Synopsys Investors Face Dec. 30 Deadline to Seek Lead Role in Securities Class Action

Plaintiffs claim an AI‑first strategy undermined the Design IP unit, rendering prior statements misleading.

Overview

  • Multiple firms, including DJS Law Group, The Schall Law Firm, Faruqi & Faruqi, and Robbins LLP, are soliciting shareholders who bought SNPS between December 4, 2024 and September 9, 2025.
  • The complaints allege that prioritizing AI customers who require more customization deteriorated the economics of the Design IP business and made certain roadmap and resource choices unlikely to deliver intended results.
  • Notices point to September 9, 2025 results showing revenue of $1.740 billion versus $1.755–$1.785 billion guidance, net income of $242.5 million down 43% year over year, and Design IP revenue of $426.6 million down 7.7%, with guidance implying at least a 5% full‑year decline for Design IP.
  • Shares fell about 35.8% on September 10, 2025 after the disclosures about underperformance in the IP business.
  • The class has not been certified, and investors may move to be lead plaintiff by December 30, 2025 or remain absent class members, with eligibility for recovery not contingent on serving as lead.
