On December 11, 2023, White Diamond Research published a report entitled “A Mountain of Evidence Suggests That Much of Direct Digital Holdings Revenue May Be Fake and Is Hiding Its Uncollectible Accounts Receivable – 90%+ Downside” (the “White Diamond Report”). The White Diamond Report alleges that “[DDH] uses ‘accounts receivable insurance’ to hide from investors what its true uncollectible accounts receivable is”, which “puts the quality of the revenue in question”; notes that “[DDH] doesn’t mention any patents and reports zero R&D expense for its technology”, which “suggests that its tech isn’t proprietary and isn’t improving to keep up with the strong competition in the space”; and asserts that “[DDH] is practically broke, with a reported $5.5M in cash, accounts payable that almost doubled quarter over quarter to $45M, and a sizeable debt of $24M with a 15% interest rate.”
On this news, DDH’s stock price fell $1.39 per share, or 11.31%, to close at $10.90 per share on December 11, 2023.
