all right brian tell us what is stock number one? stock number one is airbnb which trades under the ticker symbol abnb we're very confident that you're familiar with airbnb's business model this is a platform that connects people so that want to stay somewhere with hosts that's right brian airbnb has only been publicly traded for a little over a year, but the dynamics of the business go further than that that's because obviously business contracted during the pandemic, and it has since expanded in fact over the past twelve months, revenue has grown sixty five percent and here's what's even more important during the worst of the pandemic, the company's free cash flow was bleeding out money like crazy but since then it is recovered remarkably in fact over the last twelve months, airbnb has generated over two billion dollars in free cash flow yeah, the numbers are as clear as day this business is now much stronger and much bigger than it was just a few years ago but how has it done for investors so far well, if we look at the stock, since it came public it's only up about eleven percent which isn't terrible but it's certainly not great either, while i'm not an investor who focuses too much on valuation i want to point this out the company's price to free cash flow ratio is sitting at about forty six, which is its lowest point just about ever now that's still expensive on a relative basis, but i think it's a pretty good deal now we've talked about airbnb on this channel before and this company scores extremely well on both of our investing checklists that's right brian so when i see a business that's doing better over time, but its stock is falling i'm excited to have more all right airbnb is stock number one。
