Monday, May 6, 11:09 AM Federal Signal (FSS -2.1%) moves up despite posting a mixed Q1 report this morning, coming up shy on the top line but beating on a per share basis. Net sales were up 2% Y/Y, but orders were down 14% versus last year, primarily due to weaker international demand and Q112 results being skewed by a large order from an international customer. Operating income rose 17%, the result of improved gross margins within its Environmental Solutions Group, and an absence of restructuring costs. For H113, reaffirms EPS guidance of $0.20 - $0.25.
