NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

General

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PTC Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries and have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. While we believe that the disclosures presented are adequate in order to make the information not misleading, these unaudited quarterly financial statements should be read in conjunction with our annual consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of those of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates and for the periods indicated. The September 30, 2022 Consolidated Balance Sheet included herein is derived from our audited consolidated financial statements.

Unless otherwise indicated, all references to a year mean our fiscal year, which ends on September 30.

2. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Receivables, Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

(in thousands)	June 30,<br>2023		September 30,<br>2022
Short-term and long-term receivables	$	844,941	$	870,962
Contract assets	$	17,826	$	21,096
Deferred revenue	$	650,427	$	520,333

During the nine months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized $457.0 million of revenue that was included in Deferred revenue as of September 30, 2022. In addition, Deferred revenue increased by $97.8 million as a result of the acquisition of ServiceMax. The remainder of the change was driven by additional deferrals, primarily from new billings.

Our multi-year, non-cancellable on-premises subscription contracts provide customers with an annual right to exchange software within the subscription with other software. As of June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, our total revenue liability was $25.2 million and $34.2 million, respectively, primarily associated with the annual right to exchange on-premises subscription software.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Our contracts with customers include transaction price amounts allocated to performance obligations that will be satisfied and recognized as revenue at a later date. As of June 30, 2023, the transaction price amounts include performance obligations of $650.4 million recorded in Deferred revenue and $1,246.5 million that are not yet recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We expect to recognize approximately 58% of the total $1,896.9 million over the next 12 months, with the remaining amount thereafter.

Table of Contents

ServiceMax

On January 3, 2023, we acquired ServiceMax, Inc. pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement dated November 17, 2022 by and among PTC, ServiceMax, Inc., and ServiceMax JV, LP. ServiceMax develops and licenses cloud-native, product-centric field service management (FSM) software, which is included within our PLM product group. The purchase price of $1,448.2 million, net of cash acquired, is payable in two installments. Upon closing of the transaction, PTC paid the first installment of $828.2 million, as adjusted for working capital, indebtedness, cash, and transaction expenses as set forth in the Share Purchase Agreement. The remaining installment of $650.0 million, of which $620.0 million represents the fair value as of the acquisition date and $30.0 million is imputed interest, is payable on October 2, 2023. The fair value of the deferred acquisition payment was calculated based on our borrowing rate at the time of the acquisition.

PTC borrowed $630 million under the revolving line of our new credit facility and $500 million under the term loan of the new credit facility to repay amounts under the prior credit facility and to pay the closing purchase price and transaction expenses related to the acquisition. ServiceMax had approximately 500 employees on the close date. In the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023, ServiceMax revenue was $46.6 million and $91.7 million, respectively, and ServiceMax earnings were immaterial.

The acquisition of ServiceMax has been accounted for as a business combination. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair values of intangible assets were based on valuations using a discounted cash flow model which requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating future revenues, future costs, and an applicable discount rate. The excess of the purchase price over the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill. The purchase price allocation is considered preliminary, and additional adjustments may be recorded during the measurement period as we receive additional information relevant to the value of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

The following table sets forth the preliminary purchase price allocation for ServiceMax. We have also recorded a liability of $620.0 million related to the fair value of the $650.0 million deferred purchase price payment.

(in thousands)
Goodwill(1)	$	979,349
Customer relationships		509,200
Purchased software		106,900
Accounts receivable		58,722
Trademarks		9,000
Other net assets		5,540
Net tax liability(1)		(122,654	)
Deferred revenue		(97,829	)
Total	$	1,448,228

(1) Includes a measurement period adjustment of $4.2 million to Goodwill and $(4.2) million to Net tax liability in the third quarter of 2023 related to deferred tax liabilities.

The acquired customer relationships, purchased software, and trademarks are being amortized over useful lives of 19 years, 10 years, and 10 years, respectively, based on the expected economic benefit pattern of the assets. The acquired goodwill will not be deductible for income tax purposes. The amount of goodwill resulting from purchase price allocation reflects expected future growth as ServiceMax expands our closed-loop product lifecycle management (PLM) strategy.

Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information

The unaudited pro forma financial information in the table below summarizes the combined results of operations for PTC and ServiceMax. The unaudited pro forma financial information for all periods presented includes adjustments to reflect certain business combination effects, including: amortization of acquired intangible assets, including the elimination of related ServiceMax expenses; acquisition-related costs incurred by both parties; reversal of certain costs incurred by ServiceMax which would not have been incurred had the acquisition occurred at the beginning of fiscal 2022; interest expense under the new combined capital structure; stock-based compensation charges; and the related tax effects as though ServiceMax was acquired as of the beginning of fiscal 2022. The unaudited pro forma financial information as presented below is for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved if the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of fiscal 2022.

