NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1. 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 January 1, 2022.
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. Certain prior period balances 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.
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.
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and rising tensions in the geopolitical climate, there continues to be uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. Cadence is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to its estimates or judgments or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities as of April 25, 2022, the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These estimates may change, as new events occur and additional information is obtained. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
Lessors - Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments
In July 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), issued ASU 2021-05, “Lessors - Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments,” which allows lessors to classify and account for a lease with variable payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate as an operating lease if both of the following criteria are met: (1) the lease would have been classified as a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease in accordance with the classification criteria as defined in ASC Topic 842 and (2) the lessor would have otherwise recognized a day-one loss on the lease arrangement. This standard better aligns the accounting with the underlying economics of these arrangements as lessors are not permitted to include most variable payments which do not depend on a reference index or a rate in the lease receivable while assets are derecognized at lease commencement. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Cadence adopted this standard on January 2, 2022, the first day of fiscal 2022, on a prospective basis. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on Cadence’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Business Combinations
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers,” which requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” as if the acquiring entity had originated the contracts. This approach differs from the current requirement to measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination at fair value. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. Cadence adopted this standard on January 2, 2022, the first day of fiscal 2022. The impact of the standard on Cadence’s condensed consolidated financial statements is dependent on the size and frequency of future acquisitions and does not affect contract assets or contract liabilities related to acquisitions completed prior to the adoption date.

NOTE 2. REVENUE
Cadence groups its products and services into five categories related to major design activities. The following table shows the percentage of revenue contributed by each of Cadence’s five product categories for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021:

|  |  | Three Months Ended
|  |  |  |  | April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021
Custom Integrated Circuit (“IC”) Design and Simulation |  |  |  |  | 22 | % |  | 23 | %
Digital IC Design and Signoff |  |  |  |  | 27 | % |  | 27 | %
Functional Verification, including Emulation and Prototyping Hardware* |  |  |  |  | 28 | % |  | 26 | %
Intellectual Property (“IP”) |  |  |  |  | 13 | % |  | 14 | %
System Design and Analysis |  |  |  |  | 10 | % |  | 10 | %
Total |  |  |  |  | 100 | % |  | 100 | %

_____________
* 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 one customer accounted for 10% or more of total revenue during the three months ended April 2, 2022 or the three months ended April 3, 2021.
Generally, between 85% and 90% of Cadence’s annual revenue is characterized as recurring revenue. Recurring revenue includes revenue recognized over time from our software arrangements, services, royalties, maintenance on IP licenses and hardware, and operating leases of hardware. Recurring revenue also includes 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 or services. These arrangements 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 emulation and prototyping hardware and individual IP licenses. The percentage of Cadence’s recurring and up-front revenue may be impacted by delivery of hardware and IP products to its customers in any single fiscal period. The following table shows the percentage of Cadence’s revenue that is classified as recurring or up-front for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021:

|  |  | Three Months Ended
|  |  |  |  | April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021
Revenue recognized over time |  |  |  |  | 81 | % |  | 82 | %
Revenue from arrangements with non-cancelable commitments |  |  |  |  | 2 | % |  | 4 | %
Recurring revenue |  |  |  |  | 83 | % |  | 86 | %
Up-front revenue |  |  |  |  | 17 | % |  | 14 | %
Total |  |  |  |  | 100 | % |  | 100 | %

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 most of Cadence’s IP license arrangements, Cadence has concluded that the licenses and associated services are distinct from each other. In others, like Cadence’s time-based software arrangements, the licenses and certain services are not distinct from each other. Cadence’s 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 standalone 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 during 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 prefer to be invoiced in single or annual amounts.
The contract assets indicated below are included in prepaid expenses and other in the condensed consolidated balance sheet 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.
8

Cadence’s contract balances as of April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022 were as follows:

| As of
| April 2, 2022 |  | January 1, 2022
| (In thousands)
Contract assets | $ | 19,066 |  |  | $ | 6,811 |
Deferred revenue | 707,117 |  |  | 655,090 |

Cadence recognized revenue of $281.6 million during the three months ended April 2, 2022, and $226.6 million during the three months ended April 3, 2021, that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each respective fiscal year. All other activity in deferred revenue 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 approximately $5.1 billion as of April 2, 2022, which included $196.9 million 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. As of April 2, 2022, Cadence expected to recognize approximately 50% of the contracted but unsatisfied performance obligations, excluding non-cancelable commitments, as revenue over the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter.
Cadence recognized revenue of $12.2 million during the three months ended April 2, 2022, and $10.2 million during the three months ended April 3, 2021, 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.
NOTE 3. RECEIVABLES, NET
Cadence’s current and long-term receivables balances as of April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022 were as follows:

| As of
| April 2, 2022 |  | January 1, 2022
| (In thousands)
Accounts receivable | $ | 227,181 |  |  | $ | 185,599 |
Unbilled accounts receivable | 137,244 |  |  | 155,689 |
Long-term receivables | 6,781 |  |  | 5,098 |
Total receivables | 371,206 |  |  | 346,386 |
Less allowance for doubtful accounts | (2,636) |  |  | (3,692) |
Total receivables, net | $ | 368,570 |  |  | $ | 342,694 |

Cadence’s customers are primarily concentrated within the semiconductor and electronics systems industries. No one customer accounted for 10% or more of Cadence’s total receivables as of April 2, 2022 or January 1, 2022.

