Here is what Aristotle Capital specifically said about Twitter, Inc. (NYSE:TWTR) in its Q2 2022 investor letter:
“We first invested in Twitter, Inc. (NYSE:TWTR) in the third quarter of 2018. During our holding period, the company executed on some catalysts that include improving the health of the platform (though more improvements can certainly be made) and enhancing the advertising server to allow for a greater mix of direct response ads. However, Twitter disappointed on others, chief among them being the company’s inability to gain market share. Furthermore, we recently began evaluating the strategy of new CEO Parag Agrawal (appointed at the end of 2021), but the prospect of changes under his leadership was overcome by Elon Musk’s $44 billion offer ($54.20 per share) to acquire Twitter. As the investment case became more reliant on a merger-arbitrage scenario – and less about Twitter’s business fundamentals – we exited our position in late April/early May and invested the proceeds in Munich Re Group, which is discussed below.”
