• Negative Sentiment: Sidoti cut full‑year EPS forecasts: FY2026 was lowered to $5.25 (from $5.45) and FY2027 to $6.30 (from $6.40), reducing the company’s forward earnings base and likely pressuring valuation multiples. MarketBeat SLVM
• Negative Sentiment: Sidoti made notable downward revisions to near‑quarter estimates, including Q4 2027 (to $1.40 from $1.87) and Q4 2026 (to $1.23 from $1.52), a sizeable cut that directly reduces expected short‑term profitability and likely prompted selling. MarketBeat SLVM
• Negative Sentiment: Several smaller downward tweaks across Q1–Q3 2026 and FY2025 also lower the multi‑year outlook versus prior assumptions, increasing execution risk versus sell‑side forecasts and contributing to the negative bias in the stock. MarketBeat SLVM
