joseph Anderson Maxa - VP of IR
Thank you, operator. Hello, everyone, and thank you for joining the OneSpan third quarter 2022 earnings conference call. This call is being webcast and can be accessed on the Investor Relations section of OneSpan's website at investors.onespan.com.
Joining me on the call today is Matt Moynahan, our Chief Executive Officer; and Jorge Martell, who joined as our new Chief Financial Officer in early September. This afternoon, after market close, OneSpan issued a press release announcing results for our third quarter 2022.

I will now turn the call over to Matt.
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
Thank you, Joe. Hello, everyone. Welcome to our third quarter earnings call. I'm pleased to begin today's call by welcoming Jorge Martell to the OneSpan team as our new Chief Financial Officer. Jorge is a well-rounded and operationally focused CFO, with strong experience in global finance. He joined us from Extreme Reach, a global leader in creative logistics with an end-to-end cloud-based technology platform, where he was instrumental in the execution of the company's organic and inorganic global growth strategy. Jorge is another great addition to our transformational leadership team as we focus our strategic plan to drive increased growth and profitability over the coming years.
Now turning to our third quarter financial highlights. We had a strong quarter overall, including record bookings in Digital Agreements driven by several customers committing to longer-term contracts, given the enterprise-class quality of our solution. As a result, total company bookings were at the highest level in 8 years. Protecting high-value, high assurance B2B and B2C transactions remains a high priority for our customers, even in a challenging macroeconomic environment.
Bookings strength was broad-based across North America and most of Europe, though we did see some pockets in Europe and Asia where sales cycles lightened. Total revenue in the quarter grew 9% year-over-year to $57 million, notwithstanding approximately $4.5 million of foreign currency headwinds. Adjusted for constant currency, revenue grew 18%.
Annual recurring revenue grew 14%. Excluding the FX impact of approximately $3 million, ARR grew 17%, in line with our full year 2022 guidance range. In addition to FX, ARR was impacted by timing of contract renewals and certain customers adjusting their purchase volumes to reflect post-pandemic normalized levels. We were profitable on an adjusted EBITDA basis, which benefited from operating efficiencies and ongoing cost-saving initiatives as compared to prior quarters.
Next, I want to briefly discuss 2 important 7-figure ARR e-signature contract wins during the quarter. Both were competitive enterprise expansion deals with existing Digital Agreement customers, which resulted in significant increases in ACV, TCV and contract duration. The first one was with the leader in cloud banking software. This customer increased its contract length with us from 1 year to 3 years and its TCV by nearly 4x.
The second one was with a large insurance and wealth management firm that increased its contract length from 3 years to 5 years and its TCV by nearly 3x. Both of these large contracts highlight the strength and reliability of our enterprise-grade e-signature solution and demonstrate the land-and-expand paradigm we are emphasizing internally.
In our Security Solutions segment, demand for mobile security and server solutions continue to be strong, driven by ongoing escalation in mobile fraud attacks. Digipass bookings were also strong at their highest level in 3 years as customers placed orders earlier than typical to compensate for increased lead times related to electronic component shortages. We are also pleased that our Mobile Security Suite won the 2022 SC Award for Best Mobile Security Solution during the quarter.
Now I'll spend a few minutes on the progress we are making on our strategic transformation plan. As we've mentioned before, a key part of our transformation has been the continual strengthening of our executive leadership team to bring scale experience to the company. I am pleased to tell you that with the recent additions of Jorge, CFO, and Stuti Bhargava as our first Chief Customer Experience Officer, this important milestone is largely complete.
I continue to hold the dual role of CEO and Chief Revenue Officer as we transform the company, train and enable our sales team to sell all of our solutions and add to our talent base. We anticipate filling the Chief Revenue Officer role by the end of the year. Since our Investor Day in mid-May, we increased our direct sales force by approximately 20% and believe we are on track to double the team by the end of 2023. Although the labor market remains challenging, we have found success hiring experienced and highly qualified individuals, many of whom come from cybersecurity and Digital Agreements companies.
I've been meeting with evaluating and personally approving every sales candidate we hire. And I can tell you our message is resonating as candidates are universally excited about our market positioning and growth strategy. Not only we've been hard at work ramping our sales and marketing efforts, during Q3, we made solid progress unifying our go-to-market strategy to enable the sales team to sell our entire solution portfolio across our 5 product pillars: verify, authenticate, interact, transact and store.
