SYNOPSYS POSTS FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR FIRST QUARTER 2000
MOUNTAIN VIEW, CALIFORNIA, FEBRUARY 17, 2000 - Synopsys, Inc., today reported
its first quarter results for the period that ended on January 31, 2000.
Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2000 was $216.9 million, compared with
revenue for the same period last year of $180.2 million, an increase of 20%. Net
income for the first quarter of fiscal 2000 was $45.1 million, or $0.61 per
share, compared with net income of $40.4 million, or $0.56 per share, for the
first quarter of fiscal 1999. This represents net income and earnings per share
growth of 12% and 9%, respectively. Earnings before goodwill (EBG), which
represents earnings per share on a fully diluted basis excluding amortization of
intangible assets and in-process research and development, was $50.7 million, or
$0.68 per share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2000, compared with $40.4
million, or $0.56 per share, for the first quarter of fiscal 1999, an increase
of 25% and 21% respectively.
"Synopsys' results in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 were really strong on all
fronts," noted Dr. Aart de Geus, Chairman and CEO of Synopsys. "We are also
gaining market share in all key product categories, a clear sign of our superior
technology and recognized customer value. Our new physical synthesis business is
performing especially well. We're actively involved with over 50 customer
engagements and have already helped several customers achieve successful silicon
with these physical synthesis products," added de Geus.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2000, the Company completed the acquisition
of Leda, S.A., based in Grenoble, France, a privately held provider of RTL
coding style checkers. The acquisition will provide the Company with tools for
enabling design reuse and facilitating system-on-a-chip (SOC) integration. The
business combination with Leda was accounted for as a purchase.
