Analysis · BAND · Technology
A strong second quarter saw revenue climb 22% to $220M and Adjusted EBITDA rise 27% to $28M, beating expectations and driving a full-year guidance raise. Reflecting confidence in cash generation, the company also amended its credit agreement to double the restricted payments cap. Yet the retirement of General Counsel R. Brandon Asbill adds to a pattern of insider departures and selling — he recently filed to sell $1.92M in stock, and the Chief People Officer sold all shares in May. While the earnings strength is clear, the executive turnover and insider selling warrant attention.
