Frequency Electronics (FEIM) Q4 FY2026 — Frequency Electronics (FEIM) — a niche maker of atomic clocks and precision timing for satellites, missiles and secure military comms — reported an ugly fiscal Q4: gross margin collapsed to ~1% (vs a normal ~30%) and EPS came in at -$0.50 versus a +$0.27 estimate, a big miss, on a $3.8M Elcom inventory write-down and pre-revenue investment. Strip the one-of...

BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) Q3 FY2026 — BitMine Immersion (BMNR), the largest corporate holder of Ethereum on earth (~5% of all ETH), trades at roughly a 13% discount to the value of its own coins — you buy a dollar of Ethereum for about 87 cents. But it carries an ~$8.2B unrealized loss from buying ETH near the top, and funds itself with 12%-cost preferred to earn a 2.7% staking yield....

Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico (PAC) Q2 2026 — Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico (GAP), the Mexican airport operator, grew Q2 2026 EBITDA 8.4% to a record 69% margin and net income 9% — even as passenger traffic fell 5.6% — but the stock was labeled an earnings 'miss' because per-share profit fell ~7% after it issued ~90M shares (+17.7%) to buy full control of the CBX border bridge. The ADR was r...

AngioDynamics (ANGO) Q4 FY2026 — AngioDynamics beat on its fiscal Q4 (revenue $86.6M, +8%; adjusted loss of $0.07, 4 cents better than feared), grew full-year Med Tech 18%, and guided FY27 revenue above consensus. The stock jumped ~11% to a 52-week high, led by NanoKnife (+64.5%) as Medicare coverage for its prostate-ablation therapy went live July 5. AngioDynamics quietly reinvented itself: it so...

Phoenix Education Partners (PXED) Q3 FY2026 — Phoenix Education Partners (parent of the University of Phoenix) reported flat Q3 revenue of $271.8M, beat on adjusted EPS at $1.43, but cut its full-year revenue guide and saw margins compress — blaming AI-powered search for disrupting its student-recruitment funnel. The stock fell ~9.5% to ~$31. The single number that governs this stock: 88.6% of Pho...

Ericsson (ERIC) Q2 2026 — Ericsson's Q2 2026 adjusted gross margin rose to 48.4% (Networks 50.4%, a multi-year high) and EPS met consensus, but the ADR fell ~13% — its worst earnings reaction in three years — after management warned that AI-driven memory and component cost inflation will squeeze Q3 Networks margins to 48-50%, revenue came in light, and North America declined. Ericsson beat on prof...

Fastenal Company (FAST) Q2 2026 — Fastenal grew Q2 2026 revenue 14.7% to $2.39B with daily sales up 14.7%, but EPS of $0.33 only met consensus, gross margin fell 75bps to 44.6% on tariff costs, and it trimmed two full-year targets. The stock slipped ~2.2% to ~$44.75. Nobody disputes Fastenal is a wonderful business — 31% return on capital, a genuine vending-machine and Onsite moat, a fortress bala...

Kestra Medical Technologies (KMTS) Q4 FY2026 — Kestra Medical grew fiscal Q4 revenue 66% to $28.6M (FY26 +59% to $95.1M) and expanded gross margin to 54.8% — its 10th straight quarter of gains — but its adjusted EBITDA loss widened to $27M, EPS missed, and it guided FY27 revenue to $137M (+44%, a deceleration). The stock fell ~8.5% to ~$22. Kestra makes the ASSURE wearable defibrillator and is the...

Aehr Test Systems (AEHR) Q4 FY2026 — Aehr Test Systems beat on its fiscal Q4 (revenue $18.8M, +34%; non-GAAP EPS $0.11 vs a small expected loss), posted record bookings of $60.7M and a $100.6M effective backlog, and guided fiscal 2027 revenue to $130-150M — 160-200% growth. The stock rose ~6% to $72. Going into the print, Aehr was the classic story stock: 52x sales, falling revenue, and no FY27 nu...

Grupo Aeroméxico (AERO) Q2 2026 — Aeroméxico posted a record second-quarter revenue of $1.479B (+12.6%) on capacity up just 1.9% — and still swung to a $58M net loss, as jet fuel expense jumped 79.9% to $494M. The stock fell 8.5% to $15.30, now 25% below its November IPO price. Aeroméxico's board policy permits hedging 40-60% of its jet fuel. It has hedged ZERO for six straight years — and this wa...

Delta Air Lines (DAL) Q2 2026 — Delta posted record adjusted revenue of $17.7B (+14%) and beat with adjusted EPS of $1.56 — but EPS fell 26% YoY on the highest quarterly fuel bill in its history, it affirmed rather than raised full-year guidance, and the stock slipped ~2% after a 76% run to record highs. Delta is no longer a commodity airline — premium cabins now out-earn the main cabin, the Ameri...

Nurix Therapeutics (NRIX) Q2 FY2026 — Nurix Therapeutics reported a fiscal Q2 net loss of $(0.81) per share on ~$9M of collaboration revenue — but the story is the June Roche partnership on its BTK degrader bexobrutideg ($700M upfront, up to $2.3B), which lifts pro-forma cash to ~$1.14B and has driven the stock ~200% off its lows to near $25. Nurix is a clinical-stage protein-degradation biotech w...

WD-40 Company (WDFC) Q3 FY2026 — WD-40 grew fiscal Q3 sales 24% to $195M, delivered adjusted EPS of $2.33 (GAAP $2.24) that crushed the ~$1.58 estimate, raised full-year guidance and added a $100M buyback — sending the stock ~15% higher to a fresh all-time high near $276. WD-40 is a genuinely wide-moat cult brand — ~85% awareness, 56%+ gross margins, real pricing power, and a global runway — that...

