Other Income (Expense), Net
## Table 0 ##
The net increase in other income (expense) in fiscal 2012 as compared to fiscal 2011 was primarily due to an increase in gain on assets related to our deferred compensation plan, and an increase in premiums on hedge contracts included in other income (expense), net, partially offset by higher interest expense due to a term loan that we entered into in 2012.
The net decrease in other income (expense), net in fiscal 2011 as compared to fiscal 2010 was primarily due to a decrease in gain on assets related to our deferred compensation plan, a decrease in gains on sale of investments included other income (expense), net and lower interest rates.
This decrease was partially offset by foreign exchange fluctuations.
Income Taxes Our effective tax rates for fiscal 2012 and 2011 include tax benefits of settlements with the IRS of $15.9 million (for fiscal years 2010 through 2011), with Taiwan of $14.7M (net tax benefit resulting from the 2008 settlement being applied to other open fiscal years), with Hungary of $6.3 million (for fiscal years 2006 through 2010) in fiscal year 2012 and a settlement with the IRS of $32.8 million (for fiscal years 2006 through 2009) in fiscal 2011.
Without the impact of the settlements, the effective tax rate for fiscal 2012 and 2011 would have been 27.7% and 13.9%, respectively.
For further discussion of the provision for income taxes and settlements, see Note 10 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources Our sources of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are funds generated from our business operations and funds that may be drawn down under our credit facility.
As of October 31, 2012, we held an aggregate of $198.0 million in cash and cash equivalents in the United States and an aggregate of $502.4 million in our foreign subsidiaries.
Funds held in our foreign subsidiaries are generated from revenue outside North America.
At present, such foreign funds are considered to be indefinitely reinvested in foreign countries to the extent of indefinitely reinvested foreign earnings.
During the current year we primarily used our cash in foreign subsidiaries to fund our overseas acquisitions of SpringSoft and EVE.
In the event funds from foreign operations are needed to fund cash needs in the United States and if U. S.  taxes have not already been previously accrued, we would be required to accrue and pay additional U. S.  taxes in order to repatriate these funds.
The following sections discuss changes in our balance sheet and cash flows, and other commitments on our liquidity and capital resources during fiscal 2012.
SYNOPSYS, INC.  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—Continued The aggregate purchase price consideration was approximately US$417.0 million.
As of October 31, 2012, the total purchase consideration and the preliminary purchase price allocation were as follows:
## Table 1 ##
Goodwill of $247.5 million, which is generally not deductible for tax purposes, primarily resulted from the Company’s expectation of sales growth and cost synergies from the integration of SpringSoft’s technology and operations with the Company’s technology and operations.
Identifiable intangible assets, consisting primarily of technology, customer relationships, backlog and trademarks, were valued using the income method, and are being amortized over three to eight years.
Acquisition-related costs directly attributable to the business combination were $6.6 million for fiscal 2012 and were expensed as incurred in the consolidated statements of operations.
These costs consisted primarily of employee separation costs and professional services.
Fair Value of Equity Awards: Pursuant to the merger agreement, the Company assumed all the unvested outstanding stock options of SpringSoft upon the completion of the merger and the vested options were exchanged for cash in the merger.
On October 1, 2012, the date of the completion of the tender offer, the fair value of the awards to be assumed and exchanged was $9.9 million, calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
The Black-Scholes option-pricing model incorporates various subjective assumptions including expected volatility, expected term and risk-free interest rates.
The expected volatility was estimated by a combination of implied and historical stock price volatility of the options.
Non-controlling Interest: Non-controlling Interest represents the fair value of the 8.4% of outstanding SpringSoft shares that were not acquired during the tender offer process completed on October 1, 2012 and the fair value of the option awards that were to be assumed or exchanged for cash upon the follow-on merger.
The fair value of the Non-controlling Interest included as part of the aggregate purchase consideration was $42.8 million and is disclosed as a separate line in the October 31, 2012 consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity.
During the period between the completion of the tender offer and the end of the Company’s fiscal year on October 31, 2012, the Non-controlling Interest was adjusted by $0.5 million to reflect the Non-controlling Interest’s share of the operating loss of SpringSoft in that period.
