Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for standing by, and welcome to Teradata's fourth quarter and full year 2020 earnings conference call. At this time, all participants are in a listen-only mode. After the speaker's presentation, will be a question-and-answer session. To ask a question during the session, you will need to press star one on your telephone. Please be advised that today's conference is being recorded. If you require any further assistance, please press star zero. I would now like to hand the conference over to your speaker today, Christopher Lee, Senior Vice President, Investor Relations and Corporate Development. Thank you. Please go ahead. Good afternoon, welcome to Teradata's 2020 fourth quarter and full year 2020 earnings call. Steve McMillan, Teradata's President and Chief Executive Officer, will lead our call today, followed by Mark Culhane, Teradata's Chief Financial Officer, who will discuss our financial results. Our discussion today includes forecasts and other information that are considered forward-looking statements. While these statements reflect our current outlook, they are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially. These risk factors are described in today's earnings release, Teradata's most recent Form 10-K and Form 10-Q filed with the SEC, and in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31st, 2020, that is expected to be filed with the SEC later in February. We undertake no duty or obligation to update our forward-looking statements. On today's call, we will be discussing certain non-GAAP financial measures which exclude such items as stock-based compensation expense and other special items described in our earnings release. We will also discuss other non-GAAP items such as free cash flow and constant currency revenue comparisons. A reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP measures is included in our earnings release, which is accessible on the investor relations page of our website at investor.teradata.com. A replay of this conference call will be available later today on our website. Now, I will turn the call over to Steve. Good afternoon, everyone, and thanks for joining us today. I'm very pleased to lead off our call by sharing that Teradata delivered another solid quarter in Q4, culminating in a strong finish to 2020. We exceeded expectations in the fourth quarter on recurring revenue, EPS, and free cash flow, and we also exceeded expectations for the full year on ARR growth, EPS, and free cash flow. I'm incredibly proud of our team's performance and strong execution, particularly given the impacts of the global pandemic. We have effectively completed our transition to a subscription model that generates recurring revenue and are vigorously executing our transformation to a cloud-first company. The team drove another quarter of solid year-over-year and sequential growth in total ARR. This was especially true for public cloud ARR, which exceeded $100 million. The growth we are seeing demonstrates that our cloud-first positioning is resonating with the market. More importantly, it shows that customers are increasingly seeing the value of Vantage in the public cloud, powering effective analytics at scale and delivering meaningful business returns. Public cloud ARR of $106 million at the end of 2020 was a 165% increase from the prior year. Cloud- first is overarchingly important to our strategic focus. As such, we are now disclosing our public cloud ARR in our earnings release and intend to continue providing this metric going forward. To provide some color on our momentum, I'd like to highlight a handful of our public cloud wins. One of the world's largest airlines committed to Teradata on Azure for its next-generation analytics in the cloud. We were chosen ahead of Snowflake because of our low-cost price performance and our best-fit technology, allowing this customer to meet its advanced analytics goals. This win is a great demonstration of the essential role Teradata serves for our customers. Leveraging all relevant data to help our customers navigate through tumultuous times is crucial. No one does that better than we do. We signed a long-term agreement at a Fortune 100 insurer as it modernizes its IT infrastructure. This competitive win against several cloud-native vendors came after the customer recognized that Teradata provides significantly higher value and quality at significantly lower cost than others. One of the largest non-profit healthcare systems in the U.S. chose Vantage on Azure for its patient experience and the data analytics capabilities enabled by our data platform. It conducted an extensive evaluation of Vantage on Azure versus cloud-only competitors. Our customer selected Teradata for our unsurpassed workload management capabilities, platform ability, and an ability to reliably and securely execute the company's more than 26 million queries per day. Teradata is partnering with Capgemini, one of our global consulting partners, on this customer's migration to the cloud and its future growth opportunities. A North American-based global e-commerce marketplace re-committed to Teradata to modernize its analytics environment after it tested a cloud-native offering. Experiencing technical challenges and extended migration delays brought the customer to the realization that it would not achieve the business value it expected from its intended move to Snowflake. Selecting Vantage on AWS offered a seamless transition to the cloud, ensures its mission-critical production workload is maintained, and allows its people to focus on creating go-forward business value. A Fortune 50 healthcare company selected Teradata on AWS to continue to run its business intelligence reporting and analytics for claims, case management, and provider efficiency. This, too, was a competitive win against multiple cloud-native vendors, with Teradata's ability to scale and handle very high workload volumes as the main differentiators for this growing customer. We are helping a leading retailer in APJ transition to the cloud with Vantage on Azure. This customer chose our consumption pricing model to provide the elasticity to quickly scale and address the changing retail market environment. These are just a few examples that illustrate