Chris Boyer and Reed Smith walk through why the gap is structural rather than a marketing problem, then close with David Middendorf at Monigle on what Volume 9 actually says about where consumers are right now. Why engagement in health and engagement with healthcare have decoupled, and what the avoidance number among the most engaged segment actually means The structural reasons the operating model can't win this space, from P&L logic to service-line measurement to where wellness programs sit on the org chart The DTC and subscription brands that took categories that used to be referrals inside a health system, and built continuous relationships around them Why a majority of consumers now believe a technology company is more likely to revolutionize healthcare than a traditional system or provider Trust, local knowledge, the provider relationship, the clinical record, and what it would take to actually deploy those as competitive advantages David Middendorf on the "window not a wave" framing, AI as connective tissue for what Monigle calls a Living System of Experiences, and the three keys to the future: listening, personalization, wellness David Middendorf leads the Humanizing Brand Experience research at Monigle. Volume 9 is the ninth annual installment of the firm's flagship study of healthcare consumer behavior. He joins the show to walk through what the new data is saying and what health system brand and experience leaders should do about it. If your strategy deck still treats the space between sick visits as future state, the disruption has already happened and you missed it.

Elevator Pitches, Company Presentations & Financial Results from Publicly Listed European Companies
eDreams ODIGEO's FY 2026 Key TakeawaysPresented by David Elizaga, CFOIn this latest financial results presentation on seat11a, David Elizaga presents the company's FY 2026 financial results and provides an update on Prime subscriber growth, profitability development, artificial intelligence initiatives, and the company's long-term strategic roadmap.Record Profitability and Continued Prime GrowtheDreams ODIGEO delivered results ahead of expectations during FY26, supported by continued growth of its Prime subscription platform. Prime membership increased by 9% to 7.9 million subscribers, while Adjusted EBITDA rose by 29% to a record €172.3 million. Cash EBITDA reached €157 million, exceeding management's target for the year. Prime-related revenue now represents approximately 75% of total Cash Revenue Margin, underlining the growing importance of the subscription model within the business and the continued transformation away from a traditional online travel agency model.Prime Platform Remains the Core Growth EngineA major focus of the presentation is the continued evolution of the Prime platform. During FY26, the company continued its transition from annual upfront subscription payments toward annual subscriptions with monthly instalments. While this temporarily impacted certain cash metrics, management highlighted that the underlying profitability, subscriber economics, and operational performance of the business continued to strengthen throughout the year. The subscription-based model remains central to eDreams' strategy of increasing customer loyalty, recurring revenue visibility, and long-term customer lifetime value.FY30 Roadmap Targets Significant ExpansionThe company also introduced a new long-term roadmap extending through FY30. Management outlined plans for substantial subscriber growth, expanding Prime membership toward approximately 13 million subscribers while continuing to broaden the business beyond its traditional European flight market. By FY30, management expects a significantly more diversified business mix, supported by growth in non-flight products, international opportunities, and a broader travel ecosystem. The roadmap reflects the company's ambition to further strengthen its position as a subscription-led travel platform with increasing scale and recurring revenue characteristics.Artificial Intelligence Increasingly Embedded Across the BusinessArtificial intelligence remains a key component of the company's operating model. eDreams highlighted more than a decade of AI development and discussed how AI is improving software development, customer service, pricing capabilities, marketing productivity, and customer acquisition. During FY26, AI-assisted productivity increased significantly, while support automation and content generation continued to scale across the organization. Management views artificial intelligence as both an operational efficiency tool and a strategic enabler that can support customer experience improvements, marketing effectiveness, and scalable growth over the long term.Read more on: https://seat11a.com/company/edreams-odigeo-financial-results-fy-2026/ ▶️ Other videos:Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/T&CThis publication is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.

