Numerical information in this report is presented on a rounded basis using actual amounts. Minor differences in totals and percentage calculations may exist due to rounding.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q includes forward‑looking statements. All statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q other than statements of historical facts, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial condition, 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 Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q 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 Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q 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 Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q in greater detail in the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q. 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 Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q 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 and Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. The unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in U.S. dollars, and in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by 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 2025 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 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, 2025 consolidated balance sheet included herein is derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications of prior period amounts have been made to conform to the current period presentation.

Accounting Policies

Software Development Costs — Under its Accelerated Commercial Development Program (“ACDP”) (the Company’s structured approach to an in‑house business incubator function), the Company capitalizes certain development costs related to specified projects once technological feasibility is established. Total costs capitalized under the ACDP were $589 and $322 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Additionally, total ACDP related amortization was $88 and $755 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and is included in Cost of subscriptions and licenses in the consolidated statements of operations. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, $10,683 and $10,270 of ACDP capitalized costs were recorded in Other assets in the consolidated balance sheets, respectively.

Internal-Use Software Implementation Costs — The Company has entered into cloud-based software hosting arrangements related to new internal-use information technology systems, including a new enterprise-wide administrative and business management platforms for which it incurs implementation costs.

Capitalized internal-use software implementation costs are included in the consolidated balance sheets as follows:


	March 31, 2026		December 31, 2025
Prepaid and other current assets	$	5,675	$	4,556
Other assets	21,315		21,617
Total internal-use software implementation costs	$	26,990	$	26,173

Note 2: Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2025‑06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350‑40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (“ASU 2025‑06”), which amends certain aspects of the accounting for and disclosure of software costs under Subtopic 350-40, referred to as internal-use software. ASU 2025-06 is effective for the Company for the annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within that annual reporting period. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. The amendments in ASU 2025-06 may be adopted on a prospective basis to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date, on a retrospective basis to all periods presented, or on a modified prospective transition basis for in-process projects through a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2025‑06 on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024‑03, Income Statements–Reporting Comprehensive Income–Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024‑03”), which requires enhanced disclosure of income statement expense categories to improve transparency and provide financial statement users with more detailed information about the nature, amount, and timing of expenses impacting financial performance. ASU 2024-03 is effective for the Company for the annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 may be adopted either on a prospective basis to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date or on a retrospective basis to all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2024‑03, however, other than additional disclosure, the Company does not expect a change to the consolidated financial statements.

In March 2024, the SEC adopted the final rule under SEC Release No. 33‑11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate‑Related Disclosures for Investors. The final rule requires registrants to disclose certain climate‑related information in registration statements and annual reports. The final rule disclosure requirements would have begun phasing in prospectively for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2025. In April 2024, the SEC issued an order staying the final rule pending completion of a judicial review of certain petitions challenging their validity. In March 2025, the SEC voted to end its defense of the final rule. In September 2025, judicial review was suspended awaiting SEC clarity on its position. The Company is currently monitoring the status of the final rule pending the court’s ultimate decision and evaluating the impact of the final rule on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025‑05, Financial Instruments–Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets (“ASU 2025‑05”), which provides public entities with an optional practical expedient related to the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivables and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The Company adopted ASU 2025‑05 during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and elected the practical expedient, which permits the assumption that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. The adoption of ASU 2025‑05 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

Unbilled Accounts Receivable

Unbilled accounts receivable represent amounts that are unbilled due to agreed-upon contractual terms in which billing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, and are included in Accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, unbilled accounts receivable were $193,454 and $182,315, respectively.

Contract Balances

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s contract assets relate to performance obligations completed in advance of the right to invoice and are included in Prepaid and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Contract assets were not material as of March 31, 2026 or December 31, 2025.

Deferred revenues consist of billings made or payments received in advance of revenue recognition from subscriptions and services. The primary changes in deferred revenues are due to the Company’s performance under the contracts and new billings made or payments received in advance of revenue recognition from subscriptions and services. The satisfaction of performance obligations typically lags behind payments received under revenue from contracts with customers.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, $119,539 of revenues that were included in the December 31, 2025 deferred revenues balance were recognized. There were additional deferrals of $110,063 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, which were primarily related to new billings.

DCP participants’ holdings in phantom investment funds are classified as liabilities in either Accruals and other current liabilities or Deferred compensation plan liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets as they will be settled in cash upon eventual distribution. The 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.

Deferred compensation plan income was $1,074 and $1,246 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

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.

