Online Workshop: EGNOS approaches for robust Helicopter Emergency Services

16.11.2020 13:09   European GNSS Agency  
The workshop powered by the GSA and EHA intends to familiarize attendees with the process of implementing EGNOS-based approaches for HEMS
Published: 
16 November 2020

The European GNSS Agency, together with the European Helicopter Association (EHA), is organizing a joint workshop on the use of EGNOS for Helicopter Emergency Medical Services (HEMS). The online panel discussion, scheduled for Wednesday 18 November 2020 at 14:00 (CET), is open to private and public health organisations, HEMS operators, pilots, and relevant healthcare stakeholders.

Air medical services are crucial in times of crisis and emergencies,and are an integral part of many healthcare systems across the globe. Oftentimes, adverse weather conditions or other factors such as smoke cause helicopters to divert or abort landings. In addition, many hospitals lack costly ground-based helicopter navigation equipment to provide guidance in bad weather, which may lead to significant delays when time is of the essence.

Today, thanks to EGNOS, the European Satellite-Based Augmentation System, pilots can navigate through the clouds and fog, and land safely. With over 700 EGNOS-based procedures at 367 airports and helipads, the system increases safety, accessibility and efficiency for operators and pilots approaching airport and helipads in Europe. 

Read this: EGNOS key for emergency and medical operations in EU COVID-19 response

With a unique lineup of EGNOS and HEMS experts, operators and service providers, the workshop, powered by the GSA and EHA, intends to familiarize attendees with the process of implementing EGNOS-based approaches for HEMS, while promoting the success-stories of EGNOS-aided HEMS operations across Europe. Participants will hear from experienced helicopter pilots explaining how to land with the enhanced vertical precision and integrity provided by the EU SBAS. Stakeholders, ranging from operators to manufacturers and instrument flight procedures designers, will complement the discussion with precious insights on the best practices and benefits deriving from implementing EGNOS procedures for hospital heliports.

This workshop is of particular interest to organisations considering the implementation of new routes or flight procedures based on EGNOS for HEMS. Participants will have the opportunity to interact with the speakers through a Q&A. To join us online, click here!

Ways the Czech Republic benefits from the EU Space Programme

13.11.2020 16:07   European GNSS Agency  
Rodrido da Costa, Executive Director of the European GNSS Agency
Published: 
13 November 2020

The GSA Executive Director, Rodrigo da Costa, joined the Czech Space Week to welcome the participants attending this year’s online edition. The Czech Republic is an active member of the EU Space community, and with EU Space technologies growing at an unprecedented pace, the future looks bright. 

The Czech Space Week 2020 celebrates space science and technology attracting young professionals, students and space enthusiasts supported by aerospace companies, schools, museums, planetaria across the country.

The contribution of the Czech Republic to Europe’s space achievements is well-known. From Europe’s first cosmonaut -Vladimir Remek- orbiting the Earth, to becoming the hosting country of the European GNSS Agency in 2012, the Czech Republic has a long-standing history in space, leveraging #EUSpace technology to improve infrastructure, stimulate innovation, create jobs and ensure the well-being of citizens.

On the occasion of the Czech Space Week, it is worthwhile to focus on four ways, out of many, the Czech Republic is making great use of Galileo and EGNOS:

  1. Equipping Prague trams with state-of-the-art Galileo receivers: As part of the modernization of the city´s tram fleet, by the end of 2020, Prague trams will be benefiting from Galileo’s additional accuracy to increase network efficiency and improve user experience.
  2. Easing the flow of goods across EU borders: Thanks to their expertise, Czech companies have contributed to the development of the ‘’Galileo Green Lane App’’, the mobile application that facilitates the flow of freight and critical goods across the EU borders during COVID.
  3. Boosting innovation among the youth: Aspiring young students from the Mendel University in Brno, have joined forces with professionals from other EU countries to help develop the H2020 funded GreenPatrol project, which uses Galileo’s robust signals to perform pest detection in crops. 
  4. Rolling out safer and cleaner forms of air travel: Six Czech airports -including Prague Vaclav Havel Airport- are more accessible even under challenging weather conditions thanks to EGNOS, the EU regional satellite navigation system. Accurate guidance by EGNOS satellites reduces the number of go-arounds (aborted landings) resulting in less noise and less emissions.

‘’The GSA’s core mission is to ensure that European citizens make the most of the European Union Space Programme. By having users in the driver seat, the agency has been able to deliver state of the art, secure satellite-based services to respond to user needs’’ says Rodrigo da Costa, GSA Executive Director.

‘’2021 will mark an important evolution for the EU Space Programme with the transformation of the GSA into the European Union Space Programme Agency, bringing new opportunities. I am sure the Czech Republic will continue to fly the EU Space Programme flag high.’’ da Costa concludes.

