His company revolutionized the payroll process by taking it entirely online. It has continued to be a disruptive force over the years, developing a single cloud-based software solution to help companies manage all their human resources (HR) processes.</p><p>The company&#39;s latest innovation, Beti, is once again disrupting the industry by changing the entire payroll procedure. It&#39;s helping drive explosive growth for Paycom, which could continue for years to come.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/933b605f0da9ea748d7fd549f8360a85\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>A better payroll system</h2><p>Richison discussed Paycom&#39;s latest disruptive move on the fourth-quarter conference call. He noted that the company &#34;extended our platform to the employee even further through innovations like BETI, which enables employees to do their own payroll, and we are seeing very strong adoption and record employee usage.&#34;</p><p>The company sees Beti, which stands for Better Employee Transaction Interface, as the new way of doing payroll. The industry-first employee-driven payroll solution improves data accuracy, oversight, and user experience. It puts the payroll responsibility into the hands of employees, eliminating a multistep, imperfect, and time-consuming process for HR departments while giving employees more insight into their pay.</p><p>Richison stated on the call:</p><blockquote>For years, I have been predicting the end of the old model, whereby HR and payroll personnel&#39;s routine of inputting data for employees, is replaced by a self-service model that provides employees direct access to the database. The old model is dying and that is good for both the business and the employee. Paycom is leading this transformation.</blockquote><p>That&#39;s just the latest innovation from the company. The company&#39;s single-database HR platform works better than the cobbled-together systems that most companies use today. That has enabled Paycom to capitalize by offering companies an easy-to-use system that improves user experiences, allowing them to maximize the return on this investment in Paycom&#39;s software.</p><h2>An unstoppable growth driver</h2><p>This award-winning solution has been a smashing success. It helped drive record annual revenue retention of 94% in 2021, up from 93% in the prior year. It was also a key growth driver. The company ended the year with nearly 34,000 clients, up 9% compared to 2020. Meanwhile, revenue surged 29% year-over-year in the fourth quarter and 25.4% for the full year. Earnings grew even faster as its margin expanded despite aggressive spending to grow the business. The company delivered an adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) margin of 39.7% of its revenue in 2021, up from 39.3% in 2020.</p><p>Paycom is only scratching the surface of its potential. Richison noted on the call that &#34;we still only have approximately 5% of the TAM (total available market) today, so there&#39;s plenty of runway ahead to expand and continue to capture market share.&#34; It&#39;s investing heavily to continue taking more market share. It opened five new outside sales offices over the last five months (<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MHC.AU\">Manhattan</a>, Las Vegas, Jacksonville, New England, and South Jersey) -- bringing the total to 54 -- to expand its geographic reach. In addition, it has expanded the upper end of its target client size from those with up to 5,000 employees to those with upwards of 10,000 employees.</p><p>These catalysts have Paycom positioned to continue growing fast in 2022 and beyond. The cloud-based software company sees its revenue rising to more than $1.3 billion this year, putting it up nearly 25% from last year&#39;s total.

His company revolutionized the payroll process by taking it entirely online. It has continued to be a disruptive force over the years, developing a single cloud-based software solution to help companies manage all their human resources (HR) processes.The company's latest innovation, Beti, is once again disrupting the industry by changing the entire payroll procedure. It's helping drive explosive growth for Paycom, which could continue for years to come.Image source: Getty Images.A better payroll systemRichison discussed Paycom's latest disruptive move on the fourth-quarter conference call. He noted that the company \"extended our platform to the employee even further through innovations like BETI, which enables employees to do their own payroll, and we are seeing very strong adoption and record employee usage.\"The company sees Beti, which stands for Better Employee Transaction Interface, as the new way of doing payroll. The industry-first employee-driven payroll solution improves data accuracy, oversight, and user experience. It puts the payroll responsibility into the hands of employees, eliminating a multistep, imperfect, and time-consuming process for HR departments while giving employees more insight into their pay.Richison stated on the call:For years, I have been predicting the end of the old model, whereby HR and payroll personnel's routine of inputting data for employees, is replaced by a self-service model that provides employees direct access to the database. The old model is dying and that is good for both the business and the employee. Paycom is leading this transformation.That's just the latest innovation from the company. The company's single-database HR platform works better than the cobbled-together systems that most companies use today. That has enabled Paycom to capitalize by offering companies an easy-to-use system that improves user experiences, allowing them to maximize the return on this investment in Paycom's software.An unstoppable growth driverThis award-winning solution has been a smashing success. It helped drive record annual revenue retention of 94% in 2021, up from 93% in the prior year. It was also a key growth driver. The company ended the year with nearly 34,000 clients, up 9% compared to 2020. Meanwhile, revenue surged 29% year-over-year in the fourth quarter and 25.4% for the full year. Earnings grew even faster as its margin expanded despite aggressive spending to grow the business. The company delivered an adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) margin of 39.7% of its revenue in 2021, up from 39.3% in 2020.Paycom is only scratching the surface of its potential. Richison noted on the call that \"we still only have approximately 5% of the TAM (total available market) today, so there's plenty of runway ahead to expand and continue to capture market share.