'In the first quarter, we grew revenue, gross profit, and Adjusted EBITDA, demonstrating the scalability of our business model,' Michael McCann, President and Chief Executive Officer of Limbach, said.
Established in 1901, Limbach (NASDAQ: LMB) provides integrated building systems solutions, including mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services.
Examining a company's long-term performance can provide clues about its quality. Even a bad business can shine for one or two quarters, but a top-tier one grows for years. Unfortunately, Limbach struggled to consistently increase demand as its $532.9 million of sales for the trailing 12 months was close to its revenue five years ago. This wasn't a great result, but there are still things to like about Limbach.
We at StockStory place the most emphasis on long-term growth, but within industrials, a half-decade historical view may miss cycles, industry trends, or a company capitalizing on catalysts such as a new contract win or a successful product line. Limbach's annualized revenue growth of 2.9% over the last two years is above its five-year trend, but we were still disappointed by the results.
This quarter, Limbach reported year-on-year revenue growth of 11.9%, and its $133.1 million of revenue exceeded Wall Street's estimates by 10%.
Looking ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to grow 16% over the next 12 months, an improvement versus the last two years. This projection is eye-popping and implies its newer products and services will catalyze better top-line performance.
Software is eating the world and there is virtually no industry left that has been untouched by it. That drives increasing demand for tools helping software developers do their jobs, whether it be monitoring critical cloud infrastructure, integrating audio and video functionality, or ensuring smooth content streaming.

Limbach was profitable over the last five years but held back by its large cost base. Its average operating margin of 4.9% was weak for an industrials business. This result isn't too surprising given its low gross margin as a starting point.
On the plus side, Limbach's operating margin rose by 5.2 percentage points over the last five years.
This quarter, Limbach generated an operating profit margin of 5.9%, in line with the same quarter last year. This indicates the company's cost structure has recently been stable.
Revenue trends explain a company's historical growth, but the long-term change in earnings per share (EPS) points to the profitability of that growth – for example, a company could inflate its sales through excessive spending on advertising and promotions.
Limbach's full-year EPS flipped from negative to positive over the last five years. This is a good sign and shows it's at an inflection point.
Like with revenue, we analyze EPS over a more recent period because it can provide insight into an emerging theme or development for the business.
Limbach's EPS grew at an astounding 53.3% compounded annual growth rate over the last two years, higher than its 2.9% annualized revenue growth. This tells us the company became more profitable on a per-share basis as it expanded.
Diving into the nuances of Limbach's earnings can give us a better understanding of its performance. While we mentioned earlier that Limbach's operating margin was flat this quarter, a two-year view shows its margin has expanded by 2 percentage points. This was the most relevant factor (aside from the revenue impact) behind its higher earnings; taxes and interest expenses can also affect EPS but don't tell us as much about a company's fundamentals.
In Q1, Limbach reported EPS at $1.12, up from $0.69 in the same quarter last year. This print easily cleared analysts' estimates, and shareholders should be content with the results. Over the next 12 months, Wall Street expects Limbach's full-year EPS of $3.74 to grow 10.6%.
We were impressed by how significantly Limbach blew past analysts' revenue, EPS, and EBITDA expectations this quarter. We were also excited its full-year EBITDA guidance outperformed Wall Street's estimates. Zooming out, we think this quarter featured some important positives. The stock traded up 5.9% to $109.20 immediately following the results.
Indeed, Limbach had a rock-solid quarterly earnings result, but is this stock a good investment here? If you're making that decision, you should consider the bigger picture of valuation, business qualities, as well as the latest earnings. We cover that in our actionable full research report which you can read here, it's free.

NEW YORK & GURUGRAM, India, June 23, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MakeMyTrip Ltd (NASDAQ: MMYT, the "Company" or "MakeMyTrip"), today announced the closing of its previously announced offering of US$1.25 billion in aggregate principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2030 (the "Notes"), and the exercise in full by the initial purchasers of their option to purchase an additional US$187.5 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (collectively, the "Notes Offering"). The Notes were offered in a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Company also announced today by a separate press release the closing of a registered public offering of 16,000,000 ordinary shares (the "Primary Equity Offering") at US$90 per ordinary share. The underwriters exercised in full their option to purchase 2,400,000 additional ordinary shares. MakeMyTrip received net proceeds from the Notes Offering of approximately US$1.41 billion, after deducting the initial purchasers' discounts and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company plans to use all of the net proceeds from the Notes Offering and the Primary Equity Offering to repurchase a portion of the Class B ordinary shares of the Company from Group Limited. Terms of the Notes The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company. The Notes will mature on July 1, 2030 unless redeemed, repurchased or converted prior to such date. The Notes will be convertible into ordinary shares of the Company, at the option of the holders, in integral multiples of US$1,000 principal amount, at any time prior to the close of business on the second business day preceding the maturity date. The initial conversion rate of the Notes is 8.2305 ordinary shares per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes (which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately US$121.50 per ordinary share and represents a conversion premium of approximately 35% above the public offering price of the ordinary shares, which was US$90 per ordinary share). The conversion rate of the Notes is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events. On or after July 10, 2028, MakeMyTrip may redeem for cash all or part of the Notes, at its option (such redemption, an "Optional Redemption"), if (x) the Notes are "freely tradable" (as defined in the indenture for the Notes) and all accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, has been paid in full, as of the date the Company sends the notice of redemption and (y) the last reported sale price of MakeMyTrip's ordinary shares has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect on (i) each of at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately prior to the date MakeMyTrip provides notice of redemption and (ii) the trading day immediately preceding the date MakeMyTrip sends such notice. MakeMyTrip may also redeem for cash all but not part of the Notes at any time if less than 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued remains outstanding at such time ("Cleanup Redemption"). In addition, MakeMyTrip may redeem all but not part of the Notes in the event of certain changes in the tax laws ("Tax Redemption"). The redemption price in the case of a Tax Redemption, an Optional Redemption or a Cleanup Redemption will equal 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the related Redemption Date. Holders of the Notes will have the right, at their option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of their Notes, on July 3, 2028 at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any. In addition, subject to certain conditions and a limited exception, holders of the Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or part of their Notes upon occurrence of certain events that constitute a fundamental change. In connection with certain corporate events or if the Company issues a notice of Optional Redemption, Cleanup Redemption or Tax Redemption, it will, under certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for holders who elect to convert their Notes in connection with such corporate event or such Optional Redemption, Cleanup Redemption or Tax Redemption. Other Matters Nothing contained herein shall constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, including the Notes or the ordinary shares, nor shall there be any offer or sale of the securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The Primary Equity Offering was made only by means of a separate prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Notes and the ordinary shares deliverable upon conversion thereof have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") or any state securities laws and are being offered and sold only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act.