NOTE 4. DEBT
Revolving Credit Facility
In June 2021, Cadence 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 “2021 Credit Facility”). The 2021 Credit Facility provides for borrowings up to $700 million, with the right to request increased capacity up to an additional $350 million upon the receipt of lender commitments, for total maximum borrowings of $1.05 billion. The 2021 Credit Facility expires on June 30, 2026. Any outstanding loans drawn under such credit facility are due at maturity on June 30, 2026, subject to an option to extend the maturity date. Outstanding borrowings may be repaid at any time prior to maturity. Debt issuance costs of $1.3 million were recorded to other assets in Cadence’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at the inception of the agreement and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the 2021 Credit Facility.
Interest accrues on borrowings under the 2021 Credit Facility at a rate equal to, at Cadence’s option, either (1) LIBOR plus a margin between 0.750% and 1.250% per annum, determined by reference to the credit rating of Cadence’s unsecured debt, or (2) the base rate plus a margin between 0.000% and 0.250% per annum, determined by reference to the credit rating of Cadence’s unsecured debt. Interest is payable quarterly. A commitment fee ranging from 0.070% to 0.175% is assessed on the daily average undrawn portion of revolving commitments. The 2021 Credit Facility also includes provisions addressing the potential transition from LIBOR to a new replacement benchmark.
The 2021 Credit Facility contains customary negative covenants that, among other things, restrict Cadence’s ability to incur additional indebtedness and grant liens. In addition, the 2021 Credit Facility contains financial covenants that require Cadence to maintain a funded debt to EBITDA ratio not greater than 3.25 to 1, with a step up to 3.75 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 3.00 to 1 and 3.50 to 1. As of April 2, 2022, Cadence was in compliance with all financial covenants associated with the 2021 Credit Facility.
2024 Notes
In October 2014, Cadence issued $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.375% Senior Notes due October 15, 2024 (the “2024 Notes”). Cadence received net proceeds of $342.4 million from the issuance of the 2024 Notes, net of a discount of $1.4 million and issuance costs of $6.2 million. Both the discount and issuance costs are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the 2024 Notes using the effective interest method. Interest is payable in cash semi-annually in April and October. The 2024 Notes are unsecured and rank equal in right of payment to all of Cadence’s existing and future senior indebtedness. The carrying value of the 2024 Notes was $347.8 million and $347.6 million as of April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022, respectively. The fair value of the 2024 Notes was approximately $358.6 million as of April 2, 2022.
Cadence may redeem the 2024 Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (a) 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, and (b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, as more particularly described in the indenture governing the 2024 Notes.
The indenture governing the 2024 Notes includes customary representations, warranties and restrictive covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on Cadence’s ability to grant liens on assets, enter into sale and lease-back transactions, or merge, consolidate or sell assets, and also includes customary events of default.

Cadence had total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock option and restricted stock grants of $420.2 million as of April 2, 2022, which will be recognized over the remaining vesting period. The remaining weighted average vesting period of unvested awards is 2.3 years.
NOTE 7. STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM
In August 2021, Cadence’s Board of Directors increased the prior authorization to repurchase shares of Cadence common stock by authorizing an additional $1 billion. The actual timing and amount of repurchases are subject to business and market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, stock price, acquisition opportunities and other factors. As of April 2, 2022, approximately $877 million of the share repurchase authorization remained available to repurchase shares of Cadence common stock.
The shares repurchased under Cadence’s repurchase authorizations and the total cost of repurchased shares, including commissions, during the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021 were as follows:

|  |  | Three Months Ended
|  |  |  |  | April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021
|  |  |  |  | (In thousands)

Total cost of repurchased shares |  |  |  |  | $ | 250,016 |  |  | $ | 172,267 |

NOTE 8. 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 months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021 are as follows:

|  |  | Three Months Ended
|  |  |  |  | April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021
|  |  |  |  | (In thousands, except per share amounts)
Net income |  |  |  |  | $ | 235,335 |  |  | $ | 187,169 |
Weighted average common shares used to calculate basic net income per share |  |  |  |  | 272,431 |  |  | 274,021 |
Stock-based awards |  |  |  |  | 4,487 |  |  | 6,119 |
Weighted average common shares used to calculate diluted net income per share |  |  |  |  | 276,918 |  |  | 280,140 |
Net income per share - basic |  |  |  |  | $ | 0.86 |  |  | $ | 0.68 |
Net income per share - diluted |  |  |  |  | $ | 0.85 |  |  | $ | 0.67 |

12

The following table presents shares of Cadence’s common stock outstanding for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021 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:

|  |  | Three Months Ended
|  |  |  |  | April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021
|  |  |  |  | (In thousands)
Long-term market-based awards |  |  |  |  | 1,035 |  |  | — |
Options to purchase shares of common stock |  |  |  |  | 663 |  |  | 138 |
Non-vested shares of restricted stock |  |  |  |  | 82 |  |  | 58 |
Total potential common shares excluded |  |  |  |  | 1,780 |  |  | 196 |

