We are rebuilding the company focused on the $40 billion skilling market, which we believe will be a double-digit revenue growth business for Chegg, with strong margins and cash flow in the years ahead. To achieve this, we have reorganized Chegg around 2 focused business units: Chegg Skilling, which is now our growth engine and our legacy academic learning services, which we are managing to generate free cash flow. Together, this structure gives us the financial flexibility to invest and grow opportunities within skilling while creating long-term shareholder value. We are excited about our future and feel confident that this new structure sets us up for success.μš°λ¦¬λŠ” 400μ–΅ λ‹¬λŸ¬ 규λͺ¨μ˜ μŠ€ν‚¬λ§(직무 μ—­λŸ‰ ꡐ윑) μ‹œμž₯에 μ§‘μ€‘ν•˜μ—¬ νšŒμ‚¬λ₯Ό μž¬νŽΈν•˜κ³  있으며, μ΄λŠ” ν–₯ν›„ Cheggμ—κ²Œ 두 자릿수 맀좜 μ„±μž₯ 사업이 될 것이며, κ°•λ ₯ν•œ λ§ˆμ§„κ³Ό ν˜„κΈˆνλ¦„μ„ μ°½μΆœν•  κ²ƒμœΌλ‘œ λ―ΏμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 이λ₯Ό λ‹¬μ„±ν•˜κΈ° μœ„ν•΄ μš°λ¦¬λŠ” Cheggλ₯Ό 2개의 μ§‘μ€‘λœ μ‚¬μ—…λΆ€λ‘œ μž¬νŽΈν–ˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€: ν˜„μž¬ 우리의 μ„±μž₯ 엔진인 Chegg Skillingκ³Ό μž‰μ—¬ν˜„κΈˆνλ¦„ μ°½μΆœμ„ λͺ©ν‘œλ‘œ κ΄€λ¦¬ν•˜κ³  μžˆλŠ” λ ˆκ±°μ‹œ ν•™μˆ  ν•™μŠ΅ μ„œλΉ„μŠ€μž…λ‹ˆλ‹€. μ΄λŸ¬ν•œ ꡬ쑰λ₯Ό 톡해 μš°λ¦¬λŠ” μŠ€ν‚¬λ§ λ‚΄ μ„±μž₯ κΈ°νšŒμ— νˆ¬μžν•  수 μžˆλŠ” 재무적 μœ μ—°μ„±μ„ ν™•λ³΄ν•˜λŠ” λ™μ‹œμ— μž₯기적인 μ£Όμ£Όκ°€μΉ˜λ₯Ό μ°½μΆœν•  수 μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. μš°λ¦¬λŠ” λ―Έλž˜μ— λŒ€ν•΄ κΈ°λŒ€ν•˜κ³  있으며, 이 μƒˆλ‘œμš΄ ꡬ쑰가 우리의 성곡을 μœ„ν•œ κΈ°λ°˜μ„ λ§ˆλ ¨ν–ˆλ‹€κ³  ν™•μ‹ ν•©λ‹ˆλ‹€.
We are already seeing positive early signs. In Q4, Chegg Skilling delivered $18 million in revenue, positioning us for double-digit growth for 2026. Our legacy business, Chegg Study continues to serve more than 1 million students. And with our new streamlined org structure, is providing meaningful cash flow to fund value creation. As we have expressed, changes in search interfaces continue to impact our traffic. Yet despite these changes, the quality and accuracy of our services continues to drive high retention rates. We are now focused on optimizing pricing and packaging and testing multiple strategies to extend our operational runway and drive more free cash flow.이미 긍정적인 초기 μ‹ ν˜Έλ“€μ΄ λ‚˜νƒ€λ‚˜κ³  μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 4뢄기에 Chegg Skilling은 1,800만 λ‹¬λŸ¬μ˜ λ§€μΆœμ„ λ‹¬μ„±ν–ˆμœΌλ©°, μ΄λŠ” 2026λ…„ 두 자릿수 μ„±μž₯을 μœ„ν•œ λ°œνŒμ„ λ§ˆλ ¨ν–ˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 우리의 λ ˆκ±°μ‹œ 사업인 Chegg StudyλŠ” κ³„μ†ν•΄μ„œ 100만 λͺ… μ΄μƒμ˜ ν•™μƒλ“€μ—κ²Œ μ„œλΉ„μŠ€λ₯Ό μ œκ³΅ν•˜κ³  μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 그리고 μƒˆλ‘­κ²Œ κ°„μ†Œν™”λœ 쑰직 ꡬ쑰λ₯Ό 톡해 κ°€μΉ˜ μ°½μΆœμ„ μœ„ν•œ 자금으둜 ν™œμš©ν•  수 μžˆλŠ” 의미 μžˆλŠ” ν˜„κΈˆνλ¦„μ„ μ œκ³΅ν•˜κ³  μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€.

