Current thesis
FY2025 showed real operating momentum: Q4 sales rose 12.2%, full-year sales rose 22.4%, adjusted EBITDA margin expanded to 11.2%, and management guided to another year of growth with 11%-12% adjusted EBITDA; at roughly 9-11x trailing EPS, even modest execution on Nissens synergies and deleveraging could lift the stock toward the sparse target backdrop.
