A bit more serious interest today. Someone gobbling everything up at 60 cents

Ggcc
20-07-2023, 01:37 PM
Just over 12% up since I announced it last week. Anyone would have made that in one week had they purchased and intend to sell today at 61 cents. No term deposit pays that. Right now it might be a bit late for 12% gains in one week unless they pull something big out of the bag on Monday. Who knows……

There is another Aussie tech company called DUG, it turn its balance sheet around, went from a bit of debt, turn around to low debt, then now net cash and winning more and more clients, it just been award 5m freebie money from WA government to build a new data centre

5 baggers from its low and it still keep going and going, it a relentless march the day it turn its balance sheet around

With the primary listing on ASX, I think they're obliged to give quarterly updates, an Appendix 4c, due from 31 July within one month thereafter https://www.asx.com.au/documents/rules/Chapter04.pdf, so maybe some guidance tomorrow at the ASM?

I'm not exactly sure, so don't take my word on this.

In any event, the ASM will likely be the usual retrospective on FY23, which was pretty bloody awesome but we already know that, SP up 300% from its lows recognising the successful merger, turnaround and return to profit.

It would be nice to have some insights into how the first quarter is going, and initial FY24 guidance would be a bonus.

Different set of business but SKO has plenty of cash in the kitty, for the last 5 years they are on the ball, they said what they going to do and they achieved every major milestone.
80m in the kitty, another year of cash burn in development bring it to 50-60m level before they are profitable and cash flow positive.

by the time they are in the black they have 50m in the kitty and SKO has much more leverage earning model, once the development is done and bed it down and once achieved neutral cost based,

Great to re-cap on the FY23 results which were truely outstanding, signalling the turnaround success and return to profit. The Board and management expressed confidence (like when are they ever not confident) but they came across as both relieved it's working out, and optimistic for the future, and they have a massive vested interest in the Houden family majority holding and other directors shareholdings, plus the new resolution on Dan and Dean's entitlements.

Nice that they acknowledged the huge contribution of Plexure and McD (vs TASK revenue) to the revenue line, but also alluded to the key customer risk that goes with that. Signing up McD's for another 4+ years, profitably, is huge. Also intrigued that at least two questions were about their competitors, and their answers unwittingly acknowledged how difficult it might be winning big new business. Customers are "sticky", ergo it's hard to win a new big customer, but also easier to retain the customers they've got.

No lollies dished out though, no guidance, no new customers, but admittedly they had a big agenda to get through and all resolutions passed. (Gee there's some seriously dumb questions, it's almost embarrassing hearing them). The only resolution I didn't support was the move to ASX. I don't think it is necessary after already having the primary listing on ASX. Anyway, that's a done deal now, pending IRS decision, as that resolution passed. I'm going to have to have a talk with my tax advisor as I'll be well over the $50k FIF tax threshold.

Good to see the SP hold and up a couple of pips, but there's a lot more sell side than buy side (on NZX). Patiently waiting for guidance and some good new customer news. I feel comfortable with my holding and confident that these new Oz owners and director/manager are very focused on running and growing a profitable business.

They are exempt when they start paying franked dividends I believe. That is only for Australia.

They need to have a franking account to qualify, they do not need to be paying dividends.
If they become an Oz Tax resident company they will have a franking account.

Yeah you're quite right in general,

So I originally bought VML back in either 2015 or 2016 at from memory around 35c, then it went to 13c and I sold a long time later perhaps in 2018 or 2019 for 87c and stopped following it.

I recently became interested again due to reasons that Baa_Baa has highlighted very well (at the time I had not read this thread) but admit far more speculative than what I am normally doing, but cash rolling in is cash rolling in. So I do own and bought at an average of 42.3c and have a decent sized holding considering the nature of the company.

Another example of a similar type of 'story', ASX MAD which I bought at 90c and just sold the last of somewhere in the low $5's - it was growing like a weed and selling at 10 x earnings with a whole lot of other stuff to like, I am much less sure of TSK, probably because I don't understand it as well.

I will hold and am along for the ride, agree with BaaBaas thesis here.

It's a technology thing, the TASK API (applications programming interface "is a way for two or more computer programs to communicate with each other"), enables TASK's customer 'brands' menu's to be displayed in the Uber Eats App, and an order can be placed and paid for, via that App back to the store. The Uber driver picks up the order from the store and delivers it.

The other API's for online ordering are Jamaica Blue Cafe's and for delivery Deliveroo (who I think has shut shop and left Australia). The XERO api is for back-end finance accounting, and the last one is PowerBI for visual data reporting.

