Summary
- Crexendo, Inc. is experiencing double-digit organic growth in mostly recurring revenue with operating expenses to compress, suggesting huge operating leverage potential.
- The company has the best-in-class product offering in a rapidly expanding industry, with a pristine balance sheet and management that focuses on shareholder value.
- I put the fair value of Crexendo, Inc. shares at $10, but if the acquisition strategy works as expected, I'd raise this to $15.
Thesis
Crexendo, Inc. ( CXDO ) is experiencing double-digit organic growth in mostly recurring revenue. Operating expenses are likely to compress over the next couple of years. Crexendo has the best-in-class product offering in a rapidly expanding industry. It has a pristine balance sheet and a large pool of bite-sized accretive acquisition targets.
The management team is heavily invested and seems shareholder-value-focussed. Analyst estimates for revenue seem plausible if only considering organic growth. However, they don’t understand Crexendo’s operating leverage, leading to low earnings estimates. They also entirely ignore the M&A strategy. That ticks just about all the boxes that I can think of.
Based on my free cash flow ("FCF") model for pure organic growth, I could see the stock tripling within a few years. Factoring in their M&A strategy, a triple would be a disappointment.
