Pyles will become the company's new chief financial officer,

FP&A and mergers and acquisitions, Rachel has the right blend
of experience and skills to ensure our financial foundation remains
strong while leading our transition as we plan to combine with
Synopsys next year."

thanks to our deep and broad product portfolio and our longstanding
customer relationships," Pyles said. "I am excited and honored to