Fred Davidson, President and CEO of Impact Silver (TSX.V:IPT) (OTCQB: ISVLF), joins us to outline the key takeaways from the Q1 2026 financial and operations, and provides an update on the current production and exploration upside at the Zacualpan Silver-Gold District, as well as the move-forward plan on the Plomosas Zinc-Lead-Silver Mine in Chihuahua, Mexico. The Company has 4 underground mines and 1 open-pit mine all feeding into the Guadalupe processing plant in the Zacualpan Silver-Gold District; with a number of other past-producing silver and gold mines across their district-scale land package being explored for future development. Q1 2026 Highlights: The Company reported Revenue increased to $31.2 million, nearly three times $10.7 million in Q1 2025, driven by higher silver prices, higher grades, and increased mill throughput at the Zacualpan Silver Operation. Gross profit grew almost ten-fold to $20.3 million, from $2.2 million in Q1 2025. Net income for the quarter was $11.3 million, or $0.03 per share, marking a return to profitability following a net loss of $0.1 million in Q1 2025. At quarter-end, IMPACT held $45.3 million in cash, $4.0 million in guaranteed investment certificates ("GICs"), working capital of $48.0 million, and carried no long-term debt. Fred outlined that the company delivered their strongest quarterly net income in the history of the Company — all while continuing to invest in development and exploration. While the higher silver price environment is clearly part of the story, he pointed to the bigger story being what is happening on the ground at Zacualpan: higher grades, higher throughput, and the meaningful contribution from the newly developed Kena Vein at the Guadalupe Mine. Next, we shifted over to all the ongoing exploration work across Zacualpan district, where their 2 rigs have been continually turning at various targets. Fred reviewed the high-grade exploration targets intercepted at their newer Kena Discovery at the Guadalupe Mine, and how this higher grade was going to increase their overall grade profile, as seen in Q1 numbers. Additionally, there has been drilling over the last year at the San Ramon Deeps and San Ramon South area at the San Ramon Mine, both a gold-rich and a silver-rich vein respectively at the Alacran Mine, some silver targets like San Antonio at the Mina Grande Mine, and most recently some solid higher-grade precious metals results from the Carlos Pacheco exploration area. Shifting over to the Plomosas Mine: They reduced expenditures in Q1 by making the decision to temporarily suspend underground mining, while they conduct more exploration and modeling of the mineralization. After sufficient drilling and interpretation is completed, then the plan is to work towards a more efficient and sustainable mine plan of operations for the longer-term. He also mentioned that the Company is currently in advanced-stage discussions on toll-milling arrangements at their Plomosa plant with a few nearby third-party operators; which they believe could generate cash flow during the current suspension of mining at Plomosas.

Patrick Moorhead and Daniel Newman return from Dell Technologies World to unpack Google I/O's Gemini-as-operating-system moment, the Blackstone-Google TPU joint venture nobody saw coming, NVIDIA's $81.6 billion quarter with a $91 billion guide, and debate whether or not the "SaaSpocalypse" is finally over. The handpicked topics for this week are: Google I/O 2026: Gemini Becomes the Operating System. Google I/O repositioned Gemini from a product to the operating layer for everything Google does, and the numbers backed it up. 900 million monthly active users, 3.2 quadrillion tokens per month, a 7x jump year over year. Pat's headline: this is about widening distribution, not just model quality. Gemini 3.5 Flash, Antigravity 2.0, Gemini Spark, and Android XR glasses all extend Gemini into surfaces that no competitor can replicate. Daniel's read: the token-cost reckoning is coming, and when enterprise subsidies end, models that can deliver value at a lower cost per token will become the ground zero of the next era. (The Decode) Dell Technologies World 2026: AI Factory Goes Agentic, 1,000 New AI Server Clients. Pat and Dan were both on the ground in Las Vegas and called it the most consequential Dell event in years. Michael Dell and Jensen Huang co-keynoted to launch the next-generation Dell AI Factory with liquid-cooled PowerEdge XE9780 servers, Dell Deskside Agentic AI, and a multi-model