Fiscal Year 2026
-
Fiscal 2026 saw strong results despite lower revenues and margins due to U.S. tariffs, with the Groupe LAR acquisition boosting backlog and Canadian project mix. Fiscal 2027 is expected to bring revenue growth but margin stagnation, as tariff uncertainties persist.
-
Q3 and year-to-date results were down year-over-year due to U.S. tariffs and lower margins, but the order backlog grew significantly, aided by the Groupe LAR acquisition. Integration efforts and investments are expected to drive future synergies and margin improvements.
-
Revenue and profitability declined sharply year-over-year due to U.S. tariffs and reduced fabrication hours, but a strong order backlog and new Canadian contracts support future growth. The pending Groupe LAR acquisition and nuclear certification are expected to diversify and strengthen operations.
-
Revenue and net income declined sharply year-over-year due to U.S. tariff uncertainty, but a strong order backlog and growing Canadian client momentum support expectations for a rebound in the second half of the fiscal year. Cash position remains robust, with planned Capex projects ahead.
Fiscal Year 2025
-
The acquisition expands reach in the hydroelectric sector, diversifies the client base, and reduces U.S. market exposure. Significant investments in LAR’s facilities and integration of best practices are expected to drive operational efficiencies and backlog growth by 2027.
-
Revenue and profitability improved year-over-year, with gross margin rising to 31.6% and net income up to $56.8 million. Tariffs and trade uncertainty are expected to lower revenue and margins in fiscal 2026, but a strong balance sheet and backlog support continued profitability.
-
Q3 and year-to-date results showed strong revenue and margin growth, with net income up 75.9% year-over-year and a robust backlog supporting future quarters. Management remains optimistic about growth, is prioritizing share repurchases, and expects to announce a new contract by February.
-
Second quarter revenue declined due to client delays, but gross margin and net income rose sharply year-over-year. Margins are expected to normalize as postponed installation work resumes, with a strong order backlog and cash position supporting future growth.
-
Revenue grew 34% year-over-year to CAD 107.4 million, with net income nearly tripling to CAD 15.3 million and gross margin rising to 29.2%. Management expects continued growth, a record backlog, and announced a share repurchase and dividend increase.
