'Strong Fundamental
Performance in a booming industry and sector. Since the first
quarter of 2003, Caneum’s revenue has increased at a 77%
aggregate quarterly growth rate (650%+ year over year growth)'
Overview
Caneum, Inc. is a global provider of business
process and information technology outsourcing products and
services across vertical industries, including technology,
energy, government, transportation, financial services,
education and healthcare. The company provides a suite of
business strategy and planning capabilities to assist
companies with their "make versus buy" decisions in the areas
of data, network, product development, product maintenance and
customer support, and fulfills its services in-house, onshore,
near-shore and offshore, depending on the business goals and
objectives of its global customers. In parallel, Caneum is
opportunistically pursuing accretive acquisitions within its
core outsourcing product and service suite in order to broaden
its core capabilities, expand its customer base and supplement
its organic growth.
Investment Highlights
- Caneum is the 4th company created by a group of serial
entrepreneurs that have a track record of 100% liquidity
in 3 deals over 5 years for around $200M in shareholder
value. Previous transactions include companies that were
sold to Cisco Systems, Level 3 Communications and Internet
Security Systems.
- Caneum, Inc. announced that revenue for the July –
September 2005 quarter rose 355% from the prior year
period.
- The team has just completed its 10th quarter of record
sales and sequential quarterly growth, average quarterly
sequential growth was 77% per quarter.
- Larger companies are now comfortable with outsourcing
in general; mid-sized and small companies are increasingly
outsourcing to remain competitive. The small and mid cap
market is largely untapped.
- The company believes that Caneum business process and
information technology outsourcing service suite, combined
with a micro cap roll-up strategy utilizing its public
stock as currency, represents a timely and appropriate
vehicle to the streamline business processes and
operations of companies of all size while simultaneously
acquiring many successful private companies under a
publicly traded umbrella.
- The company believes that companies using the
outsourcing service suite be afforded the opportunity to
accomplish more with constrained internal resources and
budgets, but those companies choosing to sell their
businesses to Caneum will be able to provide their
shareholders a liquidity event for an exit while the
acquired company's management team will retain the
opportunity to continue to run and grow their companies.
- Caneum, Inc. announced that it has signed a contract
with DIRECTV Operations, LLC for IT-related services for
DIRECTV's enterprise platforms with an initial focus on
Enterprise Portal, CRM and Supply Chain Management
projects.
The Business Model
Caneum’s hybrid model differentiates from the
conventional model deployed by other off-shore outsourcing
firms. Developed on the experience of the management team in
many previous outsourcing engagements, Caneum’s model is
uniquely suited for cost efficient outsourcing solutions. In
order to mitigate some of the pitfalls of outsourcing, Caneum
takes a pragmatic approach labeled as its de-risked engagement
model. On a going-forward basis and in order to maximize
shareholder value, the business model parameters have been
clearly defined by management:
- Aggressively grow revenues via organic growth
and accretive acquisitions—diversify between BPO and ITO
- Optimize market sector positioning with
an emphasis on specialization and vertical market segment
focus
- Accelerate cash flow self sufficiency to become
operationally self sufficient in H1 2006
STRONG FUNDAMENTAL PERFORMANCE in a
booming industry and sector. Since the first quarter of 2003,
Caneum’s revenue has increased at a 77% aggregate quarterly
growth rate (650%+ year over year growth). A combination of
organic growth, driven by the strength of its business
pipeline should help drive top-line revenue growth while
reducing the company’s burn.
FUTURE SUCCESS WITH ACQUISITIONS is an
important component of the business model. Caneum’s healthy
current deal flow demonstrates management’s ability to
identify companies that both complete and enhance its product
and service offerings. Management also has prior success
integrating acquisitions.
UNIQUE BUSINESS MODEL. Caneum features
a unique and differentiated business model providing
best-of-breed services and solutions through hybrid teams of
on-site resources and offsite teams provided by its trusted
and proven partners. The company carefully segments its target
markets to focus on the most attractive and defensible markets
rather than commodity segments.
POTENTIAL FOR PRIVATE EQUITY RETURNS.
Given the industry dynamics and Caneum’s business model, an
investment in Caneum has the potential for private equity
returns with a degree of embedded security, safety and
liquidity associated with a publicly traded company.
THE TREND IS YOUR FRIEND. Strong
sequential and annual revenue growth among leading outsourcing
players, such as Cognizant (CYSH), Infosys (INFY), Satyam
(SAY) and Wipro (WIT), validate the enormous upside in
outsourcing IT services.
Industry
Tight capital markets and an extremely
challenging macroeconomic backdrop characterize the current
business climate, particularly for privately held micro cap
software and technology companies. Concurrently, more and more
companies of all size are looking to create incremental
operating leverage in their business models by exploiting the
opportunities and efficiencies afforded by outsourcing
non-core business processes and operations to enhance their
bottom lines.
As a result of these difficulties and the
accompanying market pressures for profitable growth, many
quality companies are faced with multiple operating dilemmas.
Large, medium and small companies alike are equally faced with
the proposition of choosing what is core to their business and
focusing exclusively on those items internally while
supplementing their incremental business needs with
outsourcing to meet those non-core business needs that remain
critical to their operational success.
In parallel, the privately held micro cap
software and technology companies are faced with the harsh
reality that while many of them have survived the economic
downturn and still remain profitable (or cash neutral), they
continue to suffer from limited financing options to grow and
fundamentally have no exit strategy in sight.
