Recent Updates on SXI stock

Standex International has recently acquired McStarlite, a specialist in complex sheet metal aerospace components, which is expected to positively impact its earnings. The acquisition aligns with Standex’s strategic focus on expanding its Engineering Technologies Group. Following the acquisition and positive Q2 earnings that surpassed expectations, DA Davidson raised Standex’s price target, citing continued M&A benefits and internal organic growth from the Amran/Narayan acquisition. The recent earnings call highlighted strong adjusted operating margins and growth in fast-growth markets. However, challenges such as a decline in organic revenue, particularly in the automotive and industrial markets, and reduced cash flow due to acquisition expenses were noted. Despite these challenges, Standex remains optimistic, projecting higher revenues for upcoming quarters and updating long-term financial targets, aiming for significant growth by 2028.
