fiscal 1998 pro forma amounts exclude the PCB/Systems business of Viewlogic
Systems (divested on October 2, 1998) as well as unusual charges.

share for the second quarter of fiscal 1998.

During the second quarter of fiscal 1999, Synopsys acquired Gambit Design
Automation, Inc., Smartech OY and a Verilog code coverage verification tool,
resulting in a combined charge to operations of $16.3 million as a write-off of
in-process research and development. 

Revenue for the first six months of fiscal 1999 was $370.4 million, compared
with pro forma revenue for the same period last year of $316.0 million, an
increase of 17%. Pro 

                                       1

forma net income, excluding unusual charges, was $84.7 million or $1.16 per
share, compared with pro forma net income of $52.1 million, or $0.76 per share
for the same period last year. This represents pro forma net income and earnings
per share growth of 63% and 53%, respectively. The first half-fiscal 1998 pro
forma amounts exclude the PCB/Systems business of Viewlogic Systems as well as
unusual charges.

Revenue for the first six months of fiscal 1999 was $370.4 million, compared
with $344.3 million for the same period last year without adjusting for the
Viewlogic divestiture, an increase of 8%. Actual net income for the first six
months of fiscal 1999, including unusual charges, was $67.0 million or $0.92 per
share, compared with $18.6 million or $0.27 per share for the same period last
year.

"I'm pleased to report that Synopsys turned in record revenue and accelerating
earnings growth for the second quarter," remarked Synopsys Chairman and CEO Dr.
Aart de Geus. "While substantially growing our business this quarter, Synopsys
also unveiled its roadmap for next generation physical design tools, along with
our flagship Chip Architect product. This quarter marked the turning point for
Synopsys in our aggressive strategy to introduce superior physical tools for
complex SoC design."

During the course of the second quarter, the company completed several
acquisitions. Synopsys acquired Gambit Design Automation, a privately held
provider of place and route tools and back-end services located in San Jose,
California. Synopsys had been an investor in Gambit since 1997. The acquisition
will provide the company with IC layout tools to be used by the Synopsys
Professional Services Group in delivering complete front to back end design flow
solutions to its customers. The company also acquired Smartech OY of Finland, a
privately held design services firm with specific expertise in the wireless
market. Both acquisitions further strengthen Synopsys' professional services
strategy of working alongside its customer partners in quickly getting their
products to market. Additionally, Synopsys acquired the rights to "CoverMeter",
a Verilog code coverage tool, from Advanced Technology Center of Massachusetts.
The product has been integrated into Synopsys' verification portfolio and is
being offered for sale to customers.
