Good morning, everyone, thank you for joining us on our first quarter 2023 earnings call today. We are thrilled to kick off the new year with an excellent first quarter that showcases the strength and resilience of our business model. EngageSmart delivered our seventh consecutive quarter of record revenue, which is $88.4 million, representing 31% year-over-year growth, all organic, and record adjusted EBITDA of $17.3 million, which is an adjusted EBITDA margin of 19.6%. Our teammates' hard work and unwavering dedication to excellence have been instrumental in driving our success and enabling us to deliver exceptional value for our customers. Throughout the first quarter, we continued to see sustained demand and favorable secular trends across both segments of our business. We also continued to make progress in driving product innovation, further solidifying our market position. As we move forward in 2023, our focus on simplifying customer and client engagement is paying off. We continue to expand our reach across all verticals. Before Cassandra dives deeper into the details of our financial performance and our outlook for 2023, I'd like to share some first quarter highlights. The high demand for mental health care and the shortage of professionals presents a unique opportunity for our SMB segment to make a meaningful and positive impact. Driven by new customer adds and favorable transaction revenue, SMB achieved revenue growth of 36% in the first quarter. Our Enterprise segment is well-positioned to capitalize on the long-term trend of organizations digitizing their operations, providing a steady tailwind for growth. Enterprise delivered revenue growth of 25%, fueled by strength in digital payment and paperless adoption and continued customer go lives this quarter. Our growth strategy in SMB has two main elements and is showing great traction. The first element of our strategy centers on our core mental health vertical, where we see a growing need for care due to the prevalence of mental health disorders. According to the American Psychological Association, 45% of psychologists agreed or strongly agreed that they felt burnt out in 2022, highlighting the strain on the industry. SimplePractice presents a unique opportunity to address this challenge. By streamlining administrative functions, SimplePractice gives practitioners time to focus on what they care most about, treating their patients. The second element of our strategy targets group practices, which we see as a significant growth opportunity. We continue to see traction with this area in Q1, particularly among small group practices. These are an excellent fit for us, given our track record of helping solo practitioners expand their businesses with our comprehensive solution. We continue to invest in developing new features and functionality to cater to the needs of both small and large group practices and are encouraged by our progress with both. We continue to see strong market expansion growth, particularly with speech-language pathologists and occupational therapists. One of the keys to SimplePractice's success is its ability to build and foster a community around its platform. Our customers don't just need a software solution, but also a supportive community that can help them succeed in their practices. We've taken this approach to heart and are investing to create resources that bring our customers together. In a recent survey of over 900 practitioners, we found that 75% say that mentorship is a critical aspect to their career success, but only 25% currently have a mentor. With our vast network of over 169,000 mental health and wellness practitioners, we are uniquely positioned to address this gap and connect practitioners with peer support. In March, we launched a pilot 50-member mentorship program, and the interest we saw was enormous. In fact, we received over 10 times the number of applicants than we had room for. We are excited about initiatives like this as they help us expand our community, bring new practitioners into SimplePractice, and enable us to grow our brand. We are committed to making mental health care more accessible. Our newest offering, SimplePractice Enterprise, is an extension of that mission. We believe our practitioner network has the potential to be particularly valuable for Employee Assistance Programs, or EAPs, and Managed Care Organizations, or MCOs, which often struggle to find therapists for their network. By providing easy scheduling with our existing practitioners, SimplePractice Enterprise can address systemic issues regarding therapist supply while also improving efficiency. SimplePractice Enterprise also strengthens our flywheel by expanding our in-network practitioner base and growing our patient and practitioner community. We are now in the process of bringing live additional EAPs and MCOs that we previously signed and look forward to updating you on our progress. Beyond SimplePractice Enterprise, we continue to invest in Revenue Cycle Management, or RCM, to address the challenges practitioners face when dealing with insurance. Accepting insurance can be complicated and time-consuming, particularly for solo practitioners and small group practices that lack the necessary resources or expertise. As a result, they often rely on third parties to understand the various policies, submit accurate claims, and deal with denied claims or payment delays, or they choose not to accept insurance at all. We believe SimplePractice