| Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
| BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared by Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (“Cadence”) without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, Cadence believes that the disclosures contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q comply with the requirements of Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements are meant to be, and should be, read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in Cadence’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the "Annual Report"). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect all adjustments (which include only normal, recurring adjustments and those items discussed in these notes) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to state fairly the results of operations, cash flows and financial position for the periods and dates presented. The results for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year or other periods. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Management has evaluated subsequent events through the issuance date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Fiscal Year End Cadence’s fiscal year end is December 31, and its fiscal quarters end on March 31, June 30, and September 30. Use of Estimates Preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Risks and Uncertainties Because Cadence operates globally, its business is subject to the effects of economic downturns or recessions in the regions in which it does business, volatility in foreign currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar, inflation, changing interest rates, expanded trade control laws and regulations, imposition of new or higher tariffs and geopolitical conflicts. Cadence has been impacted by the continued expansion of trade control laws and regulations, including certain export control restrictions concerning advanced node IC production in China, the inclusion of additional Chinese technology companies on the Bureau of Industry and Security (“BIS”) “Entity List” and regulations governing the sale of certain technologies. On May 23, 2025, BIS informed Cadence that a license was required for the export, re-export or in-country transfer of EDA software and technology classified under Export Control Classification Numbers (ECCNs) 3D991 and 3E991 on the Commerce Control List (“EDA Software and Technology”), when a party to the transaction is located in China or is a Chinese “military end user” wherever located. On July 2, 2025, BIS informed Cadence that the license requirements set forth in the May 23, 2025 letter from BIS were rescinded effective immediately. During this period, Cadence's revenue in China decreased primarily due to reduced deliveries of software offerings to the customers in China due to these license requirements. Cadence has since restored access to EDA Software and Technology for affected customers in accordance with these updated U.S. export regulations. The impact of these expanded trade control laws and regulations on Cadence’s condensed consolidated financial statements was not material Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Segment Reporting In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced annual and interim disclosures for significant segment expenses. Cadence adopted this ASU retrospectively during fiscal 2024 for its Annual Report. For interim disclosures required by this ASU, see Note 15 in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted Income Taxes In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which requires disclosure of disaggregated income taxes paid, prescribes standard categories for the components of the effective tax rate reconciliation, and modifies other income tax-related disclosures. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and may be applied on a retrospective or prospective basis. Cadence plans to adopt this standard in connection with its annual report for fiscal 2025 and is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Income Statement - Expense Disaggregation Disclosure In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures,” which requires additional disclosure of certain costs and expenses in the notes to the financial statements. The updated standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. Cadence is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

| Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| REVENUE | REVENUE Cadence groups its solutions in three product categories: Core EDA, Semiconductor IP, and System Design and Analysis. The Core EDA category includes software, hardware, and services used to design and verify a wide variety of semiconductors. The Semiconductor IP category includes silicon subsystems, software, and services that are used in semiconductor design. The System Design and Analysis category includes software and services used to design and verify a wide variety of physical electronic systems. These categories are tightly integrated to provide complete design solutions for customers. The following table shows the percentage of revenue contributed by each of Cadence’s product categories for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024:
_____________ * Includes immaterial amount of revenue accounted for under leasing arrangements. Cadence generates revenue from contracts with customers and applies judgment in identifying and evaluating any terms and conditions in contracts which may impact revenue recognition. Certain of Cadence’s licensing arrangements allow customers the ability to remix among software products. Cadence also has arrangements with customers that include a combination of products, with the actual product selection and number of licensed users to be determined at a later date. For these arrangements, Cadence estimates the allocation of the revenue to product categories based upon the expected usage of products. Revenue by product category fluctuates from period to period based on demand for products and services, and Cadence’s available resources to deliver them. No single customer accounted for 10% or more of total revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 or June 30, 2024. Recurring revenue includes revenue recognized over time from certain of Cadence’s software licensing arrangements, services, royalties, maintenance on IP licenses and hardware, and operating leases of hardware. Other recurring revenue includes revenue recognized at a point in time for certain short-term software arrangements that are typically renewed at least annually and revenue recognized at varying points in time over the term of other arrangements with non-cancelable commitments, whereby the customer commits to a fixed dollar amount over a specified period of time that can be used to purchase from a list of products. Arrangements that require future decisions on the performance obligations to be delivered do not meet the definition of a revenue contract until the customer executes a separate selection form to identify the products and services that they are purchasing. Each separate selection form under the arrangement is treated as an individual contract and accounted for based on the respective performance obligations. The remainder of Cadence’s revenue is recognized at a point in time and is characterized as up-front revenue. Up-front revenue is primarily generated by sales of hardware, individual IP licenses and certain software licenses with a term greater than one year. The percentage of Cadence’s recurring and up-front revenue in any single fiscal period is primarily impacted by delivery of hardware and IP products to its customers. The following table shows the percentage of Cadence’s revenue that is classified as recurring or up-front for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024:
Significant Judgments Cadence’s contracts with customers often include promises to transfer to a customer multiple software and/or IP licenses and services, including professional services, technical support services, and rights to unspecified updates. Determining whether licenses and services are distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately, or not distinct and thus accounted for together, requires significant judgment. In some arrangements, such as the license of certain software and most of Cadence’s IP license arrangements, Cadence has concluded that the licenses and the related updates and technical support are distinct from each other. In others, such as Cadence’s time-based software arrangements, the licenses and certain services are not distinct from each other. These time-based software arrangements include multiple software licenses and updates to the licensed software products, as well as technical support, and Cadence has concluded that these promised goods and services are a single, combined performance obligation. The accounting for contracts with multiple performance obligations requires the contract’s transaction price to be allocated to each distinct performance obligation based on relative stand-alone selling price (“SSP”). Judgment is required to determine the SSP for each distinct performance obligation because Cadence rarely licenses or sells products on a standalone basis. In instances where the SSP is not directly observable because Cadence does not sell the license, product or service separately, Cadence determines the SSP using information that maximizes the use of observable inputs and may include market conditions. Cadence typically has more than one SSP for individual performance obligations due to the stratification of those items by classes of customers and circumstances. In these instances, Cadence may use information such as the size of the customer and geographic region of the customer in determining the SSP. Revenue is recognized over time for Cadence’s combined performance obligations that include software licenses, updates, technical support and maintenance that are separate performance obligations with the same term. For Cadence’s professional services, revenue is recognized over time, generally using costs incurred or hours expended to measure progress. Judgment is required in estimating project status and the costs necessary to complete projects. A number of internal and external factors can affect these estimates, including labor rates, utilization and efficiency variances and specification and testing requirement changes. For Cadence’s other performance obligations recognized over time, revenue is generally recognized using a time-based measure of progress reflecting generally consistent efforts to satisfy those performance obligations throughout the arrangement term. If a group of agreements are so closely related that they are, in effect, part of a single arrangement, such agreements are deemed to be one arrangement for revenue recognition purposes. Cadence exercises significant judgment to evaluate the relevant facts and circumstances in determining whether the separate agreements should be accounted for separately or as, in substance, a single arrangement. Cadence’s judgments about whether a group of contracts comprise a single arrangement can affect the allocation of consideration to the distinct performance obligations, which could have an effect on results of operations for the periods involved. Cadence is required to estimate the total consideration expected to be received from contracts with customers. In limited circumstances, the consideration expected to be received is variable based on the specific terms of the contract or based on Cadence’s expectations of the term of the contract. Generally, Cadence has not experienced significant returns or refunds to customers. These estimates require significant judgment and a change in these estimates could have an effect on its results of operations for the periods involved. Contract Balances The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers, and these timing differences result in receivables, contract assets, or contract liabilities (deferred revenue) on Cadence’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. For certain software, hardware and IP agreements with payment plans, Cadence records an unbilled receivable related to revenue recognized upon transfer of control because it has an unconditional right to invoice and receive payment in the future related to those transferred products or services. Cadence records a contract asset when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing and Cadence does not have the unconditional right to invoice or retains performance risk with respect to that performance obligation. Cadence records deferred revenue when revenue is recognized subsequent to invoicing. For Cadence’s time-based software agreements, customers are generally invoiced in equal, quarterly amounts, although some customers are invoiced in single or annual amounts. The contract assets indicated below are included in prepaid expenses and other in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and primarily relate to Cadence’s rights to consideration for work completed but not billed as of the balance sheet date on services and customized IP contracts. The contract assets are transferred to receivables when the rights become unconditional, usually upon completion of a milestone. Cadence’s contract balances as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows:
Cadence recognized revenue of $193.6 million and $583.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, and $185.9 million and $510.3 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each respective fiscal year. All other activity in deferred revenue, with the exception of deferred revenue assumed from acquisitions, is due to the timing of invoices in relation to the timing of revenue as described above. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 to 60 days. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, Cadence has determined that its contracts generally do not include a significant financing component. The primary purpose of invoicing terms is to provide customers with simplified and predictable ways of purchasing Cadence’s products and services, and not to facilitate financing arrangements. Remaining Performance Obligations Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations that are unsatisfied, or partially unsatisfied, which includes unearned revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. Cadence has elected to exclude the potential future royalty receipts from the remaining performance obligations. Contracted but unsatisfied performance obligations were $6.4 billion as of June 30, 2025, which included $0.5 billion of non-cancelable commitments from customers where actual product selection and quantities of specific products or services are to be determined by customers at a later date. Cadence estimates its remaining performance obligations at a point in time. Actual amounts and timing of revenue recognition may differ from these estimates largely due to changes in actual installation and delivery dates, as well as contract renewals, modifications and terminations. As of June 30, 2025, Cadence expected to recognize 53% of the contracted but unsatisfied performance obligations, excluding non-cancelable commitments, as revenue over the next 12 months, 43% over the next 13 to 36 months and the remainder thereafter. Cadence recognized revenue of $15.1 million and $30.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, and $15.1 million and $30.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods. These amounts represent royalties earned during the period and exclude contracts with nonrefundable prepaid royalties. Nonrefundable prepaid royalties are recognized upon delivery of the IP because Cadence’s right to the consideration is not contingent upon customers’ future shipments.

