ALTAIR ENGINEERING INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 i 
1.
Organization and description of business

Altair Engineering Inc. (“Altair” or the “Company”) is incorporated in the state of Delaware. The Company is a global leader in computational science and artificial intelligence enabling organizations across broad industry segments to drive smarter decisions in an increasingly connected world. Altair delivers software and cloud solutions in the areas of simulation, high-performance computing (“HPC”), data analytics, and artificial intelligence (“AI”). Altair’s products and services leverage computational science to drive innovation and intelligent decisions for a more connected, safe, and sustainable future. The Company is headquartered in Troy, Michigan.

 i 

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial information. Accordingly, the accompanying statements do not include all the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements (and notes thereto) for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

 i 

Change in Classification of Indirect Costs

Beginning in the first quarter of 2023, the Company refined its classification of certain indirect costs to reflect the way management is now reviewing the information in decision making and to improve comparability with peers. These indirect costs include certain IT, facilities, and depreciation expenses that were previously reported primarily in General and administrative expense. These indirect costs have now been reclassified to Research and development, Sales and marketing, and General and administrative expenses based on global headcount. Management believes this refined methodology better reflects the nature of the costs and financial performance of the Company.

As a result, the Company’s consolidated statements of operations have been recast for prior periods presented to reflect the effects of the changes to Research and development, Sales and marketing, and General and administrative expense. There was no net impact to total operating expenses, income from operations, net income or net income per share for any periods presented. The consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity, and the consolidated statements of cash flows were not affected by changes in the presentation of these costs.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its significant estimates including the stand alone selling price, or SSP, for each distinct performance obligation included in customer contracts with multiple performance obligations, valuation of acquired intangible assets in business combinations, the incremental borrowing rate used in the valuation of lease liabilities, the determination of the period of benefit for capitalized costs to obtain a contract, fair value of convertible senior notes, provision for credit loss, tax valuation allowances, liabilities for uncertain tax provisions, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, useful lives of intangible assets, and stock-based compensation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 i 

Significant accounting policies

There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Recent accounting guidance
 i 

Accounting standards not yet adopted

Reference Rate Reform – In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04. Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another rate that is expected to be discontinued. In October 2022, the FASB Board voted to amend the sunset date of ASU 2020-04 to December 31, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and does not expect this guidance to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

2027 Notes

In June 2022, the Company issued $ i 230.0 million aggregate principal amount of  i 1.750% convertible senior notes due in 2027 (the "2027 Notes"), which includes the initial purchaser’s exercise in full of its option to purchase an additional $ i 30.0 million principal amount of the 2027 Notes, in a private offering. The net proceeds from the issuance of the 2027 Notes was $ i 224.3 million after deducting discounts, commissions and estimated issuance costs.  i The 2027 Notes bear interest at a rate of  i 1.750% per year, payable  i semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, which commenced on i  December 15, 2022. /  The 2027 Notes mature on June 15, 2027, unless, earlier repurchased or redeemed by the Company or converted pursuant to their terms.  i The 2027 Notes have an initial conversion rate of  i 13.9505 shares of the Company's Class A common stock per $ i 1,000 principal amount of 2027 Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $ i 71.68 per share of its Class A common stock. /  Refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, for details of the issuance of the 2027 Notes.

The Company may settle the 2027 Notes in cash, shares of Class A common stock or a combination of cash and shares of the Class A common stock, at the Company’s election, in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions provided in the Indenture.

During the period ended September 30, 2023, the conditions allowing holders of the 2027 Notes to convert were not met. Therefore, the 2027 Notes remained classified as long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023.

