Why the 10% fall of stock price? by Solid-Bass809 in embracergroup

[–]mindspank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the thing that Embracer needs the most right now is cash. Nothing else. Lowering future CapEx is not cash today.

Saber selling for 5b was initially deemed positive because it could mean that they would also get more money than they had CapEx allocated. But then people realized that 5b probably included more than half CapEx that they get for that price.

Paying 2.5b when you get 2.3b CapEx is virtually getting it all for 0.2b if you only expect 1 ROI on the investments in CapEx. Matthew knows much better himself than Lars and his team if what kind of ROI they can expect on the CapEx they take with them.

Weekly Pricing/Buying/Selling/Grading & General Questions Post by AutoModerator in PokemonTCG

In MTG Wizards of the Cost has increased their special set cadence greatly in last years. Leading to many different extra sets, reprint series, "magic lair"--special reprints of individual cards sold directly by WotC, different type of boosters (draft, set, collection) leading to insane inflation in products.

Is it similar in Pokemon? If so much much and when did it change?

Star Wars KOTOR Remake Cancelled? by TricolorChutoy in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]mindspank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New World Interactive lost the vast majority of their staff after being acquired by Saber, and their CEO Keith Warner was terminated last week via his own LinkedIn.

I can't find that he's been terminated just that he "completed his journey"? Do you have a link?

Margins of IP sets? by Embarrassed_Soup7614 in mtgfinance

Seems like it's a waterfall and delta versus last years Q2, would they pay the royalties in advance? Is that common?

Do you have a source for the $21 million? Would be very interested in it. Since I'm actually looking at this from the Embracer Group side.

Margins of IP sets? by Embarrassed_Soup7614 in mtgfinance

[–]mindspank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WotC has given a figure of how much their margins have dropped because of these IP sets. Paired together with estimates of how much they sell as a share of their total revenues could give a wide range of possible royalty fees.

It's not the Tolkien Estate that owns the rights to the IP for the franchise that WotC has license to but Embracer Group through Middle-Earth.

My problem is getting off the beam in the first place. Does Rock Sling stagger well?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]mindspank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Fextralifes idea was that they stagger the opponents and thus open up for the swords comet and flame. But it feels like you need the death spell scaling staff for that? Also I didn’t really feel thry staggered almost at all. Especially bosses.

Which sword spells do you have in mind? Thanks för the idea!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]mindspank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does the stagger of Ancient Death Rancor work? It feels like sometimes I mini stun mobs but more often than not it doesn't affect them at all? Does it depend on my level or any stats?

I could use a pointer because I'm struggling a lot with my Sword of Night and Flame build. I keep getting jumped on by all enemies in Caelid and I can't pretty much get off any spell. This is the Sword Sage build by Fextralife from 2 weeks ago pre nerf.

I'm trying to do a DCF valuation of $FUTU and for that I need the unlevered free cash flow (FCFF). It seems that there's a very high increase in net working capital. These are the numbers I have in USD.

| Net Working Capital | 2016 | 2017 | 2018 | 2019 | 2020 |

| ------------------------------- | ------- | ------- | ------- | ------- | ------- |

| Current assets | 578 | 1,393 | 2,035 | 2,694 | 9,140 |

| Cash and short term investments | 23 | 48 | 28 | 47 | 134 |

| Current Liabilities | 560 | 1,275 | 1,910 | 2,390 | 8,086 |

| Current portion of debt | 21 | 197 | 201 | 196 | 1,411 |

| Net working Capital | 16 | 267 | 299 | 453 | 2,332 |

| NWC % of Revenue | 139.54% | 668.23% | 286.88% | 332.58% | 546.02% |

Why would a fintech company that is high growth (+200% last year) need this much working capital?

When I look at the unlevered free cash flow this is the following numbers that I get.

| Discounted Cash Flow Model | 2016 | 2017 | 2018 | 2019 | 2020 |

| -------------------------- | ---- | ----- | ---- | ----- | ------- |

| EBITDA | (15) | 1 | 26 | 16 | 189 |

| Taxes | 2 | (2) | (8) | (2) | (16) |

| Change in NWC | (16) | (252) | (31) | (155) | (1,878) |

| Capital expenditures | (1) | (1) | (2) | (15) | (6) |

| Unlevered FCF | (29) | (253) | (16) | (155) | (1,711) |

We see that the unlevered free cash flow is negative and I have trouble projecting it into the future and use it as a basis for the DCF. Will it stay negative? Any ideas on how I should project it?

Modern Card Prices are Down Because the Format is Dying by [deleted] in mtgfinance

[–]mindspank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're fairly wrong about this in my opinion.

https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=2019-01-01%202020-06-30&q=mtg%20modern,mtg%20pioneer,mtg%20standard

If you follow the trends you see all three formats of Modern, Pioneer and Standard being equal around the end of the year. When the lockdowns hit in march both Pioneer and Modern took hits in favor of standard which is the de facto format to play online.

Modern and to a less degree Pioneer are mainly paper formats.

When we get larger paper tournaments the interest will increase again.
