What the release tells us – and what it doesn’t say

Item	What the announcement says	What it does not say (i.e., the guidance the question is looking for)
Current AI‑ARR performance	AI‑ARR grew 24 % in the first quarter and now accounts for about 50 % of total ARR.	No specific forecast for the next quarter, the full fiscal year, or any multi‑year horizon.
Impact on earnings	The press release highlights “meaningful, tangible AI business outcomes” for customers and notes that the AI‑driven growth is a key part of the company’s overall performance.	No quantitative estimate of how AI‑ARR will affect revenue growth, profit margins, EPS, or any other earnings metric.
Future guidance	The company “celebrated its AI leadership” and “continues to invest in AI‑driven CX automation,” but no numeric or percentage‑based forward guidance was included.	No explicit guidance on future AI‑ARR growth rates (e.g., “we expect AI‑ARR to grow X % YoY”) or impact on earnings (e.g., “AI‑ARR is expected to contribute $Y million to FY‑2025 earnings”).

Bottom‑line answer

The company has not provided any explicit guidance regarding future AI ARR growth or its specific impact on earnings in the press‑release you provided.

All that can be gleaned from the announcement is that:

AI ARR is growing fast (24 % Q1 growth) and now represents roughly half of total ARR.
Management is highlighting AI as a strategic growth driver, but it stopped short of giving quantitative targets for the next quarter, the upcoming fiscal year, or any earnings‐related projections tied to AI‑ARR.

If you need the exact forward‑looking numbers (e.g., projected AI‑ARR growth percentages, expected contribution to EBITDA, EPS guidance, or guidance on the proportion of AI‑ARR in future periods), you will need to look for a more detailed earnings release, an investor‑presentation deck, or a conference‑call transcript where Verint’s management addresses those specifics. As it stands, the provided news snippet does not contain that guidance.