In addition, the realignment and go-to-market focus around our OneSpan 1000 program, which prioritizes growth at our largest 1,000 enterprise and target accounts is nearly complete. And we launched multiple orchestrated account-based sales and marketing campaigns for both our Digital Agreements and Security Solutions segments.
As I mentioned in past quarters, new logo acquisition and demand generation continue to be key priorities for the company. We continue to make investments in our sales and marketing engine to increase the pace of new customer acquisition. We also recently launched a Virtual Room as part of our plan to provide new innovative solutions to customers, and we'll be launching our next-generation cloud connected Digipass device in the near future.
As a reminder, Virtual Room is a white-labeled solution that enables companies to engage with their customers to provide high-touch digital customer assistance, as well as execute agreements and transactions in the secure face-to-face virtual environment. Virtual Room is gaining interest from our target customers to enable secure use cases like wealth management, private banking and capital markets. Our go-forward strategy is resonating with customers and employees around the globe.
We are adding new enterprise-class solutions to our portfolio, and we're increasing our sales force and expanding our go-to-market capabilities to take advantage of the opportunities we see ahead. Our vision is that the world of digital agreement processes will evolve to require security throughout the entire transaction life cycle, not just at the point of authentication. This is the basis for our OneSpan transaction cloud platform strategy. We will continue to update you as we introduce new solutions and make progress on our strategic plan.
I will now turn the call over to Jorge to take you through our third quarter financials. Jorge?
Jorge Garcia Martell - CFO
Thank you, Matt, and good afternoon, everybody. I'm really excited to be a part of OneSpan and the new management team and look forward to helping drive growth as we implement our strategic plan. I hope to meet all of you face-to-face in the near future.
I'm pleased that we reported a strong quarter from our top and bottom line, largely driven by improved operational discipline and execution in the business. ARR grew 14% year-over-year to $136 million. ARR specific to subscription contracts grew 25% to $101 million and accounted for approximately 75% of total ARR. Dollar-based net expansion or DBNE, which we define as the year-over-year growth in ARR from existing customers was 109%.
DBNE was impacted by FX, longer sales cycles in certain international regions, timing related to contract renewals and some customers rightsizing their volumes to reflect post-pandemic levels. Revenue grew 9% to $57.1 million, led by 25% growth in subscription revenue to $22.3 million and 11% growth in Digipass tokens to $19.8 million. We also experienced a 1% growth in maintenance revenue. These revenue increases were partially offset as a result of our security software license transition from perpetual to term, which is included in professional services and other revenue.
Gross margin was 67% compared to the prior quarter and compared to 70% in the third quarter of last year. And I'll provide additional color by segment in a couple of minutes. GAAP operating loss in the third quarter was $5.6 million. GAAP operating expenses included a $3.8 million impairment charge related to our decision to sunset noncore solutions and $2.7 million of nonrecurring items related to our restructuring plan.
Operating expenses benefited from our cost reduction plans, increased R&D software capitalization costs and by approximately $3 million from changes in FX as compared to last year. Regarding our cost reduction plan, last quarter, we mentioned Phase 1 was substantially complete with annualized savings of $11.8 million, near the high end of the $10 million to $12 million call for in the plan. We made progress on Phase 2 of the plan during the third quarter.
Restructuring charges were approximately $2.7 million and annualized savings increased by $3 million to approximately $9 million in total. As a reminder, Phase 2 of the plan calls for total cash charges related to severance and benefit costs associated with headcount reductions of approximately $10 million to $17 million during the period covering the last 3 quarters of 2022 for the year ending 2025. It is also expected to result in approximately $20 million to $25 million in annualized cost savings.
Q3 adjusted EBITDA was $4.5 million or $2.8 million higher than in the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 8% compared to 3% last year. The year-over-year increase in adjusted EBITDA was largely driven by higher revenue, cost reduction initiatives, capitalized software costs and lower-than-anticipated headcount additions due to our challenging labor market.
GAAP net loss per share was $0.18 in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $0.02 in the third quarter of 2021. Non-GAAP earnings per share in the third quarter of 2022, which excludes long-term incentive compensation, amortization, nonrecurring items, including the impairment of intangible assets, restructuring charges and the impact of tax adjustments was $0.03, consistent with the third quarter of last year.
