PR Newswire (US) SAN FRANCISCO, June 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Docusign, Inc. (NASDAQ: DOCU) today announced results for its fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2026. Prepared remarks and the news release with the financial results will be accessible on Docusign's website at investor.docusign.com prior to its webcast. "In Q1, we saw continued growing demand for Docusign's AI-native IAM platform with 40,000 customers investing in our rapidly expanding roadmap," said Allan Thygesen, CEO of Docusign. "We delivered significant innovation this quarter while driving strong financial results through durable revenue growth, substantial free cash flow, and record share buybacks."First Quarter Financial HighlightsRevenue was $830.2 million, a 9% year-over-year increase including approximately 1.6% positive impact from foreign exchange rates.Intelligent Agreement Management ("IAM") represented 12.6% of our total Annual Recurring Revenue ("ARR") as of April 30, 2026, compared to 10.8% of our total ARR as of January 31, 2026.GAAP gross margin was 79.4% for both periods. Non-GAAP gross margin was 81.5% compared to 82.3% in the same period last year.GAAP net income per basic share was $0.40 on 195 million shares outstanding compared to $0.35 on 203 million shares outstanding in the same period last year.GAAP net income per diluted share was $0.40 on 196 million shares outstanding compared to $0.34 on 213 million shares outstanding in the same period last year.Non-GAAP net income per diluted share was $1.09 on 196 million shares outstanding compared to $0.90 on 213 million shares outstanding in the same period last year.Net cash provided by operating activities was $321.7 million compared to $251.4 million in the same period last year.Free cash flow was $289.4 million compared to $227.8 million in the same period last year.Cash, cash equivalents, and investments were $1.0 billion at the end of the quarter.Repurchases of common stock were $317.5 million compared to $183.4 million in the same period last year.A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures has been provided in the tables included in this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Key Metrics."Key Business Highlights AI-Powered Intelligent Agreement Management ("IAM") announcements: In May at our annual Momentum conference, Docusign announced new IAM capabilities powered by Iris, our agreement AI engine:Iris assistant and agents: Iris is Docusign's AI engine for agreements, which helps teams work smarter, faster, and trigger actions using natural language. Customers can now:Move faster through reviews: Agents can check agreements against company standards, suggest edits, and automatically request the right approvals in minutes.Keep work moving automatically: Agents can monitor contracts in the background and flag risks, track obligations, and trigger next steps without manual follow-up.Build agents for specific workflows: With Docusign Agent Studio, teams can create and deploy custom agents tailored to how they manage deals, renewals, approvals, and more.Docusign IAM platform ecosystem: Docusign connects agreement work across the systems and teams that run the business. Instead of contracts living in silos, Docusign brings them into the tools people already use:AI where teams work: Through our open platform and Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, Docusign connects with leading frontier models like Anthropic Claude, Gemini, and OpenAI ChatGPT – so teams can create, review, and manage agreements using natural language within the tools they already use.Deep integrations across business systems: Docusign integrates with core applications like Coupa, Microsoft Copilot, Salesforce, SAP, and Slack – so agreement workflows happen seamlessly across systems teams use every day, from triggering actions to surfacing completed agreements and the insights they contain.A connected legal AI ecosystem: Docusign is also partnering with leading legal AI platforms, including Harvey, Legora, and CoCounsel by Thomson Reuters. These integrations will bring legal research, document analysis, and contract review directly into agreement workflows across sales, procurement, HR, and finance.Docusign IAM platform end-to-end workflows:IAM for HR: Employee agreements span the entire lifecycle, from hiring to role changes, but the work behind them is often fragmented and manual. IAM for HR spans the often manual HR lifecycle from hiring to role changes. Mobile I-9 verification simplifies compliance, while integrations with HCM platforms help HR teams move faster and improve the employee experience from day one onward.IAM for Sales: IAM for Sales brings the full agreement lifecycle directly into CRMs like HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and Salesforce. New CRM-embedded experiences for Agreement Desk, Agreement Prep, and Agreement Manager keep workflows, collaboration, and signed agreements connected in one place.Instant Form Creation for Customer Experience:  AI-powered Web Forms transform static documents into interactive, shareable forms in seconds, so people can complete them quickly without manual re-entry.Executive Appointment: Docusign announced Graham Sheldon as its incoming Chief Product Officer. Most recently, Sheldon served as Chief Product Officer at UiPath Inc., a leading enterprise-grade agentic automation platform. Before that, Sheldon spent more than 20 years at Microsoft Corp., including as Corporate Vice President of Product for Microsoft Teams.GuidanceThe company currently expects the following guidance:(in millions, except percentages)Three Months Ended

[1] Excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates on year-over-year guided revenue growth, revenue guidance range would be approximately 1.4% points lower for the quarter ending July 31, 2026 and 1.3% points lower for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2027.A reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to corresponding GAAP guidance measures is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, expenses that may be incurred in the future. Stock-based compensation-related charges, including employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions, are impacted by many factors, including the timing of employee stock transactions, the future fair market value of our common stock, and our future hiring and retention needs, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. We have provided a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the financial statement tables for our historical non-GAAP financial results included in this release.Webcast Conference Call InformationThe company will host a conference call on June 4, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. PDT (5:00 p.m. EDT) to discuss its financial results. A live webcast of the event will be available on the Docusign Investor Relations website at investor.docusign.com. Prepared remarks and the news release with the financial results will also be accessible on Docusign's website prior to the webcast. A live dial-in will be available domestically at 877-407-0784 or internationally at 201-689-8560. A replay will be available domestically at 844-512-2921 or internationally at 412-317-6671 until midnight (EDT) June 18, 2026 using the passcode 13760337.About DocusignDocusign brings agreements to life.

