Current thesis
The constructive read is that Q2 showed a modest operating EPS beat versus secondary-source consensus, management said trends improved into Q3, and the new interim CEO is explicitly pushing same-store sales, margins, and debt reduction. Post-print reaction from coverage was not uniformly negative: StockAnalysis surfaced a Stifel Hold note with a target increase to $15 from $10.

What changed

What can break
Balance-sheet risk is still material because the company is managing note prepayments and refinancing against restrictive securitized debt terms flagged in the 10-K [#10-K-2025-11-19].
