Pretty steep haircut from their $12b peak in 2022. And that's before you factor in their revenue that's grown 2.5* from ~$312M in 2022. If their figures are to be believed, Capital one is getting an asset growing 50% YoY, for just 7* revenues.

Maybe just pull a Bending Spoons after the acquisition, layoff most of the staff, and bring a lot of ops in-house and they'll be in profit ASAP.

If growth rate was really 50% YoY, their investors would not let them sell for $5 billion.

Not sure what's gonna happen to them of course, but C1 doesn't really layoff the entire team like that. They have a few acquisitions that merge in but often stay as their own business unit and have a fair amount of autonomy.
