Current thesis
The earnings release supports a cautious bull case: EBITDA margin expanded to 31.8%, leverage improved to 4.0x, guidance was confirmed, and cemetery pricing/preneed production remained solid. That combination suggests the earnings reset was more about mix and last year's divestiture gain comp than a broken operating model.