The forward-looking statements made in this press release relate only to events as of the date on which such statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date of this press release or to conform such statements to actual results or revised expectations, except as required by law.Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Key MetricsTo supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, as described below, to understand and evaluate our core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures, which may be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies, are presented to enhance investors' overall understanding of our financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about our financial performance, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to important metrics used by our management for financial and operational decision-making. We present these non-GAAP measures to assist investors in seeing our financial performance using a management view, and because we believe that these measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our core financial performance over multiple periods with other companies in our industry. However, these non-GAAP measures are not intended to be considered in isolation from, a substitute for, or superior to our GAAP results.Non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share: We define these non-GAAP financial measures as the respective GAAP measures, excluding expenses related to stock-based compensation, employer payroll tax on employee stock transactions, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, and, as applicable, other special items. The amount of employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions is dependent on our stock price and other factors that are beyond our control and do not correlate to the operation of the business. When evaluating the performance of our business and making operating plans, we do not consider these items (for example, when considering the impact of equity award grants, we place a greater emphasis on overall stockholder dilution rather than the accounting charges associated with such grants). We believe it is useful to exclude these expenses in order to better understand the long-term performance of our core business and to facilitate comparison of our results to those of peer companies and over multiple periods. In addition to these exclusions, we subtract an assumed provision for income taxes to calculate non-GAAP net income. We utilize a fixed long-term projected tax rate in our computation of the non-GAAP income tax provision to provide better consistency across the reporting periods. For the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, we have determined the projected non-GAAP tax rate to be 21% and 20%, respectively.Free cash flow: We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. We believe free cash flow is an important liquidity measure of the cash that is available (if any), after purchases of property and equipment, for operational expenses, investment in our business and to make acquisitions. Free cash flow is useful to investors as a liquidity measure because it measures our ability to generate or use cash in excess of our capital investments in property and equipment. Once our business needs and obligations are met, cash can be used to maintain a strong balance sheet and invest in future growth.Annual Recurring Revenue: We calculate ARR as the annualized value of active customer contracts as of the measurement date. This calculation assumes that any contract expiring within the next 12 months renews on its existing terms, and excludes non-recurring revenue streams recognized at a point in time. When evaluating ARR on a product basis for contracts spanning multiple product lines, we allocate the support contract value to each product offering based on its proportional share of the total contract value. To annualize contracts, we divide the total committed contract value by the number of months in the subscription term and multiply by twelve. For international contracts denominated in foreign currencies, ARR is translated into U.S. dollars using a fixed exchange rate set at the beginning of each fiscal year. We adjust previously reported ARR annually to reflect these exchange rate changes for comparative purposes. We believe ARR measures our business performance and serves as a leading indicator of future revenue growth. We report total ARR annually at the end of the fiscal year. Because quarterly net new ARR represents only a fraction of our overall book of business, it is subject to timing volatility and can be highly volatile on a year-over-year basis. Because the objective of ARR is to evaluate the long-term growth of our business, these quarterly timing fluctuations can detract from the insight and usefulness of ARR. ARR is an operating metric and should be viewed independently of revenue, deferred revenue, and remaining performance obligations; it does not represent revenue under U.S. GAAP on an annual basis.For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, please see "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS(Unaudited)

Docusign Brings Trusted Agreement Intelligence and Workflows into ChatGPT and CodexJune 2, 2026 2:30 PM
PR Newswire (US) The Docusign app for OpenAI is now available, enabling organizations to create, analyze, and act on agreements directly within ChatGPT and CodexSAN FRANCISCO, June 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Docusign (Nasdaq: DOCU) today announced that the Docusign app is available in ChatGPT and Codex. The app brings the Docusign Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) platform directly into OpenAI's products, enabling organizations to securely create, analyze, manage, and take action on agreements using natural language prompts. Every business runs on agreements from sales contracts and vendor agreements to employee onboarding documents and compliance forms. Agreements contain some of the most important data in every organization: what was sold, what was promised, when commitments renew, and what actions need to happen next. Yet that information is often trapped in disconnected systems and manual workflows, slowing decision-making and creating operational friction.With the Docusign app, teams can securely access trusted agreement data, insights, and workflows directly within ChatGPT and Codex. Users can ask questions, generate agreements, and take action, while Docusign-powered workflows and agents help move work forward behind the scenes."Contracts sit at the center of how businesses sell, operate, and grow," said Allan Thygesen, CEO of Docusign. "With our new Docusign app, we're connecting trusted agreement workflows directly into the AI tools that teams use today. Together with OpenAI, we're helping teams across the enterprise move faster with greater visibility and confidence across the business."Instead of searching across systems or manually reviewing documents, users can simply ask:"Show me customer contracts that are up for renewal in the next 90 days, and draft outreach emails for each account.""Create a vendor NDA, route it for legal approval, and notify me when it's ready to send.""Summarize the key obligations in this supplier agreement and identify any upcoming deadlines.""Show me contracts awaiting my approval and recommend which ones need attention first."The Docusign app supports a broad range of workflows across the enterprise:Legal can quickly review agreements, surface key clauses and obligations, and get faster access to contract insights.Sales can generate agreements, track renewals, and close deals faster.Procurement can identify upcoming vendor renewals, compare supplier agreements, and monitor approval workflows.HR can streamline onboarding and employee documentation processes with easier access to agreement information.Finance can gain visibility into contractual commitments, obligations, and key business terms.The Docusign app is powered by Docusign Iris, the AI engine behind Docusign's assistant and agents. Together, they help organizations create, commit to, and manage agreements while enabling users to surface insights, automate tasks, and take action across the agreement lifecycle.

Docusign Appoints Graham Sheldon as Chief Product Officer to Accelerate Intelligent Agreement Management VisionJune 2, 2026 11:00 AM
PR Newswire (US) Microsoft veteran and leader of UiPath's agentic transformation joins Docusign to drive the next era of AI-powered agreement intelligenceSAN FRANCISCO, June 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Docusign (NASDAQ: DOCU), the leading Intelligent Agreement Management platform, today announced the appointment of Graham Sheldon as Chief Product Officer. In this role, Sheldon will lead product, design, and user research, accelerating Docusign's goal to transform how the world's enterprises create, commit to, and manage agreements — turning critical business insights into decisive action. Sheldon will start on July 6. Sheldon's appointment comes at a pivotal moment for Docusign as the company continues to define and lead the Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) category. With more than 1.8 million customers, over a billion users, and a vast ecosystem of trusted partners and integrations — including its recently launched MCP server connectors with Anthropic Claude, Gemini, and OpenAI ChatGPT — Docusign is uniquely positioned as the only platform where functions across the enterprise come together to manage the full agreement lifecycle, from creation and negotiation to execution and analysis."Graham is exactly the kind of leader who can take what we've built and propel it into its next chapter," said Allan Thygesen, Chief Executive Officer of Docusign. "Our customers trust us with their most critical business processes. Graham's proven ability to build category-defining platforms at massive scale — and his deep expertise in AI and agentic automation — makes him the ideal person to lead our product vision forward."Sheldon brings more than two decades of experience building transformative products that reshape how people and organizations work. Most recently, he served as Chief Product Officer at UiPath, where he led the company's evolution from the world's leading robotic process automation vendor into the platform for agentic automation and business orchestration. Under his leadership, UiPath launched the industry's first enterprise-grade agentic automation platform — trusted by more than 10,000 organizations worldwide. UiPath was named a TIME Best Invention under his product leadership in both 2023 and 2025.Prior to UiPath, Sheldon spent more than twenty years at Microsoft, where he is perhaps best known for taking Microsoft Teams from inception to 300 million users as Corporate Vice President of Product — making it the fastest-growing business application in the company's history. He also served as a technical advisor to CEO Satya Nadella and led product and engineering initiatives across Dynamics, Bing, and Office, giving him a rare, enterprise-wide perspective on how technology transforms organizations at scale."Docusign has achieved something rare in the technology industry: the deep, lasting trust of the world's largest enterprises," Sheldon said. "Business runs on agreements. Every promise made, every deal struck, every enterprise built rests on them. Yet that work is often scattered across disconnected tools, draining time, money, and attention. Docusign is in a unique position to do this at scale and with the trust our customers expect. I'm excited to lead the next chapter of Intelligent Agreement Management."Sheldon's appointment reinforces Docusign's commitment to innovation at the intersection of AI, agentic automation, and enterprise workflows. Agreements power every organization, and Docusign IAM is the only platform with the total context of a company's agreement history, relationships, and workflows.

"Dmitri played a pivotal role in transforming and executing on Docusign's product strategy in his tenure as Chief Product Officer," said Thygesen. "I am personally grateful for his dedication and leadership. The foundation he built will continue to benefit our customers for years to come."About Docusign

Docusign Unveils AI Assistant and Agents to Power the Next Era of Agreement WorkMay 21, 2026 8:00 AM
PR Newswire (US) The Intelligent Agreement Management platform helps teams close deals, hire faster, and reduce risk by connecting contract workflows across the businessNEW YORK, May 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Docusign (NASDAQ: DOCU) today at its Momentum conference announced new AI-powered capabilities designed to reimagine how agreements get done. Every sale, hire, and partnership depends on a contract, yet the work behind them is often slow, manual, and fragmented across emails and systems. With its Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) platform, Docusign brings that process together, and now, with a new AI assistant and agents, helps teams move from draft to execution faster and with less effort. "Every business runs on agreements, but until now, they've been static records of work," said Allan Thygesen, CEO of Docusign. "Docusign is the only platform with the full context of your agreement history and relationships, and that's what allows us to turn agreements into something more powerful: systems that can guide business decisions and move work forward."From review to real progress: introducing Iris assistant and agents
At the center of these updates is Iris, Docusign's AI engine for agreements. Iris helps teams work smarter and faster – allowing them to ask questions, surface key terms and obligations, and take action using natural language. With agents, customers can:Move faster through reviews: Agents can check agreements against company standards, suggest edits, and automatically request the right approvals in minutes.Keep work moving automatically: Agents can monitor contracts in the background and flag risks, track obligations, and trigger next steps without manual follow-up.Build agents for your workflows: With Agent Studio, teams can create and deploy custom agents tailored to how they manage deals, renewals, approvals, and more.The open and connected Docusign IAM platform
Docusign connects agreement work across the systems and teams that run the business. Instead of contracts living in silos, Docusign brings them into the tools people already use:AI where teams work: Through its open platform and Model Context Protocol (MCP), Docusign connects with leading frontier models like Anthropic Claude, Gemini, and OpenAI ChatGPT – so teams can create, review, and manage agreements using natural language within the tools they already use.Deep integrations across business systems: Docusign integrates with core applications like Coupa, Microsoft Copilot, Salesforce, SAP, and Slack – so agreement workflows happen seamlessly across systems teams use every day, from triggering actions to surfacing completed agreements and the insights they contain.A connected legal AI ecosystem: Docusign is also partnering with leading legal AI platforms, including Harvey, Legora, and CoCounsel by Thomson Reuters. These integrations will bring legal research, document analysis, and contract review directly into agreement workflows across sales, procurement, HR, and finance.Docusign supporting more teams across the businessIAM for HR: Employee agreements span the entire lifecycle, from hiring to role changes, but the work behind them is often fragmented and manual. IAM for HR brings that process together by capturing key information automatically, reducing repetitive tasks, and keeping systems in sync. Mobile I-9 verification simplifies compliance, while integrations with HCM platforms help HR teams move faster and improve the employee experience from day one onward.IAM for Sales: Sales teams spend too much time chasing approvals, re-entering data, and managing contracts across disconnected systems. IAM for Sales brings the full agreement lifecycle directly into CRMs like HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and Salesforce. Sellers can generate agreements, route approvals, track negotiations, and manage renewals without leaving the tools they already use. New CRM-embedded experiences for Agreement Desk, Agreement Prep, and Agreement Manager keep workflows, collaboration, and signed agreements connected in one place. Meanwhile, Iris-powered insights surface key terms, obligations, and renewal dates – giving teams the visibility and control they need to close deals faster.Instant Form Creation for Customer Experience: Turning a PDF form into a delightful, digital experience shouldn't take extra work. AI-powered Web Forms transform static documents into interactive, shareable forms in seconds, so people can complete them quickly without manual re-entry. Whether it's a patient checking in before an appointment or a customer applying for a new account, information flows directly into system workflows, helping teams move faster and avoid delays.Proven business impact for real teams
The Docusign IAM platform is already delivering measurable results for approximately 40,000 global customers. A recent report from Deloitte* found that organizations using AI-driven workflows with an end-to-end agreement platform see nearly 30% higher ROI compared to those without. Here's what businesses are saying:The Estée Lauder Companies Inc. – "By centralizing Docusign into a single enterprise platform, we transformed this process into a streamlined, governed solution, delivering significant cost savings while also improving visibility, user experience, and operational efficiency," said Joe DeSimone, Technical Executive Director: HR, Finance, and Corporate functions.Thrive Market – "Docusign streamlined our legal operation. Contracts close faster, teams track renewals without chasing them down, and everyone finds what they need in one place," said Wade Johnson, Associate General Counsel.Kindsight – "Kindsight's adoption of Docusign IAM for Sales has been a game-changer for our operations, enabling our IT team to concentrate on strategic priorities while ensuring smooth, fully digitized agreement workflows that optimize processes and boost efficiency across the board," said Kris O'Brien, Director of Information Technology.Payworks – "At Payworks, delivering a consistent, high-quality client experience is core to our success, reflected in our 98% client retention and 55+ NPS. Through our partnership with Docusign, we're transforming contract and customer onboarding with embedded, automated workflows—driving greater speed, consistency, and a better overall client experience," said Maureen Kinnear, Chief Technology OfficerProduct Availability

