Monitor the final IPO pricing and share count when disclosed. The debt repayment plan significantly reduces leverage, which could improve credit metrics. The controlled company structure and lock-up agreements (180 days) will limit near-term float. Watch for any updates on the offering range and underwriter exercise of over-allotment.
