Insights

Cadence delivered an outstanding Q3 with $1.215 billion in revenue, marking a robust 19% YoY growth. The company's operational excellence is evident in its non-GAAP operating margin expansion to 45%, up from 41% last year. Key growth drivers include IP business (59% YoY growth), System Design & Analysis (47% YoY growth) and Functional Verification (22% YoY growth).

The $5.6 billion backlog and $2.9 billion in current remaining performance obligations demonstrate strong business momentum. The raised FY2024 guidance, with non-GAAP EPS midpoint at $5.90, reflects management's confidence. China revenue recovery to 13% of total revenue and accelerating AI-driven solutions adoption indicate healthy market diversification and technological leadership.

The tripling of Cadence.AI revenue highlights the company's successful integration of generative AI into its core EDA tools. This transformation is particularly significant as it addresses the increasing complexity in chip design while improving productivity. The strong adoption of multi-physics portfolio and verification solutions by AI, hyperscale and automotive companies indicates Cadence's growing influence in high-growth technology segments.

The major IP deal for AI product development demonstrates Cadence's strategic positioning in the AI infrastructure market. The company's comprehensive portfolio spanning hardware, IP and services makes it an essential partner for next-generation chip development, particularly in AI applications where design complexity and performance requirements are escalating rapidly.

CFO Commentary

Commentary on the third 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 $4.61 billion to $4.65 billion
  • GAAP operating margin in the range of 29% to 30%
  • Non-GAAP operating margin in the range of 42% to 43%
  • GAAP diluted net income per share in the range of $3.70 to $3.76
  • Non-GAAP diluted net income per share in the range of $5.87 to $5.93

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 results 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:
