Broken Candy: CuriosityStream

AI Content Licensing Driving Improving Growth

CuriosityStream $CURI is a broken SPAC IPO. This is a streaming company focusing on documentary content. The heritage is based on The Discovery Channel. It's a classic case of early enthusiasm for a "massive opportunity," accompanied by significant spending and substantial losses.

The spending funded a content asset, which is now being monetized through conventional subscriptions, most recently for training AI models to handle video content. The value of the content library, along with $39M in cash, makes up the majority of the current $200M market cap.

The company has cut expenses to achieve a positive cash flow, despite minimal growth, and is now poised for substantive growth following content licensing deals.

Management has delivered the goods in terms of rationalizing operations.

With better growth this year, the P&L will continue to improve, supporting higher stock prices and potentially a re-rating.
