Thank you, Jason. Q2 was another solid quarter of consistently executing our strategy, meeting our commitments for profitable growth, while continuing our investment to meet the long-term consumer needs of ever-expanding digital lives. We delivered another quarter of mid-single-digit bookings growth, up 5%, our highest growth rate since the Avast acquisition, and a double-digit earnings per share growth, up 16%. We also grew our direct paying customers by 400,000 in the quarter, now at a record 39.7 million. Those results are a testament to the solid, disciplined, and consistent execution of our team. On top of that, it is also a clear reflection of what we have talked about for many quarters. People are being exposed to an accelerating threat environment and their awareness is growing with every new breach and scam, text, or email. Those trends are here to stay and are being enhanced by the use or misuse of AI. As consumer awareness grows, we stand ready to empower your digital life with the most innovative and easy-to-use solutions that secure and protect your identity and your hard-earned assets. It is easy to get desensitized to news of yet another breach, but the impact recently is truly staggering. In August, the US National Public Data Breach exposed an estimated 270 million social security numbers, practically two-thirds of all social security numbers ever issued, leaving one out of three Americans at risk of identity attacks. The scale and the frequency of breaches, along with the sophistication and volume of phishing emails and scams, make everyone vulnerable. As we shared in our last report around rising election scams, even young adults who are expected to be the savviest online are proving to be susceptible at higher rates. This unfortunate reality is a big part of why our team at Gen is so mission-driven. We believe that no matter how good these cybercriminals get, our goal is to give you the tools and the solutions that empower you to live your digital life without worry. Delivering digital freedom and peace of mind is no small task, so every day we are focused on upping our game. Just about a year ago, our threat team and technology detected the growing threat of personalized scams at high volumes and quickly delivered our Genie anti-scam product. Powered by AI, Genie was the first embodiment of the future of digital freedom. Not only does it interact with you in an accessible and intuitive way, but it also continually learns and adapts with every interaction. Today, we have over 1.6 million downloads, and its overall efficacy is approaching 100%. Genie is a great example of how we continue to put innovative solutions in the hands of consumers, but it is just the start. In the coming quarters, we plan to enhance the product and expand this anti-scam technology into our core offerings. More to come on that front. Protecting consumers from scams is one of the biggest attack vectors, but as I mentioned earlier, breaches pose an entirely different threat and are also on the rise. Breaches put you, your information, and your hard-earned assets at risk, and it generally happens through no fault of your own. Data you provided to your favorite stores, your healthcare provider, your banks, and the government is being put on the dark web. And as the breaches proliferate, cybercriminals are stitching together different pieces of information to increase their ability to successfully steal your identity or target you for sophisticated and personalized scams. No one is immune. And if you don't believe me, I challenge you to go out and try our free LifeLock data exposure scan, and I’m sure you will be surprised at how much of your information is out there and available. That constant growing threat is why we are continuously investing in and innovating around how we keep your financial assets, your personal information, and your reputation safe. No one is better at helping a victim recover from identity theft than LifeLock. We invented the category, and we have a world-class restoration team that helps repair the damage. But we want to also be sure that we can stop things earlier. That's why we have alerts algorithms and full spend tracking through financial monitoring features to keep you aware and safe in real-time. We recently released Credit Insights to our large block customers as part of our strategy to address the customer needs to keep their finances safe online. This new LifeLock feature provides customers with contextual information to better understand what factors impact their credit score with actionable insights to build or improve their credit rating over time. From spend tracking to helping you better manage your subscription spending or virtual secure credit card, we see an increase in demand for trust-based services and will continue to expand what we do for consumers in that area, so they feel empowered to manage their finances confidently, achieve financial freedom, and thrive in their digital journeys. We see a long runway of growth with meaningful opportunities to expand in each pillar of our consumer cyber-safety portfolio as we continue to innovate and execute. In Q2, we grew cyber savings bookings over 5% driven by strong momentum in identity where bookings were up 8% year-over-year. We also drove double-digit growth in new customer acquisitions, maintained solid momentum in upselling into identity memberships, and continued expanding our partnership network. With so much opportunity in front of us, we will continue to invest to serve the expanding needs of consumers, whether that be adding to our AI capabilities to better match our services to our customers and deliver more intuitive and engaging experiences for them or through innovation into new and existing products or even expanding our reach to new markets for services like identity theft protection. Even with the most comprehensive solutions in the market, we know we can’t rest, so expect us to deliver innovation and more engaging experiences to our customers. While we remain focused on the future and innovation, operating with discipline and meeting our commitments are core parts of our Gen DNA. Operating KPIs remain very healthy, supporting yet another quarter of double-digit growth in non-GAAP earnings per share, which includes many of our investments for long-term growth. Since our Investor Day last year, where we laid out our long-term goals of accelerating growth to the mid-single-digits and driving non-GAAP EPS growth of 12% to 15%, we have consistently executed and delivered on our commitments. We are pleased with our Q2 results and excited about what we can deliver in the future. As a result, we strengthened our annual guidance, and we are making steady progress towards achieving the three-year financial goals we shared at our Investor Day last November. We are passionate about our mission to empower and protect every aspect of digital life, and we're confident that our focus on the customers, our pace of innovation, and our disciplined execution will enable us to achieve our goals to drive shareholder value. And with that, let me pass it on to Natalie to review our financial performance in detail.

