Business Overview

We develop, sell, deploy, service and maintain software solutions designed to manage supply chains, inventory and omnichannel operations for retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers, logistics providers and other organizations. Our customers include many of the world’s premier and most profitable brands.

Our business model is singularly focused on the development and implementation of complex commerce enablement software solutions that are designed to optimize supply chains, and retail store operations including point-of-sale effectiveness and efficiency for our customers.

We have five principal sources of revenue:

  • cloud subscriptions, including software as a service (SaaS) and hosting of software;
  • licenses of our software;
  • customer support services and software enhancements (collectively, “maintenance”) related to software licenses;
  • professional services, including solutions planning and implementation, related consulting, customer training, and reimbursements from customers for out-of-pocket expenses (collectively, “services”); and
  • hardware sales.

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we generated $272.4 million and $535.2 million in total revenue, respectively. The revenue mix for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was: cloud subscriptions 37%; software license 1%; maintenance 13%; services 47%; and hardware 2%. The revenue mix for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was: cloud subscriptions 36%; software license 2%; maintenance 13%; services 47%; and hardware 2%.

We have three geographic reportable segments: North, Latin and South America (the “Americas”), Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), and Asia-Pacific (APAC). Geographic revenue is based on the location of the sale. Our international revenue was approximately $91.5 million and $183.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, which represents approximately 34% of our total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. International revenue includes all revenue derived from sales to customers outside the United States. At June 30, 2025, we employed approximately 4,480 employees worldwide. We have offices in Australia, Chile, China, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Singapore, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States, as well as representatives in Mexico and reseller partnerships in Latin America, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, South Africa, and Asia.

Future Expectations

We remain cautious regarding the current turbulent global macro environment, which could impact our performance. Our results for the first six months of 2025 exceeded our expectations due to solid demand for our cloud solutions. Our solutions are mission critical, supporting complex global supply chains. We believe that favorable secular tailwinds, such as the digital transformation of businesses in manufacturing, wholesale and retail, coupled with our commitment to investing in organic innovation to deliver leading cloud supply chain, inventory and omnichannel commerce solutions is in alignment with current market demand. We believe this contributed to our strong financial results, higher demand and strong win rates for our solutions for the period. While we are encouraged by our results, we remain cautious regarding the pace of global economic growth. We believe global geopolitical and economic volatility likely will continue to shape customers’ and prospects’ enterprise software buying decisions.

Going forward, we are investing in our cloud business, including enterprise investments in innovation, and strategic operating expenses to support growth objectives.

For the remainder of 2025, our five strategic goals remain to:

  • Focus on employees, customer success and drive sustainable long-term growth;
  • Invest in innovation to expand our products and total addressable market;
  • Expand our Manhattan Active Suite of Cloud Solutions;
  • Develop and grow our cloud business and cloud subscription revenue; and
  • Expand our global sales and marketing teams.

Cloud Subscription

Under our Manhattan Active® Solutions cloud subscription offering, customers pay a periodic fee for the right to use our software within a cloud environment that we provide and manage over a specified period of time. Adoption of our Manhattan Active® cloud solutions continues to increase nicely, with cloud revenue up 22% over the same quarter in the prior year. Cloud revenue represents about 95% of our total software revenue. Customers on our legacy perpetual license program can convert their maintenance contracts to cloud subscription contracts.

Global Economic Trends and Industry Factors

Global macro-economic trends, technology spending, and supply chain management market growth are important barometers for our business. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, approximately 66% of our total revenue was generated in the United States; 19% and 20% in EMEA, respectively; and the remaining balance in APAC, Canada, and Latin America. In addition, Gartner Inc. (“Gartner”), an information technology research and advisory company, estimates that approximately 80% of every supply chain software solutions dollar invested is spent in North America and Western Europe; consequently, the health of the U.S. and the Western European economies have a meaningful impact on our financial results.

