Year Ended December 31, 2012 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2011 Revenue:
## Table 0 ##
The Company’s revenue increased 15.4% in 2012 as compared to 2011, including increases in all major revenue categories.
The Company's revenue included Apache operations for the full year in 2012 of $62.0 million as compared to five months in 2011 of $14.5 million.
The growth was partially influenced by benefits from the Company’s continued investment in its global sales and marketing organization.
Revenue from lease licenses increased 28.1% as compared to the prior year due to an increase in Apache-related lease license revenue and growth in sales of other lease licenses.
Annual maintenance contracts that were sold with new perpetual licenses, along with maintenance contracts sold with new perpetual licenses in previous years, contributed to maintenance revenue growth of 11.7%.
Perpetual license revenue, which is derived entirely from new sales during the period, increased 7.1% as compared to the prior year.
Esterel-related revenue for the period from the acquisition date (August 1, 2012) through December 31, 2012 was $3.3 million.
Service revenue increased 8.6% as compared to the prior year, primarily from increased revenue associated with engineering consulting services.
With respect to revenue, on average for the year ended December 31, 2012, the U. S.  Dollar was 3.7% stronger, when measured against the Company’s primary foreign currencies, than for the year ended December 31, 2011.
The net overall strengthening of the U. S.  Dollar resulted in decreased revenue and operating income during 2012, as compared to 2011, of $15.4 million and $7.4 million, respectively.
A substantial portion of the Company’s license and maintenance revenue is derived from annual lease and maintenance contracts.
These contracts are generally renewed on an annual basis and typically have a high rate of customer renewal.
In addition to the recurring revenue base associated with these contracts, a majority of customers purchasing new perpetual licenses also purchase related annual maintenance contracts.
As a result of the significant recurring revenue base, the Company’s license and maintenance revenue growth rate in any period does not necessarily correlate to the growth rate of new license and maintenance contracts sold during that period.
To the extent the rate of customer renewal for lease and maintenance contracts is high, incremental lease contracts, and maintenance contracts sold with new perpetual licenses, will result in license and maintenance revenue growth.
Conversely, if the rate of renewal for these contracts is adversely affected by economic or other factors, the Company’s license and maintenance growth will be adversely affected over the term that the revenue for those contracts would have otherwise been recognized.
The Company had a backlog of $55.2 million and $56.3 million of orders received but not invoiced as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
International and domestic revenues, as a percentage of total revenue, were 66.7% and 33.3%, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2012, and 68.8% and 31.2%, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2011.
The Company derived 26.0% and 26.4% of its total revenue through the indirect sales channel for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
In valuing deferred revenue on the Esterel and Apache balance sheets as of their respective acquisition dates, the Company applied the fair value provisions applicable to the accounting for business combinations resulting in lower amounts of revenue than Esterel and Apache would have recognized absent the acquisitions.
The impact on reported revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $9.6 million.
during the period and the fair market value of the Company’s stock price on the exercise dates.
Each of these items is subject to significant uncertainty.
Additionally, a significant portion of the tax benefits related to disqualified incentive stock options is accounted for as an increase to equity (additional paid-in capital) rather than as a reduction in income tax expense.
Although all such benefits continue to be realized through the Company’s tax filings, this accounting treatment has the effect of increasing tax expense and reducing net income.
For example, the Company realized a tax benefit of $7.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2012 related to disqualified dispositions of incentive stock options; however, only $1.7 million of such amount was recorded as a reduction in income tax expense.
Under the terms of the ANSYS, Inc.
Long-Term Incentive Plan, in the first quarter of 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company granted 100,000, 92,500 and 80,500 performance-based restricted stock units, respectively.
Vesting of the full award or a portion thereof is based on the Company’s performance as measured by total shareholder return relative to the median percentage appreciation of the NASDAQ Composite Index over a specified measurement period, subject to each participant’s continued employment with the Company through the conclusion of the measurement period.
The measurement period for the restricted stock units granted pursuant to the Long-Term Incentive Plan is a three-year period beginning January 1 of the year of the grant.
Each restricted stock unit relates to one share of the Company’s common stock.
The estimated grant-date value of each restricted stock unit granted in 2012, 2011 and 2010 was $33.16, $32.05 and $25.00, respectively.
The estimate of the grant-date value of the restricted stock units was made using a Monte Carlo simulation model.
The determination of the fair value of the awards was affected by the grant date and a number of variables, each of which has been identified in the chart below.
Share-based compensation expense based on the fair value of the award is being recorded from the grant date through the conclusion of the three-year measurement period.
On December 31, 2012, employees earned 76,500 restricted stock units, which will be issued in the first quarter of 2013.
## Table 1 ##
In addition, the Company grants deferred stock units to non-affiliate Independent Directors, which are rights to receive shares of common stock upon termination of service as a Director.
The deferred stock units are issued in arrears and vest immediately.
As of December 31, 2012, 95,227 deferred stock units have been earned with the underlying shares remaining unissued until the service termination of the respective Director owners.
Of this amount, 28,523 units were earned during the year ended December 31, 2012.
In accordance with the Apache merger agreement, the Company granted performance-based restricted stock units to key members of Apache management and employees, with a maximum of $13.0 million to be earned annually over a three-fiscalyear period beginning January 1, 2012.
Vesting of the full award or a portion thereof is determined discretely for each of the three fiscal years based on the achievement of certain revenue and operating income targets by the Apache subsidiary, and the recipient's continued employment through the measurement period.
The value of each restricted stock unit on the August 1, 2011 grant date was $50.30, the closing price of ANSYS stock as of that date.
On December 31, 2012, employees earned 76,658 restricted stock units, which will be issued in the first quarter of 2013.
If factors change and the Company employs different assumptions in the application of share-based payment accounting guidance in future periods, the compensation expense that the Company will record may differ significantly from what the Company has recorded in the current period.
Therefore, it is important for investors to be aware of the high degree of subjectivity involved when using option pricing models to estimate share-based compensation.
Option pricing models were developed for use in estimating the value of traded options that have no vesting or hedging restrictions, are fully transferable and do not cause dilution.
Because the Company’s share-based payments have characteristics significantly different from those of freely-traded options and because changes in the input assumptions can materially affect the Company’s estimates of fair values, in the Company’s opinion, existing valuation models may not provide reliable measures of the fair values of the Company’s share-based compensation.
Consequently, there is a risk that the Company’s estimates of the fair values of the Company’s share-based compensation awards on the grant dates may bear little resemblance to the actual values realized upon the exercise, expiration, early termination or forfeiture of those share-based payments in the future.
Certain share-based payments, such as employee stock options, may expire worthless or otherwise result in zero intrinsic value as compared to the fair values originally estimated on the grant date and reported in the Company’s financial statements.
Alternatively, value may be realized from these instruments that is significantly in excess of the fair values originally estimated on the grant date and
