Numbers are not wrong-- this was a 1% change to Adj. EBITDA in 2024 and free cash flow was unchanged. This is a recent spin and there is a lot of noise below the line. This is a new CFO who flagged this and we think is doing a great job. FCF/share (ex-WC) should grow 30%+ next year (actual FCF much higher given normalization of WC). Big valuation discount vs $DBD despite much faster and higher-quality growth.

Good quarter from $NATL and thesis on track. -The ATMaaS business continues to outperform... 37% y/y growth in Q3... and it's on track to be 40%+ in Q4, well ahead of our expectations -SSB delivered >50% incremental EBITDA margins in Q3, fueling 21% EBITDA growth for the segment

This $FND print is a VERY weak quality beat. Revs missed, with an increasingly negative exit rate for the quarter, which carried into 4Q. Pre-opening expenses lower, opex barely grew at an inflationary rate, and a lower tax rate accounted for all the upside.

$BOOT just took up its unit growth goal from 900 stores to 1,200. This is a joke. The company needs to cap units at 500. It's building a fleet of long-lived assets for a transitory fashion trend. Management at $BOOT is delusional... CEO left for good reason.

These $CVNA numbers suggest profitability is unraveling. Units looked good, in line w alt data...revenue accel, but massive EBITDA deceleration. Something ain't right here...

Forrest's latest memo echoes his recent podcast interview - belief that the AI platform-shift has created a window of opportunity. For Sea Ltd $SE to be a $1TN company, if they play their cards right. https://t.co/s9IiqSfd4w https://t.co/Q5AEMfnl7P https://t.co/EYgD8uK51z

Monster print out of $NKE -- spot on with our estimate and nearly double the Street. Revenue and Gross Profit both ahead. The company is clearly filling the channel by returning to wholesale. Now it needs to EARN that space back with better product. Punchline is that people are underestimating the recovery EPS power, and this print proved that, in part. Stock is 'expensive', I get it. But will look cheaper over $100 as earnings and cash flow recover.
