Brady is a research client of Edison Investment Research Limited

In H115, Brady signed two highly significant new contracts in its Commodities and Recycling divisions, while the Energy business unit continues to build momentum with six contracts signed. The company has also made a neat bolt-on in its Recycling unit, at a very attractive price. In light of falling commodity prices, Brady says it is not seeing any slowdown in its end markets, despite the economic backdrop. The group has 80% of FY15 revenues in the bag and a strong pipeline. Hence, we believe the stock looks attractive at c 12.5x our maintained cash-adjusted FY16 EPS.

Interim results: Greater H2 weighting than normal

Group revenue slipped by 6% on a constant-currency basis to £14.1m, while adjusted operating profit fell by 78% to £0.5m. However, this is largely due to timing factors and bookings are higher than expected. Nine new significant contracts were signed in H1, including one with a leading global commodity company and another with the world’s largest recycling company as part of a global deployment. The Energy unit, which largely operates a rental model, continued to show growth. Net cash declined by £3.4m to £6.2m, reflecting the timing of invoicing and the £1.5m dividend payment. Net cash recovered to £7.5m as at the end of July.

Acquisition of ScrapRunner

Brady has acquired ScrapRunner for c $2m (c £1.3m) on an asset basis. ScrapRunner provides GPS tracking systems, designed specifically for the scrap metal/recycling industry. The price is attractive at c 7x FY16e operating profit.

Forecasts: Maintained, 80% of FY15 revenues in bag

We expect ScrapRunner to add c £0.4m revenues in the final four months of FY15, rising to £1.5m in FY16, with operating margins of 20%. We are conservatively assuming that the benefits from ScrapRunner are neutralised by adverse FX movements, including the Norwegian krone, which has fallen by c 9% since January.

Valuation: Growth supported by strong balance sheet

Brady trades on c 12.5x our cash-adjusted FY16 EPS, 1.8x EV/sales and c 9.1x EV/EBITDA. In our view, the valuation continues to look attractive relative to the peer group and we note that all the other major E/CTRM players have changed hands in recent years, eg Triple Point was sold in 2013 for 5x sales.

Interim results: Licence wins and strong pipeline

Nine new licences were signed in H1, while seven new clients went live (the group has more than 300 clients and 10,000+ users). The new clients demonstrate a broad diversity of asset classes and geographies. Group revenue slipped by 10%, or 6% on a constant-currency basis, to £14.1m, with FX movements responsible for £0.5m of the reduction. Traditional licence revenues fell by 20% to £2.9m. This reflects £0.2m backlog revenue recognised in the current period compared with £1.9m in the corresponding period, and also as revenue relating to H1 licence wins will largely be recognised in H2. Recurring fees (software rental, support and hosting services) eased by 2% to £7.8m, which continues to reflect the impact of the weak Norwegian krone on the Brady Energy software rental book. On a constant-currency basis, recurring fees grew by 2%, representing 55% of the group total, up from 51% a year earlier. Services revenues slipped by 16% (down 11% at constant currencies) to £3.4m, but the group expects a busy H2, as the new contracts are implemented.

Revenues in EMEA rose by 7% to £10.2m, largely reflecting the renewed momentum in the Energy business. Revenues in the Americas slipped 18% to £3.4m, though Brady is buoyant about the opportunities in the Americas in the Recycling and Commodities areas. Revenues in Asia dipped by 75% (£0.5m), although we note that the group has a strong pipeline in the Asia region. The gross margin improved from 64% to 65%, while operating costs rose by 13% to £8.7m, reflecting increased investment in marketing. Hence, the adjusted operating profit slipped by 79% to £0.5m, as the group operating margin fell to 3.4%.

Divisional analysis: Brady Energy continues to rebuild momentum

Brady signed two particularly substantial deals with high-quality names, including one of the world’s largest commodity traders and the world’s leading metals recycling company. However, adjusted EBITDA (Edison definition, Exhibit 2) dipped by 79% to £0.8m, mainly since the group did not benefit as much from backlog revenue as it did in H114. We note that revenue recognition occurs on practical acceptance from the client, which can vary in time and adds to the lumpiness of traditional licencing deals.

