Second Quarter Fiscal 2014 Overview

Our second quarter was marked by strength in our Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) business segment and continued growth in suites, and steady customer adoption of our cloud and mobile solutions. Growth in these vital areas was offset by mixed contributions from other parts of our business.

Second quarter performance included:

Revenue decreased 1 percent to $562 million, compared to the second quarter last year and 2 percent compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

GAAP operating margin was 15 percent, compared to 16 percent in the second quarter last year and 14 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

Non-GAAP operating margin decreased approximately 100 basis points to 24 percent, compared to 25 percent in the second quarter last year and 24 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

GAAP diluted earnings per share were $0.27, compared to $0.28 in the second quarter last year and $0.24 in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share were $0.45, compared to $0.48 in the second quarter last year and $0.42 in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

Deferred revenue increased 7 percent to $806 million, compared to $752 million in the second quarter last year and decreased 5 percent compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

Cash flow from operating activities was $65 million, compared to $107 million in the second quarter last year and $224 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

___________
(1) Totals may not agree with the sum of the components due to rounding.
(2) Effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2014, Autodesk reclassified certain revenue associated with cloud service offerings from
"License and Other Revenue" to "Subscription Revenue." Prior period amounts have been revised to conform to the current period
presentation. Subscription revenue includes maintenance and cloud-based revenue.

Total net revenue for the second quarter decreased 1 percent to $562 million, as compared to the second quarter last year as reported, and increased 2 percent on a constant currency basis. Total net revenue for the second quarter decreased 2 percent sequentially as reported, and 1 percent on a constant currency basis.

As a reminder, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, Autodesk executed a promotion which pulled forward approximately $24 million in revenue from the first half of fiscal 2014.

At the start of the fiscal year we made a strategic decision to begin shifting our education business from selling to granting our software licenses in select regions and to key partners.  We plan to expand upon this transition  over time. The net financial impact of this change is a drag of approximately 2 percentage points of total revenue growth for the second quarter, with particular impact in the Americas.

License and other revenue decreased 6 percent to $313 million, as compared to the second quarter last year, and 3 percent sequentially.

Subscription revenue increased 6 percent to $249 million, as compared to the second quarter last year, and 1 percent sequentially.

Net subscription billings (includes maintenance and cloud service billings) decreased 17 percent compared to the second quarter last year. The decrease is related primarily to a decrease in multi-year maintenance subscriptions as net subscription billings in the second quarter last year benefited from an increase in multi-year renewals related to an impending pricing change.

Net subscription billings (includes maintenance and cloud service billings) decreased 21 percent sequentially. The sequential decrease is related primarily to typical seasonality, as well as a difficult comparison to the first quarter of fiscal 2014, which benefited from increased renewal activity ahead of a pricing change.

Revenue in EMEA decreased 4 percent to $202 million, as compared to the second quarter last year as reported, and was flat on a constant currency basis. EMEA revenue decreased 7 percent sequentially as reported, and 6 percent on a constant currency basis. Year-over-year results were mixed by country.

Revenue in the Americas increased 2 percent to $202 million, as compared to the second quarter last year, and was flat sequentially. Growth in the U.S. was partially offset by a decline in Canada. As noted on page 2, revenue in the Americas was impacted by a decrease in revenue from the education vertical. Normalizing for the change, revenue in the Americas experienced solid year-over-year growth.

Revenue in Asia Pacific decreased 1 percent to $158 million, as compared to the second quarter last year as reported, and increased 4 percent on a constant currency basis. Revenue in Asia Pacific increased 4 percent sequentially as reported, and 7 percent on a constant currency basis. Japan, which typically represents approximately 40 percent of Asia Pacific's revenue, experienced strong year-over-year growth on a constant currency basis.

Revenue from emerging economies decreased 2 percent to $86 million, as compared to the second quarter last year as reported, and 1 percent on a constant currency basis. Among the BRIC countries, declines in Russia and India were partially offset by growth in China. Revenue from emerging economies increased 14 percent sequentially as reported, and 15 percent on a constant currency basis.

* The 2013 quarterly product category revenue amounts have been updated to conform with the current period's presentation.

As we have previously discussed, our customers continue to migrate to our Design and Creation Suites. As a result, revenue for many of our stand-alone products is decreasing, which impacts the growth of both Flagship and New and Adjacent categories.

Revenue from Flagship products decreased 11 percent to $289 million, compared to the second quarter last year, and 7 percent sequentially. The year-over-year decline in Flagship was driven by decreases in AutoCAD and AutoCAD Mechanical, reflecting customer migration to our suites and challenging dynamics within our end-markets.

