$ITRN is pristine (was $36 at the time of this post). It’s $55 today, up $3 on a solid Q2. The moron I am, I still haven’t bought. The valuation was never “perfect.” Some things are just worth paying up for. I do see a path to $100. Lesson👉 InfoArb exists even outside microcaps. https://t.co/kJghFGxAph

The management team at $NCMI are idiots. Pausing the dividend and buyback to buy an operate of digital video elevator and lobby advertising in office buildings. For $275 million. They pulled guidance too and net leverage is 3.9x. They are buying this garbage at 14.5x 2025 EBITDA. The $3.5 million of annualized syngeries only gets you to 12.2x EBITDA. And they are headlining a 10x acquisition multiple. Any management team that spends shareholder capital buying overvalued assets needs to be fired.

Stride’s $LRN CEO James Rhyu seems to be getting canned and will be replaced by old-timer Robert Knowling. Is the 71-year-old CEO the right person to run a company that’s struggling with tech implementations, or is he better suited to manage relations with school boards? To calm the markets, LRN pre-released earnings in line with expectations, but they failed to comment on enrollment figures, which spooked markets. This has been a volatile name. If they guide to a return to growth in Q1, this should re-rate from the 9x FCF it currently trades at. If for some reason enrollments decline because parents are holding a grudge after a year of tech issues, watch out below. Operating leverage is very strong here. Mr. Knowling’s contract includes a change-of-control provision.

Market doesn't care for $PAGS earnings. I thought they were fine. Still long and may add. https://t.co/00u7Uy3BOO

A few things to watch for on these earnings calls with regards to $INLX $DERM $USIO $CVV $NSYS $DAIO. This is a tricky microcap lineup… NSYS keeps dancing around its break-even point. Operating leverage can swing EPS huge in either direction. Some clarity would be nice. https://t.co/PhHbsK9aey

Can’t say there’s any slam dunk information arbitrage out of @InfoArbMonitor last batch of Delta Sheets, but there’s still a few interesting tid bits. $ASYS and $PAYS are not crazy cheap, but could be on future numbers. $NNBR probably has the best momentum, but they just went through some massive dilution. $ASYS might be my favorite out of the bunch. Thinking about buying it back at some point.
