Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to Autodesk management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon this evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to meet the objective for which they were designed and operated at the reasonable assurance level.

Our disclosure controls and procedures include components of our internal control over financial reporting. Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Autodesk have been detected.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended July 31, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

**ITEM 1.**LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

For information regarding certain current legal proceedings, refer to “Legal Proceedings” in Note 14, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference. In addition to the legal proceedings referenced in Note 14, we are involved in the following additional legal proceedings.

On June 7, 2024, a purported stockholder derivative complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, naming our directors at the time of the complaint and our Chief Strategy Officer as defendants and our company as a nominal defendant. The complaint generally alleges violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and breach of fiduciary duties, aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, and waste of corporate assets, based on similar underlying allegations contained in the purported federal securities class action complaint described in Note 14 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (“Note 14”). A second purported stockholder derivative complaint naming the same defendants was filed in the Northern District of California on June 25, 2024. The complaint in that case generally alleges violations of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5, Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, breach of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste of corporate assets, and contribution, also based on similar underlying allegations contained in the purported federal securities class action described in Note 14. On October 29, 2024 the Court consolidated and stayed the two stockholder derivative actions. A third purported stockholder derivative complaint naming the same defendants was filed in the District of Delaware on February 14, 2025. That complaint generally alleged violations of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5, Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, breach of fiduciary duties, misappropriation of information, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets, also based on similar underlying allegations contained in the purported federal securities class action described in Note 14. The plaintiff in the District of Delaware action filed a notice of voluntary dismissal of the action without prejudice on April 4, 2025, which the Court entered on April 7, 2025.
