Research Alert: Run Posts Strong Margins, But Cash Burn Disappointed
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:RUN reported Q1 sales of $722M (+43% Y/Y), beating consensus estimates of ~$639M, though we view this as largely an accounting presentation issue rather than fundamental business acceleration. Operational metrics show significant volume declines with storage capacity installed (282 MWh, -15% Y/Y), solar capacity (154 MW, -19% Y/Y), and subscriber additions (17,665, -25% Y/Y) all declining. We view RUN's storage-first positioning as strategic for long-term distributed energy opportunities, with storage attachment rate reaching a record 73% (+400 bps Y/Y), though monetization remains in early innings. Management maintained 2026 cash generation guidance of $250M-$450M despite Q1 cash burn of $59M (vs. +$56M in Q1 2025). We view the improvement in net subscriber value to $11,892 (+14% Y/Y) as encouraging, driven by larger system sizes and lower cost of capital, but broader industry headwinds are playing an increasingly significant role.

Research Alert: Ftnt Surpassed Expectations On Product Revenue Outperformance; Raises Outlook
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:FTNT delivered exceptional Q1 2026 results with revenue of $1.85B beating consensus by $120M and non-GAAP EPS of $0.82 exceeding estimates by $0.20. Product revenue accelerated to $645M (+40.5% Y/Y) significantly outpacing service revenue growth of 11%, while billings surged 30.5% to $2.09B. The robust appliance demand suggests active security infrastructure refreshes, though we highlight potential pulled-forward demand amid supply chain challenges and higher memory prices. Operating leverage remained strong with non-GAAP operating margin expanding 160 bps to 36%, while record cash generation of $1.08B in operating cash flow underscores the business model's strength. We expect the SASE evolution and "SASE Firewall" convergence to serve as key differentiators in the competitive landscape. Management raised 2026 revenue guidance to $7.71B-$7.87B from $7.50B-$7.70B, above consensus of $7.6B, and lifted EPS guidance to $3.10-$3.16 from $2.94-$3.00, beating Street forecasts of $3.00.
