CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report includes forward‑looking statements. All statements contained in this report other than statements of historical facts, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, our business strategy, and plans and our objectives for future operations, are forward‑looking statements. The words “believe,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “seeks,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” and similar expressions, as well as statements regarding our focus for the future, are intended to identify forward‑looking statements. We have based these forward‑looking statements largely on our current expectations, projections, and assumptions about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short‑term and long‑term business operations and objectives, and financial needs. These forward‑looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including those described in the section titled “Risk Factors.” Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward‑looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the future events and trends discussed in this report may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward‑looking statements. The forward‑looking statements, as well as our report as a whole, are subject to risks and uncertainties.
These statements are only current predictions and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements to be materially different from those anticipated by the forward‑looking statements. We discuss many of these risks in this report in greater detail in the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report. You should not rely upon forward‑looking statements as predictions of future events.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward‑looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, achievements, events, or circumstances reflected in the forward‑looking statements will occur. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any of these forward‑looking statements after the date of this report to conform these statements to actual results or revised expectations.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(in thousands, except share and per share data)
(unaudited)

Note 1: Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bentley Systems, Incorporated and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Bentley Systems, Incorporated” or the “Company”), and have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10 K. In management’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring and non-recurring adjustments) that were considered necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of the dates and for the periods indicated. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The December 31, 2022 consolidated balance sheet included herein is derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.
Certain reclassifications of prior period amounts have been made to conform to the current period presentation. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, payments related to the Company’s interest rate swap were recognized in Other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations and the corresponding prior period amounts, which were previously recognized in Interest expense, net , were reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the amounts reclassified were not material, and Income before income taxes and Net income in the consolidated statements of operations did not change as a result of these reclassifications.
Note 2: Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020‑04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020‑04”), which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. ASU 2020‑04 applies only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform between March 12, 2020 and December 31, 2022. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022‑06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848 , which provides optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting by extending the sunset date of Topic 848 to December 31, 2024. The expedients and exceptions provided by these ASUs do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2024, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2024, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The Company adopted these ASUs during the second quarter of 2023 (see Note 10) and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On January 31, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Power Line Systems (“PLS”), a leader in software for the design of overhead electric power transmission lines and their structures, for $ 695,968 in cash, net of cash acquired. The operating results of the acquired businesses were not material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
The fair value of the contingent consideration from acquisitions is included in the consolidated balance sheets as follows:
June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022

The Company is in the process of finalizing the purchase accounting for one acquisition completed during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and one acquisition completed during the year ended December 31, 2022. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed were provisionally recorded at their estimated fair values on the respective acquisition date. The initial accounting for these business combinations is not complete because the evaluation necessary to assess the fair values of certain net assets acquired is still in process. The provisional amounts are subject to revision until the evaluations are completed to the extent that additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. The allocation of the purchase price may be modified from the date of the acquisition as more information is obtained about the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, however, such measurement period cannot exceed one year.

Net assets acquired $ 10,880 $ 765,098
The fair values of the working capital, other assets (liabilities), and property and equipment approximated their respective carrying values as of the acquisition date.
Deferred revenues were determined in accordance with the Company’s revenue recognition policies.
The fair values of the intangible assets were primarily determined using the income approach. When applying the income approach, indications of fair values were developed by discounting future net cash flows to their present values at market‑based rates of return. The cash flows were based on estimates used to price the acquisitions and the discount rates applied were benchmarked with reference to the implied rate of return from the Company’s pricing model and the weighted average cost of capital.
15



Goodwill recorded in connection with the acquisitions was attributable to synergies expected to arise from cost saving opportunities, as well as future expected cash flows. The Company expects $ 7,289 of the goodwill recorded relating to the 2023 acquisition will be deductible for income tax purposes.

