The combination of a strong market position, industry and geographic diversification, a strong balance sheet, and excellent cash flow, positions Autodesk for continued success."

Operational Highlights

In addition to favorable currency exchange rates, Autodesk's performance in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 was driven by continued revenue growth of model-based 3D design solutions, 2D vertical products, emerging economies, as well as total upgrade and maintenance revenue growth.

Combined revenue from the Company's model-based 3D solutions, which includes Inventor, Revit, Civil 3D, NavisWorks, Robobat, and Moldflow, increased 36 percent over the second quarter of fiscal 2008 to $166 million and comprised 27 percent of total revenue for the quarter. Excluding Moldflow, which was acquired during the quarter, model-based 3D solutions grew 31 percent to $159 million. Autodesk shipped approximately 36,000 commercial seats of its model-based 3D design products, including approximately 10,000 commercial seats of Inventor and 26,000 seats of its Architecture Engineering and Construction products -- Revit, Civil 3D, NavisWorks, and Robobat. In addition, revenue from 2D vertical products increased 16 percent compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2008.

Revenue from the emerging economies increased 40 percent over the second quarter of fiscal 2008 to $114 million and represented 18 percent of total revenue. EMEA revenue was $267 million, an increase of 31 percent as reported over the second quarter of fiscal 2008, and 15 percent at constant currency. Revenue in Asia Pacific was $150 million, an increase of 18 percent as reported year-over-year, and 11 percent at constant currency. Revenue in the Americas increased 4 percent over the second quarter of fiscal 2008 to $203 million, despite continued economic headwinds.

Upgrade revenue and maintenance revenue combined increased 34 percent over the second quarter of fiscal 2008 to $238 million. Maintenance revenue increased 36 percent compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2008 to $180 million, or 29 percent of total revenue.

        Autodesk,  Inc.
        Reconciliation  of  GAAP  financial  measures  to  non-GAAP  financial  measures
        (In  millions,  except  per  share  data)

        To  supplement  our  consolidated  financial  statements  presented  on  a  GAAP
        basis,  Autodesk  provides  investors  with  certain  non-GAAP  measures
        including  non-GAAP  net  income,  non-GAAP  net  income  per  share,  non-GAAP
        cost  of  license  and  other  revenue,  non-GAAP  gross  margin,  non-GAAP
        operating  expenses,  non-GAAP  income  from  operations,  non-GAAP  interest
        and  other  income,  net  and  non-GAAP  provision  for  income  taxes.    These
        non-GAAP  financial  measures  are  adjusted  to  exclude  certain  costs,
        expenses,  gains  and  losses,  including  stock-based  compensation  expense,
        employee  tax  reimbursements  related  to  our  stock  option  review,
        litigation  expenses,  in-process  research  and  development  expenses,
        restructuring  expenses,  amortization  of  purchased  intangibles,  investment
        impairment  and  income  tax  expenses.    See  our  reconciliation  of  GAAP
        financial  measures  to  non-GAAP  financial  measures  herein.    We  believe
        these  exclusions  are  appropriate  to  enhance  an  overall  understanding  of
        our  past  financial  performance  and  also  our  prospects  for  the  future,  as
        well  as  to  facilitate  comparisons  with  our  historical  operating  results.
        These  adjustments  to  our  GAAP  results  are  made  with  the  intent  of
        providing  both  management  and  investors  a  more  complete  understanding  of
        Autodesk's  underlying  operational  results  and  trends  and  our  marketplace
        performance.    For  example,  the  non-GAAP  results  are  an  indication  of  our
        baseline  performance  before  gains,  losses  or  other  charges  that  are
        considered  by  management  to  be  outside  our  core  operating  results.    In
        addition,  these  non-GAAP  financial  measures  are  among  the  primary
        indicators  management  uses  as  a  basis  for  our  planning  and  forecasting  of
        future  periods.

        There  are  limitations  in  using  non-GAAP  financial  measures  because  the
        non-GAAP  financial  measures  are  not  prepared  in  accordance  with  generally
        accepted  accounting  principles  and  may  be  different  from  non-GAAP
        financial  measures  used  by  other  companies.    The  non-GAAP  financial
        measures  are  limited  in  value  because  they  exclude  certain  items  that  may
        have  a  material  impact  upon  our  reported  financial  results.    The
        presentation  of  this  additional  information  is  not  meant  to  be  considered
        in  isolation  or  as  a  substitute  for  the  directly  comparable  financial
        measures  prepared  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting
        principles  in  the  United  States.    Investors  should  review  the
        reconciliation  of  the  non-GAAP  financial  measures  to  their  most  directly
        comparable  GAAP  financial  measures  as  provided  in  the  tables  accompanying
        this  press  release.

        The  following  table  shows  Autodesk's  non-GAAP  results  reconciled  to
        GAAP  results  included  in  this  release.

        (2)  To  supplement  our  consolidated  financial  statements  presented  on  a
        GAAP  basis,  Autodesk  provides  investors  with  certain  non-GAAP  measures
        including  non-GAAP  net  income,  non-GAAP  net  income  per  share,  non-GAAP
        cost  of  license  and  other  revenue,  non-GAAP  gross  margin,  non-GAAP
        operating  expenses,  non-GAAP  income  from  operations,  non-GAAP  interest  and
        other  income,  net  and  non-GAAP  provision  for  income  taxes.    These  non-GAAP
        financial  measures  are  adjusted  to  exclude  certain  costs,  expenses,  gains
        and  losses,  including  stock-based  compensation  expense,  employee  tax
        reimbursements  related  to  our  stock  option  review,  litigation  expenses,
        in-process  research  and  development  expenses,  restructuring  expenses,
        amortization  of  purchased  intangibles,  investment  impairment  and  income
        tax  expenses.    See  our  reconciliation  of  GAAP  financial  measures  to
        non-GAAP  financial  measures  herein.    We  believe  these  exclusions  are
        appropriate  to  enhance  an  overall  understanding  of  our  past  financial
        performance  and  also  our  prospects  for  the  future,  as  well  as  to
        facilitate  comparisons  with  our  historical  operating  results.    These
        adjustments  to  our  GAAP  results  are  made  with  the  intent  of  providing  both
        management  and  investors  a  more  complete  understanding  of  Autodesk's
        underlying  operational  results  and  trends  and  our  marketplace  performance.
        For  example,  the  non-GAAP  results  are  an  indication  of  our  baseline
        performance  before  gains,  losses  or  other  charges  that  are  considered  by
        management  to  be  outside  our  core  operating  results.    In  addition,  these
        non-GAAP  financial  measures  are  among  the  primary  indicators  management
        uses  as  a  basis  for  our  planning  and  forecasting  of  future  periods.

        There  are  limitations  in  using  non-GAAP  financial  measures  because  the
        non-GAAP  financial  measures  are  not  prepared  in  accordance  with  generally
        accepted  accounting  principles  and  may  be  different  from  non-GAAP
        financial  measures  used  by  other  companies.    The  non-GAAP  financial
        measures  are  limited  in  value  because  they  exclude  certain  items  that  may
        have  a  material  impact  upon  our  reported  financial  results.    The
        presentation  of  this  additional  information  is  not  meant  to  be  considered
        in  isolation  or  as  a  substitute  for  the  directly  comparable  financial
        measures  prepared  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting
        principles  in  the  United  States.    Investors  should  review  the
        reconciliation  of  the  non-GAAP  financial  measures  to  their  most  directly
        comparable  GAAP  financial  measures  as  provided  in  the  tables  accompanying
        this  press  release.
