According to multiple outlets, Oatly will offer about 84.4 million American depositary shares (ADS) at between $15 and $17 per share.

Working in Malmo, Sweden, they developed a way of processing a slurry of oats and water with enzymes to produce natural sweetness and a milk-like taste and consistency.</p><p>Oatly’s image benefited from a roster of celebrity investors, including Oprah Winfrey, Natalie Portman, Jay-Z’s Roc Nation company, and Howard Schultz, the former chief executive of Starbucks. All have some connection to the plant-based or healthy living movement.</p><p>The majority shareholder is a partnership between an entity owned by the Chinese government and Verlinvest, a Belgian firm that invests some of the wealth of the families that control the Anheuser-Busch InBev beer empire. Blackstone, the giant private equity firm, owns a little less than 8 percent in Oatly.</p><p>The company’s growth went into overdrive after Verlinvest bought a majority stake in 2016 via a joint venture with China Resources, a state-owned conglomerate with vast holdings in cement, power generation, coal mining, beer, retailing and many other industries. The new financing helped Oatly to expand in Europe and begin exporting to the United States and China, where many people cannot tolerate cow’s milk. China Resources’ involvement undoubtedly helped open doors in the Chinese market. Asia, primarily China, accounted for 18 percent of sales in the first quarter of 2021, and is growing at a rate of 450 percent a year, according to Oatly.</p><p>In Europe, there is growing alarm about Chinese investment in strategic industries like autos, batteries and robotics. The European Commission has begun erecting regulatory barriers to companies with financial links to the Chinese government. But so far no one has expressed fear that China will dominate the world’s supply of oat milk.</p><p>Just in case, Oatly’s prospectus gives it the option of listing in Hong Kong if the foreign ownership becomes a problem in the United States.</p><p><b>The Key Markets</b></p><p>Oat milk is part of a larger trend toward food that mimics animal products. So-called food tech companies like Beyond Meat have raised a little more than $18 billion in venture funding, according to PitchBook, which tracks the industry. Plant-based dairy, which in the United States includes brands like Ripple (made from peas) and Mooala (bananas), raised $640 million last year, more than double the amount raised a year earlier.</p><p>According to the Plant Based Foods Association and Good Foods Institute, plant-based-food sales reached $7 billion in 2020.</p><p>Consumer Insights data quoted in the prospectus says the plant-based milk category will grow 20% to 25% over the next three years.</p><p>Oatly is focused on its role in helping to transform the food industry in order to be better for the environment and meet the health needs of its customers. The company points out that substituting a cup of Oatly for a cup of cow’s milk reduces greenhouse gas emissions, land use and energy consumption.</p><p>Tastewise, which provides food and beverage data and intelligence, said in a December 2020 report that “plant-based everything” will be one of the top 10 U.S. trends for this year.</p><p>Oatly’s key markets are Sweden, Germany and the U.K., though its products were available in 60,000 retail stores and 32,200 coffee shops around the world as of December 31, 2020. Among the places where customers can find Oatly is Starbucks, where demand was so high there was a shortage soon after the coffee chain introduced beverages made with the item.</p><p>Oatly arrived in the U.S. in 2017. The company says it “focused on targeting coffee’s tastemakers, professional baristas at independent coffee shops” as a way to enter the market.”</p><p>By December 31, 2020, Oatly was in more than 7,500 retail shops and 10,000 coffee shops in the U.S. Revenue in 2020 totaled $100 million in the U.S.</p><p>Oatly can also be found in 11,000 coffee and tea shops in China, and at more than 6,000 retail and specialty shops across the country, including thousands of Starbucks locations.</p><p><b>Loss of Warning</b></p><p>In 2020, Oatly had revenue of $421.4 million, up from $204.0 million the year before. However, the company reported a loss of $60.4 million “reflecting our continued investment in production, brand awareness, new markets and product development,” the prospectus said.</p><p>Oatly is classified as an “emerging growth company,” which means it does not have to make the same disclosures required of bigger public companies. A business remains an emerging growth company until it reaches a number of milestones, including annual revenue of more than $1.07 billion.</p><p>Oatly warns that it has reported losses over the last “several” years and expects operating and capital expenses to rise “substantially.”</p><p>“Our expansion efforts may take longer or prove more expensive than we anticipate, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, and we may not succeed in increasing our revenue and margins sufficiently to offset the anticipated higher expenses,” the company said in its prospectus.</p><p>“We incur significant expenses in researching and developing our innovative products, building out our production and manufacturing facilities, obtaining and storing ingredients and other products and marketing the products we offer.”</p><p><b>The dairy market is highly competitive</b></p><p>Oatly acknowledged in its offering documents that it faces fierce competition, including from “multinational corporations with substantially greater resources and operations than us.”</p><p>That would include British consumer goods maker Unilever, which said last year that it aims to generate revenue of one billion euros, or $1.2 billion, by 2027 from plant-based substitutes for meat and dairy, for example Hellmann’s vegan mayonnaise or Ben &amp; Jerry’s dairy-free ice cream. Unilever has not announced plans for a milk substitute.</p><p>Some industry analysts argue that Oatly’s size gives it an edge over these giants, allowing it to be more innovative than a corporate behemoth. Food start-ups are “younger and faster,” said Patrick Müller-Sarmiento, head of the consumer goods and retail practice at Roland Berger, a German consulting firm.</p><p>The established food giants also have a tougher time than newcomers convincing consumers that they are sincere about saving the planet, an important part of the oat milk sales pitch.</p><p>Mr. Müller-Sarmiento, the former chief executive of Real, a German chain of big box stores, said meat and dairy alternatives are not having trouble competing with Big Food for precious retail shelf space. “Retailers are urgently looking for new products,” he said.