Revenue from Suites was $193 million, or 34 percent of total revenue. Revenue from Suites increased 18 percent compared to the second quarter last year, and 10 percent sequentially. Year-over-year growth was led by AEC suites.

Revenue from New and Adjacent products was $80 million, and decreased 1 percent compared to the second quarter last year, and 3 percent sequentially.

* The 2013 quarterly segment revenue amounts have been updated to conform with the current period's presentation.

Revenue from our Platform Solutions and Emerging Business (PSEB) segment decreased 9 percent to $197 million, compared to the second quarter last year, and 7 percent sequentially. Combined revenue from AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT was $173 million, a decrease of 9 percent compared to the second quarter last year, and 10 percent sequentially. The decrease in AutoCAD in part reflects customer migration to our Design and Creation Suites. The decrease in AutoCAD LT, in part, reflects challenging dynamics within some of the end-markets that we serve. Revenue from PSEB suites decreased 9 percent compared to the second quarter last year, and increased 34 percent sequentially. Year-over-year growth in AutoCAD Suites was strong, while education suites declined, related to our change in strategy within the education vertical (noted on page 2).

Revenue from our AEC business segment increased 9 percent to $177 million, compared to the second quarter last year, and 3 percent sequentially. Revenue from our AEC suites increased 36 percent compared to the second quarter last year, and 13 percent sequentially. Year-over-year growth in AEC was led by growth in the Building Design Suites and Infrastructure Design Suites.

Revenue from our Manufacturing business segment increased 2 percent to $144 million, compared to the second quarter last year, and increased 4 percent sequentially. Revenue from our Manufacturing suites increased 14 percent compared to the second quarter last year, and 4 percent sequentially. The year-over-year growth in our manufacturing segment was primarily the result of growth in manufacturing suites (Product Design Suite and Factory Design Suite), partially offset by declines in stand-alone products.

Revenue from our Media and Entertainment (M&E) business segment decreased 11 percent to $43 million, compared to the second quarter last year and 7 percent sequentially. Revenue from our animation products, including Maya, 3ds Max, and our Entertainment Creation Suites, decreased 10 percent compared to the second quarter last year, and 3 percent sequentially. Revenue from Creative Finishing decreased 14 percent compared to the second quarter last year, and 17 percent sequentially. The decrease in M&E revenue is related primarily to a general decrease in the M&E industry end-market demand, as well as the planned inclusion of our M&E products in other Autodesk industry suites.

Total cash and investments at the end of the second quarter was approximately $2.4 billion. Approximately 75 percent of the total cash and investments is located offshore and will fluctuate subject to business needs.
   
During the second quarter, Autodesk used $111 million to repurchase approximately 3.1 million shares of common stock at an average repurchase price of $36.38 per share. Through this stock repurchase program, Autodesk remains committed to returning excess cash to our stockholders and reducing shares outstanding over time.

Cash flow from operating activities during the second quarter was $65 million, a decrease of 39 percent compared to the second quarter last year and a decrease of 71 percent sequentially. The year-over-year decline is primarily related to the change in deferred revenue balances. The sequential decline is primarily related to a sequential decrease in accounts receivable and deferred revenue balances. For the first half of fiscal 2014, cash flow from operations increased 17 percent, compared to the first half of last last year.
 
Days sales outstanding (DSO) was 49 days, which was a decrease of 9 days as compared to the second quarter last year and an increase of 3 days sequentially. The year-over-year decrease is primarily related to a decrease in maintenance subscription billings. The sequential increase is primarily related to a shift in billings linearity.
       
Deferred revenue was $806 million, an increase of 7 percent compared to the second quarter last year and a decrease of 5 percent sequentially.  The year-over-year increase is primarily related to a net increase in subscription billings over the past four quarters.  The sequential decrease in deferred revenue is primarily related to the sequential decrease in quarterly maintenance subscription billings.

Backlog was $2 million, a decrease of $5 million compared to the second quarter last year and flat sequentially. At the end of the second quarter, channel inventory remained approximately one week.

GAAP gross margin in the second quarter was 88 percent. Non-GAAP gross margin in the second quarter was 90 percent. The year-over-year decrease in both GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin is primarily resulting from lower revenue related to foreign currency exchange headwinds and higher cloud-related costs.

GAAP operating expenses decreased 1 percent year-over-year and 3 percent sequentially. Non-GAAP operating expenses decreased 2 percent year-over-year and 2 percent sequentially. The year-over-year decrease in both GAAP and non-GAAP operating expenses is primarily related to lower employee related costs. The sequential decrease in both GAAP and non-GAAP operating expenses is related to typical seasonality.

