Star Equity Reports Q3 2026 Revenue Growth Driven by Merger Synergies
Star Equity (STRR) reported third-quarter revenue of $53.9 million, a 12.4% increase year-over-year. This growth was primarily driven by the full-quarter integration of the Building Solutions and Energy Services divisions following its merger with Hudson Talent Solutions. The company successfully realized $3.1 million in annualized merger synergies, surpassing initial management expectations of $2 million. Despite overall revenue gains, the Business Services segment saw a 9% decline due to professional talent market pressures. However, the Energy Services division showed strength with a 17% pro forma increase in gross profit, fueled by mining and geothermal applications. The company also improved its cash position, generating $0.9 million in operating cash flow compared to a use of funds in the prior year period.
