Market sentiment
Sentiment has improved materially on the earnings/revenue beat, raised EBITDA guidance, and the buyback authorization; remaining concerns center on lumpiness from WQIP and some insider selling.
Why this signal
Raised full-year EBITDA guidance, strong operating cash flow, and the buyback improve the risk/reward and provide downside support, though part of Q1 strength reflects more volatile incentive payments.
Consider adding in tranches (e.g., 1/3 now, 2/3 after Q2 confirmation), monitoring margins excluding WQIP and occupancy trends.