We sell technology-based solutions with total pricing, including software and services, in many cases exceeding $1.0 million. Our software is often a part of our customers’ and prospects’ much larger capital commitment associated with facilities expansion and business improvement. We believe that, given the mission critical nature of our software, combined with a challenging global macro environment, our current sales cycles for large cloud subscriptions in our target markets could be extended. While demand for our solutions is solid, the current business climate within the United States and geographic regions in which we operate may affect customers’ and prospects’ decisions regarding timing of strategic capital expenditures.

While we are encouraged by our results, we remain cautious regarding the pace of global economic growth. We believe global geopolitical and economic volatility likely will continue to shape customers’ and prospects’ enterprise software buying decisions.

Key Performance Metrics

We regularly review metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate financial projections and make strategic decisions. We believe cloud subscriptions revenue growth and remaining performance obligation (RPO) growth are the leading indicators of our business performance, primarily derived from cloud subscription fees that customers pay for our Unified Omnichannel Commerce and Digital Supply Chain solutions.

Cloud Subscriptions Revenue Growth

Our cloud revenue growth provides insight into our ability to maintain and grow our cloud customer base. Total cloud revenue increased to $194.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $160.4 million for the same period in the prior year, representing a 22% year-over-year increase. Cloud revenue growth is being driven by strong demand for our cloud offerings.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Transaction price allocated to RPO represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes deferred revenue and non-cancelable amounts that we expect to invoice and recognize as revenue in future periods. Over 98% of our RPO represent cloud native subscriptions with a non-cancelable term greater than one year. Maintenance contracts typically are for one year and not included in RPO. RPO provides insight into our contracted backlog of future business. As of June 30, 2025, our RPO was approximately $2.0 billion, an increase of 26% over June 30, 2024 on strong demand.

Revenue

Cloud Subscriptions and Software License Revenue. In the three months ended June 30, 2025, cloud subscriptions revenue totaled $100.4 million or 37% of total revenues. The Americas, EMEA, and APAC segments recognized $77.3 million, $19.7 million, and $3.4 million in cloud subscriptions revenue, respectively, in the three months ended June 30, 2025. In the six months ended June 30, 2025, cloud subscriptions revenue totaled $194.7 million or 36% of total revenues. The Americas, EMEA, and APAC segments recognized $151.4 million, $36.9 million, and $6.4 million in cloud subscriptions revenue, respectively, in the six months ended June 30, 2025. Cloud subscriptions revenue is recognized over the term of the agreement, typically five years or more. Cloud subscription revenue growth is influenced by the strength of general economic and business conditions and the competitive position of our software products. These revenues generally have long sales cycles.

In the three months ended June 30, 2025, license revenue totaled $1.5 million, or 1% of total revenue. The Americas, EMEA, and APAC segments totaled $0.9 million, $0.3 million, and $0.3 million in license revenue, respectively, in the three months ended June 30, 2025. In the six months ended June 30, 2025, license revenue totaled $10.8 million, or 2% of total revenue. The Americas, EMEA, and APAC segments totaled $2.3 million, $7.9 million, and $0.6 million in license revenue, respectively, in the six months ended June 30, 2025.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, approximately 75% and 60%, respectively, of the total value of new non-cancelable cloud subscriptions (excluding renewals) signed was with new customers, and 25% and 40%, respectively, was with existing customers. We define new customers as entities from which we either have never earned revenue or have not recognized revenue in the last five years.

Our Unified Omnichannel Commerce and Digital Supply Chain solutions are focused on core omnichannel operation (e-commerce, retail store operations and POS), supply chain commerce operations (Warehouse Management, Transportation Management and Labor Management), and Inventory Optimization, which are intensely competitive markets characterized by rapid technological change. We are a market leader in the supply chain management and omnichannel software solutions market as defined by industry analysts such as ARC Advisory Group and Gartner. Our goal is to extend our position as a leading global supply chain solutions provider by growing our cloud subscriptions and software license revenues faster than our competitors through investment in innovation.

