Note: GitLab last reported back in late March and is not scheduled to report again until early June. So…based on a Champico Industries Executive Board decision (The Board consists of our cook, the landscaper, my granddaughter, and myself) - it was resolved to go ahead and do a Naughty and Nice ER review on the March report and then update the company status in June. Seems reasonable.
GitLab - Software for Software Development with Various Other Software Stuff and So On and So Forth.

The Gartner Market Guide for value stream delivery platforms further supports our view. It states that by 2024, 60% of organizations will have switched to a platform approach. This would represent 300% growth from a 20% adoption rate in 2021: ATTA BOY!

What makes GitLab unique is how we both sustain the growth in our cohorts over a long period of time and also expand the size of our cohorts. To illustrate this, cohorts from six years ago are still expanding today: ATTA BOY!

Our paid tiers are priced per user with different features per tier. Every user within an organization is on the same plan which helps keep our business model transparent and easy to understand. The Ultimate tier is our fastest-growing tier, now representing 37% of our annual recurring revenue for the fourth quarter compared with 26% of annual recurring revenue in the fourth quarter of FY 2021 and growing in excess of 100%: ATTA BOY!

GTLB ER SCORE: ATTA BOYS 11/ OH POOPS 1
GTLB LIST and RANKING Assignment: NICE #2
Note: GitLab is attractive especially since falling off the sell-off cliff but it remains to be seen what happens to Guidance once they report in June. If they are rock solid at that time the stock should move nicely. In the meantime - the company is not actually cheap by any means and they are fighting for ground with the big boys. Wyrd Bio Full Araed! This is a White Tent for me.
All the Best,
