Groupon is still worth a couple of billion despite the beating it's taken from investors. Its revenue and EBITDA have consistently climbed in each year since going public, and there is plenty of cash on hand without a single cent of debt.
As usual, the Motley Fool's analysis is excellent: http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2015/04/07/bull-vs-bear-groupon-inc-stock.aspx http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2015/04/07/bull-vs-bea...
- defen 11y agoGRPN is down nearly 46% since that was written...
- xiaoma 11y agoThat makes the bull side of the argument significantly stronger, especially given that N. American gross billings are up 12% year-over-year in the last quarter. I have no financial position either way, and I'm not claiming everything is rosy for GRPN but it's very far from being a "dead unicorn" and at least by my analysis the stock is pretty undervalued at the moment.
- tedunangst 11y agoThe lower the stock drops the more it will rocket up!
- draw_down 11y agoThe Motley Fool does seem to think that way sometimes.
- dasil003 11y agoGroupon's problem is with repeat business. I think they're still churning through naive businesses that don't understand the value proposition. If they can't get repeat customers then their upside is limited. I would be very wary of judging Groupon based purely on historic cashflow.
