ANSYS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

~~June~~September 30, 2023

(Unaudited)

1.Organization

ANSYS, Inc. (Ansys, we, us, our) develops and globally markets engineering simulation software and services widely used by engineers, designers, researchers and students across a broad spectrum of industries and academia, including high-tech, aerospace and defense, automotive, energy, industrial equipment, materials and chemicals, consumer products, healthcare and construction.

As defined by the accounting guidance for segment reporting, we operate as one segment.

Given the integrated approach to the multi-discipline problem-solving needs of our customers, a single sale may contain components from multiple product areas and include combined technologies. We also have a multi-year product and integration strategy that will result in new, combined products or changes to the historical product offerings. As a result, it is impracticable for us to provide accurate historical or current reporting among our various product lines.

2.Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information for commercial and industrial companies, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements (and notes thereto) included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (2022 Form 10-K). The condensed consolidated December 31, 2022 balance sheet presented is derived from the audited December 31, 2022 balance sheet included in the 2022 Form 10-K. In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have been included, and all adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Operating results for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period. Certain items in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements of prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported net income, comprehensive income, cash flows, total assets or total liabilities and stockholders' equity.

Accounting Guidance Issued and Not Yet Adopted

Recently issued accounting pronouncements are not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of highly liquid investments such as deposits held at major banks and money market funds. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Our cash and cash equivalents balances comprise the following:

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue consists of billings made or payments received in advance of revenue recognition from customer agreements. The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of billings to customers. Payment terms vary by the type and location of customer and the products or services offered. The time between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant.

The changes in deferred revenue, inclusive of both current and long-term deferred revenue, during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:


(in thousands)	(in thousands)	2023		2022		(in thousands)	2023		2022

Total revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations	$	~~1,295,798~~1,205,677

Table of Contents

Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes both deferred revenue and backlog. Our backlog represents deferred revenue associated with installment billings for periods beyond the current quarterly billing cycle and committed contracts with start dates beyond the end of the current period. Revenue recognized during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022 included amounts in deferred revenue and backlog at the beginning of the period of ~~$527.9~~$706.2 million and ~~$437.2~~$608.7 million, respectively.

4.Acquisitions

During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, we completed the acquisition of Diakopto for a purchase price of $83.3 million, or $77.2 million net of cash acquired, to expand our multiphysics simulation portfolio for semiconductor designers. The effects of the business combination were not material to our condensed consolidated results of operations.

On January 3, 2023, we completed the acquisition of DYNAmore for a purchase price of $139.2 million, or $126.4 million net of cash acquired. The acquisition expands our position as a simulation solution provider within the automotive industry. The effects of the acquisition were not material to our condensed consolidated results of operations.

During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, we incurred acquisition-related expenses of ~~$2.1~~$1.5 million and ~~$4.3~~$5.8 million, respectively. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized as selling, general and administrative and research and development expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisitions have been recorded based upon management's estimates of the fair market values as of each respective date of acquisition. The following tables summarize the fair value of consideration and the fair values of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the combined acquisitions at each respective date of acquisition:

~~Fair Value of Consideration:~~


Fair Value of Consideration:
(in thousands)
Cash	$	217,392
Non-cash consideration	5,056
Total consideration	$	222,448

~~Recognized Amounts of Identifiable Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed:~~


Recognized Amounts of Identifiable Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed:
(in thousands)
Cash	$	18,866
Accounts receivable and other tangible assets	~~18,600~~18,152
Developed software and core technologies	25,594
Customer lists	83,790
Trade names	2,910
Accounts payable and other liabilities	~~(9,049)~~(8,742)
Deferred revenue	(7,910)
Net deferred tax liabilities	~~(31,279)~~(31,272)
Total identifiable net assets	$	~~101,522~~101,388
Goodwill	$	~~120,926~~121,060

The goodwill, which is not tax-deductible, is attributed to intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, including the assembled workforces of the acquired businesses and the synergies expected to arise as a result of the acquisitions.

The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on preliminary calculations. The estimates and assumptions for these items are subject to change as additional information about what was known and knowable at each respective acquisition date is obtained during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date).

Table of Contents

We determined the fair value of our intangible assets using various valuation techniques, including the relief-from-royalty method and the multi-period excess earnings method. These models utilize certain unobservable inputs classified as Level 3 measurements as defined by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. The determination of fair value requires considerable judgment and is sensitive to changes in underlying assumptions, estimates and market factors. Estimating fair value requires us to make assumptions and estimates regarding our future plans, as well as industry and economic conditions. These assumptions and estimates include, but are not limited to: selection of a valuation methodology, royalty rate, discount rate, attrition rate and ~~attrition~~obsolescence rate.

The weighted-average useful life, valuation method and assumptions used to determine the fair value of the intangible assets acquired in 2023 are as follows:

The operating results of each acquisition have been included in our condensed consolidated financial statements since each respective date of acquisition. The effects of the acquisitions were not material to our condensed consolidated results of operations.

6.Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) amounts are computed by dividing earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS amounts assume the issuance of common stock for all potentially dilutive equivalents outstanding. To the extent stock awards are anti-dilutive, they are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

The details of basic and diluted EPS are as follows:

(1) In accordance with the accounting for business combinations, we recorded adjustments to goodwill for the effect of changes in the provisional fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date) as we obtained new information about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have ~~affected~~effected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of that date.

During the first quarter of 2023, we completed the annual impairment test for goodwill and the indefinite-lived intangible asset and determined that these assets had not been impaired as of the test date, January 1, 2023. No events or circumstances changed during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 that would indicate that the fair values of our reporting unit and indefinite-lived intangible asset are below their carrying amounts.

8.Fair Value Measurement

The valuation hierarchy for disclosure of assets and liabilities reported at fair value prioritizes the inputs for such valuations into three broad levels:

•Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

•Level 2: quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; or

•Level 3: unobservable inputs based on our own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value.

A financial asset's or liability's classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Our debt is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because these borrowings are not actively traded and have a variable interest rate structure based upon market rates. The carrying amount of our debt approximates the estimated fair value. See Note 10, "Debt", for additional information on our borrowings.

