LAS VEGAS, Nov. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — What happens when two powerhouse leaders join forces to reshape an industry? The answer lies in the groundbreaking collaboration between Jeremy Prevost, CEO of Tucker Hill Air, Plumbing, and Electric, and Michael Leobold, Co-Founder of GreenWave Pest Solutions.
Together, they have proved that achieving operational excellence and improving profitability can be more than just boardroom ambitions—it can be a reality. They have successfully built and sold one of the top pest control companies in the Southwest. For investors curious about up-and-coming business models, Tucker Hill’s crossover is a case study in balancing agility, strategy, and execution to conquer industry challenges. Here’s how they did it—and what it means for your investment strategy.
The Industry Challenges Redefined Transitioning into a new vertical comes with its own set of challenges, and pest control is no exception. Despite its potential for scaling revenue, the industry constantly grapples with three major hurdles. Tucker Hill’s strategic moves address these head-on, offering key insights for investors. 1. High Lead Costs Marketing and generating quality leads in pest control can be prohibitively expensive, burning through capital for uncertain returns.
Tucker Hill’s approach was intentional and data-driven. By leveraging the trusted GreenWave Pest Solutions brand and aligning marketing efforts with pre-established segments, they minimized entry costs. Their innovative focus on improving close rates meant every marketing dollar worked harder. Result: Gross margin increased by 20%. Tucker Hill proved that controlling lead costs isn’t just about securing volume—it’s about enhancing quality through targeted strategies. 2. Skilled Labor vs. Unskilled Labor The pest control business demands a delicate mix of trained professionals and efficient teams. The ability to attract skilled staff is a challenge that plagues the industry (pun intended). Tucker Hill and GreenWave relied on strong operational frameworks to streamline training and integration.
The collaboration prioritized equipping the workforce with both technical expertise and customer-first service habits, breaking away from the typical low-bar training regiment seen in the sector. Insight for Investors: Teams aligned with clear expectations and KPI-focused training programs provide both scalability and a service quality edge—critical components for long-term growth. 3. Benchmarks and KPIs Every smart investor asks the same question—how do you measure success?
For Tucker Hill, the key to success lies in transparent and actionable KPIs. Together with GreenWave Pest Solutions, they developed key operational benchmarks, tracking everything from average revenue per customer to team efficiency. Actual Impact: EBITDA saw a remarkable 10% lift, a clear indicator that their targeted metrics weren’t just aspirational—they were actionable. Collaboration Shapes Success This strategic partnership wasn’t a matter of chance; it was the result of two strong leaders aligning their visions. Jeremy Prevost, known for his expertise in managing diversified services, worked seamlessly with Michael Leobold, leveraging his deep pest control experience. Their mutual respect and focus on execution ensured that Tucker Hill’s new pest control division hit the ground running. Investors take note—partnerships like these serve as valuable blueprints for successfully scaling in multi-service industries.
When leadership prioritizes collaboration, supported by aligned goals and expertise, growth is inevitable. What Can Investors Learn? Tucker Hill’s story isn’t just about expansion; it’s about rewriting the playbook in a competitive market. Their ability to tackle high lead costs, foster a skilled workforce, and develop actionable KPIs resulted in measurable success that should have every investor paying attention. High Numbers Speak for Themselves: A 20% increase in gross margin and 10% growth in EBITDA within such a short timeline signal operational excellence.

