Balance's comments re customers are a distraction and reflect his bias.
Sure PLX may have been strongly linked to McD customers at one stage. But this will change as other clients grow and PLX's contracts evolve. Here's some pertinent comment from the just released AR.
The Company’s revenue from contracts with customers of $25.251m does not directly correlate to our user numbers. This is because over 87% of the Company’s revenue from contracts with customers is linked to contracts that were signed in 2014 with pricing mainly based on store numbers. Only a small percentage of FY20 revenue from contracts with customers is linked to consumer usage. In 2019, this pricing model was changed with new customer contracts being based on digital adoption, which will mean that as consumer usage grows so too will the Company’s revenue from contracts with customers.
From this we can deduce that future revenues will more accurately reflect customer and usage numbers. Plus with user numbers set to increase from 187mill to 500 mill, there will be increased benefits of scale.
Your assuming that McD's is happy to get its "pound of flesh' by screwing PLX's profit.
IMHO McD's will get their cake and eat it via PLX share price appreciation on their original investment - as PLX's profits grow.
But then what do I know I'm just a happy holder from .21c with a big portion happily 'free-hold."
Which part of PLX making a LOSS in the second half, with more costs - especially staff, to pile on in F2021 with the McD contract do you not get?
And well done to you - as happy as I am with my Serko shares at 29c too - but what about the ones sucked in by the self-confessed rampers on this stock & thread?
I believe the magnificent Serko also made a loss in their first half (pre the virus). Have they ever generated positive operating cash-flow? I understand Plexure has for the past 3 years. Growing cash balance, not shrinking.
Also, weren't you the guy who bought FBU? How's that going?
last fy they signed contracts with white castle and indo supermarket,we only see the SP pump up after annoucement then down again,and did not see the profit coming in report.
why plexure draw me attention becauae macdonald snapped 10% of their shares and they can get numerous contracts from macdonald worldwide,but i tried macdonald app in nz,beside the coupon,i did not see any breakthrough technology over there,i am still curious why so many ppl believe they can sign contract with another industry giant with decent profit in near future.
They have most of their technology deployed in Japan. Possibly the NZ contract doesn't require mobile order and pay and or geo fencing. Also, you're thinking purely from a front-end perspective. The data they glean from the backend is the key as it's super power for Mcd's in creating personalised marketing campaigns. The secret to their business is in the data they capture on purchases.

SaaS companies generally add staff/cost to attract new clients, not support existing ones. Unless the client is paying for those enhancements.
The CEO also said in an article with the Herald I read that their customers are doubling down on their efforts. I imagine this is giving PLX more business. Also he'll be making a forecast in a few weeks so let's see then.
They made it clear last year that FY20 and FY21 were going to be expansion years with 'investment impacting financial results'. Thus far they have delivered mostly with they're said, although I'd like to see more customers onboarded to reduce reliance on Mcd's.
Plx currently have 170m users and most of them are probably associated with McDonalds.I am a shareholder average buy in @ 32 c so I am very happy with the current share price. I sold half of my holding over the last few months. Best to take some profits. I am cautious and will continue to be cautious with this share until I see some decent revenue from non McDonalds customers. White Castle is a relative minnow. Indonesia is a possibility for decent growth in users. PLX has had a lot of difficulty in selling their services and I am puzzled by that as clearly McDonalds think it is very good and that in itself should be a good selling point.