Docusign Announces Agentic Contract Workflows for In-House Legal TeamsMay 11, 2026 11:00 AM
PR Newswire (US) Docusign agents triage, review, and move agreements forward across its Intelligent Agreement Management platform, solving business problems in the way point products cannot SAN FRANCISCO, May 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Docusign (NASDAQ: DOCU) today announced a new set of AI-powered capabilities and strategic partnerships designed to help in-house legal teams drive progress for their companies while enjoying cutting edge AI-based legal tools. With the introduction of a contract assistant and agents, Docusign is expanding its Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) platform — the only platform with total context of your agreement history and relationships — to serve as the system of action for legal professionals and the teams they support. Every business runs on agreements, but in many organizations that work is still scattered across emails, PDFs, and disconnected tools. As a result, contract data is locked inside static documents, disconnected from where work happens. Legal teams are forced to manually search for insights inside contracts and painfully coordinate next steps across teams like sales, procurement, HR, and finance.Docusign IAM brings the entire agreement lifecycle into one platform – from creation and approvals to negotiation, execution, and management – transforming agreements into strategic assets that drive business decisions. With agents grounded in real agreement context, teams can analyze, redline, and take action, whether through a chat experience or automation running in the background."Legal teams aren't just reviewing contracts, they're helping businesses move forward," said Allan Thygesen, CEO of Docusign. "What Docusign brings to legal AI is dynamic context across agreements, combined with intelligent workflows, that know how to act on that context. That's what allows teams to work faster, reduce risk, and focus on more strategic work."Docusign Iris assistant and agents for end-to-end agreement workflows
With a new assistant and agents powered by Iris, Docusign's agreement-tuned AI engine, businesses can now move from insight to execution. The agents can triage, review, and move agreements to closing – using the full context of past negotiations, accepted terms, and company policies to recommend and take the next steps across the workflow. Legal teams will be able to:Analyze, redline, and collaborate on agreements through an intelligent, context-aware conversational AI experience that grounds answers with citations.Use agents to automate agreement processes by invoking them from chat or deploying them to run autonomously in the background 24/7.Leverage an agentic engine grounded in real agreement context including past negotiations, positions, and company policies.Build and test agents for agreement automation and standardization in a new custom workspace – Agent Studio.Automate end-to-end agreement workflows while maintaining human oversight and control where it's needed.Agreements are no longer static records. They actively move work forward across the business. A recent report from Deloitte* found that organizations using agentic workflows with an end-to-end agreement platform are seeing nearly 30% higher ROI than those that do not.A connected legal AI ecosystem
Docusign is also partnering with legal AI platforms with deep domain expertise, including Harvey, Legora, and CoCounsel Legal by Thomson Reuters. Legal teams rely on specialized tools, but increasingly need those tools to more seamlessly connect with contracting workflows across sales, procurement, HR, and finance. Docusign IAM's open platform makes this possible, bringing legal work into one connected agreement system – by integrating legal research, document analysis, and contract review into agreement workflows and business processes.As an open platform, Docusign extends its capabilities across the enterprise through MCP – allowing leading frontier LLMs such as Anthropic Claude and OpenAI ChatGPT, and leading business applications like Microsoft Copilot, Salesforce, and Slack – to securely connect to Docusign services and manage contracts within the tools teams already use.Modern agreement management for how legal teams work
Legal teams today expect to ask questions, get clear answers, and take action in one place, but most AI tools still sit outside the systems where agreements are created and managed. Docusign IAM closes the gap by embedding AI and agents directly into agreement workflows in a single, end-to-end platform. This makes it possible for legal teams to review, negotiate, and move agreements forward in minutes, not hours, while automatically keeping their business partners updated on progress. As Docusign evolves from e-signature to a system of record, and now to a system of action, IAM gives organizations the speed, consistency, and control to execute agreements across the entire business.Docusign's new Iris assistant and agents are coming soon.