We have a clear objective to use that cash to fund new growth opportunities and increase the value for our shareholders. Given the global demand for workforce skilling has already reached 40 billion, we feel it's a huge opportunity for Chegg, and we are well positioned to serve this market, particularly in AI language, technical fluency and durable skills. Our brand is trusted by learners worldwide and our skills courses are grounded in learning science and data-driven instructional design. Our platform tracks learner progress in real time, delivering predictive nudges and timely interventions that improve engagement, retention and completion rates.μš°λ¦¬λŠ” 이 ν˜„κΈˆμ„ μƒˆλ‘œμš΄ μ„±μž₯ κΈ°νšŒμ— νˆ¬μžν•˜κ³  μ£Όμ£Ό κ°€μΉ˜λ₯Ό λ†’μ΄λŠ” 데 μ‚¬μš©ν•œλ‹€λŠ” λͺ…ν™•ν•œ λͺ©ν‘œλ₯Ό κ°€μ§€κ³  μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 인λ ₯ μŠ€ν‚¬λ§μ— λŒ€ν•œ κΈ€λ‘œλ²Œ μˆ˜μš”κ°€ 이미 400μ–΅ λ‹¬λŸ¬μ— λ‹¬ν•œ μƒν™©μ—μ„œ, μš°λ¦¬λŠ” 이것이 Cheggμ—κ²Œ μ—„μ²­λ‚œ 기회라고 μƒκ°ν•˜λ©°, 특히 AI μ–Έμ–΄, 기술적 μˆ™λ ¨λ„ 및 지속 κ°€λŠ₯ν•œ μŠ€ν‚¬ λΆ„μ•Όμ—μ„œ 이 μ‹œμž₯을 잘 κ³΅λž΅ν•  수 μžˆλŠ” μœ„μΉ˜μ— μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 우리 λΈŒλžœλ“œλŠ” μ „ 세계 ν•™μŠ΅μžλ“€λ‘œλΆ€ν„° μ‹ λ’°λ₯Ό λ°›κ³  있으며, 우리의 μŠ€ν‚¬ κ°•μ’ŒλŠ” ν•™μŠ΅ κ³Όν•™κ³Ό 데이터 기반 ꡐ수 섀계에 κΈ°λ°˜ν•˜κ³  μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 우리 ν”Œλž«νΌμ€ ν•™μŠ΅μžμ˜ 진도λ₯Ό μ‹€μ‹œκ°„μœΌλ‘œ μΆ”μ ν•˜μ—¬ 예츑적 넛지와 μ μ‹œ κ°œμž…μ„ μ œκ³΅ν•¨μœΌλ‘œμ¨ 참여도, μœ μ§€μœ¨ 및 μ™„λ£Œμœ¨μ„ ν–₯μƒμ‹œν‚΅λ‹ˆλ‹€.

Woolf specifically expands how we can serve learners as they provide accredited degree pathways that allows for acquired skills to count towards recognized credentials. We've also extended a few key contracts for companies like L'Oreal and PPG. Our goal is to further extend our reach into global enterprise, institutional and academic markets. Looking ahead to 2026, we plan to onboard additional employer and institutional partners both directly and through leading marketplaces. We continue to expand the depth and breadth of our curriculum.