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 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 financial instruments as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

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 the 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 March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the estimated fair value of the 2027 Notes was $549,413 and $543,059, respectively. The estimated fair value of the 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:

Note 18: Commitments and Contingencies

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.

Note 19: Segment and Geographic Information

The Company operates and manages its business in a single reportable segment, the development and marketing of computer software and related services. The Company defines its chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to be its Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis. The Company’s reported measures of profit or loss for segment reporting purposes are Net income and Adjusted operating income less operating stock‑based compensation expense (“AOI less Operating SBC”).The CODM is regularly provided Net income and AOI less Operating SBC to understand the Company’s financial and operating results across accounting periods and for comparison of the Company’s results to those of other companies. The CODM regularly reviews AOI less Operating SBC for internal budgeting and forecasting purposes, to evaluate operating performance, and to make decisions on allocation of resources. The CODM does not use segment asset information to evaluate operating performance or allocate resources.

The presentation of Net income is included in the consolidated statements of operations. AOI less Operating SBC is a non‑GAAP financial measure and is defined as operating income adjusted for the following: amortization of purchased intangibles, expense (income) relating to deferred compensation plan liabilities, acquisition expenses (inclusive of cash‑ and equity‑settled retention incentives provided to key employees of acquired companies), and realignment expenses (income), for the respective periods.

During the first quarter of 2026, the Company changed its primary performance measure to AOI less Operating SBC from Adjusted operating income less stock-based compensation expense (“AOI less SBC”), as management believes AOI less Operating SBC better captures the Company’s core business operating results. The nature of the change to AOI less Operating SBC reflects the inclusion of equity‑settled retention incentives provided to key employees of acquired companies within the adjustment for acquisition expenses, whereas such expenses were not previously included in the AOI less SBC acquisition expenses adjustment. Prior period amounts have been revised to conform to the current period presentation using the updated AOI less Operating SBC definition.

AOI less Operating SBC	$	140,923	$	128,308

Further explanation of certain of the Company’s adjustments in arriving at AOI less Operating SBC are as follows:

(1)Acquisition expenses. The Company incurs expenses for professional services rendered in connection with business combinations, which are included in our GAAP presentation of general and administrative expense. Also included in the Company’s acquisition expenses are cash- and equity‑settled retention incentives provided to key employees of the acquired companies.

“Headcount‑related” costs are considered the Company’s significant expense category and primarily include salaries, benefits, bonuses, stock‑based compensation expense, employment taxes, travel, training, and realignment and optimization of the Company’s colleagues, and third‑party personnel expenses and related overhead. The CODM is regularly provided headcount‑related costs to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for internal budgeting and forecasting purposes, to evaluate financial performance, and to align colleague resources and evaluate compensation to support the Company’s operational efficiency and maximize long‑term growth. Headcount‑related costs of $228,342 and $199,609 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, are included in Cost of subscriptions and licenses, Cost of services, Research and development, Selling and marketing, and General and administrative in the consolidated statements of operations.

Under the Company’s Net income measure of profit or loss for segment reporting purposes, other segment items were $100,490 and $79,595 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. These other segment items primarily include cloud‑related costs incurred for servicing the Company’s accounts using cloud provisioned offerings and the Company’s license administration platform, channel partner compensation for providing sales coverage to users, marketing costs, acquisition costs, depreciation expense, and amortization expense recorded in Cost of subscriptions and licenses, Cost of services, Research and development, Selling and marketing, and General and administrative in the consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, other segment items include Deferred compensation plan expense (income), Amortization of purchased intangibles, and non‑operating expense (income) amounts presented in the consolidated statements of operations.

Under the Company’s AOI less Operating SBC measure of profit or loss for segment reporting purposes, other segment items were $58,578 and $45,529 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. These other segment items primarily include cloud‑related costs incurred for servicing the Company’s accounts using cloud provisioned offerings and the Company’s license administration platform, channel partner compensation for providing sales coverage to users, marketing costs, and depreciation expense recorded in Cost of subscriptions and licenses, Cost of services, Research and development, Selling and marketing, and General and administrative in the consolidated statements of operations. Within the reconciliation of AOI less Operating SBC, cash- and equity‑settled retention incentives provided to key employees of acquired companies included as a component of acquisition expenses totaling $3,662 and $2,904 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, are excluded from the calculation of headcount‑related costs.

