Actionable Insight ◆ Mixed

The large EPS miss (-152%) relative to consensus is a clear negative signal for near-term price action, but the strong revenue growth trajectory and FCC certification for PowerBridge Pro+ provide a positive narrative. Traders should watch for guidance on Q3 revenue and margin improvement, as well as updates on Fortune 10 and government deployments.