The following tables provide the assets carried at fair value and measured on a recurring basis:

The cash equivalents in the preceding tables represent money market funds, valued at net asset value, with carrying values which approximate their fair values because of their short-term nature.

The short-term investments in the preceding tables represent deposits held by certain foreign subsidiaries. The deposits have fixed interest rates with original maturities ranging from three months to one year.

The deferred compensation plan investments in the preceding tables represent trading securities held in a rabbi trust for the benefit of non-employee directors. These securities consist of mutual funds traded in an active market with quoted prices. As a result, the plan assets are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The plan assets are recorded within other long-term assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The equity securities represent our investment in a publicly traded company. These securities are traded in an active market with quoted prices. As a result, the securities are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The securities are recorded within other long-term assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

9.Leases

Our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities primarily include operating leases for office space. Our executive offices and those related to certain domestic product development, marketing, production and administration are located in a 186,000 square foot office facility in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania. The term of the lease is 183 months, which began on October 1, 2014 and expires on December 31, 2029. The lease agreement includes options to renew the contract through August 2044, an option to lease additional space in January 2025 and an option to terminate the lease in December 2025. No options are included in the lease liability. Absent the exercise of options in the lease, our remaining base rent (inclusive of property taxes and certain operating costs) is $4.5 million per annum through 2024 and $4.7 million per annum for 2025 - 2029.

10.Debt

On June 30, 2022, we entered into a credit agreement ~~(2022~~(as amended, the 2022 Credit Agreement) with PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, swing line lender, and an L/C issuer, the lenders party thereto, and the other L/C issuers party thereto. The 2022 Credit Agreement refinanced our previous credit agreements in their entirety. Terms used in this description of the 2022 Credit Agreement with initial capital letters that are not otherwise defined herein are as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement.

The 2022 Credit Agreement provides for a $755.0 million unsecured term loan facility and a $500.0 million unsecured revolving loan facility, which includes a $50.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit. The revolving loan facility is available for working capital and general corporate purposes. Each of the term loan facility and the revolving loan facility matures on June 30, 2027.

Borrowings under the term loan and revolving loan facilities accrue interest at a rate that is based on the Term SOFR plus an applicable margin or at the base rate plus an applicable margin, at our election. The base rate is the highest of (i) the Overnight Bank Funding Rate, plus 0.500%, (ii) the PNC Bank, National Association prime rate, and (iii) Daily Simple SOFR plus an adjustment for SOFR plus 1.00%. The applicable margin for the borrowings is a percentage per annum based on the lower of (1) a pricing level determined by our then-current consolidated net leverage ratio and (2) a pricing level determined by our public debt rating (if available).

On September 29, 2023, the 2022 Credit Agreement was amended to provide for an interest rate adjustment (Sustainability Rate Adjustment) based upon the achievement of certain environmental, social and governance key performance indicators (KPIs). The Sustainability Rate Adjustment range is +/- 0.05% and will go into effect in the first quarter of 2024 based on the 2023 KPIs and will be adjusted annually based on the KPIs of the preceding year.

The 2022 Credit Agreement also provides for the option to add certain foreign subsidiaries as borrowers and to borrow in Euros, Sterling, Yen and Swiss Francs under the revolving loan facility, up to a sublimit of $150.0 million. Borrowings under the revolving loan facility denominated in these currencies will accrue interest at a rate that is based on (a) for Euros, €STR, (b) for Sterling, SONIA, (c) for Yen, TONAR and (d) for Swiss Francs, SARON, plus an applicable margin calculated as described above.

Under the 2022 Credit Agreement, the weighted average interest rate in effect for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 was ~~5.88%~~6.22% and ~~5.72%~~5.89%, respectively. Under the prior credit agreements and the 2022 Credit Agreement, the weighted average interest rate in effect for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was ~~1.90%~~3.05% and ~~1.63%~~2.11%, respectively. The rate in effect as of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and for the ~~third~~fourth quarter of 2023 under the 2022 Credit Agreement is ~~6.22%~~6.37%.

The 2022 Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. The 2022 Credit Agreement also contains a financial covenant requiring us and our subsidiaries to maintain a consolidated net leverage ratio not in excess of 3.50 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter (for the four-quarter period ending on such date) with an opportunity for a temporary increase in such consolidated net leverage ratio to 4.00 to 1.00 upon the consummation of certain qualified acquisitions for which the aggregate consideration is at least $250.0 million.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023, we had $755.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the term loan, with a carrying value of ~~$753.7~~$753.8 million, which is net of ~~$1.3~~$1.2 million of unamortized debt discounts and issuance costs. The total amount was included in long-term debt. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023, no borrowings were outstanding under the revolving loan facility.

As of December 31, 2022, we had $755.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the term loan, with a carrying value of $753.6 million, which is net of $1.4 million of unamortized debt discounts and issuance costs. The total amount was included in long-term debt. As of December 31, 2022, no borrowings were outstanding under the revolving loan facility.

We were in compliance with all covenants under the 2022 Credit Agreement as of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

We are subject to various claims, investigations, and legal and regulatory proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business, including, but not limited to, commercial disputes, labor and employment matters, tax audits, alleged infringement of third parties' intellectual property rights and other matters. In our opinion, the resolution of pending matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position. However, each of these matters is subject to various uncertainties and it is possible that an unfavorable resolution of one or more of these proceedings could materially affect our consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Our Indian subsidiary has several service tax audits pending that have resulted in formal inquiries being received on transactions through mid-2012. We could incur tax charges and related liabilities of $7.1 million. As such charges are not probable at this time, a reserve has not been recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of ~~June~~September 30, 2023. The service tax issues raised in our notices and inquiries are very similar to the case, M/s Microsoft Corporation (I) (P) Ltd. Vs. Commissioner of Service Tax, New Delhi, wherein the Delhi Customs, Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal (CESTAT) issued a favorable ruling to Microsoft. The Microsoft ruling was subsequently challenged in the Supreme Court by the Indian tax authority and a decision is still pending. We can provide no assurances on the impact that the present Microsoft case's decision will have on our cases, however, an unfavorable ruling in the Microsoft case may impact our assessment of probability and result in the recording of a $7.1 million reserve. We are uncertain as to when these service tax matters will be concluded.