how well our teams kept their focus and executed to drive success in a year of global upheaval caused by the pandemic. Beyond the excellent efforts of our sales organization, who is proving every day the reliability, performance, and value of our offerings and capabilities to customers, the company's resolute cloud-first focus and commitment came to the forefront throughout 2020 and was manifested across the entire business. Some of our advances from the last few months include launching our Vantage trial program. This trial program places the power of Teradata directly in the hands of customers to help companies quickly, easily, and at no cost experience the capabilities of Vantage in the cloud. This free trial is preloaded with ready-to-use examples to get customers started. Users can also upload their own data to see how Vantage Advanced analytic functions enable faster evaluation and accelerated time to value. As with every Teradata environment, there is no limit to the number or complexity of queries that may be submitted. Only Vantage enables analytics across multi-cloud, on-prem, and hybrid environments. To offer maximum flexibility and choice for our customers, Vantage is available across the top public cloud vendors, Google Cloud, AWS, and Microsoft Azure. We also recently announced that Teradata Vantage is now available in AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud marketplaces. These new purchasing channels offer another means to make it easy for customers to purchase and use Vantage. With full multi-cloud support, our software is consistent across all of these environments, making processes easier, reducing risk, and delivering faster time to value, and all with the scale, security, availability, and performance customers rely on from Teradata. This is a tremendous benefit to our customers, as many have multi-cloud strategies and roadmaps. With Vantage, companies can leverage all of the data all of the time and at the scale they need to achieve breakthrough business results from their analytics. Our support of multi-cloud environments, combined with our new flexible pricing options, make it easy for customers to benefit from data analytics in the cloud as they unlock the value in their data assets. Additionally, with the latest release of Teradata QueryGrid, we are making it easier for customers to connect to data sources regardless of where the data resides, in the cloud, in multiple clouds, or on-prem. This is important as organizations increasingly transition to the cloud and need to be able to access and combine information from all of the data environments at the same time and at scale. Our R&D team is relentlessly working to ensure that Vantage is the fastest, lowest risk, highest performing, and most cost-effective path to the cloud. This focused organization has delivered more cloud capabilities in 2020 than ever before. It's a driving force behind our cloud growth and will continue to accelerate as we architect our software for the cloud. I am confident in our accelerating cloud roadmap, our rapid cloud migration work, and the growth it will deliver. Our development efforts remain centered on driving complete and compelling cloud offerings at scale. The team is bringing forth cloud-native integrations at record pace. Companies must take advantage of all of the data that is available to them to succeed. We will remain steadfast in providing the enterprise scale and flexibility they need with our cloud data warehouse and the analytic capabilities we enable as a platform. As I referenced last quarter, we undertook a careful review of our operations to align our costs to better support our cloud growth objectives. We will be investing 75% of all R&D spend, or over $200 million in fiscal 2021, in our cloud initiatives. We are making these investments while also planning to improve operating margins and increase free cash flow. Looking ahead, as we begin 2021, we anticipate significant year-over-year growth in public cloud ARR. Additionally, we expect year-over-year growth in total revenue, profitability, and free cash flow. Going forward, a majority of our revenue will be recurring, and we expect total revenue growth for the first time since 2018, as the shift to a subscription model is no longer a headwind for our reported results. Mark will talk more about this in his comments, along with financial reporting changes we anticipate making in 2021 as a result of the way I am looking at and operating the business. We are a cloud software platform company, and our future lies in bringing enterprise data warehousing and analytic software to the world's leading organizations. Consulting services and third-party software sales don't equate to high-quality recurring product revenue. Therefore, we believe the changes Mark will describe will aid you in seeing our true progress. We have taken clear actions to prepare for growth in 2021. One of the ways we strengthened our execution during 2020 was focusing on driving awareness and demand for our cloud offerings. We have made meaningful headway and are stepping up our efforts to further focus our marketing and sales teams on driving growth in the cloud. Importantly, we have refined our sales compensation program and are incenting our salespeople to grow cloud while protecting our base. We have also simplified and aligned our marketing message to cloud-first and are taking the message to the market to drive awareness and demand for Teradata Vantage on public cloud within our target markets and customers. Additionally, we received a significant industry endorsement of Teradata's emerging strength as a leading cloud-first data platform, as Teradata was named a leader in Gartner's Cloud Database Management Magic Quadrant. The report noted that our move to the cloud and new pricing models make our price performance more apparent, and furthermore, the report encourages customers to run a proof of concept to understand how competitive Teradata's price performance is. Teradata garnered the highest scores in three out of four use cases in Gartner's report on Critical Capabilities for Cloud Database Management Systems for Analytical Use Cases. This evaluation clearly demonstrates Teradata's ability to meet the largest and most demanding