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

Started in 2011 to tackle the problem of high prescription drug costs in America, GoodRx (NASDAQ: GDRX) operates a digital platform that helps consumers find lower prices on prescription medications through price comparison tools and discount codes.

Revenue Growth

A company’s long-term sales performance can indicate its overall quality. Any business can put up a good quarter or two, but the best consistently grow over the long haul. Over the last five years, GoodRx grew its sales at a decent 11.1% compounded annual growth rate. Its growth was slightly above the average healthcare company and shows its offerings resonate with customers.

GoodRx Quarterly Revenue

Long-term growth is the most important, but within healthcare, a half-decade historical view may miss new innovations or demand cycles. GoodRx’s recent performance shows its demand has slowed as its annualized revenue growth of 3.6% over the last two years was below its five-year trend. GoodRx Year-On-Year Revenue Growth

We can better understand the company’s revenue dynamics by analyzing its number of customers, which reached 5.7 million in the latest quarter. Over the last two years, GoodRx’s customer base averaged 2.9% year-on-year growth. Because this number is in line with its revenue growth, we can see the average customer spent roughly the same amount each year on the company’s products and services. GoodRx Customers

This quarter, GoodRx’s revenue grew by 1.2% year on year to $203.1 million, falling short of Wall Street’s estimates.

Looking ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to grow 4.8% over the next 12 months, similar to its two-year rate. While this projection suggests its newer products and services will spur better top-line performance, it is still below average for the sector.

Today’s young investors won’t have read the timeless lessons in Gorilla Game: Picking Winners In High Technology because it was written more than 20 years ago when Microsoft and Apple were first establishing their supremacy. But if we apply the same principles, then enterprise software stocks leveraging their own generative AI capabilities may well be the Gorillas of the future. So, in that spirit, we are excited to present our Special Free Report on a profitable, fast-growing enterprise software stock that is already riding the automation wave and looking to catch the generative AI next.

Adjusted Operating Margin

GoodRx has been an efficient company over the last five years. It was one of the more profitable businesses in the healthcare sector, boasting an average adjusted operating margin of 25.9%.

Analyzing the trend in its profitability, GoodRx’s adjusted operating margin decreased by 5.8 percentage points over the last five years, but it rose by 2.7 percentage points on a two-year basis. Still, shareholders will want to see GoodRx become more profitable in the future.

GoodRx Trailing 12-Month Operating Margin (Non-GAAP)

In Q2, GoodRx generated an adjusted operating margin profit margin of 25.8%, in line with the same quarter last year. This indicates the company’s overall cost structure has been relatively stable.

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.

GoodRx’s EPS grew at an unimpressive 3.1% compounded annual growth rate over the last five years, lower than its 11.1% annualized revenue growth. This tells us the company became less profitable on a per-share basis as it expanded.

GoodRx Trailing 12-Month EPS (Non-GAAP)

Diving into the nuances of GoodRx’s earnings can give us a better understanding of its performance. As we mentioned earlier, GoodRx’s adjusted operating margin was flat this quarter but declined by 5.8 percentage points over the last five years. This was the most relevant factor (aside from the revenue impact) behind its lower earnings; interest expenses and taxes can also affect EPS but don’t tell us as much about a company’s fundamentals.

In Q2, GoodRx reported adjusted EPS at $0.09, up from $0.08 in the same quarter last year. Despite growing year on year, this print missed analysts’ estimates. Over the next 12 months, Wall Street expects GoodRx to perform poorly. Analysts forecast its full-year EPS of $0.35 will hit $0.42.

Key Takeaways from GoodRx’s Q2 Results

We struggled to find many positives in these results. Its EPS missed and its customer base fell short of Wall Street’s estimates. Overall, this quarter could have been better. The stock traded down 5.2% to $4.12 immediately following the results.

GoodRx’s latest earnings report disappointed. One quarter doesn’t define a company’s quality, so let’s explore whether the stock is a buy at the current price. 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.