Credit Facility
The Company is party to a Credit Agreement dated December 19, 2017 (as amended from time to time), which provides for an $ 850,000 senior secured revolving loan facility that matures on November 15, 2025 (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility also provides up to $ 50,000 of letters of credit and other borrowings subject to availability, including an $ 85,000 U.S. dollar swingline sub‑facility and a $ 200,000 incremental “accordion” sub‑facility. Debt issuance costs are amortized to interest expense through the maturity date.
Under the Credit Facility, the Company has a $ 200,000 senior secured term loan with a maturity of November 15, 2025 (the “Term Loan”). The Term Loan requires principal repayment at the end of each calendar quarter. Beginning with March 31, 2022 and ending with December 31, 2023, the Company is required to repay $ 1,250 per quarter. Beginning with March 31, 2024 and ending with the last such date prior to the maturity date, the Company is required to repay $ 2,500 per quarter.
19



The Company had $ 150 of letters of credit and surety bonds outstanding as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 under the Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $ 648,605 and $ 504,253 , respectively, available under the Credit Facility.
Effective June 23, 2023, the Company amended the Credit Facility to replace the referenced interest rate based on LIBOR with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”).
Revolving loan borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at variable rates that reset every one, three, or six months depending on the period selected by the Company. Under the Term SOFR elections, revolving loan borrowings bear an interest rate of the applicable term SOFR rate plus 10 basis points (“bps”), plus a spread ranging from 125 bps to 225 bps as determined by the Company’s net leverage ratio. Under the non‑Term SOFR elections, revolving loan borrowings bear a base interest rate of the highest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the overnight bank funding effective rate plus 50 bps, or (iii) the applicable term SOFR rate plus 10 bps, plus a spread ranging from 25 bps to 125 bps as determined by the Company’s net leverage ratio.
Swingline borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest that resets daily. Interest on U.S. dollar swingline borrowings bear an interest rate of the daily simple SOFR rate plus 3.5 bps, plus a spread ranging from 125 bps to 225 bps as determined by the Company’s net leverage ratio. The Company cannot make optional currency swingline borrowings without the consent of the applicable swingline lender.
Term loan borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at variable rates that reset every one, three, or six months depending on the period selected by the Company. Under the Term SOFR elections, term loan borrowings bear an interest rate of the applicable term SOFR rate plus 10 bps, plus a spread ranging from 100 bps to 200 bps as determined by the Company’s net leverage ratio. Under the non‑Term SOFR elections, term loan borrowings bear a base interest rate of the highest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the overnight bank funding effective rate plus 50 bps, or (iii) the applicable term SOFR rate plus 10 bps, plus a spread ranging from 0 bps to 100 bps as determined by the Company’s net leverage ratio.
In addition, a commitment fee for the unused Credit Facility ranges from 20 bps to 30 bps as determined by the Company’s net leverage ratio.
Borrowings under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by all of the Company’s material first tier domestic subsidiaries and are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and the guarantors’ U.S. assets and 65 % of the stock of their directly owned foreign subsidiaries.
The agreement governing the Credit Facility contains customary positive and negative covenants, including restrictions on our ability to pay dividends and make other restricted payments, as well as events of default, including, without limitation, payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, covenants defaults, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness in excess of $ 50,000 , certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency, judgment defaults in excess of $ 10,000 , failure of any security document supporting the Credit Facility to be in full force and effect, and a change of control. The Credit Facility also contains customary financial covenants, including maximum net leverage ratio. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all covenants in its Credit Facility.
Voluntary prepayments of amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility, in whole or in part, are permitted at any time, so long as the Company gives notice as required by the Credit Facility. However, if prepayment is made with respect to a SOFR‑based loan and the prepayment is made on a date other than an interest payment date, the Company is subject to customary breakage costs.
Convertible Senior Notes
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all covenants in the 2026 Notes and 2027 Notes, and none of the conditions of the 2026 Notes or 2027 Notes to early convert had been met.

Derivative Arrangements
The Company records derivative instruments as an asset or liability measured at fair value and depending on the nature of the hedge, the corresponding changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations or comprehensive income. If the derivative is determined to be a hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are offset against the change in the fair value of the hedged assets or liabilities through the consolidated statements of operations or recognized in Other comprehensive income (loss), net of taxes until the hedged item is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is recognized in earnings. Also, changes in the entire fair value of a derivative that is not designated as a hedge are recognized in earnings.
Effective on April 2, 2020, the Company entered into an interest rate swap with a notional amount of $ 200,000 and a ten‑year term to reduce the interest rate risk associated with the Credit Facility. Effective on June 26, 2023, the Company amended the interest rate swap agreement to replace the LIBOR rate to SOFR under the ISDA Fallback Protocols included within the agreement. Subsequent to the amendment, the Company will continue to pay a fixed interest rate of 72.9 bps, and will receive a floating interest rate equal to daily SOFR plus an ARRC spread adjustment of 11.448 bps. The interest rate swap is not designated as a hedging instrument for accounting purposes. The Company accounts for the interest rate swap as either an asset or a liability on the consolidated balance sheets and carries the derivative at fair value (see Note 17). Gain (loss) from the change in fair value and payments related to the interest rate swap are recognized in Other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations (see Note 20). The bank counterparty to the derivative potentially exposes the Company to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance. To mitigate that risk, the Company only contracts with counterparties who meet the Company’s minimum requirements under its counterparty risk assessment process. The Company monitors counterparty risk on at least a quarterly basis and adjusts its exposure as necessary. The Company does not enter into derivative instrument transactions for trading or speculative purposes.

