Accordingly, such reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort. However, it is important to note that these reconciling items could have a significant effect on PagerDuty's future GAAP results. Thank You Resilient, autonomous operations for the AI era.

Customer - A separate legal entity, such as a company or an educational or government institution, that has an active subscription with us or one of our partners to access our platform. In situations where an organization has multiple subsidiaries or divisions, we treat the parent entity as the customer instead of treating each subsidiary or division as a separate customer. Dollar-Based Net Retention (DBNR) - Calculated as of a period end starting with the ARR from the cohort of all customers as of 12 months prior to such period end. Next, we calculate the ARR from these same customers as of the current period end. Period ARR includes any expansion and is net of downgrades or churn over the last 12 months but excludes ARR from new customers in the current period. We then divide the total Current Period ARR by the total Prior Period ARR to arrive at the dollar-based net retention rate. Gross Retention Rate - Calculated as the annualized impact of ARR lost due to downgrade and churn in the quarter compared to starting ARR. Reconciliation PagerDuty, Inc.
