PART I

Item 1. Business

General

Mentor Graphics Corporation (Mentor Graphics or Company), an
Oregon corporation organized in 1981, is headquartered in
Wilsonville, Oregon. The Company's common stock is traded in the
NASDAQ National Market System under the symbol MENT.


Products and Services

The Company designs, manufactures, markets and supports electronic
design automation (EDA) software for the integrated circuit (IC)
and systems design markets. The Company provides a broad range of
EDA tools developed either by the Company or together with third
parties to support the entire electronic design process. The
Company's software products enable engineers and designers to
design, analyze, place and route, and test custom ICs, application
specific ICs (ASICs), printed circuit boards, multichip modules
and other electronic systems and subsystems. The Company^s Falcon
Framework software provides a common foundation for the Company's
EDA software products. Falcon Framework software also allows for
the integration of third party software tools developed by other
commercial EDA vendors and by customers for their own internal
use. The Company's products help customers reduce development
time while producing innovative hardware products of high quality.
In addition to software products, Mentor Graphics' Value Added
Services division also offers consulting, support and training
services to enhance customers' success in the design and
manufacture of hardware products.


Platforms

The Company's software runs on UNIX workstations in a broad range
of price and performance levels, including workstations
manufactured by Hewlett-Packard Company, Sun Microsystems, Inc.,
Digital Equipment Corporation, NEC Corporation and International
Business Machines Corporation. The above major computer
manufacturers have a substantial installed base of workstations,
and make frequent introductions of new products with significant
price/performance improvements.

The Company has written virtually all of its software in the high
level languages C++, C, Pascal, or Fortran to facilitate its
portability to other platforms in the future, should availability
of the Company's software on such platforms prove desirable.


Marketing and Sales

The Company's marketing strategy emphasizes customer support,
Value Added Services, a strong direct sales force and large
corporate account penetration in the semiconductor, aerospace,
computer, telecommunications and consumer electronics industries.
Customers use the Company's products in the design of such diverse
products as supercomputers, automotive electronics, missile
guidance systems, signal processors, personal computers, gallium
arsenide circuits, microprocessors and telecommunication switching
systems.

Mentor Graphics sells and licenses its products primarily through
its direct sales force in the United States, through the direct
sales forces of its wholly-owned subsidiaries in Asia and Europe
and through distributors. During 1993, the Company transitioned
from direct sales to distributorships in some Asian markets by
assisting former employees to set up distributorship businesses
for Company products. The Company is considering making similar
transitions to distributorships in other geographies. During the
years ended December 31, 1993 and 1992, sales outside of North
America accounted for 46 and 48 percent, respectively, of total
sales. Additional information relating to foreign and domestic
operations is contained in Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements on pages 34-35 of the 1993 Annual Report to
Shareholders and is incorporated by this reference. Fluctuating
exchange rates and other factors beyond the Company's control,
such as tariff and trade policies, domestic and foreign tax and
economic policies and the relative stability of international
economic and monetary conditions should continue to affect the
level and profitability of sales outside the United States.

The Company's OpenDoor program coordinates and supports the
integration of commercial EDA products and customers' internal
products into the Company's EDA environment. Under this program,
the Company enables OpenDoor participant companies to develop
interfaces from their products to the Company's products.
OpenDoor participants can select from a range of integration
technologies to achieve an optimal degree of integration for their
products. There are now approximately 115 OpenDoor participants.

No material portion of the Company's business is dependent on a
single customer. The Company has traditionally experienced some
seasonal fluctuations in receipt of orders, which are typically
stronger in the second and fourth quarters of the year. As is
typical of many other companies in the electronics industry, the
Company generally ships its products to customers within 10 to 90
days after receipt of an order, and a substantial portion of
quarterly shipments tend to be made in the last month of each
quarter. The Company believes that the dollar amount of its
backlog is not material to an understanding of the Company's
business.

The Company sells and licenses its products and some third-party
products pursuant to purchase orders and master purchase and
license agreements. The Company has corporate agreements
providing the general terms and conditions of sales and discounts
to certain of its customers. The Company schedules deliveries
only after receipt of purchase orders under these agreements.


Manufacturing Operations

The Company's manufacturing operations primarily consist of
reproduction of the Company's software and documentation. In
North America, manufacturing occurs at the Company's facility in
Wilsonville, Oregon. Software and documentation distribution
centers in The Netherlands, Japan and Singapore serve their
respective regions. The Company generally does not integrate
Company software with hardware from suppliers. The Company uses a
manufacturing resource planning system which integrates
purchasing, inventory control and accounting in all regions.


