HUNTSVILLE, Ala., Nov. 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  Octave Intelligence plc (Nasdaq New York: OCTV and Nasdaq Stockholm: OCTV SDB) today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2026, ended September 30, 2026.

“Our third quarter results were in line with our expectations, and we remain on track to achieve our outlook for the full year. ARR grew 7% over the prior year to $1.17 billion, and SaaS revenue grew 18%, as we continue our focused shift toward recurring revenue. Product innovation and go-to-market improvements continued to gain traction this quarter, and we’re carrying that momentum into the fourth quarter,” said CEO Mattias Stenberg. 

“Additionally, our Board of Directors recently approved a $200 million share repurchase program, a decision that reflects its confidence in our company strategy, medium-term financial targets, and ability to grow free cash flow.”

Recent Business Highlights

  • In November, Octave announced the acquisition of Cerebre, a U.S.-based software company that transforms fragmented engineering schematics, plant data and engineering knowledge into a connected plant model. Combining Octave’s engineering record and Cerebre’s plant model will strengthen industrial AI use cases and has high-growth potential in brownfield facilities where plant data remains largely disconnected. 
  • In November, Octave announced the launch of Attune Facilities, a cloud-based facilities management solution for organizations managing multiple sites. Octave Attune Facilities includes AI tools to help facilities teams operate more efficiently across complex, multi-site environments.
  • In October, Octave released a new version of Alto, the company’s geospatial solution that powers 2D / 3D / 4D visualization, analytics, data fusion, digital twins and real-time operations. The latest release brings live drone and camera video directly onto 2D maps and 3D terrain, so operators not only see what a camera sees but can also access all the critical geospatial information attached to that camera’s view.
  • In October, Octave was the only company named a Leader in both the ARC Advisory Group’s MarketMap for Enterprise Asset Management and the MarketMap for Digital Worker Technologies for Manufacturing. ARC also classified Octave as a Transformation Pioneer in Enterprise Asset Management (EAM).
  • In September, Octave released a new research report on industrial workforce trends. The report surveyed more than 750 industrial leaders and found that widespread retirements and workforce shortages continue to present challenges to fill key roles and capture legacy expertise, all while AI is reshaping what the future workforce will look like, and the skills needed to succeed.

Share Repurchase

Octave today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a share repurchase program covering purchases of its Octave Class B Ordinary Shares, which are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, and Swedish Depository Receipts for its Octave Class B Ordinary Shares (“Octave SDRs”), which are listed on Nasdaq Stockholm (the “Program”).

The principal terms of the Program are:

  • The purpose of the Program is to offset dilution resulting from equity-based compensation and provide flexibility for additional repurchases as part of Octave’s capital-allocation strategy.
  • Purchases may be made from and including November 13, 2026, and continue through the end of 2029, unless the Program is completed or terminated earlier in accordance with applicable law.
  • Octave may acquire up to 10,750,000 Octave Class B Ordinary Share equivalents, consisting of Octave Class B Ordinary Shares purchased directly and/or Octave SDRs, with each SDR counting as one Octave Class B Ordinary Share equivalent, for aggregate consideration of up to $200,000,000. Purchases in both markets together may not exceed either aggregate limit.
  • Octave Class B Ordinary Shares may be acquired in open-market or privately negotiated transactions or by other means as permitted by applicable securities laws. Octave SDRs may be acquired on Nasdaq Stockholm in accordance with Nasdaq Stockholm’s Rule Book for Issuers on the Main Market and with observance of its price limitations set out therein. All purchases will be made in cash.

The timing, amount and allocation of purchases between the two markets will depend on market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other considerations. The Program does not require Octave to acquire the full authorized amount. Any suspension, modification or termination may be undertaken in Octave’s discretion, subject to applicable law.

As of the date hereof, Octave holds zero Class A Ordinary Shares and zero Octave Class B Ordinary Shares as treasury shares and holds zero Octave SDRs. Octave has 11,025,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and 257,412,788 Octave Class B Ordinary Shares issued, of which a portion are represented by Octave SDRs.

