No Automated Profits in Mobileye’s IPO

Given increased competition, a history of unprofitability, and an undifferentiated product offering, there are no automated profits in this IPO.

Chobani’s Low Growth Business is Priced for Hyper Growth

We think Chobani is worth closer to $2.1 billion given that Greek yogurt is no longer a disruptive high-growth product.

Sweetgreen: Healthy Product but Unhealthy IPO

We think the stock is likely worth $0 given the intense competition from other new entrants and established restaurants, which are easily replicating Sweetgreen’s menu and concept.

Even At a Lowered Valuation, Don’t Buy Rivian’s IPO

We are skeptical that Rivian’s IPO will deliver for investors, even with the lower valuation. Investors shouldn’t buy a stock just because it’s in a hot sector.

Rivian: This IPO Won’t Deliver

We think this stock could be worth as little as $13 billion and the expectations implied in its valuation are unreasonable.

Allbirds Is Already Overvalued at Expected IPO Valuation

We do not think investors should expect to make any money in Allbird’s stock if the rumored $2 billion valuation comes true.

Warby Parker Direct Listing: See Through This Optical Illusion

While we like Warby Parker’s business model, we find the $3 billion valuation much too high for investors to expect a profit from investing in this listing.

After analyzing the updated S-1, we still think Robinhood is significantly overpriced and worth no more than $9 billion.

Didi Global’s Lower Valuation Is Still a Bad Ride for Investors

Despite the big drop in the valuation, we still do not think investors should expect to make any money in this IPO.

Dough-Not Buy This Overpriced IPO

We think the stock is worth no more than $10/share and that JAB Holdings is looking to cash out at the expense of new investors.

Different Country, Same Bad Business Model

A $100 billion valuation implies Didi will own 50% of the world ride share and food delivery market, a highly unlikely event.

Marqeta’s IPO Is Priced Beyond Perfection

We see no reason for investors to buy this IPO. Wait for the price to drop to below $9/share or allocate to stocks with much better risk/reward.

Squarespace Valuation Is Out of This World

This direct listing looks like a bad to deal to us, and we would not be buyers of this stock at anywhere close to the expected valuation.

Strong Earnings Won’t Stop Coinbase’s Slump

Coinbase is not likely to fulfill the profit expectations baked into the stock’s current valuation due to rising competition in the cryptocurrency trading space.

At the midpoint of its price range, The Honest Company is valued at ~$1.4 billion and earns our Unattractive rating.
