Park Lawn said Q2 revenue more than doubled to $40.3 million compared to last year at the same time, which beat estimates. Adjusted net earnings also more than doubled to $3.7 million or 18 cents per share, which was shy of expectations. Park Lawn took a narrower net loss of $435,849 or 2 cents per share compared to $812,444 or 7 cents a year ago.