Assumptions underlying our guidance include continued customer retention consistent with historical experience, successful execution of cross-selling and upselling initiatives, ongoing SaaS adoption (including the migration of certain maintenance and license-based offerings), and no material adverse changes in macroeconomic conditions or end-market demand. See “Forward-Looking Statements” for additional assumptions.

DEFINITIONS OF KEY BUSINESS METRICS

We believe the presentation of key business metrics provides incremental 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. These metrics are based on management calculations derived from available operational data.

Recurring revenue includes monthly subscription licenses, SaaS-based subscriptions and maintenance subscriptions.

Annualized Recurring Revenue (“ARR”) is a key business metric we use to evaluate the scale and growth of our business as well as to assist in the evaluation of underlying trends in our business. ARR represents the annualized value of recurring revenue from our subscription licenses, SaaS-based subscriptions and maintenance subscriptions. It excludes revenue from perpetual software licenses, non-recurring services and other revenues. The Company calculates ARR as the sum of: (i) the annualized value of monthly recurring revenue recognized from SaaS-based subscriptions and maintenance subscriptions in the last month of the most recently completed quarter, plus (ii) the annualized value of recurring revenue recognized from subscription licenses in the most recently completed quarter.

EXPLANATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Below are definitions and reconciliations of certain non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes that, when considered together with reported amounts, these measures are useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in the analysis of ongoing operating trends. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with a more meaningful measure of company performance period-to-period, align the measures to how management evaluates performance internally, and make it easier for investors to compare our performance to peers. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as replacements for, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. The non-GAAP financial measures we use are as follows:

Adjusted Income from Operations—Income (Loss) from Operations

Adjusted income from operations is defined as Income (loss) from operations adjusted for amortization of acquired intangibles; amortization of developed technologies; stock-based compensation expense; impairment charges; acquisition costs and charges; restructuring charges; stand-up costs; and select other non-recurring items.

Adjusted Operating Margin—Operating Margin

Adjusted operating margin is defined as Adjusted income from operations divided by revenue.

Adjusted Net Income—Net Income (Loss)

Adjusted net income is defined as Net income (loss) adjusted for amortization of acquired intangibles; amortization of developed technologies; stock-based compensation expense; impairment charges; acquisition costs and charges; restructuring charges; stand-up costs; select other non-recurring items; and a corresponding adjustment to income tax expense for the impact of these adjustments.

Adjusted Earnings per share—Earnings per share

Adjusted earnings per share is defined as Adjusted net income divided by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, presented on a diluted basis.

Free Cash Flow—Cash Flow from Operations

Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operations net of capital expenditures, including purchases of property and equipment and capitalization of software development costs. These expenditures consist primarily of facility improvements, office equipment, computer equipment, and software development costs. We believe that free cash flow, in conjunction with cash from operations, is a useful measure of liquidity since capital expenditures are a necessary component of ongoing operations. Free cash flow is not a measure of cash available for discretionary expenditures.

Free Cash Flow Margin—Cash Flow from Operations Margin

Free cash flow margin is defined as free cash flow divided by revenue.

Description of Adjustments

Amortization of acquired intangibles and amortization of developed technologies are non-cash expenses that are impacted by the timing and magnitude of our acquisitions and additions to developed technologies. We believe the assessment of our operations excluding these costs is relevant to our assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of other companies in our industry.

Stock-based compensation expense is a non-cash expense relating to equity-based awards issued to executive officers, employees and outside directors, including restricted share units and performance share units. We believe the assessment of our operations excluding these costs is relevant to our assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of other companies in our industry.

Impairment charges are non-cash expenses related to long-lived assets for which it was determined the carrying value of such assets was partially or fully unrecoverable. We believe the assessment of our operations excluding these costs is relevant to our assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of other companies in our industry.

Acquisition costs and charges are direct costs of potential and completed acquisitions and expenses related to acquisition integration activities, including transaction fees, due diligence costs, severance and professional fees. Subsequent adjustments to our initial estimated amount of contingent consideration associated with specific acquisitions are also included within acquisition costs and charges. The occurrence and amount of these costs and charges varies depending on the timing and size of acquisitions and subsequent adjustments to our initial estimated amount of contingent consideration. We believe the assessment of our operations excluding these costs and charges is relevant to our assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of other companies in our industry.

