Why Does SPX Technologies Spark Debate?

SPX Technologies (NYSE: SPXC) is an industrial conglomerate catering to the energy, manufacturing, automotive, and aerospace sectors.

Two Things to Like:

1. Skyrocketing Revenue Shows Strong Momentum

Long-term growth is the most important, but within industrials, a stretched historical view may miss new industry trends or demand cycles. SPX Technologies’s annualized revenue growth of 13.5% over the last two years is above its five-year trend, suggesting its demand recently accelerated. SPX Technologies Year-On-Year Revenue Growth

2. Outstanding Long-Term EPS Growth

One Reason to be Careful:

Slow Organic Growth Suggests Waning Demand In Core Business

We can better understand Gas and Liquid Handling companies by analyzing their organic revenue. This metric gives visibility into SPX Technologies’s core business because it excludes one-time events such as mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures along with foreign currency fluctuations - non-fundamental factors that can manipulate the income statement.

Over the last two years, SPX Technologies’s organic revenue averaged 6.1% year-on-year growth. This performance slightly lagged the sector and suggests it may need to improve its products, pricing, or go-to-market strategy, which can add an extra layer of complexity to its operations.
