MD&A
Text added vs the prior filing · source: 10-Q · 2026-07-31
ARR was $2.41 billion as of the end of Q3'26, flat with Q3'25, and grew 2% on a constant currency basis, with growth impacted by the Q2'26 divestiture of the Kepware and ThingWorx businesses. ARR growth excluding the divested businesses in Q3'26 compared to Q3'25 was 7% (9% constant currency).
Cash provided by operating activities grew 7% to $261 million in Q3'26 compared to Q3'25. Free cash flow grew 3% to $249 million in Q3'26 compared to Q3'25, impacted by higher capital expenditures related to moving a major R&D center to a new office. In Q3'26, we made $9 million of divestiture-relat…
Revenue decreased 7% (8% constant currency) in Q3'26 compared to Q3'25, reflecting the divestiture of the Kepware and ThingWorx businesses in Q2'26 as well as lower license revenue due primarily to the shortened duration of a single large contract renewal and expansion. There was $46 million of reve…
Software revenue growth in Q3'26 and the first nine months of FY'26 was impacted by the divestiture of the Kepware and ThingWorx businesses. Software revenue attributable to Kepware and ThingWorx was $45 million and $131 million in Q3'25 and the first nine months of FY'25, respectively.
In addition to the impact of the divestiture, software revenue in Q3’26 was also impacted by a decrease in license revenue, reflecting the shortened duration of a single large contract renewal and expansion in the period, offset by growth in support and cloud services revenue.

ARR grew 3% (1% constant currency) to $2.36 billion as of the end of Q2’26 compared to Q2’25, with growth impacted by the Q2'26 divestiture of Kepware and ThingWorx. Excluding the divested businesses from Q2'25 ARR, ARR growth would have been 11% (8.5% constant currency).
Cash provided by operating activities grew 14% to $321 million in Q2'26 compared to Q2'25. Free cash flow grew 14% to $318 million in Q2'26 compared to Q2'25.

Operating margin grew by approximately 310 basis points in Q2'26 compared to Q2'25, reflecting higher revenue and continued operating disc…
Software revenue growth in Q2'26 and the first six months of FY'26 compared to the corresponding FY'25 periods was driven by license revenue growth, which was driven by the value and duration of contracts that commenced in the period.

How to read Risk Factors (Item 1A) in a 10-Q
A 10-Q risk-factor section usually takes one of three forms; this page classifies it as one of:
- Pointer — the filer states there have been no material changes and points back to the annual 10-K risk factors; there is no own risk text to compare this quarter.
- Partial update — the filer carves out specific updated risks ("except as set forth below"); the excerpts show exactly what is new this quarter.
- Restated in full — the quarter carries the complete risk-factor text. When the prior quarter was only a pointer there is no prior full text to diff against, so the page flags the section as restated instead.
This describes the filing structure only — it is never a judgement on whether risk went up or down.