The unaudited pro forma financial information for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 presented below combines the historical results of PTC for those periods and the historical results of ServiceMax for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2022, respectively, and the effects of the pro forma adjustments listed above.

(in thousands)	Pro forma three months ended				Pro forma nine months ended
	June 30, 2023		June 30, 2022		June 30, 2023		June 30, 2022

Net income	$	61,398	$	59,905	$	193,834	$	136,495

The impact from acquisitions other than ServiceMax for the reported periods if presented on a pro forma basis would not differ materially from our reported results.

7. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Our reporting units are the same as our operating segments. In the third quarter of 2023, we reevaluated our operating segments to better align with how our chief operating decision maker ("CODM") evaluates performance and allocates resources, which resulted in a change from two operating segments—Software Products and Professional Services—to a single operating segment. As part of this reevaluation, we determined that our reporting unit is the same as our operating segment.

Before combining the reporting units, we performed a step zero qualitative assessment of the Software Products reporting unit and a step one quantitative assessment of the Professional Services reporting unit. As of June 30, 2023 and prior to the reporting unit change, goodwill attributable to the Software Products segment was $3,367.5 million and to the Professional Services segment was $9.8 million.

Our qualitative assessment for Software Products included company-specific (e.g., financial performance and long-range plans), industry, and macroeconomic factors, as well as consideration of the fair value of the reporting unit relative to its carrying value at the last valuation date (June 27, 2020). Based on our qualitative assessment, we believe it is more likely than not that the fair value of our Software Products reporting unit exceeds its carrying value and no further impairment testing is required.

Our quantitative assessment for Professional Services compared the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. We estimated the fair value of the Professional Services reporting unit using a discounted cash flow valuation model. This model requires estimates of future revenues, profits, capital expenditures, working capital, and a terminal value based on a residual cash flow valuation model. We estimated this amount by evaluating historical trends, current budgets and operating plans. Based on a comparison of the estimated fair value to the carrying value of the Professional Services reporting unit as of June 30, 2023, no impairment was required.

Table of Contents

After combining the reporting units, we performed a step zero qualitative assessment on the combined goodwill balance and determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the combined reporting unit exceeds its carrying value and no further impairment testing is required.

8. Fair Value Measurements

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.

Table of Contents

Time deposits and corporate notes/bonds are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued based on quoted market prices in active markets.

The principal market in which we execute our foreign currency derivatives is the institutional market in an over-the-counter environment with a relatively high level of price transparency. The market participants usually are large financial institutions. Our foreign currency derivatives’ valuation inputs are based on quoted prices and quoted pricing intervals from public data sources and do not involve management judgment. These contracts are typically classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Our significant financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 were as follows:

Level 3 Investments

Convertible Note

In the fourth quarter of 2021, we invested $2.0 million in a non-marketable convertible note. This debt security is classified as available-for-sale and is included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. There were no changes in the fair value of this level 3 investment in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023.

Non-Marketable Equity Investments

The carrying value of our non-marketable equity investments is recorded in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and totaled $6.1 million as of June 30, 2023 and $1.0 million as of September 30, 2022.

Equity Securities

During the nine months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized a loss of $34.8 million in Other income (expense), net related to fluctuations in the value of equity securities we held in Matterport, Inc. All shares owned in Matterport were sold in the second quarter of 2022 for an aggregate price of $42.7 million. We did not hold any equity securities as of June 30, 2023 or September 30, 2022.

9. Derivative Financial Instruments

We enter into derivative transactions, specifically foreign currency forward contracts and options, to manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk in order to reduce earnings volatility. We do not enter into derivative transactions for trading or speculative purposes.

The following table shows our derivative instruments measured at gross fair value as reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets:

(in thousands)	Fair Value of Derivatives Designated As Hedging Instruments				Fair Value of Derivatives Not Designated As Hedging Instruments

(1) As of June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, current derivative assets of $2.3 million and $9.1 million, respectively, are recorded in Other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(2) As of June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, current derivative liabilities of $1.5 million and $2.9 million, respectively, are recorded in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Non-Designated Hedges

We hedge our net foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities primarily resulting from foreign currency denominated receivables and payables with foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the risk that our earnings and cash flows will be adversely affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These contracts have maturities of up to approximately three months. Generally, we do not designate these foreign currency forward contracts as hedges for accounting purposes and changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized immediately in earnings. Because we enter into forward contracts only as an economic hedge, any gain or loss on the underlying foreign-denominated balance would be offset by the loss or gain on the forward contract. Gains and losses on forward contracts and foreign denominated receivables and payables are included in Other income (expense), net.