ecosystem including Google Distributed Cloud with Gemini 3.0, on-prem OpenAI Codex, and Grok. 1,000 new AI server clients in a single quarter is the cleanest leading indicator of enterprise demand heading into Dell's Q1 print. Pat's biggest takeaway: OpenShell as a control plane for agents spanning from the GB10 all the way to the PowerEdge rack has been the missing orchestration piece. Daniel's read: large enterprises are going to build hybrid AI architectures and want to deliver tokens at the lowest possible on-prem cost, and Dell is ready. (The Decode) Blackstone and Google Launch a $5B TPU Joint Venture. Pat called it the biggest story of the week and the one that went most under the radar. For the first time, a hyperscaler has released its proprietary AI silicon to a third-party distribution entity. The $5 billion deal, up to $25 billion with leverage, targets 500 megawatts of capacity online by 2027. Daniel's framing: Google decided its custom silicon is worth more as a commercially distributed asset than as a captive moat. Pat's note: the proprietary nature of TPU infrastructure means retrofitting existing data centers will require real work, but the sovereign angle gives the JV a natural first market. (The Decode) AMD Helios, $10B Taiwan Investment, and the MI450 Anchor Customer Rumor. AMD dropped a $10 billion Taiwan ecosystem investment alongside confirmation that Helios rack-scale is on track for multi-gigawatt customer deployments beginning 2H 2026. A Citi rumor surfaced Anthropic as the anchor MI450 customer, to be formally announced at AMD's Advancing AI Day in July. Pat's read: Lisa Su has made a commitment and she almost never falls through. The analysts who said AMD would not ship anything in the second half of 2026 are going to be very wrong. (The Decode) OpenAI Guaranteed Capacity: Sam Altman's Moment. OpenAI launched multi-year compute commitment contracts the same week that Anthropic was struggling with capacity outages. Pat called it brilliant and said it makes Sam Altman look like a genius. It's the inference-era analog of cloud reserved instances: guaranteed availability at a locked price for one, two, or three years. Daniel added context: Anthropic's annualized ARR growth is nearly double OpenAI's and is about to lap them, so the model war is far from over. But for enterprises that need reliability, OpenAI just made the most compelling enterprise trust argument of the week. (The Decode) Sovereign AI Crosses $30 Billion at NVIDIA, 14% of Revenue. NVIDIA disclosed sovereign AI as a segment-level line for the first time, at $30 billion in FY26, 3x the prior year. Pat has been tracking sovereign for years and calls this the clearest possible signal that it has moved from marketing term to structural revenue category. Daniel's point: outside of the four or five hyperscalers doing all the major buying, sovereign is where the incremental demand is coming from and it is very real. (The Decode) The Flip: Is the SaaSpocalypse Over? Daniel took the affirmative and came in loaded. Every earnings report across CrowdStrike, Cloudflare, ServiceNow, Intuit, Salesforce, Atlassian, Notion, and monday.com shows companies growing with the AI tailwind. His core argument: there was a reason SaaS emerged 20 to 30 years ago. Companies do not want to be in the software business. Vibe-coded flat-file apps with no security, no governance, no data lineage look great in a kitchen demo and fall apart at enterprise scale. The SaaSpocalypse is over and he is tired of talking about it. Pat's counter: BofA slapped Salesforce with an Underperform at $160, 8% below where it trades. Snowflake is down 35% year-to-date. A senior Dell executive told him Dell will not buy another SaaS system and is tripling internal software creation. The growth question is real even if the terminal value is not zero. Both agree the tape will tell the real story. (The Flip) NVIDIA Q1 FY27 Results. Record $81.6 billion revenue, up 85% year over year. Data center at $75.2 billion, up 92%. Non-GAAP EPS of $1.87, up 140%. Q2 guide of $91 billion crushed the $86.8 billion consensus by $4 billion at the midpoint. $80 billion buyback authorized, dividend raised 25x. The stock went down after hours for the fifth consecutive time following a massive beat and raise. Pat's read: NVIDIA may be worth $8 to $9 trillion on paper at a sector-average multiple and 75% gross margins held. Daniel's framing: this is the best company in the world, possibly tied with Google, and it is becoming the Apple of this