Provided that the applicable margin targets are met, the total number of performance‑based RSUs that will vest is determined by the achievement of growth targets, which include growth in ARR, as well as actual bookings for perpetual licenses and non‑recurring services. Final actual vesting will be determined on January 31, 2025. The 2022 Adjusted EBITDA margin target for the performance‑based RSUs was met.
In 2016, the Company granted RSUs subject to performance‑based vesting as determined by the achievement of certain business growth targets. Certain colleagues elected to defer delivery of such shares upon vesting. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, 1,562 and 10,888 shares, respectively, were delivered to colleagues, and 20 and 16 additional shares, respectively, were earned as a result of dividends. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 7,821 and 9,363 shares, respectively, of these vested and deferred RSUs remained outstanding.
The weighted average grant date fair values of RSUs granted were $ 40.80 and $ 39.02 , for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, restricted stock and RSUs were issued net of 104,773 and 52,026 shares, respectively, which were sold back to the Company to settle applicable income tax withholdings of $ 4,336 and $ 2,148 , respectively.
27



As of June 30, 2023, there was $ 95,227 of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested time‑based restricted stock and RSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.8 years. As of June 30, 2023, there was $ 8,437 of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested performance‑based RSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.0 years.
Stock Grants
For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company granted 12,639 and 13,632 fully vested shares of Class B Common Stock, respectively, with a fair value of $ 600 and $ 450 , respectively.
Note 16: Income Taxes
The following is a summary of Income before income taxes , (Benefit) provision for income taxes , and effective tax rate for the periods presented:
Three Months Ended Six Months Ended
June 30, June 30,
2023 2022 2023 2022
Income before income taxes
$ 44,786 $ 51,592 $ 99,768 $ 111,783

Effective tax rate ( 8.7 ) % ( 9.1 ) % 5.6 % ( 1.3 ) %
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the effective tax rate was higher compared to the prior year period primarily due to the increase in the forecasted effective tax rate impact of the U.S. Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) inclusion due to the mandatory capitalization of research and development expenses for U.S. tax purposes, partially offset by an increase in discrete tax benefits recognized in the current year period. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded discrete tax benefits of $ 20,394 and $ 19,024 , respectively, primarily associated with windfall tax benefits from stock‑based compensation, net of the impact from officer compensation limitation provisions.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the effective tax rate was higher compared to the prior year period primarily due to the decrease in discrete tax benefits recognized in the current year period and the increase in the forecasted effective tax rate impact of the GILTI inclusion due to the mandatory capitalization of research and development expenses for U.S. tax purposes. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded discrete tax benefits of $ 27,467 and $ 31,752 , respectively, primarily associated with windfall tax benefits from stock‑based compensation, net of the impact from officer compensation limitation provisions.
Note 17: Fair Value of Financial Instruments
A financial asset or liability classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels:
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on management’s own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value.
28



The Company’s financial instruments include cash equivalents, account receivables, certain other assets, accounts payable, accruals, certain other current and long‑term liabilities, and long‑term debt.
Current assets and current liabilities — In general, the carrying amounts reported on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short‑term nature of those instruments.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 financial instruments as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:
Acquisition contingent consideration — The fair value of these liabilities is generally determined using a cost or income approach and is measured based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The valuation of contingent consideration uses assumptions the Company believes would be made by a market participant.
Interest rate swap — The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap asset or liability is determined using an income approach and is measured based on the implied forward rates for the remaining term of the interest rate swap. The Company considers these valuation inputs to be Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.
Long-term debt — The fair value of the Company’s borrowings under its Credit Facility approximated its carrying value based upon discounted cash flows at current market rates for instruments with similar remaining terms. The Company considers these valuation inputs to be Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. As of June 30, 2023, the estimated fair value of the 2026 Notes and 2027 Notes was $ 700,438 and $ 516,873 , respectively. As of December 31, 2022, the estimated fair value of the 2026 Notes and 2027 Notes was $ 622,431 and $ 470,856 , respectively. T he estimated fair value of the 2026 Notes and 2027 Notes is based on quoted market prices of the Company’s instrument in markets that are not active and are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret the market data and develop estimates of fair values. Accordingly, the estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts at which these instruments could be purchased, sold, or settled.
Deferred compensation plan liabilities — The fair value of deferred compensation plan liabilities, including the liability classified phantom investments in the DCP, are marked to market at the end of each reporting period.
Financial assets and financial liabilities carried at fair value measured on a recurring basis consist of the following:

