Here are the DEF 14A proxy statements from Synopsys Inc (SNPS) in our archive over the last 12 months, newest first, and each one links through to the document itself with the summary and the scores our analysis gives it.
A DEF 14A covers the proxy statement, with executive pay and the shareholder votes, so if you follow SNPS and want that one kind of document rather than the whole filing history, this is the page to keep. The company's other filings, of every form, are on the full SNPS filings page.
Synopsys is asking stockholders to vote at its April 16, 2026 virtual annual meeting on five items, including electing ten directors, approving an amended and restated equity incentive plan, an advisory say-on-pay vote, ratifying KPMG as auditor, and a stockholder written-consent proposal the Board opposes.
The company highlights completion of its July 2025 acquisition of Ansys, which it says transformed Synopsys from an electronic design automation leader into a broader engineering solutions provider across industries such as automotive, aerospace, industrial and healthcare. Fiscal 2025 results included record revenue of $7.054 billion, approximately 15% year-over-year growth, GAAP operating margin of 13.0%, non-GAAP operating margin of 37.3%, operating cash flow of about $1.52 billion, free cash flow of about $1.35 billion, and backlog of $11.4 billion.
The proxy details board composition, committee responsibilities, risk oversight for areas such as cybersecurity and artificial intelligence, and executive and director compensation practices, emphasizing pay-for-performance, independent board leadership, and no increase to shares available under the equity plan while adding non-employee directors as eligible participants.
