EDA Consortium MSS Newsletter for Q4 2014

EDAC Web Site Update

Each quarter, the EDA Consortium publishes the Market Statistics Service (MSS) report containing detailed revenue data for the EDA industry. The report compiles data submitted confidentially by both public and private EDA and IP companies into tables and charts listing the data by both EDA category and geographic region. This newsletter highlights the results for the fourth quarter of 2014. Additional details are available in the press release, or by joining EDAC and receiving the full EDA Consortium MSS report.

Overall, fourth quarter 2014 EDA revenues increased 11.9% compared to the same period in 2013. Total revenue for Q4 was a record $2104.0 million. Figures 1 and 2, below, summarize the revenue growth for Q4 2014 compared to Q4 2013, detailed by category (figure 1) and geographic region (figure 2). The MSS report contains many additional sub-categories, allowing subscribers to perform a more detailed analysis of revenues affecting their business.

Data is reported confidentially to an independent accounting firm, which allows both public and private companies to report revenue data by detailed category. Individual company data is not reported, and steps are taken to further protect individual data for categories with a small number of reporting companies. Contributing data is free, and contributors will receive the quarterly MSS executive summary report. The full report is available to EDAC member companies, and contains substantially more detailed information for EDA revenues by category and region, providing the information subscribers need to analyze trends in EDA.