era. He sees a long safe journey of continued growth vs. speculative dollars chasing quantum and space names that can double in a week. (Bulls and Bears) Intuit: Earnings Beat, Revenue Miss. A 17% workforce cut, raised guidance, and $8 billion buyback were authorized. Pat's emerging thesis: these companies are cutting people to afford tokens. Intuit comes at a moment when OpenAI's ChatGPT finance plugin via Stripe is building an intelligence layer that could sit on top of Intuit's products without displacing them directly, at least not yet. (Bulls and Bears) Lenovo: Record $21.6 billion quarterly revenue, up 27% year over year. The company's fastest growth in five years. AI-related revenue is up 84% year over year to 38% of total company revenue. ISG returned to full-year operating profit with a $21 billion AI server pipeline. Pat and Dan both read Lenovo's results as NVIDIA tea leaves, a leading indicator of enterprise AI server demand that directly validates what Dell said on stage about 1,000 new AI server clients. (Bulls and Bears) Analog Devices: Record $3.62 billion revenue, up 37% year over year. EPS up 67%. Q3 guide of $3.9 billion crushed consensus by $270 million. Data center up 90%, industrial up 56%, comms up 79%. The $1.5 billion Empower Semiconductor acquisition adds integrated voltage regulator technology that can reduce AI data center power consumption by 10 to 15% while shrinking the power footprint by up to 4x. Daniel's closing point: you can't build AI servers without players like Analog Devices and Lattice Semiconductor. These essential node companies aren't boring, they're foundational.

In this week's news roundup, the team unpacks Zillow's antitrust lawsuit against Compass and MRED, plus Q3 financial results from REA Group, Realtor.com and Rightmove.Chapters:00:00 Intro01:17 Zillow Sues Compass & MRED22:13 REA Group Q3 2026 Results30:28 Realtor.com Q1 Renaissance41:04 Rightmove Market UpdateZillow Sues Compass & MREDZillow has filed an antitrust lawsuit against Compass and Midwest Real Estate Data (MRED), alleging the two conspired to threaten Zillow's access to listings in Chicagoland if it enforced its listing standards. Harvey, Simon and Ed dig into the philosophical seller-choice vs buyer-information divide, Zillow's spiralling legal costs ($20m incremental in Q2 alone), and why this is the latest sign that agents and brokerages worldwide are starting to push back against portal power.REA Group Q3 2026 ResultsREA Group posted $398m AUD revenue (+6% YoY) and $220m EBITDA (+11% YoY) at a 55.3% margin. But REA India had a disappointing quarter and is starting to look like a soft exit. The team discusses whether owning multiple portals across multiple countries is anything more than a PowerPoint dream, and what Australia's new tax regime around negative gearing means for transaction volumes.Realtor.com - Renaissance Or PE Sale?News Corp CEO Robert Thompson hailed a "renaissance" at Realtor.com - revenues up 10% to $148m USD, 261m monthly visits, 31% portal visit share. Ed wonders whether the unusually effusive CEO commentary is a signal News Corp is teeing the asset up for a private-equity sale.Rightmove Market UpdateRightmove held 8-10% revenue growth guidance and pointed to 2,500 technology releases, 43 live AI initiatives, and LLM referral traffic still under 0.5% (flat since end of 2025). Simon and Harvey debate whether the AI doom narrative is overcooked, or whether traffic is leaking to smaller agents instead of the portals.Presented by:Edmund Keith - https://www.linkedin.com/in/edmund-keith/Harvey Hancock - https://www.linkedin.com/in/harvey-hancock/Simon Baker - https://www.linkedin.com/in/stbaker/

Amadeus Fire AG Q1 2026: Key TakeawaysPresented by Jörg Peters, Head of Investor RelationsIn this latest financial results presentation on seat11a, Jörg Peters, Head of Investor Relations of Amadeus Fire Group, presents the company's Q1 2026 financial results and provides an update on current business trends across the Personnel Services and Training segments.Challenging Macro Environment Continues to Impact Personnel ServicesAmadeus Fire started the year in a still difficult macroeconomic environment in Germany, with weak economic growth, high unemployment, and cautious hiring activity continuing to weigh on the Personnel Services business. Companies remained reluctant to make long-term staffing decisions, recruitment cycles became longer, and candidate willingness to change jobs stayed subdued during the quarter. Against this