Why do people think this is an intelligent response? LFVN is a MLM pyramid scheme that hawks miracle cures for all kinds of shit like cancer, ALS, etc. (via testimonials of course to avoid technically breaking the law) and has even gotten warning from the FDA. Just because it's a shit scam company doesn't mean I'm going to short it. People are irrational as fuck and the risk profile of a short can absolutely destroy you. Even if the company is complete shit.

I'll take a look at ELVT. Buybacks can be a very good sign. I think LFVN, reporting just 2.xx% short interest, may be a short squeeze somehow because despite the low shares they're actually listed as Hard To Borrow at my major broker.

GrandBumble

ELVT is in the same boat with even more aggressive share buybacks - they're retiring 2% of shares outstanding every month through at least the end of the year. I'm in both to some degree but they both have concerns that you have to be comfortable with. LFVN is profitable and buying back with a low PE but the business is shrinking. If the negative growth is due to more than just COVID headwinds and the trend does not reverse then the business may become worthless. ELVT management is so confident in the business it is buying back shares instead of paying down debt. If their business hits even a moderate speed bump they will need to raise money or face bankruptcy. Not really the right subreddit for these though, there's no short squeeze here, they're just buyback plays

Invested in cheap stock with no debt, great cash flow exceeding $215m annual revenue, profitable, $90m market cap with buybacks going at full speed from a $20m cash treasury, chilling out. $LFVN

WSAlpacaGaming

I think the big play for tomorrow morning's earnings is $LFVN (nov 4) LifeVantage. $90m market cap, low float being aggressively bought back by the company, $27 million cash and 0 debt, $13 million free cash flow and net income, being completely plowed back into the stock.

I purchased $LFVN thinking I was getting a screaming deal and they have been a major disappointment. They are currently at around $8.10 a share, well off their pre- and post-Covid highs of around $15.00 a share. Analyst ratings are all neutral to bullish, P/E is well below industry average, and they have beat or met earnings in the last 3 quarters. Am I overlooking something major here?