Commodities this unit was formed through the merger of the group’s UK-based Metals business with its Geneva-based Physicals (mainly soft commodities) unit in 2013. Revenues dipped 14% (15% on constant currency basis) to £6.1m, while the contribution fell by 43% to £1.6m, to give a contribution margin of 27% (H114: 41%). The highlight was signing a leading global commodity company, which Brady won in conjunction with a major systems integrator. A significant slice of the licence component of the deal was recognised in H1, while the service component will be recognised in H2 and beyond. Brady’s solution will be used to support the organisation’s global trading and risk management of its physical and derivatives operations for its refined metals and concentrates businesses, in its worldwide locations across four continents. Brady won the contract in a competitive tender against one of the world’s top two commodity software suppliers. It succeeded as a result of the significant investment it has put into its CTRM product over the last two years – the group’s multi-commodity physical trading solution now handles refined ferrous, non-ferrous and precious metals, as well as concentrates, scrap and recycled metals. Separately, Hedge Manager, a cloud-based solution designed specifically for risk management in today's volatile commodity markets, went live with a major European aluminium producer.

Brady Energy – this unit’s customer base is predominantly Nordic utility companies that use the software for trading and hedging their electricity exposure, as well as other business processes. There is no exposure to petroleum and the business unit has been extending its customer base across Europe and into Africa. The business model in the Energy business unit is largely rental. Revenues slipped 7%, but rose 7% on a constant currency basis, to €. 5.6m, while the contribution margin jumped by 410bp to 16.8%. Six new contracts were signed in H1, including four new clients, and two migrations from legacy applications. A major regulatory change in the Nordic power market – Nordic Imbalance Settlement (NBS), will require the harmonisation of systems across the three Nordic countries. This provides a good near-term growth driver and Brady is developing the functionality for NBS with 24 clients participating in a beta project. There has been significant investment in functionality for the gas market through the delivery of additional product functionality for a major asset-backed trading client in Continental Europe. The division continues to advance its adoption of new technology, with both extensions to a web portal developed last year and deployed at a number of clients, and a new data warehouse module to provide additional and easily accessible data for management and/or web reporting.

Brady Recycling – revenues slipped 3%, or 11% on a constant currency basis, to £2.4m. The licence component of the contract win with Sims Metal Management has been included in the H1 numbers, while significant services revenues are expected in H2. In July, it was announced that Sims, the world’s largest recycling company, had selected Brady to further support the management of its global recycling operations. The roll-out begins in Australia, where a previous version of Brady’s software is being upgraded, and is likely to lead to the first sale of Brady Recycling software outside Brady Recycling’s core North American/Australasian regions. This decision fits with Sims global strategy to consolidate operations onto a single platform, to provide better visibility, optimize efficiencies and facilitate decision making across the Sims group, The Brady solution, backed by its team of experts in the recycling space, will assist and support its key strategic goals; to streamline, optimise and grow. Through the implementation of a global solution, Sims will benefit from having enterprise-wide visibility, timely actionable financial reporting, efficient management of positions and opportunities across the group, along with standardised operational and audit controls. On the development front, a mobile (PDA) based hand-held inspection device went live, with the aim to target over 1,000 client sites.

Acquisition of ScrapRunner

Brady has acquired ScrapRunner for c $2m (c £1.3m) on an asset basis, involving a $1.8m initial payment, $100k after one year and $100k after two years. ScrapRunner provides GPS tracking systems designed specifically for the scrap metal/recycling industry. Based in Jacksonville, Florida, ScrapRunner has six employees. Brady Recycling had partnered with ScrapRunner over a number of years, so it knows the business well. ScrapRunner generated revenue of $2m in FY14, of which 62% was recurring, with an operating profit of $694k (c 30% margin), indicating a price of less than 3x historical operating profit. However, Brady intends to invest significantly in marketing, which will pull margins back significantly in the short run. The aim is to market the product more aggressively with the c 1,600 recycling companies in North America, and creates an excellent cross-selling opportunity for Brady, enhancing its offerings, enabling it to sell larger deals. Historically, ScrapRunner operated a traditional licencing model, but it is now shifting to a SaaS model. While this is relatively small acquisition, it highlights the potential to create value through acquisitions.

