Shares of Groupon Inc (GRPN) dropped by 35.03% from $15.20 to $9.88 in the trading on Tuesday, October 10, 2023. The reason why GRPN stock down is due to the company's decision to sell a portion of its stake in SumUp at a valuation that was 50% below initial expectations. In detail, Groupon sold 9.4% of its stake in SumUp at a lower-than-expected price, signaling SumUp's value at $4.1 billion, a stark drop from $8.5 billion in June 2022. Groupon's remaining stake is now worth $94 million, causing nearly a $100 million loss and impacting its market capitalization, which currently stands at $360 million. Groupon faces financial challenges, highlighted by a "going concern" warning, and aims to improve liquidity through this sale. The devaluation mirrors a broader trend in the fintech industry. This move had a negative impact on Groupon's stock price.
