Current thesis
The post-earnings bull case is that CECO’s Q1 beat was not just accounting noise: orders nearly doubled, backlog crossed $1 billion, April bookings already exceeded $450 million, and management raised 2026 guidance while pointing to better-margin backlog conversion later in the year. If the Thermon close lands on schedule, investors may start underwriting a larger platform with synergy upside rather than a niche project supplier.
