Argan Q1 Is Another Win For Fellow Shareholders
Argan Inc (AGX) Q1 earnings were a beat and a success, a solid win for shareholders rewarded with a pop in share price, up 8% on the announcement. The company continues to hold no debt, practice prudent cash management, and build its backlog, now at a record and headline-worthy $2B.

Argan: Fundamental Momentum Continues, But Is It Sustainable?
Argan is enjoying strong fundamental momentum, with record order book growth and robust results driven by power sector tailwinds.

The company's lack of a true economic moat makes its extraordinary growth unsustainable, as rising competition will likely erode margins and returns over time.
