Starbreeze: Lower valuation improves risk-reward ratio ahead of PAYDAY 3 release
With the release date of PAYDAY 3 nearing, our confidence in the game’s success remains. We are particularly encouraged by the positive feedback the game has received and the positive indicators related to the game released by Starbreeze. The biggest question mark surrounding Starbreeze is the medium to long-term future of the company and what level of confidence to assign to any projections regarding the games after PAYDAY 3. However, with the recent decline in share price, we believe the risk-reward ratio has returned to being modestly positive.