customers' data analytics needs from all industries. We are continuing to add strong leadership to our executive ranks. I am very pleased that we named Todd Cione as Chief Revenue Officer. Todd brings to Teradata more than 25 years of experience in global sales, marketing, channel, and operations at large multinational technology organizations, including most recently at Apple and previously with Oracle, Rackspace, and Microsoft. He drives for results, has a track record of delivering predictable and profitable growth, and has successfully led organizations through cloud-based transformations. With an intense focus on delivering lasting value for customers, Todd has already hit the ground running and is deeply engaged with our go-to-market teams. Before I turn the call over to Mark, I would like to highlight the recognition Teradata recently received regarding our ongoing Environmental, Social, and Governance, or ESG, efforts. I am pleased to share that Teradata was named in the Dow Jones Sustainability North America Index for the 11th consecutive year, and we have also been included in the Corporate Equality Index for the first time. We believe social responsibility, sustainable business practices, and responsible governance are good for our world and right for our business. We will continue to build on our commitment to sustainable corporate citizenship that leads to long-term value creation for all of Teradata's stakeholders. We look forward to share more on our corporate strategy, including ESG, at an Analyst Day later this year. In closing, I would like to reinforce that I am incredibly proud of the progress we've made and our execution against our goals. With the ever-increasing volume of data and the dynamically changing business environment, companies need Teradata's multi-cloud technology, which lets them scale simultaneously across all critical dimensions. Whether that be data volume, the number or complexity of queries, response times, or managing SLAs of different business needs. This is where Teradata technology excels, and our rapidly growing cloud ARR shows that customers are recognizing this value from Teradata. With that, I will turn the call to Mark for more details on our results. Thank you, Steve, and good afternoon, everyone. Before I discuss our Q4 operating results, I want to indicate that unless stated otherwise, my comments today reflect Teradata's results on a non-GAAP basis, which excludes items such as stock-based compensation expense and other special items identified in our earnings release. Additional commentary on key metrics and segment trends can be found in the earnings discussion document on our investor relations webpage at investor.teradata.com. I share Steve's view that Teradata had a strong finish to 2020 in a global environment impacted by the pandemic. I am pleased to report that the company delivered another quarter with better-than-expected recurring revenue, earnings per share, and free cash flow, while effectively completing our pivot from a perpetual license model to a subscription license model. We also exceeded our original guidance for the full year for ARR growth, earnings per share, and free cash flow, despite the impact of COVID-19. We ended the year with $1.587 billion in ARR, which was 11% growth year-over-year and beat guidance of 8% ARR growth given at the beginning of the year. We delivered $86 million in incremental ARR in the fourth quarter. The $1.587 billion of ARR breaks down as follows. $960 million represents subscription and cloud ARR. As Steve noted in his introductory remarks, to give investors better insight into our cloud business and momentum, we are disclosing our public cloud ARR for the first time. Public cloud ARR totaled $106 million at the end of 2020, which was a 165% increase from the end of 2019. Public cloud-related ARR is comprised of Teradata Vantage running on the public cloud, AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, and does not include private cloud, which continues to be included in subscription ARR. We are not including private cloud as our cloud-first strategic focus is on public cloud. The remaining subscription amount of $854 million represents on-premises and private cloud subscriptions and grew 30% year-over-year. The remaining ARR balance of $627 million represents maintenance, software upgrade rights, and other ARR, down 14% year-over-year, and reflects our strategic move to subscription and the cloud. Moving to recurring revenue. In Q4, we generated $383 million in recurring revenue, which was above our guidance range of $371 million-$373 million and represented 9% growth year-over-year. Better-than-expected ARR growth and consistent sales execution throughout the quarter both positively contributed to the increase in recurring revenue. Moving on to consulting revenue. Consulting revenue declined 27% year-over-year, as expected, as we continue to refocus our consulting business on higher-margin engagements that also drive increased software consumption within our customer base. In addition, we experienced impact from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, as some customers canceled or delayed certain projects as they continue to manage their discretionary spending, especially for on-site consulting engagements. We expect consulting revenues to start to stabilize during 2021 and expect consulting revenues to decline at a significantly lower rate than we have experienced over the last few years. Turning to gross margins. Total gross margin came in at 59.3%, up 610 basis points year-over-year. The improvement was driven by the continued favorable revenue mix shift to higher-margin recurring revenues and away from lower-margin perpetual and consulting revenues, as well as increased recurring revenue and perpetual revenue gross margins year-over-year. Cost savings of about $6 million from the actions announced during our Q3 2020 earnings call aided our gross margin in the fourth quarter and will also benefit our gross margin dollars in 2021. Recurring revenue gross margins was 70.5%, up 190 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2019, and up 10 basis points sequentially. The year-over-year increase in recurring revenue gross margins was due to cost improvements, primarily in our