NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Parametric Technology Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries and have been prepared by us in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our fiscal year end is September 30. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year’s statements to conform with the fiscal 2000 presentation. The year end consolidated balance sheet was derived from our audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of those of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods indicated. While we believe that the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1999.

The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the remainder of the fiscal year.

2. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect, if any, of outstanding stock options using the “treasury stock” method. The following table presents the calculation for both basic and diluted EPS:

	Three months ended			Six months ended
	April 3, 1999	April 1, 2000		April 3, 1999	April 1, 2000
Net income (loss)	$10,549	$(5,846	)	$40,540	$ 4,535

Weighted average shares outstanding	267,955	275,107		268,314	273,749
Dilutive effect of employee stock options	7,532	—		6,577	14,623

Diluted shares outstanding	275,487	275,107		274,891	288,372

Basic EPS	$ 0.04	$ (0.02	)	$ 0.15	$ 0.02
Diluted EPS	$ 0.04	$ (0.02	)	$ 0.15	$ 0.02

Options to purchase 10.9 million and 14.4 million shares for the second quarter and first six months of 1999 and 2.0 million and 4.0 million shares for the second quarter and first six months of 2000 were outstanding but were not included in the computations of diluted EPS because the price of the options was greater than the average market price of the common stock for the period reported. For the second quarter of 2000, the dilutive effect of an additional 14.9 million options was excluded from the computation of diluted EPS as the effect was anti-dilutive with the loss.

3. Facilities

In December 1999, we sold land and certain improvements under construction for $30.8 million and entered into a lease covering approximately 381,000 square feet of office space in the Boston area that will allow us to consolidate and replace our Waltham operations. Occupancy and rent should begin in December 2000 and expire in December 2012, subject to completion of construction.

4. New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 requires companies to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities, with the instruments measured at fair value. The accounting for changes in fair value, gains or losses, depends on the intended use of the derivative and its resulting designation. Originally, the statement had been effective for all quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which postponed the adoption of SFAS No. 133 until fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. We plan to implement SFAS No. 133 in our fiscal year 2001. We believe that the adoption of this statement will not have a significant effect on our consolidated financial statements.

5. Segment Information

During 1999, we adopted SFAS No. 131, Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, which changes the way public companies report information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Our chief operating decision making group is our executive officers.

We operate within a single industry segment—computer software and related services. We have two major product categories within that one segment: (1) our computer-aided design, manufacturing and engineering (CAD/CAM/CAE) solutions including our flagship Pro/ENGINEER® design software, which provides flexible engineering solutions to our customers and (2) our Web-based Windchill® information management software, which provides collaborative product commerce (CPC) solutions to our customers using Internet technologies to collaboratively develop, build and manage products throughout their entire lifecycle. Our products are sold worldwide by our sales force and distributors.

Our revenue by product category and for the geographic regions in which we operate is presented below:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statement

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that describe our anticipated financial results and growth based on our plans and assumptions. Important information about the basis for these plans and assumptions and certain factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from these statements is contained below and in “Important Factors That May Affect Future Results” beginning on page 13.

Business Overview

Historically, our core business focus has been to provide mechanical CAD/CAM/CAE solutions to customers through our flagship Pro/ENGINEER® design software, and we remain committed to providing our customers with industry leading flexible engineering solutions based on this software. Additionally, we believe that there is growing demand for collaborative product commerce (CPC) solutions from manufacturers who, in order to stay competitive, must deliver more custom-tailored goods faster and at lower prices while relying more than ever before on geographically dispersed and dynamic supply chains. CPC solutions include software and services that use Internet technologies to permit individuals—no matter what role they have in the commercialization of a product, no matter what computer-based tools they use, no matter where they are located geographically or in the supply chain—to collaboratively develop, build and manage products throughout their entire lifecycle. In order to pursue this opportunity, we expanded our focus in 1999 to encompass the complete CPC solution offered by our Web-based Windchill® information management software and are continuing this focus in 2000. This expanded focus allows us to increase the business impact our customers derive from our flexible engineering solutions and provides our customers with the additional tools they need to elevate their products into enterprise assets and to leverage these assets into new business opportunities.

As a result of the difficulty we have been experiencing in transitioning from a one product company to a multi-product company and in balancing our efforts between our traditional CAD/CAM/CAE solutions business and our growing CPC solutions business, we are reorganizing ourselves to provide more discrete product line focus and accountability and to improve our overall profitability. The reorganization will result in the creation of the following business units:

Windchill and Web-based Collaboration Solutions. This business unit is responsible for expanding our reach in the CPC market in terms of product content, collaboration and sourcing services. It will encompass our efforts to develop new partnerships, business relationships and indirect channels of distribution in support of our web infrastructure efforts.

