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.

SCHL Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of educational publishing and media company Scholastic (NASDAQ: SCHL) jumped 21.3% in the afternoon session after the company reported fourth-quarter financial results that beat Wall Street's expectations and provided strong guidance for the upcoming fiscal year. 

The publishing and education company reported fourth-quarter adjusted earnings of 87 cents per share, which surpassed the analyst consensus estimate of 85 cents. Quarterly revenue also exceeded expectations, coming in at $508.3 million against a forecast of $494.58 million, marking a 7% increase from the prior year. Investors were further encouraged by the company's optimistic forecast for its fiscal year 2026. Scholastic provided guidance for revenue to grow between 2% and 4% and targeted significant growth in Adjusted EBITDA, a measure of operating profitability, to a range of $160 million to $170 million. This positive outlook, combined with the strong quarterly performance, fueled the stock's significant gain.

What Is The Market Telling Us

Scholastic’s shares are very volatile and have had 20 moves greater than 5% over the last year. But moves this big are rare even for Scholastic and indicate this news significantly impacted the market’s perception of the business.

The biggest move we wrote about over the last year was 4 months ago when the stock gained 15.2% on the news that the company delivered strong first-quarter (fiscal Q3 2025) results, with profits significantly exceeding expectations as both EPS and EBITDA outperformed Wall Street's estimates. 

A key driver of this performance was the continued strength in Children's Book Publishing and Distribution, which saw a 5% increase in sales, largely driven by growth in Book Fairs and Book Clubs. However, challenges persisted in Education Solutions, where sales declined 16% due to ongoing weakness in the supplemental curriculum market. This segment's struggles contributed to the company's softer revenue growth, with overall sales missing expectations and full-year EBITDA guidance falling short of forecasts. Still, we think this was a decent quarter featuring some areas of strength but also some blemishes.

Scholastic is up 24.1% since the beginning of the year, but at $26.23 per share, it is still trading 18.1% below its 52-week high of $32.04 from September 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Scholastic’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $1,031.

Here at StockStory, we certainly understand the potential of thematic investing. Diverse winners from Microsoft (MSFT) to Alphabet (GOOG), Coca-Cola (KO) to Monster Beverage (MNST) could all have been identified as promising growth stories with a megatrend driving the growth. So, in that spirit, we’ve identified a relatively under-the-radar profitable growth stock benefiting from the rise of AI, available to you FREE via this link.
