Snap Up More Shares

By -

Update - February 6, 2024

Q4 numbers were solid, but the market isn't happy. Snap is down some 30% after hours despite guiding towards Q1 revenue growth of up to 15%. The stock is a bargain on massive weakness due to the strong move towards subscriptions. 

-Q4 Non-GAAP EPS of $0.08 beats by $0.02.
-Rev of $1.36B (+5% Y/Y) misses by $20M.
-DAUs increased 10% year-over-year to 414 million

Guidance
Rev of $1,095 million to $1,135 million vs $1.12B consensus, implying YoY growth of 11% to 15%.

-Snapchat+, our subscription service that offers exclusive, experimental, and pre-release features grew from 2 million to 7 million subscribers in 2023, and exited the year with an annualized revenue run rate of $249 million.

  • Snap Inc. shares have doubled in the last quarter and have significant upside potential.
  • The Snapchat+ subscription service has seen explosive growth, with the potential to quickly surpass $500 million in annualized revenue in early 2024.
  • Snap's goal for 2024, including 14 million Snapchat+ subscribers and 20% ad revenue growth, appears achievable.
  • The stock now trades closer to social media sector EV/S multiples, but Snap has substantial upside to growth estimates for 2024 to fuel a further rally.

Snap Inc. (NYSE:SNAP) shares have doubled in the last quarter, and the stock likely has much more upside. A lot of small and mid-cap stocks were crushed during the last couple of years, providing substantial upside to just return to more normal valuations. My investment thesis remains Bullish on the social messaging stock, though investors clearly missed an opportunity to own Snap at far lower levels.

Aurora Cannabis: Deal Or No Deal

By -
Aurora Cannabis was left out of the major deal making in 2018. The cannabis company updated FQ2 guidance to revenues of $50 to $55 million with a continued focus on pure production growth. The stock is down as the market is becoming less impressed with commodity farming operations due to the prime Oregon example. The stock is below key resistance at $5.40 as medical cannabis patient totals failed to impress. As the end of 2018 came and went,   Aurora Cannabis   ( ACB ) was a notable absentee from the deal making in the cannabis market. Just about all of the other major Canadian cannabis players got large investments or signed up powerful partnerships, but the related stocks didn't generally maintain rallies following the deals. Based on the early legalization data in Canada and Oregon, the best option for Aurora Cannabis might actually be selling production capacity while the Canadian market remains hot.

The Deutsche Bank analyst call on the meeting suggests the company still isn't ready to produce actual numbers from the generative AI demand.  C3.ai ( NYSE: AI ) shares  fell more than 8%  on Friday after investment firm Deutsche Bank reiterated its sell rating on the enterprise software company after it held its investor meeting. Analyst Brad Zelnick said the event "left a lot to be desired" as there were  no details on financials, "limited" updates on the company's operations and investors did not really attend the event, despite it being positioned as for them. "While we appreciate the vast opportunity presented by AI, the event did nothing to ease our skepticism on the true differentiation of the company's platform, its traction with custome
