353 documents showing 121–180

Super Micro Computer, Inc. SMCI

SMCI — an SEC-fined serial restater now ~22% reliant on Meta — is masking accounting strain and insider selling behind a multiple expansion that should revert, implying 40-50% downside.

Vivion Investments S.à.r.l.

Vivion's €1.44bn bond issuer is a multi-billion euro shell game — fabricated shareholder loans, inflated occupancy and fair value gains, and related-party rents enriching controlling shareholder Amir Dayan.

dLocal DLO

DLO's refusal to reconcile 2020 cash flows in writing, while verbally denying misuse on broker calls, confirms Muddy Waters' view that client funds financed the pre-IPO special dividend.

Saputo Inc. TSX:SAP

Saputo's 25-year dairy roll-up is failing internationally; hidden U.K. pension, Argentina margin outlier, and auditor red flags point to 40%-60% downside to C$13.75-$20.50.

DLocal Ltd. DLO

Muddy Waters is short DLO: contradictory TPV disclosures, implausibly high FX-driven take rates, governance failures and ~$1bn of insider selling point to likely fraud at the Uruguay-based payments processor.

Twist Bioscience TWST

Twist is a textbook Ponzi — price-dumping commodity DNA below cost, inventing a fake 'DNA chip,' masking negative gross margins via WorldCom-style accounting fraud. Target: $0.

Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. BR

Spruce Point argues Broadridge is a low-tech BPO masquerading as SaaS, with a failing $1B+ UBS buildout, accounting red flags, and likely SEC scrutiny — 65-75% downside to $37-52.

FIGS, Inc. FIGS

FIGS is a fading pandemic winner whose founders exaggerated revenue 82% and TAM 135%; at ~4x sales versus 1.2x DTC peers, Spruce Point sees 45%-60% downside to $4.40-$6.05.

AST SpaceMobile, Inc. ASTS

AST SpaceMobile is a $1.8bn 2021-SPAC promoting a physically implausible direct-to-handset satellite broadband dream; the technology won't work as hyped, timelines keep slipping, and SpaceX/Apple competition eliminates any lead.

Hannon Armstrong Sustainable Infrastructure Capital HASI

HASI is 'dumb money' in renewables JVs — sponsors cash out while HASI books non-cash HLBV income on investments unlikely to ever pay out, inflating reported earnings over real economics.

Sunrun RUN

Muddy Waters rebuts Sunrun's response: the 90% PPA-renewal assumption on 20-year-old panels is fantasy, the $668M panel-removal liability is real, and RUN hides its tax basis.

Sunrun Inc. RUN

Sunrun's equity story rests on three shaky pillars — inflated subscriber values, abusive IRS tax-basis gaming, and fragile ABS — that together imply an 85% haircut to Net Earning Assets.

Skechers U.S.A., Inc. SKX

Skechers is a governance-rotten, family-run 'fast follower' whose China growth is collapsing and inventory is bloating — 30%-50% downside to $18.60-$26.00.

Hannon Armstrong Sustainable Infrastructure Capital HASI

HASI is a short: its GAAP and non-GAAP 'Distributable Earnings' are inflated by three non-cash accounting tricks and roundtripped SunStrong loans, masking a cash-losing, capital-raise-dependent business.

Generac Holdings, Inc. GNRC

Generac is a COVID-era generator beneficiary masking collapsing core demand and a string of shady clean-energy acquisitions; Spruce Point sees 40-50% downside to $110-$132/share.

PMV Pharmaceuticals PMVP

PMV's Phase I readout on May 26 will disappoint: PC14586 is too weak, too toxic, and too short-lived to win FDA approval, leaving only $295M of cash behind a $628M market cap.

Alpha Metallurgical Resources, Inc. AMR

AMR masks production, revenues and liabilities while management quietly dumps stock at cyclical coal highs; Spruce Point sees 40-60% downside to $60-90 per share.

IonQ Inc. IONQ

IonQ's 32-qubit 'world's most powerful quantum computer' is a Nikola-style hoax; its only real machine can't reliably add 1+1, and revenue stems from sham related-party deals.

Stryker Corp. SYK

Spruce Point exposes Stryker's FCPA-tainted accounting, failing acquisition roll-up and margin squeeze under CEO Lobo — Strong Sell with 35%-75% downside to $67-$174.50.