Thank you, Vincent, and hello, everyone. For today's call, I will walk through our fiscal Q2 2025 results followed by our outlook for Q3 and full year fiscal year 2025. I will focus on non-GAAP financials and year-over-year growth rates unless otherwise stated. Q2 was another quarter of solid execution with strong financial results at or above the midpoint of our guidance, and reflects our 21st consecutive quarter of growth. Q2 bookings were $964 million, up 5% in constant currency and up 4% in USD. Cyber Safety bookings, which exclude our legacy business lines, also grew 5% year-over-year in constant currency, our highest growth rate since the Avast acquisition. This quarter, there was a surge in consumer awareness, interest, and demand for identity theft protection after the national public data breach. This is when our brand awareness and vast LifeLock protection offerings really cut through, and we drove stronger customer acquisition and bookings as a result, helping to shore up the higher bookings growth rate in the quarter. Moving to revenue. Total Q2 revenue was $974 million, up 3% in USD and constant currency. Cyber Safety revenue grew 4% year-over-year, driven by broad-based growth across our consumer security and identity and privacy business lines. Stable growth in our Security business lines reflects the success of our cross-sell program as our Norton 360 security customers continue to add more adjacent offerings and we drive improved monetization. Identity and privacy growth was more pronounced with faster growth in our Norton 360 with LifeLock product as consumers increasingly adopt comprehensive cyber safety membership with identity solutions. Direct revenue was $860 million, up 3%, supported by improvements across our key performance metrics of direct customers, ARPU, and retention. Let me share some specifics. A key ingredient to our growth strategy is driving net new customers, and in Q2 we expanded our customer base for the fifth consecutive quarter, increasing to 39.7 million, up 389,000 sequentially and up over 1.1 million year-over-year. We continue to leverage our broad range of marketing channels and vast product portfolio, dynamically shifting and increasing marketing investments based on demand, while optimizing our sites to drive improved traffic conversion. This quarter, our net new customer count growth was mostly driven by continued international and mobile expansion efforts, and we had the additional opportunity to further drive our identity offerings with the increased market demand. On monetization, our monthly direct ARPU was $7.26 in USD, up $0.03 sequentially and up $0.01 compared to last year's result. Note that FX helped this metric by $0.02 sequentially, but had no impact year-over-year. Operationally, ARPU remains stable to slightly up across our customer cohorts by brand and by market. As we grow our customer base, we have demonstrated the ability to further monetize after their first purchase, whether through cross-selling complementary products or upselling to higher-tier memberships, both avenues providing additional customer value and enhanced cyber safety protection coverage. Our efforts to better customize and personalize offerings at the right moments of truth are working. And as we add new features and expand our portfolio, we will continue to feed this flywheel. The expanded values and services provided to our customers is also reflected in the retention increases to date. In Q2, our direct retention rate was 78%, in line with the prior quarter and improving by a point year-over-year, steadily progressing towards our goal of 80%. While each point of retention will get harder to achieve as we continue to drive new customer growth, our teams are focused on driving gains at the cohort and product level. And as Gen Stack gets rolled out to more customers, we are driving better targeting and in-product messaging with the goal to create more personalized customer experiences that will in turn drive higher customer loyalty, retention, and increased lifetime value. As we look forward, we will continue to focus on keeping our already high retention rates in our Norton and LifeLock brands stable, and drive increases with our mobile customers and our Avast brands. Turning to our partner business. Partner revenue was $102 million in Q2, up 7% year-over-year as reported and up 8% in constant currency as we grow our identity and privacy offerings. Our employee benefits channel continued to scale, helping over 10,000 companies protect their employees from identity and cyber threats. As consumer awareness of identity theft grows and companies turn to offering more comprehensive benefits to their employees, our pipeline is strengthening. Our telco partnerships are also helping us scale our identity membership offerings internationally, leveraging their partner scale and broad customer base to drive adoption in targeted expansion markets. And as consumers increasingly gravitate towards identity and privacy