</p><p>Time was when Nestlé or Unilever would have simply acquired Oatly, just as they have gobbled up hundreds of other brands. But they would have trouble justifying the audacious $10 billion price that Oatly has set as the benchmark for its stock offering.</p><p>Nestlé’s answer was to develop its own milk substitute, Wunda, which the company unveiled this month and plans to sell initially in France, Portugal and the Netherlands. Made from a variety of yellow peas, Wunda is higher in protein than oat milk. Some nutritionists have said that oat milk and other dairy alternatives are a poor substitute for cow’s milk because they don’t have nearly as much protein.</p><p>Stefan Palzer, the chief technology officer at Nestlé, took issue with those who say a big company can’t move as fast as a bunch of Swedish foodies. A young team at Nestlé developed Wunda in nine months, including three months of market testing in Britain, Mr. Palzer said in an interview.</p><p>Nestlé was able to adapt existing production facilities to make Wunda, rather than building new factories like Oatly must do. The company already had plant scientists who could identify the best kind of pea and food safety experts who could navigate the regulatory approval process, Mr. Palzer said.</p><p>The Wunda developers “could have any expert they wanted to have on the project,” Mr. Palzer said. “That enabled them to move at this speed.”</p><p>Nestlé already has dairy-free versions of Nesquik drinks and Häagen-Dazs ice cream and sells coffee creamers made from a blend of oat and almond milk using the Starbucks brand. The company is in a major push to develop substitutes for almost any kind of animal product. The next frontier: fish. Nestlé has begun selling a tuna substitute called Vuna and is working on scallops.</p><p>“It’s a great opportunity to combine health with sustainability,” Mr. Palzer said of plant-based alternatives to milk and meat. “It’s also a great growth opportunity.”</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Oat Milk Company Oatly to IPO -- Here's What Investors Need to Know</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nOat Milk Company Oatly to IPO -- Here's What Investors Need to Know\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<a class=\"head\" href=\"https://laohu8.com/wemedia/1079075236\">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Tiger Newspress </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2021-05-19 14:07</p>\n</div>\n\n</a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<p>The largest oat milk company in the world, Oatly, could be going public this weekon Thursday.</p><p>The Swedish firm is know for its dairy-alternative products made from oats.

The items range from basic oat milk, to even ice cream and yogurt made from oat milk. According to its website, Oatly’s goal is “to make it easy for people to turn what they eat and drink into personal moments of healthy joy without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources in the process.”Oatly confidentially filed for its IPO back in February, then officiallyset terms of the move last week. According to multiple outlets, Oatly will offer about 84.4 million American depositary shares (ADS) at between $15 and $17 per share. In total, the Oatly IPO could reach a $10.1 billion valuation, and the firm hopes to raise $1.1 billion.Additionally, Oatly plans to trade on the Nasdaq exchange under the ticker “OTLY” and had nine lead underwriters for its IPO.The majority shareholderOatly was founded in 1994 by Rickard Oste, a professor of food chemistry and nutrition in Sweden, and his brother Bjorn Oste. Working in Malmo, Sweden, they developed a way of processing a slurry of oats and water with enzymes to produce natural sweetness and a milk-like taste and consistency.Oatly’s image benefited from a roster of celebrity investors, including Oprah Winfrey, Natalie Portman, Jay-Z’s Roc Nation company, and Howard Schultz, the former chief executive of Starbucks. All have some connection to the plant-based or healthy living movement.The majority shareholder is a partnership between an entity owned by the Chinese government and Verlinvest, a Belgian firm that invests some of the wealth of the families that control the Anheuser-Busch InBev beer empire. Blackstone, the giant private equity firm, owns a little less than 8 percent in Oatly.The company’s growth went into overdrive after Verlinvest bought a majority stake in 2016 via a joint venture with China Resources, a state-owned conglomerate with vast holdings in cement, power generation, coal mining, beer, retailing and many other industries. The new financing helped Oatly to expand in Europe and begin exporting to the United States and China, where many people cannot tolerate cow’s milk. China Resources’ involvement undoubtedly helped open doors in the Chinese market. Asia, primarily China, accounted for 18 percent of sales in the first quarter of 2021, and is growing at a rate of 450 percent a year, according to Oatly.In Europe, there is growing alarm about Chinese investment in strategic industries like autos, batteries and robotics. The European Commission has begun erecting regulatory barriers to companies with financial links to the Chinese government. But so far no one has expressed fear that China will dominate the world’s supply of oat milk.Just in case, Oatly’s prospectus gives it the option of listing in Hong Kong if the foreign ownership becomes a problem in the United States.The Key MarketsOat milk is part of a larger trend toward food that mimics animal products. So-called food tech companies like Beyond Meat have raised a little more than $18 billion in venture funding, according to PitchBook, which tracks the industry. Plant-based dairy, which in the United States includes brands like Ripple (made from peas) and Mooala (bananas), raised $640 million last year, more than double the amount raised a year earlier.According to the Plant Based Foods Association and Good Foods Institute, plant-based-food sales reached $7 billion in 2020.Consumer Insights data quoted in the prospectus says the plant-based milk category will grow 20% to 25% over the next three years.Oatly is focused on its role in helping to transform the food industry in order to be better for the environment and meet the health needs of its customers. The company points out that substituting a cup of Oatly for a cup of cow’s milk reduces greenhouse gas emissions, land use and energy consumption.Tastewise, which provides food and beverage data and intelligence, said in a December 2020 report that “plant-based everything” will be one of the top 10 U.S. trends for this year.Oatly’s key markets are Sweden, Germany and the U.K., though its products were available in 60,000 retail stores and 32,200 coffee shops around the world as of December 31, 2020.

