"Our third quarter saw strong growth in suites and solid execution across Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) and Manufacturing," stated Carl Bass, Autodesk's president and CEO. "Global adoption of building information modeling (BIM) drove double-digit growth within our AEC business. Our Manufacturing segment benefited from higher demand for our design and digital manufacturing tools, along with continued momentum in the automotive industry. We continue to witness steady adoption of our new cloud and mobile-based services, which complement our Design and Creation suites." Third Quarter Operational Overview: Revenue in the Americas fell by 1% to $208 million compared to the third quarter last year as reported, but remained flat on a constant currency basis. EMEA revenue rose by 4% to $204 million compared to the third quarter last year as reported, and increased 5% on a constant currency basis.

"While challenges persist in parts of our markets, we continue to be cautious about managing our expenses while making essential investments to drive growth," remarked Mark Hawkins, Autodesk's executive vice president and CFO. "We are observing some modest improvements around the globe and are cautiously optimistic about the current macroeconomic environment." "We are transforming our business to better serve the increasing number of people who rely on Autodesk tools daily and position the company for its next phase of growth," Bass added. "With the recent introduction of more flexible licensing and service offerings, Autodesk will evolve into an even more recurring and ratable revenue business model. Our outlook for the fourth quarter includes a business model transition impact of approximately $50 million in revenue. We anticipate a larger impact in fiscal year 2015 and plan to provide more details when we release our fourth quarter financial results." Business Outlook: The following are forward-looking statements based on current expectations and assumptions, and involve risks and uncertainties some of which are outlined below. Autodesk's business outlook for the fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2014 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. Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2014: | Metric | Q4 FY14 Guidance (Ending January 31, 2014) | |----------------------------------|--------------------------------------------| | Revenue (in millions) | $560 – $580 | | EPS GAAP | $0.09 – $0.16 | | EPS Non-GAAP | $0.29 – $0.36 | _______________ (1) Includes impact of approximately $50 million from business model transition as revenue that would have otherwise been recognized during this period will be deferred. Deferred revenue is expected to increase by an equivalent amount related to this transition. (2) Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share exclude $0.11 related to stock-based compensation expense, $0.07 for the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, and $0.02 related to restructuring charges. Full Year Fiscal 2014: | Metric | FY14 Guidance (Ending January 31, 2014) | |----------------------------------|------------------------------------------| | Revenue (in millions) | $2,247 – $2,267 | | EPS GAAP | $0.84 – $0.90 | | EPS Non-GAAP | $1.55 – $1.61 | _______________ (1) Includes impact of approximately $50 million from business model transition as revenue that would have otherwise been recognized during this period will be deferred.

(2) Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share exclude $0.41 related to stock-based compensation expense, $0.26 for the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, and $0.04 related to restructuring charges. Both the fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2014 outlook assume annual effective tax rates of approximately 22% and approximately 25% for GAAP and non-GAAP results, respectively. These rates do not include one-time discrete items but do reflect the extension of the federal R&D tax credit benefit through December 31, 2013.
