"Exploring the BPO privatization theme $TASK $TIXT $TTEC BPO privatizations have become a small but growing theme in the market. Majority-shareholder buyouts are emerging across an industry facing significant uncertainty. Meanwhile many of these companies continue to generate strong cash flow. The key idea and likely the reasoning behind these buyouts is that buyers dont see this cash flow drying up anytime soon. If that proves true and AI doesn't decimate these businesses overnight then the bids make a lot of sense. TASK is the latest addition to this trend joining TIXT and TTEC with the"

Tang Capital has been especially active recently picking up a number of these names including $CRGX $KRON $IGMS and $ELEV. Recently $EPIX agreed to a similar type of setup. Some broken biopharmas pivoted into crypto treasury plays like $SONN which was up 10x on that deal. Yes thats the world we live inbut I digress. Not many of these plays remain on the market.

"$CVEO released an IR deck a few days ago. Nothing new mostly a reiteration of the thesis outlined below. Key takeaway for me is that the potential to put the underutilized Canadian assets in play is increasingly likely. Several projects currently under FID are well-suited for these assets see the screenshot from the IR deck. That's about $2030M in potential earnings power on top of the $97M in expected EBITDA by year-end. Of course its not fully clear when this will materialize but the optionality is becoming more valuable in my eyes. Interesting setup over at $CVEO with a highly reputable"

"$ACHC has given back all of its activism-related pop in the stock price. This isnt surprising. The two activists clearly pushed for an immediate sale review while noting that the company had been approached by multiple parties. Yet almost a month of silence from management is quite telling theyre not giving up control easily. For now I dont see a clear path to success. More clarity is needed but if the stock continues to decline it could get cheap enough to make the long game from activists interesting.
