Item 1.  Business

                               General

Mentor Graphics Corporation (Mentor Graphics or Company), an 
Oregon corporation organized in 1981, is headquartered in 
Wilsonville, Oregon.  The Company's common stock is traded in the 
NASDAQ National Market System under the symbol MENT.


                         Products and Services

The Company designs, manufactures, markets and supports electronic 
design automation (EDA) software for the integrated circuit (IC) 
and systems design markets.  The Company provides a broad range of 
EDA tools developed either by the Company or together with third 
parties to support the entire electronic design process.  The 
Company's software products enable engineers and designers to 
design, analyze, place and route, and test custom ICs, application 
specific ICs (ASICs), printed circuit boards, multichip modules 
and other electronic systems and subsystems.  The Company^s Falcon 
Framework software provides a common foundation for the Company's 
EDA software products.  Falcon Framework software also allows for 
the integration of third party software tools developed by other 
commercial EDA vendors and by customers for their own internal 
use.  The Company's products help customers reduce development 
time while producing innovative hardware products of high quality.  
In addition to software products, Mentor Graphics' Value Added 
Services division also offers consulting, support and training 
services to enhance customers' success in the design and 
manufacture of hardware products.  


                            Platforms

The Company's software runs on UNIX workstations in a broad range 
of price and performance levels, including workstations 
manufactured by Hewlett-Packard Company, Sun Microsystems, Inc.,  
Digital Equipment Corporation,  NEC Corporation and International 
Business Machines Corporation.  The above major computer 
manufacturers have a substantial installed base of workstations, 
and make frequent introductions of new products with significant 
price/performance improvements.

The Company has written virtually all of its software in the high 
level languages C++, C, Pascal, or Fortran to facilitate its 
portability to other platforms in the future, should availability 
of the Company's software on such platforms prove desirable. 


                        Marketing and Sales

The Company's marketing strategy emphasizes customer support, 
Value Added Services, a strong direct sales force and large 
corporate account penetration in the semiconductor, aerospace, 
computer, telecommunications and consumer electronics industries.  
Customers use the Company's products in the design of such diverse 
products as supercomputers, automotive electronics, missile 
guidance systems, signal processors, personal computers, gallium 
arsenide circuits, microprocessors and telecommunication switching 
systems.

Mentor Graphics sells and licenses its products primarily through 
its direct sales force in the United States, through the direct 
sales forces of its wholly-owned subsidiaries in Asia and Europe 
and through distributors.  During 1993, the Company transitioned 
from direct sales to distributorships in some Asian markets by 
assisting former employees to set up distributorship businesses 
for Company products.  The Company is considering making similar 
transitions to distributorships in other geographies.  During the 
years ended December 31, 1993 and 1992, sales outside of North 
America accounted for 46 and 48 percent, respectively, of total 
sales.  Additional information relating to foreign and domestic 
operations is contained in Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated 
Financial Statements on pages 34-35 of the 1993 Annual Report to 
Shareholders and is incorporated by this reference.  Fluctuating 
exchange rates and other factors beyond the Company's control, 
such as tariff and trade policies, domestic and foreign tax and 
economic policies and the relative stability of international 
economic and monetary conditions should continue to affect the 
level and profitability of sales outside the United States.

The Company's OpenDoor program coordinates and supports the 
integration of commercial EDA products and customers' internal 
products into the Company's EDA environment.  Under this program, 
the Company enables OpenDoor participant companies to develop 
interfaces from their products to the Company's products.  
OpenDoor participants can select from a range of integration 
technologies to achieve an optimal degree of integration for their 
products.  There are now approximately 115 OpenDoor participants. 

No material portion of the Company's business is dependent on a 
single customer.  The Company has traditionally experienced some 
seasonal fluctuations in receipt of orders, which are typically 
stronger in the second and fourth quarters of the year.  As is 
typical of many other companies in the electronics industry, the 
Company generally ships its products to customers within 10 to 90 
days after receipt of an order, and a substantial portion of 
quarterly shipments tend to be made in the last month of each 
quarter.  The Company believes that the dollar amount of its 
backlog is not material to an understanding of the Company's 
business.

The Company sells and licenses its products and some third-party 
products pursuant to purchase orders and master purchase and 
license agreements.  The Company has corporate agreements 
providing the general terms and conditions of sales and discounts 
to certain of its customers.  The Company schedules deliveries 
only after receipt of purchase orders under these agreements.  


                     Manufacturing Operations

The Company's manufacturing operations primarily consist of 
reproduction of the Company's software and documentation.  In 
North America, manufacturing occurs at the Company's facility in 
Wilsonville, Oregon.  Software and documentation distribution 
centers in The Netherlands, Japan and Singapore serve their 
respective regions.  The Company generally does not integrate 
Company software with hardware from suppliers.  The Company uses a 
manufacturing resource planning system which integrates 
purchasing, inventory control and accounting in all regions.


