Over 40% of their business is in aerospace-defence, with 27% of this business from government contracts. Another 30% of business is from utillities, including renewables. Another 20% comes from building testing systems for many industries, including testing pacemakers. Their report last May beating sales and earnings. Management raised full-year guidance. They just bought a company to grow their shipbuilding business. Trades at 26x PE for 2026, not cheap, but offers 15% earnings growth in 2026. Also good is having little Wall Street coverage, so you can start a position now before Wall St. catches on.
An earnings momentum play. Lots of potential to grow topline and bottom line. Doesn't own yet, but plans to buy with proceeds from sale of other US stocks. Yield is 0.17%.