Docusign and Legora Partner to Deliver Connected AI Workflows Across the Contract LifecycleMay 11, 2026 11:05 AM
PR Newswire (US) New integration brings together Legora's collaborative AI and Docusign's end-to-end agreement workflows for in-house legal teams    SAN FRANCISCO, May 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Docusign (Nasdaq: DOCU) and Legora today announced a strategic partnership to integrate Legora's collaborative AI platform for legal work with the Docusign Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) platform. The partnership connects AI-powered research, review, and drafting in Legora with Docusign's agreement workflows and agents, enabling in-house legal teams to move from first draft to completed contract within a single, connected experience across the business. Docusign serves as the system of action for contracts that connects legal teams with sales, procurement, HR, and finance; Legora acts as the collaborative AI workspace where legal teams research, review, and draft the work that flows through Docusign. Together, the two platforms meet legal teams where they work, enabling them to achieve better business and legal outcomes during contractual negotiations.The integration will remove friction at a specific point in the agreement lifecycle:End-to-end workflows between Legora and Docusign: The integration will expand to seamless end-to-end workflows across the two platforms. For example, a user can finalize a contract in Legora and seamlessly send it for signature through Docusign, or create a contract in Legora that automatically initiates an agreement workflow like internal review in DocusignAI grounded in executed contracts and templates: Users on the Legora platform will be able to select executed contracts and templates stored in Docusign to inform AI-powered analysis and outputs in Legora, without having to switch between platforms."Our vision for Intelligent Agreement Management is to make agreements work smarter across the entire business, and legal teams sit at the heart of that," said Allan Thygesen, Chief Executive Officer of Docusign. "Legora is a key partner to better serve the legal industry, and by bringing Legora's specialized legal AI into Docusign's end-to-end agreement platform, we're connecting deep legal insight directly to execution across the agreement lifecycle and the teams it supports.""Docusign is where mutual customers create, negotiate, sign, and manage their most important contracts," said Max Junestrand, CEO and Co-Founder of Legora. "By connecting Legora with Docusign, we are bringing legal-grade AI directly to the contracts and templates our shared customers rely on every day. The partnership reflects how we build: complementary to the systems legal teams already trust, and focused on helping lawyers deliver their best work across research, review, drafting, and negotiation."Built for how modern legal teams work
In-house legal teams across sectors are being asked to respond faster, manage higher contract volumes, respond quickly to regulatory change, and serve the business to achieve better outcomes during contractual negotiations. The Docusign-Legora partnership is designed for that reality. By pairing Docusign's workflows, agents, and agreement management platform with Legora's collaborative AI, legal teams will be able to surface risk across a contract portfolio, update templates and live agreements in response to new regulations, and move work through to contract completion within a single, connected environment. The result is a more connected way of working where legal teams can deliver clear, actionable outcomes and help the business execute faster across functions like sales, procurement, HR, and finance.This Docusign-Legora partnership is key to both companies' goals of better serving corporations and in-house legal teams, and the two companies are already in discussions for a deeper integration and partnership. The companies will roll out the integration in phases, with further detail and availability communicated to mutual customers over time.About Docusign

New Deloitte Study Shows that AI-powered Agreement Management Is Paying OffApril 16, 2026 11:00 AM
PR Newswire (US)

Study finds that AI + Automated Agreement Workflows Drive Nearly 30% Higher ROISAN FRANCISCO, April 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Docusign (NASDAQ: DOCU) today announced a new report with Deloitte — "Capitalizing on AI: How Automated Agreement Workflows Drive ROI" — revealing the next frontier for businesses looking to realize value from AI. The 2026 report finds companies investing in AI-powered agreement management are seeing meaningful returns. This is especially true for organizations using agentic workflows within end-to-end agreement platforms, who report nearly 30% higher ROI than those that do not.







AI is everywhere, but results aren't equal.
The study of more than 1,100 senior leaders across six countries reveals a growing benefit realization gap between organizations using fragmented AI tools and those adopting end-to-end platforms. This research follows the initial discovery by Deloitte that poor agreement management costs $2 trillion in global economic value annually.The biggest AI gains come from maturity, not just adoption.
It's still early days for many companies. Today, 61% of organizations rely on manual processes to surface insights after agreements are signed. But those using AI to analyze agreements proactively are unlocking new revenue and reducing missed opportunities.Organizations across industries are reporting measurable ROI from AI-powered agreement workflows, including on average:36% efficiency gains through time savings or cycle time reduction.36% cost avoidance due to mitigated risks.29% cost savings from lower labor costs.72% see improvements in agreement accuracy, including clerical error reduction, clause consistency, and regulatory compliance.The future opportunity: embedding AI insights from the start
Agreements are the foundation of every business, but they are still managed in silos. About 65% of organizations use four or more tools for their agreements, creating friction and slowing teams down.The report points to a different model. As Jonathan Jones, managing director in Deloitte Legal Business Services & Contract Lifecycle Management practice, Deloitte Tax LLP, says, "Value comes from moving the Intelligence & Insights phase to the front of the contract management process – using this data to not only help inform future contracts, but also to shape all subsequent steps of the contract management process and transform business processes."AI-powered agreement workflows are changing how teams work:Legal: 37% time reclaimed, with one team scaling from ~100-200 to 1,000 contracts per year.Sales: 43% time savings, 29% fewer contracting-related deal delays, and 1–2% revenue uplift, or about $4.8 million annually.*Procurement: 33% reduction in vendor spend as improved visibility enabled stronger negotiations and more strategic sourcing decisions.Customer Experience: 39% more customers completing the agreement process.HR: 45% time savings across agreement management.The takeaway: In 2026, automation alone isn't enough.
Organizations seeing the highest returns are doing more than just adopting AI and automation – they're connecting agreement data across the full lifecycle. Leaders are moving toward platforms that enable team collaboration and integrate with other systems, elevating agreement management as a core pillar of their broader enterprise strategy.With platforms like Docusign Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM), organizations can connect agreement data across systems, surface insights earlier, drive action, and ultimately capture real ROI.To download the full report, visit here.*Source: survey average of 300 annual renewals and a deal size of $670k.About Docusign

Docusign Brings Intelligent Contract Workflows to SlackbotMarch 31, 2026 2:00 PM
PR Newswire (US)

New Docusign integration helps teams move from conversation to completed agreements right within SlackSAN FRANCISCO, March 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Docusign (Nasdaq: DOCU) today announced a new integration with Slack, which brings its Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) platform directly into Slackbot. The Docusign integration is built for the ways teams work in Slack – where conversations can quickly turn into action from generating an agreement for a deal to collaborating on complicated contract negotiations.







