The earnings call reveals mixed signals: strong revenue growth and cash flow, but concerns about supply chain challenges, customer behavior changes, and integration risks. The Q&A section highlights management's confidence in growth, but also avoidance of direct answers on key issues. The lack of a share repurchase program and absence of a new partnership announcement further temper optimism. Given the small-cap nature of the company, the stock is likely to experience some volatility, but overall, a neutral movement (-2% to 2%) is expected over the next two weeks.
