In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, the company exceeded expectations with revenue growth of 12% to $1.64 billion and a non-GAAP operating margin of 37.1%. First-quarter fiscal 2026 revenues are expected to be in the range of $1.60-$1.61 billion with non-GAAP EPS of $2.14-$2.17.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Autodesk’s first-quarter fiscal 2026 revenues is $1.61 billion, reflecting a growth of 13.39% from the year-ago quarter.

Factors influencing Autodesk’s first-quarter fiscal 2026 results include the ongoing optimization of its go-to-market approach, macroeconomic uncertainty impacting customer spending decisions, and the company’s CRO transition. However, there is strong momentum in Autodesk’s Construction business and a focus on cloud, platform, and AI initiatives.

Despite promising margin expansion, investors should weigh this against moderating top-line growth. Autodesk plans to provide more details on future margin expansion at an analyst day in the third quarter.