NOTE 9. 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.
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 4 in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.
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 three months ended April 2, 2022.
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 April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022:

NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings
From time to time, Cadence is involved in various disputes and legal proceedings 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. 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.
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 months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021.
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. The indemnification is generally limited to the amount paid by the customer. Cadence did not incur any significant losses from indemnification claims during the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021.
NOTE 11. ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE LOSS
Cadence’s accumulated other comprehensive loss is comprised of the aggregate impact of foreign currency translation gains and losses and changes in defined benefit plan liabilities and is presented in Cadence’s condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
Accumulated other comprehensive loss was comprised of the following as of April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022:

| As of
| April 2, 2022 |  | January 1, 2022
| (In thousands)
Foreign currency translation loss | $ | (41,327) |  |  | $ | (26,553) |
Changes in defined benefit plan liabilities | (6,592) |  |  | (6,758) |
Total accumulated other comprehensive loss | $ | (47,919) |  |  | $ | (33,311) |

14

For the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021 there were no significant amounts related to foreign currency translation loss or changes in defined benefit plan liabilities reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net income.
NOTE 12. 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’s chief operating decision maker is its CEO, who reviews Cadence’s consolidated results as one operating segment. In making operating decisions, the CEO primarily considers consolidated financial information, accompanied by disaggregated information about revenues by geographic region.
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 months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) and in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022. This Quarterly Report contains statements that are not historical in nature, are predictive, or that depend upon or refer to future events or conditions or contain other forward-looking statements. Statements including, but not limited to, statements regarding the extent and timing of future revenues and expenses and customer demand, statements regarding the deployment of our products and services, statements regarding our reliance on third parties, statements regarding the impact on our business of the COVID-19 pandemic and related public health measures or mandates, and other statements using words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “projects,” “should,” “targets,” “will” and “would,” and words of similar import and the negatives thereof, constitute forward-looking statements. These statements are predictions based upon our current expectations about future events. Actual results could vary materially as a result of certain factors, including, but not limited to, those expressed in these statements. We refer you to the “Results of Operations,” “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” sections contained in this Quarterly Report, the "Risk Factors" section contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022, and the risks discussed in our other Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings, which identify important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements.
We urge you to consider these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report. All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to our company or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. The forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report are made only as of the date of this Quarterly Report. We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update these forward-looking statements.
Business Overview
We enable our customers to develop electronic products. Our products and services are designed to give our customers a competitive edge in their development of integrated circuits (“ICs”), systems-on-chip (“SoCs”), and increasingly sophisticated electronic devices and systems. Our products and services do this by optimizing performance, minimizing power consumption, shortening the time to bring our customers’ products to market, improving engineering productivity and reducing their design, development and manufacturing costs. We offer software, hardware, services and reusable IC design blocks, which are commonly referred to as intellectual property (“IP”).
Our strategy, which we call Intelligent System Design™, is to provide the technology necessary for our customers to develop electronic products across a variety of vertical markets including consumer, hyperscale computing, mobile, 5G communications, automotive, aerospace and defense, industrial and healthcare. Our products and services enable our customers to develop complex and innovative electronic products, so demand for our technology is driven by our customers’ investment in new designs and products. Historically, the industry that provided the tools used by IC engineers was referred to as Electronic Design Automation (“EDA”). Today, our offerings include and extend beyond EDA.
We group our products into categories related to major design activities:
•Custom IC Design and Simulation;
•Digital IC Design and Signoff;
•Functional Verification;
•IP; and
•System Design and Analysis.
For additional information about our products, see the discussion in Item 1, “Business,” under the heading “Products and Product Strategy,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022.
Management uses certain performance indicators to manage our business, including revenue, certain elements of operating expenses and cash flow from operations, and we describe these items further below under the headings “Results of Operations” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources.”
COVID-19 Pandemic
The effects of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic have been widespread and have resulted in authorities implementing numerous measures to contain the virus, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and business limitations and shutdowns. We are unable to accurately predict the full impact that COVID-19 will have on our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows due to numerous uncertainties, including the duration and severity of the pandemic and containment measures and the distribution, acceptance and effectiveness of vaccines. Our efforts to comply with these containment measures have impacted our day-to-day operations and could disrupt our business and operations, as well as that of our key customers, suppliers (including contract manufacturers) and other counterparties, for an indefinite period of time.
16

