Iridium Communications: A Great Company At A Fair Price IRDM
- Iridium Communications has done really well in recent months between landing another large contract and increasing financial guidance. - This has sent shares roaring higher, but this has a downside to it as well. - The stock seems to be more or less fairly valued at this time, even though the firm remains excellent for long-term investors seeking stability.
...As revenue has risen, profitability has also increased. Net income of $4.6 million in the latest quarter was higher than the $3.8 million reported the same time one year earlier. Operating cash flow in the latest quarter came in at $99.8 million. That's 32.7% above the $75.2 million generated just one year earlier. Meanwhile, EBITDA for the company expanded from $94.8 million in the second quarter of 2021 to $105.9 million the same time this year. Naturally, this strong bottom line performance has had a positive impact on the company's results for the first half of the year as a whole.
Due to how things are turning out so far this year, the management team at Iridium Communications decided recently to increase their guidance for the current fiscal year.
