We may also use a portion of the net proceeds for the acquisition of, or investment in, technologies, solutions, or businesses that complement our business. However, we do not have agreements or commitments for any acquisitions or investments outside the ordinary course of business at this time.\n\n\n (Source)\n\nManagement’s presentation of the company roadshow isavailable here.\nRegarding outstanding legal proceedings, management said the firm is not party to any legal or regulatory proceedings that would be material to its operations or financial condition.\nListed bookrunners of the IPO are Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, and other investment banks.\nValuation Metrics\nBelow is a table of the firm’s relevant capitalization and valuation metrics at IPO, excluding the effects of underwriter options:\nAs a reference, a potential partial public comparable would be PayPal (PYPL); shown below is a comparison of their primary valuation metrics:\n\nCommentary\nRELY is seeking to go public in the U.S. to provide capital for its corporate expansion plans.\nThe firm’s financials show strong top line revenue growth, reduced operating losses, and lowered negative operating margin and growing cash flow from operations.\nFree cash flow for the twelve months ended June 30, 2021, was negative ($10.6 million).\nMarketing expenses as a percentage of total revenue have dropped as revenue has increased and its Marketing efficiency rate grew to 1.9x in the most recent report period.\nThe market opportunity for providing cross-border remittance services is very large and expected to grow as immigration continues to rise and businesses produce more goods for export.\nGoldman Sachs is the lead left underwriter and IPOs led by the firm over the last 12-month period have generated an average return of 39.5% since their IPO. This is a mid-tier performance for all major underwriters during the period.\nThe primary risk to the company’s outlook is increased competition from cryptocurrency networks, although these networks have their own adoption hurdles and are still nascent.\nAs for valuation, compared to PayPal, the firm’s revenue multiple expectation is higher, but RELY is also growing top line revenue at a much higher rate, although on a lower revenue base than PayPal.\nRELY is clearly a fast-growing company that is approaching operating breakeven. However, the firm faces competition from fast-growing cryptocurrency networks which are making inroads into the traditional payment rails by companies such as Remitly.\nI’m impressed by the firm’s growth but concerned as to whether that growth can continue at its present rate.\nRELY is probably a fine investment opportunity, but I'll watch the IPO from the sidelines.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":218,"commentLimit":10,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"symbols":[],"verified":2,"subType":0,"readableState":1,"langContent":"EN","currentLanguage":"EN","warmUpFlag":false,"orderFlag":false,"shareable":true,"causeOfNotShareable":"","featuresForAnalytics":[],"commentAndTweetFlag":false,"andRepostAutoSelectedFlag":false,"upFlag":false,"length":4,"xxTargetLangEnum":"ORIG"},"commentList":[],"hasMoreComment":false,"orderType":2}
