Q: Please comment on the 3rd q results. For a company that got hammered by tariffs, it seems to be adjusting ok.
5i Research Answer:
EPS of 36c beat estimates of 22c; revenue of $71.4M beat estimates of $68.4M. EBITDA of $18.3M beat estimates of $10.2M. Income and revenue did fall, however, year over year, largely due to tariffs. An acquisition added $6.2M to sales. Margins slipped nearly 3 points. Backlog is close to $500M, representing close to two years' sales. The stock is very cheap at 8X earnings. Considering conditions, it was a good quarter overall, at least a solid beat over expectations.
