Current thesis
The bull case is mostly deal-defined: the $8.50 cash consideration provides a visible value anchor above the $8.24 evidence-packet anchor price and the latest available $8.26 quote. Q1 also showed better reported revenue, EBITDA, ALFCF, lower interest payments, and a 2.9x consolidated net leverage ratio, which supports residual standalone value if closing takes longer.
