Preliminary Valuation & Analysis

EBITDA compared with EV/EBITDA• CSU is currently trading at a multiple only slightly above its peers, however it should command a slightly higher multiple

given the EBITDA margin it generates. This would be the same when using EBITDAR; the company also trades at a

premium to its peer group. Nonetheless, the EBITDA margin relative to its EV multiple is quite narrow suggesting that

the company may have additional upside.

CSU Assessment!

CSU Historical Shareholder composition

• It is always good to have some Momentum money in the stock. This creates volatility, which propagates trading

activity and opportunities to attract new investors to the stock.

CSU Turnover• Low turnover likely due to low liquidity of share price, which stagnates share price performance. Introducing new

investors to the story will create an opportunity for legacy shareholders to exit the position.
