    Question

    Argan Reports Q2 Earnings Up 50.4% as Power Gross Margin Expands to 22.4%

    Direct answer

    Argan delivered strong Q2 fiscal 2027 performance driven by thermal power plant construction activity, generating 52.9% segment revenue growth and 22.4% gross margins. While industrial construction revenue doubled, margin compression to 7.3% in industrial reflects mixed project mix and execution costs across non-power operations. — bullish pressure on AGX.
