Karman Holdings Inc. (KRMN) Presents at Morgan Stanley's 14th Annual Laguna Conference Transcript

The short-seller firm accused it of having weak internal controls. It also came under fire for its acquisition policy.

Baron Small Cap Fund (the Fund) was up 12.57% (Institutional Shares) in the second quarter, trailing the Russell 2000 Growth Index (the Index) by 13.14%, as the Index was up 25.71%. Shares increased during the quarter as Vertiv reported strong Q1 financial results (adjusted earnings per share increased 83% year-over-year) and increased fiscal year guidance fueled by organic sales growth of around 30%. Planet Fitness, Inc. , the leading high-value, low-cost gym operator, detracted from performance in the second quarter after the company lowered full-year guidance following weaker-than-expected member additions in the first quarter.

Karman Holdings has seen its share price halve, driving revenue multiples down from 30x to 10x amid continued 50% topline growth. Karman's backlog has surged to $1.3 billion, excluding potential long-term defense agreements worth over $1 billion, supporting robust future visibility. Recent M&A, including the $94 million Walker Precision deal, and strong bookings have driven constructive sentiment despite leverage at 3.7x and high earnings multiples.
