May 6 - PTC Inc PTC.O on Wednesday raised its full-year revenue forecast, citing continued demand from manufacturers using its software to digitize their design and production processes.

Shares of the Boston-based company rose nearly 4% in extended trading.

PTC has benefited as manufacturing and industrial clients continue to invest in digital transformation tools to improve efficiency, reduce costs and speed up time-to-market.

"Customer interest in AI is growing, and our discussions reinforce how AI is driving momentum in PTC's business," CEO Neil Barua said in a statement.

PTC provides software that helps companies design, manufacture, operate and service physical products. Its "digital thread" strategy aims to create a seamless flow of information from the initial design concept through to a product's real-world operation and maintenance.

PTC now expects annual revenue of $2.58 billion to $2.82 billion, up from its earlier forecast of $2.54 billion to $2.81 billion.

It projects revenue in the range of $580 million to $640 million for the third quarter, while analysts expect $623.2 million.

The company posted revenue of $774 million for the second quarter ended March 31, beating analysts' estimate of $715.4 million.

Adjusted earnings came in at $2.69 per share, also ahead of estimates of $2.11.