The Company did not have any transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy.
Note 18: Commitments and Contingencies
Purchase Commitment — In the normal course of business, the Company enters into various purchase commitments for goods and services. During June 2023, the Company entered into a $ 122,000 non‑cancelable future cash purchase commitment for services related to cloud provisioning of the Company’s software solutions through May 2026. As of June 30, 2023, the non‑cancelable future cash purchase commitment was $ 118,915 . The Company expects to fully consume its contractual commitment in the ordinary course of operations.
Litigation — From time to time, the Company is involved in certain legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In management’s opinion, based upon the advice of counsel, the outcome of such actions is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

(1) Foreign exchange gain (loss) is primarily attributable to foreign currency translation derived mainly from U.S. dollar denominated cash and cash equivalents, account receivables, customer deposits, and intercompany balances held by foreign subsidiaries. Intercompany finance transactions primarily denominated in U.S. dollars resulted in unrealized foreign exchange gains (losses) of $ 1,397 and $( 5,799 ) for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $ 2,258 and $( 6,563 ) for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
(2) Other (expense) income, net includes investment impairment charges of $( 7,318 ) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 (see Note 7).
Note 21: Net Income Per Share
The Company issues certain performance-based RSUs determined to be participating securities because holders of such shares have non-forfeitable dividend rights in the event of the Company’s declaration of a dividend for common shares. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were 368,283 and 356,946 participating securities outstanding, respectively.
Undistributed net income allocated to participating securities are subtracted from net income in determining basic net income attributable to common stockholders. Basic net income per share is computed by dividing basic net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares, inclusive of undistributed shares held in the DCP as phantom shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock.
31


For the Company’s diluted net income per share numerator, interest expense, net of tax, attributable to the assumed conversion of the convertible senior notes is added back to basic net income attributable to common stockholders. For the Company’s diluted net income per share denominator, the basic weighted average number of shares is adjusted for the effect of dilutive securities, including awards under the Company’s equity compensation plans and ESPP, and for the dilutive effect of the assumed conversion of the convertible senior notes. Diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing diluted net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of fully diluted common shares.
Except with respect to voting and conversion, the rights of the holders of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and the Company’s Class B Common Stock are identical. Each class of shares has the same rights to dividends and allocation of income (loss) and, therefore, net income per share would not differ under the two‑class method.
The details of basic and diluted net income per share are as follows :

The increase in total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily driven by increases in subscriptions revenues, and to a lesser extent, services and perpetual licenses revenues. The increase in total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily driven by increases in subscriptions revenues, and to a lesser extent, services revenues. Partially offsetting these increases were decreases in perpetual licenses revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Subscriptions . For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the increase in subscriptions revenues was driven by improvements in our business performance of approximately $27,052 ($25,364 on a constant currency basis). Our business performance excludes the impact of our platform acquisitions and includes the impact from programmatic acquisitions, which generally are immaterial, individually and in the aggregate.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the increase in subscriptions revenues was primarily driven by improvements in our business performance of approximately $59,363 ($64,351 on a constant currency basis) and the impact from our platform acquisition of approximately $4,301 ($4,330 on a constant currency basis). The platform acquisition impact relates to our acquisition of PLS and is inclusive of PLS’ organic performance.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the improvements in business performance were primarily driven by expansion from accounts with revenues in the prior period (“existing accounts”), and growth of 3% attributable to new accounts, most notably smaller- and medium-sized accounts. Improvements in business performance for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were led by our civil and structural engineering applications, geoprofessional applications, and our Enterprise Systems for project delivery.
36


Perpetual licenses . For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the increase in perpetual licenses revenues was driven by improvements in business performance of approximately $170 ($163 on a constant currency basis). For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the decrease in perpetual licenses revenues was driven by a decline in business performance of approximately $488 ($158 on a constant currency basis).
Services. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the increase in services revenues was driven by improvements in our business performance of approximately $1,242 ($1,486 on a constant currency basis) and $4,182 ($5,659 on a constant currency basis), respectively.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the improvements in business performance were primarily driven by contributions from Cohesive digital integrator services of approximately $1,597 ($1,829 on a constant currency basis) and $5,179 ($6,445 on a constant currency basis), respectively.