\" It's investing heavily to continue taking more market share. It opened five new outside sales offices over the last five months (Manhattan, Las Vegas, Jacksonville, New England, and South Jersey) -- bringing the total to 54 -- to expand its geographic reach. In addition, it has expanded the upper end of its target client size from those with up to 5,000 employees to those with upwards of 10,000 employees.These catalysts have Paycom positioned to continue growing fast in 2022 and beyond. The cloud-based software company sees its revenue rising to more than $1.3 billion this year, putting it up nearly 25% from last year's total. Meanwhile, it sees a further improvement in its adjusted EBITDA margin to around 40% this year, suggesting continued strong profit growth.Lots of growth still aheadPaycom continues to disrupt the payroll industry by launching innovative software solutions that improve the process. While it has grown tremendously over the years, it still has lots of room to run. That upside potential makes it a stock that investors won't want to miss.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":272,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9092424988,"gmtCreate":1644716855372,"gmtModify":1676533955287,"author":{"id":"4103093782756000","authorId":"4103093782756000","name":"Prime23","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/c6e0ba3cdbcad9dc0b3eccfeebcfa416","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4103093782756000","authorIdStr":"4103093782756000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9092424988","repostId":"2210409526","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2210409526","pubTimestamp":1644633920,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2210409526?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-02-12 10:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"China Approves Use of Pfizer's COVID Drug Paxlovid","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2210409526","media":"Reuters","summary":"BEIJING, Feb 12 (Reuters) - China's medical products regulator said on Saturday it has given conditi","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>BEIJING, Feb 12 (Reuters) - China&#39;s medical products regulator said on Saturday it has given conditional approval for Pfizer&#39;s COVID-19 treatment Paxlovid, making it the first oral anti-coronavirus pill approved in the country to treat the disease.</p><p>The National Medical Products Administration said Paxlovid has obtained conditional approval to treat adults who have mild to moderate COVID-19 and high risk of progressing to a severe condition.

The index slid by 1.8% on Thursday and the Nasdaq dropped 2.1%, as technology shares came under pressure while Treasury yields spiked. The benchmark 10-year yield drifted slightly lower after breaking above 2% for the first time since August 2019.</p><p>Stocks sold off and yields climbed after the Bureau of Labor Statistics&#39; January Consumer Price Index(CPI) showed the biggest annual jump in inflation since 1982.</p><p>The surging 7.5% jump in prices escalated calls for the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates more aggressively than previously expected and begin rolling assets off its balance sheet, in moves that would curb liquidity in the financial system and dampen soaring consumer demand and prices. St. Louis Federal Reserve President James Bullard told Bloomberg News on Thursday he wanted to see interest rates be raised by a full percentage by July and start the Fed&#39;s balance sheet run-off process in the second quarter, in one of the most hawkish paths so far telegraphed by a Fed official.</p><p>&#34;That&#39;s not out of the realm of possibility,&#34; David Spika, GuideStone Capital Management president, told Yahoo Finance Live on Thursday about Bullard&#39;s suggestion. &#34;The Fed realizes they have to start moving. ... Consumers are getting killed with this inflation. The Fed has to move and has to move quickly if they want to rein this in.&#34;</p><p>&#34;If you go back even to the end of the financial crisis, monetary policy has been the key factor in driving returns and really providing that &#39;Fed put&#39; that really allowed investors to come in and buy the dip,&#34; he added. &#34;Those days are behind us — particularly with the inflation we&#39;re seeing now — and the market does not like this. It&#39;s like a kid that has never been told &#39;no,&#39; that is now being told no and is throwing a temper tantrum. This will continue.&#34;</p><p>And against the inflationary backdrop, others also increased their expectations for the number of rate hikes the Fed is likely to roll out this year. Deutsche Bank economists said Thursday they now expect two more quarter-point hikes than they had previously forecasted. With the upgrade, they now see a 50 basis point rate hike at the March Fed meeting, followed by 25 basis point hikes after each of the following meetings of the year except for in November. If realized, a half-point rate hike in March would mark the Fed&#39;s first increase of more than 25 basis points since 2000.</p><p>&#34;I think investors have to ask themselves, do I want to hedge against inflation, or do I want to beat inflation? And so, I think things like gold are where you can hedge, but I think there are other areas where you can continue to outpace and see outsized gains relative to inflation,&#34; Jordan Jackson, JPMorgan Asset Management global market strategist,told Yahoo Finance Live on Thursday.&#34;I think that&#39;s things like equities, I do think commodity markets are relatively well-supported here as well.