MCAD Products and Flexible Engineering Solutions. This business unit is responsible for the Pro/ENGINEER product line as well as other applications within our i-Series of flexible engineering solutions. It will focus full-time on the needs of the mechanical CAD/CAM/CAE marketplace.

Each unit will have responsibility for research and development, marketing, professional services, customer support and indirect distribution. The sales force will continue to exist as a separate organization comprised of two divisions, primary and major accounts. Each division will include a group focused on the CAD/CAM/CAE solutions. In addition, we are working on a new initiative, called Netmarkets, that will enable us to address opportunities to utilize our Windchill technology in the business-to-business exchange marketplace. We also intend to review potential alliances and partnerships with large system integrators, application service providers and entities with complementary software products. Finally, we plan to reduce our existing cost structure to improve our profitability, which will result in a nonrecurring charge to be taken in the third quarter of 2000. The charge is currently under review and is now anticipated to be in the range of $15-20 million, consisting primarily of a reduction of approximately 300 people from the second quarter’s ending headcount, associated facility closures and other write-offs.

Results of Operations

The following is an overview of our results of operations:

Total revenue was $227.1 million for the second quarter of 2000 compared to $263.2 million for the second quarter of 1999. Total revenue was $466.1 million for the first six months of 2000 compared to $513.4 million for the first six months of 1999.

Our year-over-year second quarter revenue declined 14% reflecting a 38% decrease in software license revenue offset by a 14% increase in service revenue. Our year-over-year six month revenue declined 9% reflecting a 30% decrease in software license revenue offset by a 16% increase in service revenue.

Windchill revenue increased to $39.4 million in the second quarter of 2000 from $11.9 million for the same period in 1999.

CAD/CAM/CAE revenue decreased to $187.7 million in the second quarter of 2000 from $251.4 million for the same period in 1999.

Net loss was $5.8 million for the second quarter of 2000 compared to net income of $10.5 million for the second quarter of 1999. Net income decreased $36.0 million to $4.5 million for the first six months of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999.

Pro forma net income, which excludes the amortization of goodwill and intangible assets and acquisition and nonrecurring charges, decreased $45.4 million to $0.5 million for the second quarter of 2000 and decreased $72.7 million to $18.1 million for the first six months of 2000 from the comparable periods in 1999.

The following table shows certain consolidated financial data as a percentage of our total revenue for the second quarter and first six months of 1999 and 2000.

REVENUE. As a result of our expanded focus on providing CPC solutions, software and service revenue from our Windchill products grew to 17% of total revenue in both the second quarter and first six months of 2000, up from 5% and 3% in the second quarter and first six months of 1999, respectively. Overall, however, total revenue decreased 14% and 9% for the second quarter and first six months of 2000 compared to the second quarter and first six months of 1999, respectively.

License revenue decreased 38% and 30% for the second quarter and first six months of 2000 compared to the second quarter and first six months of 1999, respectively. While we continue to derive our license revenue primarily from software related to the mechanical CAD/CAM/CAE industry, our CPC software solutions are starting to comprise an increasing percentage of total license revenue. In order to meet what we believe is a growing demand for our CPC solutions, over the past two years we have channeled significant resources into this product line and continue to experience difficulty in transitioning from a one product company to a multi-product company.

Our efforts during this transition period have resulted in a greater Internet-based CPC focus, which has in turn reduced the sales capacity for the CAD/CAM/CAE product line and contributed to a loss of market share. Market demand in certain segments of the CAD/CAM/CAE industry also appears to have slowed. In addition, we changed the way we distribute our CAD/CAM/CAE products to smaller business segments as part of a master distribution arrangement with Rand A Technology Corporation. Rand’s level of revenue contribution has been lower than originally anticipated; however, their performance is improving. Our results could be adversely affected if Rand is unable to achieve certain sales levels or make existing or future payments.

Our emphasis on larger, more enterprise-wide solutions, has resulted in longer and less predictable sales cycles and increased our dependence on consummating larger transactions in general. During the first two quarters of 2000 we closed fewer large deals than we expected which explains, in part, the fact that unit sales were down 42% in the second quarter of 2000 and 37% for the first six months of 2000 compared to the same periods in 1999. We also experienced some weakness with existing customers in all geographic regions during this period.