The Report looks fine to me but the market didn't like it. Can someone please give me an idea why? Did the market price in an expectation of a new big customer? Lots more sales from existing customers? reduction in operating expeses? or what?

Who knows...

The 'receipts from customers' number is not revenue for the period, which will go far over a lot of heads. So we don't have any idea what revenue was.

The quarterly is just a cashflow statement, there’s no underlying value that is or needs to be accounted for.

Very encouraging to learn though that new customers and market expansion is happening, they don’t have to mention that in a quarterly. But they did.

I never said receipts from customers was revenue for the period …for many reasons eh

But one might expect if revenues were increasing that receipts would also be growing …..not one to one but at least positive.

We’ll have to see whether the words/story convert into revenue growth/value

For an owner, you're still very cynical, and interestingly quite defensive. I can only guess you got sucked into a much higher average SP and are still suffering an uncomfortable recovery from a paper loss position? Average down, it won't last forever and eases some of the pain.

There is nothing not to like about TASK now, it might be coming off the back foot with Plexure, but if you're onto it, Plexure is funding the business now and no quarterly cashflow statement will ever give you or anyone else confidence about underlying or ongoing value.

And they disclosed that it is the market Plexure has, that have the most promise (Asia especially) although the USA looks promising as well (TASK QSR). Funny that, that Plexure's market is what they say has the growth potential. I reckon it's code words for, 'when we signed up McD's, we also got a look into expanding market share, and it's happening now'.

To be honest, TASK by itself is interesting and has encouraging opportunity to grow, especially the USA, but it's small beer by customer, as opposed to Plexure which has McD's which they say is expanding.

Keep up, if you're done with buying you just hold and ride it out, but if you have some headroom to get some more, days like these when the minnows freak out about something they don't understand, well ... isn't that time get a few more?

The market expected a lot of solid hard hitting financials about high growth and big profits, but in todays update there wasn't much financials to go on. Likely modest growth and modest profits, so nothing to rave home about yet, because the reality is that they haven't actually set the foundations for international growth beyond NZ and AUS and their Mcdonalds contracts internationally.

The main point of the update is that this quarter was about setting the foundation for growth later, right now its about capital spending and a mass hiring spree. Second quarter probably be quite modest too with a possible bonus they might pick up a decent size company for the Task division in North America, but I would say most of the growth starts back up in the second half of the financial year when bigger Task division contracts are announced follow with added Plexure customers in the Asia region.

I'm fully in favour of staff, especially senior leaders, being granted performance rights. The whole purpose of it is to incentivise performance and it provides a direct linkage to the share price. So assuming the incentive works and they perform and the company grows and the share price with it, then ~0.25% dilution imo is a small price to pay.

its a real risk to destroying shareholder value and is only justified by large growth.

Yeah fair enough, I'm not trying to diminish people concerns if they have them. Personally though, 8% of potential market cap, being if they are vested and typically a lot of these rights are not, is not a concern to me.

If I own a company and can avoid paying cash bonuses and incentives to my staff which come straight off the bottom line, by providing performance rights to a share of my company, then I'd choose performance rights every day. It helps also that the incentive is aligned with the company performance (ergo share price), rather than just individual performance.

It seems that we are strongly agreeing, again, lol!

Cash payments, usually annually, (for incentives and bonuses) are a burden on EPS for shareholders as it reduces profitability because the cash payment comes off the bottom line profits.

And frankly, cash bonuses and incentives against a personnel performance plan are very difficult to align to company performance, as they are usually solely about individual performance.

Performance rights, imo are a much more sensible approach to aligning personnel performance to company goals and outcomes, especially when those are linked to increasing revenue and profitability.

We should acknowledge, albeit uncomfortable, that shareholder EPS is woefully dismal hence PE is stratospheric. Hopefully that will change as we move to sustained profitability.

Update on Migration of Incorporation to Australia and Delisting from NZX
Sydney, Australia – TASK Group Holdings Limited (TASK or the Company) announces that it has successfully completed its registration as an Australian public company with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, effective 18 September 2023. The Company is now registered under the Australian Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) with Australian Company Number (ACN): 605 696 820 and is deemed removed from the New Zealand companies register.

The Company previously announced its intention to migrate its incorporation to Australia and, in due course, de-list from the NZX (so that its sole listing is on the ASX), when it released its full year results on 30 May 2023.

