CHUYN/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images AMZN stock: FQ4 earnings met with BRK disclosure I last covered Amazon.com, Inc. ( AMZN ) on January 31 with an article titled " Amazon Q4 2025 Earnings: How Bullwhip Pressures Inventory And Margin .” The article served as a preview for the earnings report (ER) the company filed for its 4 th fiscal quarter of 2025 on Feb. 5 and rated the stock as a Hold. Since then, there have been a few new catalysts evolving the company. In the rest of this follow-up, I will focus on two particular changes: the operation update provided in its actual FQ4 earnings report and also the position change disclosed by Berkshire Hathaway (BRK), which is often also interpreted by the investing community as a market event. After examining these developments, I keep seeing a mixed picture blending future profit growth with intensifying capital requirements and thus reiterate my hold rating. Let me start with a brief recap of the FQ4 ER and my observations. As shown in the snapshot below, Amazon’s earnings in FQ4 2025 continued the consistent growth on both lines. The company concluded the year with a strong FQ4 2025 revenue of $213.39B, representing a double-digit 13.6% year-over-year (YOY) increase and a sizable $2.15B beat. Earnings per share grew to $1.95, a YOY growth of around 4.5% compared to the $1.85 it earned in FQ4 2024. Seeking Alpha However, the picture is not all positive. For reasons detailed in my last article, the margin did suffer a noticeable contraction, as shown in the second chart. Net profit margin retreated to 9.93%, compared to about 12% in the past quarter (which is also the record in the past 3 years). More importantly, the ER also revealed surging CAPEX and shrinking free cash flow (FCF) in the near future, which is a key cause for BRK’s significant reduction of its AMZN position in my mind, as detailed next.

Donald Trump on Thursday announced he was replacing Kristi Noem as the homeland security secretary, capping weeks of bipartisan complaints about her leadership after immigration agents killed two US citizens and reports emerged that she was involved in a personal relationship with a top deputy. Noem’s firing was the first major personnel shake-up of Trump’s second term. The president made it public in a post on Truth Social, in which he said Markwayne Mullin, a Republican Oklahoma senator, would take over from Noem starting on 31 March. Noem, who Trump said “has served us well, and has had numerous and spectacular results (especially on the Border!)”, would become special envoy for “the Shield of the Americas”, a security initiative Trump said he planned to announce over the weekend. “It’s humbling,” Mullin said to reporters on Thursday. “Because it happened quick, I had to call my dad, and it’s just pretty humbling when you start thinking about it, a little kid from west Oklahoma getting to serve in the president’s cabinet. That is pretty neat.” In a statement on X, Noem thanked Trump for appointing her to the new role, while promoting her record leading the department. News of the firing broke just before she spoke to a group of police officials in Nashville, but Noem did not bring the subject up on stage. Democrats have cheered Noem’s departure, with Hakeem Jeffries, the House minority leader, saying at a press conference: “Good riddance. She was a disaster.” But Jeffries said it would not change Democrats’ stance towards funding the homeland security department. It has been partly shut down since mid-February after Senate Democrats blocked a spending measure because it did not include new rules governing the conduct of immigration agents, which they had been demanding in response to the shooting deaths of two US citizens in Minneapolis. Jeffries said: “A change in personnel is not sufficient. We need a change in policy that has to be bold, dramatic, transformati...

(FTCI) Q4 2025 Management View Yann Brandt, President and CEO, reported that "we have achieved another quarter of strong growth in Q4 and continue to position the company for long-term success" with results at the high end of targets and the "highest quarterly level since the first quarter of 2023." Brandt highlighted a 26% sequential revenue growth and stated, "Gross margin for the quarter was our best as a public company and one of the best in company history." He emphasized the company’s commercial momentum, noting FTC Solar was added to the approved vendor lists of four of the top ten EPCs in Q4, bringing the total to eight. Brandt also announced a 1 GW supply agreement with a leading U.S. developer and operator, along with a multi-year MSA with Lubanzi in South Africa for 840 MW. He stated, "we have had improving net bookings for the past 3 quarters and had a significant increase in the fourth quarter with a positive book-to-bill." The CEO underscored product innovation and labor efficiency, claiming, "our tracker...can be built from piles to mounted modules with an unmatched efficiency of 0.053 labor hours per module." Brandt reaffirmed the goal to become a top three tracker provider. Cathy Behnen, CFO, reported, "revenue came in at $32.9 million, which was above the midpoint of our guidance range of $30 million to $35 million." She detailed that GAAP gross profit was $6.9 million or 21% of revenue, and non-GAAP gross profit was $7.7 million or 23.4% of revenue. Behnen highlighted, "On an adjusted EBITDA basis, we almost achieved breakeven, posting a loss of just $300,000, which is our strongest result since becoming a public company." She also pointed out the contracted backlog now stands at $491 million, with $60 million added since November 12. Outlook Behnen outlined Q1 2026 targets: "revenue between $20 million and $25 million, non-GAAP gross profit between negative $0.5 million and positive $2.3 million...non-GAAP ...