Finally, the average selling price of our Pro/ENGINEER software decreased 10% in the second quarter and first six months of 2000 compared to the second quarter and first six months of 1999. This may be attributable in part to increased competition from native Windows®-based products offering more limited functionality at lower costs. Additional factors affecting our revenue and operating results are included in “Important Factors That May Affect Future Results” below.

Our service revenue is derived from the sale of software maintenance contracts and the performance of training and consulting services. Service revenue, which has a lower gross profit margin than license revenue, accounted for 46% and 61% of total revenue in the second quarter of 1999 and 2000, respectively, and 46% and 59% of total revenue in the first six months of 1999 and 2000, respectively. Service revenue increased 14% and 16% in the second quarter and first six months of 2000 compared to the same periods in 1999. This increase is the result of growth in our installed customer base and increased training and consulting services performed for these customers. We expect service revenue to continue to increase in absolute dollars for the remainder of 2000.

We derived 63% and 62% of our total revenue from sales to international customers in the second quarter of 1999 and 2000, respectively. For the first six months of 1999 and 2000, we derived 58% and 59% of our total revenue from sales to international customers, respectively. We licensed over 90% of our products directly to end-user customers in each of the first six months of 1999 and 2000 with the remainder licensed through third-party distributors, primarily Rand.

REVENUE BY GEOGRAPHY (IN MILLIONS)

Looking forward, our overall revenue levels will be dependent on our ability to successfully balance our efforts between our traditional CAD/CAM/CAE business and our growing CPC business. Our challenge is to effectively manage and improve performance in our mechanical CAD/CAM/CAE business while continuing to aggressively pursue a new product area that presents significant growth opportunities. Because our reorganization into business units and overall transition to a multi-product business model are in process, we are cautious in our overall near-term outlook. Nevertheless, we believe the actions we are taking internally will result in improved performance over time.

COSTS AND EXPENSES. Our operating expenses have been based on anticipated future revenue and are relatively fixed for the short term. We have been incurring expenses that would support revenues in excess of current levels in order to implement our strategic initiatives, particularly as they relate to our Windchill CPC solutions. Given the lower than expected revenue in the last two quarters, we plan to reduce our existing cost structure to improve profitability. This will result in a nonrecurring charge to be taken in the third quarter of 2000 (see “Business Overview” above).

COST OF LICENSE REVENUE. Our cost of license revenue consists of costs associated with reproducing and distributing software and documentation and the payment of royalties. Cost of license revenue as a percent of license revenue was 2% and 3% for the second quarter and first six months of 1999, respectively, and 5% for both the second quarter and first six months of 2000. The increase in cost of license revenue as a percent of license revenue is primarily a result of paying higher royalties on Windchill versus mechanical CAD/CAM/CAE revenue.

COST OF SERVICE REVENUE. Our cost of service revenue includes costs associated with training and consulting personnel, such as salaries and related costs and travel, and costs related to software maintenance, including costs incurred for customer support personnel and the release of maintenance updates. Cost of service revenue as a percentage of service revenue has increased to 43% from 39% and to 42% from 38% for the second quarter and first six months of 2000, respectively, from the corresponding periods of 1999. This increase reflects our investment in the staffing necessary to support our new product offerings, principally our Windchill CPC solutions.

SALES AND MARKETING. Our sales and marketing expenses primarily include salaries and benefits, sales commissions, travel and facility costs. These costs increased 2% and 6% for the second quarter and first six months of 2000, respectively, compared to 1999, primarily due to the higher average cost per sales employee, as we are hiring a more experienced Windchill CPC solutions sales force. Total sales and marketing employees decreased from 2,194 at April 3, 1999 to 1,851 at April 1, 2000 primarily due to the sales force reorganizations during 1999.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Our research and development expenses consist principally of salaries and benefits, expenses associated with product translations, costs of computer equipment used in software development and facility expenses. These costs increased 24% and 21% for the second quarter and first six months of 2000, respectively, compared to 1999, primarily due to our continued investment in research and development, particularly in connection with our Windchill CPC solutions products and the impact of our InPart, Division and auxilium acquisitions in 1999.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Our general and administrative expenses include costs of our corporate, finance, information technology, human resources and administrative functions. These costs increased 20% and 9% for the second quarter and first six months of 2000, respectively, compared to 1999, primarily due to higher administrative costs associated with the changing revenue mix and the growth in our information technology infrastructure.

AMORTIZATION OF GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS. These costs represent the amortization of intangible assets acquired, including developed technology, goodwill, customer lists, assembled work force and trade names. The increased amortization of $6.2 million and $13.1 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2000, respectively, compared to 1999, primarily resulted from our 1999 acquisitions of InPart, Division and auxilium.

ACQUISITION AND NONRECURRING CHARGES

Acquisitions

InPart. In October 1998, we purchased InPart Design, Inc., the developer of DesignSuite, a Web-based repository of 3D mechanical component data, as well as the developer of enterprise software applications focused on Web-based component and supplier management, which was founded in 1996. We allocated the purchase price of $38.1 million to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on our estimate of fair value. The values assigned included $741,000 for net liabilities assumed, $10.6 million for purchased in-process research and development (R&D), $4.1 million for developed technology, $1.1 million for customer lists, $200,000 for an assembled workforce and $300,000 for trade names. The excess purchase price over the amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill of $22.5 million.

Division. In March 1999, we purchased Division Group plc, a developer of enterprise product data visualization, simulation, and integration tools. We allocated the purchase price of $48.1 million to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on our estimates of fair value. The values assigned included $555,000 for net assets acquired, $9.0 million for purchased in-process R&D, $3.3 million for developed technology, $2.0 million for customer lists, $970,000 for an assembled workforce and $2.5 million for trade names. The excess purchase price over the amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill of $29.8 million.

auxilium. In March 1999, we purchased auxilium inc., a developer of web-based software tools for the integration of legacy systems, databases and applications, which was founded in 1997. We allocated the purchase price of $101.7 million to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on our estimates of fair value. The values assigned included $182,000 for net liabilities assumed, $18.6 million for purchased in-process R&D, $700,000 for developed technology, $5.0 million for customer lists, $630,000 for an assembled workforce and $6.0 million for trade names. The excess purchase price over the amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill of $70.9 million.

In the opinion of management, the purchased in-process R&D for the acquisitions of InPart, Division and auxilium had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no alternative future use. Accordingly, we recorded a nonrecurring charge of $27.6 million during the second quarter of 1999 and $38.2 million for the first six months of 1999. For additional information about these acquisitions, see Item 7 of our 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Nonrecurring Charges

Sales Force Reorganizations. During the first quarter of 1999, we reorganized our sales force and, in connection with this action, incurred a restructuring charge of $3.2 million for the severance and termination benefits of approximately 170 people who were terminated during the first quarter of 1999 in accordance with management’s plans. During the second quarter of 1999, we incurred a restructuring charge of $5.8 million for the severance and termination benefits of approximately 150 people in connection with the integration of our sales and related support groups. All amounts related to terminated employees were paid in 1999.

Facility Consolidation and Asset Impairment. During the second quarter of 1999, we incurred a restructuring charge of $1.4 million for the consolidation of certain excess leased facilities. Also, in the second quarter we recorded an impairment loss of $4.7 million on certain intangible assets related to our industrial design (CDRS) activities. Due to acquisitions and the development of new technology, the carrying value of these assets was impaired.

OTHER INCOME, NET. Our other income, (net) includes interest income, interest expense, costs of hedging contracts, the gain or loss from the translation of results for subsidiaries for which the U.S. dollar is the functional currency and other charges incurred in connection with financing customer contracts. For the second quarter of 1999, we reported other income of $728,000 compared to $393,000 for the second quarter of 2000. For the first six months of 1999, we reported other income of $2.7 million compared to other income of $1.0 million for the first six months of 2000. The decrease is primarily due to lower foreign exchange gains.

INCOME TAXES. Our effective tax rate for the first six months of 2000 was 31% compared with 42% for the corresponding period in 1999. The difference between our effective tax rate and the statutory federal income tax rate of 35% was due primarily to the use of Computervision net operating losses in the first six months of 2000 and the non-deductibility of certain acquisition and nonrecurring charges in the first six months of 1999. On a pro forma basis, which excludes amortization of goodwill and intangible assets and acquisition and nonrecurring charges, our effective tax rate for both the first six months of 1999 and 2000 was 30%.

EMPLOYEES. The number of worldwide employees was 5,051 at April 3, 1999 compared with 4,998 at September 30, 1999 and 5,151 at April 1, 2000. The increase over the prior year is primarily a result of growth in our professional services and research and development organizations, partially offset by a decrease in the sales force.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our operating activities, the proceeds from our issuance of stock under stock plans and existing cash and investments provided sufficient resources to fund our employee base, capital assets needs, stock repurchases, acquisitions and financing needs, in the first half of 1999 and 2000.

