Tinexta enjoyed its strongest year for underlying profit growth in FY23 since FY18 which, given the recent challenging macro environment, is testimony to the changes in its business portfolio. Management has a consistent strategy of strengthening its market leadership, greater coordination between and integration of its divisions, M&A and expanding geographic coverage. Management’s new guidance suggests an even better year for underlying profit in FY24 and high-teens growth over the next three y

The announcement of the binding and irrevocable offer to gradually acquire the whole of ABF Group (ABF) is consistent with Tinexta’s strategy of internationalising its core businesses, in this case Business Innovation (BI), which is Tinexta’s second fastest growing (by revenue) and most profitable division, according to management guidance. The acquisition is expected to be accretive to Tinexta’s overall growth and profitability, with an expectation that ABF’s future
Tinexta’s Q323 results showed continued strong underlying revenue and profit growth in what is typically a relatively small quarter from a revenue and profit perspective due to the inherent seasonality of its Cyber Security (CS) and Business Innovation (BI) divisions. Management’s reiteration of its previous financial guidance, albeit with different growth drivers than originally anticipated, is reassuring given the dependence of the full year results on the performance of the current, final qua
Tinexta’s revenue and adjusted EBITDA year-on-year growth slowed a little in Q223 after a strong start to the year, but there was improving momentum in revenue and profitability from the two divisions that are forecast to generate the fastest growth in FY23. Of most significance was the acceleration by the Cyber Security (CS) division, which appears to have turned a corner since the start of the year following relatively disappointing growth post the acquisitions. The low net debt position leave
Tinexta’s Q123 results reflect trends that are consistent with prior years for the Digital Trust (DT) and Business Innovation (BI) divisions, coupled with a reassuring boost from a rebound in growth by Cyber Security (CS). The conservative balance sheet with an almost net cash position at the end of Q123 should enable Tinexta to undertake further M&A, which could provide scope for upgrades to profit estimates. We increase our DCF-based valuation to €30.4/share (€29.5 previously).
Tinexta’s FY22 results demonstrated strong growth but were just shy of our expectations, mainly due to lower growth than expected from the Cyber Security (CS) division. Management’s new guidance suggests greater profit growth in FY23 than was delivered in FY22, before any contributions from recently announced and likely further mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are considered. The growth plan continues to focus on strengthening Tinexta’s position in its reference markets, M&A, internationalisation
Tinexta’s binding agreement to acquire an initial 20% stake in Defence Tech Holding (DTH) will provide a significant presence in a new client vertical (government/defence) for its Cyber Security business unit. DTH’s major assets include proprietary technology in an industry with a high security requirement, and ownership of authorisation centres to uphold Italy’s national security protocol, implying strong barriers to entry.
Tinexta’s Q322 results highlighted the consistent strong growth of Digital Trust (DT) and contributions from M&A (seven acquisitions), offset by the typical lower seasonal contribution from its other divisions, which management believes were accentuated by the phasing of demand for certain products and services. Despite the more challenging macroeconomic backdrop, management re-iterated its FY22 guidance. This will require a greater profit contribution by Q4 than is typical, which management bel
Tinexta’s interim results were strong due to a combination of underlying growth and contributions from M&A. The completion of the disposal of its lowest-growth division, Credit Information and Management (CIM), leaves Tinexta with a significantly improved financial position, and therefore well placed to take account of recent weakness in equity markets to undertake further M&A. The reiteration of underlying guidance for FY22, despite the disposal of lower-growth CIM, indicates a little more caut
Tinexta’s proposal sale of its Credit Information & Management (CIM) division is significant from a financial and strategic perspective. With respect to the former, the remaining group should demonstrate higher aggregate pro forma revenue and profit growth and it will have significantly improved financial fire power to pursue further M&A in the higher-growth business units. Strategically, it removes a business that has low exposure to the thematic growth driver of a digitising economy, limited o
Tinexta reported a good start to the year with continued strong organic revenue growth in Q122. This was further boosted by first-time contributions from acquisitions completed through FY21 and into FY22, which were also helpful to the total margin. Management re-iterated its financial guidance for FY22 while recognising the greater macroeconomic and inflationary pressures than when the guidance was made earlier in the year. The recent share price weakness means the stock is trading at a substan
Tinexta delivered FY21 results that were in line with our expectations, while undertaking a higher-than-average level of M&A as it sought to develop further the services it provides to customers and grow its international presence. Management’s new three-year (FY22–24) business plan points to attractive growth for revenue (low double digit) and adjusted EBITDA (mid-double digit) from a combination of organic growth, further M&A and cost efficiencies. Our estimate for adjusted EBITDA in FY22 is b

Eleco’s FY23 results show robust organic recurring revenue growth of +17% with recurring revenue +22% to £20.7m, adj EBITDA +2% ahead of the January update, and a confident outlook with Q1 ARR already at £24.5m vs £22.6m at FY23. At this point, the excellent start to FY24 leads us to reiterate our FY24-26E revenue, adj EBITDA, EFCF, and DPS, and we include the April 2024 acquisition of Vertical Digital in our FY24-26E net cash, as we explain below.

Cerillion has announced a very solid update, as H1 sales and EBITDA are both up 10% y/y to £22.5m and £10.9m respectively, notwithstanding the exceptionally strong base period (sales and EBITDA +27% and +38% resp.). Results therefore point to continued strong customer demand, reflecting how Cerillion’s out-of-the-box product continues to resonate and gain adoption, particularly in a ‘budget conscious’ environment, by offering faster time to market, greater configurability and at a lower cost.

As reported in March, underlying EBITDA profitability improved to record levels despite FX headwinds. Further platform and proposition developments were completed, key steps on its digital roadmap, and it has already won 7 contracts YTD. Alongside planned growth in private membership, this will at least offset the loss of one contract. Forecasts are left unchanged today and, as member engagement throttles back up, FX headwinds ease, and proof points of digital efficiency emerge, markets should b

Alphawave Semi has reduced guidance for FY23 and prospectively citing lower revenues from China, changes in expected revenue recognition from long-term contracts, and continuing investment in R&D. The share price has reacted negatively, giving up most of the gains since the trading statement at the end of January. Current consensus, which is a good match for pre-existing guidance, should be reduced, most likely following release of the FY23 results and full 1Q24 trading update due on 23 April. H

Devolver Digital encouragingly delivered 2023 results slightly ahead of expectations and provided a steady medium-term outlook that leads us to reiterate our 2024 Adjusted EBITDA estimates. Longer term, the company is now planning to further develop its two major planned titles, Human Fall Flat 2 and System Era's next major new release. We now expect those major titles to be released in 2026 rather than 2025, meaning we lower our 2025 Adjusted EBITDA forecast to $10.6m from $17.6m but introduce
