What can we expect from Bigtincan in its quarterly update?
Even though it was a robust performance from Bigtincan in 2021, including a 218% increase in cash receipts in October, this didn't inflect positively on its share price – particularly in the back end of the year.
Shares ran down from a 52-week high of $1.47 in August and haven't slowed down since, having closed less than 1% in the green yesterday at 93 cents.
During its last quarterly update, the company grew total customer cash receipts by 218% to $14.4 million year over year (YoY).
Cash operating payments were also up 67% to $19.3 million YoY whereas it reported a 48% increase in annualised recurring revenue (ARR) to $53.1 million in FY21.
Probably the most interesting component of Bigtincan's upcoming earnings release – especially for those investors familiar with the Bigtincan growth narrative to date – is commentary on how the Brainshark acquisition has synergised since completion.
Management had forecasted a 124% accretion to recurring income from the combined sources and estimate $119 million in ARR for FY22 following the acquisition.
Morgan Stanley notes these elements in their valuation of the company. The broker is constructive on Bigtincan and reckons it's a buy right now, valuing the tech player at $2.10 per share.
With that kind of upside margin, the broker has big expectations for Bigtincan these coming 12-24 months.
The consensus of analyst estimates also has Bigtincan to report around $54 million in revenue for 1H FY22 and $58 million for the second half.
This is expected to carry through to gross profit of $45.6 million, which is a substantial jump of 116% on the last half, according to this consensus view. We will see how on track Bigtincan is in hitting these targets later this month.