| DEBT | DEBT Cadence’s outstanding debt was as follows:
Senior Notes In September 2024, Cadence issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.200% Senior Notes due September 10, 2027 (the “2027 Notes”). Cadence received net proceeds of $496.5 million from the issuance of the 2027 Notes, net of a discount of $0.1 million and issuance costs of $3.5 million. As of June 30, 2025, the fair value of the 2027 Notes was $501.2 million. In September 2024, Cadence issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.300% Senior Notes due September 10, 2029 (the “2029 Notes”). Cadence received net proceeds of $989.8 million from the issuance of the 2029 Notes, net of a discount of $1.4 million and issuance costs of $8.8 million. As of June 30, 2025, the fair value of the 2029 Notes was $1.0 billion. In September 2024, Cadence issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.700% Senior Notes due September 10, 2034 (the “2034 Notes,” and together with the 2027 Notes and the 2029 Notes, the “New Senior Notes”). Cadence received net proceeds of $988.8 million from the issuance of the 2034 Notes, net of a discount of $1.9 million and issuance costs of $9.3 million. As of June 30, 2025, the fair value of the 2034 Notes was $988.8 million. Cadence may redeem the New Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, at redemption prices specified in the governing indenture. In addition, Cadence may be required to repurchase New Senior Notes upon occurrence of a change of control triggering event, as set forth in the governing indenture. The indenture governing the New Senior Notes includes customary representations, warranties and restrictive covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on Cadence’s ability to grant liens on certain assets, enter into certain sale and lease-back transactions, or merge, consolidate or sell assets, and also includes customary events of default. As of June 30, 2025, Cadence was in compliance with all covenants associated with the New Senior Notes. Both the discount and issuance costs are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the New Senior Notes using the effective interest method. Interest on the New Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears in March and September of each year. The New Senior Notes are unsecured and rank equal in right of payment to all of Cadence’s existing and future senior indebtedness. Revolving Credit Facility In August 2024, Cadence terminated its existing revolving credit facility, dated June 30, 2021, and amended in September 2022, and entered into a five-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of lenders led by Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (the “2024 Credit Facility”). The 2024 Credit Facility provides for borrowings up to $1.25 billion, with the right to request increased capacity up to an additional $500.0 million upon the receipt of lender commitments, for total maximum borrowings of $1.75 billion. The 2024 Credit Facility expires on August 14, 2029. Any outstanding loans drawn under the 2024 Credit Facility are due at maturity on August 14, 2029, subject to an option to extend the maturity date. Outstanding borrowings may be repaid at any time prior to maturity. Cadence paid debt issuance costs of $1.3 million that were recorded to other assets in Cadence’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at the inception of the agreement. The debt issuance costs will be amortized to interest expense over the term of the 2024 Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2025, there were no outstanding borrowings under the 2024 Credit Facility. Interest accrues on borrowings under the 2024 Credit Facility at a rate equal to, at Cadence’s option, either (1) secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) plus a margin between 0.625% and 1.125% per annum, determined by reference to the credit rating of Cadence’s unsecured debt, plus a SOFR adjustment of 0.10% or (2) the base rate plus a margin between 0.000% and 0.125% per annum, determined by reference to the credit rating of Cadence’s unsecured debt. Interest is payable quarterly. A commitment fee ranging from 0.050% to 0.125% is assessed on the daily average undrawn portion of revolving commitments. Borrowings bear interest at what is estimated to be current market rates of interest. Accordingly, the carrying value of the 2024 Credit Facility approximates fair value. The 2024 Credit Facility contains customary negative covenants that, among other things, restrict Cadence’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, grant liens and make certain asset dispositions. In addition, the 2024 Credit Facility contains financial covenants that require Cadence to maintain a funded debt to EBITDA ratio not greater than 3.5 to 1, with a step up to 4 to 1 for one year following an acquisition by Cadence of at least $250.0 million that results in a pro forma leverage ratio between 3.25 to 1 and 3.75 to 1. As of June 30, 2025, Cadence was in compliance with all covenants associated with the 2024 Credit Facility.

