Frequently Asked Questions

The primary driver of revenue growth was a significant increase in product revenue, which rose by 32% year-over-year. This was supported by increased business levels and the recognition of revenue from bookings made in prior periods.

The acquisition of Sigrity, Inc. on July 2, 2012, is expected to enhance Cadence's product offerings, particularly in signal and power integrity analysis. The company is integrating Sigrity's technology into its Allegro product offering and recorded the acquisition-related assets and liabilities.

The 2015 Convertible Notes were reclassified as a current liability because the company's closing stock price met certain early conversion conditions (exceeding $9.81 for at least 20 of the last 30 trading days). This means that noteholders have the option to convert their notes into cash within a specified period.

Profitability significantly improved. Income from operations more than doubled to $59.4 million, and net income increased from $28.1 million in the same quarter last year to $58.6 million this quarter. This was driven by revenue growth and effective cost management.