has the potential to improve access to mental health care by transforming how solo practitioners and small group practices manage insurance. We are developing an innovative ecosystem that is designed to help practitioners accept insurance at scale and maximize reimbursement rates, so they can focus on what they love most, treating patients. With a pilot program underway, we are making great progress in gathering valuable insurance insights, understanding customer expectations, and determining the most effective ways to add value to our SimplePractice solution. We are excited about the initial feedback, and we'll keep you updated on our progress as we advance our solution with the goal of achieving strong product market fit. Now turning to our enterprise segment. Enterprise continued to perform well, driven by steady wins throughout the quarter and ongoing digital and paperless adoption of our solutions. The industries we cater to, utilities, financial services, government, healthcare, and giving, rely heavily on outdated software that lacks modern features and capabilities. However, whether it's shopping online or paying bills, consumers in today's digital age demand a convenient, user-friendly, and seamless experience. In these legacy industries, businesses often fall short in providing even basic functionalities such as mobile access, online payments, or automated reminders and notifications. At InvoiceCloud, we have addressed this challenge by creating tight integrations and adding new features on top of existing systems. Our approach enables our customers to deliver a modern experience without the need for expensive overhauls. Once implemented, we partner with our billers to drive digital adoption with them. That's why we win. We continued to see robust customer go lives in the first quarter of 2023. In insurance, for example, we went live with our largest customer to date. In utilities, we went live with several customers, including Chugach Electric in Alaska, Charter Township of Canton, Michigan, and Vigo County, Indiana. In addition, we achieved new records of digital and paperless adoption. Notably, we are seeing an acceleration of adoption with recent cohorts, a testament to evolving customer preferences and our ability to drive superior rates of digital adoption for our billers. Our first quarter was also a strong bookings quarter for InvoiceCloud, fueled by consistency in the mid-market. In utilities, we recently signed the Town of East Hampton, Connecticut, and the City of Quincy, Illinois. In insurance, we won LUBA Workers' Comp. In tax, we signed several new customers in North Carolina, where we benefit from tailwinds rooted in recent customer wins and strategic alliances. Forming new strategic alliances and strengthening existing relationships remain important growth drivers as they open new markets, add to our top of funnel, and accelerate sales and implementation cycles once they're onboarded. Additionally, our network often enables us to move upmarket more quickly. One of our key initiatives is to expand our network and further accelerate our strategic move upmarket through industry conferences. For example, in the first quarter, we participated in the invitation-only Oracle Energy and Water Customer Edge Conference in San Diego. InvoiceCloud was one of six companies that presented in the event's innovation showcase, a forum that enables forward-thinking technology companies to share solutions that shape the future of energy and water. In the past, we've also worked with Oracle Energy and Water customer service and billing technologies to provide real-time integrations, new digital engagement efficiencies, and increased customer satisfaction to utility customers like the City of Escondido, California. We are excited about potential opportunities to collaborate with Oracle in the future. InvoiceCloud has joined the Oracle Industry Lab as a technology collaborator. Another key success driver is innovation. We are always striving to be at the forefront of product development and thought leadership to meet and exceed our customers' expectations. Most recently, we joined the Utility 2030 Collaborative. The collaborative focuses on helping customer-facing and operations-focused departments improve their impact on customers and employees. We look forward to sharing critical insights on customer preferences and how our solution helps utilities keep revenue streams consistent while assisting payment-challenged customers. In summary, we've had a strong start to fiscal 2023, delivering yet another quarter of record revenue with expanded EBITDA margins. We continue to drive market adoption of solutions that help save costs, improve operational efficiencies and elevate customer satisfaction. Our suite of vertically tailored SaaS solutions delivered outstanding outcomes, fueled by persistent customer demand, platform adoption by payers and excellent customer retention rates. This demonstrates the strength of our business model and our position as leaders in customer engagement software with integrated payments. With that, I'll hand the call over to our CFO, Cassandra Hudson. Cassandra? Thank you, Bob. Our first quarter results again exceeded our expectations, showcasing the continued strength of our defensive verticals and our ability to deliver growth while expanding profitability. We've reported robust growth in revenue and delivered record-breaking adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin in the first quarter. As a result, we are making the following changes to our fiscal year 2023 guidance. For the full year, we continue to expect revenue to be in the range of $380 million-$384 million, or revenue growth of approximately 26%. We are raising our guidance for adjusted EBITDA for the full year, and we now expect to be in the range of $69 million-$71 million, which represents an adjusted EBITDA margin of roughly 18.3% or a 210 basis point improvement over fiscal year 2022. For Q2 of 2023, we expect revenue in the range of $92.5 million-$93.5 million, which implies 26% growth year-over-year at the midpoint of our range. We expect adjusted EBITDA in the range of $15 million-$15.5 million, which represents an adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.4% at the midpoint. We anticipate a sequential decrease in the adjusted EBITDA margin from Q1 to Q2 due to the timing and concentration of investments in Q2 of 2023. As you think about the next quarter and the remainder of 2023, please keep the following in mind. Regarding SMB, our SimplePractice solution remains in high demand within our core mental health vertical, driven by an increase in awareness and a growing demand for care. This trend has created opportunities for small practitioners to expand their practices and meet the needs of a growing patient population. As our customers grow, they typically purchase higher-priced packages, add SimplePractice seats, and process more payments through our solution. We believe group practices represent a significant opportunity for us, and we are seeing continued traction. We remain focused on enhancing our platform to further strengthen our value proposition and accelerate our move upmarket. In late Q1 of 2023, we increased the pricing of our integrated payment processing solution by 20 basis points. This increase helps to offset higher payment processing and infrastructure costs and allows us to continue to provide and invest in the seamless experience our customers expect. As it relates to Enterprise, we are seeing consistent demand for our solution and have built a robust pipeline that we believe will continue to fuel steady growth. We also remain highly focused on our sales and implementation execution, enabling us to move upmarket. We are excited about our top of funnel as this market segment is becoming a critical aspect of our growth strategy. In addition, we are seeing strong traction in our insurance and tax verticals. As Bob mentioned, we just went live with our largest insurance customer to date and are encouraged by our progress with several new tax customers in North Carolina, where we benefit from tailwinds rooted in recent customer wins and strategic alliances. Insurance and tax billers have traditionally relied heavily on slow, inefficient and error-prone billing systems and represent a large opportunity for us. As you know, our pricing is customized based on individual customer needs. In some cases, we charge a fixed fee per transaction and absorb costs. In other cases, we charge a percent of volume which increases revenue as the average ticket increases. In some cases, we charge a mix of both. We regularly assess and adjust our pricing structure for our customers to optimize revenue per transaction while absorbing higher costs. Finally, as I mentioned last quarter, we believe that our DonorDrive solution is more susceptible to macroeconomic disruption, and our guidance assumes a slowdown in revenue growth from fundraising events in the second half of this year. Now turning to our first quarter results. Total revenue for Q1 was $88.4 million, representing 31% year-over-year growth, fueled by an increase in customer count and transactions processed. As of the end of Q1, 2023, our total customer count was 108,200, representing an increase of 23% over the prior year. Our customer growth continues to be primarily driven by new customer adds from our digital marketing programs and word of mouth referrals in our SMB segment. We also delivered strong growth in transactions processed. In Q1, we processed 42.6 million transactions, up from 34.3 million in the year-ago quarter, representing 24% growth. Driven by strong secular tailwinds that have propelled demand for our SimplePractice solution in mental health, our SMB segment delivered revenue of $49.8 million, representing 36% growth year-over-year. Subscription revenue of $34.9 million grew 39% year-over-year, fueled by new customer adds and a partial uplift related to the pricing and packaging changes that we made in the first quarter of last year. Transaction and usage-based revenue of $14.6 million grew 32% year-over-year, driven by a higher number of transactions processed on our platform, as well as a higher transaction ARPU due to the 20 basis point price increase of our integrated payment processing solution. Our Enterprise segment continued to perform well with reported revenue of $38.6 million, representing 25% year-over-year growth, marked by consistent wins throughout the quarter and continued digital adoption of our solution. As expected, we saw a small step down in revenue on a sequential basis due to the timing of transactions in Q4 2022 associated with tax billing and InvoiceCloud and the concentration of large fundraising events for DonorDrive. Our adjusted gross margin for Q1 2023 increased slightly to 78.7% from 78.6% in Q1 2022. Sales and marketing expenses were $28.2 million, up $5.9 million as we continue to