7% in December, and if it comes in higher than expected we could see 10 year yields go higher and even reach 2%, and push a value rotation,\" she added.Higher yields typically cause investors to move out of so called growth stocks, particularly technology names, into value stocks.U.S. Treasury yields held firm in Asian trading, after touching multi-year highs the day before as did yields in the euro zone.The yield on 10-year Treasury notes was 1.9397%, having hit 1.97% on Tuesday, its highest since Nov 2019, and the two-year was 1.3435%, just below its highest since March 2020.In Asia, the 10-year Japanese government bond yield touched 0.215% in morning trade, its highest since January 2016 Currency markets were pretty quiet, with the dollar index, which measures the greenback against six peers was at 95.559, little moved, down 0.07%.Oil regained some ground after falling earlier in the week due to optimism around talks with Iran, leading to a possible rise in supply.Brent crude futures rose 0.3%, to $91.15 a barrel, while U.S. crude was at $89.7 a barrel, up 0.4%.Spot gold was steady at $1,827.9 per

Roblox empowers its users to become developers/creators by providing them with the tools to do so through Roblox Studio and supporting the back-end on Roblox Cloud.</p><p>In traditional video game production and R&amp;D, the capital is spent upfront and costs can be exceptionally high (“AAA” games can cost $100M+, ex. Cyberpunk 2077 had a budget of $300M) and there is no certainty of success and constant unpredictability of community perception. For Roblox, they “outsource” their game production to millions of eager developers and pay for only successful content. Essentially, RBLX being based on UGC continuously feeds the platform while de-risking the development process and solving for launch risk and franchise fatigue that “AAA” games face.</p><p><b>Examples of RBLX games:</b>Adopt Me! (17bn visits), Tower of Hell (7bn visits), Welcome to Bloxburg (4bn visits).</p><p><b>Growth Avenues Expanding User Base and Increasing Monetization</b></p><p>Roblox has grown tremendously and has a significant presence in their core market (8-12 yr olds in western markets). There are numerous levers to be pulled by management to continue top-line growth.</p><ol><li><b>Expand user base in international markets.</b>Roblox is highly penetrated in western/English-speaking markets. International expansion has seen early indications of success (2-3x user growth in Japan and Korea). The Chinese market is not served by RBLX. Could represent 50-100m new MAUs via Tencent license.</li><li><b>Increase appeal to older audiences.</b>~50% of daily-active users are &lt;12 y/o so there is significant upside in capturing older audiences. Continued investment in the platform and development of sophisticated games could attract this audience. There is early evidence of success as Roblox has improved its sophistication with the 13 and older audience growing at ~70% vs. 50% of the 13 and under audience on average over the last three years.</li><li><b>Increase monetization.</b>Increasing importance of digital identity should lead to increased spending. Working with developers to better monetize content for mutual benefit. Grow subscription offerings via Roblox premium. Roblox increasingly working with corporate sponsors to add branded content to the game (Nike, Gucci, LVMH, North Face/Vans, etc.). There is a significant incentive for consumer brands such as these to work with Roblox as the lifetime value of these young consumers is high. From Roblox’s November 2021 Investor Day, they explain how every company will have a Roblox strategy in the future.</li><li><b>Expanded platform use and improved functionality.</b>Continued expansion beyond gaming into social, entertainment, learning, e-commerce, and broadly more human co-experiences. An example would be the virtual concerts that are being held on the RBLX platform. Experiences become increasingly engaging and less distinguishable from real-world experiences (examples include: 3D spatial audio implementation, high fidelity avatars, etc.)</li></ol><p><b>The Leader in the Emerging “Metaverse”</b></p><p>Roblox is a social destination. Players stay connected and share experiences with friends. Expanding these virtual experiences will reduce the traditional barriers between games, social entertainment, and commerce. The idea of a “metaverse” is not a new idea, but with powerful and accessible consumer devices, high-speed connections, and cloud computing the concept of the metaverse can be enabled by the right platform. As mentioned above, the continued improvement of the Roblox platform will bring engaging experiences that mirror real life.</p><p>On the front of commerce, Roblox’s VP of Marketing explains how “whether you’re a sports franchise, a fashion brand, movie studio, or musical artist, there are endless possibilities for authentic and immersive experiences that bring your brand to life”.</p><p>Evidence of Metaverse infancy can be seen in events like the Lil Nas X concert (33 million views), community events, and e-commerce and branding through Nikeland, Vans World, etc.</p><p><b>Financials Discussion</b></p><p><b>Revenue</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5594d13be98c855a6407266d40aebb7f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"381\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Roblox Revenue (Roblox Investor Presentation)</span></p><p>Roblox has experienced exceptional revenue growth, especially in the last couple of years. Revenue has been primarily driven by the increase in active users on the Roblox platform. Exceptional growth noted in Q2 2021 is very positive as this was our first attempt in North America to return to normalcy, but Roblox growth was sustained.</p><p>It is important to call out RBLX’s unique approach to revenue recognition though.</p><p><b>Bookings and Roblox Revenue Recognition</b></p><p>When money has been exchanged for Robux (RBLX virtual currency), that is recorded as “bookings”. Revenue is then recognized when the Robux is exchanged for virtual goods and depending on the type of virtual good, there is a different revenue recognition schedule. Items in the Roblox ecosystem can either be “durable”, think clothing for the avatar, or “consumable”, think temporary boosts, Durable items are recognized over a 24-month period whereas consumables are recognized as revenue as soon as they are purchased. ~90% of Robux spent on the platform is on “durable” goods, so 90% of Robux spent is recognized over a 24-month period. This is an important thing to note as we look at Roblox’s bookings, or total conversion of real money to Robux.