Cadence Design Systems reported Q3 FY2026 revenue of $1.63 billion, up 22% year over year, with diluted EPS of $1.05 and net income of $289.7 million. Nine-month revenue reached $4.69 billion (+22%) with net income of $992.5 million. The quarter reflects the integration of the roughly $3.0 billion acquisition of Hexagon's design and engineering business completed in February 2026, which expanded the System Design and Analysis portfolio and lifted goodwill to $4.9 billion. Contracted but unsatisfied performance obligations stand at $8.2 billion.
