Phillips 66 PSX

Phillips 66 has underperformed Marathon and Valero for years while CEO Mark Lashier collected $79M; elect four Elliott nominees to break up the conglomerate and restore accountability.

Phillips 66 PSX

Phillips 66's dilutive midstream pivot has destroyed TSR versus refining peers; a midstream spin and refreshed governance — as at Marathon and Suncor — can unlock the buried value.

Phillips 66 PSX

Phillips 66's conglomerate discount and lagging refining execution have cost shareholders 450% vs peers; spinning midstream, divesting CPChem, and refreshing the board unlock ~75% upside to $183.

Phillips 66 PSX

Phillips 66's conglomerate structure masks world-class midstream and chemicals assets; separating them, fixing refining, and refreshing the board closes a decade-long 188% TSR gap versus peers.

Phillips 66 PSX

Phillips 66's refining kit rivals Valero's, but weak commercial execution and bloated corporate leave a multi-dollar EBITDA-per-barrel gap that Streamline66 — portfolio fixes and a refreshed board — closes.

Phillips 66 PSX

Phillips 66's conglomerate hides world-class midstream worth $40bn+; spinning midstream, closing the $3.75/bbl refining gap to Valero, and refreshing the board can lift PSX from $120 to $200+.

Phillips 66 PSX

Inefficient conglomerate structure trades like a refiner despite ~40% of EBITDA from midstream

Pfizer destroyed $20-60bn of value since 2019 despite a $40bn COVID windfall; Starboard wants the board to hold Bourla accountable for peer-median R&D/M&A returns.

Pfizer Inc. PFE

Pfizer squandered its $40bn COVID windfall on overpriced M&A while delivering almost none of the 15 promised blockbusters; the Board must hold management accountable.

C&C Group plc CCR

C&C has lagged peers by 81% since its 2019 LSE listing under four CEOs and a board owning 0.05%; electing Engine's two nominees brings M&A and capital-allocation expertise.

Eurofins Scientific SE ERF

Eurofins' €556m 'excess cash' earned just 1.42% vs banks' quoted ~2.88%, echoing the NMC Health fraud tell; only radical disclosure on cash, entities, and Dr. Martin's real estate can clear it.

Match Group, Inc. MTCH

Match owns Tinder and Hinge but trades at 8.5x FCF; fixing Tinder, lifting margins above 40%, and aggressive buybacks — or going private — closes a ~45% peer discount.

Match Group, Inc. MTCH

Match owns Tinder and Hinge yet trades at <8.5x FCF; fixing Tinder, lifting margins above 40%, and aggressive buybacks — or a sale — can unlock substantial upside.

Eurofins Scientific SE ERF

Muddy Waters is short Eurofins: controlling shareholder Dr. Gilles Martin has siphoned capital via above-market real-estate leasebacks for 20 years, and the financials appear engineered to overstate revenue, profits, and cash.

BP plc BP

BP under Lund and Looney's failed energy-transition strategy has produced sector-worst TSR, a record valuation discount, and governance failures — the board must engage with dissenting shareholders.

Elanco Animal Health ELAN

Elanco has destroyed billions under CEO Simmons and an insular classified board; replacing four directors at the 2024 AGM installs accountability and unlocks the animal-health turnaround.

CPI Property Group S.A. CPIPGR

Muddy Waters is short CPI Property Group's credit: its €19.2B portfolio appears inflated via implausible Berlin gains, cherry-picked Bubny landbank comps, and occupancy rates realtor listings show are overstated by ~2x.

Parkland Corporation PKI

Parkland's entrenched board has driven a decade of peer underperformance and a sector-low 6.9x multiple; a shareholder-led board refreshment is needed to close the valuation gap.

Phillips 66 PSX

Phillips 66 has lost investor trust by taking its eye off refining; adding two refining-experienced directors — and Marathon's 2019 playbook if targets slip — unlocks ~75% upside to $205+.

Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. ARE

Alexandria's life-science office portfolio is being hit by the same WFH hurricane as traditional offices, and shares face 30-40% downside if re-rated to coastal office REIT peers.

Union Pacific Corporation UNP

UNP owns the best Class I rail franchise but ranks worst on every metric under CEO Lance Fritz; bringing back operator Jim Vena could double the stock to ~$400 by 2025.

Six Flags Entertainment Corp. SIX

Six Flags' owned real estate is worth more than its entire equity value; spinning it to a REIT buyer like VICI plus fixing the botched 2022 repositioning can double the stock.

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.

Box, Inc. BOX

Box is a best-of-breed cloud content platform that has missed every revenue target since IPO; a reconstituted board can fix go-to-market execution and close a massive valuation gap to peers.

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.

Hilton Grand Vacations HGV

HGV is overpaying 10x EBITDA for Diamond and handing Apollo effective control with no premium; standalone HGV is worth $55 — shareholders should vote AGAINST.

Corteva, Inc. CTVA

Corteva's spin-off potential is squandered by CEO Jim Collins and a complacent Board; Starboard nominates eight directors to force leadership change and unlock operating value.

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.

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.

D.R. Horton and Invitation Homes DHI/INVH

COVID-19 has supercharged the suburban single-family thesis; entry-level homebuilder D.R. Horton and single-family rental REIT Invitation Homes trade 20%+ below highs despite accelerating demand.

Burford Capital BUR

Burford's 2019 financials rely on reclassifications and definition changes to mask an -11.8% drop in cash receipts, -35.5% drop in deployments, and $20.6m of unexplained fair-value gains.

Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ALXN

Alexion's stand-alone strategy has failed — serial M&A missteps and a deep valuation discount mean the Board must pursue a sale now to unlock 40-50% upside for shareholders.

GCP Applied Technologies GCP

Starboard rebuts GCP: stock has lagged peers on every milestone since the 2016 spin-off, and Starboard's superior director slate can finally drive the turnaround management hasn't delivered.

Empire State Realty Trust ESRT

Empire State Realty Trust is uniquely exposed to NYC's 'existential hurricane' — COVID, WFH, SALT cap, and WeWork's collapse crush demand while observation-deck revenue vanishes, driving shares substantially lower.

New Pacific Metals NUAG

Bolivia-focused silver developer New Pacific trades 17x peers on concessions likely acquired illegally under a now-ousted regime; Hindenburg targets C$0.37, 90%+ downside.

eHealth Inc. EHTH

eHealth books three years of Medicare Advantage commissions upfront while true churn has spiked to 47%; corrected, every MA enrollee loses $135-$402 — a cash-incinerating stock promotion.

NMC Health plc NMC

Newly disclosed NMC share pledges corroborate Muddy Waters' hidden-debt thesis: likely Enron-style off-balance-sheet financing or subsidies from undisclosed Shetty-family related parties inflating margins.

Burford Capital BUR

Burford's dismal H2 2019 — 85% YoY collapse in realized gains, Petersen sold to its own fund, vanishing cash, and a lost Perry Ellis ruling — validates Muddy Waters' short thesis on aggressive marks and a flawed model.

eBay Inc. EBAY

eBay is deeply undervalued; separating Classifieds at peer-level ~22x EBITDA multiples and enforcing a more aggressive Marketplace cost and revenue plan would unlock substantial upside versus today's 8.1x multiple.

Ferrovial FER

TCI, a ~1% shareholder, commends Ferrovial's CDP 'A' grade but presses for stronger SBTI-aligned targets, RE100 membership, and leadership in de-carbonising aviation and road transport.

Airbus AIR

TCI, a 1.5% Airbus shareholder since 2012, demands stronger climate disclosure, an A-grade CDP score, and Airbus leadership in mandating low-carbon synthetic aviation fuels — or TCI will vote against directors.

Ferguson plc FERG

Ferguson is a US specialty distributor trapped in a UK listing; demerging Wolseley and relisting in the US closes a 10.4x-vs-17.2x EBITDA peer gap.

AT&T T

Unizo Holdings Company 3258.T

Unizo's employee-buyout 'mechanism' was invented after the fact to favor a friendly bidder

Burford Capital BUR

Burford cherry-picks which investments count as 'concluded' to avoid truing up marks; the 110% vs 19% gap between unconcluded and concluded returns exposes systematic fair-value manipulation.

Marathon Petroleum Corporation MPC

Separating Marathon into three independent businesses unlocks $22-$40bn of value (60%+ upside)

AT&T Inc. T

AT&T T

Burford Capital BUR

Burford's rebuttal on Napo is a dodge: a 2013 Glenmark arbitration MW surfaces proves Napo was a failed investment BUR disguised as a winner.

Burford Capital Ltd. BUR

Muddy Waters hires ex-CIA behavioral analysts Qverity to show Burford management's rebuttal is riddled with evasion, aggression and persuasion — corroborating the original fraud thesis.

Burford Capital BUR

Burford's rebuttal confirms it: aggressive mark-to-model fair-value gains, manipulated ROIC/IRR, and a CEO-CFO marriage make BUR an Enron-style stock promotion the FCA should investigate.

Burford Capital Ltd. BUR LN

Burford is a poor litigation-finance business masquerading as a great one through Enron-like fair value accounting, four-case concentration, and a CEO-wife CFO — and is arguably insolvent.

Sony Corporation 6758.T

Sony trades at a ~50% conglomerate discount; spinning Semiconductors into 'Sony Technologies', divesting listed stakes, and refocusing on entertainment unlocks ~2x SOTP upside.

N/A (Japanese M&A regulatory guidelines; Alps Alpine cited as precedent)

Dealreporter coverage of Japan's new METI M&A guidelines that strengthen special committees and independent directors in MBOs, with Oasis Management endorsing the reforms as minority-shareholder protection.

FleetCor Technologies FLT

FleetCor's Clean Advantage carbon-offset program is a $100M+ green fraud — 97% of fees stay with FLT, demanding CEO Clarke's resignation and implying ~57% downside.

Casino Guichard-Perrachon CO

Rallye, Finatis, Euris and Foncière Euris entering procédure de sauvegarde vindicates MW's 2015 warnings

Casino Guichard-Perrachon CO

Rallye's safeguard filing vindicates Muddy Waters' 2015 warning that Casino was being hollowed out to sustain Jean-Charles Naouri's parasitic, debt-laden holding structure.

Bristol-Myers Squibb BMY

BMY is overpaying ~$30B for Celgene's risky pipeline, betting on 10 blockbusters in 8 years vs 3 in 15; shareholders should vote against and unlock 900bps of standalone margin upside.

Bristol-Myers Squibb BMY

BMY's $91B Celgene deal bets the company on a REVLIMID patent cliff and pipeline requiring 10 blockbusters in 8 years — shareholders should vote no and pursue a standalone Amgen-style transformation.