To support the health and well-being of our employees, customers, partners and communities, a majority of our employees are still working remotely as of April 25, 2022. In April 2022, we reopened many of our facilities in multiple regions to allow our employees the option of using our facilities, as an alternative to working from home. As a result, we currently have a large number of employees who operate in a hybrid work environment, choosing to alternate between working from home and working from our facilities.
Since its inception, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused some volatility in our delivery timing for our hardware and IP products to certain customers. Many of our customers’ employees are working remotely, and, in some cases, we have experienced delivery lead times that are longer than normal because of delays in getting access to customer sites to complete our deliveries. In other cases, the amount of our hardware and IP products that we have been able to deliver has been greater than we originally anticipated at the beginning of the respective period. Despite the challenges the COVID-19 pandemic has posed to our operations, it has not had a material, adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity or cash flows. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our business.
Russia-Ukraine Conflict
During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, due to the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the corresponding sanctions imposed by the United States and other countries, we suspended our operations in Russia. The suspension of our operations in Russia has not limited our ability to develop or support our products and did not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity or cash flows. We do not have operations or employees in Ukraine. We will continue to monitor the future developments relative to this conflict and the potential impacts it could have on our employees and our ability to provide products and services to our global customer base.
Critical Accounting Estimates
In preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements, we make assumptions, judgments and estimates that can have a significant impact on our revenue, operating income and net income, as well as on the value of certain assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. At least quarterly, we evaluate our assumptions, judgments and estimates, and make changes as deemed necessary.
For further information about our critical accounting estimates, see the discussion in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” under the heading “Critical Accounting Estimates” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022.
New Accounting Standards
For additional information about the adoption of new accounting standards, see Note 1 in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.
Results of Operations
Financial results for the three months ended April 2, 2022, as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2021, reflect the following:
•revenue growth that exceeded the growth of our costs and expenses;
•increased revenue from software, IP and other arrangements where revenue is recognized over time;
•growth in revenue from emulation and prototyping hardware where revenue is recognized up-front;
•continued investment in research and development activities and technical sales support; and
•increased provision for income taxes primarily due to changes to tax laws in the United States.
Revenue
We primarily generate revenue from licensing our software and IP, selling or leasing our emulation and prototyping hardware technology, providing maintenance for our software, hardware and IP, providing engineering services and earning royalties generated from the use of our IP. The timing of our revenue is significantly affected by the mix of software, hardware and IP products generating revenue in any given period and whether the revenue is recognized over time or at a point in time, upon completion of delivery.
Generally, between 85% and 90% of our annual revenue is characterized as recurring revenue. Recurring revenue includes revenue recognized over time from our software arrangements, services, royalties, maintenance on IP licenses and hardware, and operating leases of hardware. Recurring revenue also includes 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 or services.
17

The remainder of our revenue is recognized at a point in time and is characterized as up-front revenue. Up-front revenue is primarily generated by our sales of emulation and prototyping hardware and individual IP licenses. The percentage of our recurring and up-front revenue and fluctuations in revenue within our geographies are impacted by delivery of hardware and IP products to our customers in any single fiscal period.
The following table shows the percentage of our revenue that is classified as recurring or up-front for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021:

|  |  | Three Months Ended
|  |  |  |  | April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021
Revenue recognized over time |  |  |  |  | 81 | % |  | 82 | %
Revenue from arrangements with non-cancelable commitments |  |  |  |  | 2 | % |  | 4 | %
Recurring revenue |  |  |  |  | 83 | % |  | 86 | %
Up-front revenue |  |  |  |  | 17 | % |  | 14 | %
Total |  |  |  |  | 100 | % |  | 100 | %

While the percentage of revenue characterized as recurring compared to revenue characterized as up-front may vary between fiscal quarters, the overall mix of revenue is relatively consistent on an annual basis or over the course of twelve consecutive months. The following table shows the percentage of recurring revenue for the twelve-month periods ending concurrently with our five most recent fiscal quarters:

| Trailing Twelve Months Ended

Revenue by Period
The following table shows our revenue for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021 and the change in revenue between periods:

| Three Months Ended |  | Change
| April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021 |  | Amount |  | Percentage
| (In millions, except percentages)
Product and maintenance | $ | 846.3 |  |  | $ | 699.0 |  |  | $ | 147.3 |  |  | 21 | %
Services | 55.5 |  |  | 37.0 |  |  | 18.5 |  |  | 50 | %
Total revenue | $ | 901.8 |  |  | $ | 736.0 |  |  | $ | 165.8 |  |  | 23 | %

Product and maintenance revenue increased during the three months ended April 2, 2022, as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2021, due to increased revenue in each of our five product categories, with strong growth in emulation and prototyping hardware. This growth was driven by our customers investing in new, complex designs for their products that include the design of electronic systems for consumer, hyperscale computing, mobile, 5G communications, automotive, aerospace and defense, industrial and healthcare.
Services revenue may fluctuate from period to period based on the timing of fulfillment of our services and IP performance obligations.
No one customer accounted for 10% or more of total revenue during the three months ended April 2, 2022 or April 3, 2021.

Total | 100 | % |  | 100 | % |  | 100 | % |  | 100 | % |  | 100 | %

Revenue by product category fluctuates from period to period based on demand for our products and services, our available resources and our ability to deliver and support them. Certain of our licensing arrangements allow customers the ability to remix among software products. Additionally, we have arrangements with customers that include a combination of our products, with the actual product selection and number of licensed users to be determined at a later date. For these arrangements, we estimate the allocation of the revenue to product categories based upon the expected usage of our products. The actual usage of our products by these customers may differ and, if that proves to be the case, the revenue allocation in the table above would differ.