| ACQUISITIONS | ACQUISITION Acquisition of VLAB Works On May 29, 2025, Cadence acquired all of the outstanding equity of a holding company containing the VLAB Works business (“VLAB Works”). The aggregate purchase consideration for Cadence’s acquisition of VLAB Works, net of cash acquired of $5.2 million, was $122.1 million. The addition of VLAB Works’ technologies and talent is intended to accelerate Cadence’s Intelligent System Design™ strategy by enhancing system verification full flow, while strengthening its capabilities in virtual and hybrid pre-silicon software validation. In connection with the acquisition of VLAB Works, Cadence paid an additional, immaterial amount to a third-party escrow agent that will be released to a former VLAB Works shareholder, subject to continued employment with Cadence, through the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026. The release of these funds is subject to continuous service and other conditions and is accounted for over the required service period as post-acquisition compensation expense in Cadence’s consolidated income statements. The total purchase consideration was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with Cadence’s acquisition of VLAB Works based on their respective fair values on the acquisition date as follows:
The recorded goodwill is attributed to intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, including the acquired assembled workforce, and is expected to be deductible for U.S. income tax purposes. Definite-lived intangible assets acquired with Cadence’s acquisition of VLAB Works were as follows:
As of June 30, 2025, the allocation of purchase consideration to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities from VLAB Works was preliminary. Cadence will continue to evaluate the estimates and assumptions used to derive the fair value of certain acquired assets and assumed liabilities, primarily related to income taxes, during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The allocation of purchase consideration may change materially as additional information about conditions existing at the acquisition date becomes available. Pro Forma Financial Information Cadence has not presented pro forma financial information for VLAB Works because the results of operations are not material to Cadence’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Acquisition-Related Transaction Costs Transaction costs associated with acquisitions, which consist of professional fees and administrative costs, are expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expense in Cadence’s condensed consolidated income statements. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, transaction costs associated with acquisitions were $4.0 million and $6.0 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, transaction costs associated with acquisitions were $3.4 million and $12.3 million, respectively.

| NET INCOME PER SHARE | NET INCOME PER SHARE Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income during the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during that period, less unvested restricted stock awards. Diluted net income per share is impacted by equity instruments considered to be potential common shares, if dilutive, computed using the treasury stock method of accounting. The calculations for basic and diluted net income per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024 are as follows:
The following table presents shares of Cadence’s common stock outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024 that were excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share because the effect of including these shares in the computation of diluted net income per share would have been anti-dilutive:

