Customer Success
C3 AI remains the leader in AI-powered predictive maintenance solutions, continuing to deliver significant economic value across industries, with heavy adoption in the Industrial, Manufacturing, and Energy sectors.
•Dow, one of the world's largest chemical manufacturers, is enhancing its predictive maintenance capabilities with C3 AI. Using C3 AI Reliability, Dow reduced steam cracker downtime and is now scaling out C3 AI Reliability to additional sites and assets. Additionally, Dow will install C3 Generative AI on top of C3 AI Reliability to provide equipment operators with AI insights, improve alert responses, and expedite the personnel onboarding process.
“C3 AI is our partner that’s working with us on predictive analytics around [steam] crackers — so a 20% reduction around [steam] cracker downtime, by looking at furnace operations and how that works, is a big outcome that we’re expecting,” said Jim Fitterling, CEO, Dow. “We’ve got it on one [steam] cracker right now and then we’ll look to scale that across the fleet.”


•Holcim, a European leader in sustainable building solutions, started with a C3 AI Reliability production pilot in May 2023 and now has 31 facilities in production, monitoring 3,000 sensors from critical equipment including vertical roller mills.
“C3 AI is playing an important role in Holcim’s digital transformation, providing innovative AI solutions that drive efficiency and sustainability,” said Roze Wesby, Head of Plants of Tomorrow, Holcim. “The collaboration between C3 AI and Holcim has led to advancements in operational efficiency at scale, raising the bar for predictive maintenance in our sites. Thanks to C3 AI’s platforms, Holcim has achieved a step-change in asset lifecycle management; improving our reliability and capacity for our customers, as well as reducing environmental impact.”
•Con Edison, one of the nation’s largest energy companies that delivers electric, gas, and steam power to approximately 10 million customers, uses the C3 AI Platform to improve operational efficiency, public safety, billing performance, customer satisfaction, and energy efficiency. Starting with the advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) project in 2017, Con Edison has worked with C3 AI to build out an Enterprise AI program, including applications to predict meter health issues, optimize and conserve voltage outputs, and quickly detect customer safety concerns.
“The AMI project, the largest in Con Edison’s history, included the deployment of 5.3 million smart meters and resulted in significant benefits such as improved outage management and energy efficiency,” said Tom Magee, General Manager, AMI Operations & Solutions, Con Edison. “The use of AI and machine learning has enhanced public safety, optimized grid operation, and achieved substantial energy savings and emission reductions for customers.”

Federal Growth
•C3 AI’s Federal business had a remarkable year with revenue more than doubling in FY24.
•The Company closed 65 Federal agreements, an increase of 48% year-over-year and made inroads to 10 new Federal organizations.
•In the fourth quarter of FY24, the Company entered into new and expansion agreements with the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Marine Corps, the U.S. Intelligence Community, the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency, the Chief Digital Artificial Intelligence Office, Thales Group, and the National Science Foundation.
•The U.S. Air Force Rapid Sustainment Office (RSO) entered into a renewed agreement, significantly expanding their AI footprint by expanding the capabilities and increasing the number of aircraft and systems monitored on the Predictive Analytics and Decision Assistant (PANDA) application. PANDA, co-developed by the U.S. Air Force and C3 AI, optimizes fleet maintenance, increases aircraft availability, and minimizes downtime. The application, which is the designated U.S. Air Force System of Record for all predictive maintenance projects within the RSO, will now monitor systems on two new aircraft (T-7 and KC-46) and expand to include new systems of three currently monitored aircraft (B-1B, C-5, and KC-135).
“C3 AI’s cutting-edge technology has been a game-changer for the U.S. Air Force, driving unparalleled advancements in predictive analytics and maintenance,” said Jimmy Lawrence, Deputy Program Executive Officer and Deputy Director for the Rapid Sustainment Office, USAF Life Cycle Management Center, USAF Materiel Command, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. “The implementation of C3 AI’s solutions has revolutionized the operational capabilities of the Air Force, leading to significant improvements in aircraft readiness and efficiency.”
•The U.S. Navy entered into a new agreement that builds on the work between C3 AI and the U.S. Air Force on the Crowd-Sourced Flight Data (CSFD) Program and expands it into flight test parametric analysis of electronic emissions on the F-35. The CSFD Program enables the rapid delivery of software-defined warfighter capabilities, decreasing risks to operational forces by discovering and resolving anomalies in fielded weapon systems before those systems are required in combat.

Partner Network
C3 AI’s partners remain a key driver of growth and customer success.


•In FY24, C3 AI closed 115 agreements through its partner network, an increase of 62% year-over-year. This includes 91 agreements with AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure.
•The joint 12-month qualified opportunity pipeline with partners increased by 63% year-over-year.
•In the fourth quarter of FY24, partner supported bookings grew by 76% year-over-year with the Company closing 28 agreements through its partner network, including AWS, Baker Hughes, Booz Allen, Google Cloud, and Microsoft.
•The Company deepened its partnership with Fractal and Paradyme to support Version 8 upgrades, customer service engagements, and pilot delivery. These organizations have established dedicated practices around C3 AI and are committed to training over 200 C3 AI–qualified engineers and data scientists in FY25.

C3 Generative AI
The broad applicability of C3 Generative AI is driving the Company into new verticals and accelerating industry diversification.
•In FY24, the Company closed 58 pilot agreements for C3 Generative AI across 15 different industries. The distribution by industry was as follows:

The Company’s guidance includes GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures.

The following table summarizes C3 AI’s guidance for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and full-year fiscal 2025:

(in millions)
First Quarter Fiscal 2025
Guidance
Full Year Fiscal 2025 Guidance
Total revenue
$84.0 - $89.0
$370.0 - $395.0
Non-GAAP loss from operations
$(22.0) - $(30.0)
$(95.0) - $(125.0)

A reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, expenses that may be incurred in the future. Stock-based compensation expense-related charges, including employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions, are impacted by the timing of employee stock transactions, the future fair market value of our common stock, and our future hiring and retention needs, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. We have provided a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the financial statement tables for our historical non-GAAP results included in this press release. Our fiscal year ends April 30, and numbers are rounded for presentation purposes.

Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company reports the following non-GAAP financial measures, which have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

•Non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP loss from operations, and non-GAAP net loss per share. Our non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP loss from operations, and non-GAAP net loss per share exclude the effect of stock-based compensation expense-related charges and employer payroll tax expense related to employee stock-based compensation. We believe the presentation of operating results that exclude these non-cash items provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of our operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods.

•Free cash flow. We believe free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, is useful in evaluating liquidity and provides information to management and investors about our ability to fund future operating needs and strategic initiatives. We calculate free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of property and equipment and capitalized software development costs. This non-GAAP financial measure may be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies. Additionally, the utility of free cash flow is further limited as it does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balances for a given period.

We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally for financial and operational decision-making purposes and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures and should be read only in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. We encourage investors to carefully consider our results under GAAP, as well as our supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand our business. Please see the tables included at the end of this release for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.


Use of Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “will” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. Forward-looking statements in this press release include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our market leadership position, anticipated benefits from our partnerships, financial outlook, our sales and customer opportunity pipeline including our industry diversification, the expected benefits of our offerings (including the potential benefits of our C3 Generative AI offerings), and our business strategies, plans, and objectives for future operations.