backdrop, group revenue declined by 9.0% to €89.4 million, while operating EBITA fell to €3.0 million and the operating EBITA margin declined to 3.4%. Nevertheless, management highlighted that business performance stabilised compared with Q4 2025 and developed broadly in line with expectations.Personnel Services Segment Remains Under PressureThe Personnel Services segment remained under pressure, with revenue declining by 17.6% and operating gross profit falling by 18.9% year-on-year. At the same time, the cost and efficiency measures introduced in 2025 continued to show positive effects, helping to stabilise operational performance over the course of the quarter. Management emphasized that strict cost control, productivity management, and cautious internal hiring are expected to support profitability improvements as the year progresses. While the short-term environment remains challenging, the company continues to position itself for improved operating leverage once demand conditions normalise.Training Segment Shows Greater ResilienceIn contrast, the Training segment delivered a more resilient performance. Revenue increased by 3.4% to €41.8 million, supported by the first-time consolidation of acquisitions such as Masterplan and eduBITES. The B2C business developed stable to slightly positive, while the publicly funded B2G market showed improving momentum compared with the previous quarter. This underlines the increasing strategic importance of the Training segment within the broader Amadeus Fire business model.AI-First Strategy Continues to AdvanceStrategically, Amadeus Fire continued to advance its AI-first orientation, with a focus on expanding AI-related training offerings and corporate AI learning solutions to address growing demand for digital skills development. The integration of Masterplan and eduBITES supports the company's ambition to strengthen its position in digital learning, AI-enabled education, and scalable SaaS-driven training solutions. Management continues to view these activities as important long-term growth and margin drivers.FY 2026 Outlook Confirmed Overall, management sees Q1 2026 as the basis for a gradual return to higher profitability over the course of the year and confirmed the outlook for FY 2026. The combination of operational stabilisation, ongoing cost discipline, and improving trends in Training is expected to support a significant increase in earnings as market conditions gradually normalise. ▶️ Other videos:Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/T&CThis publication is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.

The first quarter reflects continued normalization in some areas, while other segments remain impacted by cautious customer behavior, lower order visibility, and ongoing pricing pressure. As a result, performance in Q1 is shaped by a combination of volume developments, pricing dynamics, and cost factors across the portfolio.Segment Developments: Differentiated Trends Across the PortfolioAcross the business divisions, developments remain differentiated. The chemical segments, including silicones and polymers, continue to reflect broader industrial demand trends, with volumes stabilizing in parts but still influenced by weaker activity in construction and other cyclical end markets. Pricing remains an important factor, as competitive dynamics and market conditions continue to impact margins.Chemical Segments: Silicones and Polymers Under Cyclical PressureThe polysilicon segment remains a key contributor to overall performance, with developments closely linked to the global solar market. In Q1, pricing trends, customer demand, and supply dynamics in the photovoltaic value chain continue to influence the segment's performance. At the same time, WACKER's diversified business model provides exposure to a wide range of industrial and technology-driven applications.Polysilicon: Exposure to Solar Market DynamicsOverall, the first quarter illustrates a market environment that remains in transition, with early signs of stabilization in some areas, while other parts of the portfolio continue to operate below previous levels. The presentation provides a detailed view on how WACKER is performing at the start of the year and how current market conditions are reflected in its Q1 results.Conclusion: Early Signs of Stabilization in a Transitional Market ▶️ Other videos:Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/T&CThis publication is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.

