  • Gaming Consoles Part 3: Nintendo - [Business Breakdowns, EP.203]
    Today's episode is the third in our three-part miniseries on video game consoles. Here, we are breaking down Nintendo. Our guest is Ryan O'Connor, the founder of Crossroads Capital. He has a wealth of knowledge about Nintendo, and you will hear it throughout this episode.  We discuss the history of the brand and business, including how it revitalized the industry in the 1980s, some of its strategic decisions, and how the Nintendo Switch is a new economic opportunity for the business. That ties into the console thesis, which we have discussed in the previous two episodes. Please enjoy this Breakdown of Nintendo.

  • Gaming Consoles Part 1: The Thesis - [Business Breakdowns, EP.201]
    Today's episode is the first in a multi-part series on the video game console market. Our guest is Sia Kamalie, the founder and fund manager at Skycatcher. Skycatcher describes itself as focused on capturing asymmetry at the internet frontier, and Sia has very strong conviction that the video game console market is entering a major paradigm shift with an app store model set to hit its inflection point. We start with an overview of the video game console market, laying out its size and current state. In episodes two and three, we explore this theme in even more depth when we cover the names most exposed to it: Sony and Nintendo.  On these episodes, we always recommend doing your own research. We invited Sia on to lay out his thesis, so this one is particularly geared towards that investment opportunity. Please enjoy this Breakdown of the video console market.   For the full show notes, transcript, and links to the best content to learn more, check out the episode page here. ----- This episode is sponsored by Finley - modern debt capital management software for borrowers and lenders.

    This is Zack Fuss. Today, we're breaking down Arm Holdings. Arm designs the architecture powering billions of devices, from smartphones and data centers to IoT devices and automotive systems. In this episode, we'll explore Arm's unique value proposition and how it thrives as a licensing giant in a market dominated by leading-edge manufacturers. To break down Arm, I am joined by Jay Goldberg, who is the CEO and lead analyst at D2D Advisory, a technology and strategy consultancy.

We will also unpack Arm's business history, including its acquisition by SoftBank, its failed takeover by NVIDIA, and its IPO earlier this year. Arm currently sports a $150 billion market cap with sales approaching $5 billion, a rather robust 30x revenue multiple.

  • Kering: It’s Gucci - [Business Breakdowns, EP.199]
    Today, we are breaking down the global luxury group Kering. You know Kering from its brands Gucci, YSL, Bottega Veneta, Balenciaga, and the list goes on. It's a luxury house similar to LVMH, but LVMH over the past five years is up over 40% and Kering is down over 60%. To break down Kering, I am joined by Jonathan Eng, portfolio manager at Causeway. We cover the owners and operators of Kering, the Pinault family. We also discuss wholesale distribution versus retail distribution and brand margin profiles. But Kering's core brand, Gucci, is different from much of what you see in luxury, and we spent a significant amount of time diving into it. What makes Gucci more cyclical than understated luxury? Where do we stand with Gucci today? And how does Jon think about all of this as an investor tapping into his historical context in the space? Please enjoy this breakdown of Kering.
