Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
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 27, 2020. 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 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019:

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 foreign currency forward exchange contracts and 2024 Notes are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. For additional information relating to Cadence’s debt arrangements, see Note 2 in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. Level 3 Measurements Cadence acquired intangible assets of $101.3 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2020 with its acquisition of AWR and Integrand. The fair value of the definite-lived intangible assets acquired was determined using variations of the income approach and level 3 inputs. Key assumptions include the level and timing of expected future cash flows, the level of customer demand and industry outlook for Electronic Design Automation (“EDA”) solutions, discount rates and the economy in general. The fair value of these intangible assets was affected most significantly by the projected income associated with the identified intangible assets and the anticipated timing of the projected income, but was also impacted by the discount rate used to adjust the outcomes to their present values. Cadence used discount rates ranging from 9.0% to 12.5% to value the definite-lived intangible assets acquired during the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The weighted-average discount rate used to value intangible assets was 10.3%. Cadence also assumed obligations related to deferred revenue of $6.9 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2020 with its acquisition of AWR. The fair value of these obligations was estimated using the cost build-up approach. The cost build-up approach determines fair value using estimates of the costs required to fulfill the contracted obligations plus an assumed profit. Cadence assumed a 25% profit margin when valuing these liabilities, which were then adjusted to present value using a discount rate of 4.75%. The resulting fair value using this approach approximates the amount that AWR would be required to pay a third party to assume the obligation. The fair value of the deferred revenue obligations assumed was affected most significantly by the estimated costs required to support the obligation, but was also affected by the assumed profit and the discount rate. Cadence believes that its estimates and assumptions related to the fair value of its acquired intangible assets and deferred revenue obligations are reasonable, but significant judgment is involved.
