Summary Points:

– Positive view of early stages of building SEA ecommerce company. Luxury store, Leflair provides luxury goods online. Additional businesses include online delivery companies Handycart and Pushkart (bought during 1Q22), as well as Gorilla Networks, a telecom MVNO (early June 2022). During 3Q22 the company acquired Thoughtful Media, a digital influencer, Mangan.ph, restaurant delivery, and NusaTrip, an online travel agency. SoPa will launch a loyalty points offering. Maxim believes Thoughtful Media can market SoPa's other brands and the food delivery and luxury brand businesses can be expanded geographically. Maxim has a positive view on the SE Asian market due to increasing mobile and ecommerce penetration, younger populations, travel coming back, and the opportunity to consolidate smaller companies.

– Significant year on year revenue growth in 3Q 2022. 3Q22 revenue of $2.1M increased significantly from $84K in the prior year quarter. Digital marketing accounted for over half of the quarter's revenue. Results were also held back as most of its businesses were very early stage. The company is in the process of restructuring several of its businesses to improve revenue and profitability.

– Healthy balance sheet and cash levels. The company ended September 2022 with $23M in unrestricted cash and no debt. Maxim projects current cash levels as sufficient to fund organic growth over the next two years.

– Challenging macro environment, yet positive on micro company business plan. Maxim factors in a more challenging macro environment impacting Society Pass' end markets and notes that Sea Ltd (SE – NR), SE Asia's largest internet company, has laid off 10% of staff in past 6 months and during its 3Q22 conference call projected lower than expected bookings for 2022. Maxim still expects SE Asia to be one of the fastest relative growth markets and anticipates SOPA to grow from spending on marketing, expansions, the launch of loyalty points in 4Q22, and contributions from all announced acquisitions. Maxim believes many of the businesses can be expanded geographically and benefit from greater capital.

– Strong revenue generation in 2023. Maxim projects revenue to increase from $0.5M in 2021, to $7.0M in 2022, and $40.1M in 2023. The increase is due to the significant expected contribution from acquisitions and organic growth. Maxim projects 2022 adjusted EBITDA loss to widen to ($20.7M), from a loss of ($4.9M) in 2021. The wider loss is due to one time costs related to acquisitions and higher public company expenses. For 2023, Maxim projects EBITDA loss estimate to ($11.0M).

– Compelling valuation. – SOPA trades at an EV/revenue multiple of 0.5x Maxim 2023 revenue estimate with over half of its market cap in cash. Maxim $5 price target is supported by our 10-year DCF analysis, which utilizes a 22% discount rate, 15x terminal multiple, and 3% terminal growth rate and equates to an EV/revenue multiple of 2.5x. The 2.5x multiple target is roughly inline with the peer group average of 2.4x. Our positive outlook is supported by the attractive SE Asian markets and opportunities to consolidate smaller companies. Maxim reiterates Buy rating.

BUSINESS REVIEW

Office Software and Services
For the third quarter of 2022, revenue from the office software and services business increased 25% year-on-year and 9% quarter-on-quarter to RMB1,004.7 million. The year-on-year increase was mainly due to the continued growth of Kingsoft Office Group's individual and institutional subscription businesses.

In the third quarter, with a growing individual user base, Kingsoft Office Group strived to increase user engagement and stickiness and the proportion of long-term paying users by enhancing cloud services, enriching product portfolio and improving user experience. Kingsoft Office Group has dedicated itself to improving application performance for the government and enterprise subscription business by working on user efficiency, data management, information security and industry application scenarios in order to cater to the need of users which has led to a growing penetration of the enterprise-level product, Kingsoft Digital Office Platform. As for the institutional licensing business, our products continued to gain acceptance by increasing demand for domestic office software from government and enterprises, partially offset the high base for the same period last year and slower localization progress this year. Recently, we launched the official document version of WPS for the government users. Developed upon the professional version of WPS, it offers industry-leading functions such as official document work mode, a variety of official document templates, and document conversion to optimize document work efficiency of government users.

Online Games and Others
Revenue from the online games and others business for the third quarter of 2022 increased 18% year-on-year to RMB832.4 million. The year-on-year increase was mainly due to the successful launch of several mobile games in the fourth quarter of 2021.

During the review period, we continued to refine the core IP, enrich the content and enhance product quality through technological innovation aiming to bring players a better gaming experience. We celebrated the 13th anniversary of the flagship JX Online III PC game in August and launched Heng Dao Duan Lang, the anniversary expansion pack and a new section Dao Zong for the JX Online III PC game in October. The third season of JX Online III: Chivalrous Shen Jianxin, an animation series based on the JX Online III was released on Bilibili in July and was welcomed by gamers. The rating of the animation series on Bilibili reached a record high and the influence of JX IP has been further enhanced. In August, we launched the open beta across all platforms and a new expansion pack for JX World III in China. The launch has further enhanced user engagement and reached a broader player base laying a solid foundation for our long-term development."

Mr. Jun LEI concluded, "Looking ahead, we will maintain our investment in R&D, further enhance the user experience for our 'cloud and collaboration' office services and expand new game genres. We will continue to focus on technology innovation and product upgrades and enhance competitiveness and efficiency, aiming for the long-term sustainable development of the Group."

