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.

5 Must-Read Analyst Questions From Progyny’s Q2 Earnings Call

PGNY Cover Image

Progyny’s second quarter results demonstrated stable growth, with management highlighting a return to more typical seasonal patterns in member activity and engagement across its employer client base. The company attributed revenue gains to increased client adoption and a wider range of covered lives, as well as the successful integration of recent acquisitions. CEO Pete Anevski emphasized that new client wins spanned diverse industries, reflecting broad appeal for Progyny’s fertility and family-building solutions. The company also pointed to strong progress in expanding its product portfolio, supporting both member outcomes and cost control.

While we enjoy listening to the management's commentary, our favorite part of earnings calls are the analyst questions. Those are unscripted and can often highlight topics that management teams would rather avoid or topics where the answer is complicated. Here is what has caught our attention.

Our Top 5 Analyst Questions From Progyny’s Q2 Earnings Call

  • Daniel Christopher Clark (Leerink Partners) asked if early sales commitments were being measured on a gross or net basis, to which CEO Pete Anevski clarified that comparisons exclude the large former client, focusing on organic growth.
  • Jailendra P. Singh (Truist) inquired whether smaller employers are increasingly adopting multiple services and if larger employers are slower to decide. Anevski explained that pipeline timing varied by employer size, but both small and large wins were materializing.
  • Unidentified Analyst (Bank of America) questioned how average revenue per ART cycle would trend in the back half of the year. CFO Mark Livingston noted that early-year revenue per cycle is inflated by initial consults and that full-year averages should normalize.
  • Sarah Elizabeth James (Cantor) asked if the higher revenue per new client was due to broader product uptake or industry utilization differences. Anevski confirmed it was driven by higher-utilizing industries rather than broader product adoption.
  • David Michael Larsen (BTIG) probed on changes in service mix, such as egg freezing versus transfers. Anevski stated that mix had returned to normal seasonal patterns, with no significant shifts impacting results.

Catalysts in Upcoming Quarters

Looking ahead, the StockStory team will be monitoring (1) the pace of new client additions and the demographic mix of covered lives during the remainder of the selling season, (2) progress on the rollout and adoption of new women’s health services, and (3) the impact of operational investments on gross margins as the company prepares for 2026 launches. The evolution of strategic partnerships, such as with Amazon, will also be a key area of focus.

Progyny currently trades at $22.75, down from $23.02 just before the earnings. Is the company at an inflection point that warrants a buy or sell? The answer lies in our full research report (it’s free).
