Investors will be focused on the continued strong performance of its Security division and any indications of recovery or stabilization within the Healthcare segment, which management previously noted needed increased sales efforts and investment. The company's significant $1.8 billion backlog and forward P/E ratio of 25.6 suggest cautious optimism regarding its future growth trajectory.