Most of our revenue is transacted in the United States dollar. However, certain revenue transactions are denominated in foreign currencies. For an additional description of how changes in foreign exchange rates affect our condensed consolidated financial statements, see the discussion under Item 3, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk – Foreign Currency Risk.”
Cost of Revenue

| Three Months Ended |  | Change
| April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021 |  | Amount |  | Percentage
| (In millions, except percentages)
Cost of product and maintenance | $ | 72.8 |  |  | $ | 64.9 |  |  | $ | 7.9 |  |  | 12 | %
Cost of services | 25.0 |  |  | 19.1 |  |  | 5.9 |  |  | 31 | %

Cost of Product and Maintenance
Cost of product and maintenance includes costs associated with the sale and lease of our emulation and prototyping hardware and licensing of our software and IP products, certain employee salary and benefits and other employee-related costs, cost of our customer support services, amortization of technology-related and maintenance-related acquired intangibles, costs of technical documentation and royalties payable to third-party vendors. Cost of product and maintenance depends primarily on our hardware product sales in any given period, but is also affected by employee salary and benefits and other employee-related costs, reserves for inventory, and the timing and extent to which we acquire intangible assets, license third-party technology or IP, and sell our products that include such acquired or licensed technology or IP.
A summary of cost of product and maintenance is as follows:

| Three Months Ended |  | Change
| April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021 |  | Amount |  | Percentage
| (In millions, except percentages)
Product and maintenance-related costs | $ | 60.8 |  |  | $ | 53.1 |  |  | $ | 7.7 |  |  | 15 | %
Amortization of acquired intangibles | 12.0 |  |  | 11.8 |  |  | 0.2 |  |  | 2 | %
Total cost of product and maintenance | $ | 72.8 |  |  | $ | 64.9 |  |  | $ | 7.9 |  |  | 12 | %

The changes in product and maintenance-related costs for the three months ended April 2, 2022, as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2021, were due to the following:

|  |  | Change
|  |  | Three Months Ended
|  |  | (In millions)
Emulation and prototyping hardware costs |  |  | $ | 7.1 |
Other items |  |  | 0.6 |
Total change in product and maintenance-related costs |  |  | $ | 7.7 |

Costs a ssociated with our emulation and prototyping hardware products include components, assembly, testing, applicable reserves and overhead. These costs make our cost of emulation and prototyping hardware products higher, as a percentage of revenue, than our cost of software and IP products. Emulation and prototyping hardware costs increased during the three months ended April 2, 2022, as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2021, primarily due to increased revenue from emulation and prototyping hardware products.
Cost of Services
Cost of services primarily includes employee salary, benefits and other employee-related costs to perform work on revenue-generating projects and costs to maintain the infrastructure necessary to manage a services organization. Cost of services may fluctuate from period to period based on our utilization of design services engineers on revenue-generating projects rather than internal development projects.
20

Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses include marketing and sales, research and development, and general and administrative expenses. Factors that tend to cause our operating expenses to fluctuate include changes in the number of employees due to hiring and acquisitions, our annual merit cycle, stock-based compensation, restructuring and other employment separation activities, foreign exchange rate movements, volatility in variable compensation programs that are driven by operating results, and charitable donations.
Many of our operating expenses are transacted in various foreign currencies. We recognize lower expenses in periods when the United States dollar strengthens in value against other currencies and we recognize higher expenses when the United States dollar weakens against other currencies. For an additional description of how changes in foreign exchange rates affect our condensed consolidated financial statements, see the discussion in Item 3, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk – Foreign Currency Risk.”
Our operating expenses for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021 were as follows:

| Three Months Ended |  | Change
| April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021 |  | Amount |  | Percentage
| (In millions, except percentages)
Marketing and sales | $ | 140.2 |  |  | $ | 132.8 |  |  | $ | 7.4 |  |  | 6 | %
Research and development | 290.9 |  |  | 271.0 |  |  | 19.9 |  |  | 7 | %
General and administrative | 48.9 |  |  | 40.0 |  |  | 8.9 |  |  | 22 | %
Total operating expenses | $ | 480.0 |  |  | $ | 443.8 |  |  | $ | 36.2 |  |  | 8 | %

Our operating expenses, as a percentage of total revenue, for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021 were as follows:

|  |  | Three Months Ended
|  |  |  |  | April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021
Marketing and sales |  |  |  |  | 16 | % |  | 18 | %
Research and development |  |  |  |  | 32 | % |  | 37 | %
General and administrative |  |  |  |  | 5 | % |  | 5 | %
Total operating expenses |  |  |  |  | 53 | % |  | 60 | %

Marketing and Sales
The increase in marketing and sales expense for the three months ended April 2, 2022, as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2021, was due to the following:

|  |  | Change
|  |  | Three Months Ended
|  |  | (In millions)
Salary, benefits and other employee-related costs |  |  | $ | 6.1 |
Other items |  |  | 1.3 |
Total change in marketing and sales expense |  |  | $ | 7.4 |

Salary, benefits and other employee-related costs included in marketing and sales expense increased during the three months ended April 2, 2022, as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2021, primarily due to additional headcount from hiring and increased variable compensation.
21

