Revenue and Financial Performance:
- SoundThinking's Q4 revenue decreased by 10% year-over-year to $23.4 million, while full year 2024 revenue grew by 10% to a record $102 million.
- The decline in Q4 was primarily due to a $3.5 million delay in contract renewals with the New York City Police Department (NYPD), while full-year growth was driven by strong demand for public safety and security solutions.

ShotSpotter Expansion and International Growth:
- ShotSpotter went live in 20 new cities and 5 new universities in 2024, recognizing 24 expansions and covering 126 miles.
- International sales momentum was evident with new city captures in Niterói, Brazil, Nelson Mandela Bay, South Africa, and an expansion in Montevideo, Uruguay.

NYPD Contract Renewal:
- SoundThinking successfully executed a three-year contract renewal of approximately $21.9 million with NYPD, securing the ShotSpotter service through December 2027.
- This renewal extends the company's long-term partnership with NYPD, highlighting the value of its ShotSpotter services at scale.

SafePointe and ResourceRouter Growth:
- The next-generation SafePointe system secured pilot wins with two hospital chains, with potential multimillion dollar ACV contracts.
- The ResourceRouter tool saw a 100% ASP growth from 2023 to 2024, indicating strong market fit and demand.

2025 Revenue Guidance and Pipeline:
- SoundThinking increased its full year 2025 revenue guidance to $111 million to $113 million, representing approximately 10% year-over-year growth.
- This optimism is supported by a strong pipeline, with approximately $50 million in 2025 qualified ACV across the SafetySmart platform.
