Current thesis
The post-earnings bull read is that Q1 validated a real earnings-power rebound: MarketBeat reported DAR beat consensus EPS by $0.27, while company sources showed much stronger EBITDA, better DGD economics, and explicit Q2 core EBITDA guidance. If Q2 DGD is indeed stronger than Q1, estimates likely have room to move higher.
