@oscarazocar50 $KWY KSX EBITDA of $4.3 million and warranty modified cash EBITDA of $2.9 million. The modified cash number for warranty is really the proper metric. Those numbers were in press release.

$ETD announces a $3.00/share special dividend to quell shareholders while Doug Bergeron's activist efforts escalate. As a reminder, $ETD made the strategic decision to pay almost all of its free cash flow out in dividends (regular + special) over the past few years. The company has no debt and still generates strong FCF despite overall weakness in the housing market and what I would call lackluster execution on its growth plans. Seems like there's still a lot of ways to win here as a shareholder.

$IESC is buying DBM Global from $VATE for $650 Million. Not sure if I am missing something, but DBM's backlog is up 50% year over year, revenue up 25%, and they agreed to sell it for 11x earnings. What?

$XGN bio pharma revenue increased 40% yy in Q2 hitting a quarterly record. What we also love is that the stock trades for 2.5x sales vs a comp set at 10.3x. This is in advance of launching testing for Myositis which is another connective-tissue disorder that requires early diagnosis to treat and prevent serious organ damage. Rheumatologists have requested a calibrated Myositis test w/ 15x more frequency than any other test because the condition is so critical to rule out. Only $XGN will offer this and its coming in the 1H of 2027, maybe Q1 and the additional cost of launch are already baked into the cake.