Digital World Acquisition Corp DWAC

DWAC's $8bn pro-forma SPAC merger with Trump's TMTG will never close because the SEC is actively investigating it and can kill the deal via a stop order — fair value is the $10 trust cash (-80%).

C3.ai, Inc. AI

C3.ai is a serially rebranded, money-losing AI story-stock propped up by an unraveling Baker Hughes JV and aggressive accounting; Spruce Point sees 40-50% downside to $12.85-$15.40.

Playtika Holding Corp. PLTK

PLTK is a Chinese-insider piggy bank dumped on US public investors — debt-financed pre-IPO cash-out, addictive gambling-akin games facing regulators, and hidden share pledges imply ~45% downside.

TaskUs, Inc. TASK

TaskUs is a Blackstone-promoted BPO with embellished disclosures, Satyam-linked accounting tics, and eroding Facebook unit economics; fair value is 25-50% below spot, or $18-$27.

KE Holdings BEKE

BEKE is systemic fraud: platform scraping and field work show new-home GTV inflated ~126%, revenues inflated 77-96%, with ghost stores, clone stores, and a sham acquisition masking the deception.

Nuvei Corp NVEI

Nuvei is a thrice-rebranded payments roll-up run by executives tied to Ponzi schemes, fraud and adult-industry operators; peer-multiple re-rating implies 40-60% downside to $39-$58.

Astra Space, Inc. ASTR

Astra is a SPAC-bubble rocket company with no revenue, an undersized non-reusable vehicle, and fantastical 300-launch-a-year forecasts; shares should tumble back to the ground.

Focus Universal Inc. FCUV

Argus sees Focus Universal's patented IoT platform, Hydrofarm channel, and smart-home pipeline driving revenue from $1.7M to $150M by 2023, supporting a $15 fair-value vs ~$8.83 price.

Heska Corporation HSKA

Heska is a low-growth animal-health distributor — not the innovator management claims — masquerading at a 9x-sales SaaS multiple; Spruce Point sees 50-60% downside to $90-$115.

ESS Tech, Inc. GWH

Ginkgo Bioworks DNA

Ginkgo Bioworks is a $23B SPAC fraud whose foundry 'customers' are related-party shells that round-trip cash back as phantom revenue — a US 'China Hustle' headed for a Zymergen-style collapse.

TMC the metals company Inc. TMC

TMC is a recycled Nautilus Minerals fraud: $43M siphoned to insiders for worthless seabed licenses, inflated expenses, and a TOML permit at risk of ISA termination.

Lightspeed Commerce, Inc. LSPD

Lightspeed is a cash-burning POS roll-up that inflated its pre-IPO customer count by 85%, hides organic decline behind acquisitions, and should re-rate 60–80% lower to $22.50–$47 as Shopify, Square, Adobe and Amazon crowd it out.

Atomera Inc. ATOM

Atomera's MST IP-licensing model is on the cusp of first commercial customer ramps; probability-weighted fab adoption scenarios support a $28 price target with moonshot upside to $146.

Berkeley Lights BLI

Berkeley Lights' $2M Beacon is a flow-cytometer knockoff customers call a clunker; with flat sales, fleeing insiders, and 50x-cheaper rivals, Scorpion pegs BLI at $0.

Danimer Scientific DNMR

DNMR is a post-SPAC bioplastics story whose 'sold-out' demand, $200M take-or-pay contracts, and $1 trillion TAM are misrepresentations — actual utilization is ~28% and Novomer is a Hail Mary.

Genius Sports Limited GENI

Genius Sports is a low-moat data middleman overpaying for league rights and inflating growth via barter revenue; 55m shares of overhang unlock imminently — 60-80% downside to $3.25-$6.50.

Moxian, Inc. MOXC

MOXC is a Nevada shell whose Chinese 'operating' subsidiaries lack valid licenses, working phones, and a real GM, while related-party debt swaps fueled a 2,400% stock pump.

Oatly Group AB OTLY

Oatly is an over-hyped oat-milk fad with accounting overstatements, hidden management scandals and a $12bn valuation pricing in 57% market share — 30-70% downside.