Trintech Celebrates the 10-Year Anniversary of Cadency(R) by Trintech

DALLAS, TX, Nov 11, 2022 – (ACN Newswire) – "The Avengers(TM)" came together in 2012 and have defeated numerous villains over the last 10 years. Similarly, Trintech's finance and technology experts also came together in 2012 to launch Cadency(R) – the world's first end-to-end Record to Report SaaS solution transforming the way enterprise finance and accounting professionals around the world close their books. Since then, Trintech has been laser-focused on continuing to help the Superheroes of Finance and Accounting defeat manual work by standardizing, streamlining, and automating their financial close processes.

"The Office of the CFO has evolved considerably over the last ten years, with CFOs serving as key superheroes within their organizations. Today, we celebrate the 10-year anniversary of Cadency and the role it has played in helping global organizations vanquish compliance headaches, rescue un-reconciled balance sheets, and bring peace to the world of transaction matching," said Teresa Mackintosh, CEO of Trintech. "The last three years have asked even more from the Office of Finance, as the pandemic introduced new challenges and increased expectations to conquer. CFOs need to be more agile than ever before and have accurate and accessible data available at any given moment, making solutions like Cadency a must-have in their Superhero toolbelt."

Over the last decade, Cadency(R) has helped organizations around the globe streamline and automate the entire Record to Report process in a standardized control framework. To celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the Cadency launch and the release of Cadency 10.3 this week, Trintech has put together a look at how the heroes of Marvel and the heroes of Finance and Accounting have tallied up some impressive stats over the last ten years:

– Following the successful roll-out of Cadency, Serco now has a centralized global solution that provides greater insight into the total number of reconciliations performed as well as their timeliness and accuracy. Today, Serco is running 5,000 balance sheet reconciliations through Cadency on a monthly basis. In addition, they are auto-reconciling 15,000 accounts which has saved their team a total of 500 hours per month. That's enough time to watch the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe (3,831 minutes of film) over the course of eight months!

– Over 10,000 crew members are listed in the credits of Avengers: Infinity War(TM). That's a huge number, but did you know that Boston Scientific Corporation currently has 29,000+ accounts housed within Cadency, with more than 4,400 of those accounts set to auto-reconcile each month? Additionally, BSC has experienced increased productivity and time savings, greater visibility and standardization across their balance sheet reconciliation and previously manual Journal Entry processes. The automation features inside Cadency have increased their efficiency, as well in areas such as SOX sampling and testing.

– As the Avengers showed us, the best teams need to grow. While they started as a group of six superheroes in 2012, it took over 30 heroes to take down Thanos in Avengers: Endgame(TM). LKQ Corporation, a leading global distributor of vehicle parts and accessories, implemented Trintech's Cadency solution and successfully conducted 130 acquisitions from 2003-2019, growing 38 times their original size with no additional headcount increase to their F&A team. In addition, they were able to reduce their close to six and a half business days, reduce their cash specialist headcount by nearly 50%, and achieve nearly 90% auto-reconciliation.

Trintech Client Serco Named Winner in 15th Annual Ventana Research Digital Leadership Awards

DALLAS, TX, Nov 3, 2022 – (ACN Newswire) – Trintech, a leading global provider of cloud-based financial close solutions for the Office of Finance, announced today that its customer, Serco, a leading provider of professional, technology, engineering and management services, has been named the winner in the "Office of Finance" category of the 15th annual Ventana Research Digital Leadership Awards. Serco's win is attributed to its innovative use of Trintech's Cadency Platform to standardize and automate its reconciliation and financial close processes.

"We want to congratulate Serco for its use of Trintech's solution in applying automation in its accounting close to speed processes in a complex business, enable staff to focus more of their time on high-value efforts and promote greater confidence in the integrity of its financial statements," remarked Robert Kugel, Senior Vice President and Research Director at Ventana Research.

Following the successful roll-out of Cadency, Serco has achieved a single, standardized approach to balance sheet management on a global scale. Reconciliations now require less manual effort thanks to increased automation and the application of a risk-based strategy. In addition, the use of a centralized global solution has provided greater insight into the total number of reconciliations performed as well as their timeliness and accuracy.

"I am honored to accept this award on behalf of the Project Team who implemented Cadency and the BAU team who continues to use and promote continuous improvement within our reconciliation process," said Paul Adams, Head of New Business & R2R at Serco. "The transformative success our team has been able to achieve with Trintech's Cadency solution has been remarkable and we look forward to additional successes as we continue our financial transformation journey with Trintech."

Automation has not only reduced Serco's cost but also allows their team to focus on more value-added tasks. "Competition for talent is a big focus and challenge for many organizations today," continued Adams. "Automation can help retain your resources by allowing them to focus on value-added tasks instead of the manual, transactional processes."

Today, Serco is running 5,000 balance sheet reconciliations through Cadency on a monthly basis. In addition, they are auto-reconciling 15,000 accounts which has saved their team a total of 500 hours per month. To gain even further efficiencies, Serco also utilizes Trintech's pre-built Cadency SAP(R)-Certified Connector. "This connector automatically interfaces data flows from our SAP instance into Cadency so our team can begin analyzing it within minutes. Having the direct interface from SAP also gives confidence in the data matching between the two systems," continued Adams. From a reporting perspective, Serco's leadership team also now has full visibility into a Reporting dashboard that allows them to drill-down into any account and identify risk on the balance sheet.

Looking ahead, Serco is looking to continue to expand its automation strategy to gain further efficiencies across their processes. "If it is a repeatable process, the benefits of having technology doing it is far superior to any human. Automation is vital for process efficiency and cost-effectiveness," concluded Adams.
