"We continued our strong operational execution and business momentum in Q2. Customers continue investing in Synopsys solutions to maximize their R&D and power their future innovations for this era of pervasive intelligence," said Sassine Ghazi, president and CEO of Synopsys. "We expect our planned acquisition of Ansys, which was approved today by Ansys shareholders, to further our mission of empowering technology innovators everywhere with essential silicon to systems design solutions."
"Synopsys' strong Q2 results were driven by our team's relentless focus on execution, our leading technology that is mission-critical to customers, and our resilient business model," said Shelagh Glaser, Synopsys CFO. "We remain confident in our business, and as a result, we are again raising our full-year targets for revenue and non-GAAP EPS."