Lockdowns have mostly ended, and people are cautiously getting out again. The pandemic exposed some gaps in the company's model, and it restructured accordingly. Can Coca-Cola keep up the gains?</p><p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F622111%2Fa-group-of-friends-drinking-cola-together.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><h2>A return to growth</h2><p>Coca-Cola was showing momentum before the pandemic, with a 16% sales increase in 2019's fourth quarter after years of slower growth. But after a 28% sales drop in the 2020 second quarter and struggles throughout the pandemic, the company ended the year with an improved 11% sales decline for the full fiscal year. Coke maintained a strong balance sheet throughout the declines, continuing to pay a dividend.</p><p>2021 first-quarter revenue grew 5%, fueled by a return for the takeaway segment, which also grew 5%. Earnings per share decreased 19%, but both numbers beat expectations. The recovery was so strong in the first quarter that March 2021 sales matched March 2019 sales.</p><p>However, with lockdowns still strong in other parts of the world, it's not clear that Coke's recovery will continue its upward trajectory. Despite the earnings beat, the company maintained its 2021 outlook of high-single-digit organic revenue growth.</p><h2>Facing a new set of challenges</h2><p>The company made some major changes to manage in the new operating environment. It restructured its units for a more centralized system to clear out inefficiencies, cut costs, and create a more targeted marketing strategy, and it laid off thousands of workers in the process. It also reduced its vast range of brands from 400 to 200, cutting out mostly local-centric brands that had low volume.&nbsp;At the same time, it launched several new brands that are more scalable, to fit its new strategy.</p><p>These moves strengthened the company overall and allowed it to leverage its at-home business while restaurants and other away-from-home locations were closed, but concentrate sales remain a large part of the overall business. Competitor <b>PepsiCo</b> (NASDAQ:PEP), whose beverage segment is not as large as Coca-Cola's, weathered the pandemic better due to its more varied product range, which includes the Quaker breakfast brand and the Frito-Lay snack brand. Both of those were popular under lockdown, hedging total sales declines.</p><p>In the first quarter, even without those segments, Coke came close to matching PepsiCo's 6.8% revenue increase.

Lockdowns have mostly ended, and people are cautiously getting out again. The pandemic exposed some gaps in the company's model, and it restructured accordingly. Can Coca-Cola keep up the gains?Image source: Getty Images.A return to growthCoca-Cola was showing momentum before the pandemic, with a 16% sales increase in 2019's fourth quarter after years of slower growth. But after a 28% sales drop in the 2020 second quarter and struggles throughout the pandemic, the company ended the year with an improved 11% sales decline for the full fiscal year. Coke maintained a strong balance sheet throughout the declines, continuing to pay a dividend.2021 first-quarter revenue grew 5%, fueled by a return for the takeaway segment, which also grew 5%. Earnings per share decreased 19%, but both numbers beat expectations. The recovery was so strong in the first quarter that March 2021 sales matched March 2019 sales.However, with lockdowns still strong in other parts of the world, it's not clear that Coke's recovery will continue its upward trajectory. Despite the earnings beat, the company maintained its 2021 outlook of high-single-digit organic revenue growth.Facing a new set of challengesThe company made some major changes to manage in the new operating environment. It restructured its units for a more centralized system to clear out inefficiencies, cut costs, and create a more targeted marketing strategy, and it laid off thousands of workers in the process. It also reduced its vast range of brands from 400 to 200, cutting out mostly local-centric brands that had low volume. At the same time, it launched several new brands that are more scalable, to fit its new strategy.These moves strengthened the company overall and allowed it to leverage its at-home business while restaurants and other away-from-home locations were closed, but concentrate sales remain a large part of the overall business. Competitor PepsiCo (NASDAQ:PEP), whose beverage segment is not as large as Coca-Cola's, weathered the pandemic better due to its more varied product range, which includes the Quaker breakfast brand and the Frito-Lay snack brand. Both of those were popular under lockdown, hedging total sales declines.In the first quarter, even without those segments, Coke came close to matching PepsiCo's 6.8% revenue increase. That means Coke is in pretty good shape at this point, even with some lockdowns remaining in place. It also demonstrates that under unexpected and difficult circumstances, the company can pivot to operate in an uncertain environment.In the near term, Coke's prospects seem to be tied to global vaccine rollouts. But in the long term, the company is well positioned to expand margins and increase sales.Stocks and dividendsCoca-Cola is valued for its dividend, which yields 3.1% at the current price. The company has raised its dividend for 57 consecutive years, making it a Dividend King. It's committed to the dividend and has continued to pay it, and raise it as well, during the pandemic. The stock itself hasn't been so valuable over the past five years, gaining 16%.Coke is a great company with strong management and an unbeatable brand name. The pandemic struggle may not be completely over, but investors can expect a solid recovery when it is.