Despegar.com: B2B Expansion, But Caution Due To Investigations In Brazil |
Despegar.com posted a 35% increase in gross bookings and a 94% rise in adjusted EBITDA, with the B2B segment now representing 19% of total operations. The acquisition agreement with Prosus could strengthen Despegar's financial and technological position, pending shareholder and regulatory approval. Potential investigation impacts could adjust the acquisition price. Ongoing investigations into alleged fare fraud in Brazil pose reputational and legal risks. The outcome could impact the company's relationships and long-term valuation. |

Assessing Prosus' Value After The Despegar Acquisition And Tencent's Correction |
Prosus N.V. stock trades at a significant discount to its NAV, which primarily consists of Tencent Holdings Limited shares. Tencent itself has underperformed recently, meaning that Prosus potentially offers a “double discount” opportunity for value investors. I don't think Prosus can eliminate its NAV discount any time soon, but moves such as the Despegar.com acquisition are incrementally small steps in the right direction. |
