GRPN: this company is not dead -- surprising to some. Theres massive torque to the fundamentals; DD below.
Groupon trades at 7.7x 2026 EBITDA with a hidden SumUp asset worth 30% of market cap and a massive short float. The thesis hinges on frequency inflection (from 2.4x to 3.5x+ turns annually via AI-native platform rebuild) generating ~$100M EBITDA per turn, combined with aggressive buybacks into a 20M-share float where 70%+ is short, driving the stock from $25 to $85+ in the base case and $190+ in the bull case.
