ASPEN TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.  Organization and Basis of Presentation

Aspen Technology, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (“AspenTech” or “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 and 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.

On October 10, 2021, Emerson Electric Co. (“Emerson” or “Parent Company”) entered into a definitive agreement (the “Transaction Agreement”) with AspenTech Corporation. (“Heritage AspenTech”) to contribute the Emerson Industrial Software Business (the “Industrial Software Business”), along with $6.014 billion in cash, to create AspenTech (the “Transaction”). The Industrial Software Business included Open Systems International, Inc. (“OSI Inc.”) and Geological Simulation Software business (“GSS”), which we have renamed as Subsurface Science & Engineering (“SSE”). The Transaction closed on May 16, 2022 (“Closing Date”). Emerson owns 55% of AspenTech on a fully diluted basis as of December 31, 2022.

On December 23, 2022, the Company entered into a credit agreement with Emerson (the “Emerson Credit Agreement”), which will provide for an aggregate term loan commitment of $630.0 million. Refer to Note 13, “Related-Party Transactions”, to our consolidated and combined financial statements for further discussion of the Emerson Credit Agreement.

On July 27, 2022, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Mining Software Holdings Pty Ltd (“Micromine”) for AU$900.0 million in cash (approximately $623.0 million based on exchange rates when the acquisition was initially announced). Micromine is a global leader in design and operational management solutions for the metals and mining industry. The Company currently intends to finance the transaction primarily through debt financing under the Emerson Credit Agreement. The acquisition is expected to close as soon as the remaining regulatory approval is obtained.

The Company operates globally in 79 countries as of December 31, 2022.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated and combined financial statements include the accounts of Aspen Technology, Inc. and our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Transaction was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with U.S. GAAP, with the Industrial Software Business treated as the “acquirer” and Heritage AspenTech treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for the three- and six-month interim period ended December 31, 2021, the consolidated and combined financial statements comprise the results of the Industrial Software Business only and do not include the results of Heritage AspenTech.

We have prepared the accompanying consolidated and combined financial statements as of December 31, 2022, and for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 and 2022, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). These consolidated and combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated and combined financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Transition Reports on Form 10-KT for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.

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 consolidated and combined financial statements and accompanying notes. The actual results that we experience may differ materially from our estimates.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the amounts in prior periods in order to conform to the current period’s presentation. We have evaluated subsequent events through the date that the financial statements were issued.

Russia and Ukraine

While the Company has no operations in Ukraine, the ongoing conflict there could negatively impact its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The United States and other governments have imposed sanctions and taken other regulatory actions that adversely affect doing business in Russia and with Russian companies. The Company maintains
9

operations in Russia, licenses software and provides related services to customers in Russia and areas of Ukraine that are not under sanction. The Company had net sales of approximately $16.8 million and $26.8 million for the three- and six-month period ended December 31, 2022, respectively, and total assets of approximately $19.3 million as of December 31, 2022, related to operations in Russia. While the conflict has not had a material impact on the Company’s financial results thus far, the Company continues to evaluate the impact of the various sanctions, export control measures and business restrictions imposed by the United States and other governments on its ability to do business in Russia and areas of Ukraine that are not under sanction, maintain contracts with vendors and pay employees in Russia, as well as receive payment from customers in Russia and areas of Ukraine that are not under sanction. The outcome of these assessments will depend on how the conflict evolves and on further actions that may be taken by the United States, Russia, and other governments around the world. As a software company, no material impact to supply chain operations is expected due to the conflict in Ukraine.

If the sanctions and other retaliatory measures and restrictions imposed by the global community change, the Company may be required to cease or suspend operations in the region or, should the conflict or the effects of these sanctions, measures and restrictions worsen, the Company may voluntarily elect to do so. Any disruption to, or suspension of, the Company’s business and operations in Russia would result in the loss of revenues from the business in Russia. In addition, as a result of the risk of collectability of receivables from customers in Russia, the Company may be required to adjust accounting practices relating to revenue recognition in this region, with the result that the Company may not be able to recognize revenue until risk of revenue reversal is not probable.

