Investment thesis

An industry-leading 50% revenue growth rate and exceptional cash conversion quality are offset by a rich valuation, a price already above near-term resistance, 20% short interest, and a recent quarter that missed estimates by 32% — the fundamental story is real but the current setup offers no margin of safety.
