Bentley Systems, Inc. announced results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2024
EXTON, PA, Aug 6, 2024 – Bentley Systems, Inc. announced results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2024. For the second quarter of 2024, the company reported revenue of $330.3M down 2.2% compared to $337.8M revenue of first quarter of 2024, with net income $72M.
Executive Chair Greg Bentley said, “We are pleased to report broadly favorable operating results for 24Q2. Our confidence in sustaining commendable performance is reinforced by the enduring—and if anything, broadening— vitality of our infrastructure engineering end markets, met with BSY’s competitive advantages and reliably efficient execution. But to me, the long-term potential of initiatives being explored and developed under our new generation of executive leadership seems even more auspicious!”
CEO Nicholas Cumins said, “Our performance in 24Q2 and the first half provides a solid foundation for the full year, with very positive end-market and operational momentum. Our year-over-year ARR growth of 11% on a constant currency basis (11.5% excluding China) is consistent with the previous quarter. Public Works / Utilities and North America remained the main growth drivers, and we continued to add new small- and medium-sized accounts at a rapid pace, reflecting healthy market conditions.
The traction we are generating with our AI-based solutions for asset analytics is worth noting. AI is going to become a major driver of our business, to help owner-operators improve the performance of their assets and make infrastructure more resilient, as well as to help engineering services firms increase their productivity and bridge the widening engineering resources capacity gap.”
CFO Werner Andre said, “24Q2 financial performance positions us solidly within our annual outlook range for ARR growth, profitability, and operating cash flow. While our mainstay subscription revenues are exceeding expectations, year-over-year growth in total revenues is being impacted by the expected prevalence of lower non-recurring professional services for our Cohesive digital integrator. Continued strong margins and operating cash flows throughout the first half, net of dividends and stock repurchases, further enhanced our balance sheet and acquisition flexibility.”