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":409,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":378862512,"gmtCreate":1619016300736,"gmtModify":1704718392393,"author":{"id":"3581757014858199","authorId":"3581757014858199","name":"HighOnCoffee","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/712f5ae709a47658c3b8b2ed5c5af556","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581757014858199","authorIdStr":"3581757014858199"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"oversold?","listText":"oversold?","text":"oversold?","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d5fcd11defaabb31338f3157fcf217fd","width":"1080","height":"1890"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/378862512","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":438,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":378868653,"gmtCreate":1619016189272,"gmtModify":1704718388476,"author":{"id":"3581757014858199","authorId":"3581757014858199","name":"HighOnCoffee","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/712f5ae709a47658c3b8b2ed5c5af556","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581757014858199","authorIdStr":"3581757014858199"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"long long long","listText":"long long long","text":"long long long","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ec440a9e26a382037d2a961014e833b3","width":"1080","height":"1890"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/378868653","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":390,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":371368384,"gmtCreate":1618912281448,"gmtModify":1704716749554,"author":{"id":"3581757014858199","authorId":"3581757014858199","name":"HighOnCoffee","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/712f5ae709a47658c3b8b2ed5c5af556","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581757014858199","authorIdStr":"3581757014858199"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"they cant ):","listText":"they cant ):","text":"they cant ):","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/371368384","repostId":"2128894282","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2128894282","pubTimestamp":1618909004,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2128894282?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-20 16:56","market":"us","language":"en","title":"How Apple Can Afford to Pay Twice as Much as Spotify for Music Streaming","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2128894282","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"There are some big differences between Apple Music and Spotify that investors need to consider.","content":"<p><b>Apple</b> (NASDAQ:AAPL) recently gave itself a pat on the back when it wrote a letter to recording artists noting it pays a penny per stream on its Apple Music service.

That difference in strategy has a big effect on the rates each service pays to artists and the percentage of revenue those royalties account for.</p>\n<p>Spotify has long held up its free ad-supported tier as an important driver of paid subscriptions in the long run. In fact, Spotify contends that offering a free tier prevents listeners from seeking \"non-revenue-generating alternatives,\" which you might just call \"piracy.\"</p>\n<p>But there's a drawback to offering a free tier -- less revenue per listener. As of the end of 2020, Spotify had 199 million free listeners and 155 million paid subscribers. But ad-supported revenue in the seasonally strong fourth quarter totaled just 281 million euros versus 1.89 billion euros for the paid subscribers.</p>\n<p>Importantly, when Spotify pays a royalty for a listener on its ad-supported tier, it pays it out of the ad-supported revenue. And with 199 million listeners, even if they're less engaged on average than paid listeners, that's going to drag down its average payout per stream.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, Spotify's contracts with record labels typically include guaranteed minimums, which means it may have to pay additional royalties if it doesn't generate enough engagement with the service. That could push the percentage of revenue it pays higher on average than its paid tier, where revenue is much more predictable.</p>\n<h2><b>Apple doesn't need a free tier</b></h2>\n<p>Apple's biggest advantage over Spotify is that it owns the distribution platform. While it's possible to use Apple Music on devices not made by Apple, it's much more common among iPhone owners. And every iPhone comes with Apple Music pre-installed. It's the default music app. Even if you want to listen to music you've already downloaded, you'll use the Apple Music app by default on an iPhone.</p>\n<p>That presents a big opportunity for Apple to onboard new subscribers. No need to tempt them with a free ad-supported service. No free tier means Apple's average revenue per user is higher than Spotify's.</p>\n<p>What's more, Apple's paid users may not be as engaged as Spotify's paid users. If a Spotify user doesn't use the service as much, they may not mind the occasional ad while listening. As a result, Apple generates more revenue per stream, and it pays out more per stream.</p>\n<h2><b>What it all means for investors</b></h2>\n<p>For Apple investors, the important number to pay attention to isn't that it pays more per stream than Spotify. It's that it manages to pay out only half of revenue as royalties. A lower cost of sales, combined with Apple's position as a platform owner, allows it to bundle Apple Music without using it as a loss leader.</p>\n<p>Indeed, Apple Music is at the core of Apple's Apple One bundle, which includes all the various subscription services the company introduced over the last half decade or so. That allows Apple to profitably bolster its other services while increasing customer engagement with its services and retaining them as iPhone and Mac users year after year.</p>\n<p>For Spotify investors, Apple's relatively low royalty rate is also important. It indicates there's a lot of room for improvement in the company's premium gross margin, which came in at 28.9% in the fourth quarter. There's a big gap between that and the 48% Apple keeps after paying royalties, which accounts for the bulk of cost of sales. Spotify keeps its contracts with record labels short, so it frequently has an opportunity to renegotiate and improve its margins.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Spotify's investing heavily in podcasts, both as a means to attract new users and to improve its margin for its ad-supported business. If Spotify can bring its ad-supported tier to break-even and raise the margin on its premium tier, it could become tremendously profitable given the scale the tech company's already achieved.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>How Apple Can Afford to Pay Twice as Much as Spotify for Music Streaming</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nHow Apple Can Afford to Pay Twice as Much as Spotify for Music Streaming\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-20 16:56 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/04/19/how-apple-can-afford-to-pay-twice-as-much-as-spoti/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) recently gave itself a pat on the back when it wrote a letter to recording artists noting it pays a penny per stream on its Apple Music service.