2024 Notes

In June 2019, the Company issued $ i 230.0 million aggregate principal amount of  i 0.25% convertible senior notes due in 2024 (the "2024 Notes" and together with the 2027 Notes, the “Convertible Notes”), which includes the underwriters’ exercise in full of their option to purchase an additional $ i 30.0 million principal amount of the 2024 Notes, in a public offering. The net proceeds from the issuance of the 2024 Notes were $ i 221.9 million after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated issuance costs.  i The 2024 Notes bear interest at a rate of  i 0.25% per year, payable  i semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year. /  The 2024 Notes mature on  i June 1, 2024, unless, earlier repurchased or redeemed by the Company or converted pursuant to their terms.  i The 2024 Notes have an initial conversion rate of  i 21.5049 shares of the Company's Class A common stock per $ i 1,000 principal amount of 2024 Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $ i 46.50 per share of its Class A common stock. /  Refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, for details of the issuance of the 2024 Notes.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, using proceeds from the issuance of the 2027 Notes, the Company entered into separate privately negotiated transactions with certain holders of the 2024 Notes to repurchase and retire $ i 148.2 million aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes for an aggregate amount of $ i 192.4 million of cash including accrued and unpaid interest.

As of September 30, 2023, $ i 81.8 million principal amount of the 2024 Notes remained outstanding. The Company may settle the 2024 Notes in cash, shares of Class A common stock or a combination of cash and shares of the Class A common stock, at the Company’s election, in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions provided in the indenture for the 2024 Notes.

For at least twenty trading days during the last thirty consecutive trading days in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock was greater than or equal to  i 130% of the conversion price of the 2024 Notes. As a result, the 2024 Notes were convertible at the option of the holders and were classified as current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023.

Fair value measurements

The accounting guidance for fair value, among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The framework for measuring fair value consists of a three-level valuation hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value based upon whether such inputs are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions made by the reporting entity. The three-level hierarchy for the inputs to valuation techniques is briefly summarized as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities at the measurement date;

Level 2 – Observable inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

An asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short maturities. Interest on the Company’s line of credit is at a variable rate, and as such the debt obligation outstanding approximates fair value.

The carrying value of the Company’s Convertible Notes are at face value less unamortized issuance costs. The estimated fair values of the Convertible Notes, which the Company has classified as Level 2 financial instruments, were determined based on quoted bid prices of the Convertible Notes on the last trading day of each reporting period. As of September 30, 2023, the estimated fair value of the 2027 Notes and 2024 Notes was $ i 244.4 million and $ i 111.1 million, respectively, and is presented for required disclosure purposes only. For further information on the Convertible Notes, see Note 6. – Debt.

Net loss per share

Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, excluding dilutive securities, stock options, RSUs, and ESPP shares. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period and potentially dilutive common shares, including the effect of dilutive securities, stock options, RSUs and ESPP shares under the treasury stock method.

The Company applies the if-converted method for convertible instruments when calculating diluted earnings per share. Under the if-converted method, shares related to convertible senior notes, to the extent dilutive, are assumed to be converted into common stock at the beginning of the period.

The following table sets forth the computation of the numerators and denominators used in the basic and diluted net loss per share amounts (in thousands, except per share data):

The tax rate is affected by the Company being a U.S. resident taxpayer, the tax rates in the U.S. and other jurisdictions in which the Company operates, the relative amount of income earned by jurisdiction and the relative amount of losses or income for which no benefit or expense is recognized due to a valuation allowance. The change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to September 30, 2022, was primarily attributable to the effects of tax elections made by the Company during the quarter. The Company's effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 also includes net discrete expense of $ i 7.2 million and $ i 4.3 million, respectively, primarily related to changes in tax laws, withholding taxes on royalties, changes in reserves, changes in accruals for unremitted earnings and other adjustments.

Commitments and contingencies

World Programming

The Company acquired World Programming Limited and a related company (collectively, “World Programming”) in December 2021.

