Retirement Benefits [Abstract] |
EMPLOYEE AND DIRECTOR BENEFIT PLANS | EMPLOYEE AND DIRECTOR BENEFIT PLANS Cadence maintains various defined contribution plans for its eligible U.S. and non-U.S. employees. For employees in the United States, Cadence maintains a 401(k) savings plan to provide retirement benefits through tax-deferred salary deductions and may make discretionary contributions, as determined by the Board of Directors, which cannot exceed a specified percentage of the annual aggregate salaries of those employees eligible to participate. Cadence’s total contributions made to these plans during fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017 were as follows:
| 2019 |  | 2018 |  | 2017
| (In thousands)
Contributions to defined contribution plans | $ | 25,269 |  |  | $ | 25,731 |  |  | $ | 26,010 |
Executive Officers and Directors may also elect to defer compensation payable to them under Cadence’s NQDC. Deferred compensation payments are held in investment accounts and the values of the accounts are adjusted each quarter based on the fair value of the investments held in the NQDC. These investments are classified in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets and gains and losses are recognized as other income, net in the consolidated income statements. Certain of Cadence’s international subsidiaries sponsor defined benefit retirement plans. The unfunded projected benefit obligation for Cadence’s defined benefit retirement plans is recorded in other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
