Current thesis
The strongest near-term bull read is that the company delivered a clean T+1 earnings package: Q3 revenue beat the prior internal guide, profitability improved, FY26 guidance was raised, cash flow stayed strong, and capital return was expanded via the enlarged buyback [#8-K-2026-05-07].
