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 Unprofitable Stocks That Fall Short

SIRI Cover Image

Unprofitable companies face headwinds as they struggle to keep operating expenses under control. Some may be investing heavily, but the majority fail to convert spending into sustainable growth.

Finding the right unprofitable companies is difficult, which is why we started StockStory - to help you navigate the market. That said, here are three unprofitable companiesthat don’t make the cut and some better opportunities instead.

Sirius XM (SIRI)

Trailing 12-Month GAAP Operating Margin: -19.2%

Known for its commercial-free music channels, Sirius XM (NASDAQ: SIRI) is a broadcasting company that provides satellite radio and online radio services across North America.

Why Do We Think SIRI Will Underperform?

  1. Sluggish trends in its core subscribers suggest customers aren’t adopting its solutions as quickly as the company hoped
  2. Incremental sales over the last five years were much less profitable as its earnings per share fell by 36.9% annually while its revenue grew
  3. Shrinking returns on capital suggest that increasing competition is eating into the company’s profitability

At $22.62 per share, Sirius XM trades at 7.7x forward P/E. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than SIRI.

Quest Resource (QRHC)

Trailing 12-Month GAAP Operating Margin: -1.5%

Recycling corporate waste to help companies be more sustainable, Quest Resource (NASDAQ: QRHC) is a provider of waste and recycling services.

Why Is QRHC Risky?

  1. Customers postponed purchases of its products and services this cycle as its revenue declined by 2.4% annually over the last two years
  2. Waning returns on capital from an already weak starting point displays the inefficacy of management’s past and current investment decisions
  3. Limited cash reserves may force the company to seek unfavorable financing terms that could dilute shareholders

Quest Resource’s stock price of $1.56 implies a valuation ratio of 5.6x forward P/E. Check out our free in-depth research report to learn more about why QRHC doesn’t pass our bar.

Myriad Genetics (MYGN)

Trailing 12-Month GAAP Operating Margin: -50.1%

Founded in 1991 as one of the pioneers in translating genetic discoveries into clinical applications, Myriad Genetics (NASDAQ: MYGN) develops genetic tests that assess disease risk, guide treatment decisions, and provide insights across oncology, women's health, and mental health.

Why Should You Sell MYGN?

  1. Annual revenue growth of 5.5% over the last five years was below our standards for the healthcare sector
  2. Push for growth has led to negative returns on capital, signaling value destruction, and its decreasing returns suggest its historical profit centers are aging
  3. Diminishing returns on capital from an already low starting point show that neither management’s prior nor current bets are going as planned

Myriad Genetics is trading at $7.10 per share, or 83x forward P/E. If you’re considering MYGN for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.