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ba29b20abeac7d88e4ac285bc32c0f81\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"371\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Roblox Bookings (Roblox Investor Presentation)</span></p><p><b>Costs</b></p><p>Costs and expenses can be delineated into cost of revenue, which primarily consists of third-party payment processing fees, developer fees, which is the amount earned by developers and creators, personnel costs, infrastructure, trust, and safety costs in addition to other operating expenses which are primarily R&amp;D and SG&amp;A. The following is a breakdown of those costs as a % of revenue, of which we can see some scale taking place on some of the line items: G&amp;A, S&amp;M, infrastructure, and R&amp;D.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b6e67165c82238f969583cb77f4308e7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"380\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Roblox Costs (Roblox Filings)</span></p><p><b>Free Cash Flow</b></p><p>RBLX has greatly accelerated their free cash flow generation over the last two years. Free cash flow in the below table is fairly standard cash flow from operations minus capital expenditures and acquisition of intangible assets. It is positive to see the potential of RBLX’s free cash flow generation with an early indicator of success over the past 6-7 quarters.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/54c5731c917d72a9325094a1cc6e3156\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"345\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Roblox Free Cash Flow (Roblox Investor Presentation)</span></p><p><b>Valuation Considerations</b></p><p>Roblox is not exceptionally cheap. However, we are not buying Roblox for the near-term potential, but how it will capture and monetize youth attention. Technology companies recently have broadly pulled back which puts Roblox at a relatively attractive entry point near its IPO point. While Roblox is an expensive stock, the recent pullback and long-term potential make it an incredible value proposition. Currently, RBLX trades at around 11x forward sales and ~50x EBITDA.</p><p><b>Comparable Companies</b></p><p>It is difficult to ascertain a list of truly comparable companies with Roblox. Rather, Roblox is a combination of gaming, socialization, and an outlet for creativity. It’s ability to capture youth attention is invaluable and we can look through comparable companies in a sense to understand what a “gaming”, or “social” company is worth in isolation.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/71b50f16c36ea4d96a99576634233570\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"226\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Roblox Comparable Companies Analysis (Author&#39;s Calculations)</span></p><p><b>Summary of Thesis</b></p><p>Roblox is a unique and highly attractive company. The current environment presents an opportunity to buy the future of youth attention with metaverse optionality. Here’s a summary of the thesis:</p><ul><li><b>A large and unique ecosystem with network effects.</b>Go-to form of entertainment and social interaction for an entire generation of users (16 and under). Scale forms a flywheel where users become developers that create content that attracts new users.</li><li><b>Disrupting game development.</b>RBLX outsources content production to its millions of users and only pays for successful content. Focus on UGC de-risks development and provides a broader more diverse content library without significant capital outlay on R&amp;D.</li><li><b>Multiple levers to drive future growth.</b>RBLX invests in platform functionality, the addressable market can grow by adding more sophisticated games/developers. Additionally, RBLX can expand into international markets, increase monetization, and expand functionality beyond games and into human co-experiences</li><li><b>Attractive financial profile.</b>Combination of high growth, high margins, and cash flow generation. Growth accelerated by COVID-19 is expected to be relatively sticky due to user adoption and continue into the future.</li><li><b>RBLX can provide a virtual universe, or “metaverse”.</b>RBLX can continue to build on the virtual universe with the inclusion of entertainment, community, and e-commerce experiences.</li></ul></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Why Roblox Is A Compelling Risk/Reward Bet With Metaverse Optionality</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nWhy Roblox Is A Compelling Risk/Reward Bet With Metaverse Optionality\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-02-06 09:40 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4484641-roblox-a-compelling-riskreward-bet-with-metaverse-optionality><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryRoblox offers a large and unique ecosystem with network effects. It provides go-to form of entertainment and social interaction for an entire generation of users.

Could represent 50-100m new MAUs via Tencent license.Increase appeal to older audiences.~50% of daily-active users are <12 y/o so there is significant upside in capturing older audiences. Continued investment in the platform and development of sophisticated games could attract this audience. There is early evidence of success as Roblox has improved its sophistication with the 13 and older audience growing at ~70% vs. 50% of the 13 and under audience on average over the last three years.Increase monetization.Increasing importance of digital identity should lead to increased spending. Working with developers to better monetize content for mutual benefit. Grow subscription offerings via Roblox premium. Roblox increasingly working with corporate sponsors to add branded content to the game (Nike, Gucci, LVMH, North Face/Vans, etc.). There is a significant incentive for consumer brands such as these to work with Roblox as the lifetime value of these young consumers is high. From Roblox’s November 2021 Investor Day, they explain how every company will have a Roblox strategy in the future.Expanded platform use and improved functionality.Continued expansion beyond gaming into social, entertainment, learning, e-commerce, and broadly more human co-experiences. An example would be the virtual concerts that are being held on the RBLX platform. Experiences become increasingly engaging and less distinguishable from real-world experiences (examples include: 3D spatial audio implementation, high fidelity avatars, etc.)The Leader in the Emerging “Metaverse”Roblox is a social destination. Players stay connected and share experiences with friends. Expanding these virtual experiences will reduce the traditional barriers between games, social entertainment, and commerce. The idea of a “metaverse” is not a new idea, but with powerful and accessible consumer devices, high-speed connections, and cloud computing the