Mind you the working capital movement is not ideal. We'll see how the market reacts... could be up 30% or down 30%... who knows.

Seriously? lol I don't know how this moves tomorrow...but down 30% isn't a possibility. We're not seriously thinking that growth is bad now because it requires working capital...especially when everybody complained how this company couldn't stop shrinking (and repaying debt). These guys killed it. Is it all sustainable. Maybe not. But mostly.

You can't eat non-cash producing revenue growth... I've tried; doesn't taste very good.

To be clear there was some positive FCF in the quarter but certainly not as much as would be indicated by accounting net income or 'adjusted' EBITDA. And this is probably the best quarter (FCF aside) since I've been around in past 5+ years. 1 data point isn't a trend... and hope isn't an investment strategy... but I HOPE this continues!

The results were very good. Gross profit dollars and margins are trending up. The working capital will sort itself out and is not surprising given the upward pressure on inflation in Q2. Accounts receivable is up slightly from Q2 last year but revenue growth has improved significantly y/y.