Migration of the Company’s incorporation to Australia, approved by shareholders at the Company’s Annual General Meeting on 24 July 2023, will simplify the corporate structure and administration of the Company and clarify the tax residency of the Company. Furthermore, consolidation of the Company’s shares on the ASX would reduce listing costs.

I am still happy accumulating and am wondering when it will bounce as HY figure is coming up and we will all get a better understanding of how they are doing.

Very Disappointing, another Share Dilution today, yay... :t_down:

How companies treat STI/LTI share issue expenses is a bit of a pet peeve of mine.

They are totally 'real' expenses even if they are non cash and always irritates me when management remove them from reported or underlying EBITDA/EBIT/NPAT/whatever. If they didn't have these share schemes, they'd probably have to remunerate staff by that incremental amount to stay.

But the rub comes when the performance rights / options or whatever are vested/exercised, and the number of shares increases. A double whammy on EPS, as you incur the P&L cost which reduces NPAT, and increase the number of shares, which overtime decreases EPS more than just paying more in the form of cold hard cash.

Not a comment directed at Task but just generally. And I'm not against them and understand the benefits of saving cash when a company is in cash burn mode or is capital intensive, and the alignment it brings. but more just a comment on how companies present their earnings and the impact on EPS which never gets recognised by the mgmt teams or analysts.

Agree, there's next to no volume on ASX and judging by HC there's even (way) less knowledge of the company. But we're going there, to the ASX, whether we like it or not.

The fundamentals have improved massively since the reverse takeover, they suggest that a few insto's might want to sniff around at this very low SP.

Did you know Plexure are processing over 330 million global customers (users) on their platform? That's amazing for a former NZ growth company to have made these inroads into a key supplier to a global, growing the McD's base who still own, if I'm not mistaken, a 5.76% share (down from around 9%).

Anyway, hopefully the ASX market gives this a kick up the pants and values it more appropriately than the NZX which got locked into some doldrums.

Onwards, the future is ahead of us, the history no one cares much about.

Being solely listed on ASX is not as exciting as when Plexure announced the dual listing in 2020

The dual listing would see the Aussies who understood tech companies better than kiwis drive the Plexure price from about 150 to over $2 …valuing PLX as it should be valued

Don’t think it worked out that way.

Maybe the Aussies remember that!

Basically they’re still a family business with a history of making profits, they just got paid a lot to take over Plexure as well. The payments business acquisition was a really good move and will start to show on the top line. I have every confidence that any future acquisitions will be earnings accretive.

Leaky ship, LOL you, spend too much time reading the numpties on Hotcopper mate, everything they miss is a leaky ship, LOL?. It's all already been announced, just waiting for a bit more detail at the HY. You onboard already, or missed the run up so far?

TSK/PLX/VML, they've all had a history of very big bolting moves upwards on news, and a slow erosion on no news, until the next news! Ideal traders stock, but need to be in before the news or at the news, or end up chasing it upwards, or worse, getting caught near or at the top and selling at a loss later, or holding at a loss until the next news.

Thing is at the moment with the move to ASX primary listing and delist from NZX, the ASX spread on bid/ask, it's next to illiquid so the wide spread is forcing quite large moves on low volumes in SP for anyone who wants in. The Ask is shallow as well, only going to 0.60 last time I looked.

I expect that will open up a bit, maybe a lot, as the word gets out about this successful company turnaround/takeover. Just McD's they're serving over 330 million users worldwide, pretty impressive for an ex-NZ company, and still expanding.

Aussies might be waking up to their 'local' success story, $30m in the bank on a $150-$170 market cap, new customers in the USA (exciting), expansion of McD's into SE Asia, and a few customer implementations underway. Profitable as well, quite the turnaround from a year ago.

Easy to miss the 'get onboard' call, but if SP history continues to play out, there's still some time before the HY, otherwise you'll probably get another bite of the cherry leading into the full year six months from now, albeit probably at a premium to todays price.

There is no 'price transfer' per se, the listing on ASX was already active, the closing price on NZX on the day of its delisting has no bearing on the ASX listed price.

The closing SP of TASK on the day of sole listing on the ASX is the 'starting price' for your portfolio. NZX and ASX prices are not connected in any way.

Yep, eagerly awaiting the update. The ASX sole listing is early days, folks need to know that, for example, today traded under $18k total and the price swing was 3.5 cents 7.7% down. Ridiculous, it's being moved by minnows with a few 100 or 1000 to spend/sell, there's no instos or large holders participating in this market charade.

