Current thesis
The best supported bull view is still operational: 2025 sales rose 13%, backlog ended 2025 up 22%, and management pointed to continuing strength in energy and communications plus later-2026 facility benefits [#8-K-2026-03-04][#10-K-2026-03-05]. If Q1 confirms backlog conversion and pricing offsets tariff pressure, the current premium multiple can remain supported.
Posture
Constructive
Lead driver
Momentum
What changed
Momentum remains the lead driver in the composite, 7D delta -1.2.
What can break
Backlog is supportive only if it converts cleanly; the 10-K says substantially all year-end backlog is expected to ship in 2026, so any slippage would matter quickly [#10-K-2026-03-05].
