Analysis · III · Trade & Services
Second-quarter revenue came in at $65.5 million, topping consensus by 4.2%, while adjusted EBITDA rose 13% year-over-year to $9.4 million. The board authorized a new $30 million share repurchase program and declared a $0.045 quarterly dividend. Operating cash flow for the half was positive at $4.5 million, but that marks a steep drop from $12.9 million a year ago. The company also wrote off a $5.6 million receivable—though a corresponding reversal of subcontractor costs meant no net income impact—and disclosed a separate $4.7 million receivable currently in litigation. The buyback signals confidence, but the cash flow compression and collection risks warrant attention.
