Beating the consensus analyst estimates both for its trailing quarter and forward guidance, Digi International (DGII +7.12%) stock was a racehorse on Thursday. Its shares rose by a robust 7% the day after the company published its fiscal fourth-quarter 2025 figures. That rise looked particularly strong when compared to the 1.7% slide of the S&P 500 (^GSPC 1.66%) across the trading session.

As for the bottom line, Digi International's net income not according to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) grew by 10% to $21 million, or $0.56 per share.
On average, analysts tracking the stock were expecting lower revenue of below $110 million, and a slightly more modest non-GAAP (adjusted) net income figure of $0.51.
CEO Ron Konezny was quoted as saying that the successful quarter came from the company "delivering reliable and secure value-added IoT solutions in the midst of material market challenges and rapid geopolitical changes."