Note 21: Net Income Per Share Attributable to Bentley Systems Stockholders

To compute the numerator of basic net income per share attributable to Bentley Systems stockholders, undistributed net income attributable to Bentley Systems allocated to participating securities (described further below) using the required two‑class method, is subtracted from net income attributable to Bentley Systems. The denominator of basic net income per share attributable to Bentley Systems stockholders is 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.

The Company may issue performance-based RSUs that meet the definition of participating securities, as the holders are entitled to non-forfeitable dividend rights upon the declaration of dividends on the Company’s common stock. As of March 31, 2026, no participating securities were outstanding and as of March 31, 2025, 250,614 participating securities were outstanding.

To compute the numerator of diluted net income per share attributable to Bentley Systems stockholders, interest expense, net of tax, attributable to the assumed conversion of the convertible senior notes using the if‑converted method is added back to basic net income attributable to Bentley Systems. To compute the denominator of diluted net income per share attributable to Bentley Systems stockholders, 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 using the treasury stock method, and for the dilutive effect of the assumed conversion of the convertible senior notes using the if‑converted method.

Table of Contents

Except with respect to voting and conversion, the rights of the holders of the Company’s Class A and 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 attributable to Bentley Systems stockholders would not differ under the two‑class method.

The details of basic and diluted net income per share attributable to Bentley Systems stockholders are as follows:

Diluted	$	0.30	$	0.28

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, 748,022 and 240,922 RSUs, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share attributable to Bentley Systems stockholders as including them would have an anti‑dilutive effect.

The Company repaid the 2026 Notes at maturity on January 15, 2026, and no shares of the Company’s Class B common stock were issued upon settlement. Subsequent to repayment, the 2026 Notes no longer represent potential common shares and, as a result, approximately 10 million shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted average shares.

Results of Operations:

Our results of operations have been, and in the future will be, affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Other than the natural hedge attributable to matching revenues and expenses in the same currencies, we do not currently hedge foreign currency exposure.

We identify the effects of foreign currency on our operations and present constant currency growth rates and fluctuations because we believe exchange rates are an important factor in understanding period‑over‑period comparisons and enhance the understanding of our results and evaluation of our performance. Refer to the “Non‑GAAP Financial Measures” section for additional information, including our definition and our use of constant currency.

(1)Constant currency is a non-GAAP financial measure. Refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section for additional information, including our definition and our use of constant currency, and for a reconciliation of constant currency growth rates.

The increase in total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily driven by an increase in subscriptions revenues, and to a lesser extent, an increase in services revenues, partially offset by a decrease in perpetual licenses revenues. Our business performance includes the impact from programmatic acquisitions, which generally are immaterial, individually and in the aggregate.

Subscriptions. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, subscriptions revenues increased $50,166 ($41,734 on a constant currency basis) primarily driven by expansion from accounts with revenues in the same period in the prior year (“existing accounts”), and growth of 3% attributable to new accounts, most notably small- and medium-sized accounts. Increases in subscriptions revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were led by Bentley Open Applications and Seequent applications, and to a lesser extent, Bentley Infrastructure Cloud.

Perpetual licenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, perpetual licenses revenues decreased $1,735 ($1,946 on a constant currency basis).

Services. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, services revenues increased $5,208 ($4,496 on a constant currency basis) primarily due to strength in Maximo-related work within our digital integrator.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, revenues from EMEA increased $19,236 ($12,787 on a constant currency basis) primarily due to expansion of our subscriptions revenues from existing accounts, and to a lesser extent, increases in our subscriptions revenues from new accounts, and an increase in services revenues.

APAC. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, revenues from APAC increased $7,744 ($6,174 on a constant currency basis) primarily due to expansion of our subscriptions revenues from existing accounts in India and Australia, as well as increases in our subscriptions revenues from new accounts, partially offset by a decline in perpetual licenses revenues.

Research and development. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, on a constant currency basis, research and development expenses increased primarily due to an increase in headcount‑related costs of $6,436, mainly due to increases in headcount, and annual and other compensation costs, and to a lesser extent, higher acquisition‑related retention incentives.

Selling and marketing. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, on a constant currency basis, selling and marketing expenses increased primarily due to an increase in headcount‑related costs of $6,184, mainly due to increases in annual and other compensation costs, and an increase in promotional costs of $2,428.

General and administrative. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, on a constant currency basis, general and administrative expenses increased primarily due to an increase in headcount‑related costs of $7,135, mainly due to increases in headcount, and annual and other compensation costs, and an increase in third-party personnel costs. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, general and administrative expenses further increased due to lower capitalizable costs associated with our internal-use software implementation as compared to the same period in the prior year.