We hedge our forecasted U.S. Dollar cash flows with foreign exchange options to reduce the risk that they will be adversely affected by changes in Euro or Japanese Yen exchange rates. These contracts have maturities of up to approximately nine months. We do not designate these foreign currency options as hedges for accounting purposes and changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized immediately in earnings. Because we enter into options as an economic hedge, currency impacts on the Euro or Japanese Yen-denominated operations as compared to the forecasted plan rate may be partially offset by the gain on the put option. Gain on put options are included in Other income (expense), net.

(2) As of June 30, 2023, $1.5 million of the Japanese Yen to U.S. Dollar outstanding notional amount relates to forward contracts and $10.9 million relates to options. As of September 30, 2022, all the Japanese Yen to U.S. Dollar outstanding notional amount relates to forward contracts.

The following table shows the effect of our non-designated hedges in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022:

In the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, foreign currency gains, net were $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively. In the nine months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, foreign currency losses, net were $3.4 million and $3.1 million, respectively.

Net Investment Hedges

We translate balance sheet accounts of subsidiaries with foreign functional currencies into the U.S. Dollar using the exchange rate at each balance sheet date. Resulting translation adjustments are reported as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We designate certain foreign exchange forward contracts as net investment hedges against exposure on translation of balance sheet accounts of Euro and Japanese Yen functional subsidiaries. Net investment hedges partially offset the impact of foreign currency translation adjustment recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. All foreign exchange forward contracts are carried at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the maximum duration of net investment hedge foreign exchange forward contracts is approximately three months.

Table of Contents

Net investment hedge relationships are designated at inception, and effectiveness is assessed retrospectively on a quarterly basis using the net equity position of Euro and Japanese Yen functional subsidiaries. As the forward contracts are highly effective in offsetting exchange rate exposure, we record changes in these net investment hedges in Accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently reclassify them to foreign currency translation adjustment in Accumulated other comprehensive loss at the time of forward contract maturity. Changes in the fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts due to changes in time value are excluded from the assessment of effectiveness. Our derivatives are not subject to any credit contingent features. We manage credit risk with counterparties by trading among several counterparties and we review our counterparties’ credit at least quarterly.

As of June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, we had outstanding forward contracts designated as net investment hedges with notional amounts equivalent to the following:

Currency Hedged (in thousands)	June 30,<br>2023		September 30,<br>2022
Euro / U.S. Dollar	$	236,246	$	110,466

As of June 30, 2023, we estimate that all amounts reported in Accumulated other comprehensive loss will be applied against exposed balance sheet accounts upon translation within the next three months.

Offsetting Derivative Assets and Liabilities

We have entered into master netting arrangements for our forward contracts that allow net settlements under certain conditions. Although netting is permitted, it is currently our policy and practice to record all derivative assets and liabilities on a gross basis in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

10. Segment Information

In the third quarter of 2023, we reevaluated our operating segments to better align with how our CODM, who is our Chief Executive Officer, evaluates performance and allocates resources. The key factors evaluated included our organization structure, financial results reviewed by the CODM, and compensation structure, among others. As a result, we consolidated our operating segment structure from two segments to one. This change reflects our strategy to focus our professional services business on high-value services and to leverage partners to provide services, while delivering products that require fewer consulting and training services. Based on this change, we determined we have a single reportable segment.

11. Income Taxes

(in thousands)	Three months ended						Nine months ended
	June 30,<br>2023			June 30,<br>2022			June 30,<br>2023			June 30,<br>2022
Income before income taxes	$	76,526		$	100,778		$	244,019		$	259,720
Provision for income taxes	$	15,128		$	30,302		$	44,082		$	53,476
Effective income tax rate		20	%		30	%		18	%		21	%

The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 was lower than the effective tax rate for the corresponding prior-year periods primarily due to $8.1 million of tax expense in the quarter ended June 30, 2022 arising from the basis difference on goodwill related to the sale of a portion of our PLM business.

In the normal course of business, PTC and its subsidiaries are examined by various taxing authorities, including the Internal Revenue Service in the U.S. We regularly assess the likelihood of additional assessments by tax authorities and provide for these matters as appropriate. We are currently under audit by tax authorities in several jurisdictions. Audits by tax authorities typically involve examination of the deductibility of certain permanent items, transfer pricing, limitations on net operating losses and tax credits.

Total debt, net of issuance costs	$	1,738,241		$	1,350,628

(1) Unamortized debt issuance costs related to the credit facility were $2.3 million included in Other current assets and $8.1 million included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2023 and $2.7 million included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2022.

(2) Both the revolving line and the term loan will mature and all amounts then outstanding will become due and payable on January 3, 2028, unless the 2025 notes have not been refinanced to mature on or after April 3, 2028, in which case the amounts will become due on November 16, 2024. The term loan will begin amortizing in March 2024, with payments of $9.4 million in 2024, $21.9 million in 2025, and $25.0 million in each year thereafter.