GAAP operating margin was 15 percent, a decrease of 150 basis points compared to the second quarter last year. Foreign currency exchange had a negative impact on GAAP operating margin of approximately 170 basis points, compared to the second quarter last year. Non-GAAP operating margin was 24 percent and decreased approximately 100 basis points compared to the second quarter last year. Foreign currency exchange had a negative impact on non-GAAP operating margin of approximately 140 basis points, compared to the second quarter last year. Both the GAAP and non-GAAP year-over-year decrease in operating margin was due primarily to lower revenue related to foreign currency exchange headwinds and increased costs of goods sold.

GAAP operating margin increased approximately 60 basis points sequentially primarily related to decreased employee related costs. Non-GAAP operating margin increased approximately 30 basis points sequentially. primarily related to decreased employee related costs.

The second quarter effective tax rate was 25 percent for both GAAP and non-GAAP results.

GAAP earnings per diluted share for the second quarter were $0.27. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share for the second quarter were $0.45.

The share count used to compute basic net income per share was 223.1 million. The share count used to compute diluted net income per share was 228.3 million.

A complete reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP results is provided in the tables following these prepared remarks.

Business Outlook

The following statements are forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations and assumptions, and involve risks and uncertainties some of which are set forth below. Autodesk's business outlook for the third quarter assumes, among other things, a continuation of the current economic environment and foreign exchange currency rate environment, and interest expense related to Autodesk's $750 million debt offering in December 2012.

Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share exclude $0.11 related to stock-based compensation expense and $0.06 for the amortization of acquisition related intangibles.

The majority of the projected euro, yen and Australian dollar denominated net revenue for our third quarter fiscal 2014 has been hedged, which should materially reduce the impact of currency fluctuations on our third quarter results. However, over an extended period of time, currency fluctuations will increasingly impact our results. We also hedge certain expenses as noted below. We hedge our net exposures using a four quarter rolling layered hedge program. As such, a portion of the projected euro, yen, and Australian dollar denominated net revenue for our fiscal 2014 has been hedged. The closer to the current time period, the more we are hedged. See below for more details on our foreign currency hedging program.

Third quarter fiscal 2014 outlook assumes annual effective tax rates of approximately 23 percent and approximately 25 percent for GAAP and non-GAAP results, respectively. These rates do not include one-time discrete items but do reflect the recently enacted extension of the federal R&D tax credit benefit through December 31, 2013.

Full Year Fiscal 2014

Autodesk is not providing full year fiscal 2014 guidance at this time.

Autodesk’s Foreign Currency Hedging Program and Calculation of Constant Currency Growth

Given continued foreign exchange volatility, we would like to provide a brief summary of how we handle foreign currency exchange hedging as well as a description of how we calculate constant currency growth rates. A few points on our hedging program include:

We do not conduct foreign currency exchange hedging for speculative purposes. The purpose of our hedging program is to reduce risk from foreign denominated cash flows and to partially reduce variability that would otherwise impact our financial results from currency fluctuations.

We utilize cash flow hedges on projected revenue and certain projected operating expenses in major currencies. We hedge our net exposures using a four quarter rolling layered hedge. The closer to the current time period, the more we are hedged.

7




The major currencies we hedge include the euro, yen, pound sterling, Australian dollar, Canadian dollar, and Swiss franc. The euro is the primary exposure for the company.

When we report period-over-period growth rate percentages on a constant currency basis, we attempt to represent the changes in the underlying business operations by eliminating fluctuations caused by changes in foreign currency exchange rates as well as eliminating hedge gains or losses recorded within the current and comparative period. However, when we calculate the foreign currency impact of exchange rates in the current and comparative period on our financial results (See table above in “Foreign Currency Impact” section) we include the U.S. Dollar impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates as well as the impact of gains and losses recorded as a result of our hedging program.

(1) To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, Autodesk provides investors with certain non-GAAP measures including non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP net income per share. These non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted to exclude certain costs, expenses, gains and losses, including stock-based compensation expense, restructuring charges, amortization of purchased intangibles, gain and loss on strategic investments, and related income tax expenses. See our reconciliation of GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP financial measures herein. We believe these exclusions are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our past financial performance and also our prospects for the future, as well as to facilitate comparisons with our historical operating results. These adjustments to our GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of Autodesk's underlying operational results and trends and our marketplace performance. For example, the non-GAAP results are an indication of our baseline performance before gains, losses or other charges that are considered by management to be outside our core operating results. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for our planning and forecasting of future periods. There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures are limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP in the United States. Investors should review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the tables accompanying Autodesk's press release.

Reconciliation for Long Term Operating Margins:
 
 
 
 
 
Autodesk is not able to provide targets for our long term GAAP operating margins at this time because of the difficulty of estimating certain items that are excluded from non-GAAP that affect operating margin, such as charges related to stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquisition related intangibles, the effect of which may be significant.