Americas . For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the increase in revenues from the Americas was driven by improvements in our business performance of approximately $14,477 ($14,224 on a constant currency basis).
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the increase in revenues from the Americas was primarily driven by improvements in our business performance of approximately $24,872 ($25,174 on a constant currency basis) and the impact from our platform acquisition of approximately $3,690 ($3,697 on a constant currency basis).
The improvements in business performance for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were primarily due to expansion of our subscriptions revenues from existing accounts in the U.S.
EMEA . For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the increase in revenues from EMEA was primarily driven by improvements in our business performance of approximately $8,644 ($7,270 on a constant currency basis) and $23,547 ($27,164 on a constant currency basis), respectively.
37


The improvements in business performance for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were primarily due to expansion of our subscriptions revenues from existing accounts in Central Europe and the Middle East. Partially offsetting these increases were reductions in Russia due to exiting our operations beginning in the second quarter of 2022.
The improvements in business performance for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were primarily due to expansion of our subscriptions revenues from existing accounts in the U.K., the Middle East, and Africa, partially offset by reductions in Russia due to exiting our operations beginning in the second quarter of 2022.
APAC. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the increase in revenues from APAC was primarily driven by improvements in our business performance of approximately $5,343 ($5,519 on a constant currency basis) and $14,638 ($17,514 on a constant currency basis), respectively.
The improvements in business performance for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were primarily due to expansion of our subscriptions revenues from existing accounts in India and Australia, partially offset by declines in China.
The improvements in business performance for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were primarily due to expansion of our subscriptions revenues from existing accounts in India, Australia, and Southeast Asia.
Revenues in China for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The future results in China remain uncertain as a result of continued geopolitical challenges, the obstacles there to cloud‑deployed software, and the financial timing impact of the preference there for license sales, rather than subscriptions, of locally-developed solutions based on our platforms.

Research and development. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, on a constant currency basis, research and development expenses increased primarily due to an increase in headcount-related costs of approximately $6,666 and $15,294, respectively, mainly due to increases in headcount and annual compensation costs.
Selling and marketing. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, on a constant currency basis, selling and marketing expenses increased primarily due to an increase in headcount-related costs of approximately $5,481, mainly due to increases in headcount and annual compensation costs, and to a lesser extent, an increase in variable compensation costs. The three months ended June 30, 2022 included $1,123 of asset impairments and $826 of termination benefits as a result of our decision to wind down business and exit the Russian market beginning in the second quarter of 2022.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, on a constant currency basis, selling and marketing expenses increased primarily due to an increase in headcount-related costs of approximately $12,622, mainly due to increases in headcount, and to a lesser extent, an increase in stock‑based compensation expense, variable compensation costs, and travel-related costs. The six months ended June 30, 2022 included $1,123 of asset impairments and $826 of termination benefits as a result of our decision to wind down business and exit the Russian market beginning in the second quarter of 2022.
General and administrative . For the three months ended June 30, 2023, on a constant currency basis, general and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to lower non‑income related taxes of approximately $3,429. The three months ended June 30, 2022 included $1,085 of asset impairments as a result of our decision to wind down business and exit the Russian market beginning in the second quarter of 2022. Partially offsetting these decreases were increases in headcount and annual compensation costs of approximately $4,218.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, on a constant currency basis, general and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to lower acquisition expenses of approximately $5,851 (acquisition expenses were $5,298 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $11,251 for the six months ended June 30, 2022), lower non‑income related taxes of approximately $5,066, and a decrease in facility-related costs of approximately $1,631. Costs resulting from our decision to wind down business and exit the Russian market beginning in the second quarter of 2022 were approximately $3,050 lower in the current year period. Partially offsetting these decreases were increases in headcount-related costs of approximately $11,677, mainly due to increases in headcount and annual compensation costs, and to a lesser extent, an increase in stock‑based compensation expense.
Deferred compensation plan . For the three months ended June 30, 2023, deferred compensation plan expense was $3,777 as compared to deferred compensation plan income of $12,159 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, deferred compensation plan expense was $7,923 as compared to deferred compensation plan income of $17,297 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. These amounts were attributable to the marked to market impact on deferred compensation plan liability balances period over period.
Amortization of purchased intangibles. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, on a constant currency basis, amortization of purchased intangibles decreased primarily due to previously acquired intangible assets that continue to become fully amortized and lower acquisition activity as compared to the prior year.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded discrete tax benefits of $20,394 and $19,024, respectively, primarily associated with windfall tax benefits from stock‑based compensation, net of the impact from officer compensation limitation provisions.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the effective tax rate was higher compared to the prior year period primarily due to the decrease in discrete tax benefits recognized in the current year period and the increase in the forecasted effective tax rate impact of the GILTI inclusion due to the mandatory capitalization of research and development expenses for U.S. tax purposes.

