Check out the companies making headlines after the bell : Howard Hughes Holdings — Shares slipped about 5% after Pershing Square’s Bill Ackman upped his takeover offer for the real estate company , vowing to turn it into a “modern-day” Berkshire Hathaway. Ackman said Tuesday that his firm submitted a proposal to acquire 10 million newly issued Howard Hughes shares at $90 per share, higher than the $85 per share from January. Bumble — The online dating company’s stock price plunged nearly 13% after Bumble gave disappointing first-quarter guidance. Bumble said it expects adjusted EBITDA to come out between $60 million and $63 million, and revenue to come out between $242 million and $248 million. Analysts polled by FactSet, meanwhile, expected adjusted EBITDA and revenue of $68.8 million and $256.9 million, respectively, for the period. Bumble’s earnings and revenue for the fourth quarter still came out higher than Wall Street anticipated. Cadence Design — The electronic system designing company saw shares decline about 5%. Although the company’s fourth-quarter earnings and revenue exceeded forecasts from analysts polled by LSEG, its full-year guidance came out below their calls. Cadence said it expects earnings per share, excluding items, to be between $6.65 and $6.75, while analysts called for $6.83 per share. Cadence’s revenue forecast of between $5.14 billion and $5.22 billion is slightly under the consensus call for $5.25 billion. The company’s CEO said Cadence saw record bookings and backlog in 2024.

CoStar also anticipates revenue between $711 million and $716 million, short of expectations of $726.4 million, per FactSet.
