Actual IRL numberfag here, let me explain:
Anycolor makes more money AND returns more money. Just looking at the last report:
Revenue (total sales):
- Anycolor: 15.8 billion yen
- Cover Corp: 9.6 billion yen
===
Net income (profit after everything is paid):
- Anycolor: 4.9B
- Cover: 0.7B
===
Profit margin (how much of sales becomes profit):
- Anycolor: 31%
- Cover: 7%
===
How much of that money goes back to investors?
- Anycolor: 35 yen/share
- Cover: 0 (they reinvest all their money)
So every 100 yens you invest on Anycolor you get back 1.1 yen/year.
Most investors in the market care more about short term revenue and for that Anycolor is better.
That doesn't mean it is the better company, if you think in 10 years Hololive will still exist then there's a clear advantage for the price (in 10 years). Investment will start to return (things like the studio).
Meanwhile if Anycolor stops paying investors or growth at any time the price will go down hard (hence why Doki's incident caused fear and the stocks went down hard).
