ScanSource has shown solid growth and smart acquisitions, but mixed financials with dropping sales, high costs, and potentially overpriced stock raise concerns. Despite a strong 2024 performance, long-term returns lag behind the S&P 500, and the stock lacks dividends, making it less attractive for income-focused investors. Recent acquisitions like Resourcive and Advantix aim to boost high-margin, recurring revenue, but high acquisition costs and weak sales numbers pose risks.
SCSC witnesses year-over-year declines in both its top and bottom lines in fiscal 2024 due to weak demand.
