ASPEN TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

AspenTech, together with its subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a leading industrial software company that develops solutions to address complex industrial environments where it is critical to optimize the asset design, operations and maintenance lifecycle. Through the Company’s unique combination of product capabilities, deep domain expertise and award-winning innovation, customers across diverse end markets in capital-intensive industries can improve their operational excellence while achieving sustainability goals.

The Company operates globally in 120 countries as of September 30, 2023.

Basis of Presentation

The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2023, and for the first quarters of fiscal 2024 and 2023 pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires us to make judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The actual results that the Company experiences may differ materially from these estimates.

Russia and Ukraine

The Company maintains operations in Russia and licenses software and provides related services to customers in Russia and areas of Ukraine that are not under sanction. The Company had revenues of approximately $7.2 million and $10.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and total assets of approximately $37.8 million and $39.7 million as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively, related to operations in Russia.

The Company may be required to cease or suspend operations in Russia or, should the conflict or the effects of sanctions, export control measures and business restrictions worsen, the Company may voluntarily elect to do so. For example, the Company recently has terminated all engineering services in Russia and the Company has limited its operations to contract renewals only with existing customers. While the Company continues to evaluate the impact, if any, of the various sanctions, export control measures and business restrictions imposed by the United States, other governments, and financial institutions on the ability to do business in Russia and areas of Ukraine that are not under sanction, maintain contracts with vendors and pay employees in Russia, and receive payment from customers in Russia and areas of Ukraine that are not under sanction, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to do so in the future. Any disruption to, or suspension of, the Company’s business and operations in Russia would result in the loss of revenue from the business in Russia and would negatively impact growth. The Company may also suffer reputational harm as a result of continued operations in Russia, which may adversely impact sales and other businesses in other countries.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. There were no material changes to our significant accounting policies during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

(a) Revenue Recognition

Prior to the third quarter of fiscal 2023, Open Systems International, Inc. (“OSI Inc.”) software licenses were primarily sold with professional services and hardware to form an integrated solution for the customer. The professional services and hardware sold with the license significantly customized the underlying functionality and usability of the software. As such, none of the software license, hardware or professional services were considered distinct within the context of the contract and were therefore considered a single performance obligation. Because the integrated solution had no alternative use to the Company and the Company held an enforceable right to payment, revenue was recognized over time (typically one to two years) using an input measure of progress based on the ratio of actual costs incurred to date to the total estimated cost to

complete. For integrated solution contracts executed prior to the third quarter of fiscal 2023, revenue continues to be recognized over time until the implementation is complete.

At the start of the third quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company completed a series of business transformation activities relating to OSI Inc. products and services in conjunction with its ongoing integration activities. As part of a change in the related go-to-market strategy, the Company has invested in tools and processes to simplify and streamline the implementation services to significantly reduce the complexity and interdependency associated with its software. In addition, the Company has identified and trained several third-party implementation service partners to operate autonomously and directly with OSI Inc. customers to implement its products.

Accordingly, effective January 1, 2023, following the completion of these business transformation activities, for all new OSI Inc. contracts entered into after January 1, 2023, the Company accounts for the OSI Inc. software license, hardware, maintenance, and professional services as separate and distinct performance obligations. Software license revenue is recognized at a point in time when control transfers to the customer, which generally aligns with the first day of the contractual term. Hardware revenue is recognized at the point in time when control transfers to the customer, which generally occurs upon delivery. The recognition of maintenance revenue at OSI Inc. is unchanged. Maintenance revenue continues to be recognized ratably over the maintenance term. Professional services revenue is recognized over time (typically one to two years) using the proportional performance method by comparing the costs incurred to the total estimated project costs.

(b) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently issued accounting pronouncements that will be applicable to the Company are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

3. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

Contract assets are subject to credit risk and reviewed in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 326, Financial Instruments Credit Losses. The Company monitors the credit quality of customer contract asset balances on an individual basis, at each reporting date, through credit characteristics, geographic location, and the industry in which they operate. The Company recognizes an impairment on contract assets if, subsequent to contract inception, it becomes probable payment is not collectible. An allowance for expected credit loss reflects losses expected over the remaining term of the contract asset and is determined based upon historical losses, customer-specific factors, and current economic conditions. The potential impact of credit losses on contract assets was immaterial as of September 30, 2023. The Company’s contract assets and contract liabilities were as follows as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023:


	September 30, 2023		June 30, 2023

	(Dollars in Thousands)
Contract assets	$	916,636	$	903,643
Contract liabilities	(144,781)		(181,553)
Net contract assets	$	771,855	$	722,090

The majority of the Company’s contract balances are related to arrangements where revenue is recognized at a point in time and payments are made according to a contractual billing schedule. The change in the net contract asset balance during the three months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to greater revenue recognition as compared to billings. Revenue recognized during the first quarter of fiscal 2024 included $41.0 million that was included in the beginning contract liability balance.

The total cash acquired from Inmation was approximately $6.4 million resulting in a net cash payment of $72.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2022. The Company recognized goodwill of $63.0 million (none of which is expected to be tax deductible) and identifiable intangible assets of $31.5 million, primarily consisting of developed technology and customer relationships, with a useful life of approximately five years for developed technology and seven years for customer relationships.

Inmation’s revenue and net loss included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations during the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $0.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Results included amortization of developed technology and customer relationships of $1.4 million.

Prior to the closing date, Inmation was considered a related party to AspenTech as Emerson Electric Co. (“Emerson” or “Parent Company”), through one of its subsidiaries, held an equity-method investment in Inmation.

7. Fair Value

The Company determines fair value by utilizing a fair value hierarchy that ranks the quality and reliability of the information used in its determination. Fair values determined using “Level 1 inputs” utilize unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Fair values determined using “Level 2 inputs” utilize data points that are observable, such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves for similar assets and liabilities.

Cash equivalents are reported at fair value utilizing quoted market prices in identical markets, or “Level 1 Inputs.” The Company’s cash equivalents consist of short-term money market instruments.

Equity method investments are reported at fair value calculated in accordance with the market approach, utilizing market consensus pricing models with quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable, or “Level 2 Inputs.”

The following table summarizes financial assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value:
