NASDAQ Gallery (@TP_TIGER98) reportedBending Spoons($BSP ) is best understood as a software holding company built around recurring cash flow. Its playbook is direct: buy a digital business with proven demand, rebuild the product and cost base, improve pricing and conversion, then reinvest the cash into another acquisition. Evernote, Vimeo, WeTransfer, Remini and AOL are assets inside that operating system. The numbers make the model clear. In Q1 2026, subscriptions produced 84% of revenue, advertising 12%, and other sources 4%. Revenue grew from $387 million in 2023 to $1.31 billion in 2025, with acquisitions driving much of the increase. The figure I keep coming back to is customer tenure. In Q1 2026, 48% of subscription revenue came from customers with at least five years of tenure, including 28% from customers with at least ten. That gives Bending Spoons time to make deep changes to products it plans to own for the long run. The investment case comes down to execution: buy well, improve the asset, and compound the cash. The risk follows the same logic. Acquisition-led growth only compounds if management keeps choosing the right targets and improves them without weakening products that users already depend on.

mosfet (@CPlagmann) reportedHey @AOL So you block my email out of the blue. I log in. You demand test verify. Never comes. Get locked out. I call. Wait 20 minutes. You can fix it for a fee. Or I am locked out for 24 hours. UNACCEPTABLE.

frakmaga2025 (@FrakMAGA2022) reported@Futurenvesting Well, you can be sure that any company they buy is struggling for cash or can't grow, so they buy them and having a big layoff. Some AI info Financial Impact of the Strategy Skyrocketing Revenue: Consolidated revenue surged from $387 million in 2023 to $1.31 billion in 2025, and hit $704 million for Q2 2026 alone. High Operating Margins: Their operating and adjusted profitability have expanded rapidly, with adjusted operating margins reaching 54% and operating profits more than doubling to $278 million in 2025. The Debt Trade-off: While the individual apps become profitable, the parent company funds its aggressive shopping spree (acquiring giants like Vimeo, AOL, Eventbrite, and Airtable) through heavy borrowing. This leaves them carrying billions in debt, meaning a significant chunk of their operating income goes toward servicing interest payments. The stock went public on July 1, 2026, pricing its initial public offering at $29.00 per share. It surged 40% on its first day and currently trades around $39.31. The Good: Revenue skyrocketed 126% year-over-year to $704.2 million, and adjusted earnings per share hit $0.46 (beating the $0.27 consensus). The Bad: The company’s full-year 2026 revenue guidance came in at $2.78 billion to $2.82 billion, missing Wall Street’s $2.90 billion projection. The Growth Reality: While headline growth looks massive, organic revenue growth was just 3%. Almost all of the revenue expansion is coming from bought growth—specifically the rapid fire-sale absorptions of companies like AOL, Eventbrite, and Vimeo.

Nancy (@SJSU4me) reported@Irina_exh Never had an AOL Address. Yes to the rest....

Custo (@purp_sqrt) reportedAgain, not because it's a bad idea. It's less profitable because of the cost. If you need a reference, AOL. They did exactly what all the frontiers of AI are doing. It's free as long as you sign up then fractional costs later with all these benefits. AOL gone tho.
