Current thesis
The primary bull argument after the Q1 print is that management still guides to roughly $15.0 billion of 2026 sales, about 4% ongoing EBIT margin, over $300 million of free cash flow, over $900 million of debt reduction, and an ABL refinancing expected in Q2 2026. If pricing sticks and North America margins recover from the 0.3% Q1 trough, the stock could rebound from distressed levels.
