Cross-examination

Q. You claim IBM has "generative AI book of business" of ~$12B+. Where is that in the 10-K?

A. It is NOT in the 10-K. The 10-K does not break out a specific AI revenue line. The "book of business" figure (>$12.5B as of the Q4 2025 call on 2026-01-28: ~$2B software + ~$10.5B consulting) comes from earnings calls (CEO Krishna), not from filed documents, and is inception-to-date bookings rather than GAAP revenue. The closest filed metric is OpenShift ARR of $1.9B (>30% YoY growth). Watsonx rev
