三大国产EDA龙头撕开垄断缺口

Core Viewpoint - The EDA (Electronic Design Automation) industry in China is experiencing a significant divergence in performance among its leading companies, with Huada Jiutian showing revenue growth but a drastic decline in profit, contrasting sharply with the high profit growth of competitors GuaLi Micro and GaiLun Electronics [1][2]. Revenue and Profit Analysis - In Q3 2025, Huada Jiutian achieved a revenue of 805 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 8.24%, with Q3 revenue alone reaching 286 million yuan, up 12.3% quarter-on-quarter. However, its net profit plummeted by 84.52% to 9.06 million yuan, with a non-recurring net profit loss of 22.16 million yuan [4]. - GuaLi Micro reported a revenue of 428 million yuan for the first three quarters, a year-on-year increase of 48.86%, and a net profit of 37.02 million yuan, up 380.14% [4]. - GaiLun Electronics recorded a revenue of 315 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 12.71%, and a net profit of 41.99 million yuan, up 173.46% [5]. Cost and Investment Trends - Huada Jiutian's stock incentive expenses reached 104 million yuan in the first half of the year, significantly impacting its apparent profit. Other expenses also increased, with sales expenses up 23.99%, management expenses up 8.69%, R&D expenses up 2.7%, and financial expenses up 25.23% [4]. - GuaLi Micro's expenses increased by approximately 63.46 million yuan, but its expense ratio decreased by 10.91 percentage points to 67.54%, indicating initial scale effects [4]. Technological Advancements - Domestic EDA companies are focusing on high-end digital chip design tools, with the localization rate for analog chip EDA tools exceeding 30%, while digital chip EDA tools remain below 15% [7]. - Huada Jiutian launched seven core EDA tools and nine key solutions, achieving significant milestones in advanced process certification and digital circuit design tools [7][8]. - GuaLi Micro made key advancements in DFT (Design for Testability) products, enhancing product adaptability and competitiveness [9]. Market Dynamics - The domestic EDA market is characterized by a competitive landscape where major design firms still prefer international tools for stability, while smaller firms are more cost-sensitive [12]. - The three international giants—Synopsys, Cadence, and Siemens EDA—hold a combined 74% market share, with Synopsys at 31%, Cadence at 30%, and Siemens at 13% [13]. - Despite the dominance of international players, domestic EDA companies are expected to benefit from supportive policies and growing market demand, presenting opportunities for market share expansion [13].