| FAIR VALUE | FAIR VALUE Inputs to valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect Cadence’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs have created the following fair value hierarchy: •Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; •Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and •Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. This hierarchy requires Cadence to minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to use observable market data, if available, when determining fair value. Cadence recognizes transfers between levels of the hierarchy based on the fair values of the respective financial instruments at the end of the reporting period in which the transfer occurred. There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the six months ended June 30, 2025. On a quarterly basis, Cadence measures at fair value certain financial assets and liabilities. The fair value of financial assets and liabilities was determined using the following levels of inputs as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
Level 1 Measurements Cadence’s cash equivalents held in money market funds, marketable equity securities and the trading securities held in Cadence’s NQDC trust are measured at fair value using Level 1 inputs. Level 2 Measurements The valuation techniques used to determine the fair value of Cadence’s investments in marketable debt securities, foreign currency forward exchange contracts and New Senior Notes are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. For additional information relating to Cadence’s debt arrangements, see Note 4 in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. Level 3 Measurements During the six months ended June 30, 2025, Cadence acquired intangible assets of $27.7 million through its acquisition of VLAB Works. The fair value of the intangible assets acquired was determined using variations of the income approach that utilizes unobservable inputs classified as Level 3 measurements. For existing technology, the fair value was determined by applying the relief-from-royalty method. This method is based on the application of a royalty rate to forecasted revenue to quantify the benefit of owning the intangible asset rather than paying a royalty for use of the asset. To estimate royalty savings over time, Cadence projected revenue from the acquired existing technology over the estimated remaining life of the technology, including the effect of assumed technological obsolescence, before applying an assumed royalty rate. Cadence assumed technological obsolescence at a rate of 10% annually, before applying an assumed royalty rate of 30%. For agreements and relationships, the fair value was determined by using the multi-period excess earnings method. This method reflects the present value of the projected cash flows that are expected to be generated from existing customers, less charges representing the contribution of other assets to those cash flows. Projected income from existing customer relationships was determined using a customer retention rate of 85%. The present value of operating cash flows from existing customers was determined using a discount rate of 10%

| Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Legal Proceedings From time to time, Cadence is involved in various disputes and litigation that arise in the ordinary course of business. These include disputes and legal proceedings related to intellectual property, indemnification obligations, mergers and acquisitions, licensing, contracts, customers, products, distribution and other commercial arrangements and employee relations matters. Cadence is also subject from time to time to inquiries, investigations and regulatory proceedings involving governments and regulatory agencies in the jurisdictions in which Cadence operates, including the investigations by the Bureau of Industry and Security (“BIS”) of the U.S. Department of Commerce and the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) regarding certain historical sales by Cadence to customers in China. At least quarterly, Cadence reviews the status of each significant matter and assesses its potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount or the range of loss can be estimated, Cadence accrues a liability for the estimated loss. Legal proceedings are subject to uncertainties, and the outcomes are difficult to predict. Because of such uncertainties, accruals are based on Cadence’s judgments using the best information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, Cadence reassesses the potential liability related to pending claims and legal proceedings and may revise estimates. As previously disclosed, Cadence has been responding to subpoenas received from BIS in February 2021 and DOJ in November 2023 regarding sales and business activity in China. In December 2024, Cadence began discussions with BIS and DOJ regarding their preliminary findings and a potential resolution and recorded an estimated probable liability based on the facts and circumstances as of December 31, 2024. In June 2025, Cadence, BIS and DOJ started making substantial progress towards reaching a resolution. On July 27, 2025, Cadence reached a settlement with each of BIS and DOJ that resolved these matters. The settlements relate to export violations that took place between 2015 and 2021 primarily involving sales initiated by a Cadence subsidiary of products and services valued at $45.3 million in total over that period to a customer in China, as well as the subsequent transfer of technology involved in those sales to a third party in China, without the requisite authorization from BIS. As part of the settlements, Cadence has entered into a plea agreement with the DOJ pursuant to which Cadence has agreed to plead guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit export controls violations. The plea agreement is subject to court approval. In addition, Cadence has entered into an administrative settlement agreement with BIS. Both agreements include ongoing audit, compliance and other obligations. Under these agreements, Cadence has also agreed to pay BIS and the DOJ aggregate net penalties and forfeitures of $140.6 million during the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2025. Cadence recorded a charge of $128.5 million in Loss related to contingent liability in its condensed consolidated income statement during the three months ended June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2025, Cadence has accrued an aggregate of $140.6 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in its condensed consolidated balance sheet. Other Contingencies Cadence provides its customers with a warranty on sales of hardware products, generally for a 90-day period. Cadence did not incur any significant costs related to warranty obligations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 or June 30, 2024. Cadence’s product license and services agreements typically include a limited indemnification provision for claims from third parties relating to Cadence’s intellectual property. If the potential loss from any indemnification claim is considered probable and the amount or the range of loss can be estimated, Cadence accrues a liability for the estimated loss. Cadence did not incur any material losses from indemnification claims during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 or June 30, 2024.

