FiscalNote's New PolicyNote Platform Surpasses Legacy FiscalNote Platform in Daily Usage as Customer Adoption Accelerates
WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FiscalNote (NYSE: NOTE), a leading AI-driven policy and regulatory intelligence company, today announced that PolicyNote, its next-generation flagship platform, now surpasses the legacy FiscalNote platform in daily active users, a key milestone in customer engagement and product adoption. The rapid growth is fueled by PolicyNote's intuitive design and quick time-to-value, enabling customers to achieve results with minimal friction. As FiscalNote continues to enhance PolicyNote, it expects to unlock incremental long-term international growth by enabling global organizations to discover, provision, and realize value from the platform without the need for significant support. To facilitate this expansion and streamline cross-border transactions, the Company is evaluating the use of stablecoins as a payment option for international customers. The growth in daily active users on PolicyNote reflects strong customer engagement driven by the Company's high-velocity product innovation. Customer activity continues to exceed or meet key benchmarks, including usage of PolicyNote's advanced AI capabilities to generate insights and streamline workflows. Since the launch of PolicyNote in January of this year, the Company has consistently added new features and improvements, including its Presidential Actions widget, tariff monitoring, AI-powered alert explanations and relevancy scoring, and AI-powered bill forecasts and AI-powered detection of similar bills announced earlier this month. As part of that continued investment, the platform's recently redesigned setup and onboarding flow has further accelerated engagement, helping customers see measurable impact more quickly. Users are now creating and configuring their AI-powered alerts far more quickly: average time to first alert is 94% faster in PolicyNote. With its streamlined design and intuitive user experience, PolicyNote is built to scale globally, and the Company is exploring stablecoins as a means to reduce friction in global transactions. While approximately 90% of FiscalNote's current revenue comes from customers headquartered in the United States, the platform's self-service capabilities will enable the Company to expand its reach internationally, delivering value to new global customers with greater speed and efficiency, while continuing to provide high-touch curation and support for its existing client base. To simplify cross-border transactions and reduce onboarding friction for non-U.S. customers, FiscalNote is evaluating enablement of stablecoins as an additional payment method. This initiative aligns with the evolving regulatory landscape and supports the Company's strategy to accelerate product-led growth in international markets. 'PolicyNote's rapid growth reflects our disciplined focus on customer experience, speed to impact, and sustained product innovation,' said Josh Resnik, CEO & President of FiscalNote. 'This momentum is a clear signal that our strategy is working and that customers are seeing the benefit. As we build towards global, product-led expansion, exploring stablecoin payments reflects our commitment to removing barriers to customer engagement as we reduce friction, scale faster, and reach new markets.'

FiscalNote Holdings Inc (NOTE) Q1 2025 Earnings Call Highlights: Surpassing Expectations Amid ...
Release Date: May 12, 2025 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. FiscalNote Holdings Inc (NYSE:NOTE) exceeded both revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance for Q1 2025, with total revenue reaching $27.5 million. The company reported a significant improvement in adjusted EBITDA, achieving $2.8 million, which is higher than the prior year and above guidance. FiscalNote Holdings Inc (NYSE:NOTE) has successfully reduced its senior term loans by $96 million since December 2023, leading to a decrease in cash interest expense. The launch of the PolicyNote platform has been well-received, with increased customer engagement and a positive impact on user experience. The company is seeing strong pipeline growth, particularly in Europe, and has doubled pipeline creation compared to the same period in 2024. Annual recurring revenue (ARR) has not yet resumed growth, with Q1 2025 ARR at $88 million, down from $94 million in 2024. Net revenue retention decreased to 93% in Q1 2025 from 96% in the prior year, reflecting underperformance at the end of 2024. The company experienced a $4 million decrease in revenue compared to the prior year, primarily due to divestitures. Gross margins on a GAAP basis decreased by 200 basis points due to sunset products and higher amortization expenses. The revenue guidance for Q2 2025 is projected to be lower than Q1 levels, primarily due to recent divestitures. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 5 Warning Signs with NOTE. Q: Can you provide an update on the sales force and go-to-market strategy, especially after the disruptions in late 2024? A: Josh Resnick, CEO, explained that the issues in late 2024 were due to execution problems rather than reductions. Management has been restructured, leading to better execution across the sales funnel. The connection between go-to-market and product teams has improved, allowing for quicker commercial results from product innovations. Q: What is the timeline for migrating customers to the new PolicyNote platform, and how is the transition progressing? A: Josh Resnick stated that they aim to have all core customers migrated by next year. They are accelerating the migration process and expect to start deprecating at least one legacy platform this year. The transition is progressing well, with significant customer engagement and retention improvements. Q: The revenue guidance for Q2 is lower than Q1. Is this due to recent divestitures? A: John Slavaugh, CFO, confirmed that the sequential decline in revenue guidance is primarily due to the revenue recognized from divested businesses, Dragonfly and Oxford, in Q1. Details will be provided in upcoming filings. Q: Can you provide an update on the balance sheet and any anticipated cash from recent transactions? A: John Slavaugh mentioned that they entered a transaction with Thomson Reuters to sell a division in Australia for approximately $6.5 million. About half of this will be used to reduce debt after taxes and expenses. Q: How is the pipeline growth distributed across sectors, and what is driving this growth? A: Josh Resnick noted that pipeline growth is driven by both inbound and outbound efforts, focusing on new logos across various sectors. Increased regulatory complexity and interest in PolicyNote are key drivers, with significant traction in Europe.
