PTC Announces Preliminary Fourth Quarter FY&#x2019;16 Results;

<font style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">NEEDHAM,
Mass., &#x2013; October 3, 2016 &#x2013; <font style="text-decoration: underline; color: #0000FF">PTC</font> (Nasdaq:
PTC) today announced that preliminary bookings for the fourth
fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2016 are expected to be between
$139 million and $142 million, above the high end of the
company&#x2019;s previous guidance of $111 million to $121 million.
There are two mega deals (&gt;$5 million in bookings) in the
quarter, including a competitive PLM displacement within one of the
top Tier 1 global automotive suppliers, and a worldwide cloud
implementation of PTC&#x2019;s service parts management solution
&#x2013; both a testament to PTC&#x2019;s leading technology position
in these markets.</font></div>

<div style="text-align: left; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; text-indent: 0px">
<font style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">PTC
also now expects its Q4&#x2019;16 bookings subscription mix to be
approximately 70%, significantly exceeding its prior guidance of
46%. Due primarily to the higher than expected subscription mix,
and also the incremental commission expense associated with
bookings and subscription outperformance, we expect GAAP and
non-GAAP revenue, and GAAP and non-GAAP EPS to be below the low end
of our prior guidance.</font></div>

<font style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">In
addition, in support of continued realignment of resources toward
higher growth opportunities and driving long-term margin expansion,
PTC now expects FY&#x2019;16 restructuring charges of approximately
$75 to $80 million, above the $50 million to $70 million range
included in the company&#x2019;s Q3&#x2019;16 form 10-Q filed on
August 11, 2016, and the $40 million to $50 million range included
in our Q4&#x2019;16 guidance on July 20, 2016.</font></div>

<font style="color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">We
offer both perpetual and subscription licensing options to our
customers, as well as monthly software rentals for certain
products. Given the difference in revenue recognition between the
sale of a perpetual software license (revenue is recognized at the
time of sale) and a subscription (revenue is deferred and
recognized ratably over the subscription term), we use bookings for
internal planning, forecasting and reporting of new license and
cloud services transactions. In order to normalize between
perpetual and subscription licenses, we define subscription
bookings as the subscription annualized contract value
(subscription ACV) of new subscription bookings multiplied by a
conversion factor of 2. We arrived at the conversion factor of 2 by
considering a number of variables including pricing, support,
length of term, and renewal rates. We define subscription ACV as
the total value of a new subscription booking divided by the term
of the contract (in days) multiplied by 365. If the term of the
subscription contract is less than a year, the ACV is equal to the
total contract value.</font></div>

<font style="color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">License
and subscription bookings equal subscription bookings (as described
above) plus perpetual license bookings plus any monthly software
rental bookings during the period. Total ACV equals subscription
ACV (as described above) plus the annualized value of incremental
monthly software rental bookings during the period.</font></div>

<font style="color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">Because
subscription bookings is a metric we use to approximate the value
of subscription sales if sold as perpetual licenses, it does not
represent the actual revenue that will be recognized with respect
to subscription sales or that would be recognized if the sales were
perpetual licenses, nor does the annualized value of monthly
software rental bookings represent the value of any such
booking</font></div>
