Results Commentary

James Heppelmann, president and chief executive officer, commented, “PTC delivered solid operating results, with Q3 revenue at the high end of our guidance range and non-GAAP EPS above our guidance range. License revenue of $93 million increased 15% year over year on a constant currency basis. From a geographic perspective, on a constant currency basis revenue in Japan was up 20%, Europe was up 7%, the Americas were up 1%, and the Pacific Rim was flat.”

Heppelmann added, “We saw strong growth in our core CAD and PLM businesses. CAD license revenue grew 26% year over year on a constant currency basis driven by large deals, new seats, and sales of modules and upgrades associated with our Creo^® platform. Extended PLM license revenue was up 7% year over year on a constant currency basis. License revenue for our SLM business (which includes Enigma and ThingWorx) was flat year over year on a constant currency basis. Our SLM pipeline continues to build and we are optimistic about the growth opportunity going forward. In addition, we continue to see bookings growth in our ThingWorx business. We also believe that the acquisition of Axeda, a leading provider of secure connectivity within the Internet of Things (IoT) space, when completed, will further PTC’s leadership position in the smart, connected products arena.”
