Recent News & Updates
Is Carvana Stock A Good Long-Term Investment? Down 90% But Still Risky
Carvana is down 90% since all-time highs of the past year. On the surface, this looks like a secular growth story trading at deeply discounted valuations. While the stock will provide phenomenal upside in the bull case, there are numerous reasons to doubt the long-term outlook. In particular, one should not ignore the highly leveraged balance sheet which strains an already negative cash flow position. The stock is down 90%, but valuation is not the problem here.
Steel City Capital - Carvana: Up Against The Clock From A Liquidity Perspective
On the short side, Steel City Capital's largest contributor by far has been Carvana. CVNA was nearly breakeven from an EBITDA perspective last year. All companies hit "bumps in the road" during their lifecycles, but such issues are more acute in CVNA's case because of their heavy reliance on external funding. The key drivers of CVNA's business are rolling over, it's unclear they'll rebound any time soon, and the company is up against the clock from a liquidity perspective.
Carvana Stock: A Dreadful Risk-Return Profile
Carvana stock is in danger of another drawdown despite the company's progress during the past year. The firm's capital restructure remains a concern. Quantitative metrics suggest the stock's risk profile isn't up to par. The economic circumstances that carried the stock in the past have shifted. Carvana's income and cash flow statements aren't one and the same.
