Explanatory Note
This current report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) amends the current report on Form 8-K filed by Synopsys, Inc. (“Synopsys”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 12, 2025 (the “Original 8-K”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to update the disclosure under “Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” of the Original 8-K to report certain updates to estimates of pre-tax charges to the Synopsys GAAP financial results under its restructuring plan that was approved by the Board of Directors of Synopsys (the “Board”) on November 9, 2025 (the “Restructuring Plan”). No other changes are being made to the Original 8-K.
Item 2.05
Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On August 21, 2026, the Board approved updated estimates related to the Restructuring Plan that were previously disclosed in the Original 8-K to reflect additional restructuring costs. Synopsys now estimates that it will recognize pre-tax charges to its GAAP financial results ranging from $425 million to $500 million, consisting primarily of severance and other one-time termination benefits, and other costs such as certain site closures as part of its global site strategy.
This Item 2.05 includes certain forward-looking statements with respect to the size and scope of the restructuring, and the approximate amount and expected timing of the related charges. These statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause Synopsys’ actual results, time frames or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. Such risks, uncertainties and factors include but are not limited to, Synopsys’ ability to implement the restructuring in various jurisdictions, possible changes in the size, components and timing of the expected costs and charges, Synopsys’ ability to achieve the benefits of the announced restructuring, and the risks more fully described in filings Synopsys makes with the SEC from time to time, including in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” in Synopsys’ latest Annual Report on Form 10-K and in Synopsys’ latest Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The information provided herein is as of August 26, 2026. Synopsys undertakes no duty to, and does not intend to, update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless required by law.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, hereunto duly authorized.
