1 US$ in thousands
- Net Income (Loss) Attributed to Synopsys
 - The net income demonstrated a significant upward trajectory over the period from 2005 to 2024. Beginning with a loss of approximately 15.5 million USD in 2005, the company quickly transitioned to positive earnings by 2006, then showed continuous growth with fluctuations in magnitude. Notable increases occurred between 2017 and 2018, and from 2022 onward, peaking at over 2.26 billion USD in 2024. Despite some variability, the overall trend reflects sustained profitability expansion.
 - Total Synopsys Stockholders’ Equity
 - Stockholders' equity consistently increased over the examined years, starting from approximately 1.22 billion USD in 2005 to nearly 9 billion USD in 2024. The growth appeared steady, with gradual increments year-over-year, indicating retained earnings and potentially additional equity financing or asset appreciation contributing to the expanding equity base. This solid increase supports enhanced financial stability and shareholder value over time.
 - Return on Equity (ROE)
 - ROE exhibited substantial improvement across the dataset. Initially negative at -1.27% in 2005, ROE climbed into positive territory by 2006 and maintained an oscillating but generally ascending path through the years. After moderate stability between 2007 and 2017, a marked uptrend appeared from 2018 forward, with ROE reaching a peak of 25.17% in 2024. This suggests improving efficiency in generating profits from shareholders’ equity and indicates strengthening operational performance and capital utilization.
 - Summary of Trends and Insights
 - Analysis reveals a robust overall financial growth pattern, characterized by growing profitability, steadily increasing shareholder equity, and enhanced return on equity. The surge in net income, especially pronounced in the most recent years, aligns with higher ROE figures, underscoring operational improvements and effective use of capital resources. The steady equity growth alongside profit increases suggests a solid balance sheet foundation supporting this expansion. These trends collectively imply increasing shareholder value and operational strength over the nearly two-decade period.
