1 Q1 2024 Calculation
Net profit margin = 100 × (Net income (loss) attributed to SynopsysQ1 2024 + Net income (loss) attributed to SynopsysQ4 2023 + Net income (loss) attributed to SynopsysQ3 2023 + Net income (loss) attributed to SynopsysQ2 2023) ÷ (RevenueQ1 2024 + RevenueQ4 2023 + RevenueQ3 2023 + RevenueQ2 2023)
= 100 × (449,112 + 349,190 + 336,252 + 272,910) ÷ (1,649,230 + 1,599,128 + 1,487,288 + 1,394,863) = 22.96%