Andersen prides himself on \"fierce independence\" in stock selection that results in a macro-agnostic portfolio. Some of his recent investments have been in cybersecurity, data storage, and pet care.</p>\n<p>In the year to date, however, one of Andersen's top picks, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TRUP\">Trupanion</a> Inc.

Can you imagine when we get the all-clear and start moving back toward normalcy?\"\nBut three months into the year, Andersen is glum. In an interview last week, he talked about the way big segments of the market seem to be in favor one day, out the next. \"We toggle between value and growth, stay-at-home and re-opening, almost daily,\" he said. \"I don't know who is driving this, but it must be following some kind of algorithm.\"\nAndersen is trying to be patient, recognizing that the economy is at a once-in-a-generation inflection point and that everyone is operating in unprecedented conditions. Still, he said, the financial markets sometimes feel like a house of cards.\n\"It's confounding,\" he said. \"The market is fragile, and surprisingly so. This whole year for me has been really challenging to try to figure out is there any momentum, what direction is it going in and what's responsible for it.\"\nAs if the horrors of the global coronavirus pandemic weren't enough of a curveball, the past 12 months have thrown up a slew of other headwinds against smooth market sailing. There's the surge of retail traders bent on using the stock market as a gambling casino , and a national politics so bitter that the presidential election turned bloody.\nAnd that's not even counting the more existential questions: what's the right level for a stock market that plunged 33% in about two weeks just a year ago? How much of that gain comes down to policy stimulus and how much is real? How much of the expected economic rebound is already priced in? What happens if the vaccine promise falls short? What if this is as good as it gets?\nTaken together, it leaves people who manage money, their clients, and the companies that advise them, just as befuddled as Andersen, with almost as many perceived red flags as there are theories as to what's causing it all.\n\"The most common observation we get from clients is that markets don't \"feel right\", and we absolutely get that,\" wrote Nicholas Colas, co-founder of DataTrek Research, in a recent note. \"For us, a big piece of this unease comes from the novelty of seeing capital markets go from distress to euphoria in such a short period of time.\"\nMarket observers point to all manner of weird quirks that seem to confirm something is askew. Among other things, trading volumes have plunged to start 2021.\n\nTo be sure, the elevated volumes in 2020 were just that -- an outlier. But by some estimates, inexperienced amateur traders now make up as much as 20% of all volume in the markets. And even if all of them aren't out gunning for short-sellers, they still have very different priorities and incentives than much of the rest of the market.\nAlso unsettling was the spike U.S. Treasury yields in only a few weeks in the first quarter this year, spooking stock-market investors, followed by several weeks of Federal Reserve policymakers reassuring markets that any interest rate rises wouldn't start until 2023 and would be telegraphed well in advance. Strangely then, rosy economic data seemingly caused bond yields to plunge in mid-April.\n\"Other weird stuff is going on,\" mused Evercore ISI's Dennis DeBusschere, in a note attempting to explain the government-bond rally. \"SPAC's and Solar are getting hit hard on a relative basis, which is odd given the move lower in 10 year yields. Some are citing that the retail investor-sponsored names are getting hit in general as they move away from the market. And why are homebuilders underperforming with 10 year yields collapsing?\"\nDave Nadig is a long-time student of market structure, including as one of the first developers of exchange-traded funds to help markets avoid another blow-up like 1987's Black Monday.\nNadig thinks markets are healthy -- that is, working efficiently and staying resilient, even through hiccups like the meme-stock rampage in the past couple of months and the Archegos family office blow-up. What's become \"very fragile,\" in his words, is price discovery.\n\"There are some fundamental underpinnings of how markets work that are dissolving,\" he said in an interview. \"What we're realizing is that there's a lot more noise and randomness in the market than people are willing to admit. Mostly what's changed is information flow and data moving faster and faster. Any model you build today by definition fails to take into account an acceleration tomorrow.\"\nTake the Gamestop Corp. $(GME)$frenzy that erupted in January . After a group of disgruntled traders spent several weeks targeting short sellers by driving the price of that stock higher, \"It's no longer a normal stock -- it's an externality in the market that has ripple effects some investors may not even be aware of,\" Nadig said.\nOlder investing models -- and algorithms -- are bumping up against new ones that take into account new conditions, a process Nadig calls \"an arms race,\" and one that's accelerated because of the modern speed of information flow and reaction functions.\n\"We're starting to see cracks in the traditional ways we've always analyzed markets,\" he said. \"We're no longer processing reality, we're processing information, and it gets priced in instantaneously. We've given up on analyzing.\"\nThat means that a headline, say, about a pause in the use of Johnson & Johnson's COVID-19 vaccine shares trade lower, Nadig said. It means that for that day, the entire \"re-opening\" trade -- and by extension, some cyclical trades and some value plays -- suffers.\nFor Peter Andersen, who's managed money for nearly three decades and returned more than 40% for his clients in each of the the past two years, the market's fragility is frustrating.

