Tämä tietenkin paljon parempi uutinen (29.4.2024)

Jaahas heti kun kurssi hieman on alkanut nousemaan, niin johto sössii taas senkin massiivisella annilla ja vieläpä alemmalla hinnalla kuin mitä osake oli ennen nousun alkua. Todella taidokasta omistaja-arvon luontia :ok_hand. No jos yhtiö ostetaan pois, niin pääseepähän eroon mitättömäksi kutistuneesta (alunperinkin pienestä) positiosta ilman välityskuluja.

En tiedä jos kuvailisin yhtiön toimia sössimisenä, vaikka ZignSecin kurssi onkin valunut kupla-tasoilta alas alelaariin.
Luulen, että osakekurssi on viime aikoina herännyt henkiin yhtiön uuden investor relations -strategian ansiosta (hyvistä uutisista on tiedoitettu ja toimitusjohtaja avasi näkymiä julkisesti). Todennäköisesti tieto PJT:n kiinnostuksesta ja uudesta annista oli myös vuotanut markkinoille (viime aikojen isoja blokkeja on vaikea selittää millään muulla).
Nyt yhtiöllä on kuitenkin loistava paikka tehdä pitkä-aikaisille omistajille tuottoa. Jotta yritys voidaan myydä hyvään hintaan sen kassassa on oltava vähintään 12kk burnia vastaavat kassavarat, eli on omistajien etu osallistua. Kyseinen anti on osa isompaa suunnitelmaa ja veikkaan, että se maksaa itsensä takaisin hyvin nopeasti.
Annin hinta heijastaa alkuvuoden osakekurssia, koska sitä on varmasti valmisteltu jo kuukausia. Hinnalla ei tietenkään ole merkitystä jos osallistuu antiin - päinvastoin, omistusosuus saattaa jopa kasvaa jos merkintäoikeuksia jää käyttämättä! Itse olen täysillä mukana.
Huom. PJT Partners oli aikaisemmin osa Blackstonea. Tuskin he käyttäisivät aikaa ZignSecin kokoiseen yhtiöön elleivät näkisi siinä merkittävää potentiaalia.

Olipas vuosikertomus surullista luettavaa. 85MSEK liikevaihdolla 98MSEK tappio.
Mistä se koostuu? Palkkakulut vähenivät, kun työntekjiät vähenivät. Ulkoiset kulut pienenivät hieman, kun luultavasti pilvipalveluiden (käyttöön perustuvat) kulut pienenivät. Loogista. Silmään pisti Aineettomat ja aineelliset poistot.
Mistä ne koostuvat? Tämä ei ole välttämättä (tai yleensä) tililtä lähtevää kulua, vaan poistot, joita voidaan laskea vuosittain kuluna taseeseen pienentämään mahdollisia veroja. Tässä on laskettu hankittujen assettien nopeita 3-5 vuoden kestäviä poistoja.
Vuoden lopussa käteinen ja käteiseksi laskettavat varat ovat n. 2kk kuluja vastaavan verran. Huh.
Sivulta 39 löytyy kirsikka. Vai ehkä sitruuna?

Voiko firma selvitä tästä? Voi, mutta Houdini saa olla. Tesla teki sen 2008, mutta onko Zignsec Tesla? Päivän droppaus oli mielestäni armollinen. Vain samaan kuin 5 vuorokautta sitten.
Itselläni on muutaman tuhannen euron alkuperäinen panos (muutama satanen nyt). En lisää, mutta pidän sen lottona. Olen myös ostanut illalle Eurojackpotin rivin. Katsotaan, josko jompi kumpi kantaa hedelmää.

Pelkästään yrityskauppojen goodwill alaskirjaukset ovat 50MSEK vuodessa, joten aika mahdotonta saada 98MSEK liikevaihdolla firmaa kannattavaksi. Alaskirjauksilla ei kuitenkana ole mitään tekemistä todellisuuden kanssa, koska alaskirjaukset on pakko tehdä siitä huolimatta, että ostettujen liiketoimien arvo olisi pysynyt ennallaan. Kaikki tiedot löytyvät kyllä raportista.
Sivulla 39 on ehdottomasti kirsikka, mutta olisi mielestäni tyhmää olla merkitsemättä osakkeita annissa kun edessä on muuten 63% diluutio. Itse asiassa, jos tappiosi ovat noin isot niin kannattaisi varmaan toissijaisessa merkinnässä yrittää napata mahdollisimman paljon osakkeita 0.25 SEK (alennus)hintaan. Uskon, että moni ajattelee kuin sinä, eikä käytä merkintäoikeuksiaan.

Ei liikearvoa poisteta, vaan sille suoritetaan vuosittain arvonalentumistestaus, joten jos joku ostettu business menisi hyvin, niin ei noita “poistoja”/arvonalentumisia silloin olisi tarpeen kirjata. Usein nuo kirjataan muutenkin liian myöhään ja alkuun arvenalentumistestauksissa on usein käytössä ns. lätkämaila-malli, jossa se ostettu liiketoiminta on ihan just lähdössä lentoon ja tosi kannattavana. Jossain vaiheessa sitten pakko todeta, että ei tästä mitään tule ja kirjataan koko roska alas.
“The annual reports and the consolidated financial statements are prepared in compliance with Årsredovisningslagen (1995:1554) and BFNAR 2012:1 Årsredovisning och koncernredovisning (K3).”
Sinä viittaat nyt IFRS käytäntöihin? ZignSec noudattaa eri kirjanpitokäytäntöjä. Goodwill poistetaan 5 vuodessa tasapoistoilla.

Kappas, oletin että soveltaisivat IFRS:ää, mutta perutaanpas sitten äskeinen. Saisi omasta mielestä IFRS:äänkin tulla säännös, jonka mukaan liikearvo pitäisi poistaa esimerkiksi enintään 10 vuodessa.

Hi.com tuntuu olevan ihan vakavasti otettava asiakkuus. 120 työntekijää ja yli USD 30m rahoitusta. Yksi perustajista näköjään BasisID:n entinen työntekijä.
Vaikea sanoa, onko tuo hyvä vai huono asia pitkällä tähtäimellä. Näistä Kryptopuljuista on monella krapula ja Sam poikakin sai 25 v tuomion FTX veivauksesta. Näiden kanssa täytyy pitää varansa, tai voi polttaa näppinsä, maineensa ja säästönsä. Toivottavasti Zignsecin diili ei sisällä Tecnotreen kaltaisia 200+ päivän maksuaikoja…