As of April 1, 2000, cash and investments totaled $401.5 million, up from $353.9 million at September 30, 1999. The primary reason for the increase in cash and investments during the first six months of 2000 was $77.0 million in proceeds from the issuance of common stock under our stock plans and $30.8 million from the sale of land and certain improvements, partially offset by $22.3 million in expenditures to acquire property and equipment and $19.9 million for the repurchase of treasury stock. Our investment portfolio is diversified among security types, industries and individual issuers. Our investments are generally liquid and investment grade. The portfolio is primarily invested in short-term securities to minimize interest rate risk and to facilitate rapid deployment in the event of immediate cash needs.

Cash generated from operating activities was $62.0 million in the first six months of 1999, compared to cash used of $6.9 million for the first six months of 2000. The decrease in cash generated from operating activities was primarily due to lower net income and the payment of income taxes of $43.3 million in the first six months of 2000 versus $4.4 million in the first six months of 1999.

In the first six months of 1999 and 2000, we acquired $15.2 million and $22.3 million, respectively, of capital equipment consisting principally of computer equipment, software and office equipment. In the first six months of 1999 and 2000, we made payments for acquisitions of $70.3 million and $7.9 million, respectively.

In the first six months of 1999, we used $50.0 million of net cash for financing activities for the repurchase of $65.0 million of common stock, offset by $15.0 million of proceeds from the issuance of common stock under our stock plans. We generated $57.1 million of net cash from financing activities during the first six months of 2000 comprised of $77.0 million from the issuance of common stock under our stock plans, offset by $19.9 million for the repurchase of common stock. Through April 1, 2000, we had repurchased 11.9 million of the 20.0 million shares authorized by the Board of Directors to be repurchased under our approved repurchase program. The repurchased shares under this repurchase program will be used for stock option exercises, employee stock purchase plans and potential acquisitions. We repurchased 856,000 shares in the first six months of 2000 and we expect to repurchase shares during the remainder of 2000 as determined by management.

In December 1999, we sold land and certain improvements under construction for approximately $30.8 million and entered into a lease covering approximately 381,000 square feet of office space in the Boston area that will allow us to consolidate and replace our Waltham operations. Occupancy and rent should begin in December 2000 and expire in December 2012, subject to completion of construction.

We believe that existing cash and short-term investments together with cash generated from operations and the issuance of common stock under our stock plans will be sufficient to meet our working capital, financing and capital expenditure requirements through at least the end of the current fiscal year. As a result of the decline in our revenue performance we are formulating plans to reduce our existing cost structure to improve profitability which will result in a nonrecurring charge to be taken in the third quarter of 2000 which will be funded by existing cash (see “Business Overview” above).

New Accounting Pronouncements

In accordance with recently issued accounting pronouncements, we will be required to comply with certain changes in accounting rules and regulations. See Note 4 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein.

Important Factors That May Affect Future Results

The following are some of the factors that could affect our future results. They should be considered in connection with evaluating forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and otherwise made by us or on our behalf, because these factors could cause actual results and conditions to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements.

I. Operational Considerations

Our operating results fluctuate within each quarter and from quarter-to-quarter making our future revenues and operating results difficult to predict

While our sales cycle varies substantially from customer to customer, we usually realize a high percentage of our revenue in the third month of each fiscal quarter, and this revenue tends to be concentrated in the later part of that month. Our orders early in a quarter will not generally occur at a rate which, if sustained throughout the quarter, would be sufficient to assure that we will meet our revenue targets for any particular quarter. Moreover, our sales force reorganizations in 1999, our shift in business emphasis to a more solutions-oriented sales process—undertaken in part to increase our average order size—and our focus on Windchill CPC solutions have resulted in longer and more unpredictable sales cycles for products and services. Accordingly, our quarterly results may be difficult to predict prior to the end of the quarter. Any inability to obtain large orders or orders in large volumes or to make shipments or perform services in the period immediately preceding the end of any particular quarter may cause the results for that quarter to fall short of our revenue targets. In addition, our operating expenses are based on expected future revenue and are relatively fixed for the short term. As a result, a revenue shortfall in any quarter could cause our earnings for that quarter to fall below expectations as well. Any failure to meet our quarterly revenue or earnings targets could adversely impact the market price of our stock.

Other factors that may also cause quarter-to-quarter revenue and earnings fluctuation, include the following:

our sales incentive structure is weighted more heavily toward the end of the fiscal year, and the rate of revenue growth for the first quarter historically has been lower and more difficult to predict than that for the fourth quarter of the immediately preceding fiscal year;

variability in the levels of professional service revenues and the mix of our license and service revenues; and

declines in license revenue may adversely affect the size of our installed base and our level of service revenue.

