Cherney<\/p>\n<p>(Reuters) &#8211; Chip design software company Synopsys (NASDAQ:) on Wednesday named 25-year-veteran Sassine Ghazi as its CEO and president, and forecast better-than-expected fourth-quarter results as artificial intelligence (AI) innovations fuel demand for custom semiconductor design.<\/p>\n<p>The company said Ghazi, who brings with him decades of chip design and applications engineering experience, will succeed Aart de Geus next January. Geus, co-founder of Synopsys, will move to the role of executive chair.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI&#8217;ve been with the company for 25 years,\u201d Ghazi said. \u201cSo the last three years has been fairly planned discussion with Aart and the board regarding the transition.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Investors should be comfortable and confident with Ghazi, said Baird Equity Research, noting he has already helped make Synopsys a faster-growing and more profitable company.<\/p>\n<p>Synopsis shares were up 2.3% in extended trading. <\/p>\n<p>Intel (NASDAQ:) and Synopsys on Monday announced a deal &#8211; an important step for Intel&#8217;s contract manufacturing business as it strives to become a viable alternative to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co or Samsung Electronics (OTC:) Co. As part of the deal, Synopsys will develop intellectual property for Intel&#8217;s advanced manufacturing processes. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe moment you&#8217;re in a foundry business, you really need an IP portfolio to enable your customers to come into your foundry business, Ghazi said. <\/p>\n<p>Synopsys forecast fourth-quarter adjusted earnings per share of $3.01 to $3.06, above analysts&#8217; average estimate of $2.91, according to Refinitiv data.<\/p>\n<p>Revenue expectations of $1.57 billion to $1.60 billion were also better than analysts&#8217; average estimate of $1.57 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The company reported revenue of $1.49 billion in the third quarter ended July 31, above estimate of $1.48 billion. Adjusted profit per share of $2.88 also beat estimates of $2.74.<\/p>\n<p>Revenue from its Design Automation unit jumped about 23% to $1 billion.