The items range from basic oat milk, to even ice cream and yogurt made from oat milk. According to its website, Oatly’s goal is “to make it easy for people to turn what they eat and drink into personal moments of healthy joy without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources in the process.”</p><p>Oatly confidentially filed for its IPO back in February, then officiallyset terms of the move last week. According to multiple outlets, Oatly will offer about 84.4 million American depositary shares (ADS) at between $15 and $17 per share. In total, the Oatly IPO could reach a $10.1 billion valuation, and the firm hopes to raise $1.1 billion.</p><p>Additionally, Oatly plans to trade on the Nasdaq exchange under the ticker “OTLY” and had nine lead underwriters for its IPO.</p><p><b>The majority shareholder</b></p><p>Oatly was founded in 1994 by Rickard Oste, a professor of food chemistry and nutrition in Sweden, and his brother Bjorn Oste. Working in Malmo, Sweden, they developed a way of processing a slurry of oats and water with enzymes to produce natural sweetness and a milk-like taste and consistency.</p><p>Oatly’s image benefited from a roster of celebrity investors, including Oprah Winfrey, Natalie Portman, Jay-Z’s Roc Nation company, and Howard Schultz, the former chief executive of Starbucks. All have some connection to the plant-based or healthy living movement.</p><p>The majority shareholder is a partnership between an entity owned by the Chinese government and Verlinvest, a Belgian firm that invests some of the wealth of the families that control the Anheuser-Busch InBev beer empire. Blackstone, the giant private equity firm, owns a little less than 8 percent in Oatly.</p><p>The company’s growth went into overdrive after Verlinvest bought a majority stake in 2016 via a joint venture with China Resources, a state-owned conglomerate with vast holdings in cement, power generation, coal mining, beer, retailing and many other industries. The new financing helped Oatly to expand in Europe and begin exporting to the United States and China, where many people cannot tolerate cow’s milk. China Resources’ involvement undoubtedly helped open doors in the Chinese market. Asia, primarily China, accounted for 18 percent of sales in the first quarter of 2021, and is growing at a rate of 450 percent a year, according to Oatly.</p><p>In Europe, there is growing alarm about Chinese investment in strategic industries like autos, batteries and robotics. The European Commission has begun erecting regulatory barriers to companies with financial links to the Chinese government. But so far no one has expressed fear that China will dominate the world’s supply of oat milk.</p><p>Just in case, Oatly’s prospectus gives it the option of listing in Hong Kong if the foreign ownership becomes a problem in the United States.</p><p><b>The Key Markets</b></p><p>Oat milk is part of a larger trend toward food that mimics animal products. So-called food tech companies like Beyond Meat have raised a little more than $18 billion in venture funding, according to PitchBook, which tracks the industry. Plant-based dairy, which in the United States includes brands like Ripple (made from peas) and Mooala (bananas), raised $640 million last year, more than double the amount raised a year earlier.</p><p>According to the Plant Based Foods Association and Good Foods Institute, plant-based-food sales reached $7 billion in 2020.</p><p>Consumer Insights data quoted in the prospectus says the plant-based milk category will grow 20% to 25% over the next three years.</p><p>Oatly is focused on its role in helping to transform the food industry in order to be better for the environment and meet the health needs of its customers.

The items range from basic oat milk, to even ice cream and yogurt made from oat milk. According to its website, Oatly’s goal is “to make it easy for people to turn what they eat and drink into personal moments of healthy joy without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources in the process.”</p><p>Oatly confidentially filed for its IPO back in February, then officiallyset terms of the move last week. According to multiple outlets, Oatly will offer about 84.4 million American depositary shares (ADS) at between $15 and $17 per share. In total, the Oatly IPO could reach a $10.1 billion valuation, and the firm hopes to raise $1.1 billion.</p><p>Additionally, Oatly plans to trade on the Nasdaq exchange under the ticker “OTLY” and had nine lead underwriters for its IPO.</p><p><b>The majority shareholder</b></p><p>Oatly was founded in 1994 by Rickard Oste, a professor of food chemistry and nutrition in Sweden, and his brother Bjorn Oste. Working in Malmo, Sweden, they developed a way of processing a slurry of oats and water with enzymes to produce natural sweetness and a milk-like taste and consistency.</p><p>Oatly’s image benefited from a roster of celebrity investors, including Oprah Winfrey, Natalie Portman, Jay-Z’s Roc Nation company, and Howard Schultz, the former chief executive of Starbucks. All have some connection to the plant-based or healthy living movement.</p><p>The majority shareholder is a partnership between an entity owned by the Chinese government and Verlinvest, a Belgian firm that invests some of the wealth of the families that control the Anheuser-Busch InBev beer empire. Blackstone, the giant private equity firm, owns a little less than 8 percent in Oatly.</p><p>The company’s growth went into overdrive after Verlinvest bought a majority stake in 2016 via a joint venture with China Resources, a state-owned conglomerate with vast holdings in cement, power generation, coal mining, beer, retailing and many other industries. The new financing helped Oatly to expand in Europe and begin exporting to the United States and China, where many people cannot tolerate cow’s milk. China Resources’ involvement undoubtedly helped open doors in the Chinese market. Asia, primarily China, accounted for 18 percent of sales in the first quarter of 2021, and is growing at a rate of 450 percent a year, according to Oatly.</p><p>In Europe, there is growing alarm about Chinese investment in strategic industries like autos, batteries and robotics. The European Commission has begun erecting regulatory barriers to companies with financial links to the Chinese government. But so far no one has expressed fear that China will dominate the world’s supply of oat milk.</p><p>Just in case, Oatly’s prospectus gives it the option of listing in Hong Kong if the foreign ownership becomes a problem in the United States.</p><p><b>The Key Markets</b></p><p>Oat milk is part of a larger trend toward food that mimics animal products. So-called food tech companies like Beyond Meat have raised a little more than $18 billion in venture funding, according to PitchBook, which tracks the industry. Plant-based dairy, which in the United States includes brands like Ripple (made from peas) and Mooala (bananas), raised $640 million last year, more than double the amount raised a year earlier.</p><p>According to the Plant Based Foods Association and Good Foods Institute, plant-based-food sales reached $7 billion in 2020.</p><p>Consumer Insights data quoted in the prospectus says the plant-based milk category will grow 20% to 25% over the next three years.</p><p>Oatly is focused on its role in helping to transform the food industry in order to be better for the environment and meet the health needs of its customers.

