Aspen Technology, Inc. (AspenTech) (NASDAQ: AZPN), a global
leader in asset optimization software, today announced financial
results for its second-quarter of fiscal year 2022, ended December
31, 2021.
“AspenTech delivered strong second quarter results that
reflected continued improvement in both customer demand and
business conditions in many of our key end markets, which supports
our increased outlook for annual spend growth for fiscal 2022. We
are confident that the strategic imperative for our customers to
operate assets more efficiently and sustainably will drive
increased spend that will generate double-digit growth for
AspenTech over time.”
Pietri continued, “We are on track to close the proposed
transaction with Emerson in our fourth fiscal quarter. We remain
excited by the opportunities for the new AspenTech to enable
customers to improve the safety, sustainability, reliability and
efficiency of their assets. The combination of talented individuals
and leading software products and solutions in the OSI and
Geological Simulation Software businesses will strengthen AspenTech
and collectively enhance our unique ability to improve the
profitability and sustainability of our customers. We are also
confident this transaction will generate attractive financial
performance and significant value for our shareholders over the
long-term.”
Second Quarter and Fiscal Year 2022 Recent Business
Highlights
- Annual spend, which the company defines as the annualized value
of all term license and maintenance contracts at the end of the
quarter, was $640 million at the end of the second quarter of
fiscal 2022, which increased 6.0% compared to the second quarter of
fiscal 2021 and 1.7% sequentially.
- AspenTech repurchased approximately 439,000 shares of its
common stock for $65 million in the second quarter of fiscal
2022.
Summary of Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2022 Financial
Results
AspenTech’s total revenue of $171.4 million included:
- License revenue, which represents the portion of a term
license agreement allocated to the initial license, was $116.1
million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to $180.2
million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021.
- Maintenance revenue, which represents the portion of the
term license agreement related to ongoing support and the right to
future product enhancements, was $48.4 million in the second
quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to $46.8 million in the second
quarter of fiscal 2021.
- Services and other revenue was $6.9 million in the
second quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to $6.7 million in the
second quarter of fiscal 2021.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2021, AspenTech reported
income from operations of $68.5 million, compared to income from
operations of $149.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal
2021.
Net income was $61.9 million for the quarter ended December 31,
2021, leading to net income per share of $0.92, compared to net
income per share of $1.89 in the same period last fiscal year.
Non-GAAP income from operations was $92.2 million for the second
quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to non-GAAP income from operations
of $162.2 million in the same period last fiscal year. Non-GAAP net
income was $80.6 million, or $1.20 per share, for the second
quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to non-GAAP net income of $139.3
million, or $2.04 per share, in the same period last fiscal year.
These non-GAAP results add back the impact of stock-based
compensation expense, amortization of intangibles and acquisition
and integration planning related fees. A reconciliation of GAAP to
non-GAAP results is presented in the financial tables included in
this press release.
AspenTech had cash and cash equivalents of $211.4 million and
total borrowings, net of debt issuance costs, of $285.2 million at
December 31, 2021.
During the second quarter, the company generated $41.3 million
in cash flow from operations and $51.9 million in free cash flow.
Free cash flow is calculated as net cash provided by operating
activities adjusted for the net impact of: purchases of property,
equipment and leasehold improvements; payments for capitalized
computer software development costs, and other nonrecurring items,
such as acquisition and integration planning related payments.
Business Outlook
Based on information as of today, January 26, 2022, AspenTech is
issuing the following guidance for fiscal year 2022:
- Annual spend growth of 7-8% year-over-year
- Free cash flow of $280 to $290 million
- Total bookings of $814 to $840 million
- Total revenue of $737 to $754 million
- GAAP total expense of $413 to $418 million
- Non-GAAP total expense of $340 to $345 million
- GAAP operating income of $324 to $336 million
- Non-GAAP operating income of $397 to $409 million
- GAAP net income of $295 to $306 million
- Non-GAAP net income of $353 to $364 million
- GAAP net income per share of $4.37 to $4.53
- Non-GAAP net income per share of $5.23 to $5.39
The above guidance does not give effect to the proposed
transaction with Emerson, which, if completed, is expected to close
during fiscal 2022. These statements are forward-looking and actual
results may differ materially. Refer to the Forward-Looking
Statements safe harbor below for information on the factors that
could cause AspenTech’s actual results to differ materially from
these forward-looking statements.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains “non-GAAP financial measures” under
the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Non-GAAP
financial measures are not based on a comprehensive set of
accounting rules or principles. This non-GAAP information
supplements, and is not intended to represent a measure of
performance in accordance with, disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Non-GAAP financial
measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute
for or superior to, financial measures determined in accordance
with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is included
in the financial tables included in this press release.