In 2018, SAS Institute, Inc. (“SAS”) filed litigation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas (the “Texas Court”) asserting that World Programming infringed SAS copyrights and patents. SAS voluntarily dismissed with prejudice its patent claims, and the Texas Court entered judgment in favor of World Programming on the copyright claims. SAS appealed the Texas Court judgment to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (the “Court of Appeals”). Oral arguments were held before the Court of Appeal on January 13, 2022. On April 6, 2023, the Court of Appeals issued its decision in favor of World Programming by affirming the Texas Court’s dismissal of SAS’s copyright claims. On September 3, 2023, the Company was notified that SAS elected not to file its petition for a writ of certiorari within the period in which SAS was eligible to file such petition. With such period having expired, the judgment of the Texas Court in favor of World Programming is now final and closed.

Other legal proceedings

From time to time, the Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. The Company has received, and may in the future continue to receive, claims from third parties asserting, among other things, infringement of their intellectual property rights. Future litigation may be necessary to defend the Company, its partners, and its customers by determining the scope, enforceability, and validity of third-party proprietary rights, or to establish and enforce the Company’s proprietary rights.

Effects of proceedings

The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

Segment information

The Company defines its operating segments as components of its business where separate financial information is available and used by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources to its segments and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer.

The Company has identified  i two reportable segments for financial reporting purposes: Software and Client Engineering Services. The primary measure of segment operating performance is Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for income tax expense (benefit), interest expense, interest income and other, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring charges, asset impairment charges and other special items as determined by management. Adjusted EBITDA includes an allocation of corporate headquarters costs.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this quarterly report and with our audited consolidated financial statements (and notes thereto) for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed below.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 under Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements include statements with respect to our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, assumptions, estimates, intentions, and future performance, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, which may be beyond our control, and which may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be forward-looking statements. You can identify these forward-looking statements through our use of words such as “may,” “can,” “anticipate,” “assume,” “should,” “indicate,” “would,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “expect,” “seek,” “estimate,” “continue,” “plan,” “point to,” “project,” “predict,” “could,” “intend,” “target,” “potential,” and other similar words and expressions of the future.

There are a number of important factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by us. These factors include, but are not limited to:

our ability and the time it takes to acquire new customers;
reduced spending on product design and development activities by our customers;
our ability to successfully renew our outstanding software licenses;
our ability to maintain or protect our intellectual property;
our ability to retain key executive members;
our ability to internally develop new software products, inventions and intellectual property;
our ability to successfully integrate and realize the benefits of our past or future strategic acquisitions or investments;
demand for our software by customers other than simulation engineering specialists and in additional industry verticals;
acceptance of our enhanced business model by customers and investors;
our susceptibility to factors affecting the automotive, aerospace and banking, financial services, and insurance industries where we derive a substantial portion of our revenues;
the accuracy of our estimates regarding expenses and capital requirements;
our susceptibility to foreign currency risks that arise because of our substantial international operations;
the significant quarterly fluctuations of our results; and
the uncertain effect of cyberattacks, data security incidents, COVID-19 or other future pandemics or events on our business, operating results, and financial condition, including disruption to our customers, our employees, the global economy, and financial markets.

 

20


 

The foregoing does not represent an exhaustive list of matters that may be covered by the forward-looking statements contained herein or risk factors that we are faced with that may cause our actual results to differ from those anticipated in our forward-looking statements. For additional risks which could adversely impact our business and financial performance please see “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, which was filed with the SEC on February 24, 2023, and other information appearing elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, this report on Form 10-Q and our other filings with the SEC.

 

All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary notice. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report or the date of the document incorporated by reference into this report. We have no obligation, and expressly disclaim any obligation, to update, revise or correct any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. We have expressed our expectations, beliefs, and projections in good faith, and we believe they have a reasonable basis. However, we cannot assure you that our expectations, beliefs, or projections will result or be achieved or accomplished.

Overview

We are a global leader in computational science and artificial intelligence enabling organizations across broad industry segments to drive smarter decisions in an increasingly connected world. We deliver software and cloud solutions in the areas of simulation, high-performance computing (“HPC”), data analytics, and artificial intelligence (“AI”). Our products and services leverage computational science to drive innovation and intelligent decisions for a more connected, safe, and sustainable future.

