$SoundHound AI(SOUN.US)$ the only story behind their upcoming earnings is going to be are they going to be cash flow positive this quarter. they completely misled investors last year they assured everybody that Q4 December calendar year last year they would be cash flow positive clearly they were not then they deferred first quarter this year to say towards the end of 25 they would be cash flow positive. they've retired all of their debt it's the smartest thing the company has done obviously they've diluted the shit out of shareholders significantly in the past 2 years to the tune of almost 300%. that being said they are now saving just over 4 million dollars a quarter in interest payments so if they have not pissed away money this most recent quarter they should earn a penny profit a whopping penny but for those that don't understand how they're getting to a point of profitability by retiring debt they will view this as an enormous windfall because when you turn the corner from a company that loses money to making money stocks go up dramatically. so what does this mean if you want to roll the dice buy a call option with enough time to cover their next quarter earnings they're going to be dirt cheap right now, and a penny profit will send the stock up like a moonshot. as of this message the August 9 $5 strikes on the offer are .35 cents a contract. this is how I would Gamble on this company I wouldn't buy the common outright I wouldn't buy the warrants I'd buy this option and you're going to know immediately after hours how well it's going to do understand that the option market closes at 4:00 so you can't do anything you can't sell it so if you want to sell a spike after hrs, you need to own the warrant or the common. if there is a spike the trend for this particular company is the next morning it goes much higher than after hours so I don't think there's the concern if it pops up a dollar after hours and then it consolidates only up .50 cents the next morning it'll be up a 1.50 to $2 dollars. so that's how I would play the earnings I think it's a good risk reward. if you only see a moderate Spike you should get a double out of it even if it's not like stocks only up  10/20cents worst case scenario you'll be able to sell the contracts at the price you paid for them today or a few pennies more a few pennies less so you get to play with little to no risk of principal.