Acutus Medical Inc. AFIB

Solutions 30 S30

EY's refusal to sign Solutions 30's 2020 audit — after S30 blocked access to information on suspect transactions — confirms Muddy Waters' two-year-old fraud and money-laundering thesis.

Lemonade, Inc. LMND

Muddy Waters is short Lemonade after discovering a critical session-fixation flaw that exposed customer PII to Google's index — a negligence that shatters Lemonade's 'trustworthy' digital-native brand.

Danimer Scientific, Inc. DNMR

Danimer is an over-hyped SPAC bioplastics story whose governance-tainted management, irreconcilable facility claims, failed-PHA precedent, and 138x EBITDA valuation imply 65-100% downside to ~$8.75/share.

QuantumScape QS

QuantumScape is a $15B SPAC whose solid-state battery breakthrough is a Theranos-grade mirage; 15 experts say the science is not there and the April 24 lockup expiry will trigger an insider dump.

Porch Group Inc PRCH

Porch is 'Active Network 2.0' run by the same CEO — a money-losing lead-gen business dressed as SaaS, with barter accounting and hidden debt implying 50%-70% downside to $5-$8.

Arcimoto FUV

American Battery Metals Corporation / Comstock Mining Inc. ABML / LODE

ABML and LODE are hype-driven EV battery-recycling penny stocks with fraud-tied management, fabricated permit claims, and a nonsensical LiNiCo deal — up to 90% downside.

XL Fleet XL

XL Fleet's March 8 rebuttal fails to deny Muddy Waters' core claims — exaggerated pipeline, ~10% reorder rate, overstated fuel savings — confirming XL is SPAC trash.

Skillz, Inc. SKLZ

Skillz's SPAC-era growth story is collapsing — its top three games (88% of revenue) are in freefall while management touts fake NFL and Buck Hunter 'partnerships' to mask the miss.

XL Fleet Corp XL

XL Fleet is SPAC trash: salespeople were paid to fabricate pipeline, most touted customers are inactive, ROI is actually negative, and the stock is worth a fraction of its billion-dollar SPAC valuation.

EHang Holdings, Ltd. EH

EHang is an elaborate stock promotion built on sham sales contracts with a pre-IPO investor masquerading as its main customer, with hobby-grade hardware and a court-frozen China entity that could leave ADRs worthless.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. LDOS

Leidos is concealing defective explosive-detection products from its impaired $1bn L3Harris SD&A deal while inflating cash flow 67-78%; sell with 35-60% downside to $43-$70.

Nevro Corp. NVRO

Nevro is a failed one-trick pony at 15x sales: the pivotal SENZA trial was rigged, HF10 is a phony premise, explant rates run 22-33%, and kickbacks prop up what remains of sales.

Magnite, Inc. MGNI

Magnite is a hype-fueled ad-tech merger masking Telaria's deteriorating CTV business with dubious management and suspect accounting; 25%-50% downside to $14.75-$20.

GreenPower Motor Company GP

GreenPower markets itself as an American EV bus manufacturer but is merely reselling re-logoed Chinese Weichai Eurise buses — not Buy America compliant and worth ~$1.50, implying 90% downside.

Joyy Inc. YY

JOYY is a multibillion-dollar fraud: ~90% of YY Live and ~80% of Bigo revenue is fabricated via bots and gift roundtripping, and Baidu's pending $3.6bn acquisition is buying air.

NIO Inc. NIO

NIO trades at 17-18x NTM EV/Sales — double Tesla's multiple — as a Made-in-China Model Y near $41K threatens the ES6/EC6; Citron closes its 2018 long at a $25 price target.

China Harmony New Energy Auto Holding 3836.HK

MultiPlan Corp MPLN

MultiPlan is a financially-engineered SPAC corpse losing its biggest customer UHC to UHC's own competitor Naviguard; expect 35% revenue loss and 8x+ leverage by 2022.

Avery Dennison Corporation AVY

Avery Dennison masks structural decline with restructuring add-backs and inflated Adjusted EBITDA/FCF; normalized for accounting manipulation, AVY is worth $68-99/share — 35-55% downside.

Sunnova Energy International Inc. NOVA

Sunnova is a misbranded 'solar' company that is actually an unprofitable specialty finance business with Enron-alum management and aggressive non-GAAP metrics — fair value $5-$8 vs. $27 today (70-80% downside).