I'll now discuss our Digital Agreements segment quarterly results. Digital Agreements ARR grew 20% (sic) [18%] to $46 million, led by 24% (sic) [23%] growth in subscription ARR to $41 million. Q3 revenue grew 20% to $12.2 million, including 25% growth in subscription revenue to $10.3 million. Similar to last quarter, the vast majority of subscription revenue recognized in the quarter was ratable with the sequential increase influenced by the timing of contract start dates.
Gross margin was 80% compared to 72% last year. The higher gross margin was largely a result of increased scale and efficiencies, combined with a one-time credit from a cloud service provider, resulting in approximately a 6-point benefit. Operating income in Q3 was $2.2 million as compared to $0.1 million last year, increased revenue and gross margin were the primary drivers of the improved performance. As a reminder, our transformation plan is still in its early stages, and we plan to invest for growth in this segment, including the hiring of additional talent to drive top line growth to increase sales and product development.
Turning to our Security Solutions segment quarterly results. ARR grew 11% (sic) [13%] to $90 million, led by 26% (sic) [28%] growth in subscription ARR to $61 million. Subscription revenue grew 25% to $11.9 million, driven primarily by expansion contracts from existing customers for on-premise mobile security and service solutions. Total revenue for this segment grew 7% to $44.9 million, with growth in mobile security, service solutions and Digipass tokens, partially offset by expected decreases in legacy Dealflo and perpetual software-based licenses.
We continue to focus on driving subscription revenue growth. We also continue to see a healthy demand for our Digipass tokens. Last quarter, we noted that supply chain challenges could impact quarterly Digipass revenue by up to $2 million in the second half of this year. While we continue to manage through these challenges, we expect electronic component shortages to delay shipments of certain Digipass [SKUs] from Q4 to the first half of 2023 in the amount of $4 million to $4.5 million.
Security Solutions gross margin was 64% compared to 69% in the same period last year. Factors impacting gross margin included an increase in electronic component prices, product mix and an increase in shipping expenses. Operating income for the segment was $5.7 million and operating margin was 13% as compared to $10.7 million and 25% last year. The primary differences from last year can be attributed to lower gross margin and the $3.8 million impairment charge discussed earlier.
Turning to our balance sheet. We ended up the third quarter of 2022 with $94 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments compared to $98 million at the end of 2021 and at the end of last quarter. We used $2.4 million of cash in operations during the quarter, primarily related to changes in net working capital, and we have no long-term debt. Geographically, our revenue mix by region in the third quarter of 2022 was very consistent with the prior quarter, 45% came from EMEA, 36% from the Americas and 19% from Asia Pacific. This compares to 42%, 34% and 24% from the same regions in the third quarter of last year, respectively.
And with that, I'll turn it back to you, Matt.
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
Thank you, Jorge. We estimate revenue in the first 9 months of 2022 would have been $9 million higher and our revenue growth rate would have been 6 points higher at 11% had currency exchange rates been constant compared to the year ago period. Based on current exchange rates, we expect additional FX pressure in the fourth quarter.
I also want to point out that we made several important portfolio management decisions recently, in line with our strategic plan to focus our efforts on our most relevant solutions as we enter the first year of our strategic plan beginning January 1. The sunsetting of certain assets, including Dealflo, will contribute to revenue and ARR headwinds over the coming quarters, but also enable us to reallocate resources and focus our efforts on our highest growth opportunities.
For the full year 2022, we expect the following: total revenue to meet or exceed full year 2021 revenue despite FX headwinds, ARR to be in the range of 12% to 13%, which is near the bottom of our previous guidance range of 16% to 18% when excluding an estimated FX impact of 3% to 4%, and considering the downstream impact to our business from strategic portfolio changes in the macroeconomic environment, and adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of positive $1 million to $3 million as compared to our prior guidance of negative $5 million to $7 million.
In closing, we believe we have momentum in our strategy and our teams as we head into fiscal year 2023. We have been hard at work over the past 6 months to put in place the foundation of our 3-year plan. This plan includes increased revenue predictability and a more balanced contribution across product lines, business segments and geographies over time. I'm proud of our team and the progress we've made to date. We look forward to updating you again next quarter.
With that, Jorge and I will be happy to take your questions. Operator?
Operator
(Operator Instructions) And our first question today goes to Gray Powell of BTIG.
