Industrial Design and Tourism: Autodesk
Autodesk is
mostly associated with industrial design. The company has been developing
industrial design solutions for many years. Professional schools are educating
students on Autodesk software products. The company has successfully adopted to
the modern realities and introduced the subscription payment business model. This
move has made its services readily available. It has become accessible to those
who would not allow for one-time license fees for a long period of time.
The demand
for the company’s products is sustainable, business margins are improving,
while net cash flows allow for the buy-back of its own shares. The company conducted
a $464 million buy-back in the financial Q1 2022. This is certainly not enough
for stock prices to grow at the same pace as its younger peers. This is more a
value stock that may help to survive in turbulent times. The return to $250 per
share is expected, but no super profit should be considered.
The company’s
revenues grew 18% year-on year to $1.17 billion for the Q1 2022. The major
business segment Architecture, Engineering, and Construction that is
responsible for 45% of the total revenues has reported that it signed its
second largest ever enterprise agreement with an infrastructure company. A new
product Bridge has been launched targeting the subcontractor audience. The
suspension of the company’s operations in Russia would cost $115 million per
year, but it has caused minor damage to the company as it has almost $5 billion
annual revenues.
The operational
margin grew to 34%, and operational profit went up by 42% year-on-year to $397
million in the Q1 2022. Free cash flows rose by 34% year-on-year to $422
million.