Simply Good Foods (SMPL) Q3 FY2026 — Simply Good Foods (Quest, Atkins, OWYN) beat with adjusted EPS of $0.42 vs $0.35, but net sales fell 6% to $357M, an $82M impairment drove a GAAP loss of $(0.58), Atkins collapsed 24.6%, and full-year guidance implies a down year. Simply Good Foods has fallen ~62% from ~$34 to ~$13. It's cheap (~6x EV/EBITDA), cash-generative, and squarely in the protein-snacki...

AZZ Inc. (AZZ) Q1 FY2027 — AZZ — North America's largest independent hot-dip galvanizer — grew Q1 sales 6.3% to a record $448.5M, beat with adjusted EPS of $1.85, raised full-year guidance on all three metrics, and hiked its dividend 20%; the stock jumped ~7% after hours. AZZ is a high-margin, essential industrial — galvanizing and coil coating that keeps steel from rusting — riding an infrastruct...

PriceSmart (PSMT) Q3 FY2026 — PriceSmart grew Q3 revenue 12.5% to ~$1.48B with comparable sales up 10.7%, but adjusted EPS of $1.28 landed just short of the ~$1.32 estimate and the stock — near an all-time high at ~37x earnings — dipped slightly. PriceSmart is the 'Costco of Latin America' — 57 membership warehouse clubs across 12 countries, a sticky membership annuity, a net-cash balance sheet, a...

Levi Strauss (LEVI) Q2 FY2026 — Levi Strauss beat on Q2 sales (+8% to $1.56B) and adjusted EPS ($0.28, +27%), raised full-year guidance for the fourth straight time and hiked its dividend 14% — yet the stock fell ~5% because the raised EPS midpoint (~$1.49) landed just below the most bullish estimates after a near-double off the lows. Levi's has transformed into a DTC-led denim-lifestyle brand — d...

Helen of Troy (HELE) Q1 FY2027 — Helen of Troy — owner of OXO, Hydro Flask, Osprey and Vicks — grew Q1 sales +8% and beat a rock-bottom estimate, but adjusted EPS fell 58% to $0.17 and the stock dropped ~10% to ~$25, down over 80% from its peak. Helen of Troy trades at roughly 7x forward earnings after an 80%+ collapse — a portfolio of genuinely good brands wrapped in ~3.5x leverage, tariff exposu...

General Mills (GIS) Q4 FY2026 — FY2026 net sales fell 5% (organic -2%) and adjusted EPS dropped 16% to $3.55 amid soft volumes, private label, and GLP-1 fears — and the stock has slid ~30% to ~$37, pushing the yield to ~6.6%. General Mills (Cheerios, Blue Buffalo, Betty Crocker) has been cut down to ~$37 (~10x earnings, ~6.6% covered yield) on real packaged-food headwinds. But the market is pricin...

FactSet (FDS) Q3 FY2026 — FactSet fell ~60% from its 2025 high (~$450) to ~$185 on AI-disruption fears — but Q3 revenue rose 6.4%, organic ASV grew 7.1%, EPS beat, and guidance was reaffirmed. FactSet is a wide-moat financial-data compounder (recurring ASV, ~34% margins, 27 straight years of dividend increases) that got de-rated from ~30x to ~15x on fears that AI kills the data terminal. The Q3 nu...

MSC Industrial (MSM) Q3 FY2026 — Q3 sales rose 7.8% to $1.05B and EPS jumped 41% to $1.44 as adjusted operating margin expanded to 10.6% — and the stock has run 40%+ off its lows to ~$120. MSC Industrial is a textbook cyclical recovery: sales re-accelerating (+4% → +7.8%), margins climbing (8.4% → 10.6%), EPS +41%. The catch is the price — the stock has run 40%+ to ~25x forward, and the Street's a...

UniFirst (UNF) Q3 FY2026 — UniFirst is being acquired by Cintas for $155 cash + 0.772 Cintas shares (~$295 today), but the stock trades near $274 — an ~8% spread reflecting FTC antitrust risk after a June 11 Second Request. This isn't a fundamentals story anymore — it's a merger-arbitrage bet. Cintas, the #1 uniform-rental company, is buying UniFirst. Shareholders approved on June 11, but the FTC...

Lindsay (LNN) Q3 FY2026 — Revenue fell 5% to $160.8M and EPS slipped to $1.53 as the ag down-cycle pressured irrigation, while infrastructure grew 8% and the MENA project lifted backlog. Lindsay is a rare thing: a net-cash, moat-owning compounder (Zimmatic irrigation + the Road Zipper) aggressively buying back its own stock right through a farm recession. The catch is the price — roughly 23x troug...

Greenbrier (GBX) Q3 FY2026 — Revenue fell 32% to $576.5M and missed estimates, EPS dropped to $0.60, and management trimmed full-year guidance — but the lease fleet grew 23% at 99% utilization. Greenbrier's earnings have collapsed from $6.35 a share last year toward ~$3 this year, guidance was just cut, and the Street rates it a Sell. Yet it's quietly becoming a rail-leasing company, trades below...

National Beverage (FIZZ) FY2026 — Shares popped double digits after National Beverage declared a $3.25/share special dividend — roughly 10% of the stock — even as case volumes fell 6.7%. The maker of LaCroix is one of the most under-covered stocks on the market: founder Nick Caporella owns ~73%, management holds no earnings calls, and almost no Wall Street analyst follows it. Sales were flat, volu...
