Core business restructuring starts to pay off

eServGlobal reported FY16 results in line with its recent trading update. The turnaround in the core business is evident with H216 revenues 58% higher than in H116 and adjusted EBITDA losses significantly reducing over H216. Continued contract momentum combined with good cost control puts the company on track to generate positive EBITDA for FY17. At the same time, the HomeSend joint venture expects to see revenue contributions from new partners coming on line and continues to target break-even in CY17.

eServGlobal - Break-even target reiterated

eServGlobalâ€™s H118 results confirm it has reduced its cost base further and is still targeting EBITDA break-even for FY18. It also noted it is having conversations with interested parties relating to the disposal of its core business. This would leave the company holding its 35.7% stake in the HomeSend joint venture, which we estimate makes up most of the current valuation.

eServGlobal - FY18 core business outlook maintained

eServGlobal released a positive H118 trading update indicating that core business orders were ahead of internal forecasts and reiterated its target of achieving EBITDA break-even for the full year. With H1 revenue guidance of â‚¬3.6m/A$5.7m, the majority of these bookings will be recognised in H2, indicating a heavy H2 weighting for the year (c 70%). HomeSend continues to expand rapidly (59% top-line growth), and remains the key value driver for the stock. We leave our forecasts unchanged at this stage; H118 results are due by the end of August.

eServGlobal - Banking on HomeSend

eServGlobal enters FY18 with a reduced cost base and a fully funded balance sheet; we are forecasting the core business to be close to EBITDA break-even in FY18. With access to Mastercardâ€™s sales force and financial institution customer base, HomeSend has signed up a number of banks to use its cross-border payment platform. As these banks shift volumes onto the platform, this should drive strong growth in volumes and move the joint venture towards profitability.

Basilea Pharmaceutica - Cresemba milestone payments continue to roll in

Basilea Pharmaceutica has announced the triggering of a US$1.25m milestone payment from Pfizer, triggered by sustained strong sales of Cresemba in the Asia-Pacific region and China. This is the second FY24 milestone payment for the region and is incremental to the payment received in March. We note that, according to the latest available data, total in-market sales of Cresemba amounted to US$473m in the 12 months ending December 2023, representing a +26% year-on-year increase. Basilea is preparing to launch its Phase III programme for fosmanogepix, a broad-spectrum antifungal therapy, with the...

AAC Clyde Space - Solid start to the year with further order growth

AAC Clyde Space offers exposure to the fast-growing low Earth orbit space market. A solid start to the year and continued order momentum are encouraging. We also note the internal restructuring to promote delivery of the group’s products and services. We expect this combination to drive an improving performance, albeit within the lumpy nature of the business, in turn improving investor confidence and the stock’s valuation.