subscription and cloud business. As you may recall, we had expected recurring revenue gross margins to decline sequentially in Q4 from Q3. However, the greater than expected recurring revenue dollars and our cost-saving actions both drove the better- than- expected recurring revenue gross margin. Consulting gross margin was 8.4% versus 14.9% in the fourth quarter of 2019. Consulting margins declined year-over-year and sequentially as revenue decreases outpaced cost reductions. As part of our restructuring actions, we have moved to a more variable consulting cost structure starting in 2021 to improve the future profitability of our consulting business and enable more consulting with third-party partners. Turning to operating expenses. Total operating expenses were up 4% year-over-year. The primary driver of this increase were additional incentive plan expenses given our strong Q4 performance. Excluding incentive plan expenses, total operating expenses decreased slightly year-over-year. On our Q3 earnings call, we disclosed that the restructuring efforts we announced were expected to result in expense reductions between $80 million-$90 million on an annualized basis. We expected to invest a portion of these savings into our cloud-first and related go-to-market initiatives and return the remainder to investors through increased earnings. As an update, the actions taken resulted in approximately $80 million of total cost savings. Of this amount, approximately $12 million benefited operating income in the fourth quarter. We will discuss the impact on 2021 when I get to guidance shortly. Turning to earnings per share. Earnings per share of $0.38 exceeded our guidance range of $0.23-$0.25 provided last quarter. We cleanly beat expectations as we generated about $0.09 from better- than- expected revenue growth and about $0.08 of EPS from the cost actions discussed on the Q3 earnings call, partially offset by the primarily lower consulting margins and higher incentive planning expenses, as previously mentioned. Turning to free cash flow. We had another solid quarter of free cash flow generation driven by higher operating margin, strong cash collections, and other favorable working capital timing differences. Free cash flow in the fourth quarter was $45 million, which contributed to full-year free cash flow of $216 million, well ahead of the annual free cash flow guidance of $150 million we provided at the beginning of the year. As a reminder, we expected to make cash payments of approximately $75 million related to the restructuring actions that we discussed during our Q3 earnings call, of which approximately $50 million were expected in the fourth quarter. Our current forecast for total cash usage is now approximately $65 million, down $10 million from the prior estimate. Of the $65 million, $23 million was paid in the fourth quarter. The remaining $42 million is expected to be paid during 2021. However, even after taking the restructuring cash payments into account, our Q4 free cash flow was still better than we expected. Turning to guidance. Let's start by discussing the two key assumptions underpinning our 2021 outlook. First, I would like to inform you of a financial reporting change starting in Q1 2021 that Steve mentioned in his introductory remarks. To better align our financial reporting with how Steve is managing the business going forward, we will be reclassifying managed services-related ARR and revenue out of recurring revenue and into non-recurring consulting revenue, as these services are principally consulting-delivered services. In addition, we will be reclassifying third-party software-related ARR and revenue out of recurring revenue and into other non-recurring revenue, as selling and renewing third-party software will not be a focus for us, but rather will be driven directly to the third-party software partner. The reporting change will result in no change to previously reported total revenue or total gross profit or gross margin percentage. We are making this change to better reflect and disclose the important revenue and margin metrics that Steve and our company are focused on driving moving forward. See the earnings discussion document on the investor relations webpage for more information regarding the revenue and gross margin component impacts of this change. I would like to provide you the reclassified amounts of ARR at December 31, 2020 by category reflecting these changes. After reclassifying managed services and third-party software ARR, total ARR was $1.425 billion at the end of 2020, which still grew over 11% year-over-year. It consisted of the following: $917 million of subscription and cloud-related ARR, which increased 38% from the end of the prior year, with public cloud ARR of $106 million of this total. $508 million of maintenance and software upgrade rights related ARR, which decreased 17%, as expected, due to our shift to a subscription model. Second, we look to continue our growth in the cloud as we accelerate our product roadmap, focus our go-to-market to grow cloud while protecting our base, and drive awareness and demand for our platform amidst the ongoing pandemic. Given our cloud momentum and the purchasing behavior of our high-end enterprise customer base, as more of them move to Vantage in the cloud, we expect that we will contract differently with our customer base versus what we have historically done on-premises. We anticipate that some or many of our customers may choose to purchase or use committed volumes of cloud instances directly from the public cloud providers rather than through us. This could create variability in our total ARR and recurring revenue in subsequent quarters, as only the ARR and recurring revenue associated with our Vantage software will flow through our P&L rather than that plus the cloud infrastructure. However, we are happy to take that trade-off, as that recurring revenue has a higher gross margin for Teradata, and it is easier for our customers to elastically consume Teradata in the public clouds versus on-premises. Additionally, as more customers and workloads move to the cloud, it is likely more of our business will be consumption-based and will not necessarily be recognized ratably, creating more variability in the recurring revenue we