Dycom beats...

…and gets beaten. This looks like one of those irrational things where they beat AND they said next quarter will be above current expectations. Curious.

Dycom said it earned $1.24 a share on revenue of $659.3 million. Analysts were expecting the company to earn $1.01 a share on revenue of $625.6 million.

For the upcoming second quarter, Dycom said it expects to earn between 52 cents and 60 cents a share, well ahead of the 39 cent consensus. Revenue guidance between $530 million and $550 million is also comfortably ahead of the $528 million analysts are expecting.

Nonetheless, the shares slumped today after rising in after-hours trading Monday.

There are a couple nice analyst reviews there too that are very positive an provide a nice explanation of what the company does. It meets our 1YPEG criteria.

I am adding more, wish I had time to have found this while it was tanking in the AM.
