(Nasdaq: SNPS), a global leader providing software, IP and services used to accelerate innovation in chips and electronic systems, today reported results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year 2012. For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, Synopsys reported revenue of $454.2 million, compared to $390.5 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011. Revenue for fiscal year 2012 was $1.756 billion, an increase of 14.3 percent from $1.536 billion in fiscal 2011. "Synopsys delivered very strong fiscal 2012 results with double-digit revenue and non-GAAP earnings per share growth. Simultaneously we also completed a significant number of important acquisitions during the year," said Aart de Geus, chairman and co-CEO of Synopsys. "Electronic design automation solutions are more critical than ever, as semiconductor companies face significant technical challenges while racing to design highly complex chips and systems. Synopsys is particularly well-positioned heading into 2013, based on our technology leadership, significant customer demand, and our predictable business model." GAAP Results On a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis, net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 was $29.1 million, or $0.19 per share, compared to $39.9 million, or $0.27 per share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011. GAAP net income for fiscal year 2012 was $182.4 million, or $1.21 per share, compared to $221.4 million, or $1.47 per share, for fiscal 2011. Net income for fiscal 2012 included $43.6 million of acquisition-related costs, plus higher amortization of intangibles than in the previous year primarily due to acquisitions. Due to our fiscal calendar, the first quarter of fiscal year 2012 included an extra week. Non-GAAP Results On a non-GAAP basis, net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 was $72.4 million, or $0.47 per share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $65.3 million, or $0.45 per share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011.

GAAP Reconciliation Synopsys continues to provide all information required in accordance with GAAP but believes evaluating its ongoing operating results may not be as useful if an investor is limited to reviewing only GAAP financial measures. Accordingly, Synopsys presents non-GAAP financial measures in reporting its financial results to provide investors with an additional tool to evaluate Synopsys' operating results in a manner that focuses on what Synopsys believes to be its ongoing business operations and what Synopsys uses to evaluate its ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Synopsys' management does not itself, nor does it suggest that investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Synopsys' management believes it is useful for itself and investors to review, as applicable, both GAAP information that includes: (i) the amortization of acquired intangible assets, (ii) the impact of stock compensation, (iii) acquisition-related costs, including inventory fair value adjustments, (iv) other significant items, including facilities restructuring charges and the effect of benefits from tax settlements with tax authorities, and (v) the income tax effect of non-GAAP pre-tax adjustments as well as unusual or infrequent tax adjustments; and the non-GAAP measures that exclude such information in order to assess the performance of Synopsys' business and for planning and forecasting in subsequent periods. Whenever Synopsys uses a non-GAAP financial measure, it provides a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most closely applicable GAAP financial measure. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure as detailed below.
