The bookings growth was also accomplished by renewals and expansion by four other customers in different verticals. The subscription to one-time revenue split was 85% for the quarter compared to 79% last year, gross margin was 80% upward from 75% from last year and the net retention rate (NRR) was 105%.

The Company has continued to optimize the operational cost structure leveraging investments in AI resulting in a net 15% operating expense reduction from Q2'23 to Q2'24.

The Company also announced today the signing of a multi-year multi-million dollar strategic agreement with Google Cloud. This agreement entails mutual commitment on the development and delivery of advanced AI infrastructure, security and application products. Google Cloud will also co-invest with CXApp Inc. in the continuous deployment, monitoring and modernization of the AI-native CXAI platform.

CXAI seamlessly integrates customer experience (CX) with artificial intelligence (AI) focused around the employee to deliver solutions that transform the way work happens, making workspaces more intuitive and efficient leading to happier and more productive employees.

Khurram Sheikh, Chairman and CEO of CXApp Inc., expressed confidence in the Company's performance and prospects:

"Q2 was a great quarter in cementing our business model and demonstrating the execution of our "land and expand" strategy. We continue to make great progress in shaping the future of work with our largest expansion deal this quarter. This large enterprise client is seeing high adoption of our platform in their pilot deployments at their headquarters in the US and a second major site. We are solving real problems in the work environment for them, and they are now planning to scale up with our AI-native solutions across their enterprise footprint.

Our customers have reposed confidence in the CXAI technology platform and roadmap and their continued commitments with renewals is a testament to our ground-breaking technology and innovative team.