ZEAL Network SE Q1 2026: Key TakeawaysPresented by Andrea Behrendt, CFOIn this latest financial results presentation on seat11a, Andrea Behrendt of ZEAL Network SE presents the company's Q1 2026 financial results and provides an update on customer growth, lottery billings, games performance, and ZEAL's strategic expansion initiatives.Continued Growth Despite Weak Jackpot EnvironmentZEAL delivered continued growth in the first quarter despite what management described as a particularly weak jackpot environment. Neither Lotto 6aus49 nor Eurojackpot reached peak jackpot levels during Q1 2026, creating difficult conditions for customer acquisition and reactivation. Nevertheless, the company managed to increase revenue, expand its customer base, and further improve its gross margin, highlighting the resilience of ZEAL's platform and marketing execution.Revenue Growth and Targeted InvestmentsRevenue increased by 6.2% to €54.3 million, supported by higher lottery billings, stronger gross margins, and growth in monthly active users. At the same time, EBITDA declined to €15.5 million, reflecting deliberate investments into marketing, personnel expansion, games, and broader diversification initiatives. Management emphasized that these higher expenses are targeted growth investments intended to strengthen ZEAL's long-term positioning and support future scalability.Customer Growth and Lottery Platform ExpansionCustomer acquisition remained strong despite the weak jackpot backdrop. Monthly active users in the lottery business increased by 5% to nearly 1.6 million, while ZEAL added 274 thousand new registered customers during the quarter. These developments underline the continued relevance of ZEAL's digital lottery platform and the company's ability to attract and retain users even in less supportive external conditions.Games Segment Continues to ScaleThe company also continued to expand its Games segment, where revenue grew by 14% and the games portfolio increased to more than 740 games. This reflects ZEAL's broader strategy of diversifying beyond its traditional lottery business and building a broader digital entertainment ecosystem with stronger recurring customer engagement and monetisation opportunities.Strategic Expansion Through Social Lottery ProductsA strategic highlight of the quarter was the launch of the new charity lottery “Traumautoverlosung,” which expands ZEAL's social lottery offering beyond “Traumhausverlosung.” Management sees this as another important step in broadening the company's product portfolio and strengthening the foundations for long-term growth.FY 2026 Outlook ConfirmedLooking ahead, ZEAL confirmed its FY 2026 guidance, expecting revenue of €250–260 million and EBITDA of €70–75 million, while continuing to target double-digit annual revenue growth and EBITDA margins above 30% over the medium term.ConclusionOverall, ZEAL Network SE's Q1 2026 financial results highlight a business that continues to execute well despite an unusually weak jackpot environment. The combination of customer growth, improving monetisation, expanding games activities, and ongoing diversification initiatives reinforces ZEAL's positioning as one of Germany's leading digital lottery and online gaming platforms with a scalable and increasingly diversified business model. ▶️ Other videos:Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/T&CThis publication is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.

