2. Multiple CEO changes and strategic misfires
3. Declining revenue for three years
4. Underperforming the ASX200 by ~100% since 2019
Osmium highlights its successful campaign with Leaf Group (NASDAQ: LEAF), which resulted in an acquisition at 1.4x EV/Sales. They argue that Articore's current 0.17x EV/Sales valuation is among the lowest for digital marketplaces, citing poor board decisions.
