Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 3% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published January 24, 2026
This is mostly a short-term trade around a planned buyout at $24.55. That announced price gives a clear target for the coming months. Recent developments like an insider tax sale and multiple law-firm notices can make the gap between current price and deal price get smaller or bigger. The plan is to buy near the lower end to profit if the gap narrows, but be ready to exit if new headlines increase deal risk.
Primary drivers
- Buyout price gives a clear short-term target near $24.55
- Price gap can shrink as the deal moves forward
- Lawsuits or filings can quickly make the gap wider
- Less volatile because it's tied to a defined deal price
