How to read these numbers
Challenge rate is the share of questions that pushed back, pressed for specifics or questioned management’s assumptions. It describes how questions were asked on the calls tracked here; it does not measure whether any view turned out to be right.
Rounding. Rates are rounded to whole percentages, so a small share can show as 0% even when some questions were challenging. The count beside each rate is exact; “none of N questions” means no question was challenging.
No questions recorded. “—” means there is nothing to calculate: no questions were recorded for that period on the calls tracked here. It does not mean there was no activity.
Fewer than 3 questions. A company-level rate is withheld when fewer than 3 questions were recorded for that company; the questions are still counted everywhere else.
Small samples. Profiles with fewer than 10 questions are marked Limited sample.
Reporting periods. Questions are grouped by the calendar quarter each company’s fiscal reporting period maps to, not by the date of the call. Periods without a calendar mapping are listed separately under their fiscal label.

Calendar 2025 Q4
How is the pipeline for this year tracking? How do you keep up that momentum?
Show response
Josh said Q4 had 2 huge deals plus many medium-sized ones. The foundational level feels good but growth requires more big deals. Big deal hunters in Europe are bringing back more opportunity every quarter. A few really exciting international opportunities for this year.
TASER saw a huge acceleration to 32% growth. Congrats on hitting $1 billion run rate there and also the decline in the officer-related debts. Talk about any specific drivers in the quarter that hel...
Show response
Josh attributed Q4 TASER acceleration to some large deals that pushed from Q3 to Q4. Demand remains very strong. Rick said Apollo cartridge is testing extremely well, better than expected in lab with high clothing penetration and low over-penetration. Heading to Arctic for field testing.

Any more color on where those were, what product they bought, and how is the pipeline shaping up across countries?
Show response

Canada and Australia delivering consistent bookings, South America coming on strong.

we'd love to hear an update on the status of that and what Body Workforce Mini can do to help that

Rick compared ABW Mini to the Axon Body 1 moment in policing, product-market fit validated through joint development with key customers.

Show response

walk us through your assumptions embedded there for NRR. Any color on the AI Era contribution, the sustainability of the strong 123% NRR
Show response

where the supply demand imbalance for TASER 10, great to see that it's still tracking at 2x T7
Show response
Brittany confirmed demand still exceeds supply, investing in more capacity for 2025. Josh added excitement about T10 mission impact. European customers already reporting averted shootings.

Calendar 2026 Q2
It would be great to hear your thoughts on this topic, if it can be an incremental growth driver for your infrastructure monitoring.

Calendar 2025 Q3
Curious to hear how the team is ramping to productivity. Did that help drive some of the strong new logo bookings

Calendar 2026 Q2
The Riverside deal in public safety was— seemed like a big one. Any way to ballpark size that?
Show response
