Q3 FY26 earnings call · Jul 29, 2026TL;DR. PTC reported Q3 FY26 results exceeding the high end of guidance across ARR (constant currency ARR excluding divested businesses up 9.1%), operating cash flow, and free cash flow, with net new ARR of $60M in Q3 and the upper half of Q4 guidance also above historical levels. The company raised full-year FY26 guidance for ARR (now 9% to 9.5% growth), revenue ($2,690M to $2,750M), and EPS ($8.46 to $9.18 GAAP), and repurchased ~$525M of stock in Q3, bringing FY26 repurchases above the high end of target. Offsetting positives, reported revenue declined 7% YoY to $600M and operating margin contracted 480 bps to 28%, partly reflecting the Kepware/ThingWorx divestiture.
- + Q3 constant currency ARR excluding divested businesses grew 9.1%, exceeding the high end of 8% to 9% guidance.
- + Q3 net new ARR of $60M and upper half of Q4 net new ARR guidance are above prior-year levels.
- + PTC repurchased ~$525M of stock in Q3, bringing FY26 repurchases above the high end of its target.
- + Deferred ARR is approximately 2x prior-year levels entering FY27, supporting a stronger FY27 setup.
- − Q3 reported revenue declined 7% YoY to $600M (down 8% in constant currency).
- − FY26 GAAP operating expenses expected to rise ~4%, driven by divestiture-related expenses.
- − Management views standalone AI monetization as a medium- to longer-term opportunity, not near-term revenue.

Capital returns
Dividends per share over the trailing 365 days by ex-date · buyback figures as last reported in SEC filings ("spent" derived as authorized − remaining; when several programs run concurrently, authorized is their combined total per the newest filing) · components shown separately — trailing-year buyback spend isn't tracked, so no combined shareholder yield is derived.