Moon ATS, the company’s overnight trading platform, gained traction in the fourth quarter, “as a result of our teams onboarding subscribers and educating the global trading community.” The launch of OTCID basic market in July contributed to a 17% revenue growth in Corporate Services in Q4. Coulson stated, “OTCID enhances our offerings for corporate clients, filling a gap below the premium OTCQX and OTCQB markets.” Preparing for tokenized and digital asset securities was named a strategic priority for 2026. Coulson noted, “It is vital that we prepare to support our FINRA member broker-dealer market data customers and other market participants as they innovate around these new technologies.” The Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share, increased from prior quarters, and the company will “opportunistically resume buying back shares in the public market.” CFO Antonia Georgieva reported, “We generated $32.7 million in gross revenues, up 15% as compared to the prior year period...

Earnings Call Insights: Rand Capital (RAND) Q4 2025 Management View CEO Daniel Penberthy highlighted that 2025 was a year of "disciplined execution and capital allocation," with a focus on balance sheet strength and risk management over sheer growth. Penberthy stated, "We closed the year with more than $23 million of total liquidity and no debt outstanding. That gives us significant flexibility and allows us to move decisively as market conditions improve and compelling opportunities present themselves." Penberthy reported capital recycling as a core aspect of Rand’s model, noting "we generated approximately $17.8 million from repayments and select realizations, while deploying $6.6 million into new and follow-on investments." The CEO detailed a net asset value per share of $17.57 at year-end, with valuation adjustments impacting NAV, particularly due to Tilson Technology’s bankruptcy, but emphasized a "transparent and conservative approach" to valuations. Penberthy reiterated Rand’s commitment to shareholder returns, referencing a total cash dividend payout of $1.72 per share for 2025, including a special dividend of $0.56 per share declared in Q4, and announced the Q1 2026 dividend of $0.29 per share. The portfolio had a fair value of $48.5 million across 20 companies, with 79% in debt investments at year-end, reflecting a shift toward income generation and an annualized weighted average yield of 11.3% on debt investments. Penberthy identified a new $3.25 million investment in Bauer Sheet Metal and Fabricating, including a 13% term loan and warrants representing 12% ownership interest. The CEO noted, "We are positioned to scale the portfolio prudently and pursue attractive risk-adjusted returns as the M&A environment continues to evolve." CFO Margaret Brechtel stated, "Total investment income was $1.3 million, down 40% compared with the prior year period. The decrease primarily reflects a 46% reduction in interest income due to the repayment of 5 debt instruments ...

Coneyl Jay/DigitalVision via Getty Images Karman Holdings Inc. ( KRMN ) is positioned across multiple fronts to deliver substantial growth over the coming years, particularly following its recently closed acquisition of Seemann Composites and Materials Sciences Corporation. With operations supporting missile defenses, hypersonic missile development, unmanned aerial vehicles and counter-UAVs, and marine, I believe Karman should realize multiple growth tailwinds over the coming years. Given the heightened demand for munitions replenishment and marine vessels, I am recommending KRMN shares with a Strong Buy rating with a price target of $117/share at 68.92x eFY26 EV/aEBITDA. Karman Holdings Operational Update Corporate Filings The big announcement for q4’25 was the acquisition of Seemann Composites and Materials Sciences Corporation, closing on February 5, 2026. Seemann Composites and MSC were acquired to advance Karman’s capabilities in deep-sea and deep-space technology, establishing a Maritime Defense Systems market segment. Seemann has a long history of developing composites for surface and submarine as a critical supplier of the US Navy. The acquisition was for a sum of $220mm, $210mm of which was in cash and $10mm in common stock. I believe that the deal is particularly appealing for two reasons: Increased focus on domestic shipbuilding. Advancing materials production for launch vehicles, particularly for hypersonic missiles. Seemann brings a variety of capabilities like resin infusion, automated fiber placement, fabric weaving, fatigue tests, and 3D printing. These programs should complement Karman’s resin solutions in becoming a more vertically integrated materials producer for applications like solid rocket motor nozzles and submarine bow domes that require significant temperature resistance. On April 9, 2025 , President Donald Trump signed an executive order to bolster domestic shipbuilding capabilities in order to rebuild US naval vessels. Though this is an ...

