Cadence Reports Second Quarter 2017 Financial Results
SAN JOSE, Calif. — July 24, 2017 — Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDNS) today announced results for the second quarter 2017.
Cadence reported second quarter 2017 revenue of $479 million, compared to revenue of $453 million reported for the same period in 2016. On a GAAP basis, Cadence recognized net income of $69 million, or $0.25 per share on a diluted basis, in the second quarter of 2017, compared to net income of $49 million, or $0.17 per share on a diluted basis, for the same period in 2016.
Using the non-GAAP measure defined below, net income in the second quarter of 2017 was $94 million, or $0.34 per share on a diluted basis, as compared to net income of $86 million, or $0.29 per share on a diluted basis, for the same period in 2016.
“Customer adoption of our innovative product portfolio enabled Cadence's strong second quarter results, driven by robust software and IP growth,” said Lip-Bu Tan, president and chief executive officer.  
“Our excellent financial results for the second quarter were highlighted with revenue near the high end of our guidance range and operating margin, EPS and operating cash flow all exceeding expectations,” said Geoff Ribar, senior vice president and chief financial officer, and added, “We are increasing our outlook for the fiscal year and expect to repurchase shares in the third quarter under our existing authorization.”

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures contained within this press release with their most directly comparable GAAP financial results. Investors are also encouraged to look at the GAAP results as the best measure of financial performance.

To supplement Cadence’s financial results presented on a GAAP basis, Cadence management uses non-GAAP measures that it believes are helpful in understanding Cadence’s performance. One such measure is non-GAAP net income, which is a financial measure not calculated under GAAP. Non-GAAP net income is calculated by Cadence management by taking GAAP net income and excluding, as applicable, amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and integration-related costs including retention expenses, investment gains or losses, income or expenses related to Cadence’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan, restructuring and other significant items not directly related to Cadence’s core business operations, and the income tax effect of non-GAAP pre-tax adjustments.

Cadence’s management uses non-GAAP net income because it excludes items that are generally not directly related to the performance of the company’s core business operations and therefore provides supplemental information to Cadence’s management and investors regarding the performance of the business operations, facilitates comparisons to the historical operating results and allows the review of Cadence’s business from the same perspective as Cadence’s management, including forecasting and budgeting.
The following tables reconcile the specific items excluded from GAAP net income and GAAP net income per diluted share in the calculation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share for the periods shown below:

Cadence expects that its corporate representatives will meet privately during the quarter with investors, the media, investment analysts and others. At these meetings, Cadence may reiterate the business outlook published in this press release. At the same time, Cadence will keep this press release, including the business outlook, publicly available on its website.
Prior to the start of the Quiet Period (described below), the public may continue to rely on the business outlook contained herein as still being Cadence’s current expectations on matters covered unless Cadence publishes a notice stating otherwise.
Beginning September 15, 2017, Cadence will observe a Quiet Period during which the business outlook as provided in this press release and the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q no longer constitute the company’s current expectations.

During the Quiet Period, Cadence’s representatives will not comment on Cadence’s business outlook, financial results or expectations. The Quiet Period will extend until the day when Cadence’s third quarter 2017 earnings release is published, which is currently scheduled for Thursday, October 26, 2017.