Product Development

The EDA market is competitive and characterized by rapid
technological change, which requires continuous high expenditures
for the enhancement of existing products and the development of
new products. The Company is committed to the creation of new
products and intends to continue to enhance its existing products.
During the years ended December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991, the
Company expensed approximately $77,598,000, $73,947,000 and
$79,539,000 respectively, and capitalized approximately
$3,609,000, $6,120,000, and $9,917,000, respectively, related to
product development. Substantially all of these costs were
related to the development of the Company's proprietary
application software.



Suppliers

The Company contracts with several suppliers who provide software
products which the Company integrates into its product line,
allowing the Company to both concentrate its development efforts
on its core product line and offer its customers a more complete
design solution.

The Company no longer integrates and resells computer hardware
with the Company's products. The Company believes that its
customers realize little value in purchasing hardware through the
Company. As a service to its customers in Europe and Japan, where
some customers prefer to purchase both hardware and software from
one source, the Company will continue to accept orders for
hardware which is shipped directly from the supplier to customers.

Customer Support and Professional Services

The Company has a worldwide organization to meet its customers'
needs for software support, training, consulting, custom IC design
and documentation. The Company offers support contracts providing
software updates and support. Most of the Company's customers are
covered by software support contracts. Some hardware support is
provided to customers under subcontract by third-party hardware
suppliers, although the Company will not be entering into any new
hardware support agreements with customers in 1994. The Company
provides technical support for its products through a direct
telephone support line and an electronic communications system.

Additional professional services are offered through the Company's
Value Added Services division which provides consulting and
training to help the Company's customers improve their design
processes and make the most efficient use of their EDA software
tools.

Competition

The EDA industry is competitive and has been characterized by
rapid technological advances in application software, operating
systems and hardware. The Company's principal competitors are
Cadence Design Systems Inc., Synopsys Inc., Viewlogic Systems,
Inc., COMPASS Design Automation, Inc., Zuken Incorporated, Racal
Redac, Ltd., Intergraph Corporation, and Seiko Corporation. The
Company believes that other companies may be developing EDA
systems.

Some of the Company's competitors and potential competitors may
have greater financial and marketing resources than Mentor
Graphics. However, the Company believes the main competitive
factors in the EDA industry are breadth and quality of application
software, product integration, ability to respond to technological
change, quality of a company's sales force, price, size of the
installed base, level of customer support and value added
services. The Company believes that it generally competes
favorably in these areas. The Company can give no assurance,
however, that it will have the financial resources, marketing,
distribution and service capability, depth of key personnel or
technological knowledge to compete successfully in the EDA market.


Employees

The Company and its subsidiaries employed approximately 2,100
persons full time as of December 31, 1993 compared with
approximately 2,200 persons at the end of 1992. The Company's
success will depend in part on its ability to attract and retain
employees who are in great demand. The Company continues to enjoy
good employee relations. No Company employees are represented by
a collective bargaining unit.


Patents and Licenses

The Company owns United States and Canadian patents covering the
technology underlying several of its software products. The
Company has also filed other patent applications on technology it
has developed and intends to file additional patent applications
in the future. While the Company believes the pending
applications relate to patentable devices, there can be no
assurance that any patent will be issued or that any patent can be
successfully defended. The Company believes that patents are less
significant to the success of its business than technical
competence, management ability, marketing capability and customer
support.

The Company regards its application software as proprietary and
attempts to protect it with copyrights, trade secret laws, and
internal non-disclosure safeguards, as well as patents, when
appropriate, as noted above. The Company typically incorporates
restrictions on disclosure, usage and transferability into its
agreements with customers and other third parties.


Item 2. Properties

The Company's Wilsonville, Oregon facilities are located in six
owned buildings of approximately 570,000 total square feet located
on about 90 acres. All corporate functions, as well as a majority
of research and development and domestic activities, operate from
this site. In January 1993, the Company entered into a five-year
lease with a third party covering the Company's former
manufacturing and warehouse building on its Wilsonville site. The
building size is approximately 150,000 square feet.

The Company leases additional space in San Jose, California, and
in various locations throughout the United States and in foreign
countries, primarily for sales and customer service operations.
The Company believes that it will be able to renew or replace its
existing leases as they expire and that its current facilities
will be adequate through at least 1994.


Item 3. Legal Proceedings

There are no material legal proceedings pending against the
Company.


Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

No matters were submitted to a vote of the security holders of the
Company during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1993.