Maintenance Revenue. Our maintenance revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025 totaled $35.1 million, or 13% of total revenue. The Americas, EMEA and APAC segments recognized $27.8 million, $5.1 million, and $2.2 million, respectively, in maintenance revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2025. In the six months ended June 30, 2025, maintenance revenue totaled $67.2 million, or 13% of total revenue. The Americas, EMEA, and APAC segments totaled $53.7 million, $9.2 million, and $4.3 million in maintenance revenue, respectively, in the six months ended June 30, 2025. For maintenance, we offer a comprehensive 24 hours per day, 365 days per year program that provides our customers with software upgrades, when and if available, which include additional or improved functionality and technological advances incorporating emerging supply chain and industry initiatives.

Maintenance relates to our legacy perpetual license sales. We expect maintenance revenues to decline as we continue to develop our cloud offerings, and be offset by additional cloud revenue, including from customers converting their maintenance contracts to cloud subscriptions. The growth of maintenance revenues is influenced by: (1) new software license revenue growth; (2) annual renewal of support contracts; and (3) fluctuations in currency rates. Substantially all of our customers renew their annual support contracts or convert their maintenance contracts to cloud subscriptions. Maintenance revenue is generally paid in advance and recognized over the term of the agreement, typically twelve months. Maintenance renewal revenue is recognized over the renewal period once we have a contract upon payment from the customer.

Services Revenue. In the three months ended June 30, 2025, our services revenue totaled $128.9 million, or 47% of total revenue. The Americas, EMEA, and APAC segments recognized $94.2 million, $27.1 million, and $7.6 million, respectively, in services revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2025. In the six months ended June 30, 2025, services revenue totaled $250.0 million, or 47% of total revenue. The Americas, EMEA, and APAC segments totaled $181.7 million, $53.5 million, and $14.8 million in services revenue, respectively, in the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Our professional services organization provides our customers with expertise and assistance in planning and implementing our solutions. To ensure a successful product implementation, consultants assist customers with the initial implementation of a system or service, the conversion and transfer of the customer’s historical data to the new system or service, and ongoing training, education, and system/service upgrades. We believe our professional services enable customers to implement our software rapidly, ensure the customer’s success with our solutions, strengthen our customer relationships, and add to our industry-specific knowledge base for use in future implementations and product innovations.

Although our professional services are optional, the majority of our customers use at least some portion of these services for their planning, implementation, or related needs. Professional services are typically rendered under time and materials-based contracts with services typically billed on an hourly basis. Professional services are sometimes rendered under fixed-fee based contracts with payments due on specific dates or milestones.

Services revenue growth is contingent upon cloud sales and customer upgrade cycles, which are influenced by the strength of general economic and business conditions and the competitive position of our software products. In addition, our professional services business has competitive exposure to offshore providers and other consulting companies.

Hardware Revenue. Our hardware revenue, which we recognize net of related costs, totaled $6.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025 representing 2% of total revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, hardware revenue totaled $12.4 million, or 2% of total revenue. As a convenience for our cloud and software customers, we resell a variety of hardware products developed and manufactured by third parties. These products include computer hardware, radio frequency terminal networks, RFID chip readers, bar code printers and scanners, and other peripherals. We resell all third-party hardware products and related maintenance pursuant to agreements with manufacturers or through distributor-authorized reseller agreements, pursuant to which we are entitled to purchase hardware products and services at discount prices. We generally purchase hardware from our vendors only after receiving an order from a customer. As a result, we do not maintain hardware inventory.

Product Development

We continue to invest significantly in research and development (R&D) to provide leading Unified Omnichannel Commerce and Digital Supply Chain solutions to enable global retailers, manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, and logistics providers to successfully manage accelerating and fluctuating demands as well as the increasing complexity and volatility of their local and global supply chains, retail store operations and points of sale. Our R&D expenses were $34.9 million and $70.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

We expect to continue to focus our R&D resources on the development and enhancement of our core supply chain, inventory optimization, omnichannel and point-of-sale software solutions. We offer what we believe to be the broadest solutions portfolio in the supply chain solutions marketplace, addressing all aspects of inventory optimization, transportation management, distribution management, planning, and omnichannel operations including order management, store inventory & fulfillment, call center and point-of-sale.