Key Business Metrics
In addition to our results of operations discussed above, we believe the following presentation of key business metrics provides additional useful information to investors regarding our results of operations. To the extent material, we disclose below the additional purposes, if any, for which our management uses these key business metrics. Our key business metrics may vary significantly from period to period for reasons unrelated to our operating performance and may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

Recurring revenues
Recurring revenues are the basis for our other revenue-related key business metrics. We believe this measure is useful in evaluating our ability to consistently retain and grow our revenues within our existing accounts.
Recurring revenues are subscriptions revenues that recur monthly, quarterly, or annually with specific or automatic renewal clauses and professional services revenues in which the underlying contract is based on a fixed fee and contains automatic annual renewal provisions.
42


ARR
ARR is a key business metric that we believe is useful in evaluating the scale and growth of our business as well as to assist in the evaluation of underlying trends in our business. Furthermore, we believe ARR, considered in connection with our last twelve‑month recurring revenues dollar‑based net retention rate, is a leading indicator of revenue growth.
ARR is defined as the sum of the annualized value of our portfolio of contracts that produce recurring revenues as of the last day of the reporting period, and the annualized value of the last three months of recognized revenues for our contractually recurring consumption‑based software subscriptions with consumption measurement durations of less than one year, calculated using the spot foreign exchange rates. We believe that the last three months of recognized revenues, on an annualized basis, for our recurring software subscriptions with consumption measurement period durations of less than one year is a reasonable estimate of the annual revenues, given our consistently high retention rate and stability of usage under such subscriptions.
ARR resulting from the annualization of recurring contracts with consumption measurement durations of less than one year, as a percentage of total ARR, was 45% and 40% as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Within our consumption‑measured ARR, the continued transition to our E365 subscription offering has increased daily consumption‑measured ARR, representing 38% and 32% of total ARR as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, ARR was reduced by $11,190 due to our decision to exit the Russian market.
Constant currency ARR growth rate is the growth rate of ARR measured on a constant currency basis. We believe that ARR growth is an important metric indicating the scale and growth of our business.
Last twelve‑months recurring revenues
Last twelve‑month recurring revenues is a key business metric that we believe is useful in evaluating our ability to consistently retain and grow our recurring revenues. We believe that we will continue to experience favorable growth in recurring revenues primarily due to our strong account retention and recurring revenues dollar‑based net retention rates, as well as the addition of new accounts with recurring revenues.
Last twelve‑months recurring revenues is calculated as recurring revenues recognized over the preceding twelve‑month period.
The last twelve‑months recurring revenues for the periods ended June 30, 2023 compared to the last twelve‑months of the comparative twelve‑month period increased by $111,143. This increase was primarily due to growth in ARR, which is primarily the result of growing our recurring revenues within our existing accounts as expressed in our recurring revenues dollar‑based net retention rate, as well as additional recurring revenues resulting from new accounts and acquisitions, including the favorable impact from our platform acquisition of PLS. For the twelve months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, 89% and 88%, respectively, of our revenues were recurring revenues.
Account retention rate
Account retention rate is a key business metric that we believe is useful in evaluating the long‑term value of our account relationships and our ability to retain our account base. We believe that our consistent and high account retention rates illustrate our ability to retain and cultivate long‑term relationships with our accounts.
Account retention rate for any given twelve-month period is calculated using the average currency exchange rates for the prior period, as follows: the prior period recurring revenues from all accounts with recurring revenues in the current and prior period, divided by total recurring revenues from all accounts during the prior period.
43


