Sales and Marketing Expenses - The increase in sales and marketing expense was primarily driven by a $1.8 million increase in stock-based compensation related to leadership transitions.

Co st of Revenues - The increase in cost of revenues was primarily driven by $1.0 million of lower capitalization of deferred costs due to slowed hiring, as well as $0.7 million of expenses associated with an all-company meeting held in the current quarter, previously held in the fourth quarter of the calendar year.