We also plan to continue to enhance our existing solutions and to introduce new solutions to address evolving industry standards and market needs. We identify opportunities to further enhance our solutions and to develop and provide new solutions through our customer support organization, as well as through ongoing customer consulting engagements and implementations, interactions with our user groups, association with leading industry analysts and market research firms, and participation in industry standards and research committees. Our solutions address the needs of customers in various vertical markets, including retail, consumer goods, food and grocery, logistics service providers, industrial and wholesale, high technology and electronics, life sciences, and government.

Cash Flow and Financial Condition

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we generated cash flow from operating activities of $74.0 million and $149.3 million, respectively. Our cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2025 totaled $230.6 million, with no debt. We currently have no credit facilities. Our primary uses of cash have been for funding investments in R&D in our Unified Omnichannel Commerce and Digital Supply Chain solutions to drive revenue and earnings growth. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased approximately $149.6 million of Manhattan Associates’ outstanding common stock under the share repurchase program approved by our Board of Directors. In July 2025, our Board of Directors approved replenishing the Company’s remaining share repurchase authority to an aggregate of $100.0 million of our common stock.

For the remainder of 2025, we expect our first priority for use of cash will continue to be investments in our Unified Omnichannel Commerce and Digital Supply Chain solutions. We also expect to prioritize capital allocation in our global teams to fund growth and share repurchases. We do not anticipate any borrowing requirements in 2025 for general corporate purposes.

Cloud Subscriptions Revenue. In the second quarter of 2025, cloud subscriptions revenue increased $18.1 million compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Our customers have demonstrated a clear preference for cloud-based solutions, including existing customers that are migrating from on-premise to cloud-based offerings. Cloud subscriptions revenue for the Americas, EMEA and APAC segments increased $12.6 million, $4.3 million and $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2025, respectively.

Software License Revenue. Software license revenue decreased $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same quarter in the prior year. The perpetual license sales percentage mix across our product suite in the second quarter ended June 30, 2025 was over 90% warehouse management solutions.

Maintenance Revenue. Maintenance revenue decreased $0.2 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Maintenance revenue decreased by $0.8 million for the Americas segment and increased by $0.5 million and $0.1 million for the EMEA and APAC segments, respectively. Maintenance relates to our perpetual software licenses.

Services Revenue. Services revenue decreased $7.9 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Services revenue for the Americas and APAC segments decreased $8.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, partially offset by the $0.6 million increase for the EMEA segment, compared to the same quarter in the prior year. The decrease in services revenue is primarily driven by customer budgetary constraints that shifted services work to future periods which negatively impacted our professional services revenue related to cloud subscriptions. The percentage of professional services revenue that relates to cloud subscriptions in the second quarter of 2025 and 2024 was approximately 76% and 75%, respectively. The remainder of our professional services revenue relates to implementations, ongoing support, and upgrades of licensed software.

Hardware Revenue. Hardware sales decreased $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same quarter in the prior year. The majority of our hardware revenue is derived from our Americas segment. Sales of hardware is largely dependent upon customer-specific desires, which fluctuate.

Cost of Revenue

Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 2024 % Change vs. Prior Year
Cost of cloud subscriptions, maintenance and services 115,921 119,696 -3%
Cost of software license $294 $345 -15%
Total cost of revenue $116,215 $120,041 -3%

Cost of Cloud Subscriptions, Maintenance and Services. Costs of cloud subscriptions, maintenance and services consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses of employees dedicated to cloud subscriptions; maintenance services; and professional and technical services as well as hosting fees. The $3.8 million decrease in the quarter ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same quarter in the prior year was due to a $3.3 million decrease in performance-based compensation expense, a $2.1 million decrease in compensation and other personnel-related expenses, and a $0.9 million decrease in travel expense, partially offset by a $2.7 million increase in computer infrastructure cost. The decrease in compensation cost is due to our reduction in headcount to align our services capacity with customer demand.

Cost of Software License. Cost of software license consists of the costs associated with software reproduction; media, packaging and delivery; documentation, and other related costs; and royalties on third-party software sold with or as part of our products. Cost of software license remained relatively flat in the second quarter of 2025 compared with the same quarter in the prior year.

