Skillz Should Consider An Alternative To Its Current Turnaround Plan

Summary Skillz (SKLZ) stock has surged over 35%, on growing confidence in the mobile game company's turnaround plan. While the situation has improved, I remain skeptical that a move to steady profitability will be flawlessly executed. That said, there may be an alternate route management could take, to maximize shareholder value. I'm keeping an eye on SKLZ for now, waiting for shares to pullback, either due to a disappointing earnings release, or because of ongoing compliance issues. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Skillz Inc.: A Cost-Cutting Gamble With A Limited Runway

Summary Skillz’s revenue has continued to fall in the latest quarter due to a strategic reduction in user acquisition and engagement marketing spend aimed at improving ROI. The company’s cost-cutting measures have resulted in a simultaneous fall in both revenue and expenses, potentially harming long-term growth. Management justifies its approach with the payback period metric, claiming it will recover user acquisition costs within six months and achieve profitability. Skillz has a strong liquidity position with a cash balance, providing a runway of 2–3 years to reverse its declining profitability. Although the company seems undervalued based on cash reserves, long-term investors should wait for clear signs of sustained profitability and revenue stabilization.

Skillz: Still A No-Go, Despite Small Progress With The Turnaround

Summary Skillz trades at a discount to tangible book value, but this valuation discount could continue to melt away, as management continues to pursue a full-on turnaround. There were a few positive takeaways with the mobile gaming company's latest quarterly results, but reaching profitability remains a work in progress. Furthermore, Skillz's tangible book value may not be as high as its seems, given how much of it is made up of a stake in illiquid investments. Considering these factors, staying away SKLZ stock likely remains the best course of action. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha
