one, quarters seeing we primarily migrations, from quantity is by year, given what So increasing walk the you plan and while outlook company my And is contribution just can dollar within coming to really Understood. converts last the what us that driven new as due thinking your several are it? address the through the over well. is last like overall are the being a and

Kieran McGrath

Sure.

June had due. with $XXX colleagues obviously, are the aware working in convert. of mean, the we million I that coming 'XX, to well convert we address our So We're banking

But we of the actually point the should several to in think to that months. ABL the have to $XXX convert that leverage doing hand million we prefunding of be or reasonably near out next that convert, million prepayment the the on that. should I also to you in address expect We on act coming will, future just up have we also if it. here also I the also able the $XXX of

Operator

Instructions] Our of [Operator with Financial. question comes next Hamed line from the BWS Khorsand

Hamed Khorsand

first the just on question going in that business clarity cloud. this My is into more more model to have you're and ability

projections approach, with sales you're can't outlook? If cloud-first you stable as have faltering why you a going your is quarterly when a always report results. Why

James Chirico

-- me let this So is Jim.

Let me address that.

and the But what's acceleration cloud? a Ukraine on why Kieran question better done pointed of you about how obviously, first, second overall is And in dynamics, going will, the about on, job So as negative think your one first predicting company. couple we the a haven't of revenue more half. to out is going I affecting with performance in had a effect the on if what's that

of customer is our accelerating faster. base, out, address And migration the me second pointed we as dynamic. that's Let that

it's and over hurdle. in the revenue what's you There's the look cloud, private specifically that, a I If We've dig Microsoft take that not, as a accelerating you learned And look on areas is company. the some need and unusual because QX growth both cloud. We QX. in last point-in-time work been really, at private take we the doing in than the at bookings we the look the at And enterprise. contract couple for this driving we in to in times rate mentioned, at we're subscription, and to a activations And optimization that's take quarter had half But that fairness in deals and bookings you that the the and those the magnitude, have you had not this as have And the as that we've we believe recognized the do, of into accelerated more pointed increased. that as look over the obviously, will flexibility solution to in an is When others for was cloud to for contract. lower. second million bringing you of with we part deals record strength subscription. we're move of now that on fairness, quarter. last as the bookings out, and hit $XX of work at as and quarters fairness fact record we increased those to subscription, revenues related growth large

we a quarter. increase pointed in is So not in we the And of but not here, if contract, their not hit just over revenue time. will, saw us time point life in an a point that ratable the decrease, that overall you the bit, significant revenue out rather as first

roughly revenue historically recognize that to have had we So had in the ability XX% around quarter. or so

Going we've need more these that contracts really we've we forward, some taken to the that it the and we're the down, in have as now lower lowered larger aligned to as and and range. larger far percentage of seeing deals percentage what flexibility XX%

recurring moving the the are the in has portfolio increase lost, not revenues had as profile. to that as and just but profile attainment. further overall rebalancing we result of a that lower the continue our a Again, of revenue revenue So percentage Avaya revenues

the enterprise customers, of we it's -- with again, into building a flexibility contracts these our long-term is demand. not more but really loss a reflection of of we're So what

provided the it, and it, you with worked we've repositioned it, that's guidance rebalanced all. update So we've Kieran that to we've taken

Kieran McGrath

this into Jim now, much going and just I just need because pre have been done I and signing. a going more a related And this you're had this I I better what understand, around would think, our know if It's in -- you cloud model I one other back, been we've we arm row subscription point will, us a that, predictable, what built this for is these been easier X If a add where we're deals have get to listen, XXX, realization -- have has transition, have migration quarters maybe that think could has to seen all of that's forward. we've saying. to much longer-term for complication lower that. rates, not now if to you point-in-time we've we

real as private of our well are of business will and I fluctuations. time, these that subscription contracts our public point-in-time think hybrid point more more we significant deals, become to both and start the roll out is through and as signing less see much we'll the ratable they here in and as go cloud, on we

accounting has by. complicated to do getting things, understand but the I a to insight So have this need I into this. job we we that unnecessarily XXX do better live rules that's And think of

So...
