Had to re-listen to $STLN (frmr $TOI) call this am. Outstanding results, execution, and overall outlook. Numbers going way higher. The multiple should too. Dan and Rob turned this from a distressed equity to a best in class growth story with ripping revenues, positive FCF and ebitda, a debt refi, rebrand, and multiple market launches on the come. Just incredible execution. Well done! FWIW - and this is not advice, but we think $STLN headed to mid teens in the next 6-12 months....150-250% upside based on our math, which is just an opinion.

Doug Bergeron of Verifone fame going activist on $ETD. As we pointed out here in the past, there's a ton of value in this business and there's no doubt that the brand has enormous potential. "Ethan Allen" still has tremendous brand equity.
