6 terms
Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA(1) $5.3 $8.2 • Q1 2026 capital returned to stockholders"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
free cash flow financial
"Spok has generated nearly $1.1 billion in cumulative free cash flow."
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
managed services financial
"Stable Re-occurring Software Maintenance, Managed Services and Wireless Segment Revenue"
Managed services are when a business hires an outside provider to run and maintain a specific ongoing function—commonly IT, cybersecurity, networks, or back-office tasks—under a contract that includes monitoring, updates and problem resolution. For investors this matters because it creates predictable costs and recurring revenue for the provider while reducing operational risk and capital spending for the client, much like hiring a building superintendent to keep systems running so management can focus on growth.
deferred tax assets financial
"Significant deferred tax assets to shield income from federal taxes for many years"
An item on a company’s balance sheet showing tax benefits it can use later to reduce future tax bills — think of it as an IOU from the tax system for past losses or timing differences. It matters to investors because it can boost future cash flow and apparent value if the company expects profits ahead, but those benefits vanish if the company cannot generate taxable income and the asset must be reduced.
Total Addressable Market financial
"Total Addressable Market 11.24 CAGR from 2026 to 2035 Growth Rate"
Total addressable market is the total potential sales opportunity for a product or service if it were to reach every possible customer. It helps investors understand the maximum size of the market and the growth potential for a business. Think of it as the entire pie available to be shared, indicating how big the opportunity could be.