(3) Unamortized debt issuance costs for the senior notes are included in Long-term debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Senior Unsecured Notes

In February 2020, we issued $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.0% senior, unsecured long-term debt at par value, due in 2028 (the 2028 notes) and $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 3.625% senior, unsecured long-term debt at par value, due in 2025 (the 2025 notes).

As of June 30, 2023, the total estimated fair value of the 2028 and 2025 notes was approximately $463.8 million and $482.7 million, respectively, based on quoted prices for the notes on that date.

We were in compliance with all the covenants for all our senior notes as of June 30, 2023.

Credit Agreement

In January 2023, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement for a new secured multi-currency bank credit facility with a syndicate of banks. Pursuant to the agreement, all prior revolving commitments under the prior credit agreement were replaced with the revolving commitments under the new credit facility. The new credit facility consists of (i) a $1.25 billion revolving credit facility, (ii) a $500 million term loan credit facility, and (iii) an incremental facility pursuant to which we may incur additional term loan tranches or increase the revolving credit facility. As of June 30, 2023, unused commitments under our credit facility were approximately $1,005 million.

As of June 30, 2023, the fair value of our credit facility approximates its book value.

PTC and certain eligible foreign subsidiaries are eligible borrowers under the credit facility. Any borrowings by PTC Inc. under the credit facility would be guaranteed by PTC Inc.’s material domestic subsidiaries that become parties to the subsidiary guaranty, if any. As of the filing of this Form 10-Q, ServiceMax, Inc. was the only subsidiary guarantor. Any borrowings by eligible foreign subsidiary borrowers would be guaranteed by PTC Inc. and any subsidiary guarantors and secured, subject to exceptions, by a first priority perfected security interest in substantially all existing and after-acquired personal property owned by PTC and its material domestic subsidiaries (except for certain indirect material domestic subsidiaries). As of the filing of this Form 10-Q, no funds were borrowed by an eligible foreign subsidiary borrower.

Loans under the credit facility bear interest at variable rates that reset every 30 to

180

days depending on the base rate (for USD borrowings, either the adjusted Daily Simple RFR or adjusted Term SOFR) and period selected by us. The spread over the base rate depends on our total leverage ratio. As 18

Table of Contents

of June 30, 2023, the annual rate for borrowings outstanding was 6.93%. A quarterly revolving commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the revolving credit facility is required, ranging from 0.175% to 0.325% per annum, based upon our total leverage ratio.

The credit facility limits our ability to, among other things: incur additional indebtedness; incur liens or guarantee obligations; pay dividends and make other distributions; make investments and enter into joint ventures; dispose of assets; and engage in transactions with affiliates, except on an arms-length basis. Under the credit facility, PTC Inc. and its material domestic subsidiaries may not invest cash or property in, or loan amounts to, PTC’s foreign subsidiaries in aggregate amounts exceeding $100 million for purposes other than acquisitions of businesses. The credit facility also requires that we maintain certain financial ratios.

As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all financial and operating covenants of the credit facility.

In the first nine months of 2023, we incurred $13.4 million in financing costs in connection with the January 2023 credit facility and related arrangements, of which $4.2 million (related to a since-extinguished bridge loan) was expensed in the period and $9.2 million is recorded as deferred debt issuance costs and included in Other assets and Other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Deferred debt issuance costs are expensed over the term of the obligations.

Interest

In the third quarter and first nine months of 2023, we incurred interest expense on our debt of $35.8 million and $93.7 million, respectively, and $13.8 million and $39.0 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, respectively. Interest expense in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 includes $10.0 million and $20.0 million, respectively, of interest associated with the $620.0 million fair value of a $650.0 million deferred acquisition payment related to the ServiceMax acquisition. In the third quarter and first nine months of 2023, we paid $22.6 million and $51.9 million of interest on our debt, respectively, and $2.1 million and $25.9 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, respectively. The average interest rate on borrowings outstanding was approximately 5.2% and 4.8% during the third quarter and first nine months of 2023, respectively, and 3.4% and 3.3% during the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, respectively.

13. Commitments and Contingencies

Guarantees and Indemnification Obligations

We enter into standard indemnification agreements with our customers and business partners in the ordinary course of our business. Under such agreements, we typically indemnify, hold harmless, and agree to reimburse the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party, in connection with patent, copyright or other intellectual property infringement claims by any third party with respect to our products. Indemnification may also cover other types of claims, including claims relating to certain data breaches. These agreements typically limit our liability with respect to indemnification claims other than intellectual property infringement claims. Historically, our costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims relating to such indemnity agreements have been minimal and, accordingly, we believe the estimated fair value of liabilities under these agreements is immaterial.

