About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Company Overview

Pioneering abuse-deterrent technology in a field plagued by addiction concerns, Collegium Pharmaceutical (NASDAQ: COLL) develops and markets specialty medications for treating moderate to severe pain, including abuse-deterrent opioid formulations.

Sales Growth

Examining a company’s long-term performance can provide clues about its quality. Any business can have short-term success, but a top-tier one grows for years. Over the last five years, Collegium Pharmaceutical grew its sales at an impressive 17.3% compounded annual growth rate. Its growth beat the average healthcare company and shows its offerings resonate with customers.

Collegium Pharmaceutical Quarterly Revenue

Long-term growth is the most important, but within healthcare, a half-decade historical view may miss new innovations or demand cycles. Collegium Pharmaceutical’s annualized revenue growth of 12.5% over the last two years is below its five-year trend, but we still think the results suggest healthy demand. Collegium Pharmaceutical Year-On-Year Revenue Growth

This quarter, Collegium Pharmaceutical reported robust year-on-year revenue growth of 22.7%, and its $177.8 million of revenue topped Wall Street estimates by 2.9%.

Looking ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to grow 13.2% over the next 12 months, similar to its two-year rate. This projection is admirable and suggests the market sees success for its products and services.

Operating Margin

Operating margin is one of the best measures of profitability because it tells us how much money a company takes home after subtracting all core expenses, like marketing and R&D.

Collegium Pharmaceutical has managed its cost base well over the last five years. It demonstrated solid profitability for a healthcare business, producing an average operating margin of 19.6%.

Looking at the trend in its profitability, Collegium Pharmaceutical’s operating margin decreased by 1.1 percentage points over the last five years, but it rose by 8.4 percentage points on a two-year basis. Still, shareholders will want to see Collegium Pharmaceutical become more profitable in the future.

Collegium Pharmaceutical Trailing 12-Month Operating Margin (GAAP)

In Q1, Collegium Pharmaceutical generated an operating profit margin of 12.2%, down 21.9 percentage points year on year. This contraction shows it was less efficient because its expenses grew faster than its revenue.

Earnings Per Share

We track the long-term change in earnings per share (EPS) for the same reason as long-term revenue growth. Compared to revenue, however, EPS highlights whether a company’s growth is profitable.

Collegium Pharmaceutical’s EPS grew at an astounding 46.4% compounded annual growth rate over the last five years, higher than its 17.3% annualized revenue growth. However, this alone doesn’t tell us much about its business quality because its operating margin didn’t expand.

Collegium Pharmaceutical Trailing 12-Month EPS (Non-GAAP)

Diving into Collegium Pharmaceutical’s quality of earnings can give us a better understanding of its performance. A five-year view shows that Collegium Pharmaceutical has repurchased its stock, shrinking its share count by 6.4%. This tells us its EPS outperformed its revenue not because of increased operational efficiency but financial engineering, as buybacks boost per share earnings. Collegium Pharmaceutical Diluted Shares Outstanding

In Q1, Collegium Pharmaceutical reported EPS at $1.49, up from $1.42 in the same quarter last year. This print beat analysts’ estimates by 2.8%. Over the next 12 months, Wall Street expects Collegium Pharmaceutical’s full-year EPS of $6.45 to grow 11.4%.

Key Takeaways from Collegium Pharmaceutical’s Q1 Results

We enjoyed seeing Collegium Pharmaceutical beat analysts’ revenue expectations this quarter. We were also happy its EPS outperformed Wall Street’s estimates. Overall, this print had some key positives. The stock remained flat at $27.27 immediately following the results.

So should you invest in Collegium Pharmaceutical right now? The latest quarter does matter, but not nearly as much as longer-term fundamentals and valuation, when deciding if the stock is a buy. We cover that in our actionable full research report which you can read here, it’s free.