We sell software licenses and services to our customers under contractual agreements. Such agreements generally include certain provisions indemnifying the customer against claims, by third parties, of infringement or misappropriation of their intellectual property rights arising from such customer's usage of our products or services. To date, payments related to these indemnification provisions have been immaterial. For several reasons, including the lack of prior material indemnification claims, we cannot determine the maximum amount of potential future payments, if any, related to such indemnification provisions.

Business

Ansys, a corporation formed in 1994, develops and globally markets engineering simulation software and services widely used by engineers, designers, researchers and students across a broad spectrum of industries and academia, including high-tech, aerospace and defense, automotive, energy, industrial equipment, materials and chemicals, consumer products, healthcare and construction. Headquartered south of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, we employed ~~6,000~~6,100 and 5,600 people as of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. We focus on the development of open and flexible solutions that enable users to analyze designs on-premises and/or via the cloud, providing a common platform for fast, efficient and cost-conscious product development, from design concept to final-stage testing, validation and deployment. We distribute our suite of simulation technologies through direct sales offices in strategic, global locations and a global network of independent resellers and distributors (collectively, channel partners). It is our intention to continue to maintain this hybrid sales and distribution model. We operate and report as one segment.

When visionary companies need to know how their world-changing ideas will perform, they close the gap between design and reality using Ansys simulation. For more than 50 years, Ansys software has enabled innovators across industries to push the boundaries of product design by using the predictive power of simulation. From sustainable transportation and advanced satellite systems to life-saving medical devices, Ansys powers innovation that drives human advancement.

Our strategy of Pervasive Insights seeks to deepen the use of simulation in our core market, to inject simulation throughout the product lifecycle and extend the accessibility to a broader set of users and use cases. Our business has three vectors of growth:

•More products. Our broad and deep multiphysics portfolio enables us to grow with customers as they use simulation to solve more complex problems across a broad set of industries.

•More users. Investments in simulation education and user experience simplification has made simulation more accessible to a broader user base.

•More computations. Larger and more complex simulations drive more computation, requiring customers to use more Ansys licenses to complete their simulations.

Through decades of investments in the academic community and enhanced user experiences, our solutions have become accessible and relevant beyond our core "engineering" end user, to reach more users upstream and downstream from our core, which is the product validation process. Our multiphysics solutions enable our customers to address increasingly complex ~~R&D~~research and development (R&D) challenges from the component through the system and mission level of analysis. Our products seamlessly enable access to high performance compute capacity to run simulations, on-premises or in the cloud, which means our customers' R&D teams are unencumbered by compute capacity limitations that can hinder R&D cycle times.

The engineering simulation software market is strong and growing. The market growth is driven by customers' need for rapid, quality innovation in a cost efficient manner, enabling faster time to market for new products and lower warranty costs. Increasing product complexity is driving sustained demand for simulations. Key industry trends fueling customers' increasing needs for simulation include:

•Electrification;

•Autonomy;

•Connectivity;

•The industrial internet of things; and

•Sustainability, including minimizing waste and physical prototyping, and improving circularity and development time.

Table of Contents

We have been investing and intend to continue to invest in our portfolio to broaden the range of physics and enable customers to analyze the interactions among physics at the component, system and mission level. Our strategy of Pervasive Insights is aligned with the near-term market growth opportunities and is laying the foundation for a future where simulation can be further democratized to broader classes of end users and end-use cases.

To augment our organic development roadmaps, we intend to continue our strategic and disciplined acquisition strategy to grow our business. Our strategy is to partner with industry leaders to extend simulation into other ecosystems and customer R&D workflows. Our business is built on a culture of high ethical standards and commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging.

We license our technology to businesses in a diverse set of industries, educational institutions and governmental agencies. We believe that the features, functionality and integrated multiphysics capabilities of our software products are as strong as they have ever been. The software business is generally characterized by long sales cycles which increase the difficulty of predicting sales for any particular quarter. We make many operational and strategic decisions based upon short- and long-term sales forecasts that are impacted not only by these long sales cycles, but also by current global economic conditions. As a result, we believe that our overall performance is best measured by fiscal year results rather than by quarterly results.

We address the competition and price pressure that we face in the short- and long-term by focusing on expanding the breadth, depth, ease of use and quality of the technologies, features, functionality and integrated multiphysics capabilities of our software products as compared to our competitors; investing in research and development to develop new and innovative products and increasing the capabilities of our existing products; maintaining a diverse industry footprint and focusing on customer needs, training, consulting and support; and enhancing our distribution channels. We also evaluate and execute strategic acquisitions to supplement our global engineering talent, product offerings and distribution channels.

Overview

Overall GAAP and Non-GAAP Results

This section includes a discussion of GAAP and non-GAAP results. For reconciliations of non-GAAP results to GAAP results, see the section titled "Non-GAAP Results" herein.

The 2023 period non-GAAP results exclude the income statement effects of stock-based compensation, excess payroll taxes related to stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, expenses related to business combinations and adjustments for the income tax effect of the excluded items. The 2022 period non-GAAP results also exclude the income statement effects of acquisition accounting adjustments to deferred revenue from business combinations closed prior to 2022. There is no adjustment in 2023 as the impact is not material.