Like for example, 20 shares ($9) dropped it to $45.5, then 100 shares ($44) dropped it to $44. It closes after that on $42 with less than $7,500 traded.

It's a circus, hopefully TASK wake up to this (the real owners have 37% or so which is rapidly declining in value on market) and get off their butts and promo to the instos that we have a successfully profitable Australian company here (cough), that is massively underpriced.

Might have to move to Hotcopper to punt this, we're not making a dent in it from NZ anymore.

That was probably the problem to begin with, they kept mentioning the word profit and built up expectations there would be a decent profit, which attracts the wrong intentions or the wrong type of investors. Second half is generally stronger due to seasonality so they should produce a small profit then. Part of the legacy problems with the company is that is always been about growth at the expense of everything else, the market wanted to see a profit to know that things had changed.

Yes but that was before the renegotiation of the McD contract. And before Houden flashed us with how profitable this business can be. Then it re-rated back up.

At one stage it was looking very bad

Just all your commentary about the already large position and unwilling to add and portfolio police etc...

I personally wouldn't go more than 5% of net worth on something like this but if you're less than 10% your comments don't make sense to me.

What I'm saying in that anything less than 10% can't really be called bucket loads.

Percentages of stock portfolio only are very nonsensical, so if it was 50% of your stock portfolio but 5% of net worth then no point calling it a big position as its not.

Wrong way to look at it.

If you have a freehold house you can do as you please with a 500 to a million $ stock portfolio... You have something to fall back on...

My point being, if you have a freehold 800k house then a 200k position in a 400k portfolio is a yawn.

If you don't, and you have a 200k position in a 400k portfolio thus 50% of net worth... You can post about your massive size.

I'm not conflating net worth with 'portfolio' of stocks held. TSK is a largish % of shares portfolio, and a much smaller % of net worth.

Appreciate your concern about the portfolio %, but it's been that way for awhile and I don't sell stocks very often, especially ones that the market disagrees with me, but that I have a lot more patience for.

I'm not going to delve into this anymore, I have a sizeable position in TSK, relative to portfolio of shares, and no plan to sell, with no immediate intention of increasing either at this point, although if it goes much lower from here I might get another trailer load, and am very happy with the progress of the company.

You're way better off just having fat stacks of cash and getting a nice air B&B for Xmas that your family actually want to visit.

To get another trailer load, you first need a trailer load.

Probably, but now that its ASX sole listing, it won't go anywhere unless the insto's get onto it. Have you seen the ASX volumes? Bloody ridiculous, a few $100, or even $10, can up or down the share price by 3-4 cents and the volume is pitiful.

Ok, you on the rum again? Why would you be concerned about my position? I've been about as transparent as I can be without disclosing actual numbers. It's not chicken feed for me, anything with six figures is not chicken feed, but it's not relative to net worth, and I can't see why it would be important at all to you.

No, I've had a bit of Dak but that's all.

Just saying, I have well over 5% of net worth in stellantis for example.

I would never ever post about that position being a trailer load or bucket full as it's not.

It matters to me as I value your analysis and opinion greatly and I was lead to believe that you had a sizeable position by
some of the phrases you used. But in my language you don't, so now when I read your commentary on TSK it has different context to me.

If I have a net worth of 10 million and TSK is 100% of my stock portfolio at 500k...

It's chicken feed and I cannot post about it being a trailer load.

Everything is RELATIVE. Not absolute.

100k to some is massive to others nothing.

Good spotting GWD, it's breaking news. The key thing is that this is all about enhancing their existing apps (supplied by who?).

"McDonald’s will be harnessing Google’s technology to roll out significant advancements to its 150 million member-strong mobile app and thousands of its self-service restaurant kiosks."

It's all over the tech and QSR media.

Yes! Quite a bold move, "Meanwhile, the fast food giant plans to open about 10,000 McDonald's sites globally by 2027, with many in China. The expansion would boost the number of its stores to about 50,000." Just one of many articles https://www.bbc.com/news/business-67644926
Who is McDonald's strategic partner (for the next four years at least) for QSR tech, Mobile App, in house Kiosk, ordering, and soon .. Pay? Much to look forward to.

Unbelievable really, that we have the largest QSR in the world as our customer, yes, the whole world, as our key customer, and they own a decent chuck of the company as well. Yet we're still a market cap minnow, even now ASX sole listed. The market will wake up eventually.

TSK is so underpriced it's ridiculous, but good for SP entry or top up. Easy to miss the move that's coming, imho.