Gray Wilson Powell - MD & Security and Analytics Software Analyst
Okay. Great. Yes, thanks for taking the questions. I just had a few here. Maybe starting off high level, how do you feel about your pipeline and the visibility you have on demand today versus 6 months ago?
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
Jorge, I'll take this one.
Jorge Garcia Martell - CFO
Yes.
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
I feel actually increasingly good on all the -- can you hear me okay?
Gray Wilson Powell - MD & Security and Analytics Software Analyst
I can hear you. Yes.
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
Okay. All right. Thank you. Sorry. I feel increasingly good with the visibility we have in the operational rigor taking hold really in every part of our business without stop. Obviously, I had dual visibility as CEO and CRO, and I'm very pleased with the teams and the process behind our ability to get visibility, number one, and then [two], multi-quarter visibility going forward.
As you know, key focus and priority for us has been demand generation. And so we continue to focus on that and new logo acquisition is one of our top priorities, which in turn, obviously, drives new pipeline. Our execution on existing customers has been improving. And you do see an increasing portion of our pipeline coming from installed base customers as our sales team is unified now and has the ability to solve the entire portfolio. That said, getting the flywheel spinning on the new logo acquisition, obviously, will take multiple quarters to get that right.
Gray Wilson Powell - MD & Security and Analytics Software Analyst
Okay. That's helpful. And then, I mean, we're still working on some of the moving parts of the model. So hopefully, this question is okay. But can you just kind of help me understand, you had a pretty big revenue beat, in comparison, it looks like ARR was a little bit light. There's the guide down even on a constant currency basis. So can you help us just square those items? Was there some extra term license revenue or longer contract duration or just how should we think about the sustainability of that revenue upside you posted in Q3 because that the headline numbers are pretty good?
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
Yes. So I can take the high level, Jorge, then is there something to add, please do. Obviously, in revenue, we do have the mix component coming from on-premise subscription software and the revenue recognition related with that, as well as our perpetual hardware business, okay? But despite the supply chain issues, we are seeing strong demand for the hardware products. So those 2 pieces are almost a buffer, if you will, on the revenue side of things.
And as we all know, can be lumpy from time to time given the nature of our business, but that works in favor of the revenue line. ARR in this particular case was impacted by a couple of known loss contracts that were in place, but were in effect in Q3. So we felt a little bit of a dampening from that. We did experience some churn in our SMB space as we pivot to the enterprise, and those were 2 of the primary drivers for that.
We also talked about a little bit of a dampening effect on the ability to cross-sell coming from sunset products. Those portfolio decisions that we spoke about over the past couple of quarters are now in effect, and that did have a slight dampening effect on ARR as well given our inability to go cross-sell and upsell end-of-life products. So those are the [3] primary drivers that would give you the difference between the ARR top line performance -- top line performance in the ARR.
Gray Wilson Powell - MD & Security and Analytics Software Analyst
Understood. Okay.
Operator
And our next question goes to Anja Soderstrom of Sidoti.
Anja Marie Theresa Soderstrom - Senior Equity Research Analyst
Yes. Congratulations on the good progress you appear to be making. You're mentioning that sales cycles are getting a little bit longer in some regions. Can you just elaborate on that, what you're seeing there? And sort of if you think that's going to be affecting other regions as well as we go forward?
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
Sure. Just at a high level, if you look at our portfolio, I'd say the lengthening sales cycles are more associated with the digital agreement side than the security software side. In fact, we're seeing good demand for the tokens. We had obviously a difficult time meeting that demand with supply chain constraints. The security software products continue to do well, given that they are largely tied to online banking and the authentication and then the verification of online banking end users.
And so that's a very -- that's a positive for us. The Digital Agreement business is really think of it as a mix between internal use cases with things like NDAs and internal documentation and business processes, and external use cases that are typically used with external customer engagements, think of it as mortgage lending, refinance. We also have a healthy business with being integrated into platforms given our private label capability.
The internal projects from time to time depending on customer, we have seen some lengthened sales cycles as CIOs look to reduce the top priorities inside of companies given the macroeconomic environment, and the external use cases that are customer-facing, we have seen some downstream impacts of transaction volumes lessening, which might impact a larger upsell or a purchase that renewal or a contract expansion midyear. So think of it as a tale of 2 cities, internal with regard to the internal projects measure up to the -- to a reduced waterline as far as the corporate priorities in the macroeconomic environment, then the external use cases being tied to transactions like mortgages and refinance. And so that's just introduced some of a pause in our customer base, particularly mortgage-related and insurance-related verticals.