Accelerate the growth of our Skilling business by expanding our offerings and network partners domestically and through Europe, increase free cash flow to invest in the future growth of skilling. And strengthen our balance sheet by ending the year with 0 debt and meaningful cash balance. We are encouraged by the results we are seeing in the skills business and are excited about the path ahead. We successfully transformed our business from a print textbook rental business to an online learning company. And now we are transitioning from a D2C business to a B2B skills learning platform. We are excited about the work we have done so far, and we look forward to updating you next quarter.κ΅­λ‚΄ 및 유럽 μ „μ—­μ—μ„œ 제곡 μ„œλΉ„μŠ€μ™€ λ„€νŠΈμ›Œν¬ νŒŒνŠΈλ„ˆλ₯Ό ν™•λŒ€ν•˜μ—¬ Skilling μ‚¬μ—…μ˜ μ„±μž₯을 κ°€μ†ν™”ν•˜κ³ , Skilling의 미래 μ„±μž₯에 νˆ¬μžν•˜κΈ° μœ„ν•œ μž‰μ—¬ν˜„κΈˆνλ¦„μ„ μ¦λŒ€μ‹œν‚€λ©°, μ—°λ§κΉŒμ§€ 무뢀채와 의미 μžˆλŠ” ν˜„κΈˆ μž”μ•‘μ„ λ‹¬μ„±ν•˜μ—¬ 재무ꡬ쑰λ₯Ό κ°•ν™”ν•˜λŠ” κ²ƒμž…λ‹ˆλ‹€. μš°λ¦¬λŠ” μŠ€ν‚¬ μ‚¬μ—…μ—μ„œ λ‚˜νƒ€λ‚˜κ³  μžˆλŠ” 성과에 κ³ λ¬΄λ˜μ–΄ 있으며, μ•žμœΌλ‘œμ˜ λ°©ν–₯에 λŒ€ν•΄ κΈ°λŒ€ν•˜κ³  μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. μš°λ¦¬λŠ” μ„±κ³΅μ μœΌλ‘œ 인쇄 κ΅κ³Όμ„œ λŒ€μ—¬ μ‚¬μ—…μ—μ„œ 온라인 ν•™μŠ΅ κΈ°μ—…μœΌλ‘œ 사업을 μ „ν™˜ν–ˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 그리고 μ§€κΈˆμ€ D2C(μ†ŒλΉ„μž 직접 판맀) μ‚¬μ—…μ—μ„œ B2B μŠ€ν‚¬ ν•™μŠ΅ ν”Œλž«νΌμœΌλ‘œ μ „ν™˜ν•˜κ³  μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. μš°λ¦¬λŠ” μ§€κΈˆκΉŒμ§€ μˆ˜ν–‰ν•œ μž‘μ—…μ— λŒ€ν•΄ κΈ°λŒ€ν•˜κ³  있으며, λ‹€μŒ 뢄기에 μ—¬λŸ¬λΆ„κ»˜ μ—…λ°μ΄νŠΈν•˜κΈ°λ₯Ό κΈ°λŒ€ν•©λ‹ˆλ‹€.

CFO, Principal Financial & Accounting Officer and Treasurer

Thank you, Dan, and good afternoon. Today, I will be presenting our financial performance for the fourth quarter of 2025, along with the company's outlook for the first quarter of 2026. We are introducing our new revenue breakout to provide transparency into our Chegg Skilling business. The historical revenue breakout for the past few years can be found on our data sheet on our Investor Relations website. We delivered a good fourth quarter.

We exceeded our revenue expectations and surpassed the high end of our adjusted guidance by $2 million, reflecting the initial positive impact of our new focus and turnaround efforts. Our strategic shift into the large scaling market positions us for the next phase of long-term sustainable growth with strong margins. During the quarter, we also took steps to enhance our capital structure repurchasing $9 million of our 2026 convertible notes at a discount. In the fourth quarter, we delivered $18 million in Skilling revenue with double-digit growth underscoring the significant market opportunity and the momentum we are seeing.μ €ν¬λŠ” 맀좜 κΈ°λŒ€μΉ˜λ₯Ό μ΄ˆκ³Όν–ˆμœΌλ©°, μ‘°μ • κ°€μ΄λ˜μŠ€ 상단을 200만 λ‹¬λŸ¬ μƒνšŒν•˜λŠ” 싀적을 λ‹¬μ„±ν–ˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. μ΄λŠ” μƒˆλ‘œμš΄ 집쀑 μ „λž΅κ³Ό ν„΄μ–΄λΌμš΄λ“œ λ…Έλ ₯의 초기 긍정적 효과λ₯Ό λ°˜μ˜ν•œ κ²ƒμž…λ‹ˆλ‹€. λŒ€κ·œλͺ¨ μŠ€ν‚¬λ§(Skilling) μ‹œμž₯으둜의 μ „λž΅μ  μ „ν™˜μ€ κ°•λ ₯ν•œ λ§ˆμ§„μ„ λ™λ°˜ν•œ μž₯κΈ° 지속 κ°€λŠ₯ μ„±μž₯의 λ‹€μŒ 단계λ₯Ό μœ„ν•œ λ°œνŒμ„ λ§ˆλ ¨ν–ˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. ν•΄λ‹Ή λΆ„κΈ° λ™μ•ˆ μ €ν¬λŠ” 2026λ…„ 만기 μ „ν™˜μ‚¬μ±„ 900만 λ‹¬λŸ¬λ₯Ό ν• μΈλœ 가격에 μž¬λ§€μž…ν•˜μ—¬ 자본ꡬ쑰 κ°œμ„  μ‘°μΉ˜λ„ λ‹¨ν–‰ν–ˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 4λΆ„κΈ°μ—λŠ” μŠ€ν‚¬λ§ λΆ€λ¬Έμ—μ„œ 1,800만 λ‹¬λŸ¬μ˜ λ§€μΆœμ„ λ‹¬μ„±ν•˜λ©° 두 자릿수 μ„±μž₯λ₯ μ„ κΈ°λ‘ν–ˆλŠ”λ°, μ΄λŠ” μƒλ‹Ήν•œ μ‹œμž₯ κΈ°νšŒμ™€ 저희가 μ²΄κ°ν•˜κ³  μžˆλŠ” λͺ¨λ©˜ν…€μ„ μž…μ¦ν•˜λŠ” κ²ƒμž…λ‹ˆλ‹€.