Recurring revenues dollar‑based net retention rate
Recurring revenues dollar‑based net retention rate is a key business metric that we believe is useful in evaluating our ability to consistently retain and grow our recurring revenues.
Recurring revenues dollar‑based net retention rate is calculated, using the average exchange rates for the prior period, as follows: the recurring revenues for the current period, including any growth or reductions from existing accounts, but excluding recurring revenues from any new accounts added during the current period, divided by the total recurring revenues from all accounts during the prior period. A period is defined as any trailing twelve months. Related to our platform acquisitions, recurring revenues into new accounts will be captured as existing accounts starting with the second anniversary of the acquisition when such data conforms to the calculation methodology. This may cause variability in the comparison.
Given that recurring revenues represented 89% of our total revenues for the twelve months ended June 30, 2023, this metric helps explain our revenue performance, excluding the impact from acquisitions, as primarily growth into existing accounts.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP discussed above, we believe the following presentation of financial measures not in accordance with GAAP provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations. To the extent material, we disclose below the additional purposes, if any, for which our management uses these non‑GAAP financial measures and provide reconciliations between these non‑GAAP financial measures and their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Non‑GAAP financial information should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or in isolation from, the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, including operating income, or other measures of performance. Our non‑GAAP financial measures may vary significantly from period to period for reasons unrelated to our operating performance and may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
Adjusted OI w/SBC
Adjusted OI w/SBC is a non-GAAP financial measure and is used to measure the operational strength and performance of our business, as well as to assist in the evaluation of underlying trends in our business.
Adjusted OI w/SBC is our primary performance measure, which excludes certain expenses and charges, including the non-cash amortization expense resulting from the acquisition of intangible assets, as we believe these may not be indicative of the Company’s core business operating results. We intentionally include stock-based compensation expense in this measure as we believe it better captures the economic costs of our business.
Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for internal budgeting and forecasting purposes, to evaluate financial performance, and in our comparison of our financial results to those of other companies. It is also a significant performance measure in certain of our executive incentive compensation programs.
Adjusted OI w/SBC is defined as operating income adjusted for the following: amortization of purchased intangibles, expense (income) relating to deferred compensation plan liabilities, acquisition expenses, and realignment expenses (income), for the respective periods.
Adjusted operating income
Adjusted operating income is a non-GAAP financial measure that we believe is useful to investors in making comparisons to other companies, although this measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies.

Adjusted operating income is defined as operating income adjusted for the following: amortization of purchased intangibles, expense (income) relating to deferred compensation plan liabilities, acquisition expenses, realignment expenses (income), and stock‑based compensation expense, for the respective periods.

Adjusted operating income $ 90,927 $ 81,674 $ 200,589 $ 175,006
Further explanation of certain of our adjustments in arriving at Adjusted OI w/SBC and Adjusted operating income are as follows:
(1) Amortization of purchased intangibles . Amortization of purchased intangibles varies in amount and frequency and is significantly impacted by the timing and size of our acquisitions. Management finds it useful to exclude these non‑cash charges from our operating expenses to assist in budgeting, planning, and forecasting future periods. The use of intangible assets contributed to our revenues earned during the periods presented and will also contribute to our revenues in future periods. Amortization of purchased intangible assets will recur in future periods.
(2) Deferred compensation plan . We exclude Deferred compensation plan expense (income) when we evaluate our continuing operational performance because it is not reflective of our ongoing business and results of operation. We believe it is useful for investors to understand the effects of this item on our total operating expenses. Deferred compensation plan liabilities are marked to market at the end of each reporting period, with changes in the liabilities recorded as an expense (income) to Deferred compensation plan in the consolidated statements of operations.
(3) Acquisition expenses . We incur expenses for professional services rendered in connection with business combinations, which are included in our U.S. GAAP presentation of general and administrative expense (See Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q). Also included in our acquisition expenses are retention incentives paid to executives of the acquired companies. We exclude these acquisition expenses when we evaluate our continuing operational performance as we would not have otherwise incurred these expenses in the periods presented as part of our continuing operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, $26 and $9,799, respectively, of our acquisition expenses related to our platform acquisition of PLS.
(4) Realignment expenses (income) . We exclude these charges and subsequent adjustments to our estimates when we evaluate our continuing operational performance because they are not reflective of our ongoing business and results of operations. We believe it is useful for investors to understand the effects of these items on our total operating expenses. In the ordinary course of operating our business, we incur severance expenses that are not included in this adjustment. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Realignment expenses were comprised of asset impairments and termination benefits as a result of our decision to wind down business and exit the Russian market beginning in the second quarter of 2022. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, Realignment expenses (income) primarily relates to the continued wind down of our Russian entities.
(5) Stock‑based compensation expense . We exclude non-cash stock‑based compensation expenses from certain of our non‑GAAP measures because we believe this is useful to investors in making comparisons to other companies.
45


