Since the announcement of merger with Synopsys in Jan 2024, Ansys revenue grew 12% in CY24 to $2.5B at 89% GM and 28.2% OPM. 50% of revenue from software licenses. The deal increases their TAM by 1.5x to $28B by CY28 (11% CAGR from CY23 base). Ansys has 30% exposure to semi/high-tech while SNPS has 85%. All about system simulation. The companies shredded around $200M business to appease regulators. Cadence, on the other hand, draws 12% of its revenue from system simulation.

China has delayed approval of the US$35 billion Synopsys purchase of Ansys, the FT reports, citing unnamed sources, adding approval had been expected by end-June, and most major governments have signed off on the deal. US tariffs and export controls have derailed China’s approval process. $Synopsys(SNPS.US) $ANSYS(ANSS.US) #semiconductors

While Synopsys noted in its recent earnings call that it will be able to close the Ansys merger in 1H25, the merger has huge termination fee. $1.5B by Synopsys or $950M by Ansys. So far the UK CMA, EC, Japan and Korea approved. China, Taiwan FTC and US FTC pending. Tariff war adds uncertainty, obviously.
