Why Innodata Stock Tumbled by 10% Last Month
Innodata (INOD) reported Q2 revenue of $92.1M, up 58% YoY, and GAAP net income of $14.4M, beating estimates. Despite strong results, its stock fell 10% in August due to a new CEO appointment and a $300M stock offering. The company's reliance on a few key clients is a concern.
