NEA (ASX) Undeniable

Hi all,

The revenue growth data from the US is what the risk managers have, historically, been concerned with. Will there be sufficient revenue growth/momentum to push the return on this US$30m investment undeniably and irreversibly to positive territory?

"Yes" is now the only possible answer.

I, like other PI's and fundies, will be awaiting the half yearly to update the empirical impact of this upon cash flow and balance sheet to assess the true quality of this growth.

But I'm pretty sure I'll just be confirming that the financial metrics are moving strongly in the right direction.

The next medium term goal that I'll be assessing this investment against are its share and technology leadership within the nascent 3D market; the execution of its competitive strategy.

Depending on how aggressive their marketing and pricing strategy is, I (and subject to some discussion with management/analysts) believe they could readily attain a US ACV of US$80-100m pa within 4 years; eclipsing my estimated Australiasian ACV of A$75-80m.

It is pure personal preference (not a science) in assigning valuation multiples to revenues and EBITDA....so I'll let you do yours.

Yet my models are suggesting a valuation range of A$670-830m within 2 years. A$1.60-A$2.00 fully diluted.

My gut, however, thinks this could be quite conservative.

Cheers,

Great post! @Kafann
What valuation would you put on NEA today. Were do you think at a guestimate fair price should be?
cheers.