solutions, our private browsers have also been an accelerator for partner growth as we see strong adoption in our customer base. Across our diverse set of partner channels, we are making steady progress towards $0.5 billion in annual partner revenue over the next years. Rounding out our revenue, our legacy business lines contributed $12 million this quarter, down from $16 million the prior year. As a reminder, we expect our legacy revenue to continue declining double-digits year-over-year and represents approximately 1% of our total revenue. Turning to profitability. Q2 operating income was $567 million, up 4% year-over-year and translating to an operating margin of 58.2%. As I noted earlier, we are making focused investments to capitalize on the growth opportunities we see in the market, and that's reflected in our strong first half booking results. We continued to invest in marketing across all channels with an always-on optimization of existing funds and deployment of incremental funds to expand our customer base and accelerate growth. We're also investing in R&D and our longer-term foundational technology capabilities, while launching new offerings to fortify our comprehensive cyber safety product portfolio and stay ahead of emerging threats. And as we've demonstrated in prior quarters, we will continue to fund these investments through our operating leverage and by operating lean across the G&A organizations, now at a record-low of approximately 2% of revenue. Building on the strength of our KPIs, along with our solid execution against expectations in the first half, we will continue to invest in our business with the same disciplined approach as we focus on driving sustainable mid-single-digit growth. Q2 net income was $336 million, up 12% year-over-year. Diluted EPS was $0.54 for the quarter, up 16% year-over-year in line with our guidance. Interest expense related to our debt was $142 million. Our non-GAAP tax rate remained steady at 22%. And our ending share count was 622 million, down 22 million year-over-year reflecting the impact of share repurchases. Turning to our balance sheet and cash flow. Q2 ending cash balance was $737 million. We are supported by over $2.2 billion of total liquidity, consisting of our ending Q2 cash balance and $1.5 billion of revolver. Q2 operating cash flow was $158 million, and free cash flow was $156 million, which included approximately $70 million of cash interest payments this quarter. As a reminder, Q2 is seasonally high, our highest use of cash given the concentration of tax payments that are due in the quarter. And as a result, we did not purchase any stock or pay down additional debt this quarter. Also important to note, due to the timing of our quarter-end being on September 27 this year, our Q2 ending balance does not reflect our $89 million in cash interest and $58 million paid for our maturity schedule on September 30. As we look forward, we remain committed to our capital allocation strategy, returning 100% of excess free cash flow to shareholders, maintaining our dividend, and balancing our capital allocation to both debt paydown and opportunistic share buyback. In the quarter, we paid $77 million to shareholders in the form of our regular quarterly dividend of $0.125 per common share. For Q3 fiscal 2025, the Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.125 per common share to be paid on December 11, 2024 for all shareholders of record as of the close of business on November 18, 2024. Since the start of fiscal year 2023, we have paid down over $2 billion worth of debt and have deployed a total of $1.6 billion of share repurchases over that time period. With our strong cash flow generation, we will continue to deploy our capital to achieve the long-term objectives laid out in our Analyst Day. Now, turning to our Q3 and fiscal '25 outlook. For Q3, we expect non-GAAP revenue in the range of $980 million to $990 million, translating to approximately 4% growth in cyber safety and Q3 non-GAAP EPS to be in the range of $0.54 to $0.56. For fiscal year 2025, we are strengthening our prior guidance range and now expect full year revenue in the range of $3.905 billion to $3.930 billion, translating to 3% to 4% growth in cyber safety, expressed in constant currency, supported by expected cyber safety bookings growth of 4% to 5%. We have raised the lower end of our EPS guidance and now expect non-GAAP EPS to be in the range of $2.18 to $2.23 per share, representing an annual increase of 12% to 15% in constant currency and in line with the EPS growth objectives we shared last November. In summary, our Q2 results keep us on-target for our 2025 plan, and we remain well positioned to achieve our long-term goals. Our key performance indicators continue to trend in the right direction. We are executing our plan, and our strategic growth framework provides us guide points along the journey. As always, thank you for your time today, and I will now turn the call back to the operator to take your questions.