invest in digital marketing channels to create awareness for our SimplePractice solution and drive new customer acquisition. In Enterprise, our investments continue to be primarily focused on our strategic alliances as well as sales headcount to fuel pipeline and bookings growth. R&D expenses came in at $13.9 million, up $4 million. In our SMB segment, we're investing in additional features for group practices as well as the long-term opportunities we see with SimplePractice Enterprise and Revenue Cycle Management. In our Enterprise segment, we're investing in functionality to continuously enhance the experience for our billers and their payers and to accelerate digital adoption in all of our verticals. G&A costs were $11.3 million, up $200,000. We've seen significant efficiencies in G&A, driven by lower insurance premiums and leverage across many of our back-office functions. Net income was $4.1 million for the quarter, compared to $2.1 million in the first quarter of 2022. Sequentially, net income decreased by $800,000, primarily due to an increase in income tax expense associated with the Section 174 tax code changes. Adjusted EBITDA was $17.3 million for the quarter, representing 19.6% margin compared to $10.6 million, a 390 basis point improvement from the first quarter of 2022. The expanded EBITDA margin was primarily driven by efficiencies in G&A and to a lesser extent, sales and marketing, as well as the timing of investments planned in fiscal year 2023. Free cash flow was $6.4 million, increasing our cash balance to $318.3 million as of March 31st, 2023. We typically see lower adjusted EBITDA to free cash flow conversion in the first quarter as a result of our annual bonus payments. As a reminder, we expect adjusted EBITDA to free cash flow conversion to moderate to approximately 50% in 2023 due to higher cash taxes associated with the Section 174 tax code changes and the utilization of our remaining NOLs in 2022. In summary, we believe we operate in defensive verticals that should remain attractive and vibrant even in times of economic uncertainty. In SMB, there is significant and widespread unmet need for mental health treatment that continues to fuel growth. In our Enterprise segment, the majority of bills are non-discretionary in nature, and the trend towards digitization remains strong. Looking ahead, we continue to invest in our solutions to further enhance our ability to serve the unique needs of both our SMB and Enterprise customers. We are confident in our ability to drive profitable growth and create long-term value for our stakeholders as we execute our strategy and capitalize on the opportunities that lie ahead. I'll now turn the call back over to Bob for closing comments. Thank you, Cassandra. Wicked cool growth and profit expansion. We founded EngageSmart because activities like paying bills, scheduling appointments, onboarding new patients, and client communications shouldn't be that hard. Our success is driven by a combination of three simple factors. First, we have a proven playbook that is centered on our customers and led by top-tier talent. We prioritize recruiting, retaining, and developing our teammates, whose exceptional work and unwavering focus on customer satisfaction keep our momentum going. Second, we have a strong focus on product leadership, as evidenced by our high adoption and retention rates. Our deep expertise in vertical markets allows us to make decisions that prioritize our customers, resulting in innovative industry-leading solutions. Third, we operate in a large and growing market with significant potential for expansion. We have captured approximately 1% of market share of a $28 billion addressable U.S. market. We look forward to expanding our presence across all verticals and seizing new opportunities as they arise. We remain focused on delighting our customers, growing our business, and creating stakeholder value while we make a positive impact in the world. We appreciate you all joining us on this call this morning. Thank you very much. The floor is now open for your questions. If you would like to ask a question at this time, please press star one on your touchtone phone. You may remove yourself from the queue at any time by pressing star two. Once again, that is star and one to ask a question. Our first question comes from Bhavin Shah with Deutsche Bank. Good morning, everyone. It's Nick on for Bhavin this morning, and thanks for taking my questions. Digging in further on customer growth within SMB, can you give us some color on how mix has developed across the different pricing tiers within SimplePractice? How has the progression looked from clinicians graduating up from starter to essential and even on to pro tiers? Sure, good morning. You know, we've seen a very, I would say, stable mix really since we rolled out the new pricing and packaging in Q1 of 2022. You know, the majority of our customers are on the top two tiers today. You know, a small percentage overall on the starter plan, but we do see a ton of upgrade activity happening, right? You know, once they kinda get into the product, use it, then start to have a need for more features, we are seeing them graduate up To the next year. That activity is happening, and I would say in line with our expectations of what we were driving for with the pricing and packaging rollout. Great. Thank you. Then just as a follow-up, thinking about the updated guidance for the year, can you just give us any color on how