Thirty-two percent of the float is short a business holding $1.7bn of net cash that turns 32 cents of every revenue dollar into free cash, with revenue up 22% and new revenue landing at a 38% gross margin against a 22% book — the incremental economics are improving, not rolling over, so this is a crowded short on a living business rather than a crowd that is early. The strongest fact against it is the receivables line growing 90 points faster than revenue, which is exactly where a hardware-deployment story hides revenue that has not been collected, and it sits next to a diluted share count up 22% funded by at least $424.3m of stock sold. The multiple has already come down 26% while revenue grew 22%, so I am paid to wait. I sell if the receivables gap widens again alongside decelerating revenue, because that combination would mean the bears are right about recognition rather than wrong about demand.
