CEO Of Fast-Growing Company Says Hard Work Isn’t Enough
Rohit Kapoor, CEO of ExlService, cofounded the firm after losing his job as a banker. (ExlService) Hard work is part of it. But winning and being successful is also about outsmarting the competition , says Rohit Kapoor, CEO of analytics and digital solutions company ExlService ( EXLS ). Playing smart is Kapoor’s winning formula. It’s been that way since his days as a squash player growing up in India. Kapoor, 57, says he was a skinny kid lacking in athletic muscle. But he was also competitive. "I like to win," he told Investor’s Business Daily. He knew he couldn’t beat bigger, stronger, faster, and more-skilled squash players. (Despite practicing three hours a day.) Instead, he fashioned a winning game plan that neutralized his opponents’ athletic edge. His strategy? Win points without having to engage in long, multi-shot rallies. "I taught myself to serve in a way that I would win the point automatically," Kapoor said. Apply Life Lessons To Business Since founding ExlService in 1999, Kapoor has used the work smart formula to fuel growth. "That’s something I still practice," Kapoor said. "We’ve chosen very carefully the types of businesses that we want to play, where we can create […]

MicroStrategy’s Software Business Turns Profitable As Bitcoin Stash Appreciates
MSTR Earnings Outlook SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty Images MicroStrategy MSTR +9% , the bitcoin investment vehicle attached to a business-software company, is likely to report its first quarterly profit in two years in results expected this afternoon as its business improves and the value of its crypto hoard rises. Steady progress in its business-analytics division, which is seeking to transition customers to recurring, internet-based subscriptions–known as the software-as-a-service model–from on-premise licensed programs, should give a lift to results, according to Joe Vafi, a managing director at Canaccord Genuity. Although the business is relatively mature, it is “very sticky with good margins,” he adds. Even though Q4 revenue is expected to fall about 3% to $130 million, according to consensus data compiled by FactSet, the company is on track to report net income of $10.7 million after losing $90 million a year earlier. The last time it eked out a profit was the final quarter of 2020, when it earned $2.7 million. On the adjusted basis used by Wall Street analysts, MicroStrategy is expected to earn 98.3 cents a share, Bloomberg data show. As far as investors are concerned, the software business plays second fiddle to the company’s bitcoin strategy, […]
Improved Planning Could Help Treasury Limit Additional Delays
Fast Facts Treasury’s State Small Business Credit Initiative is authorized to provide $10 billion to states, territories, and tribal governments to support small business lending and investment programs. All 50 states, five territories, the District of Columbia, and 283 tribal governments have applied for these funds. However, Treasury is taking longer than expected to review applications and disburse funds. We found that it could improve how it plans these and other program activities—such as identifying interim steps and staff responsible for each activity. We recommended doing so, which could help Treasury ensure timely disbursement of these funds. Highlights What GAO Found The State Small Business Credit Initiative (SSBCI) provides funds to eligible jurisdictions—states, territories, the District of Columbia, and tribal governments—to support small business lending and investment programs through its capital program. Eligible jurisdictions also can apply for technical assistance funding (such as for legal, accounting, and financial advisory services) to support certain businesses that apply to an SSBCI program or another government small business program. The Department of the Treasury, which administers SSBCI, extended application deadlines for the capital and technical assistance programs multiple times (see figure). All 50 states, five territories, and the District of Columbia submitted […]
Penn’s sports betting business posts head-turning fourth quarter profit

In this photo illustration, the Penn Entertainment logo is displayed on a smartphone mobile screen. Rafael Henrique | SOPA Images | Lightrocket | Getty Images Penn Entertainment on Thursday became the first U.S. gambling company to post a profit in its sports betting business during the final three months of a year. Usually, it’s tougher to turn a sportsbook profit during the third and fourth quarters because companies spend more on marketing and promotions during football season. Penn’s interactive business, which also includes online casino games, made a $5.2 million profit on $208 million in revenue during the fourth quarter of 2022. The performance helped lift the company’s overall revenue for the period by nearly 1% to $1.6 billion. The profit in sports betting came even in spite of a highly publicized $10 million bet Jim “Mattress Mack” McIngvale placed – and won – on the Houston Astros winning the World Series in November. Caesars also took a hit from Mattress Mack’s baseball bet, which blocked its own ability to turn a profit in sports betting in the fourth quarter, according […]

Amazon stock drops after revenue beat, EPS miss
Amazon’s ( AMZN ) Q4 2022 earnings report, released on Feb. 2, featured mixed results. The company clocked a revenue beat, but missed both EPS and Q1 guidance estimates. The e-commerce giant’s shares are down about 3% in after-hours trading. What follows are some key numbers from the report, as compared to analysts’ expectations compiled by Bloomberg. Q4 Net Sales : $149.2 billion actual versus $145.8 billion expected Q4 Online Stores Net Sales: $64.5 billion actual versus $65.03 billion expected Q4 Physical Stores Net Sales: $4.95 billion actual versus $4.93 billion expected Q4 Earnings Per Share (EPS): 3 cents actual versus 17 cents expected Q4 Amazon Web Services (AWS) Net Sales: $21.3 billion actual versus $21.76 billion expected Q4 Operating Income: $2.7 billion billion actual versus $2.51 billion expected That miss on AWS sales is especially a blow for Amazon, as its cloud division has long thrived as a stalwart of the company’s business. However, the cloud miss perhaps shouldn’t be a surprise – last week, Microsoft ( MSFT ) warned in its earnings call that cloud growth deceleration was on the horizon. Further, in 2022 overall, Amazon reported a net loss of $2.7 billion, tying off a tough […]