2.  Significant Accounting Policies
 
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the consolidated and combined financial statements included in our Transition Reports on Form 10-KT for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. There were no material changes to our significant accounting policies during the three and six months ended December 31, 2022, other than those noted below.

(a) Derivatives and Hedging

We use derivative instruments to manage exposures to foreign currency exchange rate risks. Our primary objective of holding derivatives is to reduce the volatility of cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Our derivatives expose us to credit risk to the extent that the counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the agreement. We do seek to mitigate such risks by limiting our counterparties to major financial institutions. In addition, the potential risk of loss with any one counterparty resulting from this type of credit risk is monitored. Management does not expect material losses as a result of defaults by counterparties.

The Company accounts for derivative transactions in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” and recognizes derivatives instruments as either assets or liabilities in the consolidated and combined balance sheet and measures those instruments at fair value. The Company’s foreign currency forward contracts as described in Note 11 do not qualify for hedge accounting. Accordingly, the changes in fair value of the derivative transactions are presented in earnings.

(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 consolidated and combined financial statements.

3.   Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

The contract assets are subject to credit risk and are reviewed in accordance with ASC 326. 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 Company’s contract assets and contract liabilities were as follows as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022:
December 31,
2022
June 30,
2022
(Dollars in Thousands)
Contract assets$935,534 $857,065 
Contract liabilities(176,594)(164,408)
$758,940 $692,657 

Contract assets and contract liabilities are presented net at the contract level for each reporting period.

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 contractual billing schedules. The change in the net contract balance during the six months ended December 31, 2022 was primarily due to greater revenue recognition as compared to billings. Revenue recognized from the contract liability balance, as of June 30, 2022, was $37.1 million and $72.6 million during the three and six months ended December 31, 2022, respectively.

The Company did not have any customer that accounted for 10 percent or more of the Company’s revenues for the three and six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

4. Acquisitions 

Inmation Software GmbH

On August 29, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of inmation Software GmbH (“Inmation”) for total cash consideration of $87.4 million. The purchase price consisted of $78.9 million of cash paid at closing and an additional $8.5 million to be held back until August 2023 as security for certain representations, warranties, and obligations of the sellers. The holdback is recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our consolidated and combined balance sheets. The total cash acquired from Inmation was approximately $4.0 million resulting in a net cash payment of $74.9 million. The Company recognized goodwill of $63.6 million (none of which is expected to be tax deductible) and identifiable intangible assets of $31.5 million, primarily developed technology and customer relationships, with a useful life of approximately five years for developed technology and seven years for customer relationships. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed represent the preliminary fair value estimates, and are subject to subsequent adjustments as the Company obtains additional information during the measurement period and finalizes its fair value estimates.

Inmation’s revenue and net loss included in the Company’s consolidated and combined income statement from the acquisition date to the reporting period ending on December 31, 2022 were $1.2 million and $(1.1) million, respectively. Results included amortization of developed technology and customer relationships of $1.9 million.

Prior to the closing date, Inmation was considered a related party to AspenTech as Emerson, through one of its subsidiaries, held an equity-method investment in Inmation. At the time of close, $17.6 million was paid to Emerson in exchange for all of its shares in Inmation, with another $2.0 million to be paid 12 months after the close.

Heritage AspenTech

On October 10, 2021, Emerson entered into the Transaction with Heritage AspenTech to contribute the Industrial Software Business comprised of OSI and the SSE business, along with $6.014 billion in cash, to create the Company. On the Closing Date, Emerson owned 55% of the outstanding common shares of AspenTech on a fully diluted basis, while the stockholders of Heritage AspenTech owned the remaining 45%. The acquisition-date fair value of the purchase consideration totaled $11.19 billion.