In addition, the levels of quarterly or annual software or service revenue in general, or for particular geographic areas, may not be comparable to those achieved in previous periods.

We may not be able to implement new initiatives successfully

Part of our success in the past has resulted from our ability to implement new initiatives. Our future operating results will continue to depend upon:

the successful implementation of a divisionalized business unit structure, including the realignment of internal functions, the management of divisionalized processes and effective mitigation of disruption that may result from organizational change;

the success of our sales force reorganization initiatives, including

—our shift from point sales to solution sales,

—our shift from geography-based to named-account sales,

—the ability of our sales reps to learn and sell our products, and

—Rand’s and other distributor’s ability to perform, including building a distributor network and competing successfully in the small business segment of the mechanical CAD/CAM/CAE arena;

our ability to anticipate and meet evolving customer requirements in the CPC arena and successfully deliver products and services at an enterprise level; and

our ability to identify and penetrate additional industry sectors that represent growth opportunities.

We may not be successful in integrating recently acquired businesses or products

We have increased our product range and customer base in the recent past due in part to acquisitions. We may acquire additional businesses or product lines in the future. The success of any acquisition may be dependent upon our ability to integrate the acquired business or products successfully and to retain key personnel and customers associated with the acquisition. If we fail to do so, or if the costs of or length of time for integration increase significantly, it could negatively affect our business.

We are dependent on key personnel whose loss could cause delays in our product development and sales efforts

Our success depends upon our ability to attract and retain highly skilled technical, managerial and sales personnel. Competition for such personnel in the high technology industry is intense. We assume that we will continue to be able to attract and retain such personnel. The failure to do so, however, could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We must continually modify and enhance our products to keep pace with changing technology, and we may experience delays in developing and debugging our software

We must continually modify and enhance our products to keep pace with changes in computer software, hardware and database technology, as well as emerging standards in the Internet software industry. Our ability to remain competitive will depend on our ability to:

enhance our current offerings and develop new products and services that keep pace with technological developments through

—internal research and development,

—acquisition of technology, and

—strategic partnerships;

meet evolving customer requirements, especially ease-of-use;

provide adequate funding for development efforts; and

license appropriate technology from third parties.

Also, as is common in the computer software industry, we may from time to time experience delays in our product development and “debugging” efforts. Our performance could be hurt by significant delays in developing, completing or shipping new or enhanced products. Among other things, such delays could cause us to incorrectly predict the fiscal quarter in which we will realize revenue from the shipment of the new or enhanced products and give our competitors a greater opportunity to market competing products.

We may be unable to price our products competitively or distribute them effectively

Our success is tied to our ability to price our products and services competitively and to deliver them efficiently, including our ability to:

provide products with functionality that our customers want at a price they can afford;

build appropriate direct distribution channels;

utilize the Internet for sales; and

build appropriate indirect distribution channels through Rand or others.

We depend on sales from outside the United States that could be adversely affected by changes in the international markets

A significant portion of our business comes from outside the United States. Accordingly, our performance could be adversely affected by economic downturns in Europe or the Asia/Pacific region. Another consequence of significant international business is that a large percentage of our revenues and expenses are denominated in foreign currencies that fluctuate in value. Although we may enter into foreign exchange forward contracts and foreign exchange option contracts to offset a portion of the foreign exchange fluctuations, unanticipated events may have a material impact on our results. Other risks associated with international business include:

changes in regulatory practices and tariffs;

staffing and managing foreign operations, including the difficulties in providing cost-effective, equity-based compensation to attract skilled workers;

longer collection cycles in certain areas;

potential changes in tax and other laws;

greater difficulty in protecting intellectual property rights; and

general economic and political conditions.

We may not be able to obtain copyright or patent protection for the software products we develop or our other trademarks

Our software products and our other trademarks, including our company names, product names and logos, are proprietary. We protect our intellectual property rights in these items by relying on copyrights, trademarks, patents and common law safeguards, including trade secret protection, as well as restrictions on disclosures and transferability contained in our agreements with other parties. Despite these measures, there can be no assurance that the laws of all relevant jurisdictions will afford adequate protection to our products and other intellectual property. The software industry is characterized by frequent litigation regarding copyright, patent and other intellectual property rights. While we have not, to date, had any significant claims of this type asserted against us, there can be no assurance that someone will not assert such claims against us with respect to existing or future products or other intellectual property or that, if asserted, we would prevail in such claims. In the event a lawsuit of this type is filed, it could result in significant expense to us and divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel, whether or not we ultimately prevail.