expenses and investments are expected to trend in the second half and just anything else we should be aware of on linearity? You know, I mean, I think last quarter we certainly touched on just the progression that we see on revenue. That will certainly influence things in terms of profitability. You know, we do expect revenue to decelerate marginally throughout the year. I would say in terms of timing of investments, I think Q2 is really the big one. We have a number of consulting projects that are happening right now, and that will impact our EBITDA margin in the quarter. You know, I think the rest of the year should be a little bit smoother, but, you know, again, it really depends on the progress that we make on some of these projects. Some of the upside that we saw in Q1 in particular was just a shift of investment spending from Q1 to Q2. It is possible that that happens a little bit again in Q3, you know, right now we're really seeing that concentration happening in the second quarter here. Great. Thank you so much. No problem. Thank you. Thank you. Our next question comes from Jason Kupferberg with Bank of America. Hi, good morning, Bob Bennett and Cassandra Hudson. This is Tyler DuPont on for Jason Kupferberg. Nice job during the quarter. Just want to briefly touch on adjusted EBITDA margin. During the quarter, it seemed to beat almost everyone's expectations. Can you maybe just discuss a little bit more on where the majority of that surprise came from? I know you mentioned efficiencies in G&A, but any additional clarity there would be helpful. Sure. Yeah. I mean, it's certainly really strong profitability in the quarter. We are seeing a lot of efficiency in our G&A function, broadly speaking. You know, lower insurance costs was a factor. Really, you know, we went public in 2021, and we had made a lot of investments over 21 and 22 to really invest behind our back office function to support being a public company and also just a growing business, especially one that's growing as quickly as ours. I think those are starting to really drive some efficiency for us across the business. A little bit just, you know, timing related between Q1 and Q2. Also some efficiencies in sales and marketing in the quarter, as we continue to get more efficient there. I'd say, you know, a little bit more on the Enterprise side, in this quarter, which was, you know, I would say a pleasant surprise. Okay, great. Thanks. Thanks, Cassandra. Also just if you can provide an update on the additional health verticals within SMB in addition to mental health. I know you mentioned speech language pathology and OT seem to be gaining traction at a faster rate compared to potentially others. Just any clarity there. When we think about the SMB segment, if you could just remind us the breakout between mental health and the other health subverticals. Right. Hey, so it's Bob. The mental health continues to be 90% roughly of the overall SMB segment. Speech language pathology and occupational therapy continue to be very strong, you know, growth opportunities for us in our market expansion plans. The emphasis has shifted a bit towards, you know, supporting the really strong growth we're seeing in group practices. You know, we continue to see natural growth coming from new specialties as well. Okay, great. Thanks very much. You bet. Thank you. Our next question comes from Tien-Tsin Huang with JPMorgan. Hi. Thanks. Great. Good morning. Thanks for taking my question. I wanna ask on the consumer bill pay side, just an observation this earnings season, it seems like performance across the board has been pretty strong. What do you see on the ground in terms of, you know, consumer health and on the Enterprise side? How's demand shaping up versus 90 days ago? Sounds like it's steady, but just curious if there's any interesting observations there, you know, as the quarter played out as well as into April. Good morning, Tien-Tsin. Just to clarify your question, you're on the Enterprise side, right? Enterprise. Asking about just overall- Yep. Tien-Tsin Tien-Tsin -trends that we're seeing? Yeah. I mean, it's been very strong. Very strong. I mean, we continue to have a really robust pipeline, very strong bookings performance, and implementations in Q1 were strong as well. I think, you know, kind of looking green across the board, especially as it relates to Q1 performance. Bob, any additional color you'd add? No, I think that some of the adjustments we made in go-to-market, you know, a year ago, plus with, you know, aligning our partnerships with selling teams and so forth, is having a very strong yield in terms of building top of funnel. As we continue to scale, that just seems to be, you know, providing a very strong inventory, if you will, of new deals. Our sales engine is executing quite well and driving, you know, steady bookings. Okay. No, appreciate that. Just my second question or last question. Just on, you know, we're getting a lot of questions around generative AI. Bob, curious to hear your thoughts on generative AI and ChatGPT and what the impact might be on both businesses. I'm thinking especially SMB, you know, what are you thinking in terms of product roadmap and how it might fit their productivity demand or any comments would be great. Thanks. Sure. It's a great question, and of course, you know, I think that we're gonna see, you know, AI bounce across everybody, right now, and it already has. We've actually done a really efficient job of building