[You may also click here for additional information] New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - June 23, 2025) - Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential claims against Red Cat Holdings, Inc. ('Red Cat' or the 'Company') (NASDAQ: RCAT) and reminds investors of the July 21, 2025 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company. [ This image cannot be displayed. Please visit the source: ] Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia. The firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its founding in 1995. See As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (1) the Salt Lake City Facility's production capacity, and Defendants' progress in developing the same, was overstated; (2) the overall value of the SRR Contract was overstated; and (3) as a result, Defendants' public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. In March 2022, Red Cat announced that Teal had been selected by the U.S. Department of Defense's Defense Innovation Unit and the U.S. Army to compete in Tranche 2 of the U.S. Army's Short Range Reconnaissance Program of Record (the 'SRR Program'). The SRR Program is a U.S. Army initiative to provide a small, rucksack-portable sUAS to U.S. Army platoons. At all relevant times, Defendants suggested or otherwise asserted that the SRR Program's Tranche 2 contract (the 'SRR Contract') was worth potentially hundreds of millions to over a billion dollars in contract revenues. In March 2023, Company management confirmed that "[t]he Salt Lake City factory is complete and ready to go' and "[w]e now have the capacity to produce thousands of drones per month.' The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) the Salt Lake City Facility's production capacity, and Defendants' progress in developing the same, was overstated; (ii) the overall value of the SRR Contract was overstated; and (iii) as a result, Defendants' public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. On July 27, 2023, Red Cat hosted a conference call with investors and analysts to discuss its financial and operating results for its fiscal year 2023. During the call, Defendants revealed that the Salt Lake City Facility could only currently produce 100 drones per month, and that the facility was still being built, refined, and expanded. Red Cat filed an annual report on Form 10-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission the same day, which likewise reported that construction of the facility was only 'substantially completed' and potentially could reach a production capacity of one thousand drones per month over the next 2 to 3 years, but only with additional capital investments and manufacturing efficiencies realized. Following these disclosures, Red Cat's stock price fell $0.10 per share, or 8.93%, to close at $1.02 per share on July 28, 2023. On September 23, 2024, Red Cat issued a press release announcing its financial and operating results for the first quarter of its fiscal year 2025. Among other results, the Company reported losses per share of $0.17, missing consensus estimates by $0.09, and revenue of $2.8 million, missing consensus estimates by $1.07 million. On a subsequent conference call that Red Cat hosted with investors and analysts the same day to discuss these results, Company management disclosed that Red Cat had spent 'the past four months . . . retooling [the Salt Lake City Facility] and preparing for high volume production[,]' while admitting that a 'pause in manufacturing of Teal 2 and building our Army prototypes impacted Teal 2 sales' because, inter alia, Red Cat 'couldn't produce and sell Teal 2 units[] while retooling [its] factory.' On this news, Red Cat's stock price fell $0.80 per share, or 25.32%, over the following two trading sessions, to close at $2.36 per share on September 25, 2024. On November 19, 2024, Red Cat issued a press release announcing that it had won the SRR Contract. On a subsequent conference call that Red Cat hosted with investors and analysts the same day to discuss the contract win, Defendants continued to assert that the SRR Contract was worth potentially hundreds of millions of dollars, while expressing their confidence that Red Cat could realize up to $50 million to $79.5 million in revenue from the SRR Contract during it fiscal year 2025 alone. Then, on January 16, 2025, Kerrisdale Capital ('Kerrisdale') published a report (the 'Kerrisdale Report') alleging, inter alia, that Defendants had overstated the value of the SRR Contract, which Kerrisdale found was only worth approximately $20 million to $25 million based on U.S. Army budget documents. The Kerrisdale Report also alleged that Defendants had been misleading investors about the Salt Lake City Facility's production capacity for years, while also raising concerns about the timing of executive departures and insider transactions that took place shortly after Red Cat announced it had won the SRR Contract. On this news, Red Cat's stock price fell $2.35 per share, or 21.54%, over the following two trading sessions, to close at $8.56 per share on January 17, 2025. The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not. Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding Red Cat's conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.
