We had a solid start to the year with good progress on our business model transition, said Carl Bass, Autodesk president and CEO. We added 95,000 subscriptions during the quarter, with approximately half coming from new subscription types. Over the course of the next two years we expect to transition the vast majority of our offerings to subscription, which provides our customers with greater flexibility and a better user experience.

We were pleased with the first quarter results and remain confident in our business model transition, said Scott Herren, Autodesk Chief Financial Officer. As we scan the economic environment, weve observed unevenness, particularly in key markets. Considering the current economic environment, coupled with persistent foreign currency headwinds, we've adjusted our business outlook for the fiscal year as we look to build on the early successes of our model transition.
Business Outlook
The following are forward-looking statements based on current expectations and assumptions, and involve risks and uncertainties some of which are set forth below. Autodesks business outlook for the second quarter and full year fiscal 2016 assumes, among other things, a continuation of the current economic environment and foreign exchange currency rate environment. A reconciliation between the GAAP and non-GAAP estimates for fiscal 2016 is provided below or in the tables following this press release.