| SEGMENT REPORTING | SEGMENT REPORTING Segment reporting is based on the “management approach,” following the method that management organizes the company’s reportable segments for which separate financial information is made available to, and evaluated regularly by, the chief operating decision maker in allocating resources and in assessing performance. Cadence operates as one operating segment. Cadence’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its CEO. The CODM makes decisions on resource allocation and assesses performance of the business based on Cadence’s consolidated results, including net income. For additional information on Cadence’s revenue, including the nature and timing of revenue from contracts with customers, see Note 2 in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. The following table presents revenue, significant expenses and net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024:
_____________ (1) For information regarding the loss related to a contingent liability, see Note 14 in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. (2) Other segment items include direct costs for advertising, marketing events, travel, entertainment, bad debt and other operating expense categories that are not considered significant individually. It also includes non-operating expenses such as gains and losses on investments, foreign currency and other non-operating expenses that are not considered significant individually. Outside the United States, Cadence markets and supports its products and services primarily through its subsidiaries. Revenue is attributed to geography based upon the country in which the product is used, or services are delivered. Long-lived assets are attributed to geography based on the country where the assets are located. The following table presents a summary of revenue by geography for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024:
The following table presents a summary of long-lived assets by geography as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

| Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
| SUBSEQUENT EVENT | SUBSEQUENT EVENT On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the United States. The OBBBA includes significant provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions including the immediate expensing of United States research and development expenditures. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in fiscal 2025 and others implemented from fiscal 2026. Cadence is currently assessing the tax impact of the legislation on its condensed consolidated financial statements; however, it is expected to materially decrease Cadence's United States federal tax payments for the remainder of fiscal 2025. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, Cadence intends to recognize the fiscal 2025 tax effects of the OBBBA in its condensed consolidated financial statements for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2025.

| Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
| Basis of presentation | The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared by Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (“Cadence”) without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. |
| Use of estimates | Preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Risks and Uncertainties Because Cadence operates globally, its business is subject to the effects of economic downturns or recessions in the regions in which it does business, volatility in foreign currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar, inflation, changing interest rates, expanded trade control laws and regulations, imposition of new or higher tariffs and geopolitical conflicts. Cadence has been impacted by the continued expansion of trade control laws and regulations, including certain export control restrictions concerning advanced node IC production in China, the inclusion of additional Chinese technology companies on the Bureau of Industry and Security (“BIS”) “Entity List” and regulations governing the sale of certain technologies. On May 23, 2025, BIS informed Cadence that a license was required for the export, re-export or in-country transfer of EDA software and technology classified under Export Control Classification Numbers (ECCNs) 3D991 and 3E991 on the Commerce Control List (“EDA Software and Technology”), when a party to the transaction is located in China or is a Chinese “military end user” wherever located. On July 2, 2025, BIS informed Cadence that the license requirements set forth in the May 23, 2025 letter from BIS were rescinded effective immediately. During this period, Cadence's revenue in China decreased primarily due to reduced deliveries of software offerings to the customers in China due to these license requirements. Cadence has since restored access to EDA Software and Technology for affected customers in accordance with these updated U.S. export regulations. The impact of these expanded trade control laws and regulations on Cadence’s condensed consolidated financial statements was not material

| New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy | Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Segment Reporting In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced annual and interim disclosures for significant segment expenses. Cadence adopted this ASU retrospectively during fiscal 2024 for its Annual Report. For interim disclosures required by this ASU, see Note 15 in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted Income Taxes In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which requires disclosure of disaggregated income taxes paid, prescribes standard categories for the components of the effective tax rate reconciliation, and modifies other income tax-related disclosures. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and may be applied on a retrospective or prospective basis. Cadence plans to adopt this standard in connection with its annual report for fiscal 2025 and is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Income Statement - Expense Disaggregation Disclosure In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures,” which requires additional disclosure of certain costs and expenses in the notes to the financial statements. The updated standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. Cadence is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

| Fair value of financial instruments | Inputs to valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect Cadence’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs have created the following fair value hierarchy: •Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; •Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and •Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. This hierarchy requires Cadence to minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to use observable market data, if available, when determining fair value. Cadence recognizes transfers between levels of the hierarchy based on the fair values of the respective financial instruments at the end of the reporting period in which the transfer occurred.

| Contingencies | At least quarterly, Cadence reviews the status of each significant matter and assesses its potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount or the range of loss can be estimated, Cadence accrues a liability for the estimated loss. Legal proceedings are subject to uncertainties, and the outcomes are difficult to predict. Because of such uncertainties, accruals are based on Cadence’s judgments using the best information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, Cadence reassesses the potential liability related to pending claims and legal proceedings and may revise estimates. |