self-service into our SMB segment so that the vast majority of tickets, if you will, or support questions that come in from our customer base are handled already through AI techniques, not through people having to deal with it because they have, you know, generally the same questions over and over again. I think that there's lots more that can be done there, as we even shift some of that towards Enterprise. Yeah, I think we're gonna see a whole new age of driving self-service, which we think really fits well with our natural direction of simplifying customer and client engagement. Yeah, agreed. Thank you. Makes sense. Thank you. Thank you. Our next question comes from Terry Tillman with Truist Securities. Hey, Bob, Cassandra, and Josh. Seemed like a wicked cool quarter, Bob. Oh, bada bing. Bada bing, Terry. Bada bing. Well played there. Yeah, thanks for taking my questions. First question, Bob, just relates to group practice, and it sounds like small group practice versus very large group practice. What I'm curious about is, you know, when you brought on SimplePractice, that was like a $4 million business, I believe, or thereabout, and now it's exploded, and it's very, very large and a lot of scale. How does small group practice compare to, you know, the early kind of roots of the mental health-oriented SimplePractice business from just a revenue standpoint? You know, what is typically like a number of clinicians for these small group practices? Is there anything you have to do differently on, like, go-to-market or, like, how you skew up products for that? Unfortunately, that was a three-part question, and I can repeat every part of it if you want. The group practices, as they get larger, and we continue to see them get larger within our base, somewhat organically as they, you know, collect new VO, they fill up their schedules, they add another clinician that they used to work with at the big clinic or something. Definitely have more items and more needs, if you will, for reporting and hierarchical, you know, permissions-based, you know, rooms that they've got to figure out who's going to what room and all that. There's definitely more complexity to it. We've seen a natural migration towards groups from the customer base, and we continue to expect to continue to see that as we move forward. I think that it is. Yeah, it was originally built more for a solo practitioner, and over time, we've adjusted the solution to accommodate more and more of the needs. You know, I think we've worked very closely with clients to see that migration and support their needs as they continue to expand. They don't wanna leave SimplePractice. We don't want them to leave SimplePractice. We've been, you know, very successful in just gearing the product to accommodate the growing needs of group practices. We've seen a steady increase of number of clinicians per group over time. I would just add, Terry, you know, certainly for group practices in the two-to-10 range, you know, that's where we see a lot of strong traction today. But, you know, we do have a lot of group practices above 20 and, you know, 50 and even a couple above 100. You know, I think that's a testament to the demand that we see for group practices and is a big reason behind why we're investing in more features specifically for groups. A couple of those features include things like waitlist management, payroll simplification, things like roles and permissions, and then, you know, some UI to allow group practices to manage productivity across their clinician base. That's really helpful. I appreciate both your all's responses on that. Cassandra, one thing is, I mean, one way to look at this guidance is you maintained it, but I think you did say DonorDrive, maybe second half, maybe some macro-driven challenges. Looking at it another way, it feels like maybe, you know, the InvoiceCloud and the SimplePractice business are actually ahead of expectations if you're maintaining. Could you flesh out a little bit more how you feel about kind of the full year on, you know, kind of the Enterprise and SMB businesses kind of adjusting for DonorDrive? Thank you. Sure. You know, I think broadly speaking, we were very encouraged by the performance and the outperformance really that we saw in Q1 relative to our expectations. I think it speaks to the continued strength that we see in demand for all of our solutions, you know, primarily SimplePractice and InvoiceCloud, of course, just given the concentration that they make up of our business. You know, I don't think our view has changed really on DonorDrive, just given, you know, the macro susceptibility there of that solution in particular. We just wanted to highlight the fact that there is a concentration of revenue from fundraising events in the back half of the year, and that would be where we would see the impact. That's certainly factored in. You know, we continue to feel really confident about our ability to achieve our full year revenue guidance. It's still early in the year, and just kind of given all of those factors, you know, we're sticking with the range for now. You know, again, still feel really good and very confident in our ability to get there. Sounds good. Thank you. Thank you. Our next question comes from John Davis with Raymond James. Hey, good morning, guys. Cassandra, the SMB customer count came in, you know, I think about 100 basis points or about 1,000 better than we expected, given, especially in light of the price