Academic Services revenue was $55 million as we continue to operate the business with a focus on cash generation. As Dan mentioned earlier, we are testing different pricing and packaging strategies to extend its operational runway. Moving on to expenses. Non-GAAP operating expenses were $44.8 million in the quarter. a reduction of $39.8 million or 47% year-over-year as we maintain fiscal discipline and continue to benefit from the successful execution of our restructuring activities. Our fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA was $13 million, representing a margin of 18%.ν•™μˆ  μ„œλΉ„μŠ€(Academic Services) λ§€μΆœμ€ 5,500만 λ‹¬λŸ¬λ₯Ό κΈ°λ‘ν–ˆμœΌλ©°, ν˜„κΈˆ μ°½μΆœμ— 쀑점을 두고 사업을 μš΄μ˜ν•˜κ³  μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€.

Our adoption of AI, along with our new business structure has enabled us to significantly lower expenses while preserving our ability to grow. We overhauled our cost structure to improve efficiency and create capacity for reinvestment in change skilling. We are on track to reduce total non-GAAP expenses to less than $250 million in 2026 and a 53% decline from 2024. Our strategic investment in AI have allowed us to significantly reduce CapEx without compromising quality. Q4 CapEx was $6 million, down 51% year-over-year. For 2026, we are targeting a further 60% reduction in CapEx with approximately 90% dedicated to our growing Skilling business.AI λ„μž…κ³Ό μƒˆλ‘œμš΄ 사업 ꡬ쑰λ₯Ό 톡해 μ„±μž₯ λŠ₯λ ₯을 μœ μ§€ν•˜λ©΄μ„œλ„ λΉ„μš©μ„ λŒ€ν­ μ ˆκ°ν•  수 μžˆμ—ˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. νš¨μœ¨μ„±μ„ κ°œμ„ ν•˜κ³  λ³€ν™”ν•˜λŠ” μŠ€ν‚¬λ§(Skilling) 사업에 μž¬νˆ¬μžν•  μ—¬λ ₯을 ν™•λ³΄ν•˜κΈ° μœ„ν•΄ λΉ„μš© ꡬ쑰λ₯Ό μ „λ©΄ κ°œνŽΈν–ˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 2026λ…„κΉŒμ§€ 총 non-GAAP λΉ„μš©μ„ 2μ–΅ 5천만 λ‹¬λŸ¬ 미만으둜 쀄일 κ³„νšμ΄λ©°, μ΄λŠ” 2024λ…„ λŒ€λΉ„ 53% κ°μ†Œν•œ μˆ˜μΉ˜μž…λ‹ˆλ‹€.

Free cash flow in the fourth quarter was negative $15 million, which was primarily impacted by $12 million in employee severance payments related to our restructuring activities. In 2026, we expect $18 million in severance-related cash expenditures related to our last 2 restructuring with approximately 80% occurring in the first quarter. Despite these items, we