Company Overview

With roots dating back to 1912 as the Piston Ring Company, SPX Technologies (NYSE: SPXC) supplies specialized infrastructure equipment for HVAC systems and detection and measurement applications across industrial, commercial, and utility markets.

Revenue Growth

A company’s long-term performance is an indicator of its overall quality. Any business can put up a good quarter or two, but many enduring ones grow for years. Thankfully, SPX Technologies’s 15.6% annualized revenue growth over the last five years was incredible. Its growth surpassed the average industrials company and shows its offerings resonate with customers, a great starting point for our analysis.

Long-term growth is the most important, but within industrials, a half-decade historical view may miss new industry trends or demand cycles. SPX Technologies’s annualized revenue growth of 14.6% over the last two years aligns with its five-year trend, suggesting its demand was predictably strong.

SPX Technologies also reports organic revenue, which strips out one-time events like acquisitions and currency fluctuations that don’t accurately reflect its fundamentals. Over the last two years, SPX Technologies’s organic revenue averaged 8.1% year-on-year growth. Because this number is lower than its two-year revenue growth, we can see that some mixture of acquisitions and foreign exchange rates boosted its headline results.

This quarter, SPX Technologies reported robust year-on-year revenue growth of 22.9%, and its $679 million of revenue topped Wall Street estimates by 5.8%.

Looking ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to grow 10% over the next 12 months, a deceleration versus the last two years. Still, this projection is noteworthy and implies the market sees success for its products and services.

Operating Margin

Operating margin is an important measure of profitability as it shows the portion of revenue left after accounting for all core expenses — everything from the cost of goods sold to advertising and wages. It’s also useful for comparing profitability across companies with different levels of debt and tax rates because it excludes interest and taxes.

SPX Technologies has been an efficient company over the last five years. It was one of the more profitable businesses in the industrials sector, boasting an average operating margin of 12.5%. This result isn’t surprising as its high gross margin gives it a favorable starting point.

Looking at the trend in its profitability, SPX Technologies’s operating margin rose by 10.7 percentage points over the last five years, as its sales growth gave it immense operating leverage.

In Q2, SPX Technologies generated an operating margin profit margin of 16.9%, up 1.3 percentage points year on year. The increase was encouraging, and because its gross margin actually decreased, we can assume it was more efficient because its operating expenses like marketing, R&D, and administrative overhead grew slower than its revenue.

Earnings Per Share

Revenue trends explain a company’s historical growth, but the long-term change in earnings per share (EPS) points to the profitability of that growth — for example, a company could inflate its sales through excessive spending on advertising and promotions.

SPX Technologies’s EPS grew at 22.4% compounded annual growth rate over the last five years, higher than its 15.6% annualized revenue growth. This tells us the company became more profitable on a per-share basis as it expanded.

Diving into SPX Technologies’s quality of earnings can give us a better understanding of its performance. As we mentioned earlier, SPX Technologies’s operating margin expanded by 10.7 percentage points over the last five years. This was the most relevant factor (aside from the revenue impact) behind its higher earnings; interest expenses and taxes can also affect EPS but don’t tell us as much about a company’s fundamentals.

Like with revenue, we analyze EPS over a shorter period to see if we are missing a change in the business.

For SPX Technologies, its two-year annual EPS growth of 22.1% is similar to its five-year trend, implying strong and stable earnings power.

In Q2, SPX Technologies reported adjusted EPS of $2.02, up from $1.65 in the same quarter last year. This print beat analysts’ estimates by 9.3%. Over the next 12 months, Wall Street expects SPX Technologies’s full-year EPS to grow 14.7% from $7.43 to $8.52.
