Current thesis
The bull case is that strategic revenue now exceeds legacy revenue, NaaS adoption is growing, the Alkira deal extends the programmable-network platform, and the debt repricing plus prior asset-sale proceeds improve balance-sheet flexibility.
Posture
Defensive

Value
What changed
Value remains the lead driver in the composite, 7D delta +1.1.
What can break