Constant currency
Constant currency and constant currency growth rates are non-GAAP financial measures that present our results of operations excluding the estimated effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We have operations outside the U.S. that are conducted in local currencies. As a result, the comparability of the financial results reported in U.S. dollars is affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We use constant currency and constant currency growth rates to evaluate the underlying performance of the business, and we believe it is helpful for investors to present operating results on a comparable basis period over period to evaluate its underlying performance.
In reporting period‑over‑period results, we calculate the effects of foreign currency fluctuations and constant currency information by translating current period results using prior period average foreign currency exchange rates.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary source of operating cash is from the sale of subscriptions, perpetual licenses, and services. Our primary use of cash is payment of our operating costs, which consist primarily of headcount‑related costs. In addition to operating expenses, we also use cash to service our debt obligations, to pay quarterly dividends, to repurchase our Class B Common Stock and convertible debt, and for capital expenditures in support of our operations. We also use cash to fund our acquisitions of software assets and businesses, and other investment activities, including our iTwin Ventures initiative which makes seed, early, and growth stage investments in technology companies with promising and emerging opportunities for infrastructure digital twin solutions potentially relevant to our business.
We have the right to require that certain equity awardees receive gross or net quantities of shares of our Class B Common Stock. On a gross basis, this determination is most meaningfully for the issuance of shares in connection with our executive bonus plan incentive compensation and distributions from the DCP, as awardees promptly reimburse to us the cash required for their tax withholding amounts. On a net basis, shares are withheld in consideration of remitting withholding taxes on behalf of equity awardees, thereby requiring us to remit cash for the tax withholdings. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, and the first quarter of 2022, we allowed certain equity awardees the option to receive net quantities of shares of our Class B Common Stock, whereas during the second quarter of 2022, we exercised our right to require that certain equity awardees receive gross quantities of shares of our Class B Common Stock. We will continue to evaluate whether share awards will be required to be received by awardees on a gross basis, or if net settlement may be elected by awardees.
We believe that existing domestic and international cash and cash equivalent balances, together with cash generated from operations, and liquidity under the Credit Facility, will be sufficient to meet our domestic and international working capital and capital expenditure requirements through the next twelve months. However, our future capital requirements may be materially different than those currently planned in our budgeting and forecasting activities and depend on many factors, including our strategy of regularly acquiring and integrating specialized infrastructure engineering software businesses, our rate of revenue growth, the timing and extent of spending on research and development, the expansion of our sales and marketing activities, the timing of new product introductions, market acceptance of our products, competitive factors, our discretionary payments of dividends or repurchases of our Class B Common Stock and convertible debt, currency fluctuations, and overall economic conditions, globally. To the extent that current and anticipated future sources of liquidity are insufficient to fund our future business activities and requirements, we may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. The sale of additional equity would result in additional dilution to our stockholders, while the incurrence of debt financing, including convertible debt, would result in debt service obligations. Such debt instruments also could introduce covenants that might restrict our operations. We cannot provide assurance that we could obtain additional financing on favorable terms or at all.

Investing activities (29,752) (723,967)
Financing activities (215,976) 325,773
Operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $256,819 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Compared to the same period in the prior year, net cash provided by operating activities was higher by $88,089 due to an increase in net cash flows from the change in operating assets and liabilities of $73,814 and a net increase in non‑cash adjustments of $32,161, partially offset by a decrease in net income of $17,886. The increase in cash flows from the change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a decrease in accounts receivable period over period due to the timing of collections from accounts, an increase in deferred revenues period over period, higher accounts payable, higher CSS deposits, and the overall timing of tax payments.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There have been no material changes in our market risk exposure as described in Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10‑K.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management maintains disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a‑15(e) and 15d‑15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is processed, recorded, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Bentley Systems, Incorporated have been detected.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a or 15d of the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