Management considers both GAAP and non-GAAP financial results in
managing AspenTech’s business. As the result of adoption of new
licensing models, management believes that a number of AspenTech’s
performance indicators based on GAAP, including revenue, gross
profit, operating income and net income, should be viewed in
conjunction with certain non-GAAP and other business measures in
assessing AspenTech’s performance, growth and financial condition.
Accordingly, management utilizes a number of non-GAAP and other
business metrics, including the non-GAAP metrics set forth in this
press release, to track AspenTech’s business performance. None of
these non-GAAP metrics should be considered as an alternative to
any measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with
GAAP.

purposes of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements regarding the
pending transaction with Emerson. The forward-looking statements
regarding the pending transaction with Emerson include: the
expected timing and structure of the transaction; the ability of
the parties to complete the transaction considering the various
closing conditions; the expected benefits of the transaction, such
as improved synergies, growth potential, business plans, expanded
portfolio, financial performance and strength; the position of the
new AspenTech following completion of the transaction; and any
assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Forward-looking
statements are based upon current plans, estimates and expectations
that are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Should
one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should
underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary
materially from those indicated or anticipated by such
forward-looking statements. We can give no assurance that such
plans, estimates or expectations will be achieved and therefore,
actual results may differ materially from any plans, estimates or
expectations in such forward-looking statements.
Actual results may vary significantly from AspenTech’s
expectations based on a number of risks and uncertainties,
including, without limitation: delays or reductions in demand for
AspenTech solutions due to the COVID-19 pandemic; AspenTech’s
failure to increase usage and product adoption of aspenONE
offerings or grow the aspenONE APM business, and failure to
continue to provide innovative, market-leading solutions; declines
in the demand for, or usage of, aspenONE software for any reason,
including declines due to adverse changes in the process or other
capital-intensive industries and materially reduced industry
spending budgets due to the drop in demand for oil due to the
COVID-19 pandemic; unfavorable economic and market conditions or a
lessening demand in the market for asset process optimization
software, including materially reduced industry spending budgets
due to the significant drop in oil prices arising from drop in
demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic; risks of foreign operations or
transacting business with customers outside the United States;
risks of competition; and other risk factors described from time to
time in AspenTech’s periodic reports filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
Important factors that could cause actual results relating to
the pending transaction with Emerson to differ materially from
AspenTech’s plans, estimates or expectations regarding the
transaction include, among others: (1) that one or more closing
conditions to the transaction, including certain regulatory
approvals, may not be satisfied or waived, on a timely basis or
otherwise, including that a governmental entity may prohibit, delay
or refuse to grant approval for the consummation of the
transaction, may require conditions, limitations or restrictions in
connection with such approvals or that the required approval by
AspenTech’s stockholders may not be obtained; (2) the risk that the
transaction may not be completed in the time frame expected by
AspenTech or Emerson, or at all; (3) unexpected costs, charges or
expenses resulting from the transaction; (4) uncertainty of the
expected financial performance of the new AspenTech (“New
AspenTech”) following completion of the transaction; (5) failure to
realize the anticipated benefits of the transaction, including as a
result of delay in completing the transaction or integrating the
industrial software business of Emerson with AspenTech’s business;
(6) the ability of New AspenTech to implement its business
strategy; (7) difficulties and delays in achieving revenue and cost
synergies of New AspenTech; (8) inability to retain and hire key
personnel; (9) the occurrence of any event that could give rise to
termination of the transaction; (10) potential litigation in
connection with the transaction or other settlements or
investigations that may affect the timing or occurrence of the
transaction or result in significant costs of defense,
indemnification and liability; (11) AspenTech’s ability and the
ability of Emerson and New AspenTech to successfully recover from a
disaster or other business continuity problem due to a hurricane,
flood, earthquake, terrorist attack, war, pandemic, security
breach, cyber-attack, power loss, telecommunications failure or
other natural or man-made event, including the ability to function
remotely during long-term disruptions such as the COVID-19
pandemic; (12) potential adverse reactions or changes to business
relationships resulting from the announcement or completion of the
transaction; (13) the risk that disruptions from the transaction
will harm Emerson’s and AspenTech’s business, including current
plans and operations; (14) certain restrictions during the pendency
of the transaction that may impact Emerson’s or AspenTech’s ability
to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions;
(15) AspenTech’s, Emerson’s and new AspenTech’s ability to meet
expectations regarding the accounting and tax treatments of the
transaction; and (16) other risk factors as detailed from time to
time in Emerson’s and AspenTech’s reports filed with the SEC,
including Emerson’s and AspenTech’s annual report on Form 10-K,
periodic quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, periodic current reports
on Form 8-K and other documents filed with the SEC.
While the list of factors presented here is considered
representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete
statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted
factors may present significant additional obstacles to the
realization of forward-looking statements.
AspenTech cannot guarantee any future results, levels of
activity, performance, or achievements. AspenTech expressly
disclaims any obligation to update forward-looking statements after
the date of this press release.
