In reply to Wordmark Critique:
I like the font. Is it the same like they currently use?
Maybe adjust the kerning between /N/ & /E/ making the vertical line lighter than for the /L/. (The horizontal lines in the /E/ let it appear heavier than it is)
On a different note, if you have a look at their website a sans serif, could be possible as well.
I tried the logo in a stencil sans serif