If you are keen on satellite navigation, Earth Observation, governmental satellite communications or simply are working in a market that can benefit from the EU Space Programme, join the European Space Week 2020. This year, the top EU space event is brought to your screens from 7th until the 11th December 2020

  1. Equipping Prague trams with state-of-the-art Galileo receivers: As part of the modernization of the city´s tram fleet, by the end of 2020, Prague trams will be benefiting from Galileo’s additional accuracy to increase network efficiency and improve user experience.
  2. Easing the flow of goods across EU borders: Thanks to their expertise, Czech companies have contributed to the development of the ‘’Galileo Green Lane App’’, the mobile application that facilitates the flow of freight and critical goods across the EU borders during COVID.
  3. Boosting innovation among the youth: Aspiring young students from the Mendel University in Brno, have joined forces with professionals from other EU countries to help develop the H2020 funded GreenPatrol project, which uses Galileo’s robust signals to perform pest detection in crops. 
  4. Rolling out safer and cleaner forms of air travel: Six Czech airports -including Prague Vaclav Havel Airport- are more accessible even under challenging weather conditions thanks to EGNOS, the EU regional satellite navigation system. Accurate guidance by EGNOS satellites reduces the number of go-arounds (aborted landings) resulting in less noise and less emissions.

‘’The GSA’s core mission is to ensure that European citizens make the most of the European Union Space Programme. By having users in the driver seat, the agency has been able to deliver state of the art, secure satellite-based services to respond to user needs’’ says Rodrigo da Costa, GSA Executive Director.

‘’2021 will mark an important evolution for the EU Space Programme with the transformation of the GSA into the European Union Space Programme Agency, bringing new opportunities. I am sure the Czech Republic will continue to fly the EU Space Programme flag high.’’ da Costa concludes.

If you are keen on satellite navigation, Earth Observation, governmental satellite communications or simply are working in a market that can benefit from the EU Space Programme, join the European Space Week 2020. This year, the top EU space event is brought to your screens from 7th until the 11th December 2020

Final preparations are underway in California for the launch of Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich, a joint European and US satellite designed to take precise measurements of sea-level change. The satellite forms part of the European Union’s Copernicus Earth Observation programme and will employ a radar altimeter to map sea-surface topography. The satellite will provide fundamental data for climate science and policymaking, helping to protect the 600 million people who live in vulnerable coastal areas. It will also deliver near-realtime information for marine and weather forecasts.

The mission is a collaboration between ESA, the European Commission, EUMETSAT, NASA and NOAA, with support from the French space agency CNES. Scheduled for launch on 21 November on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from the Vandenberg Air Force Base on the California coast, the satellite is named Michael Freilich after NASA’s former Director of Earth Science.

Alstom pioneers the use of Galileo to help measure the location and speed of trains

11.11.2020 12:25   European GNSS Agency  
Alstom obtains certification of latest ETCS standard. ©Alstom.
Published: 
11 November 2020

In June 2020, Alstom became the first railway manufacturer to integrate certified data fusion algorithms for fail-safe train localization, using position and speed of trains based on GNSS data coming from multiple constellations including Galileo, the European Union navigation satellite system.

The added-value of Galileo and EGNOS, the European Union Global Navigation Satellite System (EGNSS) in the European railway sector  is widely known, especially when it comes to non-safety applications, such asset management and passenger information services. In recent years, however, with multi-constellation becoming the norm and multifrequency receivers being adopted rapidly, rail stakeholders view GNSS-based solutions as game-changers for the future of European Train Control System (ETCS). 

A recent example of E-GNSS adoption in rail operations is the innovative odometry solution deployed by Alstom to measure the location and speed of its trains. The French rolling stock manufacturer introduced a new sensor type, with a hybridisation of satellite information and inertial sensors. The solution is primarily using GNSS Doppler information, derived from Galileo, GPS and GLONASS constellations (configurable). Such use allows to improve the overall confidence in the resulting speed, along with specific algorithms to master the resulting location accuracy. The GNSS receiver is an automotive grade receiver manufactured by u-blox. The Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) used to supplement information in case of GNSS loss is based on enhanced micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) technology, with temperature compensation. The new odometry system based on data fusion, which Alstom is currently implementing in Norway, is applicable to all types of trains and all environments, including the harshest weather conditions. It is estimated that by 2026, 450 trains will be equipped with this new feature across Norway.

Increased Safety, Lower Costs for rail companies

Wheel slipping and sliding especially during demanding weather conditions can affect the odometer accuracy and the proper functioning of the different sensors involved. By incorporating Galileo signals as an extra layer of accuracy, Alstom managed to create a system that is capable of providing a more robust speed and location estimate. This space data fusion approach -certified by Belgorail- minimizes the need for the costly external radar components for localisation and speed measurement currently used.

“Industry embedding Galileo in their solutions is the proof that we are on the right path to ensure the market uptake of the EU Space Programme technology. This is a recognition of the capability of EGNSS to reduce the need for infrastructure and related cost, while maintaining the operational safety of ETCS.” Declared Rodrigo da Costa, GSA Executive Director.

