 to our ability to realize the benefits from the Ansys Merger, see “Failure to realize the benefits expected from the Ansys Merger could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.”

Failure to realize the benefits expected from the Ansys Merger could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. 

The anticipated benefits we expect from the Ansys Merger are based on projections and assumptions about our combined business with Ansys, which may not materialize as expected or which may prove to be inaccurate. Our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected if we are unable to realize the anticipated benefits from the Ansys Merger on a timely basis, if at all, including, among other things, realizing the anticipated cost and revenue synergies from the Ansys Merger in the anticipated amounts or within the anticipated timeframes or cost expectations, if at all. Achieving the benefits of the Ansys Merger will depend, in part, on our ability to integrate the business and operations of Ansys successfully and efficiently with our business. The challenges involved in this integration, which may be complex and time-consuming, include, among others, the following:

•avoiding business disruptions, preserving customer and other important relationships of Ansys and attracting new business and operational relationships;

•coordinating and integrating independent research and development and engineering teams across technologies and product platforms to enhance product development while reducing costs;

•integrating financial forecasting and controls, procedures and reporting cycles;

•consolidating and integrating corporate, IT, cybersecurity, finance and administrative infrastructures;

•coordinating branding, sales and marketing efforts to effectively position the combined company’s capabilities and the direction of product development;

•integrating Ansys’ systems, operations and product lines;

•meeting obligations that we will have to counterparties of Ansys that arise as a result of the change in control of Ansys; and

•integrating employees and related HR systems and benefits, maintaining employee productivity and retaining key employees.

If we do not successfully manage these issues and the other challenges inherent in integrating an acquired business, and/or if the integration of the business and operations of Ansys cannot be undertaken on a timely basis due to delays in completing the Regulatory Divestitures as described above in the risk factor titled “We continue to be subject to certain divestiture commitments that, if not timely performed, could adversely affect our ability to realize the benefits of the Ansys Merger,” then we may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the Ansys Merger on our anticipated
