Alluvial Capital Management stated the following regarding MRC Global Inc. (NYSE:MRC) in its first quarter 2024 investor letter:

"MRC Global Inc. (NYSE:MRC), our equipment distributor to oil and gas drillers and gas utilities, also had good news for us. The company issued healthy 2024 earnings guidance and revealed a plan to pay off its term loan with a combination of cash flow and a draw on its asset-backed loan facility. The market responded positively, but shares still change hands at just five times 2024 operating cash flow. MRC has also announced it will provide activist hedge fund Engine Capital with a board seat. I welcome the additional oversight that Engine will provide. There is no word on progress toward resolving the situation with the unhappy holder of MRC Global’s convertible preferred shares, but a resolution could come at any time and would serve as a positive catalyst for MRC shares."