We warrant that our software products will perform in all material respects in accordance with our standard published specifications during the term of the license. Additionally, we generally warrant that our consulting services will be performed consistent with generally accepted industry standards and, in the case of fixed price services, the agreed-upon specifications. In most cases, liability for these warranties is capped. If necessary, we would provide for the estimated cost of product and service warranties based on specific warranty claims and claim history; however, we have not incurred significant cost under our product or services warranties. As a result, we believe the estimated fair value of these liabilities is immaterial.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this document that are not historic facts, including statements about our future financial and growth expectations and potential stock repurchases, are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These risks include: the macroeconomic and/or global manufacturing climates may deteriorate due to, among other factors, supply chain disruptions, increasing interest rates and inflation, volatile foreign exchange rates and the relative strength of the U.S. dollar, tightening of credit standards and availability, the effects of the Russia/Ukraine conflict, including the effect on energy supplies to Europe, and growing tensions with China, any of which could cause customers to delay or reduce purchases of new software, reduce the number of subscriptions they carry, or delay payments to us, which would adversely affect ARR and/or our financial results, including cash flow; our businesses, including our ServiceMax and SaaS businesses, may not expand and/or generate the ARR and/or cash flow we expect if customers are slower to adopt those technologies than we expect or if they adopt competing technologies; our strategic initiatives and investments, including our accelerated investments in our transition to SaaS and the acquisition of ServiceMax, may not deliver the results when or as we expect; we may be unable to integrate the ServiceMax technology when or as we expect; we may be unable to generate sufficient operating cash flow to return 50% of free cash flow to shareholders via share repurchases, and other uses of cash or our credit facility limits could preclude such repurchases; and foreign exchange rates may differ materially from those we expect. In addition, our assumptions concerning our future GAAP and non-GAAP effective income tax rates are based on estimates and other factors that could change, including the geographic mix of our revenue, expenses, and profits. Other risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected are described below throughout or referenced in Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors of this report.

Operating and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our discussion of results includes discussion of our ARR (Annual Run Rate) operating measure, non-GAAP financial measures, and disclosure of our results on a constant currency basis. ARR and our non-GAAP financial measures, including the reasons we use those measures, are described below in Results of Operations - Operating Measure and Results of Operations - Non-GAAP Financial Measures, respectively. The methodology used to calculate constant currency disclosures is described in Results of Operations - Impact of Foreign Currency Exchange on Results of Operations. You should read those sections to understand our operating measure, non-GAAP financial measures, and constant currency disclosures.

Executive Overview

ARR grew 25% to $1.93 billion as of the end of Q3’23 compared to Q3’22. Organic ARR grew 14% year over year to $1.76 billion. ARR growth was driven by the contribution from the ServiceMax business acquired in Q2'23 and solid growth in both the CAD and PLM product groups.

We generated $169 million of cash from operations in Q3’23 compared to $117 million in Q3’22, an increase of 45% that was driven by continued strong execution, based on a foundation of solid collections and cost discipline. Interest payments were $21 million higher in Q3'23 compared to Q3'22, while restructuring payments and acquisition- and transaction-related cash outflows decreased $17 million in Q3'23 compared to Q3'22. Free cash flow of $164 million in Q3'23 increased 46% from $112 million in Q3'22.

Revenue growth of 17% (21% constant currency) in Q3'23 compared to Q3'22 was primarily due to the contribution from ServiceMax. We incurred higher interest expense in the period related to the ServiceMax acquisition, which adversely affected our net income and earnings per share results.

Impact of Foreign Currency Exchange on Results of Operations

Approximately 45% of our revenue and 35% of our expenses are transacted in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. Because we report our results of operations in U.S. Dollars, currency translation, particularly changes in the Euro, Yen, Shekel, and Rupee relative to the U.S. Dollar, affects our reported results. Our constant currency disclosures are calculated by multiplying the results in local currency for the quarterly periods for FY’23 and FY’22 by the exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2022.

If reported results for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 were converted into U.S. dollars based on September 30, 2022 exchange rates, ARR would have been lower by $61 million, revenue would have been lower by $41 million, and expenses would have been lower by $17 million. If reported results for the same period in FY'22 were converted into U.S. dollars based on September 30, 2022 exchange rates, ARR would have been lower by $49 million, revenue would have been lower by $102 million, and expenses would have been lower by $44 million.

Revenue

Under ASC 606, the volume, mix, and duration of contract types (support, SaaS, on-premises subscription) starting or renewing in any given period can have a material impact on revenue in the period, and as a result can impact the comparability of reported revenue period over period. We recognize revenue for the license portion of on-premises subscription contracts up front when we deliver the licenses to the customer, typically on the start date, and we recognize revenue on the support portion of on-premises subscription contracts and stand-alone support contracts ratably over the term. We continue to convert existing support contracts to on-premises subscriptions, resulting in a shift to up-front recognition of on-premises subscription license revenue in the period converted compared to ratable recognition for a perpetual support contract. Revenue from our cloud services (primarily SaaS) contracts is recognized ratably. We expect that over time a higher portion of our revenue will be recognized ratably as we expand our SaaS offerings, release additional cloud functionality into our products, and customers migrate from on-premises subscriptions to SaaS. Given the different mix, duration and volume of new and renewing contracts in any period, year-over-year or sequential revenue comparisons can vary significantly.