expect to generate meaningful free cash flow in 2026. Looking at the balance sheet. We concluded the quarter with cash and investments of $85 million and a net cash balance of $31 million. Before I move to guidance, I'd like to quickly address the delisting notice we received from the NYSE.4λΆ„κΈ° μž‰μ—¬ν˜„κΈˆνλ¦„μ€ λ§ˆμ΄λ„ˆμŠ€ 1,500만 λ‹¬λŸ¬λ₯Ό κΈ°λ‘ν–ˆμœΌλ©°, μ΄λŠ” 주둜 ꡬ쑰쑰정 ν™œλ™κ³Ό κ΄€λ ¨λœ 1,200만 λ‹¬λŸ¬μ˜ 직원 ν‡΄μ§κΈˆ 지급에 영ν–₯을 λ°›μ•˜μŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 2026λ…„μ—λŠ” 졜근 2μ°¨λ‘€μ˜ ꡬ쑰쑰정과 κ΄€λ ¨ν•˜μ—¬ 1,800만 λ‹¬λŸ¬μ˜ ν‡΄μ§κΈˆ κ΄€λ ¨ ν˜„κΈˆ μ§€μΆœμ΄ μ˜ˆμƒλ˜λ©°, 이 쀑 μ•½ 80%κ°€ 1뢄기에 λ°œμƒν•  κ²ƒμœΌλ‘œ μ˜ˆμƒλ©λ‹ˆλ‹€. μ΄λŸ¬ν•œ ν•­λͺ©λ“€μ—λ„ λΆˆκ΅¬ν•˜κ³ , μš°λ¦¬λŠ” 2026년에 의미 μžˆλŠ” μž‰μ—¬ν˜„κΈˆνλ¦„μ„ μ°½μΆœν•  κ²ƒμœΌλ‘œ κΈ°λŒ€ν•©λ‹ˆλ‹€. λŒ€μ°¨λŒ€μ‘°ν‘œλ₯Ό μ‚΄νŽ΄λ³΄λ©΄, 뢄기말 ν˜„κΈˆ 및 νˆ¬μžμžμ‚°μ€ 8,500만 λ‹¬λŸ¬, μˆœν˜„κΈˆ μž”μ•‘μ€ 3,100만 λ‹¬λŸ¬λ‘œ λ§ˆκ°ν–ˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. κ°€μ΄λ˜μŠ€λ‘œ λ„˜μ–΄κ°€κΈ° 전에, NYSEλ‘œλΆ€ν„° 받은 상μž₯폐지 톡보에 λŒ€ν•΄ κ°„λ‹¨νžˆ λ§μ”€λ“œλ¦¬κ² μŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€.
The notice has no immediate impact on our listing status and we have ample time and multiple avenues available to regain compliance, including a potential reverse stock split. Our primary focus is on strengthening the fundamentals of the business. We believe that executing on our priorities will be the most effective path to restoring compliance and delivering long-term shareholder value. Looking ahead at Q1 guidance. We expect $17.5 million to $18 million of revenue from our Chegg Skilling business.이 ν†΅μ§€λŠ” 우리의 상μž₯ μ§€μœ„μ— 즉각적인 영ν–₯을 λ―ΈμΉ˜μ§€ μ•ŠμœΌλ©°, 잠재적인 주식 병합을 ν¬ν•¨ν•˜μ—¬ κ·œμ • μ€€μˆ˜λ₯Ό νšŒλ³΅ν•  수 μžˆλŠ” μΆ©λΆ„ν•œ μ‹œκ°„κ³Ό λ‹€μ–‘ν•œ 방법이 μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 우리의 μ΅œμš°μ„  κ³Όμ œλŠ” μ‚¬μ—…μ˜ νŽ€λ”λ©˜ν„Έμ„ κ°•ν™”ν•˜λŠ” κ²ƒμž…λ‹ˆλ‹€. μš°λ¦¬λŠ” μš°μ„ μˆœμœ„ 사항듀을 μ‹€ν–‰ν•˜λŠ” 것이 κ·œμ • μ€€μˆ˜λ₯Ό νšŒλ³΅ν•˜κ³  μž₯기적인 μ£Όμ£Ό κ°€μΉ˜λ₯Ό μ œκ³΅ν•˜λŠ” κ°€μž₯ 효과적인 방법이 될 것이라고 λ―ΏμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 1λΆ„κΈ° κ°€μ΄λ˜μŠ€λ₯Ό μ „λ§ν•˜λ©΄, Chegg Skilling μ‚¬μ—…μ—μ„œ 1,750만 λ‹¬λŸ¬μ—μ„œ 1,800만 λ‹¬λŸ¬μ˜ λ§€μΆœμ„ μ˜ˆμƒν•˜κ³  μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€.
