The Eyes on the Road project provides 1,000 free high- resolution dash cameras to Hawaii residents to install in their vehicles, to improve roadway conditions and keep the roads safe. The cameras record video automatically as residents drive normally each day. Bentley’s Blyncsy solution collects high-resolution dash camera imagery from state roads across Hawaii to help Hawaii DOT identify road hazards more quickly, including guardrail damage and vegetation encroachment.

All rights reserved. 30 Key takeaways ⁃ With AI continuing to make strides in the infrastructure market, it is important it remains secure ⁃ Users always retain full control over their data, including when and how it’s used for AI training ⁃ Bentley is making the push to align all of their AI practices with the NIST framework Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the way infrastructure is designed, built, and operated—and software from Bentley Systems is at the forefront of this change. Our applications help engineers and organizations unlock new levels of productivity, optimize decisions, and tap into the full value of their data. With these opportunities, however, comes a critical responsibility: ensuring that our AI is built on trust, transparency, and respect for our users’ data. For engineers, data is not just information; it’s intellectual property and a strategic asset. --- Bentley has adopted robust controls to support the training and development of AI models. Among those controls are two categories of AI models that we designed to respect user preferences and maintain our commitment to data stewardship: Bentley AI Models: We developed these models by using data that has been purchased and/or licensed for training purposes. Licensed data can include data that users and accounts have agreed to contribute for the purpose of developing AI models that benefit all Bentley users. Fit for Account Models: Bentley AI Models can be fine-tuned by users within their own instances. Data specific to each account is utilized solely for the benefit of that account and is not incorporated into broader model or product enhancements. https://blog.bentley.com/insights/bentleys-commitment-to-data-stewardship-in-the-age-of-ai/ Bentley’s commitment to data stewardship in the age of AI October 14, 2025 Patrick Noctor, Bentley global data protection officer

© 2026 Bentley Systems, Incorporated. All rights reserved. 45 KPI and non-GAAP definitions This presentation includes certain KPIs and non-GAAP financial measures, which are defined herein. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in our Form 8-K (Quarterly Earnings Release) announcing our quarterly financial results, which can be found on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and on our website at www.bentley.com. 1. Constant currency. In reporting period-over-period results, except for ARR as discussed further below, we calculate the effects of foreign currency fluctuations and constant currency information by translating current and prior period results on a transactional basis to our reporting currency using prior period average foreign currency exchange rates in which the transactions occurred. 2. Recurring revenues. We define recurring revenues as subscriptions revenues that recur monthly, quarterly, or annually with specific or automatic renewal clauses and professional services revenues in which the underlying contract is based on a fixed fee and contains auto matic annual renewal provisions. 3. LTM Recurring revenues. Our last twelve-months (“LTM”) recurring revenues are calculated as recurring revenues recognized over the preceding twelve-month period. 4. Account retention rate. Our account retention rate for any given twelve-month period is calculated using the average currency exchange rates for the prior period, as follows: the prior period recurring revenues from all accounts with recurring revenues in the current and prior period, divided by total recurring revenues from all accounts during the prior period. 2019 calculated using ASC 605, and 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2 024, and 2025 calculated using ASC 606. 5. LTM Recurring revenues dollar-based net retention rate. Our LTM recurring revenues dollar-based net retention rate is calculated, using the average exchange rates for the prior period, as follows: the recurring revenues for the current period, including any growth or reductions from existing accounts, but excluding recurring revenues from any new accounts added during the current period, divided by the tot al recurring revenues from all accounts during the prior period. A period is defined as any trailing twelve months. Related to our platform acquisitions, recurring revenues into new accounts will be captured as existing accounts starting with the second anniversary of the acquisition when such data conforms to the calculation methodology. This may cause variability in the comparison. 2019 calculated using ASC 605, and 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 calculated using ASC 606. 6. Annualized Recurring Revenues (“ARR”). Our ARR is defined as the sum of the annualized value of our portfolio of contracts that produce recurring revenues as of the last day of the reporting period, and the annualized value of the last three months of recognized revenues for our contractually recurring consumption-based software subscriptions with consumption measurement durations of less than one year, calculated using the spot foreign exchange rates.

Our constant currency ARR growth rate is the growth rate of ARR measured on a constant currency basis. In reporting period-over-period ARR growth rates in constant currency, we calculate constant currency growth rates by translating current and prior period ARR on a transactional basis to our reporting currency using current year budget exchange rates. 8. ARR growth rate from business performance. Our constant currency ARR growth rate from business performance excludes the ARR onboarding of our platform acquisitions and includes the impact from the ARR onboarding of programmatic acquisitions, which generally ar e immaterial, individually and in the aggregate. 9. AOI less SBC. Our Adjusted operating income less stock-based compensation expense (“AOI less SBC”) is defined as operating income adjusted for the following: amortization of purchased intangibles, expense (income) relating to deferred compensation plan liabilities, acquisition expenses (inclusive of cash-settled retention incentives provided to key employees of acquired companies), and realignment expenses (income). 10. AOI less SBC margin. Our AOI less SBC margin is calculated by dividing AOI less SBC by total revenues. 11. Adjusted EBITDA. Our Adjusted EBITDA is defined as cash flows from operating activities adjusted for the following: cash interest, cash taxes, cash deferred compensation plan distributions, cash acquisition expenses, cash realignment costs, changes in operating assets and liabilities, and other cash items (such as those related to our interest rate swap). From time to time, we may exclude from Adjusted EBITDA the impact of certain cash receipts or payments that affect period-to-period comparability. 12. Organic ARR. Organic ARR is defined as reported ARR less ARR onboarded from programmatic acquisitions. 13. Free cash flow (“FCF”). FCF is defined as cash flows from operating activities (“OCF”) less purchases of property and equipment and investment in capitalized software. 14. AOI. Adjusted operating income (“AOI”) is defined as operating income adjusted for the following: amortization of purchased intangibles, expense (income) relating to deferred compensation plan liabilities, acquisition expenses (inclusive of cash-settled retention incentives provided to key employees of acquired companies), realignment expenses (income), and stock-based compensation expense, for the respective periods. 15. AOI less Operating SBC.
