Definitions of the non‑GAAP financial measures used in this press release and reconciliations of such measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures are included below under the heading “Use and Reconciliation of Non‑GAAP Financial Measures.”

CEO Greg Bentley said, “I am pleased to report that Bentley Systems’ operating performance continues to accord with our annual financial outlook for 2022, abstracting from foreign exchange fluctuations. While exchange rates obviously affect reported revenues, our adjusted EBITDA margin is substantially naturally hedged. In constant currency, most importantly, the quarter’s year‑over‑year business performance ARR growth rate of 11.5%, which includes the write‑down in 22Q2 of the remaining half (0.5%) of our ARR in Russia, remains consistent with our expectations for the year. The 22Q1 acquisition of Power Line Systems contributed, as expected, a further 2.5% in ARR growth rate.”

Mr. Bentley continued, “As to further ‘macro’ concerns, new business in China stabilized after 22Q1’s ‘counter‑globalism’ setback, and new business in Central Europe and Southern Europe improved. Beyond infrastructure engineering’s intrinsic resilience even with respect to currently forecasted slowdowns in major economies, Bentley Systems’ second half of 2022 is poised to benefit from our flourishing platform acquisitions for environmental opportunities (Seequent) and grid opportunities (Power Line Systems). I believe that investing in going digital for infrastructure engineering will prove an enduring global imperative.”

CFO Werner Andre said, “To quantify the currency headwinds from the dollar strengthening during the quarter, our 22Q2 reported GAAP total revenues of $268.3 million would have been $275.4 million, if the exchange rates used in our annual financial outlook had remained in effect.

“Although our 2022 financial outlook has not materially changed (including after netting year‑to‑date acquisitions and divestitures, and discontinuation of our business operations in Russia): if recent exchange rates would prevail for the remainder of the year, our 2022 full year total revenues as reported would be negatively impacted by about $25 million, relative to the revenues based on the exchange rates in effect when we determined our full year 2022 outlook at the beginning of the year, with adjusted EBITDA margin still approximately 33%.”

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Developments

On May 11, 2022, we announced that our board of directors approved the BSY Stock Repurchase Program authorizing us to repurchase up to $200 million of the Company’s Class B Common Stock through June 30, 2024. The BSY Stock Repurchase Program is used to offset dilution from the issuance of the Company’s Class B Common Stock under our stock-based plans to enhance stockholder value. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we repurchased 463,001 shares for $13.2 million.

Definitions of Certain Key Business Metrics

Definitions of the non‑GAAP financial measures used in this operating results press release and reconciliations of such measures to their nearest GAAP equivalents are included below under “Use and Reconciliation of Non‑GAAP Financial Measures.”

• Last twelve-month recurring revenues are calculated as recurring revenues recognized over the preceding twelve-month period. We define recurring revenues as subscription revenues that recur monthly, quarterly, or annually with specific or automatic renewal clauses and professional services revenues in which the underlying contract is based on a fixed fee and contains automatic annual renewal provisions;
• ARR is defined as the sum of the annualized value of our portfolio of contracts that produce recurring revenues as of the last day of the reporting period, and the annualized value of the last three months of recognized revenues for our contractually recurring consumption-based software subscriptions with consumption measurement durations of less than one year, calculated using the spot foreign exchange rates;
• Business performance is defined as organic growth results inclusive of the impact from the ARR onboarding of certain programmatic acquisitions, which generally are immaterial, individually and in the aggregate, and is exclusive of the ARR onboarding of our Seequent and Power Line Systems platform acquisitions;
• GAAP net income margin is determined by dividing GAAP net income by total revenues;
• Adjusted EBITDA margin is determined by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by total revenues; and
• Adjusted Net Income per diluted share is determined by dividing Adjusted Net Income by the weighted average diluted shares.

