PTC reported fourth-quarter and full-year results on November 4, covering the fiscal year ended September 30, 2026. The company said fourth-quarter revenue declined 24 percent year over year on a constant-currency basis, while annual run rate increased 1 percent on an as-reported basis. The figures reflect the effect of divested businesses and other items linked to the company's portfolio changes.

PTC stock traded at 176.50 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 23:00 CET on Wednesday, November 11, 2026. The quote provides the latest euro-denominated reference for investors following the results and the pending transaction.

Results Show A Mixed Quarter

PTC said fourth-quarter cash flow included approximately 24 million US dollars of divestiture-related costs and approximately 75 million US dollars of related cash taxes. The company said these items are not expected to recur in future years. Investors therefore need to distinguish the reported quarterly figures from the underlying recurring software activity and from the effects of portfolio changes.

The company also said that, following the definitive agreement to be acquired by Schneider Electric announced on October 5, it is suspending quarterly earnings conference calls and no longer providing quarterly or annual guidance. That change reduces the amount of forward operating information available while the proposed transaction advances.