Our GAAP and non-GAAP results for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 as compared to the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 reflected the following variances:


		Three Months Ended June 30, 2023				Six Months Ended June 30, 2023					Three Months Ended September 30, 2023				Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

Our results reflect a decline in revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2023 due to reductions in subscription lease license and perpetual license revenue, partially offset by an increase in maintenance revenue. Our results reflect an increase in revenue during the ~~three and six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 due to growth in maintenance and subscription lease license ~~and maintenance~~revenue, partially offset by a decline in perpetual license revenue. We also experienced increased operating expenses during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, primarily due to increased personnel costs. ~~Additionally,~~

In the ~~actual~~context of broader U.S. ~~Dollar reported results were~~foreign policy shifts, the U.S. Department of Commerce is continuing to apply controls to the export to China of certain technologies. Ansys maintains a robust global compliance program. Compliance and cooperation with the U.S. government’s evolving requirements are paramount to Ansys. Ansys has and will continue to align our internal processes to comply with U.S. export laws and regulations and any changes to those laws and regulations. During the third quarter, the U.S. Department of Commerce informed Ansys of additional restrictions on sales to certain Chinese entities, and incremental approval processes and export restrictions on the sale of certain Ansys products and services to entities performing research & development and certain controlled activities in China. The incremental export restrictions and processes took effect during the third quarter and initially included a broad export license requirement for certain China sales, which was later replaced by an enhanced Ansys screening process that was approved by the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) on the final business day of the quarter. The new restrictions and processes have led to an elongated transaction cycle with certain prospects, which, in turn, is expected to lead to a delay in certain fourth quarter transactions and in some situations, could result in a loss of business. Ansys will continue to work collaboratively with the U.S. Department of Commerce to adhere to the new requirements, and we have internally aligned our business operations to adjust to these requirements. The requirements negatively impacted revenue and annual contract value (ACV) by $20.0 million in the current quarter and we expect a ~~stronger U.S. Dollar.~~ headwind for fiscal year 2023 of $25.0 million.

The ~~second~~third quarter's operating results also reflect a structural timing dynamic in the renewal base this quarter in which fewer lease contracts were up for renewal, resulting in comparatively lower up-front lease license revenue recognition. Quarterly dynamics may not be representative of the momentum in our business given the shifting mix of license types and renewal cycles that can be volatile quarter to quarter. While this timing dynamic leads to revenue volatility, it does not represent changes in customers' software usage or cash flows. This further highlights the importance of measuring our results based on our fiscal year rather than individual quarters.

This section also includes a discussion of constant currency results, which we use for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons by excluding the effects of foreign currency fluctuations on the reported results. All constant currency results presented in this Item 2 exclude the effects of foreign currency fluctuations on the reported results. To present this information, the 2023 period results for entities whose functional currency is a currency other than the U.S. Dollar were converted to U.S. Dollars at rates that were in effect for the 2022 comparable period, rather than the actual exchange rates in effect for the 2023 period. Constant currency growth rates are calculated by adjusting the 2023 period

reported amounts by the 2023 period currency fluctuation impacts and comparing to the 2022 comparable period reported amounts.

Impact of Foreign Currency

Our comparative financial results were impacted by fluctuations in the U.S. Dollar during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 as compared to the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The impacts on our revenue and operating income as a result of the fluctuations of the U.S. Dollar when measured against our foreign currencies based on 2022 period exchange rates are reflected in the table below. Amounts in brackets indicate an adverse impact from currency fluctuations.

Other Key Business Metric

~~Annual Contract Value (ACV)~~ACV is a key performance metric and is useful to investors in assessing the strength and trajectory of our business. ACV is a supplemental metric to help evaluate the annual performance of the business. Over the life of the contract, ACV equals the total value realized from a customer. ACV is not impacted by the timing of license revenue recognition. ACV is used by management in financial and operational decision-making and in setting sales targets used for compensation. ACV is not a replacement for, and should be viewed independently of, GAAP revenue and deferred revenue as ACV is a performance metric and is not intended to be combined with any of these items. There is no GAAP measure comparable to ACV. ACV is composed of the following:

•the annualized value of maintenance and subscription lease contracts with start dates or anniversary dates during the period, plus

•the value of perpetual license contracts with start dates during the period, plus

•the annualized value of fixed-term services contracts with start dates or anniversary dates during the period, plus

•the value of work performed during the period on fixed-deliverable services contracts.

When we refer to the anniversary dates in the definition of ACV above, we are referencing the date of the beginning of the next twelve-month period in a contractually committed multi-year contract. If a contract is three years in duration, with a start date of July 1, 2023, the anniversary dates would be July 1, 2024 and July 1, 2025. We label these anniversary dates as they are contractually committed. While this contract would be up for renewal on July 1, 2026, our ACV performance metric does not assume any contract renewals.

Example 1: For purposes of calculating ACV, a $100,000 subscription lease contract or a $100,000 maintenance contract with a term of July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2024, would each contribute $100,000 to ACV for fiscal year 2023 with no contribution to ACV for fiscal year 2024.

Example 2: For purposes of calculating ACV, a $300,000 subscription lease contract or a $300,000 maintenance contract with a term of July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2026, would each contribute $100,000 to ACV in each of fiscal years 2023, 2024 and 2025. There would be no contribution to ACV for fiscal year 2026 as each period captures the full annual value upon the anniversary date.

~~Table of Contents~~

Example 3: A perpetual license valued at $200,000 with a contract start date of March 1, 2023 would contribute $200,000 to ACV in fiscal year 2023.

During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022 our ACV was as follows:

The value and duration of multi-year subscription lease contracts executed during the period significantly impact the recognition of revenue. As a result, revenue may fluctuate, particularly on a quarterly basis, due to the timing of such contracts, relative differences in duration of long-term contracts from quarter to quarter and changes in the mix of license types sold compared to the prior year. Large swings in revenue growth rates are not necessarily indicative of customers' software usage changes or cash flows during the periods presented. To drive growth, we continue to focus on a number of sales improvement activities across our geographic regions, including sales hiring, pipeline building, productivity initiatives and customer engagement activities.