Constant Currency Metrics

In reporting period-over-period results, we calculate the effects of foreign currency fluctuations and constant currency information by translating current period results using prior period average foreign currency exchange rates. Our definition of constant currency may differ from other companies reporting similarly named measures, and these constant currency performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, our operating performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

• Our last twelve-month recurring revenues dollar-based net retention rate is calculated, using the average exchange rates for the prior period, as follows: the recurring revenues for the current period, including any growth or reductions from accounts with recurring revenues in the prior period (“existing accounts”), but excluding recurring revenues from any new accounts added during the current period, divided by the total recurring revenues from all accounts during the prior period. A period is defined as any trailing twelve months;
• Our last twelve-month account retention rate for any given twelve-month period is calculated using the average currency exchange rates for the prior period, as follows: the prior period recurring revenues from all accounts with recurring revenues in the current and prior period, divided by total recurring revenues from all accounts during the prior period; and
• Our ARR growth rate is the growth rate of our ARR, measured on a constant currency basis.

Use and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we have calculated Adjusted cost of subscriptions and licenses, Adjusted cost of services, Adjusted research and development, Adjusted selling and marketing, Adjusted general and administrative, Adjusted income from operations, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted EBITDA, each of which are non‑GAAP financial measures. We have provided tabular reconciliations of each of these non‑GAAP financial measures to such measure’s most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

Management uses these non‑GAAP financial measures to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for internal budgeting and forecasting purposes, and to evaluate financial performance. Our non‑GAAP financial measures are presented as supplemental disclosure as we believe they provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results and prospects period-over-period without the impact of certain items that do not directly correlate to our operating performance and that may vary significantly from period to period for reasons unrelated to our operating performance, as well as to compare our financial results to those of other companies. Our definitions of these non‑GAAP financial measures may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. In addition, other companies may not publish these or similar metrics. Thus, our non‑GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or in isolation from, the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

We calculate these non‑GAAP financial measures as follows:

• Adjusted cost of subscriptions and licenses is determined by adding back to GAAP cost of subscriptions and licenses, amortization of purchased intangibles and developed technologies, stock-based compensation, acquisition expenses, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
• Adjusted cost of services is determined by adding back to GAAP cost of services, stock-based compensation, acquisition expenses, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
• Adjusted research and development is determined by adding back to GAAP research and development, stock-based compensation and acquisition expenses, for the respective periods;
• Adjusted selling and marketing is determined by adding back to GAAP selling and marketing, stock-based compensation, acquisition expenses, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
• Adjusted general and administrative is determined by adding back to GAAP general and administrative, stock-based compensation, acquisition expenses, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
• Adjusted income from operations is determined by adding back to GAAP operating income, amortization of purchased intangibles and developed technologies, stock-based compensation, expense (income) relating to deferred compensation plan liabilities, acquisition expenses, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
• Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income adjusted for the following: amortization of purchased intangibles and developed technologies, stock-based compensation, expense (income) relating to deferred compensation plan liabilities, acquisition expenses, realignment expenses, other non-operating (income) expense, net, the tax effect of the above adjustments to net income, and (income) loss from investment accounted for using the equity method, net of tax. The income tax effect of non‑GAAP adjustments was determined using the applicable rates in the taxing jurisdictions in which income or expense occurred, and represent both current and deferred income tax expense or benefit based on the nature of the non‑GAAP adjustments, including the tax effects of non-cash stock-based compensation expense; and
• Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income adjusted for interest expense, net, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, expense (income) relating to deferred compensation plan liabilities, acquisition expenses, realignment expenses, other non-operating (income) expense, net, and (income) loss from investment accounted for using the equity method, net of tax.

We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure, and to view these non‑GAAP financial measures in conjunction with the related GAAP financial measures. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company modified its definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income to adjust for realignment expenses relating to our wind down of business in, and exit from, the Russian market. These realignment expenses are comprised of termination benefits for colleagues whose positions were eliminated and corresponding asset impairments. During the third quarter of 2021, the Company modified its definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income to adjust for expense (income) relating to deferred compensation plan liabilities. Amounts for all periods herein reflect application of the aforementioned definition modifications.

During the fourth quarter of 2021, we early adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, effective January 1, 2021 and retrospectively recasted interim prior period amounts presented in this press release.
