Mike Rosenbaum: Yes. I just — I wouldn’t say that we’ve seen an acceleration in deals moving through. I’m trying to think about, sometimes you see these things just push. And I guess, if we don’t see them push and we see them close, then I guess that’s sort of like an acceleration relative to the average. But I wouldn’t say that the expectations we have for how long an evaluation will take have changed. We just feel more comfortable about the outcome of the evaluation and the outcome of the deal process being positive as we gain — I guess as we gain confidence as the market gains confidence in the solution and our ability to deliver success. And as the references and other customers who have already deployed and gone live on the service, validate that. And so, it’s just I wouldn’t describe it as a cycle acceleration as much as it is just more confidence in the deal to actually close and be decided in our favor.
Operator: Our next question comes from the line of Aaron Kimson with JMP Securities. Please proceed with your question.
Aaron Kimson: You announced a partnership with Swiss Re Connections, talked about it a little bit at the Analyst Day. Can you comment on early progress there and your appetite for more potential partnerships with reinsurers going forward?
Mike Rosenbaum: Yes. This was a very exciting relationship. It is — I guess it’s been in the works for a while talking to them about what we might be able to do together. And I think that the, obviously, the connections event precipitated the opportunity to announce this and start talk about it with customers and talk about it publicly. I would say our momentum in the cloud facilitates a much deeper understanding and relationship with our insurance customers, which creates the potential for us to play a far more interesting role in terms of what I guess I’d say is like orchestrating the relationship between insurance companies and reinsurance entities. There’s a significant amount of data sharing that goes along with providing reinsurance and assessing risk, sort of back and forth between these entities and Guidewire can facilitate that relationship.
We can make that more efficient. There’s a lot of exciting things that we can do with companies like Swiss Re. To the extent that they have analytics models that they’re have developed or would like to see their insurance partners utilize to manage risk more effectively if Guidewire can be a facilitator for that sort of activation and operationally managing that model such that the insurance companies are making better decisions. They’re aligned with the expectations that their reinsurance partners have, that’s a big, big benefit. And I think that what we’re seeing is a lot of excitement about this new model for a centralized cloud service supporting the entire industry can really play a different sort of role in overall risk management, up and down the value chain.
So, I appreciate you bringing this up. I mean we’ve got a lot more work to do with Swiss Re. We’re incredibly excited about where this might go. And we’re excited to be working with them and have the opportunity to talk about that work in public.
Operator: And we have reached the end of the question-and-answer session. I’ll now turn the call back over to CEO, Mike Rosenbaum for closing remarks.
Mike Rosenbaum: I just wanted to say thanks, everybody, for participating in the call. We’re incredibly pleased with the start to the year, and we feel great about how things are progressing on the platform with customers and with partner program and overall momentum in the business. So we look forward to catching up with everybody throughout the quarter. And if we don’t, I guess, we’ll see you at the end of the next quarter. So thanks very much.
Operator: And this concludes today’s conference, and you may disconnect your lines at this time. Thank you for your participation.
