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.

3 Small-Cap Stocks That Concern Us

SHCO Cover Image

Small-cap stocks can be incredibly lucrative investments because their lack of analyst coverage leads to frequent mispricings. However, these businesses (and their stock prices) often stay small because their subscale operations make it harder to expand their competitive moats.

Luckily for you, our mission at StockStory is to help you make money and avoid losses by sorting the winners from the losers. Keeping that in mind, here are three small-cap stocks to swipe left on and some alternatives you should look into instead.

Soho House (SHCO)

Market Cap: $1.73 billion

Boasting fancy locations in hubs such as NYC and Miami, Soho House (NYSE: SHCO) is a global hospitality brand offering exclusive private member clubs, hotels, and restaurants.

Why Are We Hesitant About SHCO?

  1. Number of members has disappointed over the past two years, indicating weak demand for its offerings
  2. Cash burn makes us question whether it can achieve sustainable long-term growth
  3. 5× net-debt-to-EBITDA ratio shows it’s overleveraged and increases the probability of shareholder dilution if things turn unexpectedly

At $8.84 per share, Soho House trades at 9.7x forward EV-to-EBITDA. If you’re considering SHCO for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.

Funko (FNKO)

Market Cap: $286 million

Boasting partnerships with media franchises like Marvel and One Piece, Funko (NASDAQ: FNKO) is a company specializing in creating and distributing licensed pop culture collectibles.

Why Do We Avoid FNKO?

  1. Products and services aren't resonating with the market as its revenue declined by 9.7% annually over the last two years
  2. Eroding returns on capital from an already low base indicate that management’s recent investments are destroying value
  3. Limited cash reserves may force the company to seek unfavorable financing terms that could dilute shareholders

Funko’s stock price of $4.11 implies a valuation ratio of 20.4x forward P/E. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than FNKO.

AMN Healthcare Services (AMN)

Market Cap: $702.9 million

With a network of thousands of healthcare professionals ranging from nurses to physicians to executives, AMN Healthcare (NYSE: AMN) provides healthcare workforce solutions including temporary staffing, permanent placement, and technology platforms for hospitals and healthcare facilities across the United States.

Why Are We Out on AMN?

  1. Declining travelers on assignment over the past two years indicate demand is soft and that the company may need to revise its strategy
  2. Incremental sales over the last five years were much less profitable as its earnings per share fell by 8.4% annually while its revenue grew
  3. Waning returns on capital imply its previous profit engines are losing steam

AMN Healthcare Services is trading at $18.34 per share, or 17.7x forward P/E. To fully understand why you should be careful with AMN, check out our full research report (it’s free).