Research and Development
The increase in research and development expense for the three months ended April 2, 2022, as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2021, was due to the following:

|  |  | Change
|  |  | Three Months Ended
|  |  | (In millions)
Salary, benefits and other employee-related costs |  |  | $ | 13.8 |
Stock-based compensation |  |  | 2.3 |
Professional services |  |  | 2.1 |
Facilities and other infrastructure costs |  |  | 2.0 |
Other items |  |  | (0.3) |
Total change in research and development expense |  |  | $ | 19.9 |

Salary, benefits and other employee-related costs included in research and development expense increased during the three months ended April 2, 2022, as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2021, primarily due to additional headcount from hiring.
General and Administrative
The increase in general and administrative expense for the three months ended April 2, 2022, as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2021, was due to the following:

|  |  | Change
|  |  | Three Months Ended
|  |  | (In millions)
Stock-based compensation |  |  | $ | 4.0 |
Contributions to non-profit organizations |  |  | 3.5 |
Other items |  |  | 1.4 |
Total change in general and administrative expense |  |  | $ | 8.9 |

Stock-based compensation included in general and administrative expense increased during the three months ended April 2, 2022, as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2021, primarily due to equity awards granted to executives. The increase in contributions to non-profit organizations is the result of our continued commitment to support charitable initiatives, including the Cadence Giving Foundation.
Operating Margin
Operating margin represents income from operations as a percentage of total revenue. Our operating margin for the three months ended April 2, 2022, and the three months ended April 3, 2021 was as follows:

|  |  | Three Months Ended
|  |  |  |  | April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021
Operating margin |  |  |  |  | 35 | % |  | 28 | %

Operating margin increased during the three months ended April 2, 2022, as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2021, primarily because revenue growth in each of our five product categories exceeded growth in cost of revenue and operating expense. During the remainder of fiscal 2022, we do not expect operating margin to grow at the same level it has during the first quarter of fiscal 2022, because we expect up-front revenue to be lower as a percentage of total revenue for the remainder of fiscal 2022 than it was during the first quarter of fiscal 2022.

Income Taxes
The following table presents the provision for income taxes and the effective tax rate for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021:

|  |  | Three Months Ended
|  |  |  |  | April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021
|  |  |  |  | (In millions, except percentages)
Provision for income taxes |  |  |  |  | $ | 74.6 |  |  | $ | 15.3 |
Effective tax rate |  |  |  |  | 24.1 | % |  | 7.5 | %

The United States enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in December 2017, which requires companies to capitalize all of their R&D costs, including software development costs, incurred in tax years beginning after December 31, 2021. Beginning in fiscal 2022, we must capitalize and amortize R&D costs over five years for domestic research and 15 years for international research rather than expensing these costs as incurred. If the United States doesn’t repeal the law or defer the effective date of the law in the future, then we expect our fiscal 2022 effective tax rate and our cash tax payments to increase significantly as compared to fiscal 2021. We also expect to recognize increases to our deferred tax assets as we begin to capitalize domestic research costs.
Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended April 2, 2022 was primarily attributable to federal, state and foreign income taxes on our anticipated fiscal 2022 income, partially offset by the tax benefit of $24.3 million related to stock-based compensation that vested or was exercised during the period. Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended April 2, 2022, reflected the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which requires the capitalization and amortization of R&D costs incurred after December 31, 2021.
Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended April 3, 2021 was primarily attributable to federal, state and foreign income taxes on our anticipated fiscal 2021 income, partially offset by the tax benefit of $29.0 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021, related to stock-based compensation that vested or was exercised during the period.
Our future effective tax rates may also be materially impacted by tax amounts associated with our foreign earnings at rates different from the United States federal statutory rate, research credits, the tax impact of stock-based compensation, accounting for uncertain tax positions, business combinations, closure of statutes of limitations or settlement of tax audits, changes in valuation allowance and changes in tax law. A significant amount of our foreign earnings is generated by our subsidiaries organized in Ireland and Hungary. Our future effective tax rates may be adversely affected if our earnings were to be lower in countries where we have lower statutory tax rates. We currently expect that our fiscal 2022 effective tax rate will be approximately 28%. We expect that our quarterly effective tax rates will vary from our fiscal 2022 effective tax rate as a result of recognizing the income tax effects of stock-based awards in the quarterly periods that the awards vest or are settled and other items that we cannot anticipate. For additional discussion about how our effective tax rate could be affected by various risks, see Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

| As of |  |
| April 2, 2022 |  | January 1, 2022 |  | Change
| (In millions)
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 1,134.8 |  |  | $ | 1,088.9 |  |  | $ | 45.9 |
Net working capital | 774.1 |  |  | 744.5 |  |  | 29.6 |