We expect double-digit growth for the year and anticipate stronger performance in the second half than in the first driven by continued investment in the business and the addition of new distribution partners. Total revenue between $60 million and $62 million; gross margin to be in the range of 57% to 58%. And adjusted EBITDA between $11 million and $12 million. In 2026, our capital allocation strategy is focused on optimizing free cash flow, strengthening our cash position and eliminating our debt to create a more flexible and resilient balance sheet.μ €ν¬λŠ” μ˜¬ν•΄ 두 자릿수 μ„±μž₯을 μ˜ˆμƒν•˜κ³  있으며, 지속적인 사업 νˆ¬μžμ™€ μ‹ κ·œ μœ ν†΅ νŒŒνŠΈλ„ˆ 좔가에 νž˜μž…μ–΄ μƒλ°˜κΈ°λ³΄λ‹€ ν•˜λ°˜κΈ°μ— λ”μš± κ°•λ ₯ν•œ 싀적을 κΈ°λŒ€ν•˜κ³  μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 총 λ§€μΆœμ€ 6천만 λ‹¬λŸ¬μ—μ„œ 6천2백만 λ‹¬λŸ¬ 사이, 맀좜총이읡λ₯ μ€ 57%μ—μ„œ 58% λ²”μœ„κ°€ 될 κ²ƒμœΌλ‘œ μ „λ§ν•©λ‹ˆλ‹€. 그리고 μ‘°μ • EBITDAλŠ” 1천1백만 λ‹¬λŸ¬μ—μ„œ 1천2백만 λ‹¬λŸ¬ 사이가 될 κ²ƒμž…λ‹ˆλ‹€. 2026λ…„μ—λŠ” μž‰μ—¬ν˜„κΈˆνλ¦„ μ΅œμ ν™”, ν˜„κΈˆ ν¬μ§€μ…˜ κ°•ν™”, 그리고 뢀채 μ œκ±°μ— 쀑점을 λ‘” μžλ³Έλ°°λΆ„ μ „λž΅μ„ 톡해 보닀 μœ μ—°ν•˜κ³  νƒ„νƒ„ν•œ 재무ꡬ쑰λ₯Ό ꡬ좕할 κ³„νšμž…λ‹ˆλ‹€.

We believe we are turning the corner and are on a clear path to our future growth, profitability and increased shareholder value.

Daniel Rosensweig: Executive Chairman, President & CEO Yes. Great questions. I just want to reverse the way we think about it, which is the core business now is Skilling. So the historic business is the academic services business. So let me start with that one, and then I'll talk about the key KPIs that we look at with Skilling. So we're probably about 40% through the quarter on learning business. And it's pretty much where we thought it would be with the exception of the retention continues to be a little bit stronger than we thought. And that's very good for free cash flow generation. So what we know is when Google doesn't block our traffic or when the traffic gets through, that we continue to convert well and retention continues to actually achieve the highest levels that I've seen, not since I've been back, but even before that. So that gives us a runway to be able to reinvent that product, which we have several ideas and we're sort of excited about them of where Chegg Study can go in the future. But in the interim, the price testing -- the key for us is all they do a month in, which is retention. And so far, they're performing actually quite well. So it's too early to declare one way or the other, but we're very pleased with the fact that retention continues to be so high. On the Skilling business, so we used to be a B2C business on whether it was Busuu or whether it was on Chegg Skills, both those businesses over the last 24 months have been converted into B2B businesses. Skills is exclusively B2B and by the end of this year, Busuu be B2B than B2C. And so the key metrics that we're looking at are some of the things that we began to talk about, which is how do we expand the number of distribution partners that we have and we announced one and we expect to announce more over the course of the year, which we're excited about. And then second is how do we continue to expand the curriculum we have to sell more into the businesses or the channels that we already have. And so we'll just be focused on a number of channels and expanding curriculum. And over time, we'll talk about sort of the average volume of a transaction. It's too early to do that. But at the moment, it's more channels of distribution and more curriculum to be able to sell into the existing and to the new channels. And both of those things are off to a slightly faster start than I would have expected only 9 weeks back on the job.

Ryan MacDonald: Needham & Company, LLC, Research Division Dan, maybe to ask you about the state of the skilling market. Obviously, a lot of change that's about to happen with this Coursera, Udemy merger, obviously, 2 of the biggest players in the space. And so as I think about Chegg Skilling and sort of how you gain share within the marketplace in B2B, you talk about expanding the number of distribution partners expanding the curriculum you have. What opportunities do you think present themselves from this impending merger of areas where you can look to either take mind share from a distribution partner or expand content by bringing in maybe new content creators as this transition occurs over the next year or so?**Ryan MacDonald:** λŒ„, μŠ€ν‚¬λ§ μ‹œμž₯의 ν˜„ν™©μ— λŒ€ν•΄ μ—¬μ­€λ³΄κ² μŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. λΆ„λͺ…νžˆ Coursera와 Udemy ν•©λ³‘μœΌλ‘œ λ§Žμ€ λ³€ν™”κ°€ 일어날 κ²ƒμœΌλ‘œ λ³΄μ΄λŠ”λ°, 이 두 νšŒμ‚¬λŠ” 이 λΆ„μ•Όμ—μ„œ κ°€μž₯ 큰 ν”Œλ ˆμ΄μ–΄λ“€μ΄μ£ . κ·Έλž˜μ„œ Chegg Skillingκ³Ό B2B μ‹œμž₯μ—μ„œ μ μœ μœ¨μ„ ν™•λ³΄ν•˜λŠ” 방법에 λŒ€ν•΄ 생각해보면, μœ ν†΅ νŒŒνŠΈλ„ˆ 수 ν™•λŒ€μ™€ 컀리큘럼 ν™•μž₯에 λŒ€ν•΄ λ§μ”€ν•˜μ…¨λŠ”λ°μš”. 이번 ν•©λ³‘μœΌλ‘œ 인해 μ–΄λ–€ κΈ°νšŒλ“€μ΄ 생길 κ²ƒμœΌλ‘œ λ³΄μ‹œλ‚˜μš”? μœ ν†΅ νŒŒνŠΈλ„ˆλ‘œλΆ€ν„° λ§ˆμΈλ“œ μ…°μ–΄λ₯Ό κ°€μ Έμ˜€κ±°λ‚˜, μ•žμœΌλ‘œ 1λ…„ 정도 이 μ „ν™˜ κ³Όμ •μ—μ„œ μƒˆλ‘œμš΄ μ½˜ν…μΈ  크리에이터듀을 μ˜μž…ν•΄μ„œ μ½˜ν…μΈ λ₯Ό ν™•μž₯ν•  수 μžˆλŠ” λΆ€λΆ„ 같은 것듀 λ§μž…λ‹ˆλ‹€.