Okay, good afternoon, and thank you for taking the questions and congrats on the strong Q2 results here.

Yeah. Absolutely. Welcome to the coverage.

Thank you. Thank you very much. I wanted to dig into the net adds this quarter, which I thought were very impressive. I mean, it seems like it's almost a guarantee that every adult in the US now has their personal data on the dark web, thanks to all the breaches we saw this summer, including that National Public Data breach. So do you think the net adds will improve, particularly in the US going forward? Because I think you said it was more influenced by the international growth this quarter?

The national data breach certainly raised awareness about risks. This quarter, we expanded our customer base across all brands and continents, particularly in the Americas and Europe. We noticed a significant increase, especially in identity protection in the US. Currently, we estimate that roughly one in three Americans has enough personal data exposed on the dark web for criminals to create a profile and conduct identity theft. It’s essential that we continue to raise awareness so that everyone understands these risks. It’s similar to insurance; a major incident often prompts the need for protection.

Got it. Thank you. And then I wanted to maybe just a clarification. I think last quarter you talked about the Norton cross-sell penetration had increased to 20%. I didn't catch it this quarter if you gave that. But I was really wondering also, did you see an improvement in the LifeLock attach rate or customers upgrading to that higher-end membership that includes LifeLock this quarter, given all the breach activity?

Thank you for the question. This is Natalie. We definitely observed an increase in our cross-sell penetration, which has been a key growth driver for several consecutive quarters. We outlined this as one of the essential levers for achieving sustainable accelerated growth in the mid-single digits. It's important for us to share our starting point and the milestones necessary to achieve this growth rate in the long term. While we won't provide a specific metric each quarter, we expect consistent performance that contributes not only to our bookings growth but also to our average revenue per user from cross-sell. Regarding the LifeLock attach rate, as you've likely noticed, our LifeLock customers are very valuable and retain well. This quarter has been particularly positive for our business, with increased LifeLock acquisitions and more customers upgrading to higher membership tiers, driven partly by the recent NPD breach and heightened market demand.

Got it. Thank you. Keep up the good work.

Thank you.

Hey, team, good evening. This is Ryan Powderly on for Saket tonight. Thanks for taking the question. Congrats on a nice quarter. And, Natalie, maybe first for you. That was some helpful commentary just around the buybacks and de-levering activity this quarter, understanding the cash constrictions. Just going forward as we take a look at the next near and mid-term, can you talk about how you're going to be balancing buybacks and de-levering over the next few quarters?

Yeah. I would say it's going to be a consistent approach that we've taken for the last handful of quarters. Of course, we all know what's happening in the debt market, and the cost of debt now is very different than the environment we were in a year ago. But both are very important for us in terms of capital allocation strategy. We'll strike the right balance quarter in, quarter out—not a specific percentage because we flex based on the macroeconomic indicators. So, everything from the cost of debt to the timing of the cash, Q2 is our highest use of cash, so we were largely constricted in terms of what else we could do for additional capital allocation, but we also know we're highly, highly cash generators. So, the back half of capital allocation would be very balanced and very interesting.

Got it. That's super helpful. For my follow-up, I would like to explore another aspect of net adds that caught my attention. Can you discuss first-year retention and its trends? We mentioned this during Analyst Day, so I'm curious if there have been any improvements and how that's been evolving.