Use of Estimates:

The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to contract revenue, standalone selling prices of our products and services, allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, acquired deferred revenue, operating lease assets and liabilities, fair values of stock awards, deferred compensation, income taxes, uncertain tax positions, tax valuation reserves, and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience, market experience, estimated future cash flows and various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Revenue for the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 ~~increased 4.8%~~decreased 2.9% compared to the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, or ~~5.5%~~4.2% in constant currency. The reported $32.9 million decrease in lease license revenue was attributable to a $35.6 million decrease in value from multi-year licenses, partially offset by a $2.7 million increase in value from annual licenses. Perpetual license revenue, which is derived from new sales during the three months ended September 30, 2023, decreased 18.7%, or 19.8% in constant currency, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. Driving the decrease in perpetual license revenue was a 17.6% decrease in average deal size and a 1.1% decrease in the volume of deals. Multi-year lease license revenue and perpetual license revenue were negatively impacted in the current quarter by $20.0 million related to incremental China export restrictions and enhanced approval processes. Maintenance revenue growth of ~~10.5%~~12.3%, or ~~11.1%~~10.7% in constant currency, is correlated with previous license sales and is driven substantially by our existing customer base. The reported ~~$26.1~~$30.4 million growth in maintenance revenue was attributable to a ~~$22.2~~$28.9 million increase in maintenance associated with lease licenses and a ~~$3.9~~$1.5 million increase in maintenance associated with perpetual sales. Perpetual license revenue, which is derived from new sales during the three months ended June 30, 2023, decreased 5.5%, or 4.9% in constant currency, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. Driving the decrease in perpetual license revenue was a 4.5% decrease in the volume of deals and 1.0% decrease in average deal size.

We continue to experience ~~increased~~strong demand from our customers for contracts that often include longer-term, subscription leases involving a larger number of our software products. These arrangements typically involve a higher overall transaction price. The upfront recognition of license revenue related to these larger transactions can result in significant subscription lease revenue volatility. Software products, across a large variety of applications and industries, are increasingly distributed in software-as-a-service, cloud and other subscription environments in which the licensing approach is time-based rather than perpetual. This preference could result in a shift from perpetual licenses to time-based licenses, such as subscription leases, over the long term.

With respect to revenue, on average for the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the U.S. Dollar was ~~1.5% stronger,~~3.1% weaker, when measured against our foreign currencies, than for the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

Selling, General and Administrative: The net increase in selling, general and administrative costs was primarily due to the following:

•Increased salaries, incentive compensation and other headcount-related costs of ~~$15.4~~$11.7 million.

•Increased stock-based compensation of ~~$12.6~~$5.8 million.

•~~Increased business travel of $2.8 million as in-person meetings and live attendance at trade events have continued to expand.~~

•~~Increased bad debt expense of $2.3 million due to increased risk associated with receivables from customers in China.~~

•~~Decreased costs related to foreign exchange translation of $1.2 million due to a stronger U.S. Dollar.~~

We anticipate that we will continue to make targeted investments in our global sales and marketing organizations and our global business infrastructure to enhance and support our revenue-generating activities.

Research and Development: The increase in research and development costs was primarily due to the following:

•Increased salaries ~~incentive compensation~~ and other headcount-related costs of ~~$12.2~~$10.1 million.

•Increased stock-based compensation of ~~$3.0~~$4.3 million.

Amortization: The ~~net~~ increase in amortization expense was primarily due to the amortization of newly acquired intangible assets.

We have traditionally invested significant resources in research and development activities and expect to continue to make investments in expanding the ease of use and capabilities of our broad portfolio of simulation software products.

The impacts from currency fluctuations resulted in ~~decreased~~increased operating income of ~~$1.7~~$2.5 million for the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 as compared to the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

Interest Income: Interest income for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 was ~~$3.4~~$4.9 million as compared to ~~$0.3~~$1.3 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. Interest income increased as a result of a higher interest rate environment and the related increase in the average rate of return on invested cash balances.

Interest Expense: Interest expense for the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 was ~~$11.6~~$12.3 million as compared to ~~$4.6~~$6.1 million for the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 due to a higher interest rate environment.

Other ~~Expense,~~Income (Expense), net: Other ~~expense for~~income (expense) consisted primarily of net foreign currency gains during the ~~quarter~~three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 ~~was $3.5 million as compared to other expense of $0.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Amortization: The increase in amortization expense was primarily due to the amortization of newly acquired intangible ~~assets acquired within the last year.~~assets.

Maintenance and Service: The net ~~increase~~decrease in maintenance and service costs was primarily due to the following:

•~~Increased stock-based compensation~~Decreased salaries of ~~$1.5~~$1.6 million.

•~~Increased third-party technical support of $1.0 million.~~

•~~Increased business travel of $0.6 million as in-person meetings and live attendance at trade events have continued to expand.~~

•Decreased costs related to foreign exchange translation of ~~$1.7~~$1.3 million due to a stronger U.S. Dollar.

•~~Decreased salaries and incentive~~Increased stock-based compensation of ~~$1.4~~$2.5 million.

The improvement in gross profit was a result of the increase in revenue, partially offset by the increase in the cost of sales.

Selling, General and Administrative: The net increase in selling, general and administrative costs was primarily due to the following:

•Increased salaries, incentive compensation and other headcount-related costs of ~~$29.7~~$41.2 million.

•Increased stock-based compensation of ~~$16.1~~$21.9 million.

•Increased business travel of $8.0 million as in-person meetings and live attendance at trade events have continued to expand.

•Increased ITmarketing expenses of $3.1 million.

•Increased information technology (IT) maintenance and software hosting costs of ~~$1.7~~$2.4 million.

•Increased ~~marketing expenses~~facilities costs of ~~$1.3~~$1.9 million.

•Decreased costs related to foreign exchange translation of ~~$6.7~~$5.3 million due to a stronger U.S. Dollar.

•Decreased third-party commissions of $2.7 million.

Research and Development: The net increase in research and development costs was primarily due to the following:

•Increased salaries, incentive compensation and other headcount-related costs of ~~$21.8~~$31.6 million.

•Increased stock-based compensation of ~~$7.7~~$12.0 million.

•Increased IT maintenance and software hosting costs of ~~$1.6~~$2.4 million.

•~~Increased business travel of $1.5 million as in-person meetings have continued to expand.~~

•~~Decreased costs related to foreign exchange translation of $2.8 million due to a stronger U.S. Dollar.~~

Amortization: The ~~net~~ increase in amortization expense was primarily due to the amortization of newly acquired intangible assets.

The impacts from currency fluctuations resulted in decreased operating income of ~~$5.6~~$3.1 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended

~~June~~September 30, 2023 as compared to the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

Interest Income: Interest income for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 was ~~$7.5~~$12.4 million as compared to ~~$0.8~~$2.1 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The higher interest rate environment and the related increase in the average rate of return on invested cash balances was partially offset by a lower invested cash balance as a result of investments in acquisitions and share repurchases.