FFR Issues 2026 Full-Year Guidance for the First Time
Based on its current business progress and momentum, FFR issued full-year 2026 guidance for the first time. The acquired robotics business expects sales and shipments of approximately 2,000 robots on a standalone full-year 2026 basis, while maintaining positive unit gross margins on robot deliveries. This standalone full-year guidance includes periods before the acquisition and does not represent FFR’s reported consolidated results for 2026; FFR will include the acquired business’s results in its consolidated financial statements only from the October 23, 2026 closing date.
The guidance reflects management’s confidence in the Company’s near-term performance and growth prospects, as well as its determination to accelerate efforts to maximize value for stockholders.
In its five-year business plan outlook, FFR projects 2027 revenue of approximately $45.2 million, including $32.5 million from the EAI Devices core and $12.7 million from the other three ecosystem cores, and EAI Device sales of approximately 7,400 units. Over the next five years, the outlook projects cumulative revenue of approximately $1.98 billion, including approximately $1.08 billion from the EAI Devices core and $900 million from the other three ecosystem cores, and cumulative EAI Device sales of approximately 133,000 units. These projections are subject to significant uncertainties and are not guarantees of future performance.
FFR also invited people with expertise in Physical AI, particularly AI brain technology, marketing and sales, and business development, to join the Company and work with its team to advance technology and create value across the industry.

FranklinWH to debut multi-phase hybrid battery system and new software technology at All Energy Australia 2026

October 26, 2026By
The company will show the hybrid system for the Australian and New Zealand market, plus two software tools for homeowners and installers, at Booth HH135 on 28 and 29 October.
MELBOURNE, Australia, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — FranklinWH, a global leader in whole-home energy management and battery storage, will unveil a multi-phase hybrid battery system for the Australian and New Zealand markets at All Energy Australia 2026. It will also preview two software tools, Energy Optimiser for FranklinWH App users and the Connect Portal for installers.
Taking place Wednesday 28 and Thursday 29 October 2026 at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC). At Booth HH135, FranklinWH will showcase its multi-phase hybrid home energy system and software tools.
Multi-phase hybrid system
The multi-phase hybrid system connects battery storage directly to the solar panels, which simplifies installation and reduces wiring.
Homeowners may select a streamlined setup with a built-in aPower controller for essential energy management, or add an external FranklinWH aGate controller for greater flexibility. The aGate supports additional solar, generators, vehicle-to-load (V2L) and Smart Circuits, which manage individual household loads.
“Our hybrid system connects the battery straight to the solar panels, so there is less wiring to run, and it pulls apart to fit through tight spaces. At All Energy we’re looking forward to showing installers the multi-phase design that will enable more Australian households to achieve energy freedom,” said Ke Bi, global CEO at FranklinWH.
Both setups support single, split and three-phase grids, so the hybrid system suits properties from urban homes to larger properties with heavy loads.
Software
Alongside the hardware, FranklinWH will preview two software tools. One aims to help households get more value from their batteries, and the other aims to reduce installation time for installers.
Energy Optimiser
Traditional home energy management systems rely on fixed time-of-use (TOU) schedules that charge and discharge batteries during preset windows and offset grid electricity only at peak hours. Static schedules fall short when a household’s usage and the weather depart from the tariff timetable. Energy Optimiser replaces fixed routines with predictive decisions.
By analysing real-time tariffs, solar forecasting, consumption habits and the battery’s state of charge, it adjusts when the battery charges and discharges, directing stored energy to any period of high value rather than a single peak window.
Connect Portal
Connect Portal is an online platform for FranklinWH’s installer partners. It automates qualification reviews to speed up approvals, lets installers manage team members, training and certifications in one place, and connects certified installers with qualified homeowner leads.
“A fixed schedule treats every day the same, and no two days are the same, so Energy Optimiser reads the tariff, the solar forecast and how a household actually uses power, then adjusts the battery to match. The Connect Portal handles qualification reviews, training and certifications, and it puts certified installers in touch with qualified homeowner leads,” said Ke Bi.
Visitors to Booth HH135 can see live demonstrations of the hybrid system and previews of both software tools.
About FranklinWH
FranklinWH designs and manufactures whole-home energy management and battery storage systems that integrate solar, battery, generator and grid power. Headquartered in Silicon Valley, California, with an Australian office in Macquarie Park, Sydney, FranklinWH develops hardware and software solutions that help homeowners manage energy use, increase energy independence and maintain backup power. The company continues to expand its product offerings and installer network across Australia and New Zealand.