Yeah. So our first year retention rate is very consistent to up. And I'd point that to our continuously innovative product roadmap. The range of values and services that we are bringing to market is very, very competitive, very relevant and highly in-demand. And we make sure that we're not only bringing great products and services to market, but that we're competitively priced, and our messaging and our personalization is as cut through to the customers as possible so that they understand what we can be for them in their ever-increasing risk of cyber safety. And so, yes, we see very, very solid results in first year — in all of our retention rates, which is why we've been able to scale up to 78% overall. But yes, the first year renewal rates are higher than they have been in the past.

Very helpful. Thanks guys.

Thank you.

Thank you for taking my questions.

Hi, Peter.

Specifically, first of all, can you talk about Genie AI—hi, Natalie, how are you? So with—I think you mentioned, I think it was like 1.6 million, 1.7 million downloads. But Vincent, in your commentary, you called out, I think, you said more to come on that front, but will enable or embed AI across your core offerings. Can you maybe just talk a little bit about your kind of what the aspirations are there in terms of putting that across the platform? And then maybe explain to us the monetization opportunities, or if it's more of a tool to just to kind of be more competitive? Just help us kind of balance those out there.

Yeah, it will be all of our lever, but let me explain, right. So definitely, we can see a very strong rise in scam, personalized scams and volume personalized scams through the use of AI. And when we came out with Genie, we were singly focused on really developing our LLMs to be able to spot those scams and then help our consumers detect what is a scam and what is not. And we did that also with a conversational interface, you can also decide on what's the next step with the scam. We've had 1.6 million downloads, very strong models and I think we're now ready to move that into our overall portfolio. We'll start first with the Norton 360 membership being the core Genie assistant or the anti-scam assistant in the first three levels of our Norton 360 plan. And then we'll ramp up in features moving from tech scams to voice scams to call blocks to scam insurance through the different plans, if you want, all the way to Norton 360 with LifeLock. So that's coming now. The first path of monetization is to help our customers to move and upgrade to the next level of plan that not only provides the current features of safety but extend to all of those I've just mentioned. And there will be a Genie Pro cross-sell, if you want for those who want to stay tied to their old plan and just want to have a standalone anti-scam tool.

Thanks for that. And maybe the second question or follow-up here is, benefits enrollment. I know this was the quarter and I think most would sign up for it. So maybe can you just give us an update on how that pipeline kind of closed out for the quarter versus expectations? And then kind of if you think about how this season ended, any changes that you're making to the go-to-market or to your partners to kind of accelerate that for next year? Thanks.

So, we continue to grow our employee benefit channel double-digit. It's both growing on acquiring new accounts, but also we're working with each account and putting the right marketing and communication engagement materials to have more sign-ups in those accounts. We've seen growth through the last few quarters. We have a very strong funnel. We've always had a very strong funnel. It comes more to another jump in growth if you want when it comes to the enrollment view where we can subscribe more customers if you want within those accounts. We obviously integrate everything we see, the strong funnel and the activity in marketing I have just mentioned into our forecast. And I think we feel very good about the continued development of that channel, in which we've enrolled also on new products and go all the way to a full reputation defender service for executives and below.

If I can actually just ask one more. Are these agreements when you go into a company and offer the benefits, is it an enterprise agreement or how does that get priced versus the consumer model? Just curious in terms of the pricing model versus the consumer model?

Absolutely. So the pricing is kind of an enterprise agreement, but it's on a per-proceed basis. It either is fully sponsored or partially sponsored by the employer benefit plans, and the pricing is slightly below, but not materially below what you charge from the consumers.

Thank you for the color. Thank you.

Yeah.

Great. Hi guys. I wanted to go back to the direct customer net adds. So when we look at the 389,000, how much of that would you say is coming from the adds of international and mobile versus what you said the better identity sales on the back of the national data breach? And really what I'm trying to ask here is what do you think is the normalized customer growth in the remainder of the year?

