COMMENT
e.l.f. Beauty
A digital-focused, cruelty free cosmetics company. They reported after the close today. They collapsed when Covid hit last year, and have made a strong comeback, because they had the infrastructure to take advantage of e-commerce. They reported a confusing quarter: sales were higher than expected, but earnings missed due to rising costs. Also, management raised their forecast for this quarter. That said, he still likes it.

COMMENT
e.l.f. Beauty
This cosmetics company got hammered. ELF suffered issues in their distribution channel. He's confident this will come back. The CEO is solid and he likes their products.