Daniel Rosensweig: Executive Chairman, President & CEO Yes, it's a very interesting question, and that merger is sort of fascinating in terms of how the 2 companies are performing. But the significant difference is they are marketplaces for other people's content mostly and 1 has B -- they both have a version of B2B and B2C. And so rather than looking at how do we take share, you can actually think the other way, which is, can we work with them because our content continues to outperform the places we put it. And the definition of outperform us is not just conversion, but completion renewal with those companies that are inside those channels. And we are -- and we mentioned it in the prepared remarks that we continue to hear from the partners that we have that we continue to outperform the other partners in the channel. And it's because we have a basis for actually teaching that we've been able to apply over into this world. So we don't see Coursera and Udemy as competitors. We actually see them as potential partners to work with going forward. And our view is if we continue -- if you look at how value gets created, we think it's now the person that's creating the content and can actually serve the student, educate the student and that those businesses are going to be more higher margin businesses. So then just the channels of distribution. So we see ourselves looking to expand, we don't have to take share from them. We can take share potentially by working with them by also providing our content through their channels and other channels. So it's different than what we would have looked at before.**Daniel Rosensweig:** λ„€, 맀우 ν₯미둜운 μ§ˆλ¬Έμž…λ‹ˆλ‹€. κ·Έ 합병은 두 νšŒμ‚¬κ°€ μ–΄λ–»κ²Œ μ„±κ³Όλ₯Ό λ‚΄κ³  μžˆλŠ”μ§€ μΈ‘λ©΄μ—μ„œ μƒλ‹Ήνžˆ μ£Όλͺ©ν•  λ§Œν•©λ‹ˆλ‹€. ν•˜μ§€λ§Œ μ€‘μš”ν•œ 차이점은 그듀은 주둜 타사 μ½˜ν…μΈ λ₯Ό μœ„ν•œ λ§ˆμΌ“ν”Œλ ˆμ΄μŠ€λΌλŠ” 것이고, B2B와 B2C 버전을 λͺ¨λ‘ λ³΄μœ ν•˜κ³  μžˆλ‹€λŠ” μ μž…λ‹ˆλ‹€. κ·Έλž˜μ„œ μš°λ¦¬κ°€ μ–΄λ–»κ²Œ μ‹œμž₯ μ μœ μœ¨μ„ κ°€μ Έμ˜¬ 것인가λ₯Ό κ³ λ―Όν•˜κΈ°λ³΄λ‹€λŠ”, 였히렀 λ°˜λŒ€λ‘œ 생각해볼 수 μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. μš°λ¦¬κ°€ κ·Έλ“€κ³Ό ν˜‘λ ₯ν•  수 μžˆμ§€ μ•Šμ„κΉŒ ν•˜λŠ” 것이죠. μ™œλƒν•˜λ©΄ 우리 μ½˜ν…μΈ λŠ” μš°λ¦¬κ°€ λ°°μΉ˜ν•˜λŠ” κ³³μ—μ„œ μ§€μ†μ μœΌλ‘œ μš°μˆ˜ν•œ μ„±κ³Όλ₯Ό λ‚΄κ³  있기 λ•Œλ¬Έμž…λ‹ˆλ‹€. μ—¬κΈ°μ„œ μš°μˆ˜ν•œ μ„±κ³ΌλΌλŠ” 것은 λ‹¨μˆœνžˆ μ „ν™˜μœ¨λ§Œμ„ μ˜λ―Έν•˜λŠ” 것이 μ•„λ‹ˆλΌ, ν•΄λ‹Ή 채널 내에 μžˆλŠ” κΈ°μ—…λ“€μ˜ μ™„λ£Œμœ¨κ³Ό κ°±μ‹ μœ¨κΉŒμ§€ ν¬ν•¨ν•˜λŠ” κ°œλ…μž…λ‹ˆλ‹€. μ€€λΉ„λœ λ°œμ–Έμ—μ„œλ„ μ–ΈκΈ‰ν–ˆλ“―μ΄, 저희와 ν˜‘λ ₯ν•˜κ³  μžˆλŠ” νŒŒνŠΈλ„ˆλ“€λ‘œλΆ€ν„° μ§€μ†μ μœΌλ‘œ λ“£λŠ” 이야기가 μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 저희가 