FQ3/2021 QUARTERLY HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Revenue down 20% Y/Y as COVID-19 sales bump eases. Moovly’s sales for the three months ended June 30, 2021, were $0.30 million, a decrease of 20%, compared to $0.37 million in the same quarter a year ago, and lower than our estimate of $0.70 million.
  • Sales & Marketing efforts directed towards larger companies, education groups, and strategic partnerships. Expenses in the quarter were almost double that of FQ3/2020 as the Company directed recently raised funds into Sales & Marketing efforts to target larger customers.
  • Strategic partnerships are key to driving revenue higher. Enterprise client revenue represents the largest revenue opportunity. We are waiting for an announcement that would show the sales potential as we estimate one Enterprise customer could increase revenue by $1.1 million annually.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS & VALUATION:

  • Due to the slower revenue growth than we estimated, we are substantially lowering our revenue growth assumptions and also dropping the EV/Revenue multiple to 20.0x from 40.0x when we calculate the target price based on the one-year forward Revenue.
  • The revised Revenue estimates are:
    • F2021E: Revenue $1.5 million, down from $2.5 million;
    • F2022E: Revenue $3.0 million, down from $8.0 million;
    • F2023E: Revenue $6.0 million, down from $12.0 million.
  • We calculate an equal-weighted price per share of $0.75 from a multiple of 20x the one-year forward Revenue of $2.6 million and a DCF from a multiple of 30x the five-year forward terminal EBITDA of $11.4 million at a 12% discount rate.

We are lowering our Target Price to $0.75 from $1.40 and changing our rating to Speculative Buy from Buy.
