Galloway Capital Partners Announces 4.31% Stake in Babcock & Wilcox Enterprises, Inc.
MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Galloway Capital Partners, LLC and its affiliate, Diveroli Investment Group (collectively, ' Galloway '), announced today a 4.31% stake in Babcock & Wilcox Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE: BW), a U.S.-based global leader in energy and environmental technologies and services.
Bruce Galloway, the Founder and Chief Investment Officer of Galloway, stated, 'Based on our analysis, we believe B&W's share price is deeply undervalued relative to its potential. Our experienced team seeks to work with management and the Board to enhance and unlock shareholder value.'
Three Core Reasons Why B&W is Undervalued:
Record Backlog and Strong Bookings Signal Growth Visibility
The Company's 2024 bookings surged 39% year-over-year to $889.6 million, and backlog reached a record $540.1 million, up 47% from 2023. This provides a solid runway for revenue conversion in 2025–2026 and demonstrates robust demand for B&W's Thermal and Environmental solutions.
BrightLoop Technology Has Transformational Potential
B&W's proprietary BrightLoop™ hydrogen and carbon capture platform is progressing toward commercialization, with a demo plant on track for 2026. Management has targeted ~$1 billion in BrightLoop bookings by 2028—a fraction of the global hydrogen market, but potentially a transformative growth engine.
Operational Turnaround is Underway Despite Legacy Headwinds
Adjusted EBITDA rose 13% year-over-year in 2024 (excluding BrightLoop), and Q1 2025 results showed continued margin expansion. While the Company's balance sheet remains somewhat leveraged, we believe that the Net Debt to EBITDA is very manageable at approximately 3x.
The global surge in AI-driven data centers is creating unprecedented demand for power infrastructure - and Babcock & Wilcox is well-positioned to benefit. Its Thermal segment, specializing in steam generation and natural gas conversions, aligns with the grid-scale energy solutions now required by hyperscalers. As utilities upgrade infrastructure to support data center growth, B&W's deep engineering expertise and record backlog suggest it could be a stealth beneficiary of one of the fastest-growing trends in infrastructure today.

HARTFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Travelers Companies, Inc.

Travelers also set a record this year as the longest-running title sponsor in the tournament's history. In the 19 years the company has been title sponsor, the Travelers Championship has generated tens of millions of dollars for charity. Alan Schnitzer, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Travelers, said, 'This week truly captured what makes the Travelers Championship so special – world-class golf played before an enthusiastic crowd, all united by a shared purpose. It is a formula that led to a great week of golf and more money raised for charity than ever before.

Commercial Metals (NYSE:CMC) Will Pay A Dividend Of $0.18
Commercial Metals Company (NYSE:CMC) will pay a dividend of $0.18 on the 9th of July. This payment means the dividend yield will be 1.5%, which is below the average for the industry. This technology could replace computers: discover the 20 stocks are working to make quantum computing a reality. While yield is important, another factor to consider about a company's dividend is whether the current payout levels are feasible. Prior to this announcement, the company was paying out 113% of what it was earning, however the dividend was quite comfortably covered by free cash flows at a cash payout ratio of only 19%. Given that the dividend is a cash outflow, we think that cash is more important than accounting measures of profit when assessing the dividend, so this is a mitigating factor. Looking forward, earnings per share is forecast to rise exponentially over the next year. Assuming the dividend continues along recent trends, we estimate that the payout ratio could reach 17%, which is in a comfortable range for us. View our latest analysis for Commercial Metals The company has an extended history of paying stable dividends. The dividend has gone from an annual total of $0.48 in 2015 to the most recent total annual payment of $0.72. This means that it has been growing its distributions at 4.1% per annum over that time. While the consistency in the dividend payments is impressive, we think the relatively slow rate of growth is less attractive. Some investors will be chomping at the bit to buy some of the company's stock based on its dividend history. However, initial appearances might be deceiving. Over the past five years, it looks as though Commercial Metals' EPS has declined at around 24% a year. A sharp decline in earnings per share is not great from from a dividend perspective. Even conservative payout ratios can come under pressure if earnings fall far enough. Over the next year, however, earnings are actually predicted to rise, but we would still be cautious until a track record of earnings growth can be built. In summary, while it's good to see that the dividend hasn't been cut, we are a bit cautious about Commercial Metals' payments, as there could be some issues with sustaining them into the future. The company is generating plenty of cash, but we still think the dividend is a bit high for comfort. Overall, we don't think this company has the makings of a good income stock. Investors generally tend to favour companies with a consistent, stable dividend policy as opposed to those operating an irregular one. However, there are other things to consider for investors when analysing stock performance.
