In addition to using GAAP results in evaluating Cadence's business, management believes it is useful to measure results using a non-GAAP measure of net income, which excludes, as applicable, amortization of intangible assets and deferred compensation, in-process research and development charges, integration and other acquisition-related expenses, executive severance payments, restructuring charges and equity in losses (income) from investments. Non-GAAP net income is adjusted by the amount of additional taxes or tax benefit that the company would accrue if it used non-GAAP results instead of GAAP results to calculate the company's tax liability. See "GAAP to non-GAAP Reconciliation" below for further information on the non-GAAP measure.
Using this non-GAAP measure, net income in the fourth quarter 2005 was $93 million, or $0.29 per share, on a diluted basis as compared to $80 million, or $0.26 per share, on a diluted basis in the same period in 2004. For the fiscal year 2005, non-GAAP net income was $258 million, or $0.83 per share, compared to $201 million and $0.66 per share in 2004.
"We had a terrific fourth quarter and finished 2005 with good momentum. Our product portfolio is very competitive, our new initiatives such as kits and segmentation are starting to ramp, and our enterprise approach is winning with customers," said Bill Porter, senior vice president and chief financial officer.
"Throughout 2005 we delivered on our strategy to grow our core business through technology innovation, to expand into adjacencies such as verification and manufacturability, and to pursue pricing and business models for value," said Mike Fister, president and CEO of Cadence Design Systems, Inc. "With our success this past year, we've laid the groundwork for growth and market expansion in 2006 and beyond."
The following statements are based on current expectations. These statements are forward looking, and actual results may differ materially. These statements do not include the impact of any mergers, acquisitions or other business combinations completed after Dec. 31, 2005.

The statements contained above regarding the company's fourth quarter 2005 results, those contained in the Business Outlook section above and the statements by Mike Fister and Bill Porter include forward-looking statements based on current expectations or beliefs, as well as a number of preliminary assumptions about future events that are subject to factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are not a guarantee of future performance and are subject to a number of uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside Cadence's control, including, among others: Cadence's ability to compete successfully in the design automation product and the commercial electronic design and methodology services industries; the mix of products and services sold and the timing of significant orders for its products; economic uncertainty; fluctuations in rates of exchange between the U.S. dollar and the currencies of other countries in which Cadence does business; and the acquisition of other companies or the failure to successfully integrate those it acquires.
For a detailed discussion of these and other cautionary statements, please refer to the company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These include the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Jan. 1, 2005, and the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended Oct. 1, 2005.
GAAP to non-GAAP Reconciliation
Cadence management evaluates and makes operating decisions using various operating measures. These measures are generally based on the revenues of its product, maintenance and services business operations and certain costs of those operations, such as cost of revenues, research and development, sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses. One such measure is non-GAAP net income (loss), which is a non-GAAP financial measure under Section 101 of Regulation G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. This measure consists of GAAP net income (loss) excluding, as applicable, amortization of intangible assets and deferred compensation, in-process research and development charges, integration and other acquisition-related expenses, restructuring charges (severance and benefits, excess facilities and asset-related restructuring charges), executive severance payments and equity in losses (income) from investments. Intangible assets consist primarily of purchased technology, backlog, patents, trademarks, distribution rights, customer contracts and related relationships and non-compete agreements. Non-GAAP net income (loss) is adjusted by the amount of additional taxes or tax benefit that the company would accrue if it used non-GAAP results instead of GAAP results to calculate the company's tax liability.
Management believes it is useful in measuring Cadence's operations to exclude amortization of intangibles, deferred compensation, in-process research and development and acquisition-related expenses because these costs are primarily fixed at the time of an acquisition and generally cannot be changed by management in the short term. Management believes that it also is useful to exclude restructuring costs. Cadence has dramatically reduced the size of its design services business and portions of its product and maintenance businesses over the past several years. As a result, in 2001, 2002 and 2003, Cadence's GAAP statements of operations have included significant charges relating to such restructurings. Cadence believes that in measuring its operations it is useful to exclude such restructuring costs because the company's level of restructuring activities is expected to significantly decrease in the foreseeable future. Management also believes it is useful to exclude the equity in losses (income) from investments and investment write-downs, as these items are not part of the company's direct cost of operations. Rather, these are non-operating items that are included in other income (expense) and are part of the company's investment activities.
Management believes that non-GAAP net income (loss) provides useful supplemental information to management and investors regarding the performance of the company's business operations and facilitates comparisons to our historical operating results. Management also uses this information internally for forecasting and budgeting. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors and potential investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures contained within this press release with their most directly comparable GAAP financial results.
The following tables reconcile the specific items excluded from GAAP in the calculation of non-GAAP net income for the periods shown below:

Investors are encouraged to look at GAAP results as the best measure of financial performance. For example, amortization of intangibles or amortization of deferred compensation or in-process technology are important to consider because they may represent initial expenditures that under GAAP are reported across future fiscal periods. Likewise, deferred compensation expense is an obligation of the company that should be considered. Restructuring charges can be triggered by acquisitions or product adjustments as well as overall company performance within a given business environment. All of these metrics are important to financial performance generally.
Though Cadence management finds its non-GAAP measure is useful in evaluating the performance of Cadence's business, its reliance on this measure is limited because items excluded from such measures often have a material effect on Cadence's earnings and earnings per share calculated in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, Cadence management typically uses its non-GAAP earnings and earnings per share measures, in conjunction with GAAP earnings and earnings per share measures, to address these limitations.
Cadence believes that presenting its non-GAAP measure of earnings and earnings per share provides investors with an additional tool for evaluating the performance of the company's business, which management uses in its own evaluation of performance, and an additional base line for assessing the future earnings potential of the company. While the GAAP results are more complete, the company prefers to allow investors to have this supplemental measure since, with reconciliation to GAAP, it may provide additional insight into our financial results.
Cadence expects that its corporate representatives will meet privately during the quarter with investors, the media, investment analysts and others. At these meetings, Cadence may reiterate the Business Outlook published in this press release. At the same time, Cadence will keep this press release, including the outlook, publicly available on its Web site.
Prior to the start of the Quiet Period (described below), the public may continue to rely on the Business Outlook contained herein as still being Cadence's current expectations on matters covered unless Cadence publishes a notice stating otherwise.
Beginning Mar. 17, 2006, Cadence will observe a "Quiet Period" during which the Business Outlook as provided in this press release and the company's most recent annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly report on Form 10-Q no longer constitute the company's current expectations. During the Quiet Period, the Business Outlook in these documents should be considered to be historical, speaking as of prior to the Quiet Period only and not subject to update by the company. During the Quiet Period, Cadence representatives will not comment on Cadence's business outlook or its financial results or expectations. The Quiet Period will extend until the day when Cadence's First Quarter 2006 Earnings Release is published, which is currently scheduled for Apr. 26, 2006.