During the first two quarters of fiscal 2023, the Company recorded purchase price allocation adjustments that increased goodwill by $1.7 million. The following table sets forth the purchase price allocation of the Heritage AspenTech acquisition:

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.”

Our derivative instruments are primarily classified as Level 2, as they are not actively traded and are valued using pricing models that use observable market inputs.

The following table summarizes financial assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the accompanying consolidated and combined balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value:

Financial instruments not measured or recorded at fair value in the accompanying consolidated and combined financial statements consist of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The estimated fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying value. The estimated fair value of the borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (described below in Note 8, “Credit Agreement”) approximates its carrying value due to the floating interest rate.

8.  Debt

Bridge Facility
 
On July 27, 2022, the Company entered into a $475.0 million senior unsecured bridge facility (the “Bridge Facility”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”), as Administrative Agent, to finance the Micromine acquisition. The Bridge Facility was entered into under the existing Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of December 23, 2019, with JPMorgan (“Credit Agreement”). The Company may elect that each incremental borrowing under the Bridge Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (a) the Alternate Base Rate (“ABR”), plus the applicable margin or (b) the Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), plus the applicable margin.

As consideration for JPMorgan’s agreement to act as administrative agent for the Bridge Facility, the Company is required to pay a fee of $50,000 per annum, payable on the closing date of the loan and every anniversary thereof during the term of the loan.

In addition, the Company incurred issuance costs associated with the Bridge Facility. For the six months ended December 31, 2022, the Company paid a total of $2.375 million in fees to JPMorgan to secure the Bridge Facility.

On December 23, 2022, the Company terminated the Bridge Facility, and at the same time entered into a credit agreement with Emerson (the “Emerson Credit Agreement”), which will provide for an aggregate term loan commitment of $630.0 million. Refer to Note 13, “Related-Party Transactions”, to our consolidated and combined financial statements for further discussion of the Emerson Credit Agreement.

Credit Agreement

The Company also has a Credit Agreement with JP Morgan that provides for a $200.0 million secured revolving credit facility and a $320.0 million secured term loan facility.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s current and non-current borrowings, under the term loan facility, were $264.0 million and $0.0 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s current and non-current borrowings, under the term loan facility, were $28.0 million and $245.6 million, respectively. The interest rate on the term loan facility as of December 31, 2022 was 5.26%. There were no amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility at either December 31, 2022 or June 30, 2022. Any outstanding balances of the indebtedness under the revolving credit facility mature on December 23, 2024. Refer to Note 15, “Subsequent Events”, to our consolidated and combined financial statements for further discussion of the subsequent payoff of our term loan facility of the Credit Agreement after the reporting date of December 31, 2022.

The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, which are also applicable to the Bridge Facility, including restrictions on incurrence of additional debt, liens, fundamental changes, asset sales, restricted payments (including dividends) and transactions with affiliates. There are also financial covenants measured at the end of each fiscal quarter including a maximum leverage ratio of 3.50 to 1.00 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 2.50 to 1.00. As of December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all the loan covenants.

The RSUs granted had a weighted average fair value of $207.87 per RSU.
 
10.  Net Income Per Share
 
Basic income per share is determined by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is determined by dividing net income by diluted weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted weighted average shares reflect the dilutive effect, if any, of potential common shares. To the extent their effect is dilutive, employee equity awards and other commitments to be settled in common stock are included in the calculation of diluted net income per share based on the treasury stock method.
 
Prior to the Transaction, the Industrial Software Business did not have any shares of common stock outstanding. Accordingly, net loss per share for the three and six months ended December 31, 2022 has been calculated using weighted average shares outstanding (basic and diluted) based on the number of shares of common stock issued to Emerson on the Closing Date of the Transaction.