Nestlé has begun selling a tuna substitute called Vuna and is working on scallops.“It’s a great opportunity to combine health with sustainability,” Mr. Palzer said of plant-based alternatives to milk and meat. “It’s also a great growth opportunity.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":518,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":194745663,"gmtCreate":1621405261952,"gmtModify":1704357095576,"author":{"id":"3581757014858199","authorId":"3581757014858199","name":"HighOnCoffee","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/712f5ae709a47658c3b8b2ed5c5af556","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581757014858199","authorIdStr":"3581757014858199"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"lies","listText":"lies","text":"lies","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/194745663","repostId":"2136891807","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":480,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":372368508,"gmtCreate":1619179643304,"gmtModify":1704720843131,"author":{"id":"3581757014858199","authorId":"3581757014858199","name":"HighOnCoffee","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/712f5ae709a47658c3b8b2ed5c5af556","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581757014858199","authorIdStr":"3581757014858199"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"extremely long these stocks, like to agree :)&nbsp;","listText":"extremely long these stocks, like to agree :)&nbsp;","text":"extremely long these stocks, like to agree :)","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/372368508","repostId":"1169789705","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":333,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":193744521,"gmtCreate":1620824457963,"gmtModify":1704348934724,"author":{"id":"3581757014858199","authorId":"3581757014858199","name":"HighOnCoffee","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/712f5ae709a47658c3b8b2ed5c5af556","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581757014858199","authorIdStr":"3581757014858199"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"gg","listText":"gg","text":"gg","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/193744521","repostId":"1147827592","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":264,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":371368017,"gmtCreate":1618912237139,"gmtModify":1704716749231,"author":{"id":"3581757014858199","authorId":"3581757014858199","name":"HighOnCoffee","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/712f5ae709a47658c3b8b2ed5c5af556","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581757014858199","authorIdStr":"3581757014858199"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"when retail hypes this... it might not be a good idea","listText":"when retail hypes this... it might not be a good idea","text":"when retail hypes this... it might not be a good idea","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/371368017","repostId":"2128817721","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2128817721","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1618909201,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2128817721?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-20 17:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"7 Stocks To Watch For April 20, 2021","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2128817721","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Some of the stocks that may grab investor focus today are:","content":"<p>Some of the stocks that may grab investor focus today are:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Wall Street expects <b> Procter &amp; Gamble Co</b> (NYSE:PG) to report quarterly earnings at $1.19 per share on revenue of $17.92 billion before the opening bell.

Interest rates could keep rising even without higher inflation because 10-year Treasury yields remain below expected inflation rates. Bigger yields on Treasury debt would make bonds more appealing relative to stocks, weighing on valuations. That doesn’t mean investors shouldn’t buy stocks, but it might make sense to do it later, rather than sooner.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":254,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":373898715,"gmtCreate":1618837203337,"gmtModify":1704715592478,"author":{"id":"3581757014858199","authorId":"3581757014858199","name":"HighOnCoffee","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/712f5ae709a47658c3b8b2ed5c5af556","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581757014858199","authorIdStr":"3581757014858199"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"wowow","listText":"wowow","text":"wowow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/373898715","repostId":"2128525488","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2128525488","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1618802400,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2128525488?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-19 11:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Stocks are at all-time highs and the U.S. economy is booming.

