The thesis, from the filings

Proficient Auto Logistics, Inc earns about -7% on equity, but has diluted owners by 54% over 2 years — worth asking whether the growth reaches owners. The cash-flow models don't apply cleanly here — the ledger says why below. Whether it’s worth owning at today’s price is the last question — and yours to answer, below.

Superscripts are receipts. Each links to the SEC filing the number came from (full list at the bottom). A derived or summed figure cites every filing line it was built from.

iii. Is this a good business?

Management signal · capital allocation
+54% shares · 2y

Share count is up 54% over 2 years — owners have been diluted. Worth asking what they got for it. Total debt has held roughly steady.

Signals, not verdicts — read from the filings above. Numbers don’t prove a moat; they show its footprint. You decide.