Restructuring charges include excess facility restructuring costs; impairment and accretion expenses related to the lease assets of exited facilities; sublease income from previously impaired facilities; severance charges resulting from employee reduction actions; and third-party professional consulting fees related to modifications of our business strategy. These charges vary in size based on restructuring plans and duration. We believe the assessment of our operations excluding these costs is relevant to our assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of other companies in our industry.

Stand-up costs include expenses associated with the Distribution and stand-up of functions required to operate as a standalone public entity. These costs primarily relate to system implementation expenses, legal and consulting costs, development of our brand and other matters. We believe the assessment of our operations excluding these costs is relevant to our assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of other companies in our industry.

Other non-recurring items include selected gains, costs and charges that do not naturally conform to one of the adjustments above, including the gain on the sale of our corporate headquarters, losses on divestitures of non-core businesses and certain litigation matters net of expected insurance recoveries. We believe the assessment of our operations excluding these gains, costs and charges is relevant to our assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of other companies in our industry.

Income tax adjustments include the tax impact of the items excluded from Adjusted net income, which is calculated by applying the statutory tax rates in the respective jurisdictions to each of the pre-tax transaction accounting adjustments.

We use these non-GAAP financial measures, and we believe that they assist our investors, to make period-to-period comparisons of our operational performance because they provide a view of our operating results and cash flows without items that are not, in our view, indicative of our core operating results. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when used in conjunction with the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure, help illustrate underlying trends in our business, and we use the measures to establish budgets and operational goals (communicated internally and externally) for managing our business and evaluating our performance. We believe that providing non-GAAP financial measures also affords investors a view of our operating results and cash flows that may be more easily compared to the results of other companies in our industry that use similar financial measures to supplement their U.S. GAAP results.

The items excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures often have a material impact on our financial results, certain of those items are non-recurring, and other such items often recur. Accordingly, the non-GAAP financial measures included herein should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, the comparable measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The following tables reconcile each of these non-GAAP financial measures to its most closely comparable U.S. GAAP measure on our financial statements.

Guidance for adjusted financial measures excludes amortization of acquired intangibles, amortization of developed technologies, stock-based compensation expense, impairment charges, acquisition costs and charges, restructuring charges, stand-up costs, other non-recurring items and related tax impacts.

Octave has not provided forecasts of the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures because certain items required to calculate those U.S. GAAP measures cannot be reasonably predicted without unreasonable effort. With respect to Adjusted operating margin, the Company is unable to reasonably predict future impairment charges, restructuring charges, acquisition costs and charges, stand-up costs, and other non-recurring items without unreasonable effort. With respect to Free cash flow margin, the Company is unable to reasonably predict future operating cash flows without unreasonable effort. With respect to organic constant currency growth, the Company is unable to reasonably predict the future foreign exchange rates and the revenue contribution of acquisitions and divestitures without unreasonable effort. Accordingly, reconciliations of the forecasts of Adjusted operating margin,  Free cash flow margin, and organic constant currency growth to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures have not been provided. The excluded items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Constant Currency

Constant currency is a non-GAAP financial measure that presents our revenue 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 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 our underlying performance.

In reporting period-over-period results, we calculate the effects of foreign currency fluctuations and constant currency information by translating current and prior period results on a functional currency basis to our reporting currency using the prior period average foreign currency exchange rates from which the transaction occurred.

Reconciliation of revenue to revenue in constant currency for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026:

Organic Constant Currency Growth—Revenue Growth

Organic Constant Currency growth presents period-over-period revenue growth excluding both the estimated effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations (as described under Constant Currency above) and the impact of revenue attributable to businesses acquired or divested during the current or comparative period. We believe Organic Constant Currency growth is useful to investors because it presents revenue growth from our existing operations on a comparable basis period-over-period.