Factors Affecting our Performance

We believe that our future success will depend on many factors, including those described below. While these areas present significant opportunity, they also present risks that we must manage to achieve successful results. If we are unable to address these challenges, our business, operating results and prospects could be harmed. Please see “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Seasonality and quarterly results

Our billings have historically been highest in the first and fourth quarters of any calendar year and may vary in future quarters. The timing of recording billings and the corresponding effect on our cash flows may vary due to the seasonality of the purchasing and payment patterns of our customers. In addition, the timing of the recognition of revenue, the amount and timing of operating expenses, including employee compensation, sales and marketing activities, and capital expenditures, may vary from quarter-to-quarter which may cause our reported results to fluctuate significantly. In addition, we may choose to grow our business for the long-term rather than to optimize for profitability or cash flows for a particular shorter-term period. This seasonality or the occurrence of any of the factors above may cause our results of operations to vary and our financial statements may not fully reflect the underlying performance of our business.

Integration of recent acquisitions

We believe that our recent acquisitions result in certain benefits, including expanding our portfolio of software and products and enabling us to better serve our customers’ requests for data analytics and simulation technology. However, to realize some of these anticipated benefits, the acquired businesses must be successfully integrated. The success of these acquisitions will depend in part on our ability to realize these anticipated benefits. We may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of these acquisitions for a variety of reasons.

Foreign currency fluctuations

Because of our substantial international operations, we are exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from our normal business operations, including in connection with our transactions that are denominated in foreign currencies, including the Euro, British Pound Sterling, Indian Rupee, Japanese Yen, and Chinese Yuan. To identify changes in our underlying business without regard to the impact of currency fluctuations, we evaluate certain of our operating results both on an as reported basis, as well as on a constant currency basis. For the remainder of our current fiscal year, we anticipate that our revenues and profit may be impacted by changes in foreign currency rates.

21


 

Business Segments

We have identified two reportable segments: Software and Client Engineering Services:

Software —Our Software segment includes software and software related services. The software component of this segment includes our portfolio of software products including our solvers and optimization technology products, high-performance computing software applications and hardware products, modeling and visualization tools, data analytics and analysis products, IoT platform and analytics tools, as well as support and the complementary software products we offer through our Altair Partner Alliance, or APA. The APA includes technologies ranging from computational fluid dynamics and fatigue, to manufacturing process simulation and cost estimation. The software component of this segment includes consulting, training, and implementation services. The software related services component of this segment includes technical services focused on product design and development expertise and analysis from the component level up to complete product engineering at any stage of the lifecycle.
Client Engineering Services —Our client engineering services, or CES, segment provides client engineering services to support our customers with long-term, ongoing expertise. We operate our CES business by hiring engineers and data scientists for placement at a customer site for specific customer-directed assignments. We employ and pay them only for the duration of the placement.

 

Our other businesses which do not meet the criteria to be separate reportable segments are combined and reported as “Other” which represents innovative services and products, including toggled, our LED lighting business. toggled is focused on developing and selling next-generation solid state lighting technology along with communication and control protocols based on our intellectual property for the direct replacement of fluorescent light tubes with LED lamps. Other businesses combined within Other include potential services and product concepts that are still in development stages.

For additional information about our reportable segments and other businesses, see Note 13 in the Notes to consolidated financial statements in Item 1, Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Change in Classification of Indirect Costs

As indicated in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, beginning in the first quarter of 2023, we refined the classification of certain indirect costs to reflect the way we are now reviewing the information in decision making and to improve comparability with peers. These indirect costs include certain IT, facilities, and depreciation expenses that were previously reported primarily in General and administrative expense. These indirect costs have now been reclassified to Research and development, Sales and marketing, and General and administrative expenses based on global headcount. We believe this refined methodology better reflects the nature of the costs and financial performance of the Company.