Total revenue	$	542.3	$	462.5		17	%		21	%	$	1,550.4	$	1,425.4		9	%		14	%

Software revenue in Q3'23 and the first nine months of FY'23 benefited from contributions from ServiceMax, as well as from Codebeamer, which was acquired in Q3'22. The decline in the value of foreign currencies compared to the U.S. Dollar was a headwind to year-over-year revenue growth.

Within software revenue, license revenue is impacted by the quantity and size of expiring and renewing multi-year on-premises subscription contracts along with the duration of those contracts that start in the period. In Q3’23, the weighted-average duration of contracts starting in the quarter was substantially similar to Q3'22 with duration increases in the Americas offset by duration decreases in Europe. However, durations were lower in the first nine months of FY'23 compared to FY'22. The FY'23 decrease was primarily due to a few high-value renewal contracts in FY'22 that had longer than typical durations. Because longer duration contracts typically have a higher total contract value, which drives the amount of license revenue recognized on on-premises contracts, this year-over-year duration decrease represented a headwind to license revenue growth in the first nine months of FY'23.

Table of Contents

Professional services revenue decreased in Q3'23 and the first nine months of FY’23 as we continue to execute on our strategy of leveraging partners to deliver services rather than contracting to deliver services ourselves, including the Q3'22 sale of a portion of our PLM services business to ITC Infotech. The decline in the value of foreign currencies compared to the U.S. Dollar also contributed to the year-over-year revenue decline. These decreases were partially offset by ServiceMax professional services revenue.

Our expectation is that professional services revenue will continue to trend down over time as we execute on our partner strategy and deliver products that require less consulting and training services.

PLM software revenue growth in Q3'23 and the first nine months of FY’23 benefited from contributions from ServiceMax (acquired early in Q2'23) and Codebeamer (acquired in Q3’22). The decline in the value of foreign currencies compared to the U.S. Dollar was a headwind to year-over-year revenue growth. Excluding contributions from ServiceMax and Codebeamer, constant currency revenue growth was driven by Windchill and IIoT in the Americas, offset by a decrease in Windchill revenue in Europe due to shorter durations of on-premises subscription contracts.

PLM ARR grew 36% (actual and constant currency) from Q3’22 to Q3'23, driven by ServiceMax, Windchill and IIoT.

CAD software revenue in Q3'23 and the first nine months of FY'23 was negatively impacted by a decline in the value of foreign currencies compared to the U.S. Dollar. The constant currency revenue growth was driven by Creo revenue in the Americas, offset by a decrease in Creo revenue in Europe due to shorter durations of on-premises subscription contracts.

CAD ARR grew 11% (actual and constant currency) from Q3’22 to Q3’23, driven by Creo.

(1) Non-GAAP financial measures are reconciled to GAAP results under Non-GAAP Financial Measures below.

License gross margin increased in Q3’23 compared to Q3’22 due mainly to higher license revenue. License gross margin decreased in the first nine months of FY’23 compared to the corresponding FY’22 period due to increases in cost of license driven by higher royalty expense while license revenue remained flat.

Support and cloud services gross margin increased in the third quarter and first nine months of FY’23 compared to the corresponding FY’22 periods due to increases in support and cloud services revenue, partially offset by increases in cost of support and cloud services, which were driven by higher royalty expenses, compensation costs, higher intangible amortization expense due to the ServiceMax acquisition, and cloud hosting costs.

Professional services gross margin decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of FY’23 compared to the corresponding FY’22 periods due to decreases in professional services revenue, offset by a decrease in professional services costs in the first nine months of FY’23. The decreases in professional services revenue are mainly due to the sale of a portion of our services business in FY'22 and our continued execution on our strategy of leveraging partners to deliver services rather than contracting to deliver services ourselves.

Headcount increased 11% between Q3’22 and Q3’23, primarily driven by our acquisition of ServiceMax.

Operating expenses in Q3'23 increased compared to Q3'22, primarily due to the following:

• a $30 million increase in compensation expense (including stock-based compensation and benefit costs) primarily due to our acquisition of ServiceMax; and

• an $8 million increase in marketing expense primarily due to our Q3'23 LiveWorx event.

Operating expenses in the first nine months of FY’23 increased compared to the first nine months of FY’22, due to the following:

• a $57 million increase in compensation expense (including stock-based compensation and benefit costs) primarily due to our acquisition of ServiceMax; and

• an $11 million increase in marketing expense primarily due to our Q3'23 LiveWorx event;

partially offset by:

• a $37 million decrease in restructuring and other charges.