II. Mechanical CAD/CAM/CAE-Related Considerations

Increasing competition in the mechanical CAD/CAM/CAE marketplace may reduce our revenues

There are an increasing number of competitive mechanical CAD/CAM/CAE products. Despite our belief that our products are technologically superior, some competitive products have reached a level of functionality whereby product differentiation is less likely, in and of itself, to dislodge incumbent CAD systems, given the training and other startup costs associated with system replacement. Increased competition and market acceptance of these competitive products could have a negative effect on pricing and revenues for our products, which could have a material adverse affect on our results.

In addition, our CAD/CAM/CAE software is capable of performing on a variety of platforms. Several of our competitors focus on single platform applications, particularly Windows-based platforms. There can be no assurance that we will have a competitive advantage with multiple platform applications.

We continue to enhance our existing products by releasing updates. Our competitive position and operating results could suffer if:

we fail to anticipate or to respond adequately to customer requirements or to technological developments, particularly those of our competitors;

we delay the development, production, testing, marketing or availability of new or enhanced products or services; or

customers fail to accept such products or services.

Growth in the CAD/CAM/CAE industry appears to have slowed

Growth in certain segments of the mechanical CAD/CAM/CAE industry appears to have slowed and, coupled with decreased functional differentiation among flexible engineering tools, may affect our ability to penetrate the market for new customers and recapture our market share. We believe our emphasis on Windchill CPC solutions will allow us to differentiate our flexible engineering products from the competition and invigorate sales of those products. However, the strategy may not be successful or may take longer than we plan. There could be a material adverse affect on our operating results in any quarter if these assumptions prove to be incorrect.

III. CPC and Windchill Strategy Considerations

We are implementing a new strategy to capitalize on an Internet-based, business-to-business market opportunity known as Collaborative Product Commerce (CPC). It may be that our assumptions about the CPC market opportunity are wrong, which could adversely affect our results

We have identified CPC as a new market opportunity for us, and have devoted significant resources toward capitalizing on that opportunity. CPC solutions include software and services that use Internet technologies to permit employees, customers, suppliers and others to collaboratively develop, build and manage products throughout their entire lifecycle. Because the market for software products that allow companies to collaborate on product information on an enterprise-wide level is newly emerging and because companies have not traditionally linked customers and suppliers in this process directly, we cannot be certain as to the size of this market, whether it will grow, or whether companies will elect to utilize our products rather than attempt to develop applications internally or through other sources.

In addition, companies that have already invested substantial resources in other methods of sharing product information in the design-through-manufacture process may be reluctant to adopt a new approach that may replace, limit or compete with their existing systems or methods. We expect that we will continue to need to pursue intensive marketing and sales efforts to educate prospective customers about the uses and benefits of our products. Demand for and market acceptance of our products will be affected by the success of these efforts.

Our Windchill software, which is central to our CPC strategy, is relatively new and is not yet well established in the marketplace

The success of our CPC strategy will depend in large part on the ability of our Windchill solutions to meet customer expectations, especially with respect to:

ease of installation;

ease of use;

full capability, functionality and performance;

ability to support a large user base; and

quality and efficiency of the services we perform relating to implementation and customization.

The software is still relatively new. If our customers cannot successfully deploy large-scale implementation projects or if they determine that we are unable to accommodate large-scale deployments, our operating results may be affected.

In addition, implementing a Windchill software solution on an enterprise level takes longer and requires greater expertise than does installing our other products. Our Windchill software must integrate with existing computer systems and software programs used by our customers and their partners. Because we are one of the first companies to offer a CPC solution, many customers will be facing these integration issues for the first time, particularly in the context of collaborating with members of the extended enterprise, including customers and supply chain partners. Our customers could become dissatisfied with our products or services if integrations prove to be difficult, costly or time consuming, and our operating results may be affected.

Competition among providers of CPC solutions may increase, which may reduce our profits and limit or reduce our market share

The market for CPC solutions is new, highly fragmented, rapidly changing and increasingly competitive. We expect competition to intensify, which could result in price reductions for our products and services, reduced gross margins and loss of market share. Our primary competition comes from:

in-house development efforts by potential customers or partners;

other vendors of engineering information management software; and

larger, more well-known enterprise software providers seeking to extend the functionality of their products to encompass CPC.

