As of Aug 18, 2026. Market Open.
Doing a good job, underlying business strong. Revenue up 17% last quarter, and cash generated per share rose 25%. Launched AI tool to make maintenance decisions faster and less expensive. Most interesting angle is new partnership with Waymo. 9/10 fundamentally for her. Analysts see ~30% upside.
Reports next week on August 5. Don't add before then.
Can't see anything specific, but we're seeing a fairly consistent trend in markets where a stock consolidates after making a significant move. That's really positive for the stock longer term, as it builds a base and then goes to the next level.
Business has been doing phenomenally well. Growth in mid-teens to low 20% over last few years, which probably continues for some time. More large companies are farming out fleet management to EFN, and EFN is offering more services (which boosts revenue, much of which is recurring).
He'd say to watch it. If it starts to break down more, then maybe something's changed. But sideways action is often just a case of consolidation.
The stock is up 27% in the past year though down a bit since the US election. It reports earnings Feb 26, before the next tariff 'deadline'. So earnings may be the more important factor if buying in the next month. We think $26 would be attractive, barring any other news.

Finances big equipment, heavy machinery for highways etc. This is the 2nd coming of Steve Hudson, the leasing business. He is obviously a whiz kid at this. Back for the 2nd act and he is the Street darling. There is lots of M&A so all the houses like it. It is going to be a hot stock and has done very well. Will probably continue to do well.
