"Texas Roadhouse has XX mini CEOs running their store base a Former Texas Roadhouse VP on their comp structure $TXRH : "The market partners are compensated extremely well. I don't know their average income now but I would bet it's around half a million dollars. There are probably XX of them out there now. They receive a base salary of $55000 which I don't think has changed in the last four years. Additionally they earn anywhere from X% to X% of the profits on the net income of every store they oversee.

"On Flutter's decentralised strategy compared to Entain: "Well Entain don't follow this operating model Entain moved a lot of their key operations to Hyderabad ending up with several thousand tech experts there. They centralized some product areas like the iGaming platform and possibly the sports betting platform as well. We chose not to go that route. We avoided global roadmaps because as the U.S. market grew everything U.S.-related would have dominated the roadmap due to its value. This would have led to disenfranchised teams in other countries losing out to local competitors. In my view the" @_inpractise on X 2025-07-14 15:44:03 UTC 24.7K followers, 1878 engagements

Many people are trying to do exactly the same thing as Indutrade and Lagercrantz. This trend really took off with the IPO of Storskogen which was initially very successful and created great value in a short time. It was one of the largest IPOs that year. If you look at the top XX IPOs of the last five years Storskogen is probably one of them. They achieved this in a fairly short amount of time.

"A former Wise Platform account manager on Wise treasury function and local liquidity needs $WISE : "They would go to the bank each month to change money for mortgage payments and found the fees extortionate. They agreed that one would pay the other's mortgage and when it was time they would look at the spot exchange rate withdraw the equivalent in pounds and hand it over. That's essentially what Wise scaled. Wise like many fintechs is a sophisticated treasury function with a proprietary in-house algorithm predicting liquidity needs in each currency.

"Indutrade was able to achieve a XX% discount on Swedish deals due to its heritag: "I think it relates to the fact that Indutrade had a strong brand among sellers. These companies are typically based in smaller regions where they employ many local people and are important to the community. As a seller you want an acquirer who will keep the brand maintain the premises and own the company long-term not sell it again in five years. Many sellers saw what happened to companies acquired by Storskogen. They acquired many companies paid in both cash and shares in Storskogen and then sold the company" @_inpractise on X 2025-04-16 14:36:54 UTC 24.7K followers, 2054 engagements

"Former Caseys M&A Director on retail fuel margins post-COVID: $CASY $MUR "To your point it's just irrationality. However there are more pressures today than ever before with rising labor costs and credit card fees taking a chunk out of the business. I think these pressures will make people more rational compared to the past. For example a market leader like Murphy with its vertical integration with Murphy Oil faced less pressure before. But today the pressures are greater. So while there's always some risk I don't see it going backwards.