increases. Any comments there? Have you seen any attrition? You think any attrition that you were gonna see, you've seen from the SMB price increases that went in in March? I mean, I guess to agree with you, JD, you know, we certainly did have a good quarter in terms of customer adds at SimplePractice. You know, on the growth customer add side, you know, we were very pleased with how that turned out for the quarter. You know, I think on the churn side was largely as expected. You know, the pricing and packaging change, I think is small. You know, as we alluded to last quarter, we expect the disruption to be, at least on the churn side, more minimal, and that aligns with what we've been seeing so far. I think there's still, you know, potential for that, just given we changed the pricing pretty late in the quarter, and it's still new. There's still some potential for that to impact Q2, but, you know, largely, a smaller event for us, broadly speaking. Okay, thanks. I think SMB ARPU was up about 10% year-over-year. Maybe help us think about the puts and takes on that for the rest of the year. Obviously, you're lapping the pricing and packaging, you have the SMB price increase, so I assume it's gonna moderate a little bit 'cause I think the price increase was smaller this year versus last year. Any comments there would be helpful. Yeah, I think, you know, certainly, you know, I think a lot of the increase that we saw in ARPU obviously is related to the pricing change on the payment side. You know, we still see steady increase on the subscription ARPU side, and I would expect that trend to continue. You know, I think one thing to just keep in mind is there's a little bit of seasonality in terms of appointments that happen in our business, and Q1 is typically the strongest, and we start to see that step down throughout the rest of the year. That will impact the ARPU as well. You know, I think we'll see certainly, you know, more moderate ARPU as we work through the balance of this year as a result of those factors. Okay. Great. Thanks. One more quick one for Bob. You're stacking cash here. Any comments on M&A environment? Have valuations started to rationalize at all? Pipeline, any color there would be helpful. Yeah, we continue to be active, Terry. I mean, JD, we definitely, I think we're more active than we were. No, valuations haven't rationalized completely yet at all. We continue to see opportunities. Okay. Thanks, guys. Yes. Thank you. Our next question comes from Scott Berg with Needham. Hi, everyone. Congrats on the good quarter. Thanks for taking my questions. I guess I have two. First of all, Bob, you talked fairly extensively about some of the pushes you're making into some of these events and conferences and partner ecosystems, you know, for InvoiceCloud. InvoiceCloud has always had a fairly partner-driven, you know, go-to-market motion anyways. I guess, what does this incremental push maybe do for the business outside of obviously just having more, you know, more outlets to sell the product? Yeah, Scott. Yeah. It also provides us an opportunity to become tighter with the customer information system and therefore create a fundamentally stronger integration. Use a simple example. Let's say it's a real-time integration versus a batch integration, so that if, you know, if you're a utility and somebody, you know, is delinquent, you might be sending a truck out to shut the water off. If a payment comes in that morning, you don't wanna send the truck. If you're in batch, you might not see that. If you're in batch mode, if you just uploaded the bill, the payment files overnight, you might send a truck to somebody that just paid that morning. Real-time integrations are stronger. That's sort of a simple example of it, but there are lots of ways that we can create tighter integrations and better support systems and ecosystems around the customer to support their needs better by having strong alliances. This isn't just top of funnel. It's actually an improved value proposition versus our competitors. Got it. Helpful. From a follow-up perspective, Cassandra, you talked about the pricing increase on the processing, the payment processing. I know it's very modest, very nominal, but did that have any impact in churn on the quarter? Didn't know if customers might see that negatively versus the, you know, reality on how small it is. Thank you. I mean, again, you know, we're expecting it to be a very small event in terms of churn impact. You know, we really didn't see too much disruption there in Q1. You know, just as I mentioned earlier, we did roll that out later in the quarter. You know, we may still see some impact here just given how new it is. Again, I think it will be, you know, pretty nominal of an impact for us. Thanks. That's all I have. Congrats on the good quarter. Thank you. Thank you. Our next question comes from Josh Beck with KeyBank. Hey guys, this is Maddie on for Josh. Congrats on the quarter. Love seeing EBITDA way above expectations. My first question for you guys is: how are you thinking about the digital payments penetration within the Enterprise segment today? Where do you see that number going, and how do you think that affects the average take rate going forward? Our average customer, Maddie, is probably about 45% of the bills that get issued, get paid through us for our average customer. We have customers that are over 80%, you know, on a natural basis. In other words, they're not It's not a penalty