EDA DISCLOSURE MONITOR

Direct EDA evidence first; issuer context stays separate

Only an issuer-defined Design Automation segment is treated as direct EDA evidence. Company totals and broad software disclosures are context, never EDA revenue.

Semiconductor IP Open EDA API

Direct annual EDA disclosure

Unavailable means the issuer does not publish a standalone EDA revenue line. Missing is not zero.

SCOPE-AUDITED
FY2025 · REPORTED
$5.302B

Synopsys

Design Automation segment revenue

STANDALONE EDA
Not disclosed

Cadence

Cadence reports one operating segment; total company revenue must not be labeled EDA revenue.

STANDALONE EDA
Not disclosed

Siemens

Siemens EDA revenue is not separately disclosed. The broader software business is context only, never an EDA metric.

Latest issuer context — not EDA revenue

Company totals and the Siemens Digital Industries software business remain outside the direct EDA series.

Issuer result

EDA-company disclosure context — one indexed view

Each issuer is rebased independently to 100 at its first visible year. Synopsys is direct Design Automation segment evidence; Cadence and Siemens remain broader issuer context.

MIXED SCOPE · INDEXED SEPARATELY
Visual comparison only · each series keeps its issuer-defined perimeterNo FX conversion · no market-share claim

Scope before magnitude

A numeric context series never fills a missing EDA disclosure.

SynopsysDirect annual evidence: Design Automation segment

FY2025 includes Ansys after July. Quarterly company totals remain context only.

CadenceStandalone EDA revenue: not disclosed

Total company revenue includes software, hardware, IP, maintenance, and services.

SiemensStandalone Siemens EDA revenue: not disclosed

Digital Industries software includes PLM and other software and is never relabeled as Siemens EDA revenue.

Issuer context is not EDA market share. Unavailable standalone metrics remain unavailable and are never inferred from a broader perimeter.

Quarterly issuer results and annual filingsOnly validated issuer-defined scopes are published; unavailable standalone metrics remain unavailable.

Design-enablement milestones

Qualitative PDK and tool availability is kept separate from revenue, customer wins, tape-outs, and production.

OpenLight × Tower Semiconductor × CadenceOpenLight photonic PDK available in Cadence EDA tools

Tower PH18DA InP-on-silicon photonics. PDK availability and disclosed application capability are design-enablement evidence only. They do not establish a customer design win, tape-out, production, shipment, sales, or revenue.
