Section 8 – Other Events
 
Item 8.01.    Other Events
 
On November 20, 2018, PTC Inc. announced that it had acquired Frustum Inc., a Delaware corporation based in Colorado, for approximately $70,000,000 in cash, net Frustum’s debt, on November 19, 2018. PTC drew on its credit facility to fund the acquisition.  Frustum is engaged in next-generation computer-aided design, including generative design – an approach that leverages artificial intelligence to generate design options.
 
The acquisition is not expected to add material revenue in fiscal 2019 or to be dilutive to the financial guidance PTC provided on October 24, 2018.
 
PTC will hold an informational webcast to discuss the acquisition on Tuesday, November 20, 2018, at 11:00 a.m. EST.