"Agreements are at the center of how every business operates, but too often managing them requires switching between disconnected systems and manual processes," said Allan Thygesen, CEO of Docusign. "By bringing Docusign into Slack, we'll meet teams where they work and enable agentic workflows that can take action on their behalf – turning everyday conversations into completed agreements and helping businesses move faster, stay aligned, and close more deals.""Slack is the interface for work, where people, agents, data, and apps come together in one place," said Rob Seaman, EVP & GM, Slack. "With Docusign, joint customers will have rapid access to agentic contract workflows directly in Slack. It streamlines how agreements get done, and powers more effective collaboration across businesses."Every business runs on agreements, but the process of creating and managing them often slows teams down. With Docusign integrations with Slackbot, teams can:Create and send agreements instantly: Sales teams can generate contracts directly from Slack using real-time Salesforce CRM data, reducing time spent on repetitive, manual tasks and accelerating time to close.Automate renewals and reduce revenue leakage: Slackbot surfaces upcoming renewals and recommended actions, helping teams capture opportunities and avoid missed deadlines.Collaborate seamlessly across teams: Legal, sales, procurement, and finance can review and approve agreements within Slack, keeping everyone aligned.Find the contracts instantly: Within Slack, teams can quickly surface prior contracts with specific terms, helping them make informed decisions faster and reduce risk.Maintain a single source of truth: Agreement data syncs automatically with systems like Salesforce within Slack, ensuring accuracy and visibility across the business.For example, a sales representative can ask Slackbot to generate a contract for a new deal. Slackbot pulls the latest customer and pricing data from Salesforce, applies approved terms from Docusign IAM, and produces a ready-to-send agreement in seconds. The representative can review it, loop in legal for quick feedback, and send it for signature – all within the same Slack conversation. Once signed, the agreement status automatically updates across systems, keeping teams informed in real time.The collaboration between Docusign and Slack reflects a broader shift toward a more intelligent, agent-assisted workflow ecosystem. Instead of navigating multiple systems, people and agents can work together in a single interface, using tools that understand context, surface the right information, and help take the next step in real-time.This Docusign integration for Slack will be available in the coming months. To learn more about this collaboration, sign up here.About Docusign

Docusign Introduces AI Contract Review Assistant to Streamline Agreements WorkflowsMarch 25, 2026 11:00 AM
PR Newswire (US)

Bringing conversational AI to the Docusign Intelligent Agreement Management platform to analyze contracts, suggest edits, and draft playbooks SAN FRANCISCO, March 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Docusign (Nasdaq: DOCU) today introduced a new AI-powered contract review assistant, designed to help legal teams review agreements faster and keep business moving through the entire agreement process. The new experience is powered by Iris, Docusign's agreement AI engine, and is built directly upon the Docusign Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) platform.







Contract review is one of the most important steps in the agreement process, but it's also one of the most time-consuming. Teams like legal, sales, procurement, and more often review contracts in a painstaking way, manually comparing terms against company policies and suggesting edits. Many organizations rely on legal playbooks to guide reviews, but building and maintaining those playbooks manually requires significant effort.Docusign's new contract review assistant streamlines work while keeping legal experts in control. With this new experience users can:Quickly understand what matters in a contract: The assistant analyzes agreements and highlights key terms, risks, and deviations based on company standards and past negotiations.Get answers without digging through pages: Legal teams can ask questions such as "Does this contract auto-renew?" and receive answers that link to the exact terms in the contract.Speed up edits and negotiations: The assistant can suggest redlines, generate edits, and draft new contract language for reviewers to evaluate.Ensure contracts follow company standards: Agreements can be automatically compared against company playbooks to flag terms that don't match policy.Create playbooks faster: If a company doesn't have a playbook, teams can upload a template or reference document and automatically draft a structured playbook to guide future reviews.By reducing manual work, legal teams can spend more time on negotiation, risk management, and business strategy."Contract review has traditionally been one of the biggest bottlenecks in how agreements move through a business," said Dmitri Krakovsky, Chief Product Officer at Docusign. "With the new contract review assistant, legal teams can quickly understand contracts, identify risks, and generate edits in seconds. Because it's built on the Docusign IAM platform, those actions flow directly into the broader agreement workflow, helping legal stay connected with sales, procurement, HR, and other teams across the company."Part of the broader agreement workflow
Because the new assistant is built on the Docusign IAM platform, contract review fits seamlessly into agreement workflows across the business – including legal, sales, procurement, and HR. Teams stay aligned as agreements move seamlessly from contract creation and review to signature and ongoing management.Why it matters
Agreement management is increasingly recognized as an important driver of business performance. According to Deloitte's 2025 report on optimizing agreement management, over 70% of legal leaders believe that agreement management tools helped improve caseloads, get better legal outcomes in disputes, and increase sales team satisfaction scores. At Docusign, our own legal team has seen similar benefits. Using AI-powered contract review, they've significantly reduced the time spent on customer and vendor contract review – saving up to 15 minutes per NDA and cutting MSA negotiation time by 30 minutes to an hour.With the introduction of the contract review assistant, Docusign continues expanding the capabilities of its Intelligent Agreement Management platform, helping organizations transform how agreements are created, reviewed, signed, and managed across the business.These features are available to Docusign CLM and select IAM customers globally with support in English, French, German, Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese.

The timing and the amount of any repurchased common stock will be determined by Docusign's management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors.

Stock-based compensation-related charges, including employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions, are impacted by many factors, including the timing of employee stock transactions, the future fair market value of our common stock, and our future hiring and retention needs, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. We have provided a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the financial statement tables for our historical non-GAAP financial results included in this release.Webcast Conference Call InformationThe company will host a conference call on March 17, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. PT (5:00 p.m. ET) to discuss its financial results. A live webcast of the event will be available on the Docusign Investor Relations website at investor.docusign.com.