Hey, this is Natalie. I'll address that. Most of our sequential net customer additions have been driven by our expansion of mobile solutions and our growth in international markets. Both factors have consistently contributed to our customer acquisition efforts as we enhance our value for mobile users. This trend continued in Q2. Additionally, we observed increased demand for our identity offerings. Moving forward, it's crucial for us to maintain a strong focus on healthy customer acquisition on a global scale across all our brands and platforms. We will keep expanding internationally as we find new markets for customer acquisition. We're just beginning to enhance the value and engagement we offer to our growing base of mobile users and customers. Furthermore, we will continue to support all the brands within our portfolio since each one is important. Going forward, we will balance our investments in product development and technology solutions along with our various marketing channels to optimize our healthy customer acquisition, which in turn drives our increased ARPU, cross-sell opportunities, upsell efforts, and overall growth in retention and bookings.

Got it. Excuse me. And maybe as a follow-up, looking at the guidance raise this year. For the full year, I saw in the quarter your negative currency impacts went down to about $1 million from $7 million over the last few quarters. How much of that is driving your guidance raise versus just the better business trends that you're seeing?

It's not significant for us. When we adjust our guidance, we simply use the current currency rates available to us and do not forecast any currency changes.

Got it. Okay. Thank you.

Hey, good evening. Thank you for taking my questions.

Hey.

Hey. It was a solid quarter with a strong record of net additions. I want to ask about the cost side. The EBIT margin appears to be slightly higher than in recent quarters. Can you share what you are currently seeing regarding advertising costs? I know they have fluctuated in the past.

It varies across all the brands and different channels. We have a diverse set of channels, and our marketing spend in those areas is increasing. You're referring to the gross margin rates, and we do notice shifts in our marketing portfolio. We focus on achieving a healthy return on investment for customer acquisition and make use of the diversification in our channels. There are different accounting treatments depending on the marketing channels, so it's important to factor that in when considering gross margin, operating margin, and EBITDA margin. This understanding helps explain why we can maintain a consistent operating margin quarter-over-quarter, as it relates to the P&L profile of the marketing channel expenses for this quarter.

Maybe can I be more specific in the direct-to-consumer side of the business, how would you say advertising costs have been trending in the last few quarters, up or down?

Yeah. So overall, I would say it is definitely getting more competitive. Now keep in mind, our CACs by brand and CACs by channel are very, very different. And so overall, it's stable to up in terms of cost of acquisition. But when you think about it side-by-side and when we talk about our business sequentially, when we talk about taking and leveraging the increased market demand for LifeLock, that's obviously going to be a much, much higher absolute dollar CAC to acquire that much higher-valued customer than if you were to think about a lower AV security customer add in a new growth market internationally.

Got it. So it's higher lifetime value subscriber, but maybe initially might be a little bit higher CAC, does that make sense? Okay. Thank you.

Yes.

Hey, it's Dan Bergstrom for Matt Hedberg. Thanks for taking our questions. Natalie, you just mentioned accelerated bookings growth in your answer to one of the last questions. That 5% constant currency number, really nice to see, especially following the uptick to 4% last quarter. And then it looks like the key assumptions moved up to 4% to 5% from 3% to 5% last quarter. Maybe just what could that 5% portend for revenue growth over the next year? Should we think of maybe the difference between bookings and revenue growth that's narrowing or maybe solidifying the potential around revenue acceleration? Just any further thoughts around the accelerating bookings growth here.

The majority of our portfolio is predictable in nature. Therefore, it will be gradually removed from the balance sheet in a consistent manner. We don't experience much seasonality in the size of our quarterly results. Overall, it will phase out over the next 12 months. While we have some monthly subscribers, which account for a smaller portion of our business, those figures will be reflected in both bookings and revenue during the same period since we recognize revenue as we provide the service monthly. Generally, most of our portfolio operates on an annual subscription basis, and a significant portion will be recognized over the next four quarters.

That's helpful. Thanks. And then maybe a little more on any action that you may be undertook following that social security number breach. I mean, did you change marketing, messaging channels? It seems like you had pretty precious timing around the personal data exposure product. Any specifics you may have done to lean into it a little further?

Yes. We did a full reallocation in terms of assessing where to put the marketing dollars, a reallocation into the LifeLock business for sure in the brands and services. And with that, we did a healthy balance across the different channels to go where the demand was. There's a lot of demand for identity, obviously, in SEO as well as paid search, and then also the affiliate channels really helped us with referral traffic to bring them to our platform on the LifeLock side.

That's great. Thank you.

Thanks.
