About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Summary:

·       4Q21 results reported Wednesday (3/30) but the results were not meaningful given product launches and recent acquisitions. The company also filed its 10-K.

·       Leflair, an online seller of luxury goods, was relaunched in September 2021 in Vietnam and was the main revenue contributor.

·       Maxim maintains estimates, which incorporate two recent acquisitions providing online grocery and restaurant delivery in Vietnam and the Philippines.

·       The company ended 2021 with $23M cash and no debt. With proceeds from an IPO and secondary offering, Maxim estimates cash of $33M.

4Q21 results highlight early stages of building a Southeast Asian ecommerce company. Society Pass is in the early stages of building an online company. Maxim has a positive view on this market given faster-than-expected growth rates, increasing mobile and ecommerce penetration, younger populations, and the opportunity to consolidate smaller companies. In 4Q21, most of the company's revenue came from the online ordering segment, which generated $0.4M in revenue for the quarter and $0.5M for the year.

Sufficient cash. The company ended 2021 with $23M in cash and no debt. Cash included the net $25M raise from the company's November 2021 IPO. Including $10.7M net from a February 2022 raise, Maxim estimates current cash of ~$33M, which in Maxim’s view should be sufficient to fund organic growth over the next two years.

Acquisitions. A key component of the company's strategy revolves around strategic acquisitions in key verticals.

· Pushkart – acquired 2/14/22, is a fast growing grocery delivery service in the Philippines with 125K registered users. SOPA plans to expand the service into 19 cities and increase the registered user base to 300K total by the end of 2022. The company reported $650K of revenue in 2021.

· Handycart – acquired 2/25/22, is an online food delivery business based in Hanoi, Vietnam. The company currently has about 40 restaurants, mainly centered around Korean cuisine, registered on its platform. In 2022, SOPA plans to expand the offering into Ho Chi Minh City and bring the number of restaurants on the platform to 500, with the addition of Japanese and Chinese cuisines.

Maxim projects significant revenue growth for the next two years. Maxim also expects growth from the expansion of Leflair and the launch of Loyalty Points in mid-2022. Maxim also factors Pushkart.ph and Handycart, primarily starting in 2Q22. Maxim maintains estimates for revenue to increase from $0.5M in 2021, to $14.5M in 2022, to $38.2M in 2023. Maxim also anticipates the company will be aggressive in M&A, which will likely provide upside to Maxim’s estimates.

Compelling valuation. SoPa trades at an EV/revenue multiple of 1x Maxim’s 2023 revenue estimate. Maxim’s $9 PT is based on Maxim’s 10-year DCF analysis in which Maxim utilizes a 20% discount rate, 15x terminal multiple, and a 3% terminal growth rate. Maxim’s $9 PT equates to 4.5x Maxim’s 2023 revenue estimate, a premium to the peer group average of 3.1x. The premium is warranted, in Maxim’s view, due to the higher expected growth rate.
