>GoPro issued a going-concern warning after memory prices rose 80-115%. Revenue fell 26%. It’s exploring a sale, a defence pivot, and 23% staff cuts.
GoPro warned on Monday that there is “substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.” The action-camera maker reported a 26% revenue decline in Q1 and expects to breach several loan covenants. Shares fell as much as 14%.
The cause is memory. GoPro said its earnings forecast has been “significantly impacted” by an 80% to 115% increase in memory prices. In April, suppliers informed the company of a planned reduction in memory supply that would further reduce forecasted sales. The same DRAM reallocation that is killing the cheap smartphone is now threatening to kill GoPro.
