ABM Stock Surges 7%: Transformation, Strategic Moves Drive Gains
ABM ABM climbed 7% over the past month, outperforming the Zacks S&P 500 composite's 6% rally. This performance is partly due to a disciplined transformation strategy that's reshaped the company from the inside out. In 2015, ABM launched its bold transformation blueprint — dubbed the 2020 Vision — with a clear mission: to drive long-term, profitable growth through a streamlined, industry-focused operating model. The company centralized functions, built out sales infrastructure and standardized service delivery across high-demand verticals, including janitorial, engineering, HVAC, energy, and mission-critical services, becoming a more agile operator. In 2021, it launched ELEVATE, a next-gen strategic plan focused on digitization, data, and workforce development. The impact is stronger client traction and operational scalability. ABM Industries Incorporated price | ABM Industries Incorporated Quote ABM's 2024 acquisition of Quality Uptime marked a significant shift in the rapidly growing data center space. As AI demand spikes, so does the need for reliable, mission-critical infrastructure. Quality Uptime brings with it capabilities in electrical testing, UPS and breaker maintenance, and power distribution, critical systems for AI-driven facilities. This move elevates ABM to a full-suite provider for data centers, unlocking high-margin growth potential in one of the fastest-expanding segments of the tech industry. ABM is not just growing, it's rewarding. In fiscal years 2022, 2023, and 2024, the company distributed dividends of $51.9 million, $57.5 million, and $56.5 million, respectively. Additionally, it returned $97.5 million, $138.1 million, and $56.1 million through share repurchases in fiscal 2022, 2023, and 2024, respectively. These actions reflect ABM's dedication to enhancing shareholder value and its confidence in the business's long-term potential.

Menarini Group Presents Updated Data Underscoring the Combinability of Elacestrant (ORSERDU®) in Patients with ER+, HER2- Metastatic Breast Cancer (mBC) at the ASCO 2025 Annual Meeting
FLORENCE, Italy and NEW YORK, May 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Menarini Group ("Menarini"), a leading international pharmaceutical and diagnostics company, and Stemline Therapeutics, Inc. ("Stemline"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Menarini Group, focused on bringing transformational oncology treatments to cancer patients, will present updated preliminary efficacy and safety results from the Phase 1b/2 ELEVATE study in patients with estrogen receptor-positive (ER+), HER2-negative (HER2-) locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer (mBC). The ELEVATE study was designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral-oral combination treatment options to overcome different resistance mechanisms observed in ER+/HER2- mBC and improve patient outcomes. Additionally, various other trial-in-progress updates will be presented, investigating elacestrant's potential to become an endocrine therapy (ET) backbone across the spectrum of breast cancer. These data will be presented at the 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting. The ELEVATE study is comprised of six treatment regimens evaluating elacestrant in combination with CDK4/6 inhibitors (palbociclib, abemaciclib and ribociclib) and with inhibitors of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway (everolimus, alpelisib and capivasertib). ELEVATE results reported at ASCO 2025 (abstract 1070/49) include updated efficacy data which demonstrate favorable preliminary progression-free survival (PFS) from the elacestrant plus ribociclib and the elacestrant plus everolimus cohorts. A recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) was determined to be elacestrant 345 mg plus ribociclib 400 mg. The RP2D of elacestrant 345 mg plus everolimus 7.5 mg was previously reported. "It is encouraging to see the positive preliminary efficacy and safety results when everolimus and ribocilib, respectively, are combined with elacestrant. These findings are consistent with the promising elacestrant plus abemaciclib cohort data from the same study that was presented last December, which also demonstrated favorable preliminary efficacy and safety in this setting," said Hope S. Rugo, MD, Director, Women's Cancers Program and Division Chief, Breast Medical Oncology, City of Hope Comprehensive Cancer Center. "As the progression-free survival data and safety data continue to mature across the various cohorts of the ELEVATE study, we are encouraged by elacestrant's potential to become an endocrine therapy backbone in combination regimens for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer." Additional data reported separately (abstract 1079/58) provided updated Phase 1b/2 safety results from four cohorts of the ELEVATE study, including elacestrant plus ribociclib, everolimus, alpelisib, and capivasertib. These updated preliminary results show that the combinations are consistent with the known safety profiles of each targeted therapy plus standard of care endocrine therapy. "These data continue to underscore the potential value of elacestrant as a combination partner in the ER+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer treatment landscape," said Elcin Barker Ergun, CEO of the Menarini Group. "We are also exploring the potential of elacestrant in other patient populations, including our currently enrolling ELEGANT study, which is designed to assess its potential benefit in early breast cancer patients with high risk of recurrence." In addition, the company will be presenting other data at the ASCO Annual Meeting. See below for a complete list of Menarini Stemline abstracts.

