ALJ Regional Holdings, Inc. (ALJJ) Stock Declining After a Hefty Wednesday, Here’s the Reason

ALJ Regional Holdings, Inc. (ALJJ), a company that provides call center, back-office, staffing, and toll collection services to government and commercial clients, has declined 7.43% in aftermarket trading session. Consequently, ALJJ stock is trading at $1.62 at the time of the writing. The decline could be attributed to profit-taking factor after the stock rocketed 48.31% in Monday’s mid-day session and closed the day at $1.75. The acquisition of a public sector citizen experience platform is perceived to be the reason behind this surge in ALJJ stock.

Why ALJJ Surged?

On Wednesday, ALJJ announced the acquisition of certain citizen experience and smart city assets of Faneuil, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of ALJ Regional Holdings. The transaction is expected to close during the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The closure is subject to customary closing conditions and consent which also includes the competition clearance by the Federal Trade Commission.
