Notes to the unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Data, page 58

1.     Refer to adjustment (B) to remove restructuring expenses that that are
directly related to
       the Spin-Off. You state that "[a]s these costs represent material,
nonrecurring costs
       directly related to the separation, a pro forma adjustment was performed
to reverse the
       costs." Since these costs have been incurred prior to the spin-off, in
the year ended
       September 30, 2018 and interim period ended March 31, 2019, please tell
us how this
       adjustment is in accordance with Rule 11-02)(b)(5) of Regulation S-X.

restrictions of
         Nuance Communications' intellectual property that are included as part
of the Intellectual

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
Key Metrics, page 73

3.       Your response to prior comment 4 indicates that your current
management has determined
         the only key performance indicators for Cerence are revenues,
operating margins and cash
         flows from operations. Nuance Communications, your parent company,
previously
         provided key metrics such as net new bookings and recurring revenues,
which appear to
         include the Automotive segment that will become Cerence. Further,
Nuance
         Communications attributed net new bookings growth to strong bookings
performance in
         its Automotive and Enterprise segments in discussion of key metrics in
its fiscal year 2018
         Form 10-K. Please clarify whether these measures will be considered
key metrics by
         Cerence.
       You may contact Becky Chow, Staff Accountant, at (202) 551-6524 or Craig
