Summary

Summary of the 10-Q filed August 14, 2001. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.

Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (CDNS) reported its financial results for the period ending June 30, 2001.

The company experienced a net loss of $28.9 million^a for the second quarter of 2001, a significant shift from the net income of $5.6 million reported in the same quarter of the previous year. This downturn was largely attributed to significant restructuring charges, asset impairments, and the general economic slowdown impacting the electronics industry. Despite the quarterly loss, total revenue increased by 16% year-over-year to $347.6 million, driven by a strong rebound in product revenue, which grew 35%.

This growth was primarily from license renewals and new sales of integrated circuit implementation, intellectual property creation, and printed circuit board-related products. However, services revenue saw a decline of 8%, mainly due to Tality Corporation's performance. The company also incurred substantial "unusual items," including restructuring charges of $32.7 million^b and a $25.8 million goodwill write-off related to the Diablo Research Company acquisition, significantly impacting profitability.

Financially, Cadence maintained a solid liquidity position with $141.1 million^c in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments at the end of the quarter. The company also has access to a $350 million credit facility, with no outstanding borrowings at the reporting date. The company is actively managing its financial resources through strategic initiatives including acquisitions and share repurchase programs, while navigating the challenging economic environment.
