Watch for the S-4 registration statement filing and stockholder vote timeline. The 2.2x pro forma leverage at closing is manageable but elevated for DTI's comfort zone — monitor Q3 2026 earnings call for potential guidance revision and any updates on debt financing terms. The Loggie family's 30% retained stake creates strong alignment and reduces risk of seller overhang.
Price Chart
Executive Summary
