Ansys said Monday the transaction is slated to conclude in the fourth quarter of 2020 subject to regulatory clearance and other customary closing conditions.
Following the acquisition, Ansys expects to leverage AGI’s software portfolio designed for the simulation, modeling, test and analysis of technologies used in the defense, aerospace, intelligence and telecommunications sectors.

Ajei Gopal, president and CEO of Ansys, said the definitive acquisition agreement will help the company drive the use of simulation for aerospace, 5G and automation applications.
Sixty-seven percent of the transaction’s purchase price will be paid in cash and 33 percent will come from Ansys common stock. Ansys expects the transaction to add $75M to $85M in non-GAAP revenue accretive to non-GAAP diluted earnings per share.
