Cadence Announces Q2 2012 Financial Results

Using Cadence’s non-GAAP measure, net income in the second quarter of 2012 was $53 million, or $0.19 per share on a diluted basis, as compared to net income of $32 million, or $0.12 per share on a diluted basis in the same period in 2011.



“The Cadence team executed well again in Q2,” said Lip-Bu Tan, president and chief executive officer. “Our 20-nanometer engagements have expanded, use of our Azuro technology acquired in 2011 increased, our emulation business significantly exceeded expectations, we had a strong quarter for both design and verification IP, and the acquisition of Sigrity has significantly enhanced our printed circuit board product line.”



“Cadence continues to deliver strong operating performance as measured by our key metrics of revenue growth, operating margin and cash flow,” added Geoff Ribar, senior vice president and chief financial officer.



The following statements are based on current expectations. These statements are forward-looking, and actual results may differ materially.