Starting in 2026, we expect general and administrative expenses to include amortization of internal-use software implementation costs, which represents amortization of deferred costs primarily related to the implementation of our new enterprise-wide administrative and business management platforms which are planned to complete going live in 2026.

Deferred compensation plan. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, deferred compensation plan income was attributable to the marked to market impact on deferred compensation plan liability balances period over period.

Amortization of purchased intangibles. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, amortization of purchased intangibles was flat compared to the same period in the prior year.

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.

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 currency 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 51% and 50% as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, with our E365 subscription offering representing 46% and 45% of total ARR as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Constant currency ARR growth rate is the growth rate of ARR measured on a constant currency basis. In reporting period‑over‑period ARR growth rates in constant currency, we calculate constant currency growth rates by translating current and prior period ARR on a transactional basis to our reporting currency using current year budget exchange rates. We believe that ARR growth is an important metric indicating the scale and growth of our business.

Table of Contents

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 March 31, 2026 compared to the last twelve‑months of the comparative twelve‑month period increased by $168,849. 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. For the twelve months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, 93% and 92%, 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 foreign 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.

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 93% and 92% of our total revenues for the twelve months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, this metric helps explain our revenue performance as primarily growth from 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.

Table of Contents

During the first quarter of 2026, we changed our primary performance measure to AOI less Operating SBC from AOI less SBC, as management believes AOI less Operating SBC better captures the Company’s core business operating results. The nature of the change to AOI less Operating SBC reflects the inclusion of equity‑settled retention incentives provided to key employees of acquired companies within the adjustment for acquisition expenses, whereas such expenses were not previously included in the AOI less SBC acquisition expenses adjustment. Prior period amounts have been revised to conform to the current period presentation using the updated AOI less Operating SBC definition.

Adjusted Operating Income Less Operating Stock-Based Compensation Expense (“AOI less Operating SBC”)

AOI less Operating 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.

AOI less Operating SBC is defined as operating income adjusted for the following: amortization of purchased intangibles, expense (income) relating to deferred compensation plan liabilities, acquisition expenses (inclusive of cash‑ and equity‑settled retention incentives provided to key employees of acquired companies), and realignment expenses (income), for the respective periods.

AOI less Operating SBC is our primary performance measure, which excludes certain expenses and charges, including cash‑ and equity‑settled retention incentives provided to key employees of acquired companies, as we believe these may not be indicative of our core business operating results. We intentionally include operating stock‑based compensation expense (non‑cash stock‑based compensation expense less equity‑settled retention incentives provided to key employees of acquired companies) 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 Operating Income (“AOI”)

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 (inclusive of cash‑ and equity‑settled retention incentives provided to key employees of acquired companies), realignment expenses (income), and operating stock‑based compensation expense (non‑cash stock‑based compensation expense less equity‑settled retention incentives provided to key employees of acquired companies), for the respective periods.

Operating stock-based compensation expense (4)		17,972		15,217
Adjusted operating income		$	158,895	$	143,525

Further explanation of certain of our adjustments in arriving at AOI less Operating 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 operations. 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 GAAP presentation of general and administrative expense. Also included in our acquisition expenses are cash‑ and equity‑settled retention incentives provided to key employees 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.

(4)Operating stock‑based compensation expense. We define “operating” stock‑based compensation expense as non‑cash stock‑based compensation expense less equity‑settled retention incentives provided to key employees of acquired companies.

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. A significant amount of our operations is conducted in foreign 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, except for ARR as discussed above in “Key Business Metrics” section, we calculate the effects of foreign currency fluctuations and constant currency information by translating current and prior period results on a transactional basis to our reporting currency using prior period average foreign currency exchange rates in which the transactions occurred.

Cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries	101,182		84,185
Total cash and cash equivalents	$	105,159	$	123,278

Our primary source of operating cash is from the sale of our subscriptions, perpetual licenses, and services. Our primary use of cash is payment of our operating costs, which consist mainly 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.

We believe that cash generated from operations, together with existing cash and cash equivalent balances, and external borrowings including available liquidity under the Credit Facility, will be sufficient to meet our domestic and international working capital and capital expenditure requirements. We regularly review our capital structure and consider a variety of potential financing alternatives and planning strategies to ensure that we have the proper liquidity available in the locations in which it is needed and to fund our operations and growth investments with cash that has not been permanently reinvested outside the U.S. 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, funding of our purchase commitments, 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 additional debt financing, including convertible debt, would result in additional debt service obligations. Such debt instruments also could introduce new or modified covenants that might restrict our operations and/or our ability to pay dividends, consummate acquisitions, or otherwise pursue our business strategies. We cannot provide assurance that we could obtain additional financing on favorable terms or at all.