In June 2020, Alstom became the first railway manufacturer to integrate certified data fusion algorithms for fail-safe train localization, using position and speed of trains based on GNSS data coming from multiple constellations notably Galileo, the European Union navigation satellite system.

The added-value of Galileo and EGNOS, the European Union Global Navigation Satellite System (EGNSS) in the European railway sector when it comes to non-safety applications, such asset management and passenger information services is widely known. In recent years, however, with multi-constellation being the norm and multifrequency receivers being adopted rapidly, rail stakeholders view GNSS-based solutions as game changers for the future of European Train Control System (ETCS). 

A recent example of E-GNSS adoption in rail operations is the innovative odometry solution deployed by Alstom to measure the location and speed of its trains. The French rail product manufacturer introduced a new sensor type, with a hybridisation of satellite information and inertial sensors (IMU). The solution is primarily using GNSS Doppler information, derived from Galileo, GPS and GLONASS constellations (configurable). Such use allows to improve the overall confidence in the resulting speed, along with specific algorithms to master the resulting location accuracy. The GNSS receiver is an automotive grade receiver manufactured by Ublox. The IMU used to supplement information in case of GNSS loss is based on enhanced MEMS technology, with temperature compensation. The new odometry system based on data fusion, which Alstom is currently implementing in Norway, is applicable to all types of trains and all environments, including the harshest weather conditions. It is estimated that by 2026, 450 trains will be equipped with this new feature across Norway.

Increased Safety, Lower Costs for rail companies

Wheel slipping and sliding especially during demanding weather conditions can affect the odometer accuracy and the proper functioning of the different sensors involved. By incorporating Galileo signals as an extra layer of accuracy, Alstom managed to create a system that is capable of providing a more robust speed and location estimate. This space data fusion approach -certified by Belgorail- minimizes the need for the costly external radar components for localisation and speed measurement that are used today.

“Industry embedding Galileo in their solutions is the proof that we are on the right path to ensure the market uptake of the EU Space Programme technology. This is a recognition of the capability of EGNSS to reduce the need for infrastructure and related cost, while maintaining the operational safety of ETCS.” Declared Rodrigo da Costa, GSA Executive Director.

New Galileo-inspired opportunities for Critical Infrastructures management presented at ITSF 2020

10.11.2020 14:14   European GNSS Agency  
With only 0,7% of the overall GNSS market, the Critical Infrastructures (CI) segment, is driven by its strategic importance rather than its size.
Published: 
10 November 2020

The European GNSS Agency joined the global timing and sync community at the International Timing and Sync Forum (ITSF) 2020 to share Galileo-based applications for Critical Infrastructures.

The International Timing and Sync Forum (ITSF) is the largest time and synchronisation conferences showcasing solutions for 4G/5G, Finance, Broadcast, Automotive, Smart Grids, IoT, Distributed Datacentres, and Transport and Defence. The European GNSS Agency joined virtually this three-day event to discuss the latest trends in Timing and Synchronisation and present the accurate and cost-effective solutions Galileo can offer to Critical Infrastructures users through newly designed services. 

Critical infrastructures management powered by Galileo

With only 0,7% of the overall GNSS market, the Critical Infrastructures (CI) segment, is driven by its strategic importance rather than its size. Currently, telecommunications represent 90% of the overall CI market and with the arrival of 5G, shipments of GNSS devices are expected to soar. What’s more, new regulations require financial institutions to trace operations within a consistent and accurate time scale, while smart grids are replacing traditional solutions in the field of Energy. Built around these developments, Valeria Catalano, GSA’s Time and Synchronisation expert delivered a presentation highlighting the positive impact of Galileo in the market.

With GNSS taking center stage in the rapid evolutions of this market, and Galileo demonstrating superior performance in comparison to other GNSS constellations, the European GNSS Agency has been investing in Research and Development, and monitoring applications based on Galileo’s robust signals.

Through its Fundamental Elements R&D instrument, the GSA has been developing receivers, antennas and related technology to support the Galileo uptake. GIANO and GEARS are two Fundamental Elements funded projects that are developing Galileo-enabled timing receivers.

  • GIANO: The GIANO receiver will make critical infrastructures such as energy networks more robust against jamming and spoofing.
  • GEARS: The GEARS project will provide accurate and highly robust Galileo-based time and frequency data for critical infrastructures.

Protecting CI and their major components is essential to maintain vital societal functions. With this in mind, the GSA analysed the importance of the following categories of Timing Services based on the achievement of the H2020 DEMETRA project. The applications are of particular interest to Critical Infrastructures user as well as laboratories.

  • Time Integrity (dashboard): providing the validation and performance assessment of the timing information disseminated by the Galileo system. 
  • Trusted Time Distribution and Remote Audit: enabling the remote assessment of the client clock synchronisation and allowing the dissemination of UTC time and frequency over the Internet. 
  • Certified Time Steering and Monitoring: disseminating precise and accurate time using multi-GNSS Galileo-based Time transfer and providing real-time monitoring and certification of the time offset between the user terminal and the time reference facility.
  • Robust Accurate Time: offering robustness against GNSS signals, system failures (incl. jamming and spoofing) and against failures or attack on the communication network.

