Fantastic $NRP update from John. Particularly appreciate his capital allocation framework and view on why paying out 100% of cash flow makes the most sense. https://t.co/6LngKKV9hC

@ShmuelLon Good. That was my intention. It was less about the merits of $EVC in the future and more about recognizing that 1) we have to think about growth properly; and 2)we have to guard against thesis drift.

Is $EVC is a classic case of thesis drift for its investors? It was all about sequential hypergrowth (with a supposed SOTP margin of safety). Mgmt said Q3 will be below Q2. Now the thesis is about strong year over year growth. What happens in a few quarters when year over year growth is gone, or is low single digits? Is this really a seasonal business? For me it was a small position due to the nature of the situation. Q2 growth was lighter than I expected so I was selling after hours and have fully exited.

New $FTEK CEO is interesting to me, ex $CECO which has been a great company. What do you think? There has been a lot of kinda inexplicable decisions for years from mgmt (particularly massive SG&A costs) offsetting what should be strong gross margins. My read is he probably joined to pull some easy levers.
