Thanks.
The company has paid special dividends before so we would note read too much into this. But the regular dividend was also increased, by 2.5%. EPS of 24c beat estimates of 18.5c; revenue of $132.7M beat estimates of $125.7M. EBITDA of $29M beat estimates by 27%. Two brokers raised their target prices today. Earnings rose 17%. Revenue rose 6%. International sales rose 12.5%. Cash is $97M. Margins did slip slightly. It was a nice improvement for the company. It has had good quarters in the past, and its business can be chunky with large orders. We would temper expectations a bit, but certainly the quarter overall was solid. It remains decent as an income stock at 5.57% yield, and if it can string a few of these quarters together the valuation should get re-rated.
