thanks for your post on FOUR.

Do you have any summations of current M&As of FOUR and the capital allocation ability of the company? I'm tracking those nowadays but want to hear from you.

Hi, thanks!

I do not. I believe they are progressing well, but have not dug into the weeds into them individually. Please share to me if you’d like :) Cheers Ole

Jared is an intelligent fanatic! This is one for the ages. I am expecting a larger player like Fiserv to make an acquisition offer considering Four's entrenched customers in the restaurant and entertainment domain.

Yes, I agree. If they continue putting the pedal to the medal, the market should reward them eventually.

Hi, thanks! Great question, a blind spot for me at this time. I would assume it would drift lower, due to competition. However, I believe the switching costs for Shift4’s integrated solution is much higher than market gives them credit for, making it less likely to be commoditised. What are your thoughts on this?
