Shares of the San Jose, California-based company rose 7% in extended trading after rising about 10% this year.
The company expects annual revenue between $5.21 billion and $5.27 billion, up from its earlier forecast of sales between $5.15 billion and $5.23 billion.
"Cadence delivered excellent results for Q2, with broad-based strength across all businesses, more than offsetting the impact of the temporary restrictions on exports to China imposed on May 23rd," Chief Financial Officer John Wall said in a statement.
Removal of the restrictions, which were announced late in May, allowed Cadence to again service the market that brings over 10% of revenue for the company, after an initial suspension of services to China had hurt sales and investor sentiment.
The company reported revenue of $1.28 billion for the June quarter, beating analysts' average estimate of $1.25 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG.

Activist Carronade pushes Viasat breakup, says valuation could jump 500%, FT reports
(Reuters) -Activist investor Carronade Capital Management is urging Viasat to split its broadband and defense units, the Financial Times reported on Thursday, citing people familiar with the matter. Carronade, which holds a 2.3% stake in the satellite communications firm, plans to issue an open letter to the shareholders calling for defense unit to be spun off — a move it says could unlock as much as $11 billion in value for both businesses, the report said. The investment firm estimates Viasat's total valuation could rise more than 500% if the defense unit is separated, according to the report. Carronade continues to build its stake in Viasat and also holds $30 million of the company's debt, FT said. Both Carronade and Viasat did not immediately respond to Reuters requests for comment.

Google Home is still a mess, but at least it's fixed one of its most annoying camera issues
C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Google has released a number of bug fixes for the Home app. Nest Cam users should see fewer 'no video available' errors. The company also fixed an issue where turning a camera on and off during a livestream would cause a 'Camera Unavailable' error. Google Home has become a point of frustration for many users, especially recently, with numerous reports of declining reliability. Despite those issues, things should be getting at least a little better for Nest Cam users. The company has rolled out an update to the Home app that fixes several bugs. According to the latest entry on the Google Home update changelog, spotted by 9to5Google, the 3.36 update introduces a few improvements. The first of these improvements deals with the nagging 'no video available' errors that camera users have run into when trying to view a recent video. Google says that users should see these errors less frequently. The next bug fix addresses camera stream reliability. There was previously an issue where turning a camera off and on during a livestream caused a 'Camera Unavailable' error. This problem has been fixed so that the stream recovers like it should. Elsewhere, incorrect outdoor temperatures displayed on Android devices have been corrected. App crashes related to suspend/resume partial functions have been reduced. And Google says it 'fixed an issue that caused interruptions during the setup flow for new devices after QR code scans or setup code entries.' Other fixes are expected to come to Google Home soon, as the Chief Product Officer for Google Home and Nest recently announced that the team was working on 'major improvements.' The company is expected to share an update on this matter sometime in the fall. Follow

Google loses appeal over app store overhaul in Epic Games case
In Brief Google lost its appeal of a judge's court order requiring the tech giant to revamp its app store in an antitrust case filed by Fortnite maker Epic Games, Reuters reported on Thursday. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected Google's argument that the trial judge made legal errors in the antitrust case that unfairly favored Epic Games. Epic Games first filed its lawsuit in 2020 and was able to convince a jury in 2023 that Google illegally stifled competition. The trial judge ordered Google last October to open its app store to rivals and give Android users more choice when it comes to downloading apps. The order was on hold pending the outcome of Google's appeal. Google argued to the appeals court that its Play Store competes with Apple's App Store, and claimed that the trial judge unfairly prevented it from presenting that argument in defense against Epic's antitrust claims.