According to the GSA GNSS 2019 Market Report the resilience of the timing functionality is paramount in order to ensure service continuity in CI. Galileo’s Open Service Navigation Message Authentication (OSNMA) will be particularly relevant to Critical Infrastructures’ operators to improve trustability, resilience and ease of traceability. 

In addition, Galileo’s High Accuracy Service will provide network operators with a very high level of Timing accuracy, improving Timing stability. This could ease the deployment challenges and allow the development of new value-added services. To find out more about the Galileo High Accuracy Service (HAS) stay tuned for the upcoming Info Note.

The European GNSS Agency joined the global timing and sync community at the International Timing and Sync Forum (ITSF) 2020 to share Galileo-based applications for Critical Infrastructures.

The International Timing and Sync Forum (ITSF) is one of the largest time and synchronisation conferences showcasing solutions for 4G/5G, Finance, Broadcast, Automotive, Smart Grids, IoT, Distributed Datacentres, and Transport and Defence. The European GNSS Agency joined virtually this three-day event to discuss the latest trends in Timing and Synchronisation and present the accurate and cost-effective solutions Galileo can offer to Critical Infrastructures users through newly designed services. 

Critical infrastructures management powered by Galileo

With only 0,7% of the overall GNSS market, the Critical Infrastructures (CI) segment, is driven by its strategic importance rather than its size. Currently, telecommunications represent 90% of the overall CI market and with the arrival of 5G, shipments of GNSS devices are expected to soar. What’s more, new regulations require financial institutions to trace operations within a consistent and accurate time scale, while smart grids are replacing traditional solutions in the field of Energy. Built around these developments, Valeria Catalano, GSA’s Time and Synchronisation expert delivered a presentation highlighting the positive impact of Galileo in the market.

With GNSS taking center stage in the rapid evolutions of this market, and Galileo demonstrating superior performance in comparison to other GNSS constellations, the European GNSS Agency has been investing in Research and Development, and monitoring applications based on Galileo’s robust signals.

Through its Fundamental Elements R&D instrument, the GSA has been developing receivers, antennas and related technology to support the Galileo uptake. GIANO and GEARS are two Fundamental Elements funded projects that are developing Galileo-enabled timing receivers.

  • GIANO: The GIANO receiver will make critical infrastructures such as energy networks more robust against jamming and spoofing.
  • GEARS: The GEARS project will provide accurate and highly robust Galileo-based time and frequency data for critical infrastructures.

Protecting CI and their major components is essential to maintain vital societal functions. With this in mind, the GSA analysed the importance of the following categories of Timing Services based on the achievement of the H2020 DEMETRA project. The applications are of particular interest to Critical Infrastructures user as well as laboratories.

  • Time Integrity (dashboard): providing the validation and performance assessment of the timing information disseminated by the Galileo system. 
  • Trusted Time Distribution and Remote Audit: enabling the remote assessment of the client clock synchronisation and allowing the dissemination of UTC time and frequency over the Internet. 
  • Certified Time Steering and Monitoring: disseminating precise and accurate time using multi-GNSS Galileo-based Time transfer and providing real-time monitoring and certification of the time offset between the user terminal and the time reference facility.
  • Robust Accurate Time: offering robustness against GNSS signals, system failures (incl. jamming and spoofing) and against failures or attack on the communication network.

According to the GSA GNSS 2019 Market Report the resilience of the timing functionality is paramount in order to ensure service continuity in CI. Galileo’s Open Service Navigation Message Authentication (OSNMA) will be particularly relevant to Critical Infrastructures’ operators to improve trustability, resilience and ease of traceability.

Bentley Systems Announces Operating Results for Third Quarter 2020

10.11.2020 13:08   Bentley Systems  

EXTON, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 10, 2020-- Bentley Systems, Incorporated (Nasdaq: BSY) (“Bentley Systems” or the “Company”), the infrastructure engineering software company, today announced operating results for its quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Third Quarter 2020 Financial Results:

  • Total revenues were $203.0 million, up 8.8% year-over-year;
  • Subscriptions revenues were $173.2 million, up 11.6% year-over-year;
  • Last twelve-month recurring revenues were $682.7 million, up 11.0% year-over-year;
  • Last twelve-month recurring revenues dollar-based net retention rate was 110%, compared to 107% for the same period last year;
  • Last twelve-month account retention rate was 98%, consistent with the same period last year;
  • Annualized Recurring Revenue (“ARR”) was $715.3 million as of September 30, 2020, representing Constant currency growth in ARR of 9% over September 30, 2019;
  • GAAP operating income was $5.3 million, compared to $41.4 million for the same period last year;
  • GAAP net income was $5.8 million, compared to $20.4 million for the same period last year. GAAP net income per diluted share was $0.02, compared to $0.07 for the same period last year;
  • Adjusted Net Income was $51.4 million, compared to $39.3 million for the same period last year. Adjusted Net Income per diluted share was $0.17 compared to $0.14 for the same period last year;
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $73.6 million, compared to $52.8 million for the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 36.3%, compared to 28.3% for the same period last year;
  • Cash flow from operations was $39.8 million, compared to $35.5 million for the same period last year.

