2 priorityies extracted from earnings transcripts (as of 2026-05-08).
- 1.Focus on organic growth and acquisitionsgrowthbehind0% progress
2/11: “The Company anticipates organic growth complemented by a strategic approach to acquisitions.”
Why this status
Stated in 3 of last 3 quarters. Revenue grew from $748.3M in 2024-Q1 to $1.026B in 2025-Q3, indicating progress in organic growth. However, the focus on acquisitions has not been explicitly detailed in recent disclosures, suggesting limited substantive delivery on this front.

Why this status
Newly stated in 2025-Q4. Operating income decreased from $225M in 2025-Q3 to $101M in 2025-Q4, indicating a decline rather than improvement in profitability. This suggests limited progress on the stated priority of enhancing profitability during peak season.