concept of the metaverse can be enabled by the right platform. As mentioned above, the continued improvement of the Roblox platform will bring engaging experiences that mirror real life.On the front of commerce, Roblox’s VP of Marketing explains how “whether you’re a sports franchise, a fashion brand, movie studio, or musical artist, there are endless possibilities for authentic and immersive experiences that bring your brand to life”.Evidence of Metaverse infancy can be seen in events like the Lil Nas X concert (33 million views), community events, and e-commerce and branding through Nikeland, Vans World, etc.Financials DiscussionRevenueRoblox Revenue (Roblox Investor Presentation)Roblox has experienced exceptional revenue growth, especially in the last couple of years. Revenue has been primarily driven by the increase in active users on the Roblox platform. Exceptional growth noted in Q2 2021 is very positive as this was our first attempt in North America to return to normalcy, but Roblox growth was sustained.It is important to call out RBLX’s unique approach to revenue recognition though.Bookings and Roblox Revenue RecognitionWhen money has been exchanged for Robux (RBLX virtual currency), that is recorded as “bookings”. Revenue is then recognized when the Robux is exchanged for virtual goods and depending on the type of virtual good, there is a different revenue recognition schedule. Items in the Roblox ecosystem can either be “durable”, think clothing for the avatar, or “consumable”, think temporary boosts, Durable items are recognized over a 24-month period whereas consumables are recognized as revenue as soon as they are purchased. ~90% of Robux spent on the platform is on “durable” goods, so 90% of Robux spent is recognized over a 24-month period. This is an important thing to note as we look at Roblox’s bookings, or total conversion of real money to Robux.Roblox Bookings (Roblox Investor Presentation)CostsCosts and expenses can be delineated into cost of revenue, which primarily consists of third-party payment processing fees, developer fees, which is the amount earned by developers and creators, personnel costs, infrastructure, trust, and safety costs in addition to other operating expenses which are primarily R&D and SG&A. The following is a breakdown of those costs as a % of revenue, of which we can see some scale taking place on some of the line items: G&A, S&M, infrastructure, and R&D.Roblox Costs (Roblox Filings)Free Cash FlowRBLX has greatly accelerated their free cash flow generation over the last two years. Free cash flow in the below table is fairly standard cash flow from operations minus capital expenditures and acquisition of intangible assets. It is positive to see the potential of RBLX’s free cash flow generation with an early indicator of success over the past 6-7 quarters.Roblox Free Cash Flow (Roblox Investor Presentation)Valuation ConsiderationsRoblox is not exceptionally cheap. However, we are not buying Roblox for the near-term potential, but how it will capture and monetize youth attention. Technology companies recently have broadly pulled back which puts Roblox at a relatively attractive entry point near its IPO point. While Roblox is an expensive stock, the recent pullback and long-term potential make it an incredible value proposition. Currently, RBLX trades at around 11x forward sales and ~50x EBITDA.Comparable CompaniesIt is difficult to ascertain a list of truly comparable companies with Roblox. Rather, Roblox is a combination of gaming, socialization, and an outlet for creativity. It’s ability to capture youth attention is invaluable and we can look through comparable companies in a sense to understand what a “gaming”, or “social” company is worth in isolation.Roblox Comparable Companies Analysis (Author's Calculations)Summary of ThesisRoblox is a unique and highly attractive company. The current environment presents an opportunity to buy the future of youth attention with metaverse optionality. Here’s a summary of the thesis:A large and unique ecosystem with network effects.Go-to form of entertainment and social interaction for an entire generation of users (16 and under). Scale forms a flywheel where users become developers that create content that attracts new users.Disrupting game development.RBLX outsources content production to its millions of users and only pays for successful content. Focus on UGC de-risks development and provides a broader more diverse content library without significant capital outlay on R&D.Multiple levers to drive future growth.RBLX invests in platform functionality, the addressable market can grow by adding more sophisticated games/developers. Additionally, RBLX can expand into international markets, increase monetization, and expand functionality beyond games and into human co-experiencesAttractive financial profile.Combination of high growth, high margins, and cash flow generation. Growth accelerated by COVID-19 is expected to be relatively sticky due to user adoption and continue into the future.RBLX can provide a virtual universe, or “metaverse”.RBLX can continue to build on the virtual universe with the inclusion of entertainment, community, and e-commerce experiences.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":388,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9090133905,"gmtCreate":1643110458054,"gmtModify":1676533774901,"author":{"id":"4103093782756000","authorId":"4103093782756000","name":"Prime23","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/c6e0ba3cdbcad9dc0b3eccfeebcfa416","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4103093782756000","authorIdStr":"4103093782756000"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great","listText":"Great","text":"Great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9090133905","repostId":"2206835626","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2206835626","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1643108422,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2206835626?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-25 19:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"JPMorgan Agrees to Acquire 49% Stake in Greek fintech Viva Wallet","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2206835626","media":"Reuters","summary":"ATHENS, Jan 25 (Reuters) - JP Morgan    said on Tuesday it has agreed to acquire a stake of about 49","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>ATHENS, Jan 25 (Reuters) - JP Morgan    said on Tuesday it has agreed to acquire a stake of about 49% in Greece-based payments fintech Viva Wallet, subject to regulatory approvals.</p><p>Cloud-based Viva Wallet provides card acceptance services through its POS application, add-on Google play devices and advanced payment systems in online stores.

