Analysis · III · Trade & Services
ISG beat its own Q3 targets on both lines: revenue of $65.1M rose 4.4% and adjusted EBITDA of $10.0M jumped 19% to a 15.4% margin, the best in four years. The standout is cash generation — $12.3M from operations, the most in five years, lifting the cash balance 20% to $28.5M while still returning $6.9M to shareholders through buybacks and dividends. With the Q4 guide of $64-65M revenue and $9-10M adjusted EBITDA, growth continues but at a slower margin than Q3's 15.4%, so the read is steady rather than accelerating. AI-related revenue crossing $30M for the first time gives the growth story a concrete number to track.