report by quarter. Furthermore, many of our customers will operate Vantage on-premises as well as in the cloud, and thus, we expect that may change our on-premises contracts with customers, which could result in on-premises revenue recognized other than ratably, which also may create more variability in the recurring revenue we report by quarter. As a result, we anticipate it becoming more difficult to forecast our recurring revenue, especially on a quarterly basis. Therefore, we will not be providing guidance for recurring revenue by quarter. With that said, our 2021 annual guidance, which considers the reclassifications I recently mentioned, is as follows. Public cloud ARR is expected to grow at least 100% year-over-year. Total ARR is anticipated to grow in the mid to high single-digit percentage range year-over-year. We expect total recurring revenue to grow in the mid to high single-digit percentage range year-over-year. We expect total revenue growth for the first time since 2018. We anticipate total revenue to grow in the low single-digit percentage range year-over-year. Non-GAAP earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $1.50-$1.58, which would be about 18% year-over-year growth at the midpoint. We expect free cash flow of at least $250 million. Now I'd like to provide some color on 2021 to help you understand our business, which again considers the reclassification I recently mentioned. We expect public cloud ARR to become a more meaningful part of total ARR. Within the total revenue guidance we provided, we anticipate mid single- digit percentage reduction in consulting revenue year-over-year and a continued reduction of perpetual and other revenue by at least half in 2021 versus 2020. We expect our total gross margin rate in 2021 to be approximately the same as in 2020, given our significant movement to the cloud. We also expect recurring revenue gross margins to be in the low 70% range. Perpetual and other gross margin is expected to be in the mid 20% range, and consulting gross margin to be in the low teens percentage range. We expect to improve operating margins by 100 basis points- 150 basis points as we continue to drive efficiencies in our operating model to drive profitable growth while increasing our investment in cloud sales and R&D capabilities. As previously discussed, the majority of the $80 million of expected annual run rate cost savings are being reinvested back into R&D and go-to-market cloud initiatives. However, on a net basis, we anticipate $0.05- $0.10 of benefit to 2021 EPS. This is on top of the benefit recognized in EPS for the fourth quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP earnings per share includes the cost savings I just mentioned. The free cash flow guide I mentioned reflects and is reduced by the $42 million of restructuring cash payments previously discussed. We anticipate approximately $27 million of the $42 million being paid during the first quarter. We expect our non-GAAP effective tax rate to be approximately 23% for the full year and assume 112 million fully diluted shares outstanding. We plan to be opportunistic about share buybacks during 2021. While we are focused on executing against our full-year guidance, we wanted to provide you with a few markers to assist you with your modeling of Q1 2021, which again considers the reclassifications I previously mentioned. Public cloud ARR is expected to grow 165% or more from the $44 million in Q1 2020 public cloud ARR, or about $10 million-$15 million increase sequentially from the end of 2020. Total revenue in the first quarter is expected to be higher year-over-year, but lower sequentially, which is consistent with the historical seasonal pattern. However, we anticipate the decline rate for total revenue from Q4 2020 to Q1 2021 to be less than it was from prior years. While we expect consulting revenues to stabilize during the course of 2021, we expect approximately a 15% decline year-over-year. We expect non-GAAP EPS in the range of $0.38-$0.40 with 112 million fully diluted shares outstanding. With that, operator, we are ready to take questions. As a reminder, to ask a question, you will need to press star one on your telephone. To withdraw your question, press the pound or hash key. Please stand by while we compile the Q&A roster. Your first question comes from Wamsi Mohan from Bank of America. Hi. Yes, thank you, and thanks for breaking out the public cloud ARR, and congrats on crossing the $100 million mark here. Can you talk about your public cloud ARR guidance of at least 100% growth for the year? You're clearly now available across a much broader set of platforms. Just wondering, in that at least 100%, what's your assumption around the mix of revenue that's going to be just software bought through the public cloud marketplaces versus the revenue where customers are paying for infrastructure from you as well? Yeah. Hey, Wamsi. Thanks. Yeah. Clearly we're seeing lots of momentum in our public cloud interest, Vantage on the cloud. Time will tell how much comes as just software only versus are they going to procure the infrastructure through us. Clearly, we don't think our biggest customers are likely to do that, given what we know today. That's why we're saying at least 100%. We would hope that we'd be higher than that, and we'll have to see how the year plays out, as that moves, to determine whether is it all coming to us or just the software portion only. Okay, thanks. Hey, Wamsi. Yeah. Hey, Wamsi. It's Steve. Thanks for the question. I'd also say on the customers buying the infrastructure through us, we see that as a key differentiator. Being able to operate Teradata Vantage inside the customer's environment is something that differentiates us inside the industry. A lot of the cloud business that we have done to date and a significant portion of our $106 million, we actually provide the full stack from infrastructure through the application stack. We're offering a full range of deployment options in the cloud that we think is really differentiating. No, that's great, Steve. Thanks for that clarification. If I could just ask on the sales comp changes that you mentioned to incentivize more growth in the cloud, any more color you can share there? What are you seeing at your public