Patrick Moorhead and Daniel Newman break down a massive week in enterprise tech, from Google Cloud Next's full-stack AI push and Amazon's $100 billion Anthropic commitment, to Apple's leadership transition and Intel's long-awaited foundry validation courtesy of Elon Musk. The handpicked topics for this week are: Google Cloud Next 2026: Full-Stack AI and New TPUs — Google Cloud Next has cemented itself as the second-biggest AI event on the calendar, with Thomas Kurian declaring the proof-of-concept era over and enterprises now in full production mode with agents. Google unveiled two next-generation TPUs (the 8i for training and the 8t for high-throughput inference) and reinforced its full-stack differentiation from infrastructure through Gemini Enterprise Workspace. (The Decode) Google's Agentic Security and MCP Push — Google made a significant move into agentic security, combining Wiz and Mandiant into what Pat calls a sleeper announcement of the show. Google also committed to placing MCP servers across all of its data surfaces, meaning even non-Google platforms can tap into Google data without full lock-in. (The Decode) Google Distributed Cloud and On-Prem Agentic Orchestration — Google took the biggest first step Patrick has seen toward a true agentic orchestrator that spans on-prem enterprise and public cloud through progress on Google Distributed Cloud. No other company has yet attempted cross-environment agent coordination at this level. (The Decode) Amazon's $100 Billion Anthropic Commitment — Amazon formalized a commitment of up to $100 billion into Anthropic, including five gigawatts of Trainium capacity, making it the largest non-NVIDIA silicon commitment in history. Anthropic's valuation crossed $1 trillion just weeks after a $350 billion raise, a pace that has left even veteran analysts searching for new language. (The Decode) Adobe Summit 2026: Enterprise Agents and Jensen's Endorsement — Jensen Huang took the stage at Adobe Summit to deepen the NVIDIA-Adobe partnership, calling agentic workflows the new front end for SaaS rather than a replacement for it. Adobe reported $250 million in Firefly ARR and 45% quarter-over-quarter growth in agentic tool usage, yet the stock continued to disappoint investors expecting hypergrowth multiples. (The Decode) Apple's New CEO: John Ternus and Tim Cook's Legacy — Apple named John Ternus as its fourth CEO, closing the book on Tim Cook's 15-year tenure marked by custom silicon success, services expansion, and operational excellence, alongside misses in Vision Pro, the abandoned car project, and Siri's failure to become the AI front end it should have been. Ternus is a continuity hardware candidate, and the most consequential decision may prove to be keeping Johny Srouji over all of hardware. (The Decode) Intel Foundry: Elon Musk, TerraFab, and 14A Validation — One day before Intel's earnings print, Elon Musk publicly confirmed TeraFab will use Intel's 14A process, delivering the first verifiable public wafer commitment on that node. Intel then reported a 23% stock surge, 22% data center growth, and EPS of $0.29 against a $0.01 street consensus. (The Decode) The Flip: TSMC vs. Semiconductor Equipment Makers — Pat and Dan take hard opposing stances on who holds more power in the AI supply chain: TSMC with its control of over 90% of advanced AI silicon and irreplaceable process expertise, or the equipment oligopoly of ASML, Applied Materials, LAM, and KLA without whom no leading-edge fab can operate. The real answer, they conclude, is deep interdependence, though TSMC's combination of talent and leading-edge control gives it outsized leverage today. (The Flip) Intel — Intel's earnings were a blowout across the board, with data center up 22%, EPS of $0.29 versus a $0.01 estimate, and guide raised, driven by CPU price increases, customer pull-ins, and packaging volume growth. Hosts discuss whether the stock at current levels is pricing in foundry revenue that has barely begun to materialize on the tape. (Bulls and Bears) GE Vernova and Vertiv — GE Vernova posted a beat on revenue and EPS with orders up 71% organically and a $163 billion backlog, while Vertiv reported sales up 30% and raised forward guidance to $14 billion. Both companies reflect the acute power infrastructure demand tied to data center buildout, with Patrick noting their growth was likely already baked into share prices heading into the print. (Bulls and Bears) ServiceNow — ServiceNow beat across the board with a Rule of 57 growth result and AI run rate up to $1.5 billion, 50% above its prior target, though margin headwinds from three acquisitions and on-prem impacts from the Middle East conflict weighed on sentiment. Daniel argues the market has not yet accepted that workflow automation at enterprise scale will not be replaced by vibe-coded alternatives. (Bulls and Bears) IBM — IBM posted a triple beat with Red Hat up 13%, software up 11%, and Z mainframe up 48%, the latter driven in part by AI-assisted COBOL modernization tools making the platform newly relevant. The stock slid after hours despite the results, continuing a pattern Patrick describes simply as silly season for enterprise infrastructure names. (Bulls and Bears) SAP — SAP beat on revenue and earnings with cloud revenue up 19%, cloud backlog up 20%, and total backlog up 25%, reinforcing that enterprise ERP customers are not moving away from core platforms. Daniel and Patrick agree this is another data point showing enterprises are building AI on top of existing software stacks, not tearing them out.