G&A expenses increased $4.9 million in the current year quarter compared to the same quarter in the prior year primarily due to a $3.0 million of ongoing expense related to an unusual health insurance claim and $1.8 million of compensation and other personnel-related expenses.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization of intangibles and software expense for the second quarter of 2025 and 2024 was $1.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

Operating Income

Operating income in the second quarter of 2025 was $73.8 million compared to $68.2 million in the same quarter in the prior year. Operating margin was 27.1% for the second quarter of 2025 versus 25.7% for the same quarter in the prior year. Operating income and margin increased primarily due to increased cloud subscriptions revenue.

Other Income and Income Taxes

(in thousands)

Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 2024 % Change vs. Prior Year
Other income, net $715 $914 -22%
Income tax provision 17,723 16,336 8%

Other income, net. Other income, net primarily includes interest income, foreign currency gains and losses, and other non-operating expenses. Other income, net decreased $0.2 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same quarter in the prior year due to a $0.7 million decrease in interest income, partially offset by a $0.5 million decrease in foreign currency losses. The decrease of foreign currency losses is mainly due to gains or losses on intercompany transactions denominated in foreign currencies with subsidiaries due to the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar relative to other foreign currencies, primarily the Indian Rupee. We recorded net foreign currency losses of $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2025, and $0.6 million of net foreign currency losses in the same quarter in the prior year.

Income tax provision. Our effective income tax rate was 23.8% and 23.6% for the quarters ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2025 is due to a decrease of excess tax benefits on restricted stock awards that vested during the quarter.

Revenue

Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 2024 % Change vs. Prior Year % of Total Revenue 2025 2024

Cloud Subscription Revenue. Cloud subscriptions revenue increased $34.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year. Customers have demonstrated a clear preference for cloud-based solutions, including existing customers that are migrating from on-premise to cloud-based offerings. Cloud subscriptions revenue for the Americas, EMEA and APAC segments increased $25.6 million, $7.0 million and $1.7 million, respectively, in the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Software License Revenue. Software license revenue increased $4.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year predominantly driven by one large contract with an existing customer. The license sales percentage mix across our product suite in the six months ended June 30, 2025 was over 70% warehouse management solutions.

Maintenance Revenue. Maintenance revenue decreased $3.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year. Maintenance revenue for the Americas and APAC segments decreased by $2.8 million and $0.3 million respectively, and the EMEA segment increased by $0.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Services Revenue. Services revenue decreased $19.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year. Services revenue for the Americas segment decreased $19.9 million, and the APAC and EMEA segments increased $0.8 million and $0.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, compared with the same period in the prior year. The decrease in services revenue is primarily driven by customer budgetary constraints that shifted services work to future periods, which negatively impacted our professional services revenue related to cloud subscriptions. The percentage of professional services revenue that relates to cloud subscriptions in the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was approximately 75% and 74%, respectively. The remainder of our professional services revenue relates to implementations, ongoing support, and upgrades of licensed software.

Hardware Revenue. Hardware revenue decreased $1.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year. The majority of our hardware revenue is derived from our Americas segment. Sales of hardware is largely dependent upon customer-specific desires, which fluctuate.

Cost of cloud subscriptions, maintenance and services 230,279 238,651 -4%
Cost of software license $503 $677 -26%
Total cost of revenue $230,782 $239,328 -4%

Cost of Cloud Subscriptions, Maintenance and Services. Costs of cloud subscriptions, maintenance and services consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses of employees dedicated to cloud operations; maintenance services; and professional and technical services as well as hosting fees. The $8.4 million decrease in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year was principally due to a $6.8 million decrease in compensation and other personnel-related expenses, a $4.1 million decrease in performance-based compensation expense, and a $1.6 million decrease in travel expenses, partially offset by a $4.6 million increase in computer infrastructure cost.

Cost of Software License. Cost of software license consists of the costs associated with software reproduction; media, packaging and delivery; documentation, and other related costs; and royalties on third-party software sold with or as part of our products. Cost of software license remained relatively flat in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared with the same period in the prior year.

