 Autodesk had income tax expense of $101 million, relative to pre-tax income of $593 million for the three months ended July 31, 2026, and income tax expense of $143 million, relative to pre-tax income of $456 million for the three months ended July 31, 2025.

Autodesk had income tax expense of $209 million, relative to pre-tax income of $1.19 billion for the six months ended July 31, 2026, and income tax expense of $225 million, relative to pre-tax income of $690 million for the six months ended July 31, 2025.

Our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended July 31, 2026, differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to tax on net controlled foreign corporation tested income (“NCTI”) and withholding tax, reduced by varying tax rates on foreign earnings, tax-deductible stock-based compensation, benefits arising from the foreign-derived deduction-eligible income (“FDDEI”) regime, and tax credits.