채널 λ‚΄ λ‹€λ₯Έ νŒŒνŠΈλ„ˆλ“€λ³΄λ‹€ 더 μš°μˆ˜ν•œ μ„±κ³Όλ₯Ό λ‚΄κ³  μžˆλ‹€λŠ” κ²ƒμž…λ‹ˆλ‹€. μ΄λŠ” 저희가 μ‹€μ œλ‘œ κ΅μœ‘ν•  수 μžˆλŠ” κΈ°λ°˜μ„ κ°–μΆ”κ³  있고, 이λ₯Ό 이 뢄야에 μ μš©ν•  수 μžˆμ—ˆκΈ° λ•Œλ¬Έμž…λ‹ˆλ‹€. κ·Έλž˜μ„œ μ €ν¬λŠ” Courseraλ‚˜ Udemyλ₯Ό 경쟁자둜 보지 μ•ŠμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 였히렀 μ•žμœΌλ‘œ ν˜‘λ ₯ν•  수 μžˆλŠ” 잠재적 νŒŒνŠΈλ„ˆλ‘œ 보고 μžˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€.

Daniel Rosensweig: Executive Chairman, President & CEO Absolutely, yes. So when we first started this several years ago, I mean we went from 0 to the size that we plan to be this year in just 3.5 years. So we're seeing actually real good growth. And this will be the first time that we've expanded beyond our partnership with Gill to add new partners. So where we see double-digit growth ahead for the next several years because we're really just at the beginning of this thing, but when you ask what the demand is for the original deals that we did were for frontline workers who needed just basic technology skills. Now the demand is shipping rapidly towards how do we get sure that every single employee, not just frontline workers, but workers across the board actually begin to understand how to utilize AI. So I -- a different way to think about it is rather than say what should I build, -- everybody needs to learn the tools that I can use to build. And that's the role that we're playing. And we think that's a very big growth market, which is why we're sort of accelerating the kinds of classes that we're teaching. And obviously, the relationship that we now announced with Wealth is also a very big opportunity going forward. It's very early to be able to size it. But this is the first time Chegg is going to be offering courses through a partner where our courses can count towards a degree. And so you can imagine demand from students about wanting to have courses that they can take and also contribute to their college degree where they can put on their resume is that they actually understand how to use the tools around AI. And so these are all really fun and interesting and high-growth areas for us.**Daniel Rosensweig:** λ„€, λ¬Όλ‘ μž…λ‹ˆλ‹€. λͺ‡ λ…„ μ „ 처음 μ‹œμž‘ν–ˆμ„ λ•Œλ₯Ό 보면, μš°λ¦¬λŠ” 뢈과 3λ…„ 반 λ§Œμ— μ œλ‘œμ—μ„œ μ˜¬ν•΄ κ³„νšν•œ 규λͺ¨κΉŒμ§€ μ„±μž₯ν–ˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. μ‹€μ œλ‘œ 맀우 쒋은 μ„±μž₯μ„Έλ₯Ό 보이고 μžˆλŠ” 것이죠. 그리고 μ˜¬ν•΄λŠ” Gill과의 νŒŒνŠΈλ„ˆμ‹­μ„ λ„˜μ–΄ μƒˆλ‘œμš΄ νŒŒνŠΈλ„ˆλ“€μ„ μΆ”κ°€ν•˜λŠ” 첫 ν•΄κ°€ 될 κ²ƒμž…λ‹ˆλ‹€. μ•žμœΌλ‘œ μˆ˜λ…„κ°„ 두 자릿수 μ„±μž₯을 μ˜ˆμƒν•˜κ³  μžˆλŠ”λ°, 사싀 μš°λ¦¬λŠ” 이제 막 μ‹œμž‘ 단계에 있기 λ•Œλ¬Έμž…λ‹ˆλ‹€.