The ubiquitous coffeehouse chain is up 105% since April 2016, while the warehouse club operator has soared 147% during the same time.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>That said, the historical success of these large-cap stocks&nbsp;does not necessarily guarantee satisfactory returns going forward. Investors need to weigh the merits of each today to come up with their own conclusions.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Let's find out which stock is the better buy.&nbsp;</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d809e54e32a6274b36ebe37521180fea\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"554\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>The case for Costco&nbsp;</h2>\n<p>Investor worries about a slowdown for the giant warehouse retailer following a reopening of economies have been overblown. For the month of March, adjusted comparable sales (excluding the impacts from changes in gasoline prices and foreign exchange) rose 11.1%, with e-commerce revenue increasing at an impressive 54.5%.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Although these March figures showed a slight deceleration from&nbsp;January and February,&nbsp;they clearly demonstrate the strength of Costco's business. For example, in the most recent quarter,&nbsp;the home furnishings, toys, and consumer electronics categories were some of the better performers.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Compare this to the spring of last year when people stocked&nbsp;up on toilet paper, paper towels, and cleaning supplies. It's obvious that Costco's massive selection of goods can satisfy customer demands at any particular time.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Costco still sports a very healthy membership renewal&nbsp;rate (91% in the U.S. and Canada in the second quarter of 2021), a positive sign given that essentially all of the company's profits come from membership fees. Furthermore, enticing investors is a dividend that has grown at a compound annual growth rate&nbsp;of 13% per year since 2004.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>While Costco did not open any new&nbsp;locations in the most recent quarter, it did open eight net new stores in the previous quarter. And management has stated that it plans to open 13 stores during the rest of the year. For a company this size (808 stores and $163.2 billion in sales in the last fiscal year), this kind of growth is very encouraging.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Investors can still ride a solid wave of growth if they&nbsp;purchase shares of Costco&nbsp;today.&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>The case for Starbucks&nbsp;</h2>\n<p>Starbucks has come roaring back since the depths of the pandemic (in the third quarter of 2020) when global comparable sales dipped 40%. In the most recent quarter (ended Dec. 27, 2020), global comparable sales were down&nbsp;only 5%. What's more, management thinks this figure will&nbsp;expand an impressive 18% to 23% for the full fiscal 2021.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>The coffee retailing behemoth was definitely affected by the pandemic as its customers spent most of 2020 working from home, which resulted in less time commuting to the office and stopping to pick up caffeinated beverages. But by leaning heavily on its digital prowess (and 21.8 million rewards members in the U.S.), the business was still able to serve its customers. Whether it was delivery, curbside pick-up, or the extremely popular drive-thru option, Starbucks found a way to grow the average ticket size as larger group orders became the norm.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Starbucks' brand is second to none.

The ubiquitous coffeehouse chain is up 105% since April 2016, while the warehouse club operator has soared 147% during the same time. \nThat said, the historical success of these large-cap stocks does not necessarily guarantee satisfactory returns going forward. Investors need to weigh the merits of each today to come up with their own conclusions. \nLet's find out which stock is the better buy. \nImage source: Getty Images.\nThe case for Costco \nInvestor worries about a slowdown for the giant warehouse retailer following a reopening of economies have been overblown. For the month of March, adjusted comparable sales (excluding the impacts from changes in gasoline prices and foreign exchange) rose 11.1%, with e-commerce revenue increasing at an impressive 54.5%. \nAlthough these March figures showed a slight deceleration from January and February, they clearly demonstrate the strength of Costco's business. For example, in the most recent quarter, the home furnishings, toys, and consumer electronics categories were some of the better performers. \nCompare this to the spring of last year when people stocked up on toilet paper, paper towels, and cleaning supplies. It's obvious that Costco's massive selection of goods can satisfy customer demands at any particular time. \nCostco still sports a very healthy membership renewal rate (91% in the U.S. and Canada in the second quarter of 2021), a positive sign given that essentially all of the company's profits come from membership fees. Furthermore, enticing investors is a dividend that has grown at a compound annual growth rate of 13% per year since 2004. \nWhile Costco did not open any new locations in the most recent quarter, it did open eight net new stores in the previous quarter. And management has stated that it plans to open 13 stores during the rest of the year. For a company this size (808 stores and $163.2 billion in sales in the last fiscal year), this kind of growth is very encouraging. \nInvestors can still ride a solid wave of growth if they purchase shares of Costco today. \nThe case for Starbucks \nStarbucks has come roaring back since the depths of the pandemic (in the third quarter of 2020) when global comparable sales dipped 40%. In the most recent quarter (ended Dec. 27, 2020), global comparable sales were down only 5%. What's more, management thinks this figure will expand an impressive 18% to 23% for the full fiscal 2021. \nThe coffee retailing behemoth was definitely affected by the pandemic as its customers spent most of 2020 working from home, which resulted in less time commuting to the office and stopping to pick up caffeinated beverages. But by leaning heavily on its digital prowess (and 21.8 million rewards members in the U.S.), the business was still able to serve its customers. Whether it was delivery, curbside pick-up, or the extremely popular drive-thru option, Starbucks found a way to grow the average ticket size as larger group orders became the norm. \nStarbucks' brand is second to none. There are currently nearly 33,000 locations worldwide, but management thinks that in the next decade, this number will hit 55,000. For investors thinking there's no way the business can keep opening new stores, this is some delightful news. \nMost of the growth will come from China, where Starbucks plans to open 600 net new locations this year. Having exposure to one of the largest and fastest-growing economies is a good place for the company to be as the world starts to open back up. \nAs far as new locations are concerned, it seems that Starbucks has a much longer runway for growth than Costco does. \nThe valuations \nI just spelled out merits for owning both Costco and Starbucks. While Costco received a boost from the pandemic that still has not let up, Starbucks has since showed resiliency and bounced back after being severely impacted at first. So, which one is the better buy? \nBased on one year forward P/E ratios, Costco (33.8) looks just about slightly cheaper than Starbucks (34.1). But quite honestly, I think investors can't go wrong owning either of these fantastic businesses. They both are adored by consumers, have strong competitive advantages, and still have plenty of growth left.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":137,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
