DALLAS: o9, a leading software company that is powering enterprise planning and decisioning models across 30-plus industry verticals with its groundbreaking, AI-powered Digital Brain platform, today reported continued expansion of enterprise planning deployments in Q1’26, reflecting ongoing adoption across global enterprises and sustained demand across retail, consumer, and capital equipment industries.

o9 is off to a strong start, closing Q1 with record booking growth. Performance in the quarter was driven by customer expansions across the consumer products and retail sectors, alongside robust new business in retail, consumer, and capital equipment. Geographically, North America and international segments contributed evenly, with EMEA delivering its strongest quarter to date. This momentum reflects the continued expansion of planning programs across multiple domains, as organizations evolve from core planning toward more integrated business planning and execution capabilities.

This momentum aligns with the direction o9 has been advancing through APEX, the Company’s Agile, Adaptive, Autonomous approach to planning and execution. As enterprises face rising volatility and complexity, they are looking for operating models that connect planning more directly with execution, reduce decision latency, and improve performance across supply chain, commercial, and financial domains. With APEX, o9 is extending its Digital Brain platform to support that shift.

Other achievements in Q1’26 included the appointment of Gabe Cortes to Chief Financial Officer, strengthening o9’s leadership team as the Company continues to scale. o9 was also recognized in three new 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant reports for Supply Chain Planning for Process Industries, Supply Chain Planning for Discrete Industries, and Decision Intelligence Platforms. During the quarter, o9 engaged with clients and partners at aim10x Digital 2026, which brought together 6,000-plus registrants across 23 sessions focused on how enterprises are advancing planning transformation, improving decision speed, and driving value across complex global operations. Building on this momentum, o9 will host its upcoming aim10x Summits in Amsterdam and Chicago later this year, where business leaders will share practical approaches to connected planning and execution at scale.

Chakri Gottemukkala, Co-Founder and CEO of o9, said, “Enterprises are under growing pressure to respond faster and operate with greater precision in increasingly complex environments. What we are seeing across our customer base is a shift from fragmented planning toward more connected execution. With o9’s Digital Brain and APEX model, we are helping global enterprises align decisions across functions and build the agility needed to continuously adapt and improve.”
