PSA Enterprise Software / Telecom: Internet Initiative Japan (3774 JT) – Better Value, Better Growth
The potential of Internet Initiative Japan’s (3774 JT) business has meant that it has rarely been a “cheap” stock in terms of earnings multiples. However, even by its own standards, it did become expensive by the end of 2021, trading on 21x EV/OP. However now, a year of the shares trading sideways while earnings have doubled from FY20 levels means that EV/OP is now back below 16x. This makes the shares even cheaper than those of the more pedestrian TIS (3626 JT) (15.6x vs 16.2x).Internet Initiative Japan is engaged in the provision of a comprehensive range of Internet connectivity services, WAN services, outsourcing services, systems integration and equipment sales to Co.'s customers mainly in Japan. Co.'s principal services are full-spec IP service, closed-network services, security-related outsourcing services, web server hosting and e-mail security service, as well as systems construction and systems operation and maintenance. Co., through its subsidiary, is engaged in the operation of ATMs and its network systems and receives a commission for each bank withdrawal transaction when a customer uses its serviced ATMs. As of March 31, 2018, Co. has 1,096 ATMs.