Interest Expense: Interest expense for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 was ~~$22.3~~$34.6 million as compared to ~~$7.6~~$13.7 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. Interest expense increased as a result of a higher interest rate environment.

Other Expense, net: Other expense for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 was ~~$3.7~~$3.6 million as compared to other expense of ~~$1.5~~$2.1 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. Other expense consisted primarily of losses on equity investments and net foreign currency losses.

We use non-GAAP financial measures (a) to evaluate our historical and prospective financial performance as well as our performance relative to our competitors, (b) to set internal sales targets and spending budgets, (c) to allocate resources, (d) to measure operational profitability and the accuracy of forecasting, (e) to assess financial discipline over operational expenditures and (f) as an important factor in determining variable compensation for management and employees. In addition, many financial analysts that follow us focus on and publish both historical results and future projections based on non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that it is in the best interest of our investors to provide this information to analysts so that they accurately report the non-GAAP financial information. Moreover, investors have historically requested, and we have historically reported, these non-GAAP financial measures as a means of providing consistent and comparable information with past reports of financial results.

While we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors, there are limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, are not reported by all our competitors and may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of our competitors due to potential differences in the exact method of calculation. We compensate for these limitations by using these non-GAAP financial measures as supplements to GAAP financial measures and by reviewing the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP financial measures.

The adjustments to these non-GAAP financial measures, and the basis for such adjustments, are outlined below:

Acquisition accounting for deferred revenue. Historically, we have consummated acquisitions in order to support our strategic and other business objectives. Under prior accounting guidance, a fair value provision resulted in acquired deferred revenue that was often recorded on the opening balance sheet at an amount that was lower than the historical carrying value. Although this fair value provision has no impact on our business or cash flow, it adversely impacts our reported GAAP revenue in the reporting periods following an acquisition. In 2022, we adopted accounting guidance which eliminates the fair value provision that resulted in the deferred revenue adjustment on a prospective basis. In order to provide investors with financial information that facilitates comparison of both historical and future results, we have historically provided non-GAAP financial measures which exclude the impact of the acquisition accounting adjustment for acquisitions prior to the adoption of the new guidance in 2022. The 2022 non-GAAP financial measures presented in this document include the adjustment to exclude the income statement effects of acquisition accounting adjustments to deferred revenue from business combinations closed prior to 2022. There is no adjustment included for 2023 as the impact is not material.

Amortization of intangible assets from acquisitions. We incur amortization of intangible assets, included in our GAAP presentation of amortization expense, related to various acquisitions we have made. We exclude these expenses for the purpose of calculating non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating profit margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share when we evaluate our continuing operational performance because these costs are fixed at the time of an acquisition, are then amortized over a period of several years after the acquisition and generally cannot be changed or influenced by us after the acquisition. Accordingly, we do not consider these expenses for purposes of evaluating our performance during the applicable time period after the acquisition, and we exclude such expenses when making decisions to allocate resources. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow investors to (a) evaluate the effectiveness of the methodology and information used by us in our financial and operational decision-making, and (b) compare our past reports of financial results as we have historically reported these non-GAAP financial measures.

Stock-based compensation expense. We incur expense related to stock-based compensation included in our GAAP presentation of cost of maintenance and service; research and development expense; and selling, general and administrative expense. This non-GAAP adjustment also includes excess payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation. Although stock-based compensation is an expense and viewed as a form of compensation, we exclude these expenses for the purpose of calculating non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating profit margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share when we evaluate our continuing operational performance. Specifically, we exclude stock-based compensation during our annual budgeting process and our quarterly and annual assessments of our performance. The annual budgeting process is the primary mechanism whereby we allocate resources to various initiatives and operational requirements. Additionally, the annual review by our board of directors during which it compares our historical business model and profitability to the planned business model and profitability for the forthcoming year excludes the impact of stock-based compensation. In evaluating the performance of our senior management and department managers, charges related to stock-based compensation are excluded from expenditure and profitability results. In fact, we record stock-based compensation expense into a stand-alone cost center for which no single operational manager is responsible or accountable. In this way, we can review, on a period-to-period basis, each manager's performance and assess financial discipline over operational expenditures without the effect of stock-based compensation. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow investors to (a) evaluate our operating results and the effectiveness of the methodology used by us to review our operating results, and (b) review historical comparability in our financial reporting as well as comparability with competitors' operating results.

Expenses related to business combinations. We incur expenses for professional services rendered in connection with business combinations, which are included in our GAAP presentation of selling, general and administrative expense. We also incur other expenses directly related to business combinations, including compensation expenses and concurrent restructuring activities, such as employee severances and other exit costs. These costs are included in our GAAP presentation of selling, general and administrative and research and development expenses. We exclude these acquisition-related expenses for the purpose of calculating non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating profit margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share when we evaluate our continuing operational performance, as we generally would not have otherwise incurred these expenses in the periods presented as a part of our operations. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow investors to (a) evaluate our operating results and the effectiveness of the methodology used by us to review our operating results, and (b) review historical comparability in our financial reporting as well as comparability with competitors' operating results.

Non-GAAP tax provision. We utilize a normalized non-GAAP annual effective tax rate (AETR) to calculate non-GAAP measures. This methodology provides better consistency across interim reporting periods by eliminating the effects of non-recurring items and aligning the non-GAAP tax rate with our expected geographic earnings mix. To project this rate, we analyzed our historic and projected non-GAAP earnings mix by geography along with other factors such as our current tax structure, recurring tax credits and incentives, and expected tax positions. On an annual basis we re-evaluate and update this rate for significant items that may materially affect our projections.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

We have provided a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as listed below:


GAAP Reporting Measure			Non-GAAP Reporting Measure
Revenue			Non-GAAP Revenue
Gross Profit			Non-GAAP Gross Profit
Gross Profit Margin			Non-GAAP Gross Profit Margin
Operating Income			Non-GAAP Operating Income