15

The calculations of basic and diluted net income per share and basic and dilutive weighted average shares outstanding for the three and six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:

For the three and six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, certain employee equity awards were anti-dilutive based on the treasury stock method. The following employee equity awards were excluded from the calculation of dilutive weighted average shares outstanding because their effect would be anti-dilutive as of December 31, 2022 and 2021:

11.   Derivatives

In connection with the agreement to purchase Micromine, the Company also entered into foreign currency forward contracts on August 2, 2022 for a six-month period ending on February 6, 2023 to mitigate the impact of foreign currency exchange associated with the forecasted payment of purchase price. The acquisition is expected to close as soon as the remaining regulatory approval is obtained.

The notional amounts of our outstanding derivatives are in total AU $900 million. As of December 31, 2022, the fair values of our derivative instruments were $15.3 million and were recorded to the liability from foreign currency forward contract caption on the consolidated and combined balance sheets. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized gains of $34.9 million and losses of $15.3 million, respectively, and recorded as part of the other income (expense), net on the consolidated and combined statements of operations.

12.   Benefit for Income Taxes
 
The Company computes its tax provision (benefit) for interim periods by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate (“AETR”) to year-to-date income from operations and adjusting for discrete items arising in that quarter. However, if the Company is unable to make a reliable estimate of its AETR, then the actual effective tax rate for the year-to-date period may be the best estimate. For the three months and six months ended December 31, 2021, the Company computed its tax provision (benefit) using the AETR approach. However, for the six months ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded the actual effective tax rate as it was determined that the AETR approach was not the most appropriate estimate to be applied to the year to date pretax (loss) income given small changes in the forecast of pre-tax (loss) income would result in significant changes in the AETR.

Income tax expense was $49.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and income tax benefit was $0.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021, resulting in effective tax rates of (298.0)% and 55.1%, respectively. Our income tax was higher in the three months ended December 31, 2022 due to the current quarters' change in the Company’s approach to computing its tax provision (benefit) for the interim periods to the actual effective tax rate method.
16

The change resulted in a tax provision during the three months ended December 31, 2022 that reflects recording a year-to-date benefit compared to that of the three months ended September 30, 2022, which was recorded under the AETR approach.

Benefit for income taxes was $44.0 million and $5.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 36.2% and 30.5%, respectively. Income tax benefit increased due to the higher Foreign-Derived Intangible Income (“FDII”) deduction recorded in the current period as a result of non-deductible amortization of intangibles, capitalized R&D costs, and a change in the accounting methodology related to historical revenue recognition for tax purposes on multi-year software license agreements. The change resulted in the recognition of taxable income over a four-tax year period with fiscal year 2024 as the last year of the adjustment.

13. Related-Party Transactions

The Company utilizes Emersons centralized treasury function which manages the working capital and financing needs of its business operations. This function oversees a cash pooling arrangement which sweeps certain Company cash accounts into pooled Emerson cash accounts on a daily basis. Pooled cash and nontrade balances attributable to Emerson have been presented as receivables from related parties or due to related parties in the consolidated and combined financial statements of the Company.

Before the Closing Date, the Industrial Software Business was charged for costs directly attributable to the SSE business and OSI and was allocated a portion of Emerson’s costs, including general corporate costs, information technology costs, insurance and other benefit costs, and shared service and other costs. All of these costs are reflected in the Company’s consolidated and combined financial statements. Management believes the methodologies and assumptions used to allocate these costs are reasonable.

At the Closing Date, Emerson and the Company entered into the transition service agreement (“TSA”) for the provision of certain transitionary services from Emerson to AspenTech. Pursuant to the TSA, Emerson will provide AspenTech and its subsidiaries with certain services, including information technology, human resources and other specified services, as well as access to certain of Emerson’s existing facilities. TSA related activities have been recorded as cost of goods sold or operating expenses from related parties and resulting balances have been presented as receivable from or due to related parties in the consolidated and combined financial statements presented.

