<li>MitCorp - the largest shareholder - and the Nagatani family - today announced an MBO where they will buy a classic ubiquitous brand at an Adjusted EV of 5.4x EBITDA.</li>
<li>The equity check appears to buy at ~2.5x Mar27-29 average FCF but they probably have 50% of the shares in the bag. Retail, or who they sell to, matter.</li>
