Q & A Highlights
Warning! GuruFocus has detected 2 Warning Sign with BOM:543526.
Q: Can you provide an update on the capital improvement project that led to production delays and when the delayed orders are expected to ship? A: Yes, the capital improvement project took longer than anticipated, but it is now fully operational and running at historical throughput levels. We expect the delayed revenues to convert in Q2 and throughout the year. Supply chain disruptions have also been resolved. (Bruce Dames, CEO)
Q: Could you elaborate on the liquid load bank opportunity in data centers and the expected revenue potential? A: Liquid load banks are used to test cooling and electrical systems in liquid-cooled data centers. We recently launched these products and are building a pipeline of opportunities. We aim to capture a 20-25% market share in this growing segment. (Bruce Dames, CEO)
Q: What are your gross margin expectations for the next quarter and the rest of the year? A: We anticipate some margin headwinds in Q2 due to tariffs, but expect pricing adjustments to offset these costs in the latter half of the year. We aim to maintain gross margins around 44.8% by year-end. (Bruce Dames, CEO)
Q: Can you discuss the strong demand at FATI and what has changed since the last fiscal quarter? A: FATI has seen strong demand, particularly in electrification opportunities in Europe and the Middle East. The backlog has doubled since the acquisition, driven by regulations and investments in electrification to reduce emissions. (Bruce Dames, CEO)
Q: Could you provide more details on your capital allocation priorities, including M&A and share buybacks? A: Our M&A pipeline is active, and we are looking for opportunities to complement our strategy. We will continue share repurchases if there are no attractive M&A opportunities. We have flexibility in capital allocation, focusing on growth and debt reduction. (John Schott, CFO)