Definitions of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release and reconciliations of such measures to their nearest GAAP equivalents are included below under the heading “Use and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

“Our encouraging operating results for the third quarter of 2020 continue to reinforce the relative resilience of infrastructure engineering, and the priority placed by our user organizations this year on going digital, as they have resourcefully ‘virtualized’ their mission-critical work,” said  Greg Bentley , CEO. “2020’s inflection in their digital advancement is evidenced by the burgeoning use cases for infrastructure digital twins which our users and accounts showcased at our just-completed Year in Infrastructure 2020 Conference.”

Mr. Bentley  continued, “Although infrastructure investment at large-- and our predictable business model-- continues to demonstrate resilience, we have now discerned a change within our application usage trends. During the first half of 2020 we could see waves of pandemic-related lockdowns adversely impacting our days of usage by a few percent, and then abating progressively by region. Beginning in the third quarter, we’ve been observing global usage impacts that instead are primarily a function of infrastructure sector -- with the commercial / facilities sector most affected, and our mainstay public works and utilities sector least affected. In the industrial / resources sector, capital projects activity has now perceptibly declined, reducing consumption of our applications by those affected (‘EPC’ engineering / procurement / construction firms). EPC accounts tend to have been early adopters of our consumption-based E365 commercial model, so our ARR and revenue growth are being somewhat attenuated. Our usual visibility into ARR momentum is likely to remain obscured to this degree.”

“Overall, we are nonetheless confident about promising returns on the purposeful reinvestment of our significant 2020 cost savings. Our new Chief Product Officer ( Nicholas Cumins ), inaugural Chief Success Officer ( Katriona Lord-Levins ), and new Chief Marketing Officer ( Chris Bradshaw ) bring us world-class public company experience in succession to many of our ‘foundation pillar’ executives whose retirements, upon our IPO after 36 years, have been anticipated. While maintaining our commitment to annual improvement in operating efficiency and margins, we are enthusiastically investing to accelerate accretion in our existing accounts, to better reach more small and mid-market prospects, to further enable our applications and systems through our iTwins Platform, and to develop our ecosystem of digital integrators to curate infrastructure digital twins.”

Financial Developments:

  • In August 2020Bentley Systems declared a special dividend of $1.50 per share ($392.5 million in the aggregate) and used its bank credit facility to fund the special dividend.
  • In September 2020Bentley Systems completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) of its Class B common stock at a price of $22.00 per share. Selling stockholders completed the sale of 12.4 million shares, including 1.6 million shares issued pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock by the selling stockholders in the IPO. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded in its consolidated statement of operations $26.1 million in expenses associated with its IPO. Expenses associated with the IPO include certain non‐recurring costs consisting of underwriting discounts and commissions applicable to the sale of shares by the selling stockholders, professional fees, and other expenses.
  • During the third quarter of 2020, the Company initiated a strategic realignment program to better align talent resources with the evolving needs of the business. The Company incurred realignment costs related to this program of $10.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, representing termination benefits for colleagues whose positions were eliminated. These realignment activities have been broadly implemented across the company with substantially all actions expected to be completed by the beginning of 2021.
  • For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company reported an effective tax rate of 62.5% and 22.6% respectively. The unusually high effective tax rate, especially in the third quarter, is primarily due to officer compensation limitation provisions resulting from the Company’s IPO and the non‑deductibility of expenses associated with the Company’s IPO, partially offset by increased tax benefits from stock‑based compensation.

2020 Financial Outlook

For the full year of 2020, the Company currently expects:

  • Total revenues in the range of $790 million to $800 million, representing growth of 7.2% to 8.6%;
  • Constant currency growth in ARR of 7.5% to 9.0%;
  • Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $250 million to $265 million, representing growth of 33% to 41%, including the impact of transitioning approximately $7.5 million of quarterly executive compensation from cash-based incentives to stock-based incentives for the fourth quarter of 2020;
  • Its effective tax rate for 2020 to be 23% to 25%. However, normalized for the unusual IPO-related activity in the third quarter of 2020, the effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 19% to 21%.

Bentley Systems is not providing a quantitative reconciliation of its Non-GAAP financial outlook to the corresponding GAAP information because the GAAP measures that it excludes from its Non-GAAP outlook are not available without unreasonable effort on a forward-looking basis due to their unpredictability, high variability, complexity and low visibility.

Earnings Call Details

Bentley Systems will host a live Zoom Video Webinar on November 10, 2020 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss the financial results for the third quarter of 2020.

Forward-Looking Statements

The foregoing forward-looking statements reflect Bentley Systems’ expectations as of today's date. Given the number of risk factors, uncertainties and assumptions discussed below, actual results may differ materially.