Roblox is a highly attractive asset with a massive user base (150M+ MAUs), significant long-term potential, optionality in the growing prevalence of the “metaverse”, multiple growth levers to pull, and attractive user economics driving a reasonably robust financial profile. The broad-based tech pullback presents a great risk/reward point for RBLX.</p><p><b>Company Overview</b></p><p>Roblox is a gaming and social entertainment platform where individuals can design, build, or play games. Users create their own avatars and play any number of thousands of games that are all created by other players. RBLX is more than a game, but rather an entire ecosystem where creators (user developers) build games and experiences on RBLX’s creative engine and upload them to the RBLX platform for users to play. It manifests itself into a 3D `universe’ where people can gather, game, and socialize.</p><p>The RBLX infrastructure consists of three pillars:</p><ul><li><i>Roblox Client:</i>the application that allows users to play the games</li><li><i>Roblox Studio</i>: the toolset that enables creators and developers to build, publish, and operate games and experiences that other users can access in the game client. It requires little to no code to develop a game.</li><li><i>Roblox Cloud</i>: the services and infrastructure that support and power the platform</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/26be3a6043a5e7ac91e31590ff1351bd\" tg-width=\"460\" tg-height=\"345\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Roblox Studio Example (WikiHow)</span></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/df07a21f7dd773490412bb63b4379121\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Roblox Experience Example (Vansworld)</span></p><p>While most users enter the platform as gamers, the platform has expanded to become a hub for social interaction where users can watch concerts, movies, or socialize.</p><blockquote><i>Roblox’s mission is to build a human co-experience platform that enables shared experiences among billions of users.</i>Every day, tens of millions of people around the world have fun with friends as they explore millions of immersive digital experiences. All of these experiences are built by the Roblox community, made up of millions of creators. We believe in building a safe, civil, and diverse community—one that inspires and fosters creativity and positive relationships between people around the world.</blockquote><blockquote>(Roblox Reports November 2021 Key Metrics).</blockquote><p>Business Model</p><p>Roblox primarily earns revenue via the sale of their virtual currency, “Robux”, to users. Here is a quick breakdown of how Robux works from both the developer and user perspective:</p><ul><li>Developers create and publish games to the platform which either offer cosmetic items for sale within their game or have some aspect of a typical pay-to-play game, where users must pay to progress in their journey.</li><li>Users of the game exchange real-world currencies for Robux and spend these Robux on such items/expansions.</li><li>Roblox takes their cut of the transaction, pays the app stores, and gives the rest to the developers.</li><li>The developers can exchange the Robux for real-world currencies.</li></ul><p><b>Investment Thesis</b></p><p>Roblox is an attractive asset. There is significant long-term potential due to the following factors of their business model paired with the relatively attractive current entry point due to a non-fundamental pullback.</p><ol><li>It is a unique and large ecosystem with strong network effects.</li><li>Disrupts the typical video game value chain turning users into creators and decentralizing production.</li><li>Numerous growth avenues to expand the user base and monetization</li><li>Optionality beyond gaming and into the “metaverse” -- or virtual universe</li></ol><p><b>Ecosystem, Network Effects, and the Roblox Flywheel</b></p><p>Roblox has built a tremendous platform with over 150 million monthly active users (MAUs) and is the first choice of entertainment and social interaction for the entire generation of children and adolescents in North America and Europe. The sheer scale of users on Roblox spins their flywheel where the number of users attracts developers to design engaging content which in turn attracts more users and higher monetization potential. Below is an illustration of how this virtuous cycle works:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b5ee981096e0e6ae86ee32aa48c2531c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"438\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Roblox Flywheel (Created by user)</span></p><p>The installed base of users is sticky via both the inherently social nature of the platform and money spent on the platform to unlock games or outfit their avatars which disincentivizes exploring other platforms and reinforces the competitive moat. We can see this through their impressive daily active user growth.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d2c3a78fb184d8e874431939c9765d79\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"378\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Roblox Daily Active Users (Roblox Investor Presentation)</span></p><p>On the point of avatars, Roblox is centered around user identity via their created avatars. All users on Roblox have a unique identity that allows for individual expression and these avatars transcend any individual game as the user avatar is used across all games in the Roblox universe.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/055bdec56beca6d556ae0395c8ecdb2a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"578\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Roblox Avatar Customization (Roblox)</span></p><p><b>Decentralized Game and Experience Production</b></p><p>As previously mentioned, Roblox’s games and experiences are user-generated content (UGC). Roblox empowers its users to become developers/creators by providing them with the tools to do so through Roblox Studio and supporting the back-end on Roblox Cloud.</p><p>In traditional video game production and R&amp;D, the capital is spent upfront and costs can be exceptionally high (“AAA” games can cost $100M+, ex. Cyberpunk 2077 had a budget of $300M) and there is no certainty of success and constant unpredictability of community perception. For Roblox, they “outsource” their game production to millions of eager developers and pay for only successful content. Essentially, RBLX being based on UGC continuously feeds the platform while de-risking the development process and solving for launch risk and franchise fatigue that “AAA” games face.</p><p><b>Examples of RBLX games:</b>Adopt Me!

