Current thesis
The bull case is that Jefferies is translating stronger advisory, equity-underwriting, and equities activity into higher earnings quality while still returning capital via a $0.40 dividend and renewed $250 million buyback authorization. Management also said direct exposure to First Brands is now zero, and the planned Tessellis sale should make future results more core-franchise heavy.