Amazon is starting to roll out its redesigned Fire TV mobile app to customers, the company announced on Thursday. While you could previously only use the app as a backup remote, the updated experience lets you browse and discover content directly from your phone, manage your watchlist on the go, and play titles on your TV from the mobile app. “The updated app turns smartphones into a second screen for discovering what to watch next, making it easy to add a friend’s show recommendation to a watchlist even when away from home,” Amazon wrote in an email to TechCrunch. “This seamless integration between mobile and TV creates a more flexible and convenient viewing experience for Fire TV customers to find what they want to watch, fast.” The app is rolling out now in the U.S., Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Spain, and the U.K. Image Credits:Amazon Amazon says the refreshed look matches the new Fire TV user interface that it launched last month, which was designed to put more focus on content, while also simplifying navigation. The updated user interface introduced rounded corners, varied gradients, consistent typography, and increased spacing between content, while also providing more room for pinned apps. The top navigation bar has been simplified into categories marked with clear icons for Movies, TV, Live TV, Sports, and News. The search button is more easily accessible to the left of the Home tab. Within these tabs, Fire TV shows the content you’re already watching alongside recommendations from your subscribed services, organized in rows labeled “For You.” The tabs also feature free movies, top movies and shows, and other paid content you might like. The changes to the app and the user interface come in response to the surge of streaming content, which has made it harder to keep track of what’s available on each service, requiring platforms like Fire TV to function more as discovery hubs rather than just places to launch streaming apps.

The cybersecurity stock was already trading substantially lower over the last 6 months due to fears unexplained by the financial results. My investment thesis is ultra Bullish on SentinelOne, with signs some AI-related acquisitions are paying off. Source: Finviz AI Threats Cybersecurity firms spent the last week explaining why the sector isn't going to be replaced by Claude Code. Heading into the week, cybersecurity was a sector expected to greatly benefit from the growth of AI and agentic AI to protect corporate platforms and data, but a lot of the leading stocks had produced big losses. In fact, the stock crashes of sector leaders got so bad CrowdStrike ( CRWD ) CEO George Kurtz took to social media to explain the business wasn't going to be upended by vibe coding. Even Claude seems to suggest Anthropic isn't going to replace cybersecurity products. Source: Twitter/X As highlighted in the last earnings call , SentinelOne has now seen the business completely shift away from endpoint security. The cybersecurity company now has ~50% of quarterly bookings from other areas like data, Purple AI, and Cloud Security Services. SentinelOne gets high scores for AI security via Purple AI and a new emerging threat in agentic AI via the acquisition of Prompt Security back in 2025. Software Analyst Cyber Research listed the company as a leader in Unified Agentic Defense Platforms (UADP), right behind the much larger Palo Alto Networks ( PANW ). Source: Software Analyst Cyber Research Even research from Oppenheimer provided indications that SentinelOne saw strong growth to start 2026 after ending 2025 on a strong note. The analyst noted the partner checks actually showed the business growing at a high 20% growth rate, with Purple AI beating the Charlotte AI solution from CrowdStrike. Big Quarter Nex...

Indiana Governor Signs Bill Allowing Crypto In Retirement Plans Authored by Stephen Katte via Cointelegraph , Indiana will start allowing certain retirement and savings plans to include crypto investments and has enacted stronger legal protections for the crypto industry under a newly signed bill. Governor Mike Braun signed House Bill 1042 into law on Tuesday, after it passed the legislature last Thursday . The legislation requires Indiana’s state public retirement and savings plans to offer self-brokerage accounts with at least one crypto investment option by July 2027. According to the bill’s description, this requirement applies to the legislators’ defined contribution plan, the Hoosier START plan, certain public employees’ retirement funds, and specified teachers’ retirement fund plans. More institutions are adopting digital assets, with Bitbo estimating that over 3.7 million Bitcoin (worth $258 billion) are held by publicly traded and private companies, exchange-traded funds and governments. Protections for crypto payments and mining The bill also includes provisions to protect the rights of crypto users. Under the legislation, public agencies — except the Department of Financial Institutions — are barred from adopting or enforcing rules that ban crypto payments, self-custody or mining. The bill also clarifies that a money transmitter license isn’t required for apps and software protocols that allow non-custodial transfers. Local governments, such as counties, municipalities, or townships, also can’t single out crypto mining businesses or home miners with special restrictions not applied to similar businesses or activities in the same zoning area. Noise from crypto mining operations has caused friction in other states. Residents in Hood County, Texas, attempted to form a new municipality to regulate noise from a local mining facility last year. Access to retirement funds a boon for crypto At the federal level, President Donald Trump’s August executive order “De...

This Wall Street analyst is doing its best to buck up UPS's stock price. RJ hearts UPS Reiterating his $127 price target on UPS today, reports StreetInsider.com, Raymond James analyst Patrick Tyler Brown argues UPS is a "buy" despite warning investors it will experience zero revenue growth -- and worse profit margins than feared -- in H1. Growth may not happen in H1, says Brown. But H2 should see "low-single-digit y/y growth" and substantially higher operating margins of 11.5% as the company recovers from its "deliberate exit from low-value, retailer-controlled last-mile volume" work for customers such as Amazon.com, and replaces this revenue with more profitable work. At the same time, UPS is reconfiguring its network to, among other things, favor use of automated facilities that offer "27% better productivity vs. non-automated." Ultimately, the analyst sees UPS emerging from this realignment, focusing its business on providing "premium service" and enjoying "better customer economics," leading to renewed sales growth and better profits.
