Raising 2024 Revenue Outlook

SAN JOSE, Calif. — April 22, 2024 — Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CDNS) today announced results for the first quarter of 2024.

First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

•Revenue of $1.009 billion, compared to revenue of $1.022 billion in Q1 2023

•GAAP operating margin of 25%, compared to 32% in Q1 2023

•Non-GAAP operating margin of 38%, compared to 42% in Q1 2023

•GAAP diluted net income per share of $0.91, compared to $0.89 in Q1 2023

•Non-GAAP diluted net income per share of $1.17, compared to $1.29 in Q1 2023

•Quarter-end backlog was $6.0 billion and current remaining performance obligations ("cRPO"), contract revenue expected to be recognized as revenue in the next 12 months, was $3.1 billion.

“Q1 was a strong start to the year for Cadence as we delivered solid Q1 results,” said Anirudh Devgan, president and chief executive officer. “I’m pleased with our record Q1 backlog that reflects our broad-based strength and product leadership. We’re thrilled with the momentum of our Cadence.AI portfolio which is providing customers with the most comprehensive and impactful chip-to-systems design capabilities and are excited about the launch of our innovative third generation Dynamic Duo hardware platforms that further expands our leadership.”

“Our strong Q1 results reflect our continued technology leadership supporting our customers and partners, and solid execution from the Cadence team,” said John Wall, senior vice president and chief financial officer. “I am pleased that we delivered record Q1 bookings and achieved record Q1 backlog of approximately $6.0 billion.”

CFO Commentary

Commentary on the first quarter of 2024 financial results by John Wall, senior vice president and chief financial officer, is available at www.cadence.com/cadence/investor_relations.

Business Outlook

For fiscal year 2024, the company expects:

•Revenue in the range of $4.56 billion to $4.62 billion

•GAAP operating margin in the range of 31% to 32%

•Non-GAAP operating margin in the range of 42% to 43%

•GAAP diluted net income per share in the range of $4.04 to $4.14

•Non-GAAP diluted net income per share in the range of $5.88 to $5.98

For the second quarter of 2024, the company expects:

•Revenue in the range of $1.03 billion to $1.05 billion

•GAAP operating margin in the range of 26.5% to 27.5%

•Non-GAAP operating margin in the range of 38.5% to 39.5%

•GAAP diluted net income per share in the range of $0.73 to $0.77

•Non-GAAP diluted net income per share in the range of $1.20 to $1.24

Cadence's outlook does not include the impact of its pending acquisition of BETA CAE, the company's expectations for which are largely unchanged from announcement.

The company utilizes a long-term projected non-GAAP tax rate, which reflects currently available information, as well as other factors and assumptions. The non-GAAP tax rate is subject to change for a variety of reasons, including the rapidly evolving global tax environment, significant changes in the company’s geographic earnings mix, or other changes to the company’s strategy or business operations. The company expects to use the current

normalized non-GAAP tax rate through fiscal 2025 but will re-evaluate this rate periodically for significant items that may materially affect its projections.

Reconciliations of the financial highlights and business outlook from GAAP operating margin, GAAP net income and GAAP diluted net income per share to non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted net income per share, respectively, are included in this press release.

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 measures contained within this press release with their most directly comparable GAAP 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 management uses non-GAAP net income because it excludes items that are generally not directly related to the performance of Cadence’s core business operations and therefore provides supplemental information to Cadence 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 management, including forecasting and budgeting.

The following tables reconcile the specific items excluded from GAAP operating margin, GAAP net income and GAAP net income per diluted share in the calculation of non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share for the periods shown below:

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 GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures contained within this CFO Commentary 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. See our earnings press release issued today for further discussion of our non-GAAP financial measures, as well as the reconciliation provided in the Appendix to this CFO Commentary.

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.