As a result, the consolidated statements of operations have been recast for prior periods presented to reflect the effects of the changes to Research and development, Sales and marketing, and General and administrative expense. There was no net impact to total operating expenses, income from operations, net income or net income per share for any periods presented. The consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity, and the consolidated statements of cash flows were not affected by changes in the presentation of these costs.

The effective tax rate was 60% and -16% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The tax rate is affected by our status as a U.S. resident taxpayer, the tax rates in the U.S. and other jurisdictions in which we operate, the relative amount of income earned by jurisdiction and the relative amount of losses or income for which no benefit or expense is recognized due to a valuation allowance. The change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to September 30, 2022, was primarily attributable to the effects of tax elections we made during the quarter. Our effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, also include net discrete benefit of $4.4 million and net discrete expense of $0.9 million, respectively, primarily related to changes in tax laws, withholding taxes on royalties, changes in reserves, changes in accruals for unremitted earnings and other adjustments.

The effective tax rate was -66% and -37% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The tax rate is affected by our status as a U.S. resident taxpayer, the tax rates in the U.S. and other jurisdictions in which we operate, the relative amount of income earned by jurisdiction and the relative amount of losses or income for which no benefit or expense is recognized due to a valuation allowance. Our effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, also include net discrete expense of $7.2 million and $4.3 million, respectively, primarily related to changes in tax laws, withholding taxes on royalties, changes in reserves, changes in accruals for unremitted earnings and other adjustments.

Net loss was $28.6 million and $55.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was largely attributable to the increase in operating expenses and a loss on the mark-to-market adjustment of contingent consideration, partially offset by the increase in software revenue and interest income, and decreases in foreign exchange losses and income tax expense as described above. The net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 included expense recognized on the repurchase of a portion of our 2024 Notes, foreign currency losses and a gain on the mark-to-market adjustment of contingent consideration.

Non-GAAP financial measures

We monitor the following key non-GAAP (United States generally accepted accounting principles) financial and operating metrics to help us evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions. In analyzing and planning for our business, we supplement our use of GAAP financial measures with non-GAAP financial measures, including Billings as a liquidity measure, Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure and Free Cash Flow as a liquidity measure.

Billings. Billings consists of our total revenue plus the change in our deferred revenue, excluding deferred revenue from acquisitions during the period. Given that we generally bill our customers at the time of sale, but typically recognize a portion of the related revenue ratably over time, management believes that Billings is a meaningful way to measure and monitor our ability to provide our business with the working capital generated by upfront payments from our customers.

 

Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for income tax expense (benefit), interest expense, interest income and other, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring charges, asset impairment charges and other special items as determined by management. Our management team believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful measure of performance as it is commonly utilized by management and the investment community to analyze operating performance in our industry.

Free Cash Flow. Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP measure that we calculate as cash flow provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Management believes that Free Cash Flow is useful in analyzing our ability to service and repay debt, when applicable, and return value directly to stockholders.

These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our business that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures included in the tables below, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures and are by definition an incomplete understanding of the Company and must be considered in conjunction with GAAP measures.

We believe that the non-GAAP measures disclosed herein are only useful as an additional tool to help management and investors make informed decisions about our financial and operating performance and liquidity. By definition, non-GAAP measures do not give a full understanding of the Company. To be truly valuable, they must be used in conjunction with the comparable GAAP measures. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized. It may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Recurring software license rate

A key factor to our success is our recurring software license rate which we measure through Billings, primarily derived from annual renewals of our existing subscription customer agreements. Recurring revenue streams allow us to create more consistent, predictable cash flows and drive greater long-term customer value. We believe the recurring software license rate is a key factor to our success and we monitor this measure to ensure our go-to-market strategy is driving long-term success of our business.

32


 

We calculate our recurring software license rate for a particular period by dividing (i) the sum of software term-based license Billings, software license maintenance Billings, and 20% of software perpetual license Billings which we believe approximates maintenance as an element of the arrangement by (ii) the total software license Billings including all term-based subscriptions, maintenance, and perpetual license billings from all customers for that period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, our recurring software license rate was 94% and 93%, respectively. The recurring software license rate may vary from period to period.

