Executive summary

  • Q1 2026 net income was $43.6M ($1.39/share), reversing a prior-year loss, driven by divestiture gains and improved Memorialization segment performance.

  • Memorialization segment remains core, with sales rising to $204.2M, strong performance, and successful Dodge acquisition integration.

  • Industrial Technologies segment sales declined to $69M, impacted by divestitures, engineering challenges, and ongoing Tesla litigation.

  • Brand Solutions now consists solely of Propelis investment, following SGK Business divestiture.

Financial highlights

  • Q1 2026 consolidated sales were $284.8M, down from $402M year-over-year due to divestitures.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
