Baidu Q1 Earnings Preview: Kunlunxin IPO Makes BIDU's Valuation Math Irrational

Summary Baidu is scheduled to report Q1 earnings on May 18. More than the headline numbers, my primary focus will be on the progress of its AI cloud business. The strengthening AI cloud subscription revenue momentum and AI-native marketing are key growth drivers amid core search headwinds. The planned Kunlunxin IPO, targeting a RMB 100 billion valuation, will unlock value, shift the CapEx burden, and enhance Baidu's financial profile. Dividend policy initiation and share buybacks reinforce Baidu's commitment to shareholder returns, with potential for special dividends from excess capital. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Yelp: Stock Comp Isn't An Issue When Repurchases Are Aggressive At A Bargain Valuation

Summary Yelp is rated Buy, trading at 6x economic EBITDA with no debt, $300M cash, and aggressive buybacks despite minimal top-line growth. YELP's Q1 revenue grew 1% with stable services and ad revenue, while ad clicks declined 10% but CPC rose 8%, signaling pricing power. Stock-based compensation remains elevated but is targeted to fall below 6% of revenue by 2027; buybacks retired 12% of shares in a year. Optionality exists in Other Revenue (up 75% YoY) and AI initiatives like Yelp Assistant and Hatch, but execution risk and macro headwinds persist. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Nextdoor: Inflection Point Arrives

Summary Nextdoor Holdings has reached a critical inflection point, returning to double-digit growth and reporting a significant Q1 revenue beat. NXDR's self-serve ad business, now 68% of revenue, grew 28% YoY, while user growth remains nascent, setting up potential for further acceleration. Despite strong results and improved profitability, the stock trades at just 1x forward EV/S, making it the cheapest social media stock relative to peers. Management is aggressively repurchasing shares and guiding for 10%+ revenue growth in 2026, with positive EBITDA and free cash flow supporting buybacks. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha
