“Through focus on innovation and execution, Cadence again delivered strong results for both the fourth quarter and fiscal 2016.

“Cadence continued to deliver consistent, predictable financial results in 2016 with operating cash flow generation a standout at $445 million, up 18 percent over 2015.” said Geoff Ribar, senior vice president and chief financial officer. “I am especially proud of the quality of our balance sheet. In the fourth quarter we completed our $1.2 billion stock repurchase program, cumulatively repurchasing 52 million shares representing approximately 18 percent of shares outstanding as of July 4, 2015. This week, we replaced our December 2012 senior credit facility, increasing our borrowing capacity and extending the term; and we maintain an investment grade rating for our outstanding public debt.”

On January 30, 2017, Cadence entered into a new $350 million five year senior unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of lenders, which replaces the December 2012 senior credit facility.
