AppLovin's AI-driven ad platform has strong long-term growth drivers, with management guiding for a minimum of high-teens annual revenue growth. An outcome-focused revenue model positions APP well to consistently keep increasing gross margins. And there are powerful operating leverage benefits to drive EBIT margin expansion to 70% in 3 years. I really don't like how management is divesting their apps/gaming business at throwaway valuations. This decision seems hurried, which could signal risk of poor moves in future M&As.