Any statements made in this earnings release that are not statements of historical fact, including statements about our financial outlook and our beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements and should be evaluated as such. Forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations, business plans, and strategies. Forward-looking statements are based on Bentley Systems management’s beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, them. Because such statements are based on expectations as to future financial and operating results and are not statements of fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected. Factors which may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited, to macroeconomic conditions, pandemic consequences, and other factors described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our final prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 24, 2020, and in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, and the Company’s subsequent filings with the SEC. Copies of each filing may be obtained from the Company or the SEC. All forward-looking statements reflect our beliefs and assumptions only as of the date of this press release. We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances.

Definitions of Certain Key Business Metrics

Definitions of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this earnings release and reconciliations of such measures to their nearest GAAP equivalents are included below under “Use and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Certain non-GAAP measures included in our financial outlook are not being reconciled to the comparable GAAP financial measures because the GAAP measures are not accessible on a forward-looking basis. The Company is unable to reconcile these forward looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts because the Company is currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected for these periods not to impact the non-GAAP measures, but would impact GAAP measures. Such unavailable information, which could have a significant impact on the Company’s GAAP financial results, may include stock-based compensation charges, expenses associated with the IPO, depreciation and amortization of capitalized software costs and of acquired intangible assets, realignment expenses, and other items.

Last twelve-month recurring revenues are calculated as recurring revenues recognized over the preceding twelve-month period. We define recurring revenues as subscription 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.

Constant Currency Metrics

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. Our definition of constant currency may differ from other companies reporting similarly named measures, and these constant currency performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, our operating performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

  • Our last twelve-month 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 accounts with recurring revenues in the prior period (“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. The recurring revenues dollar‑based net retention rate is calculated using revenues recognized pursuant to Topic 605 for all periods in order to enhance comparability during our transition to Topic 606 as we do not have all information available to us necessary to present recurring revenues dollar‑based net retention rate pursuant to Topic 606 for any period prior to January 1, 2019.
  • Our last twelve-month 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. The account retention rate is calculated using revenues recognized pursuant to Topic 605 for all periods in order to enhance comparability during our transition to Topic 606 as we do not have all information available to us necessary to present account retention rate pursuant to Topic 606 for any period prior to January 1, 2019.
  • Our Constant currency ARR growth rate is the growth rate of our ARR, measured on a constant currency basis. Our ARR is defined as the sum of the annualized value of our portfolio of contracts that produce recurring revenue 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.

Use and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we have calculated adjusted cost of subscriptions and licenses, adjusted cost of services, adjusted research and development, adjusted selling and marketing, adjusted general and administrative, adjusted income from operations, Adjusted Net IncomeAdjusted Net Income per diluted shareAdjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin, each of which are non-GAAP financial measures. We have provided tabular reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to such measure’s most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for internal budgeting and forecasting purposes, and to evaluate financial performance and liquidity. Our non‑GAAP financial measures are presented as supplemental disclosure as we believe they provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results, prospects, and liquidity period-over-period without the impact of certain items that do not directly correlate to our operating performance and that may vary significantly from period to period for reasons unrelated to our operating performance, as well as to compare our financial results to those of other companies. Our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. In addition, other companies may not publish these or similar metrics. Thus, our non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or in isolation from, the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed with the SEC.

We calculate these non-GAAP financial measures as follows:

  • Adjusted cost of subscriptions and licenses is determined by adding back to GAAP cost of subscriptions and licenses, amortization of purchased intangibles and developed technologies, equity‑based compensation, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
  • Adjusted cost of services is determined by adding back to GAAP cost of services, equity‑based compensation, acquisition expenses, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
  • Adjusted research and development is determined by adding back to GAAP research and development, equity‑based compensation, acquisition expenses, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
  • Adjusted selling and marketing is determined by adding back to GAAP selling and marketing, equity‑based compensation, acquisition expenses, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
  • Adjusted general and administrative is determined by adding back to GAAP general and administrative, equity‑based compensation, acquisition expenses, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
  • Adjusted income from operations is determined by adding back to GAAP operating income, amortization of purchased intangibles and developed technologies, equity‑based compensation, acquisition expenses, realignment expenses, and expenses associated with IPO for the respective periods;
  • Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income adjusted for the following: amortization of purchased intangibles and developed technologies, equity‑based compensation, acquisition expenses, realignment expenses, expenses associated with IPO, other non‑operating income and expense (primarily foreign exchange gain (loss)), net, the tax effect of the above adjustments to net income, non‑recurring income tax expense and benefit, and loss from investment accounted for using the equity method, net of tax. The tax effect of adjustments to net income is based on the estimated marginal effective tax rates in the jurisdictions impacted by such adjustments;
  • Adjusted Net Income per diluted share is determined by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average diluted shares outstanding;
  • Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income adjusted for interest expense, net, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, equity‑based compensation, acquisition expenses, realignment expenses, expenses associated with IPO, other non‑operating income and expense (primarily foreign exchange gain (loss)), net, and loss from investment accounted for using the equity method, net of tax;
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin is determined by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by total revenues.