Net Income			Non-GAAP Net Income

Constant currency. In addition to the non-GAAP financial measures detailed above, we use constant currency results for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons by excluding the effects of foreign currency fluctuations on the reported results. To present this information, the 2023 results for entities whose functional currency is a currency other than the U.S. Dollar were converted to U.S. Dollars at rates that were in effect for the 2022 comparable period, rather than the actual exchange rates in effect for the 2023 period. Constant currency growth rates are calculated by adjusting the 2023 reported amounts by the 2023 currency fluctuation impacts and comparing the adjusted amounts to the 2022 comparable period reported amounts. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow investors to (a) evaluate the effectiveness of the methodology and information used by us in our financial and operational decision-making, and (b) compare our reported results to our past reports of financial results without the effects of foreign currency fluctuations.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments

Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of highly liquid investments such as money market funds and deposits held at major banks. Short-term investments consist primarily of deposits held by certain of our foreign subsidiaries with original maturities of three months to one year. The following table presents our foreign and domestic holdings of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

In general, it is our intention to permanently reinvest all earnings in excess of previously taxed amounts. Substantially all of the pre-2018 earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries were taxed through the transition tax and post-2018 current earnings are taxed as part of global intangible low-taxed income tax expense. These taxes increase our previously taxed earnings and allow for the repatriation of the majority of our foreign earnings without any residual U.S. federal tax. Unrecognized provisions for taxes on indefinitely reinvested undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries would not be significant.

The amount of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments held by foreign subsidiaries is subject to translation adjustments caused by changes in foreign currency exchange rates as of the end of each respective reporting period, the offset to which is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss on our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Net cash used in financing activities increased during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 compared to the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 due to increased stock repurchases of $40.9 million.

Other Cash Flow Information

On June 30, 2022, we entered into a credit agreement (as amended, the 2022 Credit ~~Agreement~~Agreement) with PNC Bank, National Association as administrative agent, swing line lender, and an L/C issuer, the lenders party thereto, and the other L/C issuers party thereto. The 2022 Credit Agreement refinanced our previous credit agreements in their entirety. The 2022 Credit Agreement provides for a $755.0 million unsecured term loan facility and a $500.0 million unsecured revolving loan facility, which includes a $50.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit. Terms used in this description of the 2022 Credit Agreement with initial capital letters that are not otherwise defined herein are as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the carrying value of our term loan was ~~$753.7~~$753.8 million, with no principal payments due in the next twelve months. Borrowings under the term loan and revolving loan facilities accrue interest at a rate that is based on the Term SOFR plus an applicable margin or at the base rate plus an applicable margin, at our election. The base rate is the highest of (i) the Overnight Bank Funding Rate, plus 0.500%, (ii) the PNC Bank, National Association prime rate, and (iii) Daily Simple SOFR plus an adjustment for SOFR plus 1.00%. The applicable margin for the borrowings is a percentage per annum based on the lower of (1) a pricing level determined by our then-current consolidated net leverage ratio and (2) a pricing level determined by our public debt rating (if available).

The rate in effect for the ~~third~~fourth quarter under the 2022 Credit Agreement is ~~6.22%~~6.37%.

We previously entered into operating lease commitments, primarily for our domestic and international offices. The commitments related to these operating leases is ~~$142.7~~$136.6 million, of which ~~$27.0~~$26.2 million is due in the next twelve months.

Under our stock repurchase program, we repurchased shares as follows:


		Six Months Ended					Nine Months Ended

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023, 1.1 million shares remained available for repurchase under the program. Average price paid per share excludes excise tax. As of January 1, 2023, our share repurchases in excess of issuances are subject to a 1% excise tax enacted by the Inflation Reduction Act. Any excise tax incurred is recognized and reflected as part of the cost basis of the shares acquired in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Equity.

The authorized repurchase program does not have an expiration date, and the pace of the repurchase activity will depend on factors such as working capital needs, cash requirements for acquisitions, our stock price, and economic and market conditions. Our stock repurchases may be effected from time to time through open market purchases including pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan.

Table of Contents

We continue to generate positive cash flows from operating activities and believe that the best uses of our excess cash are to invest in the business; acquire or make investments in complementary companies, products, services and technologies; and make payments on our outstanding debt balances. Any future acquisitions may be funded by available cash and investments, cash generated from operations, debt financing or the issuance of additional securities. Additionally, we have in the past, and expect in the future, to repurchase stock in order to both offset dilution and return capital, in excess of our requirements, to stockholders with the goal of increasing stockholder value.

~~Table of Contents~~

We believe that existing cash and cash equivalent balances, together with cash generated from operations and access to our $500.0 million revolving loan facility, will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements and contractual obligations through at least the next twelve months and the foreseeable future thereafter. Our cash requirements in the future may also be financed through additional equity or debt financings. However, future disruptions in the capital markets could make financing more challenging, and there can be no assurance that such financing can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

Contractual and Other Obligations

There were no material changes to our significant contractual and other obligations during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 as compared to those previously reported within "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our 2022 Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Estimates

No significant changes have occurred to our critical accounting estimates as previously reported within "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our 2022 Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk. As we operate in international regions, a portion of our revenue, expenses, cash, accounts receivable and payment obligations are denominated in foreign currencies. As a result, changes in currency exchange rates will affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. We seek to reduce our currency exchange transaction risks primarily through our normal operating and treasury activities, including the use of derivative instruments.

With respect to revenue, on average for the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the U.S. Dollar was ~~1.5% stronger,~~3.1% weaker, when measured against our foreign currencies, than for the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. With respect to revenue, on average for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the U.S. Dollar was ~~4.0%~~1.8% stronger, when measured against our foreign currencies, than for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The table below presents the net impacts of currency fluctuations on revenue for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023. Amounts in brackets indicate a net adverse impact from currency fluctuations.

The impacts from currency fluctuations resulted in increased operating income of $2.5 million and decreased operating income of ~~$1.7 million and $5.6~~$3.1 million for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, respectively.

A hypothetical 10% strengthening in the U.S. Dollar against other currencies would have decreased our revenue by ~~$23.0~~$19.8 million and ~~$43.8~~$63.6 million for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, respectively, and decreased our operating income by ~~$10.1~~$7.4 million and ~~$15.2~~$22.6 million for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, respectively.