As the amount is not significant, it has been included as part of other income (expense), net, in the consolidated statements of operations.
SYNOPSYS, INC.  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—Continued Acquisition of Magma Design Automation, Inc.  (Magma) On February 22, 2012, the Company acquired all outstanding shares of Magma, a chip design software provider, at a per-share price of $7.35.
Additionally, the Company assumed unvested restricted stock units (RSUs) and stock options, collectively called “equity awards.
” The aggregate purchase price was approximately $550.2 million.
This acquisition enables the Company to more rapidly meet the needs of leading-edge semiconductor designers for more sophisticated design tools.
As of October 31, 2012, the total purchase consideration and the preliminary purchase price allocation were as follows:
## Table 2 ##
Goodwill of $316.3 million, which is not deductible for tax purposes, primarily resulted from the Company’s expectation of sales growth and cost synergies from the integration of Magma’s technology and operations with the Company’s technology and operations.
Identifiable intangible assets, consisting primarily of technology, customer relationships, backlog and trademarks, were valued using the income method, and are being amortized over three to ten years.
Acquisition-related costs directly attributable to the business combination totaling $33.5 million for fiscal 2012 were expensed as incurred in the consolidated statements of operations and consist primarily of employee separation costs, contract terminations, professional services, and facilities closure costs.
Fair Value of Equity Awards Assumed.
The Company assumed unvested restricted stock units (RSUs) and stock options with a fair value of $22.2 million.
The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was used to determine the fair value of these stock options, whereas the fair value of the RSUs was based on the market price on the grant date of the instruments.
The Black-Scholes option-pricing model incorporates various subjective assumptions including expected volatility, expected term and risk-free interest rates.
The expected volatility was estimated by a combination of implied and historical stock price volatility of the options.
Of the total fair value of the equity awards assumed, $6.8 million was allocated to the purchase consideration and $15.4 million was allocated to future services to be expensed over their remaining service periods on a straight-line basis.
Supplemental Pro Forma Information (Unaudited).
The financial information in the table below summarizes the combined results of operations of the Company and Magma, on a pro forma basis, as though the companies had been combined as of the beginning of fiscal 2011.
SYNOPSYS, INC.  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—Continued Purchase Price Allocation.

Acquisition-related costs, consisting of professional services, severance costs, contract terminations and facilities closure costs, totaling $13.0 million were expensed as incurred in the consolidated statements of operations.
Goodwill primarily resulted from the Company’s expectation of sales growth and cost synergies from the integration of Virage’s technology with the Company’s technology and operations to provide an expansion of products and market reach.
Identifiable intangible assets consisted of technology, customer relationships, contract rights and trademarks, were valued using the income method, and are being amortized over two to ten years.
Fair Value of Stock Awards Assumed.

Of the total consideration, $4.6 million was allocated to the purchase consideration and $17.1 million was allocated to future services and expensed over their remaining service periods on a straight-line basis.
Other Fiscal 2010 Acquisitions During fiscal 2010, the Company completed seven other acquisitions for cash.
The Company allocated the total purchase consideration of $221.7 million to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the acquisition dates, resulting in total goodwill of $110.8 million.
Acquired identifiable intangible assets totaling $92.8 million are being amortized over their respective useful lives ranging from one to ten years.
Acquisition-related costs totaling $10.6 million were expensed as incurred in the consolidated statements of operations.
The purchase consideration for one of the acquisitions included contingent consideration up to $10.0 million payable upon the achievement of certain technology milestones over three years.
The contingent consideration was recorded as a liability at its estimated fair value determined based on the net present value of estimated payments of $7.8 million on the acquisition date and is being remeasured at fair value quarterly during the three-year contingency period with changes in its fair value recorded in the Company’s statements of operations.
There is no contingent consideration liability as of the end of fiscal 2012 relating to this acquisition.
Note 4.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill consists of the following:
## Table 3 ##
(1) Adjustments primarily relate to changes in estimates for acquisitions that closed in the prior fiscal year for which the purchase price allocation was still preliminary, and achievement of certain milestones for an acquisition that closed prior to fiscal 2010.