cloud customers in terms of pricing choices? Is it going more towards blended pricing or consumption-based pricing? Thank you. Yeah. Wamsi, I'll take that as well. It's a great question. We've redesigned our compensation schema for this year so that our sales teams get accelerated compensation when they sell ARR that results in growth inside a customer account if it's an existing customer, and they get a multiplier on it when that growth includes growth in the cloud. We have designed a compensation schema that we believe protects both the base and encourages the sales team to execute growth in the cloud. The other thing I would say is, we're encouraging our sales teams to prospect. We believe that, as you pointed out, our consumption-based pricing model enables us to go after new customers in a very effective way. We're not just focusing on our existing base. We're going to actively prospect and our new sales leader, Todd Cione, is looking at deploying a hunter-based sales model to go after new logos. We're incredibly excited about that. We see the blended pricing model as being very popular, in terms of when our customers look at how they want to operate in the cloud, because it gives them some benefits commercially if they know they're going to execute a certain volume of transactions, and they want to be able to spike according to different workloads. That blended pricing model is really exciting for customers that are just starting with us. That consumption model is really exciting. I think we'll see both models being pretty successful in uptake from the customer base. Thanks a lot, and congrats on the strong execution. Thanks, Wamsi. Your next question comes from Tyler Radke from Citi. Hey, thanks a lot for taking my question. Steve, you talked a lot about several kind of Fortune 100, Fortune 500 public cloud wins, and I'd say in the past, this hasn't been something that you've seen a ton of in terms of the wins and obviously the strong growth in cloud ARR. I guess from a product or execution perspective, is there anything that you could identify that you think has kind of changed your momentum there? Then a follow-up for you or for Mark is just in these cloud wins, maybe help us understand how much uplift you're seeing from customers from a dollar basis as they move to the cloud and they're either expanding capacity or you just see a natural uplift from taking on that infrastructure. Thank you. Thanks, Tyler. I'll take the first part of the question, and I'll let Mark talk a little bit about the expansion that we've seen when existing customers move to the cloud. I think the excitement around our cloud product has really accelerated as we went through the year. As we went through the year, we shifted our research and development investment to be predominantly in the cloud. Just roughly 30% of our investment prior to our changes in 2020 went to cloud, and 70% went to on-prem. We swapped that around, 70% of our R&D investment is now dedicated to the cloud. That's about $200 million, a significant investment in building up our cloud capabilities. What we've been able to do is really build out our integrations across all of the cloud platforms, AWS, Azure, and announcing Google Cloud. Our ethos now is to be able to extract value from data no matter where it sits in the ecosystem. Introducing native object store, being able to use native object stores on the public cloud environments is really attractive to our customers. As we look forward into 2021, we're known just now to be great at delivering that performance and scale on the cloud. In 2021, we're going to get even better. We're adding third-party application ecosystem integration in the cloud. We've got more cloud-native integrations with third-party applications in the cloud. You can bring your own analytics. We are integrating with cloud-native services. This is a complete modernization of Teradata Vantage in the cloud environment, and we think our customers are seeing that, and they want to use that technology to get the best business results that they possibly can. Lots of investment there. Mark, do you want to talk a little bit about expansion? Yeah, sure. To date, it's largely been our existing customers moving some or all of what they're running with us on premises to the cloud, and the growth in ARR can vary. It depends. Are they procuring the infrastructure for us or not? If they're not, you could see minimum or some less ARR moving. Importantly for us, what we've experienced is that for the growth we experienced across 2020, the customers who are already in the cloud with us, they grew over 50% with us during 2020. Those that moved something from on premises to the cloud with us, while it may have been neutral or up slightly when they moved or potentially slightly down, we saw that once they moved with us to the cloud, we saw almost approximately 40% growth, from where they started with us in the cloud, which is obviously very important for us, which is why [mate] made the comment in our prepared remarks, that if we see customers that want to procure the instance of the software, to date, we haven't seen it, but our bigger customers may go that direction. It may seem like an initial decline in ARR, but once we have them there, we see the growth that can occur, and as I mentioned, that's a trade-off we'd gladly make. Obviously, the margin profile of a software only coming to the cloud versus us incurring the infrastructure cost is better as well. Those would be trade-offs We would gladly make because we all know we want our customer base to move to the cloud with us, in Vantage, in the cloud. We're excited about the trends we've seen across 2020 and the growth we've seen there, and we're also very excited about what we've seen in the pipeline and the momentum building of our existing customer base in the cloud. The perception of us in the marketplace is now starting to rapidly change on that front. Great. Thanks so much. As a reminder, to ask a question, press star one. In order to allow everyone time for questions, we ask that you please limit your questions to one. Your next question comes from Katy Huberty from Morgan Stanley. Thank you. Good afternoon and congrats on a really strong quarter. I wanted to ask Mark if you can talk a little