The significant improvement in profitability, strong cash flow generation, and raised guidance suggest the company's strategic pivot is working. Traders should monitor the execution of the 2026 guidance, particularly the resumption of accretive acquisitions and the ability to maintain margin expansion. The improved leverage ratio also provides more financial flexibility.