The forward-looking statements made in this press release relate only to events as of the date on which such statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date of this press release or to conform such statements to actual results or revised expectations, except as required by law.Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Key MetricsTo supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, as described below, to understand and evaluate our core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures, which may be different than similarly-titled measures used by other companies, are presented to enhance investors' overall understanding of our financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about our financial performance, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to important metrics used by our management for financial and operational decision-making. We present these non-GAAP measures to assist investors in seeing our financial performance using a management view, and because we believe that these measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our core financial performance over multiple periods with other companies in our industry. However, these non-GAAP measures are not intended to be considered in isolation from, a substitute for, or superior to our GAAP results.Non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share: We define these non-GAAP financial measures as the respective GAAP measures, excluding expenses related to stock-based compensation, employer payroll tax on employee stock transactions, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, acquisition-related expenses, restructuring and other related charges, and, as applicable, other special items. The amount of employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions is dependent on our stock price and other factors that are beyond our control and do not correlate to the operation of the business. When evaluating the performance of our business and making operating plans, we do not consider these items (for example, when considering the impact of equity award grants, we place a greater emphasis on overall stockholder dilution rather than the accounting charges associated with such grants). We believe it is useful to exclude these expenses in order to better understand the long-term performance of our core business and to facilitate comparison of our results to those of peer companies and over multiple periods. In addition to these exclusions, we subtract an assumed provision for income taxes to calculate non-GAAP net income. We utilize a fixed long-term projected tax rate in our computation of the non-GAAP income tax provision to provide better consistency across the reporting periods. We have determined the projected non-GAAP tax rate to be 20% for fiscal 2025 and 21% for fiscal 2026 due to the impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.Free cash flow: We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. We believe free cash flow is an important liquidity measure of the cash that is available (if any), after purchases of property and equipment, for operational expenses, investment in our business, and to make acquisitions. Free cash flow is useful to investors as a liquidity measure because it measures our ability to generate or use cash in excess of our capital investments in property and equipment. Once our business needs and obligations are met, cash can be used to maintain a strong balance sheet and invest in future growth.Billings: We define billings as total revenues plus the change in our contract liabilities and refund liability less contract assets and unbilled accounts receivable in a given period. Billings reflects sales to new customers plus subscription renewals and additional sales to existing customers. Only amounts invoiced to a customer in a given period are included in billings. We considered billings to measure our periodic performance, when taking into consideration the timing aspects of customer renewals, which represent a large component of our business. Given that most of our customers pay in annual installments one year in advance, but we typically recognize a majority of the related revenue ratably over time, we used billings to measure and monitor our ability to provide our business with the working capital generated by upfront payments from our customers. Beginning in the first fiscal quarter of 2027, we will no longer report or guide to billings.Annual Recurring Revenue: We calculate Annual Recurring Revenue ("ARR") as the annualized value of active customer contracts as of the measurement date. This calculation assumes that any contract expiring within the next 12 months renews on its existing terms, and excludes non-recurring revenue streams recognized at a point in time. When evaluating ARR on a product basis for contracts spanning multiple product lines, we allocate the support contract value to each product offering based on its proportional share of the total contract value. To annualize contracts, we divide the total committed contract value by the number of months in the subscription term and multiply by twelve. For international contracts denominated in foreign currencies, ARR is translated into U.S. dollars using a fixed exchange rate set at the beginning of each fiscal year. We adjust previously reported ARR annually to reflect these exchange rate changes for comparative purposes. We believe ARR measures our business performance and serves as a leading indicator of future revenue growth. ARR is an operating metric and should be viewed independently of revenue, deferred revenue, and remaining performance obligations; it does not represent revenue under U.S. GAAP on an annual basis.For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, please see "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS(Unaudited)

Docusign Partners with Anthropic to Bring Its Intelligent Contract Workflows to CoworkFebruary 24, 2026 9:30 AM
PR Newswire (US)

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Docusign (Nasdaq: DOCU), the leader in AI-powered contract management, today announced that its Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) platform is available as part of Anthropic's Cowork. By connecting to Docusign in Cowork, businesses can securely create, review, send, and manage agreements from start to finish — all through natural language prompts in Cowork.
This integration transforms how teams work with agreements, moving from passive summarization to active execution like drafting agreements, routing them for review, and triggering downstream actions across legal, sales, procurement, HR, and beyond."Docusign and Anthropic are raising the bar for agreement actions," said Allan Thygesen, CEO of Docusign. "What Docusign brings to agentic experiences like Cowork is deep context across all business agreements — the intelligent workflows that know how to act on that context and the trust, security, and scale enterprises expect.""Cowork is designed to turn intent into action across complex, multi-step work," said Matt Piccolella, Product Lead for Enterprise Apps at Anthropic. "Partnering with Docusign brings a leading system of record and execution for contracts into the Cowork experience, so people can confidently automate agreement workflows that matter most to their business."Here are just a few examples of what teams can accomplish:Use natural language to draft a contract from Docusign's Master Service Agreement template, populate business details, and route it to Legal for reviewInstantly surface all customer contracts expiring in the next 90 days with a price increase clause, and take action directly from the resultsReview AI-suggested redlines on a service contract, align them to company policy, and trigger a vendor review workflowRequest a summary report of all active contracts with a "data protection" clause and export it, formatted and ready to shareInitiate a new customer onboarding workflow and get notified the moment identity verification is complete, without leaving CoworkEmpowering teams where they already work
Modern enterprises shouldn't have to context-switch or choose between their preferred AI tools and their most critical agreement workflows. With Docusign natively integrated into Cowork, teams can execute sophisticated contract workflows without interrupting how and where they work.Built on enterprise trust
The Docusign connector, built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), brings enterprise-grade security to every agreement workflow in Cowork. Businesses must be authenticated by the platform, access is permission-based, and agreement data remains private and under the customer's control.The Docusign MCP connector is available today in beta globally, in English only, through Anthropic's Connectors Directory for Docusign customers.About Docusign

I was looking at it yesterday. Needs to hold above $77 as a breakout. It has been making lower highs and lower lows lately.
I think buying here is risky, but might work out. I'd rather have more correct and lower gain than trying to guess on timing one

DOCU cpps 71.54

10/3
JMP Securities analyst Patrick Walravens reiterates Docusign (NASDAQ:DOCU) with a Market Outperform and maintains $124 price target.



Gap 64.47

Just boilerplate language. Some folks read these share repurchase announcements like the company will buy back shares immediately. Often it takes a lot of time for the full allotment to be completed.

I read this as good news.....well almost until the end.

