Is $EVC is a classic case of thesis drift for its investors? It was all about sequential hypergrowth (with a supposed SOTP margin of safety). Mgmt said Q3 will be below Q2. Now the thesis is about strong year over year growth. What happens in a few quarters when year over year growth is gone, or is low single digits? Is this really a seasonal business? For me it was a small position due to the nature of the situation. Q2 growth was lighter than I expected so I was selling after hours and have fully exited.

Had to re-listen to $STLN (frmr $TOI) call this am. Outstanding results, execution, and overall outlook. Numbers going way higher. The multiple should too. Dan and Rob turned this from a distressed equity to a best in class growth story with ripping revenues, positive FCF and ebitda, a debt refi, rebrand, and multiple market launches on the come. Just incredible execution. Well done! FWIW - and this is not advice, but we think $STLN headed to mid teens in the next 6-12 months....150-250% upside based on our math, which is just an opinion.
