Seasonality and Backlog
We experience a slight seasonal pattern to our business. Overall, the third and fourth fiscal quarters are typically the strongest quarters of our fiscal year, whereas the first fiscal quarter is negatively affected by holidays and the second fiscal quarter may be affected by adverse winter weather conditions in some of our markets.
Certain of our end markets experience some seasonality. Our sales in the automotive market are dependent upon global automotive production, and seasonal declines in European production may negatively impact net sales in the fourth fiscal quarter. Also, our sales in the energy market typically increase in the third and fourth fiscal quarters as customer activity increases.
Customer orders typically fluctuate from quarter to quarter based upon business and market conditions. Backlog is not necessarily indicative of future net sales as unfilled orders may be cancelled prior to shipment of goods. Backlog by reportable segment was as follows:
We expect that the majority of our backlog at fiscal year end 2019 will be filled during fiscal 2020.

Warranty Obligations
We offer warranties on certain products and record a liability for the estimated future costs associated with warranty claims at the time revenue is recognized. The warranty liability is based upon historical experience and our estimate of the level of future costs. While we engage in product quality programs and processes, our warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure.
We continuously monitor product returns for warranty and maintain a reserve for the related expenses based upon our historical experience and any specifically identified field failures. As we sell new products to our customers, we must exercise considerable judgment in estimating the expected failure rates. This estimating process is based on historical experience of similar products, as well as various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.
We provide for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized. Warranty costs are reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Income as a Cost of revenues. A reconciliation of the changes in our warranty liability is as follows (in thousands):

16. Restructuring and other exit costs, net
During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018, the Board of Directors approved a world-wide restructuring plan (“Fiscal 2018 Plan”) to support the Company's strategic priorities of completing the subscription transition, digitizing the Company, and re-imagining manufacturing, construction, and production. Through the restructuring, Autodesk seeks to reduce its investments in areas not aligned with its strategic priorities, including in areas related to research and development and go-to-market activities. At the same time, Autodesk plans to further invest in strategic priority areas related to digital infrastructure, customer success, and construction. By re-balancing resources to better align with the Company’s strategic priorities, Autodesk is positioning itself to meet its long-term goals. This world-wide restructuring plan included a reduction in force of approximately 11% of the Company’s workforce, or 1,027 employees, and the consolidation of certain leased facilities. By January 31, 2019, the personnel and facilities related actions included in this restructuring plan were substantially complete.
During Fiscal 2019, restructuring charges under the Fiscal 2018 Plan included $39.2 million in employee termination benefits and $3.2 million in lease termination and other exit costs.
The following tables set forth the restructuring charges and other facility exit costs, net during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2019 and 2018:
(1) Adjustments primarily relate to the impact of foreign exchange rate changes, settlement of lease contracts, and certain write offs related to fixed assets.
(2) The current portions of the reserve are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets under “Other accrued liabilities.” There was no non-current portion as of January 31, 2019.

Fair Value Disclosures
Under the fair value standards fair value is based on the exit price and defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement should reflect all the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. A fair value hierarchy is established in the authoritative guidance outlined in three levels ranking from Level 1 to level 3 with Level 1 being the highest priority.
Level 1: observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly
Level 3: unobservable inputs (e.g., a reporting entity’s or other entity’s own data)
The Company had no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring (except our pension plan assets, see Note 15) or
non-recurring basis as of September 30, 2019 or September 30, 2018.
To estimate fair value of the financial instruments below quoted market prices are used when available and classified within Level 1. If this data is not available, we use observable market based inputs to estimate fair value, which are classified within Level 2. If the preceding information is unavailable, we use internally generated data to estimate fair value which is classified within Level 3.
Cash and cash equivalents
Carrying amount approximated fair value
Accounts and long term receivable with original maturity over one year
Fair value was estimated by discounting future cash flows based on the current rate with similar terms.
Note payable
Fair value was estimated based on quoted market prices.
Fair value of accounts receivable with an original maturity of one year or less and accounts payable was not materially different from their carrying values at September 30, 2019, and 2018.

CASH FLOW ANALYSIS
(1) Fiscal 2018 was restated to comply with IFRS 15 and to reflect a change in accounting policy as well as to reclassify results from Cogeco Peer 1 as discontinued operations. For further details, please consult the "Accounting policies" and "Discontinued operations" sections. (2) For further details on the Corporation's cash flow attributable to discontinued operations, please consult the "Discontinued operations" section.
OPERATING ACTIVITIES Fiscal 2019 fourth-quarter cash flow from operating activities increased by 19.3% compared to the same period of the prior year mainly from: • higher adjusted EBITDA; • the decreases in income taxes paid and financial expense paid; and • the increase in changes in non-cash operating activities primarily due to changes in working capital.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES Fiscal 2019 fourth-quarter investing activities decreased by 25.8% compared to the same period of the prior year mainly due to the acquisition of spectrum licenses in the Canadian broadband services segment in the comparable period of the prior year combined with a decrease in acquisitions of property, plant and equipment.
