Shentel cuts 10% of its staff. Half the savings leave the construction budget.
The fibre build is nearing its finish line, so Shentel is shrinking the team that built it. Its promised $12.3 million annual saving has two addresses: operating expenses and capitalised construction labour. The distinction matters while grant payments slip and the company raises…

Radware has a seven-year cloud deal. Its price is still a secret
Radware's cloud run rate grew while quarterly profit shrank. A new seven-year security deal gives the growth story a customer, but no public price. The sales clock, the earnings clock and the customer's installation clock deserve separate columns.

Amphenol's communications sales jumped 99%. Almost half the lift was bought.

Ofcom Put the Old Man-Overboard Beacon on a Five-Year Clock
A fall overboard can leave a person with one last link to the ship: a radio beacon. Britain’s regulator has now put the older AIS version on a deadline. New authorisations stop in January 2027; existing devices get until the end of 2031.

Generac has $4.5bn in data-centre orders. Its factory division earns 12.5%.
A customer queue can fill a factory calendar before it fills a profit line. Generac's new data-centre order figure is large enough to make production the story. The latest divisional accounts show the earnings test now under way, but leave the profitability of the data-centre…

GE Vernova pays $9 billion for Trench. The multiple lives in 2028.
GE Vernova wants the grid parts that its own expansion will need. The price is immediate on closing; the earnings yardstick is two years away. Trench's factories, order book and Charlotte ramp make that gap a test of production, not a slogan about electricity demand.

Vertiv sold $4.3 billion. Inventory swallowed $767 million of cash.
The data-centre equipment rush has a warehouse bill. Vertiv's third-quarter sales rose 61%, yet its cash-flow statement shows a $766.9 million inventory use. Suppliers, customers and the company all appear elsewhere in the working-capital bridge. The useful question is how long…

Snowflake's permanent tables leave seven days on the meter
Deleting a permanent table starts a storage afterlife. Time Travel, a fixed Fail-safe period and surviving clone references decide how long the bytes remain chargeable—and who can still recover them.

Extreme's SaaS ARR rose 22%. Hardware carried 79% of revenue growth.
Extreme Networks put its cloud platform in the shop window. The till tells a more physical story. Product sales supplied $24.2 million of the $30.8 million year-on-year increase in fiscal first-quarter revenue. The software business has momentum; the switches did most of this…

FCC’s 42 GHz draft: satellites get the downlink; mobile goes secondary
The FCC’s circulated proposal would give satellite gateway downlinks primary status across 500 MHz at 42 GHz, keep terrestrial fixed links primary too, and move mobile services to secondary. The coordination machinery that would make the sharing work is still for a later…

PPL's $11m aid bill starts at 69,000 volts
From January, PPL Electric Utilities will assign $11 million a year of household-assistance costs to its LP-6 large-load class. Voltage, demand and a classification petition determine which projects enter that paying group.

Parsons put $495 million on the contract. It booked $37 million.
A contract ceiling looks splendid on a slide. Parsons' third-quarter list places a $495 million national-security award beside $37 million actually booked during the quarter. The distance between those figures is where the customer still holds the pen.