Interest Expense

(Dollar amounts in millions)	Three months ended									Nine months ended
	June 30, 2023			June 30, 2022			Percent Change			June 30, 2023			June 30, 2022			Percent Change
Interest and debt premium expense	$	(35.8	)	$	(13.8	)		160	%	$	(93.7	)	$	(39.0	)		140	%

Interest expense includes interest on our credit facility and senior notes and imputed interest on the ServiceMax deferred acquisition payment. The increase in interest expense was driven by higher total debt and higher interest rates in Q3’23 compared to Q3’22, as well as the imputed interest on the ServiceMax deferred acquisition payment.

The decrease in Other income (expense), net, in Q3’23 was driven by a recognized gain on the sale of a portion of our PLM services business of $29.8 million in Q3’22 and a $3.0 million gain on the sale of an investment in Q3'22. In addition, net charges for the first nine months of FY'22 include a recognized loss on our equity investment in a publicly-traded company of $34.8 million.

Income Taxes

Effective income tax rate		20	%		30	%					18	%		21	%

The effective tax rate for Q3'23 and the first nine months of FY'23 was lower than the effective tax rate for the corresponding FY’22 periods primarily due to $8.1 million of tax expense in Q3'22 arising from the basis difference on goodwill related to the sale of a portion of our PLM business in that period.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The financial information included in Item 1 reflects no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates as set forth under the heading Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

As discussed in Note 1. Basis of Presentation to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material effect on our financial statements or results.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

We invest our cash with highly rated financial institutions. Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Table of Contents

A significant portion of our cash is generated and held outside the U.S. As of June 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $13.6 million in the U.S., $123.9 million in Europe, $119.3 million in Asia Pacific (including India) and $24.7 million in other non-U.S. countries. We have substantial cash requirements in the U.S. but believe that the combination of our existing U.S. cash and cash equivalents, our ability to repatriate cash to the U.S., future U.S. operating cash flows, and cash available under our credit facility will be sufficient to meet our ongoing U.S. operating expenses and known capital requirements.

Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities increased $164.3 million in the first nine months of FY’23 compared to the first nine months of FY’22. The increase was driven by an increase in collections, including contributions from ServiceMax, and lower restructuring payments, partially offset by increases in salary-related payments and vendor disbursements driven by the ServiceMax acquisition and higher interest payments. Cash from operations for the first nine months of FY'23 includes $1.4 million of restructuring payments and $9.3 million of acquisition and transaction-related payments compared to $38.5 million of restructuring payments and $10.1 million of acquisition and transaction-related payments in the prior-year period. Cash from operations for the first nine months of FY'23 includes $51.9 million of interest payments, compared to $25.9 million in the prior-year period.

Cash Used In Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities in the first nine months of FY’23 was driven by the acquisition of ServiceMax for $828.2 million in Q2'23. Cash used in investing activities in the first nine months of FY’22 reflects the acquisition of the Codebeamer business for $275 million, offset by $47 million of proceeds from the sale of an investment and $33 million of proceeds from the sale of a portion of our PLM services business.

Cash Provided by (Used In) Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities in the first nine months of FY’23 was primarily related to net new borrowings of $771.0 million (a $500.0 million term loan and a $271.0 million incremental revolving line) to fund the ServiceMax acquisition and repayments of $385.0 million on the new revolving facility. Cash used in financing activities in the first nine months of FY’22 included $125.0 million of repurchases of our common stock.

Outstanding Debt

(in millions)	June 30, 2023
4.000% Senior notes due 2028	$	500.0
3.625% Senior notes due 2025		500.0
Credit facility revolving line		245.0
Credit facility term loan		500.0
Total debt	$	1,745.0
Unamortized debt issuance costs for the senior notes		(6.8	)
Total debt, net of issuance costs	$	1,738.2
Undrawn under credit facility revolving line	$	1,005.0
Undrawn under credit facility revolving line available to borrow	$	341.2

In addition to the debt shown in the above table, we have recorded a $620.0 million deferred acquisition payment liability related to the fair value of the $650.0 million installment due in October 2023 for the ServiceMax acquisition. Of the $650 million to be paid, $620 million will be a financing outflow and $30 million of imputed interest will be an operating cash outflow.

As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all financial and operating covenants of the credit facility and the note indentures.

Table of Contents

Our credit facility and our senior notes are described in Note 12. Debt to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Future Expectations

We believe that existing cash and cash equivalents, together with cash generated from operations and amounts available under the credit facility, will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements (expected capital expenditures of approximately $2 million in Q4'23) through at least the next twelve months and to meet our known capital requirements.

During the remainder of FY'23 and in FY'24, we expect to use a substantial portion of our cash generated from operating activities to repay debt outstanding under our credit facility revolving line and to make the deferred ServiceMax acquisition payment. We expect that we will not repurchase shares in the remainder of FY'23 or in FY'24 as we seek to reduce our debt.

