Autodesk Reports Record Revenue of $599 Million

Reaffirms Fiscal 2009 Revenue Guidance

SAN RAFAEL, Calif., Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ:ADSK) today reported record revenue of $599 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008, an increase of 20 percent over the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007. Fourth quarter net income was $96 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, on a GAAP basis and $124 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, on a non- GAAP basis. Net income in the fourth quarter of the prior year was $96 million, or $0.40 per diluted share on a GAAP basis, and $113 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, on a non-GAAP basis. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP results is provided at the end of this press release.

"Autodesk delivered another quarter of solid revenue results, capping another record year," said Carl Bass, Autodesk president and CEO. "Our results demonstrate the strength and stability our business model provides. Because our geographic balance and customer and industry diversification help insulate Autodesk from changes in any one particular market, we remain optimistic about the coming year."

Operational Highlights

Autodesk's performance in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 was driven by strong growth in revenue generated in international geographies, revenue from new seats as well as continued customer migration from 2D to 3D design solutions, offset by slower than expected growth in the Americas.

Compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, revenue in EMEA increased 38 percent to $262 million. Revenue in Asia Pacific increased 24 percent year-over-year to $131 million. Revenue from the emerging economies in Asia Pacific, EMEA and Latin America increased 52 percent and were 19 percent of total revenue. Strong growth in these international geographies was offset by revenue growth in the Americas of 2 percent over the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007.

Combined revenue from the Company's model-based 3D products -- Inventor, Revit, Civil 3D and NavisWorks software -- increased 21 percent over the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 to $146 million. Autodesk shipped approximately 21,000 commercial seats of Revit and NavisWorks, over 17,000 commercial seats of Inventor and over 7,500 commercial seats of Civil 3D.

Revenue from all new commercial seats increased by 30 percent compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007.

Fiscal 2008 Highlights

For fiscal 2008, revenue was a record $2.172 billion, an increase of 18 percent compared to fiscal 2007. Fiscal 2008 net income was $356 million, or $1.47 per diluted share, on a GAAP basis and $456 million, or $1.88 per diluted share, on a non-GAAP basis. Net income in fiscal 2007 was $290 million, or $1.19 per diluted share, on a GAAP basis and $375 million, or $1.53 per diluted share, on a non-GAAP basis.

Autodesk, Inc.
Reconciliation of GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP financial measures
(In millions, except per share data)

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP
basis, Autodesk provides investors with certain non-GAAP measures
including non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, non-GAAP
cost of license and other revenues, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP
operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP interest and
other income, net and non-GAAP provision for income taxes. These non-GAAP
financial measures are adjusted to exclude certain costs, expenses, gains
and losses, including stock-based compensation expense, employee tax
reimbursements related to our stock option review, litigation expenses,
in-process research and development expenses, restructuring expenses,
amortization of purchased intangibles, investment impairment and 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 generally accepted
accounting principles 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
this press release.

The following table shows Autodesk's non-GAAP results reconciled to GAAP
results included in this release.

(1) To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a
GAAP basis, Autodesk provides investors with certain non-GAAP measures
including non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, non-GAAP
cost of license and other revenues, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP
operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP interest
and other income, net and non-GAAP provision for income taxes. These
non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted to exclude certain costs,
expenses, gains and losses, including stock-based compensation
expense, employee tax reimbursements related to our stock option
review, litigation expenses, in-process research and development
expenses, restructuring expenses, amortization of purchased
intangibles, investment impairment and 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 generally
accepted accounting principles 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 this press release.