bit about the margins in your cloud revenue today versus subscription margins overall. Then when do you expect the two to converge?Then I have a follow-up. Sure. Well, clearly, Katy, as we've mentioned, the margins we experience in the cloud are lower than what we traditionally experienced on-prem because we're at $106 million in the cloud today. We're not at scale. We would expect over time that we view 70% as sort of the benchmark you got to hit and exceed in the public cloud. The revenue threshold to get us there is clearly beyond the $106 million. Is it $300 million-$500 million? Time will tell. We clearly expect those to converge on that front for sure. Okay, that's great. Just also, Mark, just looking at your earnings guidance, $0.38 in the March quarter, if I just divide your annual guidance by four, that would also suggest a similar sort of $0.38, $0.39 run rate through the year. Should we expect that now that you've transitioned to subscription, that EPS is going to be quite stable and we won't see historical seasonality? Or are you ramping investments through 2021, and that's why you're not seeing EPS expansion off the March base? Yeah. As you probably know it, we've experienced seasonality historically. I think we still experience some of that here in 2021 as well, despite the completion of perpetual to subscription, because now we're in the next phase of that on-prem subscription moving to cloud. Does that largely go consumption-based or not? Because if it goes consumption-based, we recognize revenue based on what's consumed, not a ratable spread of what they've signed up for. You do that each and every month, which could create some variability in terms of recurring revenue and what's happening. Then we'll see what happens with the portion of our customers that have done something with the cloud but maintain something with us on-prem. That may change the way contractually that falls to our revenue, which could create some potential seasonality as well. I don't expect it to be sort of stable $0.38 range across the quarters throughout the sequential part of the year. There is still going to be some seasonality here. Okay. Thank you. Your next question comes from Derrick Wood from Cowen. Yeah, great. This is actually Nick Altmann on for Derrick. Thanks for taking our questions. For my first one, can you guys maybe talk about customers who have shifted to the consumption-based pricing model and maybe touch on how the expansion motions are playing out there? Hey, Nick. I'll talk about it at a high level and then ask Mark to comment a little bit more. Yeah. What we've seen from customers who have moved from an on-prem motion to a subscription in the cloud using consumption is actually that the overall level of ARR in many of those customers has increased, and that's as they've brought new workloads to the cloud. Obviously, when you're working in an on-prem environment, you have a constrained physical infrastructure footprint. When we move customers to the cloud, it kind of unleashes their ability to expand their use cases and deployment. An interesting thing for our response to COVID, and when we were helping some of our customers respond to COVID, we gave them some capacity on demand into their infrastructure, and they immediately used that capacity on demand. We're seeing a very similar pattern in terms of as our customers move from on-prem to the cloud, they can take advantage of those elastic environments, and it's given us a great opportunity to talk to them about some of the more advanced analytic use cases that they want to deploy and incremental workloads that they can put on Teradata. It's pretty exciting. Great. Then can you guys just give us a sense of how the install base has trended just in terms of willingness to buy or expand, mainly as it pertains to the macro environment? How much improvement have you guys seen there sort of as the year progressed? Looking ahead, are you starting to see more projects from distressed verticals come back online, or is it a bit too early to tell there? We are really, really happy with our execution in Q3 and Q4 from an ARR growth perspective. I'll refer you to one of the customer examples that we gave in my prepared remarks, which was one of the airlines committing to Teradata in the cloud. Clearly a distressed industry. What we're seeing is that customers who are in an industry which has challenges, if they have the vision to utilize data to get better business results and business outcomes, they can use that data to optimize their operations at a rapid pace to ensure that they can adequately respond to the challenges that are in front of them. I gave one example in the airline, another couple of examples around healthcare, where it's critically important for these organizations to be able to respond to the challenges that are in front of them. We're seeing even industries that you might consider distressed just now using the power of data to really respond to the environmental challenges that they have. Great question though, Derrick. Thanks. Got it. Thank you. Your next question comes from Pri Gadi from Barclays. Hey, everyone. Congrats on the great quarter. If I look to the math for cloud ARR and total ARR guidance, it suggests that almost all the new ARR that you're adding is coming from the cloud. Is this a base case assumption that there will be no on-premise expansions during this year? Hey, Pri. Thanks. Yeah, no, we'll see our on-prem business expand, clearly we're seeing movement from on-prem to the cloud in a major way. We would expect the cloud that we said is going to grow at least 100%. At the same time, we're still going to have customers that are going to be on-prem that haven't done things to the cloud, we expect some of that to move as well. Overall, our on-prem subscription, we would expect would be lower by the end of this year, potentially compared in total might be, right now we're expecting subscription to grow, not at the same rate that we have seen it grow in the past because it's moving to the cloud. The vast majority of the overall subscription growth is coming in the cloud. At the end of the day, total ARR is growing, on-prem subscription ARR is growing, but the growth is being driven by what's going on in the cloud. Got