to pay with a paper check, but they still, because of our simplicity and an adoption-driving motion, we tend to drive very high adoption of both paperless and online payments. We've got several customers over 80%. We're at an average of 45%, there's plenty of opportunity for us to see this go to 80% for, we think, virtually all of our customers. That's just within the base. I think that that's a trend. You know, 10 years from now it'll be certainly higher than that. You know, today we see is 80% is really the, you know, sort of near-term goal to try to drive adoption for our existing customer base. Got it. That's super helpful. Just wanted to touch base on the progress of Monarch. How many EAPs would you say that you guys are in talks with today? What's the approximate size of business that you guys are targeting there? You know, we have several that we are in talks with. We've contracted with a couple. We've actually gone live or this week with our largest MCO, Managed Care Organization. Not naming names at this point, you know, that's to come. You know, we're extremely excited about the progress we're making there for, you know, the, you know, access to care for mental health professionals by providing this really simple methodology and marketplace, if you will, through meetmonarch.com for our EAPs and MCOs to be able to provide, you know, mental health assistance and direct appointments through our calendaring functions for those patients that are in need for the employee bases that they support. You know, several and growing very fast. Just one quick follow-up on that. Do the clinicians need to opt into Monarch, or are all of the clinicians just automatically a part of Monarch? That's a good question, Maddie. What we see is that they need to create their full bio, for us, out of our, you know, within our system, which we provide, you know, simple tools for. We've got thousands of our existing customers that have already done that. We have lots of access to a lot of clinicians available for these MCOs in EAPs today. Yes, they do have to enroll in it. Doesn't cost anything to enroll in it, but they have to just update their bio website, make sure that the calendar's online for our MCOs and, you know, the care coordinators to be able to create the appointments online. Perfect. Appreciate the color. Thanks, guys. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you. Our next question comes from Bob Napoli with William Blair. Hi, this is Spencer James on for Bob. Thanks for taking the question. I want to go back real quick to the sequential increase in expenses and the outlook for adjusted EBITDA. Could you maybe just summarize the amount of incremental expenses going towards nearer term go-to-market opportunities versus longer-term product enhancements for the SimplePractice business? Maybe put differently, just between Enterprise and the SMB segment. You know, I would say at least as it relates to Q2, you know, more of the investment is a little bit more weighted to the SMB side. You know, go-to-market investments, and a little bit also in the engineering side, and also just in terms of hiring, right? There's lots of investments that we're making in our business, and, you know, I think Q1 we weren't able to get all of those investments executed on in the same timeframe that we had originally planned. That's certainly influencing the Q2 adjusted EBITDA results a bit. Okay. Thank you for the color there. I wanted to ask about the digital ad market and how that might be impacting new adds in the SMB segment. How should we think about trends in the digital ad market and what that might mean for the outlook in new adds the rest of the year? I mean, you know, certainly, you know, obviously prices and the cost of digital advertising, you know, have been increasing over time, I would say. Despite that, we've seen continued strength in top of funnel, and very, very stable, growth customer adds for, you know, gosh, eight, nine, approaching 10 quarters now. We're really pleased with those results. You know, for us, I think it speaks really to the broader demand environment. As you can see, still very, very efficient from an LTV- to- CAC perspective as well. You know, today, for now, that's the trends that we see in our business and expect them to continue. Thank you for the question. Thank you. There are no additional questions registered at this time. I will now pass the floor back over to Bob Bennett for any additional or closing remarks. Thank you. EngageSmart had a successful first quarter with strong execution. Both of our segments contributed to achieving record revenue and adjusted EBITDA results, reflecting the momentum and durability of our business. Our achievements were driven by several key factors, including robust customer growth, an increase in average revenue per customer, effective pricing and packaging changes, and exceptional customer retention. We remain bullish and well positioned to take advantage of the immense market opportunity in the U.S., and our compelling value proposition continues to resonate with customers. We look forward to speaking with you again later this quarter at J.P. Morgan's 51st Annual Global Technology, Media and Communications Conference in Boston, and William Blair's 43rd Annual Stock Growth Conference in Chicago. Thank you very much. Thank you. This concludes today's EngageSmart first quarter 2023 earnings call. You may disconnect at this time, and have a wonderful day.
