Current thesis

Primary-source earnings evidence improved the near-term setup: adjusted EPS beat visible consensus, guidance was maintained, leverage stayed manageable at 2.6x, and management has already redirected divestiture proceeds into buybacks and deleveraging [#8-K-2026-05-06] [#10-Q-2026-05-07].