it. Ex- migrations on-premise is still growing. Yeah, it's still growing. As far as where the cloud product is right now, can you give us an idea of how much of the product itself is cloud- native versus just the existing Teradata product that's being hosted on the cloud? Hey, Pri, I'll take that one. We're really happy with the advances that we've made from our product team. They have completely redesigned certain elements of the product, and we continue to transform the underpinnings of the product. What I will say is that we've really improved our cloud-native integrations. In AWS, we integrate with 17 of their cloud-native services. We've got the same level of integration with AWS and Google's first-party services. That clearly makes us a great partner for the cloud service providers. The thing I want to point out, though, is some of our key differentiation and the reason that we are winning in the cloud is because of the Teradata technology that our customers are used to. The level of performance, the level of scalability is delivered in the cloud successfully across all of the dimensions that our customers want to stress, an enterprise data warehouse and analytics capability, whether it be volume of data, concurrent queries, the complexity of those queries, the scalability. All of those capabilities that our customers are used to from the Teradata platform, we deliver inside the cloud environment. I mentioned a little bit earlier, we're turned around our investment to have around $200 million of investment in terms of developing our cloud product. It's just going to get better and better over time. We've completely rethought our R&D team so that we're moving to much more regular and frequent releases of cloud-based technologies and capabilities. It's a great transformation story, and it's great to see that technology coming online for our customers. Our last question comes from Zane Chrane from Bernstein Research. Please go ahead. Hi, thanks for fitting me in. I wanted to ask about the ETL process and migration with customers moving to the newer cloud and subscription offerings. One of the pieces of feedback we heard from the early adopters of customers a couple of years ago that moved from on-premise IDWs to subscription or Teradata in the public cloud or managed cloud, was that the process of migration and rebuilding the ETL pipelines was more labor-intensive and clunky than they had expected. I'm kind of curious what you've done in the last year or two to simplify and maybe automate the process of data migration and rebuilding the ETL for data ingress. Separately, or actually possibly related, can you talk about what you're doing to capture the growing opportunity in streaming analytics for data in motion? Whether it's integrating with something like Dataflow on Google or Apache Beam, et cetera? Thank you. Thanks, Zane. I'll take a stab at those. Yeah, I think our integration with cloud-native services has really helped some of that migration effort, as well as some of the tools and techniques that we've developed to help in migration. As we look to compare moving an existing customer of Teradata to the cloud, we've been able to demonstrate to those customers that given our knowledge of their environments, given the tooling that we have available, that we can do it much more effectively and efficiently, really reducing the time to value of running Teradata in the cloud and getting the business value that they want from their data delivered to them as quickly as possible. One of the wins I referred to actually in our prepared remarks, was a customer that was experiencing that challenge in terms of that data migration. They came back and asked Teradata, instead of them moving to a cloud-native product, "We want to move to Teradata in the cloud. We see that as a much easier migration, and we know that you and your consulting team can help us deliver that." I think we've got a much better value proposition in terms of that. The integration with the cloud-native services allows us to integrate with those modern ETL capabilities, and that also applies to streaming. We're seeing a lot more interest in terms of real-time data analytics, especially with 5G and IoT use cases. We have streaming capabilities in the product just now, but we're also investing to develop more streaming capabilities as we go through 2021. I see. You view the streaming opportunity as being something you'll focus on organic development for, it sounds like, maybe more so than partnering with open source or third-party vendors. Is that the right way to think about it? Look, I think what we're thinking about, as we think about Teradata Vantage, we're really thinking about it as a platform. We are building some capabilities inside the product to help secure streaming, but we're also integrating with the cloud service providers, first-party services around streaming to be able to address that. I think leveraging those cloud-native capabilities is going to be incredibly important and something our customers really want from us. That's how they want us to focus as a platform on what we just excel at, and they can use some of the first-party services from their cloud providers to do some of the streaming type activities. It's a nice blend of activity. That's great to hear. Sounds like a solid strategy. Congrats on a really nice quarter. It seems like getting the right captain for the ship is getting it back on track. Congrats. Thank you, Zane. Thanks very much. I'd like to close out the call today. I'd like to thank you all for joining us. Thank you for the questions. I'm incredibly proud of our progress, and I'm really confident in the future. Our continued solid results, particularly in these challenging times, are a testimony to the hard work of everybody at Teradata, and I just really want to thank and congratulate the team on a great Q4, a great 2020, and looking forward to a great 2021 with them. We remain staunchly focused on our cloud-first transformation and ensuring that we execute and deliver the best multi-cloud data platform to guide customers in gaining the greatest advantage from their data assets. Thank you very much. Ladies and gentlemen, this concludes today's conference call. Thank you for participating. You may now disconnect.
