(PRNewswire) —  Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDNS) today announced results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2015.

Cadence Logo.

Cadence reported first quarter 2015 revenue of $411 million, compared to revenue of $379 million reported for the same period in 2014. On a GAAP basis, Cadence recognized net income of $36 million, or $0.12 per share on a diluted basis, in the first quarter of 2015, compared to net income of $33 million, or $0.11 per share on a diluted basis, for the same period in 2014.

Using the non-GAAP measure defined below, net income in the first quarter of 2015 was $72 million, or $0.23 per share on a diluted basis, as compared to net income of $59 million, or $0.20 per share on a diluted basis, for the same period in 2014.

"Cadence continued its excellent record of innovation and execution in the first quarter," said Lip-Bu Tan, president and chief executive officer. "We achieved strong financial results, expanded relationships with key customers and ecosystem partners, launched Innovus, our next-generation digital implementation system, to enthusiastic customer support, and Cadence was recognized in FORTUNE Magazine's 2015 list of '100 Best Companies to Work For.'"

"Successful execution of a sound strategy drives superior results," added Geoff Ribar, senior vice president and chief financial officer. "With the progress we are making on our strategy and confidence in Cadence's prospects, we are pleased to announce that we are replacing our existing stock repurchase program with an expanded program to repurchase $450 million over the next two years."

Cadence expects to repurchase approximately $56.25 million of its common stock per quarter, beginning with the second quarter of 2015. The actual timing and amount of repurchases will be based on corporate and regulatory requirements and other factors. The stock repurchase program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time.

Business Outlook

For the second quarter of 2015, the company expects total revenue in the range of $410 million to $420 million. Second quarter GAAP net income per diluted share is expected to be in the range of $0.14 to $0.16. Net income per diluted share using the non-GAAP measure defined below is expected to be in the range of $0.23 to $0.25.

For 2015, the company expects total revenue in the range of $1.680 billion to $1.720 billion. On a GAAP basis, net income per diluted share for 2015 is expected to be in the range of $0.60 to $0.70. Using the non-GAAP measure defined below, net income per diluted share for 2015 is expected to be in the range of $0.96 to $1.06.

A schedule showing a reconciliation of the business outlook from GAAP net income and diluted net income per share to non-GAAP net income and diluted net income per share is included in this release.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation

To supplement Cadence's financial results presented on a generally accepted accounting principles, or 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, and is calculated by taking GAAP net income and excluding, as applicable, amortization of intangible assets and debt discount related to our convertible notes, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and integration-related costs including changes in fair value of contingent consideration and retention expenses for employees added from our 2013 and 2014 acquisitions, special charges (comprised of costs related to a voluntary retirement program and executive severance costs), 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. For 2015, Cadence is applying a non-GAAP income tax rate of 23 percent, down from 26 percent used in fiscal 2014, based on forecasted increases in foreign earnings that are expected to lower Cadence's long-term non-GAAP effective income tax rate.

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 useful supplemental information to Cadence's management and investors regarding the performance of the company's business operations, facilitates comparisons to the company's historical operating results and enhances investors' ability to review Cadence's business from the same perspective as Cadence's management. Cadence's management also uses non-GAAP net income internally for forecasting and budgeting. 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 and potential 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 encouraged to look at the GAAP results as the best measure of financial performance.

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 June 19, 2015, Cadence will observe a Quiet Period during which the business outlook as provided in this press release and the company's 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, the business outlook in these documents should be considered to be historical, speaking as of prior to the Quiet Period only and not subject to any update by the company.  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 second quarter 2015 earnings release is published, which is currently scheduled for July 27, 2015.