Scale forms a flywheel to attract users and developers.Multiple growth avenues through growing the addressable market by adding more sophisticated games/developers. Additionally, RBLX can expand into international markets, increase monetization, and drive a platform for human co-experiences.Recent broad-based market pullback and technical movement present an interesting risk/reward weighted bet on Roblox given their immense long-term potential.Michael Vi/iStock Editorial via Getty ImagesRoblox (RBLX) is the “go-to” gaming, entertainment, and socialization platform for the youth (<16 y/o) demographic in North America and Europe. Roblox is a highly attractive asset with a massive user base (150M+ MAUs), significant long-term potential, optionality in the growing prevalence of the “metaverse”, multiple growth levers to pull, and attractive user economics driving a reasonably robust financial profile. The broad-based tech pullback presents a great risk/reward point for RBLX.Company OverviewRoblox is a gaming and social entertainment platform where individuals can design, build, or play games. Users create their own avatars and play any number of thousands of games that are all created by other players. RBLX is more than a game, but rather an entire ecosystem where creators (user developers) build games and experiences on RBLX’s creative engine and upload them to the RBLX platform for users to play. It manifests itself into a 3D `universe’ where people can gather, game, and socialize.The RBLX infrastructure consists of three pillars:Roblox Client:the application that allows users to play the gamesRoblox Studio: the toolset that enables creators and developers to build, publish, and operate games and experiences that other users can access in the game client. It requires little to no code to develop a game.Roblox Cloud: the services and infrastructure that support and power the platformRoblox Studio Example (WikiHow)Roblox Experience Example (Vansworld)While most users enter the platform as gamers, the platform has expanded to become a hub for social interaction where users can watch concerts, movies, or socialize.Roblox’s mission is to build a human co-experience platform that enables shared experiences among billions of users.Every day, tens of millions of people around the world have fun with friends as they explore millions of immersive digital experiences. All of these experiences are built by the Roblox community, made up of millions of creators. We believe in building a safe, civil, and diverse community—one that inspires and fosters creativity and positive relationships between people around the world.(Roblox Reports November 2021 Key Metrics).Business ModelRoblox primarily earns revenue via the sale of their virtual currency, “Robux”, to users. Here is a quick breakdown of how Robux works from both the developer and user perspective:Developers create and publish games to the platform which either offer cosmetic items for sale within their game or have some aspect of a typical pay-to-play game, where users must pay to progress in their journey.Users of the game exchange real-world currencies for Robux and spend these Robux on such items/expansions.Roblox takes their cut of the transaction, pays the app stores, and gives the rest to the developers.The developers can exchange the Robux for real-world currencies.Investment ThesisRoblox is an attractive asset. There is significant long-term potential due to the following factors of their business model paired with the relatively attractive current entry point due to a non-fundamental pullback.It is a unique and large ecosystem with strong network effects.Disrupts the typical video game value chain turning users into creators and decentralizing production.Numerous growth avenues to expand the user base and monetizationOptionality beyond gaming and into the “metaverse” -- or virtual universeEcosystem, Network Effects, and the Roblox FlywheelRoblox has built a tremendous platform with over 150 million monthly active users (MAUs) and is the first choice of entertainment and social interaction for the entire generation of children and adolescents in North America and Europe. The sheer scale of users on Roblox spins their flywheel where the number of users attracts developers to design engaging content which in turn attracts more users and higher monetization potential. Below is an illustration of how this virtuous cycle works:Roblox Flywheel (Created by user)The installed base of users is sticky via both the inherently social nature of the platform and money spent on the platform to unlock games or outfit their avatars which disincentivizes exploring other platforms and reinforces the competitive moat. We can see this through their impressive daily active user growth.Roblox Daily Active Users (Roblox Investor Presentation)On the point of avatars, Roblox is centered around user identity via their created avatars. All users on Roblox have a unique identity that allows for individual expression and these avatars transcend any individual game as the user avatar is used across all games in the Roblox universe.Roblox Avatar Customization (Roblox)Decentralized Game and Experience ProductionAs previously mentioned, Roblox’s games and experiences are user-generated content (UGC). Roblox empowers its users to become developers/creators by providing them with the tools to do so through Roblox Studio and supporting the back-end on Roblox Cloud.In traditional video game production and R&D, the capital is spent upfront and costs can be exceptionally high (“AAA” games can cost $100M+, ex. Cyberpunk 2077 had a budget of $300M) and there is no certainty of success and constant unpredictability of community perception. For Roblox, they “outsource” their game production to millions of eager developers and pay for only successful content. Essentially, RBLX being based on UGC continuously feeds the platform while de-risking the development process and solving for launch risk and franchise fatigue that “AAA” games face.Examples of RBLX games:Adopt Me! (17bn visits), Tower of Hell (7bn visits), Welcome to Bloxburg (4bn visits).Growth Avenues Expanding User Base and Increasing MonetizationRoblox has grown tremendously and has a significant presence in their core market (8-12 yr olds in western markets). There are numerous levers to be pulled by management to continue top-line growth.Expand user base in international markets.Roblox is highly penetrated in western/English-speaking markets. International expansion has seen early indications of success (2-3x user growth in Japan and Korea). The Chinese market is not served by RBLX. Could represent 50-100m new MAUs via Tencent license.Increase appeal to older audiences.