@pitdesi@prajitn Managing the pre-AI SaaS business plus quarterly SEC reporting would be a major distraction and resource suck away from where the go forward growth lies.
It’s a great move.
@junkbondinvest A lot of PC loans to SaaS have LTVs set to a % of ARR— basically if the market continues to support > 1.0x ARR sales, they may largely get par back. TBD— we’re still in the early innings for the broader ARR loan market shakeout.
@Jason Just like for the hyper scalers in the age of AI, FCF is *the metric* in understanding an enterprises financial wherewithal.
The global market for US treasuries an exorbitant privilege for us. We need to defend that by managing our budgets.
@pitdesi Oh man yes. Pista is king— the uncles were right. But in a can of planters where it 50% peanuts (even if advertised otherwise) Brazils a breathe of fresh air. And a good selenium supplement
@CommodMkt@MonicaVarman How fossil fuel intensive is compute (and heating / cooling / transport ) over the next 2 / 5 / 10 years?
Agreed the world continues to be more energy intensive over time— but what happens energy productivity over this impending energy capex investment cycle?
@AzizSunderji@GayBearRes How much does a differential in the cost of housing (or cost of housing relative to average income) matter?
If coastal housing costs have boomed while the Midwest has yet to catch up, perhaps that’s slowing migration out?
Compounded by remote work flexibility.
@FreightAlley@Micro2Macr0 Excited to see the re-industrialization of the US.
That said, the war started at the end of February — presumably some of the rates are related to spot or future price for diesel going up?
@paulg@davieball Couldn’t agree more— unlike venture capital, debt was not built to companies that should grow and cash burn the way early stage venture does.
And >1x liquidity covenants actually reduce your runway at that.
