| EDA Industry Reports 3% Revenue Growth | | |
April 7, 2005 -- According to the EDA Consortium (EDAC)’s Market Statistics Service (MSS), the electronic design automation industry revenue for Q4 of 2004 was $1,078 million, a 3% increase over Q4 2003. For the full year 2004, revenue totaled a record $4,019 million, which was 3% more than $3911 million reported in 2003. Product and Maintenance revenue (excluding services) increased 3% over Q4 2003 and posted a record high quarter of $1,011 million revenue in Q4 2004.
“In 2004, The EDA industry crossed the $4 billion mark,” said Walden C. Rhines, chairman of the EDA Consortium (EDAC) and chairman and CEO of Mentor Graphics Corporation. “Every quarter saw consistent year over year growth for the whole industry, though the North American region, as well as the IC Physical Design & Verification segment, were both down for the year.”
Highlights
Revenue by Product Category
- EDA’s largest tool category, Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE), generated revenue of $523 million in Q4 2004, 9% more than the same period in 2003. CAE revenue for all of 2004 totaled $1,919 million, a 5% increase over 2003.
- IC Physical Design & Verification decreased 6% to $326 million in Q4 2004 over the same quarter in 2003. For the full year 2004, IC Physical Design & Verification revenue totaled $1,165 million, a 4% decrease over 2003.
- Revenue for Printed Circuit Board (PCB) and Multi-Chip Module (MCM) Layout totaled $91 million in Q4 2004, 9% greater than in Q4 2003. PCB and MCM Layout revenue totaled $341 million for all of 2004, 3% above 2003.
- The EDA industry’s Semiconductor Intellectual Property (SIP) revenue totaled $71 million in Q4 2004, 2% less than Q4 2003. For 2004, SIP revenue increased to $314 million (vs. $281 million in 2003) due in part to new company participation.

The EDA Consortium (EDAC)’s Market Statistics Service reports EDA industry revenue data quarterly and is available by annual subscription. Each quarterly report is published approximately three months after quarter close. MSS report data is segmented as follows: revenue type (product licenses and maintenance, services, and SIP), application (CAE, PCB/MCM Layout, and IC Physical Design and Verification), operating system (UNIX vs. Windows) and region (North America, Western Europe, Japan, and Rest of World), with many subcategories of detail provided. The report also tracks total employment of the reporting companies.
