@TaylorStCap $MRLN Investor presentations, company filings and public statements clearly represent that they are trying to develop pilotless technology (see intro slide of their IR deck below). Regardless I believe drone technology and auto-pilot assist systems have existed for many years. https://t.co/aCvg9KFLhP

$MRLN. Recent SPAC. Development-stage science project attempting to make autonomous airplanes. Even if they ever get FAA approval, it will take a brave sole to get in a plane with no pilot and/or send high value cargo. Many existing autopilot competitors. Burning $70M/ year.

We just published a high-conviction report on one of our favorite businesses, $XPEL. Our conviction is rooted in a CEO with an exceptional track record: ~47% TSR CAGR and 35% revenue CAGR since taking the helm—who owns stock worth ~20x his salary and has laid out a credible path to roughly triple EPS through self-help margin expansion and continued secular growth. Even using assumptions well below management’s targets, we see a compelling risk-adjusted return with the potential to double our investment by FY28. If management delivers on its vision, we believe the shares can more than triple over that same period. See research report here: https://t.co/ZHKQmeWhmO

@Klad_blok delayed inflection stinks but I think Mr mkt wrongly thinks $LFCR needs to raise equity to redeem the Series A pfd. However, the pfd is designed to PIK. That is a real cost, but nowhere near as bad as an equity raise here. the biz is already won so the inflection is still coming. https://t.co/KmKu3aPsKF
