Synopsys, Inc. announced the completion of its acquisition of Ansys on Thursday, July 17, 2025. The transaction, which was initially announced on January 16, 2024, combines leaders in silicon design, IP, and simulation and analysis. This finalizes the $35 billion cash-and-stock deal, marking a significant consolidation in the engineering software industry.
The acquisition positions Synopsys to win in an expanded $31 billion total addressable market (TAM), integrating Ansys' broad simulation and analysis portfolio with Synopsys' pioneering silicon design and IP solutions. The combined entity aims to enable customers to rapidly innovate AI-powered products, addressing the increasing complexity of modern technology development.
The completion of the merger follows a comprehensive regulatory approval process across multiple global jurisdictions, including conditional clearances from the European Commission, the UK Competition and Markets Authority, and China's market regulator. This event concludes Ansys' journey as an independent public company, transitioning its operations and technologies under the Synopsys umbrella.
