18 months ago, the bear case on $Meridian Hldg(MRDN)$ was straightforward:
Too much merger debt.
That argument is looking very different today. 👀
📉 The balance sheet has changed dramatically:
• Key debt down 46% YoY to $34.6M
• Net debt down 65% to just $9.4M
• Net leverage down to only 0.39x
• $17.3M of cash on the balance sheet
That's a very different setup from a small-cap company weighed down by debt.
💰 And the bigger point is what the deleveraging enables.
A highly leveraged company has limited room to invest. Cash gets consumed by interest and debt repayment, leaving less flexibility to pursue growth.
$MRDN is moving in the opposite direction.
The company has been reducing debt while continuing to grow revenue and generate profit.
That gives it more financial flexibility to fund expansion across:
🇧🇷 Brazil
🇲🇽 Mexico
🇺🇸 United States
without necessarily needing to raise additional capital.
