IAC Inc. (IAC) Presents at TD Cowen's 54th Annual Technology, Media & Telecom Conference Transcript
Simplification of the business from a holding company to just People Inc. (Publishing) and MGM Resorts (Betting) should help close the conglomerate discount gap vs. fair value. Selling off non-core assets like Turo and Vivian, followed by shareholder-friendly allocation of capital, should boost the stock price, with buybacks being the first method of returning capital to shareholders.