Anja Marie Theresa Soderstrom - Senior Equity Research Analyst
Okay. And then in terms of expanding your sales team, you've been hiring pretty aggressively. Can you talk to how fast do you think they're going to become productive? How long is the training cycle for new reps?
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
Yes, that is a great question. It's something we're hard at work at, which is a global enablement. We enabled North America in Q2. I was over in Europe personally for the European enablement session, and then we'll do APAC in Q4, and we have our sales kickoff with a high percentage of content of enablement in January. So this is an ongoing process.
We are tracking to plan slightly behind hiring on the sales force, but we believe we're tracking to plan to double the sales force by the end of next year. And so as I discussed when we rolled out the plan in May, the 3 significant variables for us to go drive over-performance in the plan are getting the sales team productive, the time to ramp, the quota attainment, the quota levels themselves and deal size. And so I feel good with the enablement efforts that have been taking place, but we have to go see those sellers in action as we enter into FY '23. It's all very new right now, but I feel comfortable with the rate and pace of the enablement and now we need our top sellers to go out there and do a great job for us.
Anja Marie Theresa Soderstrom - Senior Equity Research Analyst
And how do you -- what's the kind of churn and how that changed in recent months?
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
We had a couple of contracts that were known churn and that manifested themselves this quarter, that was one of the areas of contribution to the dampening effect on ARR. We are new essentially to the SMB space from a cloud infrastructure standpoint. And we did experience some churn in the S of that segment, the small business. Our focus has been on historically on the enterprise, and that's where another dampening effect took place in the SMB. Nothing chronic, but we did have those 2 one-off situations manifest themselves in Q3. No major trend, no major change to the trend line.
Anja Marie Theresa Soderstrom - Senior Equity Research Analyst
Okay. And just one last one. What's the upside, what's driving the upside in your adjusted EBITDA guidance versus the previous guidance?
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
Jorge, do you want to speak to that?
Jorge Garcia Martell - CFO
I can take this one. Yes, I can take one -- I can take this one. Can you hear me okay?
Anja Marie Theresa Soderstrom - Senior Equity Research Analyst
Yes.
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
Yes.
Jorge Garcia Martell - CFO
Okay. So I think there's a couple of factors here. One is our discipline -- financial discipline that we've been executing over the past few months that has impacted, obviously, the operations, some cost discipline on capitalized software expenses is one for sure. The other portion is also headcount related as some of the restructuring initiatives that we had been talking about, you're starting to see that impact, that benefit roll through sequentially as well. And then there's a little bit of upside as well with hiring, the latest hires, I would say, with respect to certain areas, certain pockets of different departments. I think those are the 3 largest ones, yes, that I can comment on.
Operator
And the next question goes to Rudy Kessinger of D.A. Davidson.
Rudy Grayson Kessinger - Senior VP & Senior Research Analyst
I want to go back to Gray's question first just on the revenue upside in the quarter. Is there any finer point you can put on the term license mix in the quarter, were either of those 2 large e-signature renewals that you called out term license? It's just still a tough model to grasp with subscription and Digital Agreements up 18% quarter-over-quarter and the maintenance and support was up sequentially too. So how much of that was driven by license?
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
Yes. We had a couple of significant contracts that closed at the end of Q2. And as you know, Rudy, the way that the subscription models slowed, they didn't really have much of an impact in Q2. So I think that's another element where we had 2 contracts closed at the end of Q2 that manifest themselves in Q3 from a top line perspective.
But there's no major departures other than the only comment I can really make is that we will experience lumpiness from time to time given the product mix that we have at the moment, which still has a heavy on-premise component on the security software side. And on the Digital Agreement side, we still have that large deal phenomenon as we give it to the enterprise where they have an overweighted impact on any given quarter. And I don't anticipate that to change over the next 2 quarters to 3 quarters until we get the flywheel spinning on the new logo acquisition.
Rudy Grayson Kessinger - Senior VP & Senior Research Analyst
Okay. And then on the dollar-based net expansion rate, 109% down to 7 points from 116% last quarter. Going by the definition of that figure, gross churn shouldn't be impacting that number. So a 7-point decline quarter-over-quarter again. So just any finer points you could put on why such a pretty significant drop off in that metric?