Liquidity and capital resources

As of September 30, 2023, our principal sources of liquidity were $431.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and $200.0 million availability on our credit facility. We have outstanding debt in the form of our 2027 and 2024 convertible notes (“Convertible Notes”) with a $311.8 million principal amount as of September 30, 2023.

For at least twenty trading days during the last thirty consecutive trading days in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock was greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price of the 2024 Notes. As a result, the 2024 Notes were convertible at the option of the holders and were classified as current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023.

During the period ended September 30, 2023, the conditions allowing holders of the 2027 Notes to convert were not met. Therefore, the 2027 Notes were classified as long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023.

We have the ability to settle the Convertible Notes in cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock at our own election.

On May 31, 2023, our Board approved an increased authorization under our existing stock repurchase program from $50.0 million to $75.0 million of our common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, under our stock repurchase program, we repurchased and retired 91,273 shares of our Class A Common Stock at an average price of $46.63 per share for a total cost of approximately $4.3 million. As of September 30, 2023, approximately $49.1 million remained available for repurchase under the program.

We continue to evaluate possible acquisitions and other strategic transactions designed to expand our business. As a result, our expected uses of cash could change, our cash position could be reduced, or we may incur additional debt obligations to the extent we complete additional acquisitions or strategic transactions.

Our existing cash and cash equivalents may fluctuate during fiscal 2023 due to changes in our planned cash expenditures, including changes in incremental costs such as direct costs and integration costs related to acquisitions. Cash from operations could also be affected by various risks and uncertainties. It is possible that certain customers may unilaterally decide to extend payments on accounts receivable, however our customer base is comprised primarily of larger organizations with typically strong liquidity and capital resources.

We believe that our existing cash balances, together with funds generated from operations and amounts available under our credit facility, will be sufficient to finance our operations and meet our foreseeable cash requirements for the next twelve months. We also believe that our financial resources, along with managing discretionary expenses, will allow us to manage our business operations for the foreseeable future and withstand economic uncertainty, which could include reductions in revenue and delays in payments from customers and partners. We will continue to evaluate our financial position as developments evolve.

Revolving credit facility

We have a $200.0 million credit facility with a maturity date of December 31, 2025 (“2019 Amended Credit Agreement”). As of September 30, 2023, there were no outstanding borrowings under the 2019 Amended Credit Agreement and there was $200.0 million available for future borrowing. The 2019 Amended Credit Agreement is available for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures and permitted acquisitions. As of September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with the financial covenants.

For additional information about the 2019 Amended Credit Agreement, refer to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2023.

Cash flows

As of September 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $431.2 million available for working capital purposes, acquisitions, and capital expenditures; $324.5 million of this amount was held in the United States and $100.5 million was held in the APAC and EMEA regions with the remainder held in Canada, Mexico, and South America.

Other than statutory limitations, there are no significant restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other distributions to Altair. Based on our current liquidity needs and repatriation strategies, we expect that we can manage our global liquidity needs without material adverse tax implications.

Net cash provided by operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was $105.7 million, which reflects an increase of $79.1 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This increase was the result of a $65.9 million payment in the prior year on an existing legal judgment against World Programming, and an improvement in our operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Net cash used in investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was $13.6 million, which reflects a decrease of $137.6 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we paid $96.5 million for the acquisition of RapidMiner, and an additional $42.2 million related to other business acquisitions and investments.

Net cash provided by financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was $25.0 million, which reflects a decrease of $10.2 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we received proceeds of $25.5 million from the exercise of common stock options and made payments of $6.3 million for the repurchase of our Class A common stock. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we received aggregate proceeds of $224.3 million from the issuance of our 2027 Notes, net of certain discounts and commissions, partially offset by $192.4 million proceeds used for the repurchase of a portion of our 2024 Notes, and made payments of $4.4 million for the repurchase of our Class A common stock.