Our expected uses and sources of cash could change, our cash position could be reduced, and we could incur additional debt obligations if we decide to retire debt, engage in strategic transactions, or repurchase shares, any of which could be commenced, suspended or completed at any time. Any such repurchases or retirement of debt will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved in any debt retirement or issuance, share repurchases, or strategic transactions may be material.

Operating Measure

ARR

ARR (Annual Run Rate) represents the annualized value of our portfolio of active subscription software, cloud, SaaS, and support contracts as of the end of the reporting period. We calculate ARR as follows:

• We consider a contract to be active when the product or service contractual term commences (the “start date”) until the right to use the product or service ends (the “expiration date”). Even if the contract with the customer is executed before the start date, the contract will not count toward ARR until the customer right to receive the benefit of the products or services has commenced.

• For contracts that include annual values that increase over time, which we refer to as ramp contracts, we include in ARR only the annualized value of components of the contract that are considered active as of the date of the ARR calculation. We do not include any future committed increases in the contract value as of the date of the ARR calculation.

• As ARR includes only contracts that are active at the end of the reporting period, ARR does not reflect assumptions or estimates regarding future customer renewals or non-renewals.

• Active contracts are annualized by dividing the total active contract value by the contract duration in days (expiration date minus start date), then multiplying that by 365 days (or 366 days for leap years).

We believe ARR is a valuable operating measure to assess the health of a subscription business because it is aligned with the amount that we invoice the customer on an annual basis. We generally invoice customers annually for the current year of the contract. A customer with a one-year contract will typically be invoiced for the total value of the contract at the beginning of the contractual term, while a customer with a multi-year contract will be invoiced for each annual period at the beginning of each year of the contract.

ARR increases by the annualized value of active contracts that commence in a reporting period and decreases by the annualized value of contracts that expire in the reporting period.

Table of Contents

As ARR is not annualized recurring revenue, it is not calculated based on recognized or unearned revenue and is not affected by variability in the timing of revenue under ASC 606, particularly for on-premises license subscriptions where a substantial portion of the total value of the contract is recognized at a point in time upon the later of when the software is made available, or the subscription term commences.

ARR should be viewed independently of recognized and unearned revenue and is not intended to be combined with, or to replace, either of those items. Investors should consider our ARR operating measure only in conjunction with our GAAP financial results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our non-GAAP financial measures and the reasons we use them and the reasons we exclude the items identified below are described in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2022.

The non-GAAP financial measures presented in the discussion of our results of operations and the respective most directly comparable GAAP measures are:

• free cash flow—cash flow from operations

• non-GAAP gross margin—GAAP gross margin

• non-GAAP operating income—GAAP operating income

• non-GAAP operating margin—GAAP operating margin

• non-GAAP net income—GAAP net income

• non-GAAP diluted earnings per share—GAAP diluted earnings per share

The non-GAAP financial measures other than free cash flow exclude, as applicable, stock-based compensation expense; amortization of acquired intangible assets; acquisition and transaction-related charges included in general and administrative expenses; restructuring and other charges (credits), net; significant non-ordinary course non-operating charges (credits), including those associated with the sale of a portion of our PLM services business and gains or losses on equity investments; and income tax adjustments as defined in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022.

The items excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures often have a material impact on our financial results, certain of those items are recurring, and other such items often recur. Accordingly, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, the comparable measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following tables reconcile each of these non-GAAP financial measures to its most closely comparable GAAP measure on our financial statements.

(1) In the nine months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized $4.2 million of financing charges for a debt commitment agreement associated with our acquisition of ServiceMax. Credits for Q3'22 include a $29.8 million gain on the sale of a portion of our PLM services business, and a $3.0 million gain on sale of an investment. Net charges for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 include a $34.8 million expense recognized due to the reduction in value of an equity investment in a publicly-traded company, offset by a $29.8 million gain on the sale of a portion of our PLM services business, and a $3.0 million gain on sale of an investment.

(2) Income tax adjustments reflect the tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments which are calculated by applying the applicable tax rate by jurisdiction to the non-GAAP adjustments listed above. In Q3'22, adjustments include tax expense of $15.5 million related to the sale of our PLM service business, of which $8.1 million pertains to the basis difference on goodwill.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no significant changes in our market risk exposure as described in Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk of our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management maintains disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is processed, recorded, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2023.

Management excluded ServiceMax from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2023 because it was acquired in a business combination in the current fiscal year. ServiceMax's total assets and total revenues represent approximately 2% (excluding the impact of goodwill and intangibles from the acquisition) and 9%, respectively, of our total assets and total revenues, as of and for the nine months ended June 30, 2023.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management's evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the period ended June 30, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