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
Do you want to take that, Jorge -- well, let me speak to that, let me speak to one of the dampers which you mentioned, Rudy, is the -- some of the sunsetting decisions -- some of the sunset decisions on the portfolio management, we did sunset Dealflo, we did sunset Risk Analytics, and we did sunset the on-premise version of our Digital Agreements. All 3 of those products had pipeline associated with them, de minimis in the big scheme of things, but in order of single digits to mid-single digits of millions of pipeline that was in play.
And obviously, when customers hear of an end-of-life decision, that does impact the purchase decision understandably. Many of those conversations have converted into discussions around other products, but those products were not as generally available for cross-selling into the installed base that we had, which obviously has a higher percentage of banking customers than at this particular time. So that was one of the meaningful reasons that impacted that decline quarter-over-quarter.
Rudy Grayson Kessinger - Senior VP & Senior Research Analyst
Okay. And then just lastly for me. It looks like you didn't buy back any stock in the quarter after you spent $5.7 million buying back stock in Q2. Just what was the thought process behind that decision, especially if you consider that the stock was trading down in the $8 to $9 range in September, why not buy back any stock in the quarter?
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
Yes, at a high level, we continue to evaluate that, and obviously, we do believe the stock is at an attractive level. We took a pause as we put a fine point. Obviously, as you know, we've rolled out the new strategy to the investment community in May and have been very hard at work building out a corporate development strategy to support that, including M&A.
And we felt it was prudent to take a pause to make sure that we had all of our corporate allocation sources and uses aligned before going further on that. But certainly, we do believe the stock is a very attractive valuation, and there's always an opportunity for us to reenter the market at current levels. And so that's a continuous discussion with the Board.
Rudy Grayson Kessinger - Senior VP & Senior Research Analyst
Got it. That's it for me.
Operator
(Operator Instructions) And our next question goes to Nick Mattiacci of Craig-Hallum.
Nicholas Paul Mattiacci - Associate Analyst
This is Nick on for Chad Bennett. So as we think about the 3-year CAGR targets given in May, I guess given how much has changed in the macro and with FX and now the updated ARR guidance for this year, are you thinking about the linearity of that 3-year targeted CAGR any differently?
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
At the moment, we are not. The big factor here, given our size is really the ramping up the sales and marketing efforts in that front event. I do -- I do feel very good about the enterprise class nature of our products. And when we do land enterprise customers, they behave like enterprises would, both in terms of deal size and contract line.
And so right now, no change to our guidance. I feel very comfortable with where we're at. But obviously, the first half of next year is incredibly important for us to see the productivity of our selling community and the deal sizes as we reorient the company to the upper half of the pyramid. So no change in guidance right now.
Nicholas Paul Mattiacci - Associate Analyst
Got it. And then maybe if you could expand more on the upcoming launch of the cloud connected Digipass token? I guess any more color you could give on that offering? And if that may change the revenue recognition of hardware sales or add a recurring component to that business?
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
It will be launched with the ratable recognition model associated with it. So when we do launch the cloud connected device, it will be pure ARR in the traditional sense, it's a service, it's not a piece of hardware anymore. I'm very much looking forward to getting this device into the market. Historically, as many of you know, hardware was sold by a separate sales team and separate sales motion to a portion of our installed base. With the unified go-to-market, we do intend on taking this cloud connected device and connecting it to everything.
Our firm belief is that the high assurance security for transactions that require it, whether it be a document or a banking transaction, may be able to take advantage of this capability, certainly, the Digital Agreements process, the Virtual Room product, which we just relaunched, as well as our traditional banking core. We haven't -- we do plan on making a announcement soon on that product.
And given the supply chain element and the uptake with it, this will obviously be a multi-quarter journey for us as we go and engage our sellers on what is a new business model, but one that we're seeing very favorable response from our installed base customers. But we haven't talked much further than that, and we don't get product line guidance on this. So happy to take you offline and talk about some of the dynamics. But you'll see some -- you'll see more information coming on that soon.
Operator
Thank you. We have no further questions. I'll hand back to Matt for any closing remarks.
Matthew P. Moynahan - President, CEO & Director
I'd like to thank everyone for joining for this call. We appreciate you going along on this journey with us. And we look forward to updating you again in 1 quarter's time. Thank you for your time today.
Operator
Thank you. This concludes today's call. Thank you all for joining. You may now disconnect your lines.
