Actionable Insight ▲ Bullish

The record results and strong cash position support the dividend and potential M&A. Monitor the TSG defense segment for further growth and the impact of the capital gain normalization in H2. The stock may see positive momentum from the beat, but the lack of consensus estimates limits surprise magnitude.