Cash and Cash Equivalents
As of both April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of approximately $1.1 billion of cash and cash equivalents.
Our primary sources of cash and cash equivalents during the three months ended April 2, 2022 were cash generated from operations and proceeds from the issuance of common stock resulting from stock purchases under our employee stock purchase plan and stock options exercised during the period.
Our primary uses of cash and cash equivalents during the three months ended April 2, 2022 were payments related to employee salaries and benefits, operating expenses, repurchases of our common stock, payment of employee taxes on vesting of restricted stock, and purchases of property, plant and equipment.
Approximately 63% of our cash and cash equivalents were held by our foreign subsidiaries as of April 2, 2022. Our cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries may vary from period to period due to the timing of collections and repatriation of foreign earnings. We expect that current cash and cash equivalent balances and cash flows that are generated from operations and financing activities will be sufficient to meet the needs of our domestic and international operating activities and other capital and liquidity requirements, including acquisitions and share repurchases, for at least the next 12 months and thereafter for the foreseeable future.
Net Working Capital
Net working capital is comprised of current assets less current liabilities, as shown on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The increase in our net working capital as of April 2, 2022, as compared to January 1, 2022, is primarily due to the timing of cash receipts from customers and disbursements made to vendors.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities

| Three Months Ended |  |
| April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021 |  | Change
| (In millions)
Cash provided by operating activities | $ | 336.6 |  |  | $ | 208.4 |  |  | $ | 128.2 |

Cash flows from operating activities include net income, adjusted for certain non-cash items, as well as changes in the balances of certain assets and liabilities. Our cash flows provided by operating activities are significantly influenced by business levels and the payment terms set forth in our customer agreements. The increase in cash flows from operating activities for the three months ended April 2, 2022, as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2021, was primarily due to improved results from operations and timing of cash receipts from customers and disbursements made to vendors.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities

| Three Months Ended |  |
| April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021 |  | Change
| (In millions)
Cash used for investing activities | $ | (19.9) |  |  | $ | (206.2) |  |  | $ | 186.3 |

Cash used for investing activities decreased during the three months ended April 2, 2022, as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2021, primarily due to a decrease in payments for business combinations. We expect to continue our investing activities, including purchasing property, plant and equipment, purchasing intangible assets, business combinations, purchasing software licenses, and making strategic investments.
24

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

| Three Months Ended |  |
| April 2, 2022 |  | April 3, 2021 |  | Change
| (In millions)
Cash used for financing activities | $ | (260.7) |  |  | $ | (182.3) |  |  | $ | (78.4) |

Cash flows used for financing activities increased during the three months ended April 2, 2022, as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2021, primarily due to an increase in payments for repurchases of our common stock and employee taxes on vesting of restricted stock.
Other Factors Affecting Liquidity and Capital Resources
Stock Repurchase Program
In August 2021, our Board of Directors increased the prior authorization to repurchase shares of our common stock by authorizing an additional $1 billion. The actual timing and amount of repurchases are subject to business and market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, stock price, acquisition opportunities and other factors. As of April 2, 2022, approximately $877 million of the share repurchase authorization remained available to repurchase shares of our common stock. See Part II, Item 2, “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds” for additional information on share repurchases.
Revolving Credit Facility
In June 2021, we 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 “2021 Credit Facility”). The 2021 Credit Facility provides for borrowings up to $700.0 million, with the right to request increased capacity up to an additional $350.0 million upon receipt of lender commitments, for total maximum borrowings of $1.05 billion. The 2021 Credit Facility expires on June 30, 2026. Any outstanding loans drawn under the 2021 Credit Facility are due at maturity on June 30, 2026, subject to an option to extend the maturity date. Outstanding borrowings may be repaid at any time prior to maturity. As of April 2, 2022, there were no borrowings outstanding under the 2021 Credit Facility, and we were in compliance with all financial covenants associated with such credit facility.
2024 Notes
In October 2014, we issued $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.375% Senior Notes due October 15, 2024 (the “2024 Notes”). We received net proceeds of $342.4 million from the issuance of the 2024 Notes, net of a discount of $1.4 million and issuance costs of $6.2 million. Interest is payable in cash semi-annually. The 2024 Notes are unsecured and rank equal in right of payment to all of our existing and future senior indebtedness. As of April 2, 2022, we were in compliance with all covenants associated with the 2024 Notes.
For additional information relating to our debt arrangements, see Note 4 in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.
Other Liquidity Requirements
During the three months ended April 2, 2022, there were no material changes to our other liquidity requirements as reported in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Foreign Currency Risk
A material portion of our revenue, expenses and business activities are transacted in the United States dollar (“U.S. dollar”). In certain foreign countries where we price our products and services in U.S. dollars, a decrease in value of the local currency relative to the U.S. dollar results in an increase in the prices for our products and services compared to those products of our competitors that are priced in local currency. This could result in our prices being uncompetitive in certain markets.
In certain countries where we may invoice customers in the local currency our revenues benefit from a weaker dollar and are adversely affected by a stronger dollar. The opposite impact occurs in countries where we record expenses in local currencies. In those cases, our costs and expenses benefit from a stronger dollar and are adversely affected by a weaker dollar. The fluctuations in our operating expenses outside the United States resulting from volatility in foreign exchange rates are not generally moderated by corresponding fluctuations in revenues from existing contracts.
25

We enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to protect against currency exchange risks associated with existing assets and liabilities. A foreign currency forward exchange contract acts as a hedge by increasing in value when underlying assets decrease in value or underlying liabilities increase in value due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Conversely, a foreign currency forward exchange contract decreases in value when underlying assets increase in value or underlying liabilities decrease in value due to changes in foreign exchange rates. These forward contracts are not designated as accounting hedges, so the unrealized gains and losses are recognized in other income, net, in advance of the actual foreign currency cash flows with the fair value of these forward contracts being recorded as accrued liabilities or other current assets.
We do not use forward contracts for trading purposes. Our forward contracts generally have maturities of 90 days or less. We enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts based on estimated future asset and liability exposures, and the effectiveness of our hedging program depends on our ability to estimate these future asset and liability exposures. Recognized gains and losses with respect to our current hedging activities will ultimately depend on how accurately we are able to match the amount of foreign currency forward exchange contracts with actual underlying asset and liability exposures.
The following table provides information about our foreign currency forward exchange contracts as of April 2, 2022. The information is provided in U.S. dollar equivalent amounts. The table presents the notional amounts, at contract exchange rates, and the weighted average contractual foreign currency exchange rates expressed as units of the foreign currency per U.S. dollar, which in some cases may not be the market convention for quoting a particular currency. All of these forward contracts mature before or during May, 2022.

| Notional Principal |  | Weighted Average Contract Rate
| (In millions) |  |
Forward Contracts: |  |  |
European Union euro | $ | 156.1 |  |  | 0.88 |
British pound | 99.5 |  |  | 0.74 |
Israeli shekel | 89.0 |  |  | 3.23 |
Japanese yen | 62.0 |  |  | 116.94 |
Swedish krona | 33.1 |  |  | 9.46 |
Indian rupee | 23.7 |  |  | 76.26 |
Canadian dollar | 14.3 |  |  | 1.27 |
Taiwan dollar | 6.5 |  |  | 28.28
Chinese renminbi | 4.0 |  |  | 6.37
Other | 6.7 |  |  | N/A
Total | $ | 494.9 |  |  |
Estimated fair value | $ | (7.6) |  |  |

We actively monitor our foreign currency risks, but our foreign currency hedging activities may not substantially offset the impact of fluctuations in currency exchange rates on our results of operations, cash flows and financial position.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our portfolio of cash and cash equivalents and balances outstanding on our revolving credit facility, if any. We are exposed to interest rate fluctuations in many of the world’s leading industrialized countries, but our interest income and expense is most sensitive to fluctuations in the general level of United States interest rates. In this regard, changes in United States interest rates affect the interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents and the costs associated with foreign currency hedges.
All highly liquid securities with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of our interest-bearing instruments approximated fair value as of April 2, 2022.
Interest rates under our revolving credit facility are variable, so interest expense could be adversely affected by changes in interest rates, particularly for periods when we maintain a balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility. Interest rates for our revolving credit facility can fluctuate based on changes in market interest rates and in an interest rate margin that varies based on our consolidated leverage ratio. As of April 2, 2022, there were no borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility. For an additional description of the revolving credit facility, see Note 4 in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.

Equity Price Risk
Equity Investments
We have a portfolio of equity investments that includes marketable equity securities and non-marketable investments. Our equity investments are made primarily in connection with our strategic investment program. Under our strategic investment program, from time to time, we make cash investments in companies with technologies that are potentially of strategic importance to us.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of April 2, 2022.
The evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures included a review of our processes and the effect on the information generated for use in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In the course of this evaluation, we sought to identify any material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures, to determine whether we had identified any acts of fraud involving personnel who have a significant role in our disclosure controls and procedures, and to confirm that any necessary corrective action, including process improvements, was taken. This type of evaluation is done every fiscal quarter so that our conclusions concerning the effectiveness of these controls can be reported in our periodic reports filed with the SEC. The overall goals of these evaluation activities are to monitor our disclosure controls and procedures and to make modifications as necessary. We intend to maintain these disclosure controls and procedures, modifying them as circumstances warrant.
Based on their evaluation as of April 2, 2022, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2022 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. Internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of internal control are met. Further, the design of internal control must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of the control must be considered relative to their costs. While our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance of their effectiveness, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Cadence, have been detected.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we are involved in various disputes and legal proceedings 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. At least quarterly, we review the status of each significant matter and assess 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, we accrue 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 our judgments using the best information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, we reassess the potential liability related to pending claims and legal proceedings and may revise estimates.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described in the “Risk Factors” section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022, that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity, revenue, growth, prospects, demand, reputation, and the trading price of our common stock, and make an investment in us speculative or risky. There have been no material changes to our risk factors since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022. The risk factors summarized in our Annual Report on Form 10-K do not include all of the risks that we face, and there may be additional risks or uncertainties that are currently unknown or not believed to be material that occur or become material.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
In August 2021, our Board of Directors increased the prior authorization to repurchase shares of our common stock by authorizing an additional $1 billion. The actual timing and amount of repurchases are subject to business and market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, stock price, acquisition opportunities and other factors. As of April 2, 2022, approximately $877 million of the share repurchase authorization remained available to repurchase shares of our common stock.
The following table presents repurchases made under our current authorization and shares surrendered by employees to satisfy income tax withholding obligations during the three months ended April 2, 2022:
