The EDA Consortium (EDAC) Market Statistics Service (MSS) today announced that the Electronic Design Automation (EDA) industry revenue for Q3 2010 was $1307.0 million, an 11.9 percent increase compared to $1167.9 million in Q3 2009. Sequential EDA revenue for Q3 increased 6.9 percent, while the four-quarters moving average, which compares the most recent four quarters to the prior four quarters, increased by 4.9 percent.
“Overall third quarter results represent a significant increase compared to Q3 2009, with double digit increases in CAE, IC Physical Design & Verification, and SIP,” said Wally Rhines, EDAC chair and chairman and CEO of Mentor Graphics. “Geographically, the Americas, Europe/Middle East/Africa, and Asia/Pacific regions all had double digit increases relative to Q3 2009. The Americas, Japan, and the Asia/Pacific region also increased sequentially.”
Companies that were tracked employed 26,474 professionals in Q3 2010, an increase of 1.9 percent compared to Q2 2010, and up 2.1 percent from the 25,942 employed in Q3 2009.
