Earnings per share increased 29% over prior year to $.81 per share for the quarter.

With the expiration of the R&D tax credit at the end of 2014, Cadence is accruing estimated taxes at a rate assuming the current tax laws remain in effect for all of 2015. If the R&D tax credit were to be extended by Congress and reinstated to January 1, 2015, Cadence estimates its Earnings /share would be $.05/share higher in the first 3 months of the year.
“2015 is off to a good start compared to first quarter of 2014.” said Ken Cleveland, CFO. “First quarter was slightly below our record revenue quarter of $21.1M in fourth quarter of 2014.”