We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure, and to view these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with the related GAAP financial measures.

Definitions of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release and reconciliations of such measures to their nearest GAAP equivalents are included below under the heading “Use and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

“Our encouraging operating results for the third quarter of 2020 continue to reinforce the relative resilience of infrastructure engineering, and the priority placed by our user organizations this year on going digital, as they have resourcefully ‘virtualized’ their mission-critical work,” said  Greg Bentley , CEO. “2020’s inflection in their digital advancement is evidenced by the burgeoning use cases for infrastructure digital twins which our users and accounts showcased at our just-completed Year in Infrastructure 2020 Conference.”

Mr. Bentley  continued, “Although infrastructure investment at large-- and our predictable business model-- continues to demonstrate resilience, we have now discerned a change within our application usage trends. During the first half of 2020 we could see waves of pandemic-related lockdowns adversely impacting our days of usage by a few percent, and then abating progressively by region. Beginning in the third quarter, we’ve been observing global usage impacts that instead are primarily a function of infrastructure sector -- with the commercial / facilities sector most affected, and our mainstay public works and utilities sector least affected. In the industrial / resources sector, capital projects activity has now perceptibly declined, reducing consumption of our applications by those affected (‘EPC’ engineering / procurement / construction firms). EPC accounts tend to have been early adopters of our consumption-based E365 commercial model, so our ARR and revenue growth are being somewhat attenuated. Our usual visibility into ARR momentum is likely to remain obscured to this degree.”

“Overall, we are nonetheless confident about promising returns on the purposeful reinvestment of our significant 2020 cost savings. Our new Chief Product Officer ( Nicholas Cumins ), inaugural Chief Success Officer ( Katriona Lord-Levins ), and new Chief Marketing Officer ( Chris Bradshaw ) bring us world-class public company experience in succession to many of our ‘foundation pillar’ executives whose retirements, upon our IPO after 36 years, have been anticipated. While maintaining our commitment to annual improvement in operating efficiency and margins, we are enthusiastically investing to accelerate accretion in our existing accounts, to better reach more small and mid-market prospects, to further enable our applications and systems through our iTwins Platform, and to develop our ecosystem of digital integrators to curate infrastructure digital twins.”

Financial Developments:

  • In August 2020Bentley Systems declared a special dividend of $1.50 per share ($392.5 million in the aggregate) and used its bank credit facility to fund the special dividend.
  • In September 2020Bentley Systems completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) of its Class B common stock at a price of $22.00 per share. Selling stockholders completed the sale of 12.4 million shares, including 1.6 million shares issued pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock by the selling stockholders in the IPO. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded in its consolidated statement of operations $26.1 million in expenses associated with its IPO. Expenses associated with the IPO include certain non‐recurring costs consisting of underwriting discounts and commissions applicable to the sale of shares by the selling stockholders, professional fees, and other expenses.
  • During the third quarter of 2020, the Company initiated a strategic realignment program to better align talent resources with the evolving needs of the business. The Company incurred realignment costs related to this program of $10.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, representing termination benefits for colleagues whose positions were eliminated. These realignment activities have been broadly implemented across the company with substantially all actions expected to be completed by the beginning of 2021.
  • For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company reported an effective tax rate of 62.5% and 22.6% respectively. The unusually high effective tax rate, especially in the third quarter, is primarily due to officer compensation limitation provisions resulting from the Company’s IPO and the non‑deductibility of expenses associated with the Company’s IPO, partially offset by increased tax benefits from stock‑based compensation.

2020 Financial Outlook

For the full year of 2020, the Company currently expects:

  • Total revenues in the range of $790 million to $800 million, representing growth of 7.2% to 8.6%;
  • Constant currency growth in ARR of 7.5% to 9.0%;
  • Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $250 million to $265 million, representing growth of 33% to 41%, including the impact of transitioning approximately $7.5 million of quarterly executive compensation from cash-based incentives to stock-based incentives for the fourth quarter of 2020;
  • Its effective tax rate for 2020 to be 23% to 25%. However, normalized for the unusual IPO-related activity in the third quarter of 2020, the effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 19% to 21%.

Bentley Systems is not providing a quantitative reconciliation of its Non-GAAP financial outlook to the corresponding GAAP information because the GAAP measures that it excludes from its Non-GAAP outlook are not available without unreasonable effort on a forward-looking basis due to their unpredictability, high variability, complexity and low visibility.

Forward-Looking Statements

The foregoing forward-looking statements reflect Bentley Systems’ expectations as of today's date. Given the number of risk factors, uncertainties and assumptions discussed below, actual results may differ materially.