In addition, our professional services organization may face increasing competition for follow-on customization services from other third-party consultants and service providers.

If use of the Internet does not continue to develop or reliably support the demands placed on it by electronic commerce, we may experience a loss of sales

Our success depends upon continued growth in the use of the Internet as a medium of commerce. Although the Internet is experiencing rapid growth in the overall number of users, this growth is a recent phenomenon and may not continue. Furthermore, the use of the Internet for commerce is still relatively new. As a result, a sufficiently broad base of companies and their supply chain partners may not adopt or continue to use the Internet as a medium of exchanging product information. Our CPC strategy would be seriously harmed if:

use of the Internet does not continue to increase or increases more slowly than expected;

the infrastructure for the Internet does not effectively support enterprises and their supply chain partners;

the Internet does not create a viable commercial marketplace, thereby inhibiting the development of electronic commerce and reducing the demand for our products; or

concerns over the secure transmission of confidential information over public networks inhibit the growth of the Internet as a means of conducting commercial transactions.

Our CPC strategy will also be seriously harmed if the Internet infrastructure is not able to support the demands placed on it by increased usage or the limited capacity of networks to transmit large amounts of data, or if delays in the development or adoption of new equipment standards or protocols required to handle increased levels of Internet activity, or increased governmental regulation, cause the Internet to lose its viability as a means of communication between manufacturers and their customers and supply chain partners.

IV. Other Considerations

Our stock price, which may reflect an Internet valuation, has been highly volatile; this may make it harder to resell your shares at the time and at a price that is favorable to you

Market prices for securities of software companies have generally been volatile. In particular, the market price of our common stock has been and may continue to be subject to significant fluctuations.

In addition, our expanded focus on delivering Internet-based solutions may cause us to be viewed, in part, as an Internet company. The trading prices of Internet stocks in general have been unusually high under conventional valuation standards such as price-to-earnings and price-to-sales ratios and have experienced fluctuations unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. The trading prices and valuations of these stocks, and of ours, may not be sustained. Any negative change in the public’s perception of the prospects of Internet or e-commerce companies, or of PTC as an Internet company, could depress our stock price regardless of our results.

Also, a large percentage of our common stock traditionally has been held by institutional investors. Consequently, actions with respect to our common stock by certain of these institutional investors could have a significant impact on the market price of the stock. For more information, please see our proxy statement with respect to our most recent annual meeting of stockholders and Schedules 13D and 13G filed with the SEC with respect to our common stock.

We are currently defending a securities class action lawsuit in which we could be liable for damages

Certain class action lawsuits were filed by shareholders in the fourth quarter of 1998 against us and certain of our current and former officers and directors in the U.S. District Court in Massachusetts claiming violations of the federal securities laws based on alleged misrepresentations regarding our anticipated revenue and earnings for the third quarter of 1998. The plaintiffs in these lawsuits joined together to file a consolidated and amended complaint in the second quarter of 1999. The consolidated and amended complaint seeks unspecified damages. We believe the claims made in the consolidated and amended complaint are without merit, and we intend to defend them vigorously. In the third quarter of 1999 we filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated and amended complaint. We cannot predict the outcome of this motion or the ultimate resolution of this action at this time, and there can be no assurance that the litigation will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

Our operations in Europe may be affected by the European Union’s conversion to a common currency

The conversion of major European countries to a common legal currency creates uncertainties for companies like us that do significant business in Europe. These uncertainties include technical adaptation of internal systems to accommodate euro-denominated transactions, long-term competitive implications of the conversion and the effect on market risk with respect to financial instruments.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Other than as disclosed in this report on Form 10-Q, there have been no significant changes in our market risk exposure as described in Item 7A: “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” to our 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which is incorporated herein by reference.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Certain class action lawsuits were filed by shareholders in the fourth quarter of 1998 against us and certain of our current and former officers and directors in the U.S. District Court in Massachusetts claiming violations of the federal securities laws based on alleged misrepresentations regarding our anticipated revenue and earnings for the third quarter of fiscal 1998. The plaintiffs in these lawsuits joined together to file a consolidated and amended complaint in the second quarter of 1999. The consolidated and amended complaint seeks unspecified damages. We believe the claims made in the consolidated and amended complaint are without merit, and we intend to defend them vigorously. In the third quarter of 1999 we filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated and amended complaint. We cannot predict the outcome of this motion or the ultimate resolution of this action at this time, and there can be no assurance that the litigation will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

We are also subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. We currently believe that resolving these matters will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