Sales and marketing expenses increased $2.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to a $1.3 million increase in marketing and campaign programs, a $0.3 million increase in compensation and other personnel related expenses, and a $0.2 million increase in professional fees.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased $7.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to a signing bonus of $3.0 million, recruiting fees of $0.7 million, and additional stock compensation expense of $4.1 million for the hiring of our new chief executive officer.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization of intangibles and software expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $3.1 million and $3.0 million, respectively.

Restructuring Expense. In January 2025, the Company eliminated approximately 100 positions to align our services capacity with customer demand which has been impacted by short-term macro-economic uncertainty. The Company recorded a restructuring expense of approximately $2.9 million pretax ($2.2 million after-tax or $0.04 per fully diluted share) in the six months ended June 30, 2025. The expense primarily consists of employee severance and outplacement services. The expense is classified in “Restructuring expense” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $137.0 million compared to $125.8 million for the same period in the prior year. Operating margin was 25.6% the first six months of 2025 versus 24.2% for the same period in the prior year.

Other Income and Income Taxes

(in thousands)

Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 2024 % Change vs. Prior Year
Other income, net $2,052 $1,910 7%
Income tax provision 29,650 21,161 40%

Other income, net. Other income, net increased $0.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to a $1.2 million increase in foreign currency gains, offset by a $1.0 million decrease in interest income. The increase of foreign currency gains is mainly due to gains or losses on intercompany transactions denominated in foreign currencies with subsidiaries due to the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar relative to other foreign currencies, primarily the Indian Rupee. We recorded net foreign currency losses of $1.1 million and $1.1 million in the first six months of 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Income tax provision. Our effective income tax rate was 21.3% and 16.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 is due to a decrease of excess tax benefits on restricted stock vesting.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the first six months of 2025, we funded our business exclusively through cash generated from operations. Our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2025 included $138.4 million held in the U.S. and $92.2 million held by our foreign subsidiaries. We believe that our cash balances in the U.S. are sufficient to fund our U.S. operations. In the future, if we elect to repatriate the unremitted earnings of our foreign subsidiaries, we would not be subject to additional U.S. income taxes on such earnings, but we could be subject to additional local withholding taxes.

Cash flow from operating activities totaled $149.3 million and $128.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Typical factors affecting our cash provided by operating activities include our level of revenue and earnings for the period, the timing and amount of employee bonus and income tax payments, and the timing of cash collections from our customers which is our primary source of operating cash flow. Cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased $21.3 million compared to the same period in the prior year, which is mainly due the timing of cash collections from our customers.

Cash flow used in investing activities totaled $4.9 million and $4.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Our investing activities for both the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 consisted of capital spending to support company growth.

Financing activities used cash of $186.6 million and $189.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The principal use of cash for financing activities in both periods was to purchase our common stock, including shares withheld for taxes due upon vesting of restricted stock. Repurchases of our common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 totaled $186.6 million and $189.5 million, respectively, including shares withheld for taxes of $37.0 million and $41.1 million, respectively.

Periodically, opportunities may arise to grow our business through the acquisition of complementary products, and technologies. Any material acquisition could result in a decrease to our working capital depending on the amount, timing, and nature of the consideration to be paid. We believe that our existing cash will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs at least for the next twelve months, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case. For the remainder of 2025, we anticipate that our priorities for use of cash will be similar to prior years, with our first priority being continued investment in product development and profitably investing in our business to extend our market leadership. We will continue to weigh our share repurchase options against cash for acquisitions and investing in the business. We will also continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities that are complementary to our product footprint and technology direction. At this time, we do not anticipate any borrowing requirements for the remainder of 2025 for general corporate purposes.

Aggregate Contractual Obligations

Our principal commitments consist of multiple non-cancellable contracts for cloud infrastructure services and obligations under operating leases. As of June 30, 2025, our cloud infrastructure obligations are approximately $219.2 million over the next 5 years. We also enter into non-cancellable subscriptions in the ordinary course of business for internal software to support our operations. Our obligations, as of June 30, 2025, are approximately $28.7 million over the next 7 years. We expect to fulfill all these commitments from our working capital.