Increase to Stock Repurchase Program:


• Docusign's board of directors has authorized an increase to its existing stock repurchase program of an additional amount of up to $1.0 billion of Docusign's outstanding common stock. The program has no minimum purchase commitment and no mandated end date. As of June 5, 2025, our total remaining authorization under our stock repurchase plan is up to $1.4 billion.



• Repurchases under the program are expected to be executed, subject to general business and market conditions and other investment opportunities, through open market purchases, and other transactions in accordance with applicable securities laws. The timing and the amount of any repurchased common stock will be determined by Docusign's management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. The repurchase program does not obligate Docusign to acquire any particular amount of common stock and the repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time at Docusign's discretion without prior notice.

Think again....
Perhaps an overreaction but at least now you can start from a lower base.

I guess I should have listened to myself and jumped back into this one. Really on the move now. All bad news behind it

Double support around $73.40

Great company but stock is rolling over right now....sub 79.

Guess I missed getting back in. It may be a buy today

WOW!

I forgot about this stock. It has a monumental run lately.

It's a very weird Fall.

So, even this is breaking out

Nahhhh, well here, but not HERE! I got out of this one a while back. Had been still watching for eastunder. It was great at one time during Covid.

Hey Fung, still here. It's been like 3-4 years since I been here. What a run that was...

Well look at that! They may not be a complete screwup company afterall.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- DocuSign (Nasdaq: DOCU) today announced a restructuring plan (the "Restructuring Plan") designed to strengthen and support the Company's financial and operational efficiency while continuing to invest in product and related initiatives that will provide the foundation to realize its multi-year growth aspirations as an independent public company.

Sometimes it is. You actually called it a wee bit ago. Give yourself credit where its due.

"Time is death to a deal"....the longer it takes, the more likely it won't end well. - That was January 19th a few days after the second peak.

Sounds like the premium got baked in and DOCU wanted more? 65 when it was 45 was a nice concept. 65 when it was 65 doesn't seem like much of an offer. LOL

I am very curious what, if anything, will take place now.

Sometimes, it's not fun being right.

DocuSign price target cut to $45 amid report takeover talks stalled - analyst

https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/docusign-price-target-cut-to-45-amid-report-takeover-talks-stalled-analyst/ar-BB1hOLaw

DocuSign's (NASDAQ:DOCU) price target was reduced at Wells Fargo following a report that its takeover talks with private equity firms have stalled. DocuSign slumped 7.2%.

The price target for the electronic signature firm was cut to $45 from $55 at Wells Fargo, analyst Michael Turrin, who has an underweight rating on DocuSign (DOCU), wrote in a note on Monday.

Talks between private equity firms Bain Capital and Hellman & Friedman and DocuSign (DOCU) have stalled as the parties have been unable to agree to a price after weeks of discussions, according to a Reuters report on Monday, which cited people familiar with the matter.

"We see challenges acquiring DOCU given current scale ($11B mcap) alongside our view the co is facing a tough fundamental backdrop (inc comp headwinds, pricing pressure), leaving mgmt w/ limited options for organic improvement (+ more limited negotiating power)," Turrin wrote. "We believe these issues are likely contributors to Reuter's suggestions interested parties are now cooling & note elevated risk for DOCU standalone given FQ4 just closed."

The latest update comes after Bloomberg last week reported that some banks were in talks to provide financing for a $13 billion purchase of the electronic signature firm.

DocuSign (DOCU) shares first surged 12.5% on Dec. 15 when the Wall Street Journal reported the company could go private via a leveraged buyout. The stock had risen 3.5% from the day before the WSJ news was released until Monday.

My take is, it's not going to be good for the shareholders.....just guessing.

Don't mention it.......on second thought.....mention it.

Thank you!

Wall Street banks including JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Bank of America Corp. are in talks to provide as much as $8 billion in financing for a buyout of DocuSign Inc. that values the company at around $13 billion, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

Jefferies Financial Group Inc. and Deutsche Bank AG are also among the lenders considering a role in funding what would be the largest leveraged buyout of the year so far, according to the people, who asked not to be identified discussing the transaction.

Private equity firms Bain Capital and Hellman & Friedman are jockeying to buy the electronic signature platform, but the discussions are still ongoing and could change, the people added. Direct lenders have also been eyeing ways to support the acquisition, Bloomberg previously reported.

Representatives for JPMorgan, Bank of America, DocuSign, Jefferies, Deutsche Bank, Bain and Hellman & Friedman declined to comment.

Given the purchase price and expected leverage of the buyout, both financing routes would need preferred equity to close the deal, the people said. The amount of debt banks can provide is typically lower than direct lenders, so the preferred equity amount would stand to be higher should they win.

Shares in DocuSign fell as much as 4.7% after the Bloomberg report on Thursday, the most in intraday trading since early December.

Private Peers
Some of the largest lenders in the $1.7 trillion private credit market are hesitant to participate, according to the people. If provided by direct lenders, the financing would rank as one of the largest private loans on record, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

DocuSign faces a significant increase in leverage due to the potential buyout, as the company has never had more than $1 billion of debt since going public in 2018, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. For private lenders, that potential ramp-up in leverage adds a risk — especially as DocuSign competes for users against less-levered companies like Adobe Inc.

Direct lenders have also been jousting with broadly-syndicated loan and junk-bond markets that have roared back to life. That’s allowed banks to offer more attractive pricing compared to private credit firms.

Competition between banks and direct lenders is reaching a fever pitch in other deals, too. KKR & Co. has been leaning toward a financing package provided by banks for its potential buyout of Cotiviti Inc. Investment banks are also ahead of their private credit rivals to provide a €3 billion ($3.25 billion) debt package backing a potential buyout of Techem GmbH.

Behind a paywall

If anyone can print it - great. Toss it out here

It may mean absolutely nothing, but today's trading reversed the chart and not in a good way.

I'd do the same.

I don't believe Docusign has a dying business plan. I do think they needed time. But all that has changed anyway.

I could leave right now with a gain on the average, and I could make that decision at any time, but at this moment I don't feel that's responsible while knowing an offer might be on the table for DOCU. I feel I should wait and see what that might be.

So yes, I am holding for now.