Receivables from related parties and due to related parties reported in the consolidated and combined balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022 include the following:

17

Before the Closing Date, OSI and the SSE business engaged in various transactions to sell software and purchase goods in the ordinary course of business with affiliates of Emerson. At the Closing Date, the Company and Emerson entered into a commercial agreement to allow Emerson to distribute software and services from AspenTech (the “Commercial Agreement”). Pursuant to the Commercial Agreement as amended from time to time in accordance with the Stockholders Agreement, AspenTech will grant Emerson the right to distribute, on a non-exclusive basis, certain (i) existing Heritage AspenTech products, (ii) existing Emerson products being transferred to AspenTech pursuant to the Transaction Agreement and (iii) future AspenTech products as mutually agreed upon, in each case, to end-users through Emerson acting as an agent, reseller or original equipment manufacturer. Commercial Agreement related activities have been recorded as revenues and expenses from related parties and resulting trade balances have been presented as trade receivables from related parties in the consolidated and combined financial statements presented. Revenue from Emerson are as follows:

Emerson Share Maintenance Rights

Immediately following the Closing Date, Emerson beneficially owned 55% of the fully diluted shares of AspenTech common stock. Under the Shareholders Agreement, Emerson has the right to acquire additional equity securities of AspenTech pursuant to pre-agreed procedures and rights in order to maintain its 55% ownership. No additional shares of common stock, or any other equity securities of AspenTech, were issued to Emerson subsequent to the Closing Date through December 31, 2022.

Business combination with related party

The Inmation acquisition completed on August 29, 2022 was considered a related party transaction. Refer to Note 4, “Acquisitions”, to our consolidated and combined financial statements for further discussion.

Credit agreement with related party

On December 23, 2022, the Company entered into the Emerson Credit Agreement with Emerson, which provides for an aggregate term loan commitment of $630.0 million. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company will use the proceeds from borrowings under the Agreement to (i) pay in part the cash consideration for funding acquisitions, (ii) consummate certain other loan repayments, (iii) pay the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Emerson Credit Agreement and (iv) for other working capital and general corporate purposes.

Principal outstanding under the Emerson Credit Agreement bears interest at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR Rate (as such term is defined in Emerson Credit Agreement) plus an amount ranging from 1.25% to 1.75%.

The term loan to be made under the Agreement is unsecured and matures on the fifth anniversary of the date the term loan is funded. The Company is permitted to prepay the term loan in whole or in part upon provision of notice in accordance with the Emerson Credit Agreement. Upon an event of default (as such term is defined in the Emerson Credit Agreement), the loan may become due and payable in full upon provision of notice in accordance with the Agreement.

In addition, the Emerson Credit Agreement includes a mandatory prepayment provision if at any time Emerson fails to beneficially own more than 40% of our common stock for a period of more than 30 consecutive days and Emerson provides us written notice requiring us to prepay the term loan. In such an event, we would have no less than either 30 days or 180 days from the date of such notice, depending upon the circumstances giving rise to the decrease in Emerson’s ownership interest, to prepay the term loan.

The Emerson Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants customary for facilities of this type, including restrictions on incurrence of additional debt, liens, fundamental changes, asset sales, restricted payments and transactions with affiliates. The Agreement also contains financial covenants regarding maintenance as of the end of each fiscal quarter of a maximum leverage ratio of 3.50 to 1.00 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 2.50 to 1.00. As of December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all the loan covenants.

18

There was no amount outstanding under the Emerson Credit Agreement at December 31, 2022.

14.  Segment Information
 
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities for which discrete financial information is available and regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and to assess performance.

Prior to the Transaction, the Industrial Software Business had two operating and reportable segments: OSI Inc. and the GSS business (subsequently renamed Subsurface Science & Engineering Solutions, or “SSE”, after the Closing Date). The Transaction resulted in the creation of a third operating and reportable segment: Heritage AspenTech. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company completed certain integration activities and changes to its organizational structure that triggered a change in the composition of its operating and reportable segments. As a result, beginning with the interim period ended September 30, 2022, the Company is now comprised of a single operating and reportable segment. Accordingly, the Company has restated its operating and reportable segment information for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its President and Chief Executive Officer.
