When does CERT report earnings, and what happens after?

Expected to report Thu Feb 25, before the open (in 107 days).

What an earnings report is: every 3 months, a company tells everyone how much it sold and earned. We read the figures, the outlook, and how the stock moved after.

What CERT reported on Nov 5, 2026

The quarter

Sales of $94.9M, 4% more than a year ago.

“The $1.3 million decrease in net loss was primarily driven by a $4.0 million increase in revenue and a $2.0 million decrease in cost of revenue, partially offset by a $3.1 million increase in operating expenses, a $1.4 million increase in tax expense, and a $0.2 million increase in total other expense.”
