Investment Highlights Why It Matters Which of these 2 stories sounds closer for this stock?

1. Generates cash flow

The stock generated 4% or more of the share price (called cash flow yield), and shows moderate 10-15% or more growth.

2. Riding a trend

Think Tesla during the pandemic of 2020 when EVs were riding a cultural high, or Nvidia in the current AI boom, or even Figma. These companies don’t have enough yield, or, enough growth, or both - however - they are riding a trend. They have momentum. These can be more volatile - they don’t have the floor of strong cash flow

Why The Stock Moved


Qualitative Assessment

AI Generated Analysis | Feedback


1. August 2025: Strategic Stock Repurchase Below Threshold
TROOPS, Inc. announced a stock repurchase agreement on July 25, 2025, which finalized on July 24, 2025. The company repurchased 4,400,000 shares at US$0.90 per share, totaling US$3,960,000. This move was intended to enhance shareholder value by reducing outstanding shares and potentially increasing earnings per share. However, as the transaction amount is below the USD 5 million threshold, it is not considered a primary explanatory factor.

2. October 2025: Continued Unprofitability and Valuation Concerns
As of October 19, 2025, TROOPS continued to operate at a loss, despite narrowing its annual losses by an average of 39% over the preceding five years. The company showed no recent evidence of positive net income or an improving profit margin.
