Peer overview

SNPS is the first available peer comparator.

Synopsys is the closest public operating peer in EDA/IP, and Cadence’s 2025 10-K specifically lists Synopsys and Ansys, acquired by Synopsys, among key competitors. Cadence’s record backlog and AI-linked demand support the premium narrative, but the peer comparison keeps pressure on execution, technology breadth, and margin delivery. [#10-K-2026-02-19]