Effect of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash

There were adverse effects of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $2.6 million and $12.1 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022.

Commitments

There were no material changes in our commitments as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

See Note 2 in the Notes to consolidated financial statements in Item 1, Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a full description of the recent accounting pronouncements and our expectation of their impact, if any, on our results of operations and financial condition.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to certain global market risks, including foreign currency exchange risk and interest rate risk associated with our revolving credit facility.

Foreign Currency Risk

As a result of our substantial international operations, we are exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from our normal business operations, including in connection with our transactions that are denominated in foreign currencies. In addition, we translate sales and financial results denominated in foreign currencies into United States dollars for purposes of our consolidated financial statements. As a result, appreciation of the United States dollar against these foreign currencies generally will have a negative impact on our reported revenue and operating income while depreciation of the United States dollar against these foreign currencies will generally have a positive effect on reported revenue and operating income.

As of September 30, 2023, we do not have any foreign currency hedging contracts. Based on our current international operations, we do not plan on engaging in hedging activities in the near future.

Market Risk and Market Interest Risk

In June 2022, we issued $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.750% convertible senior notes due in 2027. In June 2019, we issued $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0.250% convertible senior notes due 2024 of which $81.8 million aggregate principal amount remains outstanding as of September 30, 2023. The 2027 Notes and 2024 Notes have fixed annual interest rates at 1.750% and 0.250%, respectively, and, therefore, we do not have economic interest rate exposure on our Convertible Notes. However, the value of the Convertible Notes is exposed to interest rate risk. Generally, the fair market value of our fixed interest rate Convertible Notes will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. In addition, the fair values of the Convertible Notes are affected by our stock price. The fair value of the Convertible Notes will generally increase as our Class A common stock price increases in value and will generally decrease as our Class A common stock price declines in value. We carry the Convertible Notes at face value less unamortized issuance costs on our balance sheet, and we present the fair value for required disclosure purposes only.

As of September 30, 2023, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $431.4 million, consisting primarily of bank deposits and money market funds. As of September 30, 2023, we had no outstanding borrowings under our 2019 Amended Credit Agreement. Such interest-bearing instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk; however, historical fluctuations of interest expense have not been significant.

Interest rate risk relates to the gain/increase or loss/decrease we could incur on our debt balances and interest expense associated with changes in interest rates. Changes in interest rates would impact the amount of interest income we realize on our invested cash balances. It is our policy not to enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes, and therefore, we hold no derivative instruments for trading purposes.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in periodic reports filed with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2023.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2023, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

World Programming

We acquired World Programming Limited and a related company (collectively, “World Programming”) in December 2021.

In 2018, SAS Institute, Inc. (“SAS”) filed litigation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas (the “Texas Court”) asserting that World Programming infringed SAS copyrights and patents. SAS voluntarily dismissed with prejudice its patent claims, and the Texas Court entered judgment in favor of World Programming on the copyright claims. SAS appealed the Texas Court judgment to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (the “Court of Appeals”). Oral arguments were held before the Court of Appeal on January 13, 2022. On April 6, 2023, the Court of Appeals issued its decision in favor of World Programming by affirming the Texas Court’s dismissal of SAS’s copyright claims. On September 3, 2023, the Company was notified that SAS elected not to file its petition for a writ of certiorari within the period in which SAS was eligible to file such petition. With such period having expired, the judgment of the Texas Court in favor of World Programming is now final and closed.

Other legal proceedings

From time to time, we may be subject to other legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. We have received, and may in the future continue to receive, claims from third parties asserting, among other things, infringement of their intellectual property rights. Future litigation may be necessary to defend ourselves, our partners and our customers by determining the scope, enforceability and validity of third-party proprietary rights, or to establish and enforce our proprietary rights. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

All shares are subject to customary securities law restrictions on transferability. All shares were issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. XLDyn existing stockholders provided customary representations for a private placement of securities and agreed to customary restrictions on transferability.
