At the end of the first quarter of 2026, approximately $2.0 billion of revenue was expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations for which goods or services had not been delivered, primarily subscription, software, and software maintenance, and to a lesser extent, hardware and professional services contracts. We expect to recognize $1.4 billion, approximately 70%, of our remaining performance obligations as revenue during the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter.
