LB Consumer Discretionary 2 recaps
Q1 2026 May 8, 2026

Shares declined 1.5% following the quarter despite management’s raised full-year guidance, likely reflecting investor caution about the anticipated Q1 sequential softness and modest commercial activity early in the year.

Key takeaways
  • Q1 revenue and adjusted EBITDA grew approximately 16% year-over-year, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 88%.
  • Sequential results were softer versus Q4, consistent with seasonality in service-related payments linked to operator activity.
