Cadence Reports First Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CDNS) today announced results for the first quarter of 2022.

Cadence reported first quarter 2022 revenue of $902 million, compared to revenue of $736 million for the same period in 2021. On a GAAP basis, Cadence achieved operating margin of 35 percent and recognized net income of $235 million, or $0.85 per share on a diluted basis, in the first quarter of 2022, compared to operating margin of 28 percent and net income of $187 million, or $0.67 per share on a diluted basis, for the same period in 2021.

Using the non-GAAP measures defined below, operating margin for the first quarter of 2022 was 44 percent and net income was $324 million, or $1.17 per share on a diluted basis, compared to operating margin of 38 percent and net income of $231 million, or $0.83 per share on a diluted basis, for the same period in 2021.

“Q1 was a strong start of the year for Cadence, as we delivered outstanding results driven by broad-based strength across our diverse product portfolio,” said Anirudh Devgan, president and chief executive officer. “Our Intelligent System Design strategy aligns well with the generational secular trends that are fueling robust design activity, and our innovative solutions are accelerating growth in both our core and our new systems businesses across a rapidly expanding customer base.”

“Q1 results reflect the success we have with our customers and partners, as well as the solid execution from the Cadence team. We benefited from strong demand for our technologies,” said John Wall, senior vice president and chief financial officer. “We exceeded all key operating metrics for the quarter and are raising our full year guidance.”

CFO Commentary

Commentary on the first quarter 2022 financial results by John Wall, senior vice president and chief financial officer, is available at www.cadence.com/cadence/investor_relations.

Business Outlook

For the second quarter of 2022, the company expects total revenue in the range of $825 million to $845 million. Second quarter GAAP operating margin is expected to be in the range of 29 percent to 30 percent and GAAP net income per diluted share is expected to be in the range of $0.59 to $0.63. Using the non-GAAP measures defined below, operating margin is expected to be in the range of 39 percent to 40 percent and net income per diluted share is expected to be in the range of $0.95 to $0.99.

For fiscal year 2022, the company expects total revenue in the range of $3.395 billion to $3.435 billion. On a GAAP basis, operating margin is expected to be in the range of 28.5 percent to 30 percent and GAAP net income per diluted share for 2022 is expected to be in the range of $2.51 to $2.59. Using the non-GAAP measures defined below, operating margin for 2022 is expected to be in the range of 38.5 percent to 40 percent and net income per diluted share for 2022 is expected to be in the range of $3.89 to $3.97.

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

A schedule showing reconciliations of the 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, is included in this 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 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 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:

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.

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 Cadence’s second quarter 2022 earnings release is published, which is currently scheduled for July 25, 2022.
