Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

Near-term catalysts include Q2 results (July 28) and the expected start of loan contributions from the Aspire JV in Q3, along with ongoing Aspire growth and AI-enabled pricing tools that could lift margins and volumes. While BV headwinds exist (1–3% expected BV decline), the sustained liquidity and expanding funding network support a positive price path.
