AUTODESK INC

AUTODESK INC

Autodesk, Inc. (ADSK) is a leader in design and make software used across architecture, engineering, construction (AEC), product design and manufacturing. Over the past decade it has moved from perpetual licences to a subscription-based, cloud-delivered model, increasing recurring revenue and customer stickiness. Core products include AutoCAD, Revit, Fusion 360 and the Autodesk Construction Cloud; growth drivers are digital transformation in construction and manufacturing, cloud collaboration and new AI-enabled design tools. With a market capitalisation around $66.15 billion, Autodesk is a large-cap software company offering attractive margins but exposed to cyclical capital spending and macro volatility. Key risks include competitive pressure, execution on cloud and AI initiatives, integration of acquisitions and foreign-exchange effects.
