On September 2022, Dave & Buster's Entertainment (PLAY) released Q2 2022 financial results which fell short of market expectations.
The company's operating margin declined to 12.1% from 21% a year ago, which was related among other things to acquisition-related costs, higher compensation expenses, and lower operational efficiencies.
On this news, Company's shares plunged by 14% and lost about $ 300 million of its capitalization on September 08, 2022.
Back on June 29, 2022, PLAY announced the completion of its acquisition of Main Event. Kevin Sheehan, Chairman of the Board commented on the event as follows: “These two brands perfectly complement each other, and their joining puts our Company in a strategically unparalleled position for accelerated, profitable growth...".
Given management's statements and subsequent facts, there are grounds for suspicion that either miscalculation or negligence or misleading shareholders about the profitability of acquiring another company may take place.
