Mega Matrix's FlexTV Acquisition: White Diamond Research Exposes 5th Consecutive Business Failure, Sets 50¢ Price Target
White Diamond Research has released a scathing report on Mega Matrix Corp (MPU), arguing that its recent FlexTV acquisition represents the company's fifth consecutive business failure. The report outlines multiple red flags suggesting MPU's stock is significantly overvalued.
Stock info:
Tickers: MPU (NASDAQ)
Disclosure: White Diamond Research is short MPU
Why it matters:
- MPU acquired a 60% stake in FunVerse (owner of FlexTV) for just $1.125M, yet MPU's market cap exceeds $100M - a stark valuation disconnect
- FlexTV, a short-form drama streaming app, fails to rank in the top 100 entertainment apps despite MPU's claims of top-10 status
- MPU's management has a documented history of four previous failed business ventures across entirely different sectors
- The company incentivizes fake 5-star reviews using virtual coins, demonstrating questionable ethics and desperation
- MPU's fully diluted share count (38.5M) at current prices ($2.50) creates an unjustifiable $20M market cap for an unproven app
- White Diamond Research sets a 50¢ price target, representing 80% downside
State of play:
- FlexTV faces overwhelming competition from established players like TikTok, YouTube, and specialized apps like ReelShort (which generated ~$22M revenue in 2023)
- MPU's management lacks media experience yet promises to invest $100M in content over three years without clear funding sources
- The company's recent $1.50 per share offering suggests further dilution is likely
- "FlexTV" branding fails to convey its short drama focus, creating a marketing disadvantage
- The app's only hit show ("Mr. Williams! Madame is Dying") hasn't generated sufficient traction to sustain growth
