Current thesis
Primary evidence improved after Q1: all three operating groups grew, Color was the standout, Portfolio Optimization Plan drag rolled off versus the prior-year quarter, leverage improved to 2.4x net debt to credit-adjusted EBITDA, and management raised FY2026 EPS guidance. That supports a constructive but still monitoring-style stance rather than an aggressive rerating call.
Posture

Lead driver
Momentum
What changed
Momentum remains the lead driver in the composite, 7D delta -5.1.
What can break
After the post-earnings move, the raised 2026 outlook likely needs further confirmation at the July 24, 2026 earnings checkpoint to sustain upside.
