We resurvey select companies during the second quarter of the following<br />

year to verify final armual results and determine the <strong>CAE</strong><br />

Granularity. The infonnation in this document is based upon these<br />

final market share data.<br />

Data supplied by vendors are evaluated against infonnation drawn<br />

from many sources, including the following:<br />

• Revenue published by major industry participants<br />

• Estimates made by knowledgeable and reliable industry<br />

spokespersoi\s<br />

• Goveniment data or trade association data<br />

• Published product literature and price lists<br />

• Annual reports, SEC documents, credit reports<br />

• Company publications and press releases<br />

• Reports form financial analysts<br />

• Reseller and supplier reports and reports from a vendor's<br />

competitors<br />

In addition, Dataquest sums vendor revenue across other industries<br />

covered by Dataquest to make sure that revenue is not credited<br />

twice and checks with multiple sources at one company to crosscheck<br />

data on that company.<br />

We believe that the estimates presented here are the most accurate<br />

and meaningful generally available today. Dataquest's EDA market<br />

numbers are often higher than those reported by other sources. We<br />

survey worldwide, which involves more vendors, higher total market<br />

revenue, lower market share per vendor, and a more accurate<br />

market picture—particularly useful when comparing regions or<br />

applications.<br />
