Former Kentucky Great Has Words About NIL: 'I'm Glad I Didn't Play in That Era'
Former Kentucky Great Has Words About NIL: 'I'm Glad I Didn't Play in That Era' originally appeared on Athlon Sports. When John Wall talks, Big Blue Nation listens. On a recent appearance on Sunday Mornings with Matt & Myron, former Kentucky Wildcat and NBA All-Star John Wall dropped an unexpected take on the hottest topic in college sports: NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness). In a world where top recruits like Cooper Flagg are rumored to earn upward of $28 million, Wall, arguably the face of the Kentucky basketball resurgence in 2009 says he's thankful he missed the NIL boom. Advertisement 'For me, I'm glad I didn't come up in that era, you know what I mean?' Wall said. That's not something you hear often, especially from a player who would've been one of college basketball's highest earners in the NIL era. At Kentucky, Wall was the star. His signature dances and high-flying dunks helped catapult UK back into national relevance and led to being a No. 1 NBA Draft pick in 2010. While acknowledging the positives, Wall made it clear that NIL has its challenges too. 'I think it's great… but they gotta do like some boundaries with some of it… not like everybody jumping in the portal every year trying to just search for money.' Advertisement The former Wildcat's perspective brings a fresh voice to the NIL conversation. Wall is someone who respects the evolution of the game but is also wary of how it affects the spirit of college basketball. He even admitted that while he wouldn't trade his time at UK, cashing in would've been 'crazy.' 'That would be dope… how much I would have gotten from NIL for sure.' Wall's influence remains strong in Lexington. He revealed he's been invited by new head coach Mark Pope to work out with the current squad this summer and promises a return to Rupp Arena is coming soon. 'Kentucky's always home for me… I'm definitely coming back.' Advertisement As the NIL era continues to reshape the college sports landscape, John Wall's honest reflection is a reminder: some legends were built without a price tag and that may be what makes them truly priceless.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP measures contained within this press release with their most directly comparable GAAP results. Investors are also encouraged to look at the GAAP results as the best measure of financial performance. To supplement Cadence's financial results presented on a GAAP basis, Cadence management uses non-GAAP measures that it believes are helpful in understanding Cadence's performance. One such measure is non-GAAP net income, which is a financial measure not calculated under GAAP. Non-GAAP net income is calculated by Cadence management by taking GAAP net income and excluding, as applicable, amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and integration-related costs including retention expenses, income or expenses related to investments, divestitures and Cadence's non-qualified deferred compensation plan, restructuring and other significant items not directly related to Cadence's core business operations, and the income tax effect of non-GAAP pre-tax adjustments. Cadence management uses non-GAAP net income because it excludes items that are generally not directly related to the performance of Cadence's core business operations and therefore provides supplemental information to Cadence management and investors regarding the performance of the business operations, facilitates comparisons to the historical operating results and allows the review of Cadence's business from the same perspective as Cadence management, including forecasting and budgeting. The following tables reconcile the specific items excluded from GAAP operating margin, GAAP net income and GAAP net income per diluted share in the calculation of non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share for the periods shown below: Operating Margin Reconciliation Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 March 31, 2024 (unaudited) GAAP operating margin as a percent of total revenue 29.1 % 24.8 % Reconciling items to non-GAAP operating margin as a percent of total revenue: Stock-based compensation expense 8.7 % 8.7 % Amortization of acquired intangibles 2.0 % 1.7 % Acquisition and integration-related costs 1.8 % 2.2 % Restructuring 0.0 % 0.0 % Non-qualified deferred compensation expenses (credits) (0.1 )% 0.4 % Special charges 0.2 % 0.0 % Non-GAAP operating margin as a percent of total revenue 41.7 % 37.8 % Net Income Reconciliation Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 March 31, 2024 (in thousands) (unaudited) Net income on a GAAP basis $ 273,579 $ 247,643 Stock-based compensation expense 107,613 88,129 Amortization of acquired intangibles 25,416 16,755 Acquisition and integration-related costs 23,105 22,086 Restructuring (109 ) 280 Non-qualified deferred compensation expenses (credits) (1,573 ) 4,588 Special charges 1,988 — Other income or expense related to investments, divestitures and non-qualified deferred compensation plan assets 3,332 (59,986 ) Income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments (2,939 ) (613 ) Net income on a non-GAAP basis $ 430,412 $ 318,882 Diluted Net Income Per Share Reconciliation Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 March 31, 2024 (in thousands, except per share data) (unaudited) Diluted net income per share on a GAAP basis $ 1.00 $ 0.91 Stock-based compensation expense 0.39 0.32 Amortization of acquired intangibles 0.09 0.06 Acquisition and integration-related costs 0.09 0.08 Restructuring — — Non-qualified deferred compensation expenses (credits) (0.01 ) 0.02 Special charges 0.01 — Other income or expense related to investments, divestitures and non-qualified deferred compensation plan assets 0.01 (0.22 ) Income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments (0.01 ) — Diluted net income per share on a non-GAAP basis $ 1.57 $ 1.17 Shares used in calculation of diluted net income per share 273,631 273,544 Cadence Design Systems, Inc.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP measures contained within this press release with their most directly comparable GAAP results. Investors are also encouraged to look at the GAAP results as the best measure of financial performance. To supplement Cadence's financial results presented on a GAAP basis, Cadence management uses non-GAAP measures that it believes are helpful in understanding Cadence's performance. One such measure is non-GAAP net income, which is a financial measure not calculated under GAAP. Non-GAAP net income is calculated by Cadence management by taking GAAP net income and excluding, as applicable, amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and integration-related costs including retention expenses, income or expenses related to investments, divestitures and Cadence's non-qualified deferred compensation plan, restructuring and other significant items not directly related to Cadence's core business operations, and the income tax effect of non-GAAP pre-tax adjustments. Cadence management uses non-GAAP net income because it excludes items that are generally not directly related to the performance of Cadence's core business operations and therefore provides supplemental information to Cadence management and investors regarding the performance of the business operations, facilitates comparisons to the historical operating results and allows the review of Cadence's business from the same perspective as Cadence management, including forecasting and budgeting. The following tables reconcile the specific items excluded from GAAP operating margin, GAAP net income and GAAP net income per diluted share in the calculation of non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share for the periods shown below: Net Income Reconciliation Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 March 31, 2024 (in thousands) (unaudited) Net income on a GAAP basis $ 273,579 $ 247,643 Stock-based compensation expense 107,613 88,129 Amortization of acquired intangibles 25,416 16,755 Acquisition and integration-related costs 23,105 22,086 Restructuring (109 ) 280 Non-qualified deferred compensation expenses (credits) (1,573 ) 4,588 Special charges 1,988 — Other income or expense related to investments, divestitures and non-qualified deferred compensation plan assets 3,332 (59,986 ) Income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments (2,939 ) (613 ) Net income on a non-GAAP basis $ 430,412 $ 318,882 Expand Diluted Net Income Per Share Reconciliation Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 March 31, 2024 (in thousands, except per share data) (unaudited) Diluted net income per share on a GAAP basis $ 1.00 $ 0.91 Stock-based compensation expense 0.39 0.32 Amortization of acquired intangibles 0.09 0.06 Acquisition and integration-related costs 0.09 0.08 Restructuring — — Non-qualified deferred compensation expenses (credits) (0.01 ) 0.02 Special charges 0.01 — Other income or expense related to investments, divestitures and non-qualified deferred compensation plan assets 0.01 (0.22 ) Income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments (0.01 ) — Diluted net income per share on a non-GAAP basis $ 1.57 $ 1.17 Shares used in calculation of diluted net income per share 273,631 273,544 Expand Cadence Design Systems, Inc.
