Distress and optionality read
CDNS Altman Z-score needs a fuller balance sheet.
TECHi computes a non-financial-company Altman-style score from working capital, retained earnings, EBIT, market value, liabilities, revenue, and assets. It is not a bankruptcy prediction, but it gives pro readers a fast stress screen that most quote pages do not show beside live valuation metrics.
- Working capital
- $1.02B
- Current assets minus current liabilities
Valuation read
CDNS trades at 64.86× trailing earnings.
A trailing P/E above 30 means the market is paying up for CDNS. That premium has to be earned with above-average revenue or earnings growth — pair this with the forward P/E (—) and the PEG ratio (—) before forming a view.

Margin profile
Profitability read
CDNS converts 21.2% of revenue into net income.
Net margins above 20% are the hallmark of pricing-power businesses — software, brands, and franchises. Watch for trend, not just level: a falling margin in this band still erodes the multiple.