The most meaningful currency impacts on revenue and operating income are typically attributable to U.S. Dollar exchange rate changes against the Euro and Japanese Yen. Historical exchange rates for these currency pairs are reflected in the charts below:

Interest Rate Risk. Changes in the overall level of interest rates affect the interest income that is generated from our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and the interest expense that is generated from our outstanding borrowings. For the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, interest income was ~~$3.4~~$4.9 million and ~~$7.5~~$12.4 million, respectively, and interest expense was ~~$11.6~~$12.3 million and ~~$22.3~~$34.6 million, respectively.

Table of Contents

Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of highly liquid investments such as money market funds and deposits held at major banks. Short-term investments consist primarily of deposits held by certain foreign subsidiaries with original maturities of three months to one year. A hypothetical 100 basis point change in interest rates on these holdings would have an immaterial impact on our financial results.

~~Table of Contents~~

Our outstanding term loan borrowings of $755.0 million as of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 accrue interest at a rate that is based on the Term SOFR plus an applicable margin or at the base rate plus an applicable margin, at our election. The base rate is the highest of (i) the Overnight Bank Funding Rate, plus 0.500%, (ii) the PNC Bank, National Association prime rate, and (iii) Daily Simple SOFR plus an adjustment for SOFR plus 1.00%. The applicable margin for the borrowings is a percentage per annum based on the lower of (1) a pricing level determined by our then-current consolidated net leverage ratio and (2) a pricing level determined by our public debt rating (if available).

Because interest rates applicable to the outstanding borrowings are variable, we are exposed to interest rate risk from changes in the underlying index rates, which affects our interest expense. A hypothetical increase of 100 basis points in interest rates would result in an increase in interest expense and a corresponding decrease in cash flows of $7.7 million over the next twelve months, based on outstanding borrowings at ~~June~~September 30, 2023.

No other material change has occurred in our market risk subsequent to December 31, 2022.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act, we have evaluated, with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act.

We believe, based on our knowledge, that the financial statements and other financial information included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in this report. We are committed to both a sound internal control environment and to good corporate governance.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.

From time to time, we review the disclosure controls and procedures, and may periodically make changes to enhance their effectiveness and to ensure that our systems evolve with our business.

Changes in Internal Control. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 that materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.Legal Proceedings

We are subject to various claims, investigations and legal and regulatory proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business, including, but not limited to, commercial disputes, labor and employment matters, tax audits, alleged infringement of third parties' intellectual property rights and other matters. Use or distribution of our products could generate product liability, regulatory infraction, or claims by our customers, end users, channel partners, government entities or third parties. Sales and marketing activities that impact processing of personal data, as well as measures taken to promote license compliance against pirated or unauthorized usage of our commercial products, may also result in claims by customers and individual employees of customers or by non-customers using pirated versions of our products. Each of these matters is subject to various uncertainties, and it is possible that an unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could have a significant adverse effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements as well as cause reputational damage. In our opinion, the resolution of pending matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We face a number of risks that could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. A discussion of our risk factors can be found in Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in our 2022 Form 10-K. ~~No material changes have occurred~~The risk factor set forth below includes additional information relating to ~~such~~trade restrictions and should be read together with the risk factors ~~after the filing of~~disclosed in our 2022 Form ~~10-K.~~10-K.

We are subject to trade restrictions that have impacted, and may continue to impact, our ability to sell to customers and could result in liabilities for violations.

Due to the global nature of our business, we are subject to domestic and international trade protection laws, policies, sanctions and other regulatory requirements affecting trade and investment. For example, we are subject to import and export restrictions and regulations that prohibit the shipment or provision of certain products and services to certain countries, regions and persons targeted by the U.S. and certain end uses identified by the U.S., including the Export Administration Regulations administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), economic and trade sanctions administered by the U.S. Department of Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) administered by the Department of State’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC).

BIS continues to expand its export control restrictions, including with respect to the export to China of certain technologies, impose new export licensing requirements, and require enhanced denied party screening processes. These additional restrictions have limited and could continue to limit our ability to sell and deliver products and services to certain customers, including to entities performing research and development and certain controlled activities in China. Export control restrictions have led to, and, in the future may continue to lead to, elongated transaction cycles with certain customers. In addition, export control restrictions have resulted, and may continue to result, in reduced sales and/or delays in our ability to deliver products and services to certain prospects, adversely affecting our business and consolidated financial statements. In certain cases, when an export license may be required to deliver products and services to certain customers, the receipt of licenses to export to certain countries, including China, is not guaranteed and, in the absence of a license or applicable license exception, our ability to sell and deliver products and services to certain customers may be negatively impacted. Additionally, BIS continues to add more companies, including existing customers, to its Entity List, and OFAC continues to increase the number of companies subject to its sanctions, which continues to limit the companies with which we can do business.

Adding companies as restricted parties and subjecting companies to heightened export control restrictions may additionally encourage those companies to seek substitute products from competitors whose products are not subject to these restrictions or to develop their own products.

Additionally, existing and prospective customers have been and may continue to be added as restricted parties and/or be subjected to trade restrictions and additional end uses, products or services have been and may continue to be identified for further restrictions. Such actions have resulted in, and may continue to result in, increases to our cost of sales and time to market. Additional trade restrictions on our business by the U.S., China or other countries may also result in other indirect impacts that cannot be quantified. Restrictions on our ability to sell and ship to customers could have a significant adverse effect on our business and consolidated financial statements.

Our products could also be delivered to restricted parties by third parties, including our channel partners. We take measures to confirm that our channel partners comply with all applicable trade restrictions, but any failure by channel partners to comply with such restrictions could have negative consequences for us.

Violators of trade restrictions or restricted end uses may be subject to significant penalties, which may include considerable monetary fines, criminal proceedings against them and their officers and employees, a denial of export privileges and suspension or debarment from selling products or services to the federal government. Any such penalties could have a significant adverse effect on our business and consolidated financial statements. In addition, the political and media scrutiny surrounding any governmental investigation could cause significant expense and reputational harm and distract senior executives from managing normal day-to-day operations.
