Recent Disclosures (7)

Nov 17, 2025low
Cadence Design Systems — Officer/Director Change Disclosed
Filing reports an officer or director change (Item 5.02) with supporting exhibits (Item 9.01). PM relevance depends on the role: a CEO/CFO move is material, while board-level or junior-officer turnover is typically not. Full filing body not analyzed; description inferred from form + item codes.

Notes

Cadence is one of the 'Big Three' EDA vendors alongside Synopsys and Siemens EDA, forming a near-oligopoly essential to all advanced chip design. Growth is driven by AI/HPC design complexity and expansion into system design analysis (Ansys-overlapping domains via tools like Clarity and Celsius). US export controls on EDA tools to China are a key ongoing risk.

Cadence Design Systems — FY2025 Annual Report (10-K)

Cadence's FY2025 10-K should detail full-year EDA and IP revenue, AI-driven design tool demand, backlog, and exposure to Asian foundry/semis customers (TSMC, Samsung, SK Hynix). Full filing body not analyzed; description inferred from form + item codes. PM-relevant for read-across on AI chip design spend, semicap capex cycles, and Korea/Taiwan customer concentration.

Feb 23, 2026medium

Cadence Design Systems — Unregistered Equity Issuance Disclosed

Cadence reported an unregistered sale of equity securities under Item 3.02, typically tied to M&A consideration, private placements, or convertible-note settlements rather than a public raise. Full filing body not analyzed; description inferred from form + item codes. PMs should check dilution magnitude and whether the issuance funds an acquisition or strategic investment relevant to EDA/semiconductor design tooling.

Cadence Design Systems — Q1 Earnings Release

Filing flagged Item 2.02 (results of operations) with supporting Item 9.01 exhibits, indicating a quarterly earnings release likely covering revenue, EPS, bookings/backlog, and updated full-year guidance. As a key EDA vendor to TSMC, Samsung, and SK hynix, Cadence's print and outlook are a leading read on semiconductor design activity and capex appetite across KR/TW. Full filing body not analyzed; description inferred from form + item codes.

Cadence Design Systems — Q1 FY26 10-Q Quarterly Report

Cadence filed its Q1 FY26 10-Q covering the quarter ended 2026-03-31, which should detail EDA/IP revenue mix, backlog, China exposure, and AI-design tooling traction relevant to KR/TW foundry and fabless customers.

Cadence — Officer/Director Changes and Annual Meeting Vote Results

Filing reports board/officer changes (Item 5.02) alongside routine annual meeting vote outcomes (Item 5.07). Full filing body not analyzed; description inferred from form + item codes. PM relevance is low unless the personnel change involves the CEO or CFO — worth a quick check of who left or joined, but typically not a thesis-moving event for an EDA leader like CDNS.