ELEVATE (NCT05563220) is a phase 1b/2 clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of elacestrant combined with alpelisib, everolimus, capivasertib, palbociclib, ribociclib or abemaciclib. ELECTRA (NCT05386108) is an open-label phase 1b/2, multicenter study evaluating elacestrant in combination with abemaciclib in patients with ER+, HER2- breast cancer. The phase 2 portion evaluates this treatment regimen in patients with brain metastases. ELCIN (NCT05596409) is a phase 2 trial evaluating the efficacy of elacestrant in patients with ER+, HER2- advanced/metastatic breast cancer who received one or two prior hormonal therapies and no prior CDK4/6 inhibitors in the metastatic setting. ADELA (NCT06382948) is a phase 3 randomized, double-blinded trial evaluating elacestrant in combination with everolimus in patients with ER+, HER2- mBC with ESR1-mut tumors. Elacestrant is also being evaluated in additional investigator-led trials, in trials conducted in collaboration with other companies, in metastatic breast cancer as well as in early disease.

Additionally, various other trial-in-progress updates will be presented, investigating elacestrant's potential to become an endocrine therapy (ET) backbone across the spectrum of breast cancer. These data will be presented at the 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting. The ELEVATE study is comprised of six treatment regimens evaluating elacestrant in combination with CDK4/6 inhibitors (palbociclib, abemaciclib and ribociclib) and with inhibitors of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway (everolimus, alpelisib and capivasertib). ELEVATE results reported at ASCO 2025 (abstract 1070/49) include updated efficacy data which demonstrate favorable preliminary progression-free survival (PFS) from the elacestrant plus ribociclib and the elacestrant plus everolimus cohorts. A recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) was determined to be elacestrant 345 mg plus ribociclib 400 mg. The RP2D of elacestrant 345 mg plus everolimus 7.5 mg was previously reported. "It is encouraging to see the positive preliminary efficacy and safety results when everolimus and ribocilib, respectively, are combined with elacestrant. These findings are consistent with the promising elacestrant plus abemaciclib cohort data from the same study that was presented last December, which also demonstrated favorable preliminary efficacy and safety in this setting," said Hope S. Rugo, MD, Director, Women's Cancers Program and Division Chief, Breast Medical Oncology, City of Hope Comprehensive Cancer Center. "As the progression-free survival data and safety data continue to mature across the various cohorts of the ELEVATE study, we are encouraged by elacestrant's potential to become an endocrine therapy backbone in combination regimens for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer." Additional data reported separately (abstract 1079/58) provided updated Phase 1b/2 safety results from four cohorts of the ELEVATE study, including elacestrant plus ribociclib, everolimus, alpelisib, and capivasertib. These updated preliminary results show that the combinations are consistent with the known safety profiles of each targeted therapy plus standard of care endocrine therapy. "These data continue to underscore the potential value of elacestrant as a combination partner in the ER+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer treatment landscape," said Elcin Barker Ergun, CEO of the Menarini Group. "We are also exploring the potential of elacestrant in other patient populations, including our currently enrolling ELEGANT study, which is designed to assess its potential benefit in early breast cancer patients with high risk of recurrence." In addition, the company will be presenting other data at the ASCO Annual Meeting. See below for a complete list of Menarini Stemline abstracts.
