Current thesis
The constructive view is that Q1 marked another stabilization step: revenue beat internal expectations, ETM improved sequentially, telecom and parts of SET held up better, expense actions continued, and management still pointed to improved year-over-year revenue and adjusted EBITDA margin each successive quarter in 2026 plus organic growth and margin expansion in 2H26 [#SEC-8K-2026-05-07] [#EARNINGS-TRANSCRIPT-2026Q1].