Investing activities	$	(5,551)	$	(3,044)
Financing activities	$	(204,441)	$	(200,808)

Operating Activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in the prior year, net cash provided by operating activities was lower by $26,007 due to a decrease in net cash flows from the change in operating assets and liabilities of $38,392, partially offset by a net increase in non‑cash adjustments of $8,374, and an increase in net income of $4,011. The decrease in net cash flows from the change in operating assets and liabilities period over period was primarily due to lower accounts payable, timing of collections on our receivables, and lower period over period Cloud Services Subscription deposits.

Table of Contents

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was higher by $2,507 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in the prior year, due to higher purchases of property and equipment and investment in capitalized software.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was higher by $3,633 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in the prior year. Net borrowings under the Credit Facility were higher by $678,727 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in the prior year. We utilized a portion of these borrowings under the Credit Facility and available cash on hand to repay the $677,830 outstanding principal balance of the 2026 Notes upon maturity in January 2026. Further, payments for shares acquired, including shares repurchased under the Repurchase Program, were higher by $14,797 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in the prior year. Additionally, under the Repurchase Program, we paid $9,797 in cash to repurchase $10,000 aggregate principal amount of outstanding 2026 Notes during the first quarter of 2025.

Total debt	$	1,115,269	$	1,248,912

The 2026 Notes matured on January 15, 2026. Upon maturity, we repaid $678,254, which consisted of the remaining outstanding principal balance and accrued interest on the 2026 Notes using borrowings under the Credit Facility and available cash on hand.

As of March 31, 2026, we had $756,439 available under the Credit Facility, and we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility and the 2027 Notes. Any failure to comply with such covenants under the Credit Facility would prevent us from being able to borrow additional funds under the Credit Facility, and, as with any failure to comply with such covenants under the 2027 Notes, could constitute a default that may cause all amounts outstanding to become due and immediately payable in full.

On April 23, 2026, we entered into a First Amendment, which amends the Credit Facility to provide for a new $550,000 Term Loan. As a result, the total borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility increased to $1,850,000. We used the Term Loan borrowings to repay portions of revolving indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Facility.

Stock Repurchases

BSY Stock Repurchase Program

Our Board of Directors approved the Repurchase Program authorizing us to repurchase up to $500,000 of our Class B common stock and/or outstanding convertible senior notes through December 31, 2028. We may use available working capital, cash provided by operating activities, and/or external borrowings including available liquidity under our Credit Facility to make repurchases.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased 1,037,848 shares for $40,021 under the Repurchase Program. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we repurchased 673,898 shares for $30,014, and $10,000 aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 2026 Notes for $9,797 under the Repurchase Program.

Table of Contents

The timing, as well as the number and value of shares and/or outstanding convertible senior notes repurchased under the Repurchase Program, will be determined at our discretion and will depend on a variety of factors, including our assessment of the intrinsic value of our shares, the market price of our Class B common stock and outstanding convertible senior notes, general market and economic conditions, available liquidity, compliance with our debt and other agreements, and applicable legal requirements.

Withholding Taxes on Certain Equity Awards

We have the right to require that certain equity awardees receive gross or net quantities of shares of our Class B common stock, including distributions from the DCP and share issuances under the Bonus Plan. In the case of a gross issuance or distribution, an awardee is required to reimburse promptly to us the cash required for his or her tax withholding amounts. Conversely, under a net issuance or distribution, shares are withheld in consideration of remitting withholding taxes on behalf of an equity awardee, thereby requiring us to remit cash for the tax withholdings. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we allowed impacted awardees the option to receive net quantities of shares of our Class B common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we exercised our right to require that impacted equity awardees receive gross quantities 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.

Dividend Payments

The declaration and payment of dividends is within the discretion of our Board of Directors. We paid quarterly dividends of $0.07 per share of common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. While we intend to continue paying quarterly dividends, any future determination will be subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be dependent on a number of factors, including our results of operations, capital requirements, restrictions under Delaware law, and overall financial condition, as well as any other factors our Board of Directors considers relevant. In addition, the terms of the agreement governing the Credit Facility limit the amount of dividends we can pay.

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 March 31, 2026, 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 March 31, 2026 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We currently believe that we do not have any material litigation pending against us.
