Autodesk to cut ~1,000 jobs (7% workforce) as GTM transformation final phase; Q4 guidance raised above top end
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Restructuring plan eliminates ~1,000 roles (7% of workforce), primarily in customer-facing sales; pre-tax charges $135M-$160M, with $90M-$110M in Q4 FY2026.
- Q4 and full-year FY2026 billings, revenue, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP EPS, and free cash flow all expected above top end of prior guidance (Nov 25, 2025).
- Plan expected to be substantially complete by end of Q4 FY2027; savings reinvested in AI, platform, and industry cloud priorities.
- CEO states this is the final phase of multi-year GTM transformation; changes not driven by external environment or AI replacement.
