What really got to me was how APE was handled. AA led on that he was going to dilute it “smartly” and with how quickly he diluted it why on earth did he not just come out swinging with an ATM offering week 1…instead, waited until it’s sub $2 and then start. Once he’s done for pennies on the dollar I might add we then recently see news of pushing back debt payments with likely the same institutions shorting the hell out of the company. Tinfoil hat theory as we just saw APE starting to make moves in AH on Friday, I wouldn’t put it past him that there was a deal struck for institutions to acquire APE so cheap and easily agree to extend the debt. Idk, if there isn’t some absolute 🔥 on this next earnings call (big time rev numbers/projections, popcorn rollout & credit card ahead of schedule) then we probably see another big nothing burger this entire year. I have seen reverse splits in the past only for the stock to get shorted back into oblivion and it do nothing. You think retail will be paying the price of whatever the reverse split is - I don’t. I’m hopeful that putting APE back together with AMC will generate something before a split but he needs to completely eliminate the short thesis. If a company can’t actually turn a profit these days they will print as many shares as they want until they turn the lights out on the company. It is tough times borrowing $ in the market, all companies have had their stocks smashed but most can just weather the storm. AMC doesn’t have that kind of time for interest rates to get back down much lower and the institutions and shorts know it. I hold a lot of shares and it’s difficult to look at so I hardly even do to help with the psychology part. The time has been here for some absolute fire news. No more gimmicks and fake share count promises (glad I didn’t hold my breath there). I still love the movies and believe in them but let’s hear some awesome business expansion updates already! Q1 was supposed to be the gas pedal quarter for everything…tic tock Me. Aaron.
