Source: Shutterstock Key Insights Paymentus Holdings’ estimated fair value is US$15.3 based on 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity Current share price of US$8.6 suggests Paymentus Holdings is 44% undervalued In this article we are going to estimate the intrinsic value of Paymentus Holdings, Inc. ( NYSE:PAY ) by taking the expected future cash flows and discounting them to their present value. We will take advantage of the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model for this purpose. Models like these may appear beyond the comprehension of a lay person, but they’re fairly easy to follow. Remember though, that there are many ways to estimate a company’s value, and a DCF is just one method. If you still have some burning questions about this type of valuation, take a look at the Simply Wall St analysis model . The Method We’re using the 2-stage growth model, which simply means we take in account two stages of company’s growth. In the initial period the company may have a higher growth rate and the second stage is usually assumed to have a stable growth rate. To begin with, we have to get estimates of the next ten years of cash flows. Where […]

Chalk one up for the educated workforce. EAD Engineering , the Omaha, Nebraska-based firm that chose New Jersey when it announced its expansion last fall, said New Jersey does more than just provide a Northeast footprint — it allows the firm to expand its talent level. So said Ryan Sheehy, the business development manager of the office. “Our location in this state provides an opportunity to attract the best and brightest talent in the industry, which enables us to service our clients at the highest level,” he said. The global engineering consulting and project management company — which also has offices in Cary, North Carolina, and Memphis, Tennessee — picked New Jersey after it conducted extensive research, which included evaluating several other cities within the U.S. prior to selecting Parsippany as the site of its new office. Sally White, the managing director of EAD’s northeastern U.S. regional business, said the firm weighted the selection for its investment with a focus on what the prospective cities offered in terms of opportunity to scale, local talent, proximity to educational institutions, opportunity for future client investments and quality of life for EAD employees. EAD concluded that New Jersey was able to meet […]

welcomeinside/iStock via Getty Images Investment thesis After qualifying Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG ) (NASDAQ: GOOGL ) as a long-term investment opportunity based on my in-depth fundamental analysis , I want to discuss the stock from a technical perspective. The stock has lost 45% since the beginning of its decline and is priced under its most important moving averages, facing significant overhead resistance, while the stock is still not building relative strength, despite the relevant industry group giving more positive signs. In this article, I explain an actionable trading opportunity in the short-to-medium term. I discuss two positive and one negative scenarios based on a contingency plan with multiple outcomes, while I always examine the downside risk, by considering appropriate stop-loss levels and actively managing the risk exposure.

Despite companies in the communication services sector performing slightly better in the past month, technology companies are still struggling to recover from the recent sell-off.

Subject: Focusing on our short- and long-term opportunity We’re living through times of significant change, and as I meet with customers and partners, a few things are clear. First, as we saw customers accelerate their digital spend during the pandemic, we’re now seeing them optimize their digital spend to do more with less. We’re also seeing organizations in every industry and geography exercise caution as some parts of the world are in a recession and other parts are anticipating one. At the same time, the next major wave of computing is being born with advances in AI, as we’re turning the world’s most advanced models into a new computing platform. This is the context in which we as a company must strive to deliver results on an ongoing basis, while investing in our long-term opportunity. I’m confident that Microsoft will emerge from this stronger and more competitive, but it requires us to take actions grounded in three priorities. First, we will align our cost structure with our revenue and where we see customer demand. Today, we are making changes that will result in the reduction of our overall workforce by 10,000 jobs through the end of FY23 Q3. This […]

Global payments trends in 2023 are set to be shaped by the significant macroeconomic challenges … [+] getty These are challenging times for the global economy, and for global payments this is manifesting as significant change in many aspects of the industry. The convergence of upended supply chains, an economic and stock market downturn and the aftermath of Covid-19 is causing many companies, across a wide variety of industries, to change how they are working – including how they engage with global payments. Global payments will change in 2023, and while for some this is likely to be a tough year, it represents a significant opportunity. With this in mind, here’s some of the biggest factors shaping global payments this year – and how they play into ongoing shifts in the industry. Changing global trade, shifting supply chains and B2B payments consolidation The macroeconomic conditions of 2022, and in particular Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, have transformed global supply chains and therefore significantly impacted the shape of global trade, with further changes expected in 2023. Although complete trade data is not yet available for all of 2022, early signs indicate that change is afoot. OECD data for the G20 showed […]

The ‘circular economy’ has become one of the most used phrases in business. It refers to all the work involved in recycling, reducing waste and creating new sustainable jobs. The World Economic Forum cites figures from the consultancy firm Accenture, which says the job of introducing such changes could represent a market worth €4.1 trillion between now and 2030. The International Labour Office estimates that transitioning to a circular economy could create six million jobs worldwide as companies get to grips with replacing traditional ways of making money by “extracting, making, using and disposing”. Circularity also brings with it the promise of efficiency. Accenture, predicts that car makers taking a circular approach to manufacturing could enjoy a 150% boost in profits. So does the reality justify the buzz? In this edition of The Exchange we talk to the people and players who believe the circular economy is a way to create sustainable growth and also generate profit.
