Still, they’re making progress: net debt down over 20% year-over-year. The distribution shift is set to finish by Q2 end, and the strategic review—including potential sale—is ongoing. Despite the turbulence, Roots remains disciplined, focused on execution while building momentum. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
