Earnings Preview · 27 October 2026
Where our screen stands going in
Fails the principled screen, Business activity. A strong business is not the same as a suitable one; for a values-conscious book this is a do-not-chase regardless of the print.
What the Street expects
Over the next twelve months analysts pencil in $1.24 of earnings per share against $1.40 over the last twelve, a decline of about 11%.
Levels that matter
At $18.00 the shares sit 18% below the 52-week high of $22.07 and 40% above the low of $12.89 (56% of the way up the range). The 50-day average is $19.55, above the price. The 200-day average is $18.15, above the price.
Valuation going in
The shares trade about 15% above our fair-value estimate: priced for things to go right. Our fair-value estimate is $15.25 against the current share price of $18.00. The shares trade at 12.9 times trailing earnings and 14.5 times forward earnings. Revenue is growing about 25% with net margins near 38%.
Our stance
We are not participants, the name fails our principled screen, so we watch it as a sentiment gauge, not a holding.
What the flow says going in
Money has been flowing IN underneath a flat-to-lower price: quiet accumulation, the kind of positioning that tends to show up before a name moves, not after. (21-day Chaikin Money Flow +0.12, five-day price change -2.6%, as of 2026-10-23, desk flow model).
