Conestoga Small Cap Composite made the following comment about CSW Industrials, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSWI) in its Q3 2023 investor letter:
“CSW Industrials, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSWI): Based in Dallas, TX, CSWI is focused on niche, value added products. Over the last seven years CSWI, through mergers, acquisitions and some divestitures, has transformed itself from a diversified industrial company into a business heavily tied to residential HVAC maintenance and repair (55% of sales vs. 24% in fiscal 2016). We see this as an underfollowed, earnings compounder with high market share in a stable growth repair -and-replace end market, high single-digit organic revenue growth, 20+% EBITDA margin and 30% return on investment.”
