TDG — AVOID The author notes TDG beat on revenue and EPS yet the stock fell 6%, attributing the drop to a press release showing net income down 9.7% year-over-year. The decline is primarily driven by higher interest expense from an increased year-over-year gross debt balance. The author argues that while TDG has managed its debt adeptly, higher interest rates will weigh on earnings going forward, making the stock unattractive near-term.

TDG has a lot of debt. They have been very adept at managing it but higher interest rates will weigh on earnings going forward.