                        Product Development

The EDA market is competitive and characterized by rapid 
technological change, which requires continuous high expenditures 
for the enhancement of existing products and the development of 
new products.  The Company is committed to the creation of new 
products and intends to continue to enhance its existing products.  
During the years ended December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991, the 
Company expensed approximately $77,598,000, $73,947,000 and 
$79,539,000 respectively, and capitalized approximately 
$3,609,000, $6,120,000, and $9,917,000, respectively, related to 
product development.  Substantially all of these costs were 
related to the development of the Company's proprietary 
application software. 



                             Suppliers

The Company contracts with several suppliers who provide software 
products which the Company integrates into its product line, 
allowing the Company to both concentrate its development efforts 
on its core product line and offer its customers a more complete 
design solution.

The Company no longer integrates and resells computer hardware 
with the Company's products.  The Company believes that its 
customers realize little value in purchasing hardware through the 
Company.  As a service to its customers in Europe and Japan, where 
some customers prefer to purchase both hardware and software from 
one source, the Company will continue to accept orders for 
hardware which is shipped directly from the supplier to customers.

            Customer Support and Professional Services

The Company has a worldwide organization to meet its customers' 
needs for software support, training, consulting, custom IC design 
and documentation.  The Company offers support contracts providing 
software updates and support.  Most of the Company's customers are 
covered by software support contracts.  Some hardware support is 
provided to customers under subcontract by third-party hardware 
suppliers, although the Company will not be entering into any new 
hardware support agreements with customers in 1994.  The Company 
provides technical support for its products through a direct 
telephone support line and an electronic communications system.

Additional professional services are offered through the Company's 
Value Added Services division which provides consulting and 
training to help the Company's customers improve their design 
processes and make the most efficient use of their EDA software 
tools.  

                          Competition

The EDA industry is competitive and has been characterized by 
rapid technological advances in application software, operating 
systems and hardware.  The Company's principal competitors are 
Cadence Design Systems Inc., Synopsys Inc., Viewlogic Systems, 
Inc., COMPASS Design Automation, Inc., Zuken Incorporated, Racal 
Redac, Ltd., Intergraph Corporation, and Seiko Corporation.  The 
Company believes that other companies may be developing EDA 
systems.

Some of the Company's competitors and potential competitors may 
have greater financial and marketing resources than Mentor 
Graphics.  However, the Company believes the main competitive 
factors in the EDA industry are breadth and quality of application 
software, product integration, ability to respond to technological 
change, quality of a company's sales force, price, size of the 
installed base, level of customer support and value added 
services.  The Company believes that it generally competes 
favorably in these areas.  The Company can give no assurance, 
however, that it will have the financial resources, marketing, 
distribution and service capability, depth of key personnel or 
technological knowledge to compete successfully in the EDA market.


                            Employees

The Company and its subsidiaries employed approximately 2,100 
persons full time as of December 31, 1993 compared with 
approximately 2,200 persons at the end of 1992.  The Company's 
success will depend in part on its ability to attract and retain 
employees who are in great demand.  The Company continues to enjoy 
good employee relations.  No Company employees are represented by 
a collective bargaining unit.


                     Patents and Licenses

The Company owns United States and Canadian patents covering the 
technology underlying several of its software products.  The 
Company has also filed other patent applications on technology it 
has developed and intends to file additional patent applications 
in the future.  While the Company believes the pending 
applications relate to patentable devices, there can be no 
assurance that any patent will be issued or that any patent can be 
successfully defended.  The Company believes that patents are less 
significant to the success of its business than technical 
competence, management ability, marketing capability and customer 
support.

The Company regards its application software as proprietary and 
attempts to protect it with copyrights, trade secret laws, and 
internal non-disclosure safeguards, as well as patents, when 
appropriate, as noted above.  The Company typically incorporates 
restrictions on disclosure, usage and transferability into its 
agreements with customers and other third parties.


Item 2.  Properties

The Company's Wilsonville, Oregon facilities are located in six 
owned buildings of approximately 570,000 total square feet located 
on about 90 acres.  All corporate functions, as well as a majority 
of research and development and domestic activities, operate from 
this site.  In January 1993, the Company entered into a five-year 
lease with a third party covering the Company's former 
manufacturing and warehouse building on its Wilsonville site.  The 
building size is approximately 150,000 square feet.

The Company leases additional space in San Jose, California, and 
in various locations throughout the United States and in foreign 
countries, primarily for sales and customer service operations.  
The Company believes that it will be able to renew or replace its 
existing leases as they expire and that its current facilities 
will be adequate through at least 1994.


Item 3.  Legal Proceedings

There are no material legal proceedings pending against the 
Company.


Item 4.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

No matters were submitted to a vote of the security holders of the 
Company during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended 
December 31, 1993.

statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders' equity for 
each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 
1993, which are included in the 1993 annual report to 
stockholders.  These consolidated financial statements and our 
report thereon are incorporated by reference in the annual report