Outlook: Bookings ahead of plan and several deals at advanced stage

While H1 numbers were below target, this related to timing issues and H1 sales were good in light of market conditions, with bookings ahead of plan. Overall, the group has 80% of FY15 revenues in the bag, meaning it needs to find c £6m of new business in H2 to make up the difference. The group has a strong pipeline, and several significant new licence opportunities are at an advanced stage. As is typical with an enterprise software vendor, Brady normally has a high level of activity in Q4, including from customers using their budgets to purchase additional licences. Also, given the high development spend in recent years, the group has more off-the-shelf software, which does not require further development, and can be sold with 30-day customer acceptance. Hence, sales of this software has faster revenue recognition.

While some customers in the commodities sector clearly are suffering from lower commodity prices, Brady is not seeing any significant slowdown in its markets. These businesses have a continued need to invest and maintain their IT systems. Further, while falling commodities prices hurt producers, they are beneficial to traders and manufacturers who also purchase the group’s software. Additionally, falling commodity prices can force producers to drive through efficiencies, which can involve them upgrading or replacing their in-house software with Brady’s software.

Forecasts: P&L maintained

We expect ScrapRunner to add c £0.4m revenues in the final four months of FY15, rising to £1.5m in FY16, with operating margins of 20%. We are conservatively assuming that the benefits from ScrapRunner are neutralised by FX movements, including the Norwegian krone, which has fallen by c 9% since January. Hence we are maintaining our P&L forecasts. We have added the $2m cost of ScrapRunner to the balance sheet, and amended for equity issuance and the dividend payment. We now forecast the group to end FY15 with net cash of £11.2m (previously £11.6m) which rises to £14.1m (£14.6m) a year later.

Valuation: Unique asset, peer M&A continues

The major commodity software sector deals executed at high EV/sales multiples in late 2011 and mid-2013 remain a focal point. These deals highlight the popularity of the commodity software space, particularly from private equity, and Brady remains the only quoted asset in the sector. Though we note that FIS is acquiring SunGard, which has a relatively small exposure to commodities, relative to its size.

Brady has been signing and delivering significantly larger licence agreements and expanding its customer base of high-quality, blue-chip names. This provides strong references, and creates the momentum for further deals. Having already signed a $5m contract, Brady expects deal sizes to continue to rise, with a $10m deal achievable within the next few years.

We highlight the following points on the group’s valuation:

Traditional P/E valuation – the stock trades on 15.1x our FY15 earnings forecasts, falling to 14.4x in FY16. These multiples are well below Brady’s peers (see Exhibit 6). Nevertheless, these figures are also affected by the cash balances currently subject to low interest rates. Adjusted for the net cash (adjusted for outstanding acquisition liabilities and cash flow seasonality), we estimate the ratings are 13.6x and 12.5x respectively.

Cash flow – operating cash flow jumped to record levels in FY14, but cash flows are traditionally weaker in H1, exacerbated by the annual dividend payment. We forecast £3.6m free cash flow in FY15 rising to £4.6m in FY16, providing free cash flow yields of 4.8% and 6.0% respectively.

Source: Bloomberg, Edison Investment Research. Note: We have used Edison forecasts for Brady and StatPro and Bloomberg consensus data for the other companies. Prices as at 16 September 2015.

Sector M&A – all of the group’s key competitors, apart from SunGard, were involved in sector deals in 2011, with Openlink acquired by Hellman & Friedman, Solarc purchased by Openlink and Triple Point acquired by Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe. The suggestion from the market was that these deals were transacted at multiples in the region of 3.3-4.6x sales. Triple Point was acquired again in mid-2013 by ION for $900m, or 5x FY12 sales and 15x operating income. ION also acquired FFastFill, an AIM-quoted derivative trading software-as-a-service (SaaS) company in February 2013, for c £98m or c 3.8x FY14 sales, c 26x operating profits and c 25x earnings. These deals make Brady, trading on 1.8x FY16e revenues, look undervalued. In August 2015, it was announced that FIS would acquire SunGard for $9.1bn (enterprise value), which we estimate values SunGard at c 3.3x FY14 revenues and c 12x EBITDA. Separately, India-based EKA Software Solutions received a significant investment from Silver Lake Partners in October 2013.

Acquisitions – further deals could create additional value for shareholders if Brady is able to cross-sell the acquired applications to its existing customer base.