Any statements made in this earnings release that are not statements of historical fact, including statements about our financial outlook and our beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements and should be evaluated as such. Forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations, business plans, and strategies. Forward-looking statements are based on Bentley Systems management’s beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, them. Because such statements are based on expectations as to future financial and operating results and are not statements of fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected. Factors which may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited, to macroeconomic conditions, pandemic consequences, and other factors described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our final prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 24, 2020, and in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, and the Company’s subsequent filings with the SEC. Copies of each filing may be obtained from the Company or the SEC. All forward-looking statements reflect our beliefs and assumptions only as of the date of this press release. We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances.

Definitions of Certain Key Business Metrics

Definitions of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this earnings release and reconciliations of such measures to their nearest GAAP equivalents are included below under “Use and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Certain non-GAAP measures included in our financial outlook are not being reconciled to the comparable GAAP financial measures because the GAAP measures are not accessible on a forward-looking basis. The Company is unable to reconcile these forward looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts because the Company is currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected for these periods not to impact the non-GAAP measures, but would impact GAAP measures. Such unavailable information, which could have a significant impact on the Company’s GAAP financial results, may include stock-based compensation charges, expenses associated with the IPO, depreciation and amortization of capitalized software costs and of acquired intangible assets, realignment expenses, and other items.

Last twelve-month recurring revenues are calculated as recurring revenues recognized over the preceding twelve-month period. We define recurring revenues as subscription 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.

Constant Currency Metrics

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. Our definition of constant currency may differ from other companies reporting similarly named measures, and these constant currency performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, our operating performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

  • Our last twelve-month 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 accounts with recurring revenues in the prior period (“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. The recurring revenues dollar‑based net retention rate is calculated using revenues recognized pursuant to Topic 605 for all periods in order to enhance comparability during our transition to Topic 606 as we do not have all information available to us necessary to present recurring revenues dollar‑based net retention rate pursuant to Topic 606 for any period prior to January 1, 2019.
  • Our last twelve-month 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. The account retention rate is calculated using revenues recognized pursuant to Topic 605 for all periods in order to enhance comparability during our transition to Topic 606 as we do not have all information available to us necessary to present account retention rate pursuant to Topic 606 for any period prior to January 1, 2019.
  • Our Constant currency ARR growth rate is the growth rate of our ARR, measured on a constant currency basis. Our ARR is defined as the sum of the annualized value of our portfolio of contracts that produce recurring revenue 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.

Use and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we have calculated adjusted cost of subscriptions and licenses, adjusted cost of services, adjusted research and development, adjusted selling and marketing, adjusted general and administrative, adjusted income from operations, Adjusted Net IncomeAdjusted Net Income per diluted shareAdjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin, each of which are non-GAAP financial measures. We have provided tabular reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to such measure’s most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for internal budgeting and forecasting purposes, and to evaluate financial performance and liquidity. Our non‑GAAP financial measures are presented as supplemental disclosure as we believe they provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results, prospects, and liquidity period-over-period without the impact of certain items that do not directly correlate to our operating performance and that may vary significantly from period to period for reasons unrelated to our operating performance, as well as to compare our financial results to those of other companies. Our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. In addition, other companies may not publish these or similar metrics. Thus, our non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or in isolation from, the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed with the SEC.

We calculate these non-GAAP financial measures as follows:

  • Adjusted cost of subscriptions and licenses is determined by adding back to GAAP cost of subscriptions and licenses, amortization of purchased intangibles and developed technologies, equity‑based compensation, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
  • Adjusted cost of services is determined by adding back to GAAP cost of services, equity‑based compensation, acquisition expenses, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
  • Adjusted research and development is determined by adding back to GAAP research and development, equity‑based compensation, acquisition expenses, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
  • Adjusted selling and marketing is determined by adding back to GAAP selling and marketing, equity‑based compensation, acquisition expenses, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
  • Adjusted general and administrative is determined by adding back to GAAP general and administrative, equity‑based compensation, acquisition expenses, and realignment expenses, for the respective periods;
  • Adjusted income from operations is determined by adding back to GAAP operating income, amortization of purchased intangibles and developed technologies, equity‑based compensation, acquisition expenses, realignment expenses, and expenses associated with IPO for the respective periods;
  • Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income adjusted for the following: amortization of purchased intangibles and developed technologies, equity‑based compensation, acquisition expenses, realignment expenses, expenses associated with IPO, other non‑operating income and expense (primarily foreign exchange gain (loss)), net, the tax effect of the above adjustments to net income, non‑recurring income tax expense and benefit, and loss from investment accounted for using the equity method, net of tax. The tax effect of adjustments to net income is based on the estimated marginal effective tax rates in the jurisdictions impacted by such adjustments;
  • Adjusted Net Income per diluted share is determined by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average diluted shares outstanding;
  • Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income adjusted for interest expense, net, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, equity‑based compensation, acquisition expenses, realignment expenses, expenses associated with IPO, other non‑operating income and expense (primarily foreign exchange gain (loss)), net, and loss from investment accounted for using the equity method, net of tax;
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin is determined by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by total revenues.

We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure, and to view these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with the related GAAP financial measures.
