Cadence Design Systems Inc., common-size consolidated balance sheet: assets (quarterly data)

The asset composition demonstrates a significant structural shift over the analyzed period, characterized by an increasing concentration of long-term intangible assets and a volatile liquidity profile.
- Liquidity and Current Asset Trends
- Current assets generally fluctuated between 30% and 46% of total assets. A pronounced increase in cash and cash equivalents is observed starting in September 2024, where the ratio climbed from approximately 14.66% to a sustained plateau near 30% through December 2025. This trend reversed sharply in March 2026, with cash falling to 11.63% and total current assets dropping to 26.29%, indicating a substantial reallocation of liquid capital.
- Intangible Asset Growth
- A consistent upward trend is evident in the proportion of the balance sheet allocated to goodwill and acquired intangibles. Goodwill increased from 22.82% in April 2021 to 40.75% by March 2026. Acquired intangibles followed a similar trajectory, rising from 6.62% to 15.98%. The concurrent spike in both metrics during the final reporting period suggests a significant acquisition event that substantially expanded the company's non-physical asset base.
- Fixed and Other Long-term Asset Contraction
- Property, plant, and equipment, net, exhibited a gradual decline from 7.63% to 4.44% of total assets. A more aggressive downward trend is observed in deferred tax assets, which fell from 18.24% in April 2021 to 6.97% by March 2026. Other assets also decreased steadily from 10.94% to 5.58%, indicating that these components are becoming less significant relative to the total asset base.
- Aggregate Asset Distribution
- The overall balance sheet structure shifted toward long-term assets. While long-term assets typically ranged between 54% and 69% for the majority of the period, they reached a peak of 73.71% in March 2026. This transition reflects a strategic pivot from a more liquid position toward a capital structure dominated by intangible assets and goodwill.