~50% of daily-active users are <12 y/o so there is significant upside in capturing older audiences. Continued investment in the platform and development of sophisticated games could attract this audience. There is early evidence of success as Roblox has improved its sophistication with the 13 and older audience growing at ~70% vs. 50% of the 13 and under audience on average over the last three years.Increase monetization.Increasing importance of digital identity should lead to increased spending. Working with developers to better monetize content for mutual benefit. Grow subscription offerings via Roblox premium. Roblox increasingly working with corporate sponsors to add branded content to the game (Nike, Gucci, LVMH, North Face/Vans, etc.). There is a significant incentive for consumer brands such as these to work with Roblox as the lifetime value of these young consumers is high. From Roblox’s November 2021 Investor Day, they explain how every company will have a Roblox strategy in the future.Expanded platform use and improved functionality.Continued expansion beyond gaming into social, entertainment, learning, e-commerce, and broadly more human co-experiences. An example would be the virtual concerts that are being held on the RBLX platform. Experiences become increasingly engaging and less distinguishable from real-world experiences (examples include: 3D spatial audio implementation, high fidelity avatars, etc.)The Leader in the Emerging “Metaverse”Roblox is a social destination. Players stay connected and share experiences with friends. Expanding these virtual experiences will reduce the traditional barriers between games, social entertainment, and commerce. The idea of a “metaverse” is not a new idea, but with powerful and accessible consumer devices, high-speed connections, and cloud computing the concept of the metaverse can be enabled by the right platform. As mentioned above, the continued improvement of the Roblox platform will bring engaging experiences that mirror real life.On the front of commerce, Roblox’s VP of Marketing explains how “whether you’re a sports franchise, a fashion brand, movie studio, or musical artist, there are endless possibilities for authentic and immersive experiences that bring your brand to life”.Evidence of Metaverse infancy can be seen in events like the Lil Nas X concert (33 million views), community events, and e-commerce and branding through Nikeland, Vans World, etc.Financials DiscussionRevenueRoblox Revenue (Roblox Investor Presentation)Roblox has experienced exceptional revenue growth, especially in the last couple of years. Revenue has been primarily driven by the increase in active users on the Roblox platform. Exceptional growth noted in Q2 2021 is very positive as this was our first attempt in North America to return to normalcy, but Roblox growth was sustained.It is important to call out RBLX’s unique approach to revenue recognition though.Bookings and Roblox Revenue RecognitionWhen money has been exchanged for Robux (RBLX virtual currency), that is recorded as “bookings”. Revenue is then recognized when the Robux is exchanged for virtual goods and depending on the type of virtual good, there is a different revenue recognition schedule. Items in the Roblox ecosystem can either be “durable”, think clothing for the avatar, or “consumable”, think temporary boosts, Durable items are recognized over a 24-month period whereas consumables are recognized as revenue as soon as they are purchased. ~90% of Robux spent on the platform is on “durable” goods, so 90% of Robux spent is recognized over a 24-month period. This is an important thing to note as we look at Roblox’s bookings, or total conversion of real money to Robux.Roblox Bookings (Roblox Investor Presentation)CostsCosts and expenses can be delineated into cost of revenue, which primarily consists of third-party payment processing fees, developer fees, which is the amount earned by developers and creators, personnel costs, infrastructure, trust, and safety costs in addition to other operating expenses which are primarily R&D and SG&A. The following is a breakdown of those costs as a % of revenue, of which we can see some scale taking place on some of the line items: G&A, S&M, infrastructure, and R&D.Roblox Costs (Roblox Filings)Free Cash FlowRBLX has greatly accelerated their free cash flow generation over the last two years. Free cash flow in the below table is fairly standard cash flow from operations minus capital expenditures and acquisition of intangible assets. It is positive to see the potential of RBLX’s free cash flow generation with an early indicator of success over the past 6-7 quarters.Roblox Free Cash Flow (Roblox Investor Presentation)Valuation ConsiderationsRoblox is not exceptionally cheap.

Rather, Roblox is a combination of gaming, socialization, and an outlet for creativity.

It helped drive record annual revenue retention of 94% in 2021, up from 93% in the prior year. It was also a key growth driver. The company ended the year with nearly 34,000 clients, up 9% compared to 2020. Meanwhile, revenue surged 29% year-over-year in the fourth quarter and 25.4% for the full year. Earnings grew even faster as its margin expanded despite aggressive spending to grow the business. The company delivered an adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) margin of 39.7% of its revenue in 2021, up from 39.3% in 2020.</p><p>Paycom is only scratching the surface of its potential. Richison noted on the call that &#34;we still only have approximately 5% of the TAM (total available market) today, so there&#39;s plenty of runway ahead to expand and continue to capture market share.&#34; It&#39;s investing heavily to continue taking more market share. It opened five new outside sales offices over the last five months (<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MHC.AU\">Manhattan</a>, Las Vegas, Jacksonville, New England, and South Jersey) -- bringing the total to 54 -- to expand its geographic reach. In addition, it has expanded the upper end of its target client size from those with up to 5,000 employees to those with upwards of 10,000 employees.</p><p>These catalysts have Paycom positioned to continue growing fast in 2022 and beyond. The cloud-based software company sees its revenue rising to more than $1.3 billion this year, putting it up nearly 25% from last year&#39;s total. Meanwhile, it sees a further improvement in its adjusted EBITDA margin to around 40% this year, suggesting continued strong profit growth.</p><h2>Lots of growth still ahead</h2><p>Paycom continues to disrupt the payroll industry by launching innovative software solutions that improve the process.
