HEALTH WARNING & DISCLAIMER
This is not Investment Advice. The stock discussed in this post is a “Pink Sheet” OTC stock with limited liquidity and almost no reporting. The author may own, buy or sell shares in this company without pre-warning. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH !!

As a change to previous write-ups, I will start with the sound track for this write-up. And of course it is “Rocket Man” from Elton John. It fits in more than one way to this Special situation and you maybe want to listen to it while reading the write-up.

As again, this write-up became a little bit longer, I’ll just show the “elevator pitch” here but will embed the PDF document.

0. Elevator Pitch

Rocket Internet AG,  a former German Venture Capital super star company run by the Samwer brothers has gone “dark” and delisted in 2020. Since then, the stock price languished until more recently, when a German activist sent an open letter to Management and the auditors criticizing the “low balling” of accounting numbers. Diving a little bit deeper, some true gems are hidden in Rocket Internet’s portfolio, especially a participation in SpaceX and prediction market superstar Decacorn Kalshi. The current share price reflects most likely less than 50% the current NAV. In my opinion, the upcoming SpaceX IPO and further positive development of Kalshi could maybe act as a “catalyst” and lead to a higher share price. In addition there is a (low) chance that Rocket Internet might distribute another special dividend as they did in 2024.
